Brodit ProClip in car holder for the HTC Incredible S – Video

Matt — Fri, 29 Apr 2011 18:51:19 +0000

The nice chaps at DSL Developments kindly sent over a Brodit ProClip for us to test out this week. As I have just recently finished the HTC Incredible S review I thought that device may be a good one to test with a ProClip so that was the one I chose.

There are thousands of different sorts of in car phone holders and from experience the cheapest is never the best. The Brodit ProClip holders are not only made for your specific phone but also tailored for which car you drive. So you need two parts, the car mount and the actual phone holder.

Logic3 i-Station Podium unboxing video

Matt — Sun, 27 Feb 2011 08:16:06 +0000

There are quite literally hundreds of speaker docks available for iPod’s and iPhone’s but as yet there are very few docks available for the iPad. Whilst I’m sure that everyone will soon catch up and bring out their own models, Logic3 have been one of the first to market with their i-Station Podium product.

The i-Station is an amplified 2-speaker stand with power and volume controls on the unit itself. The nice thing about this is that you can use it in either portrait or landscape mode thanks to a swivel in the back.

Parrot MiniKit Smart unboxing video

Matt — Thu, 24 Feb 2011 08:14:36 +0000

Parrot announced the MiniKit Smart back in November of last year and one has eventually found its way to us for a review. I am rather partial to a Bluetooth car kit as I spend hours each day in my car and often conduct business over the telephone which means I need a quality piece of hardware to suit my needs.

Boxwave Keyboard Buddy iPhone 4 Case unboxing video

Matt — Wed, 09 Feb 2011 07:56:44 +0000

There are lots of Bluetooth keyboards out there that will work with the iPhone and literally thousands of iPhone cases, however, the Boxwave Keyboard Buddy is different in that it combines the two and turns the iPhone 4 in to a sliding QWERTY-keyboarded device.

The design is pretty neat, the front portion has a clip-on case similar to many other iPhone cases but then there’s the spring loaded sliding keyboard mechanism on the back. The keyboard works over Bluetooth and has it’s own battery and power control. It also has a claimed 45 day battery life which sounds awesome.

You’ve gotta love the innovations here.

First of all the Zaggmate is a hard aluminium case that matches the iPad design and offers a great deal of protection. while only adding a small amount of weight and only about 6mm to the overall thickness.

This Zaggmate is unique, though, in that it has an embedded Bluetooth keyboard and iPad stand. Simple remove the iPad from the case and stand it either portrait or landscape and turn on the keyboard and you’ve got yourself a mini-laptop!

Archos 101 Internet Tablet unboxing

Matt — Fri, 05 Nov 2010 08:12:39 +0000

The Archos 101 is a much anticipated Android tablet. Whilst Samsung occupy the high end of the market with the £500 Galaxy Tab and an endless slew of cheap and nasty tablets invade from every other company looking to make a buck Archos focuses on a mid-range that is going to appeal to the majority.

The 101 is named as such due to it’s huge WXVGA 10.1″ LCD screen. the device boast quite an eye catching spec list including a front facing webcam, Android 2.2 Froyo (not implemented yet), 1ghz processor, 3D openGL, 8 or 16gb on-board storage, video and audio codecs for pretty much everything and a handy kickstand.

Innopocket Hexapose iPad stand unboxing video

Matt — Sat, 11 Sep 2010 08:03:57 +0000

After cases I suspect that iPad holders or stands are the next big accessory that iPad owners are likely to buy. There are plenty out there now but the thing that initially attracted me to the Hexapose was that it is made from aluminium and looks a little like the stand you’ll find on an Apple iMac. It’s also poseable in 6 different positions, hence the Hex in Hexapose, in both portrait and landscape orientations.
