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!
I enjoyed my time with the Mixcder E9 last year, an affordable option for wireless audio with ANC. My wife REALLY liked the bang for buck and stole them shortly after my review.
New for 2020 is a refresh for the design, and some improved tech specs, but also a slightly higher price tag. Let’s take a quick listen to the Mixcder E10!

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.
A TON of marketing has gone into this device. Apple’s claims are a step above the standard “aspirational” marketing of iPhone’s past.
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?”
A US appeals court refuses to rehear the case against the FCC’s repeal of Net Neutrality. More companies are pulling out of MWC. The iPhone 11 might be producing more RF radiation than advertised. Motorola defends the RAZR’s durability. The Z Flip shows up at the Oscars.
And let’s dig into a few leaked images of the LG V60!

BLON BL-03 Review!
We’re in a low cost earbud renaissance! The BLON have been getting enthusiastic reviews for their gorgeous design and single driver tuning. Taking the BL-03 for a spin, should we but the hype?
Let’s give them a listen! Continue reading “BLON BL-03 Review: $30 Earbuds, Should we believe the hype?”
You set the volume to “half” on your phone and it’s WAY too loud. You “cranked” the volume to the max, but it’s still too quiet. There might not be anything wrong with your ears!
Setting a safe volume for your headphones is a really good habit to get into.
There’s just one SMALL issue.
There is no universal agreement on how “loud” headphones get when plugged into different devices. Laptops, Desktops, Phones, Tablets, DAPs, if you “set the volume to half”, you still might be listening too loud.
Here’s a quick break down on what influences the volume on your headphones! Continue reading “Setting a Safe Volume for Your Headphones (Can Be Tricky)”
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. Continue reading “Blackberry leaves the smartphone market (again): Some rambling thoughts on how we review gadgets…”
The FCC has concluded carriers illegally sold your data, but they probably won’t do much to punish them. The EU overwhelmingly votes in favor of a universal phone charger. Law enforcement can easily crack most iPhones, but the GOP still wants to end encryption for consumers. Folks are going deaf at a shocking rate, but little is being done to help people protect their hearing.
The Moto RAZR is too fragile to be displayed at Wal-Mart. The Samsung Z Flip leaks ahead of its press event.
And we say goodbye to Blackberry phones. Again.
Let’s get our tech week started off right!
