OnePlus Buds Pro Review: YOUR Best Buds?

OnePlus Buds Pro review!

OnePlus has a solid track record on audio, and I’ve had consistently good experiences with OnePlus earbuds. The Buds Pro arrive in a crazy competitive market for Bluetooth audio. You need more than “good audio quality” to standout in this lineup.

OnePlus brings some interesting and novel features, but one codec issue might hamper the fun for OnePlus phone owners…

Let’s discuss… Continue reading “OnePlus Buds Pro Review: YOUR Best Buds?”

Poco M4 Pro Review!

Poco proudly flies the “flagship killer” banner, delivering phones that offer an incredible bang for buck. The new M4 Pro is in the GadgetLab, and taking it for a test drive, this is brutal competition. Standing out from the crowd is a challenge though.

Pixel 6 Pro Two Week Review: Just the beginning…

Pixel 6 Pro REVIEW!

This phone is an incredible fresh start for Google. New design. New OS. New UI. New Camera. New SOC. There’s no part of this phone which feels like a holdover from the last generation of Pixel phones.

That brings some teething pains, but the launch has been surprisingly smooth. We can absolutely discuss some pros and cons, but we should also hit ALL phones with the same early reviewer energy, right?

Allow me to play apologist for some early bugs, because I like where this might be going… Continue reading “Pixel 6 Pro Two Week Review: Just the beginning…”

Edifier NeoBuds Pro: Even better with LDAC!

Neobuds Pro Review! Now they have LDAC!

The true wireless market is crazy competitive. We want good solutions for EVERYONE! Different sizes. Different features. Different tuning. It’s even more exciting when we see brands really live up to their promises on updating software and adding features.

Let’s take these for a spin… Continue reading “Edifier NeoBuds Pro: Even better with LDAC!”

Microsoft Surface Duo 2 By The Benchmarks: Getting More Done FASTER!

This thing is NO JOKE.

There’s a bit of a gap in AndroidLand.

Android TABLETS are often positioned as inexpensive media consumption devices. If you want a powerful slate, the market points you to either a GalaxyTab, or some other option like a Windows/ChomeOS/iPad.

Handling a Duo 2, it’s refreshing to use a multi-tasking slate, that is also a current-gen powerhouse computer.  While it can be a bit clumsy at times as a phone, there’s a satisfying idea of “doing more” while on the go. This is where we get to see how this radically thin folding slab stacks up to the competition.

Here’s the Surface Duo 2 by the benchmarks! Continue reading “Microsoft Surface Duo 2 By The Benchmarks: Getting More Done FASTER!”

Sony XPERIA Pro-I Camera: Why is this SO good?

While I wrap up shooting samples for a more in depth camera look at the Pro-I, and some upcoming comparisons, I wanted to take a couple minutes to chat about camera design. A camera is more complicated than just a shutter button on a screen.

Sony shows a LOT of thought can go into helping a user produce better content. Continue reading “Sony XPERIA Pro-I Camera: Why is this SO good?”
