OnePlus 2 Unboxing

My personal phone has been the OnePlus One for nearly a year and I've liked it a great deal. In terms of performance, screen, storage and price, it's hard to beat. I was never a great fan of the styling, particularly regarding the flat metal trim round the screen, so when I saw the OnePlus 2 had really upped the

Creative Sound Blaster Roar Review

While everyone's eyes have been on drones, portable Bluetooth speakers have been the sleeper hit of the past few years. From low-fi to hi-fi and prices to match, there's a speaker for everyone.

Power Support Anti-Glare Film Set for iPhone 6 Plus Review

The latter is perhaps not a great trick on its own but when paired with Archos' new Fusion storage, it's a smartphone with masses of space. Let's take

Booq Taipan Shock Backpack Review

The Booq Taipan Shock is a lightweight laptop backpack for devices with screens up to 16", designed to store the laptop safely in a padded section, placing all the accoutrements of mobile life in other pockets and compartments. As can be seen in the photos, it's a relatively big backpack at 46 × 33 × 21 cm giving it a large

Divoom Airbeat-10 Bluetooth Speaker Review

It's rare that products sent for review offer any great surprises: usually gadgets arriving on my desk meet my expectations in terms of build, functionality and price. However, occasionally a device delivers more than expected and I'm pleased to say that this is one such occasion. The Divoom Airbeat-10 punches well above its weight with loudness and clarity that belies
