LG V60 First Impressions!
Launching early this year, leapfrogging the G9. LG is showing off a monster truck of a phone.

Bluetooth Headphones with ANC: More fashion bang for your buck? from SomeGadgetGuy on www.twitch.tv
Good Bluetooth headphones, WITH noise cancellation, don’t need to break the bank!

Four months after launch, we’ve gotten some software updates.
Expectations are SUPER high for this phone. Not only because it’s the most expensive 4G phone of 2019, but also because Apple’s done something bold here. Joining the Mac, MacBook, and iPad, there’s now a “PRO” version of the iPhone.

Does it live up to the “PRO” label? Let’s take a look! Continue reading “iPhone 11 Pro Max Review: Worthy of a “PRO” Label?”

Setting a safe volume for your headphones is a really good habit to get into.

Blackberry is ending their partnership with TCL.
No new Blackberry devices will produced or licensed. I took this news harder that I was expecting. My main goal in any tech conversation is to find better competition.
Our gadgets are only fun and exciting when we have good options. The smartphone market got a little smaller today. I felt this was a good time to share some thoughts on tech reviewing and gadget fandom.
