KMASHI 20000mAh Power Bank charges your phone on the quick and cheap

Batteries. We love them, but sometimes, we hate them. Countless hours of manpower are spent ever year trying to improve upon a century old technology. As batteries improve at a snail’s pace, there are those of us out there who are in a never ending war with trying to keep our phones alive for even

Sony Xperia Z5 Compact review: The flagship for small phone lovers

I’m not a small phone lover but I have always loved Sony’s Compact smartphone line. It’s just because of the point of it. Sony is the only manufacturer who offers a “mini” variant with uncompromised specs (for the most part). The Xperia Z line is fading to make way for Sony’s new Xperia X initiative,

Roundup: Essential apps for 140-character shenanigans (Twitter apps)

Twitter is my personal choice for Social Media. Restricting contact to 140 characters forces people – and, more importantly – news outlets – to really get to the point of their interactions. Headline tells you what to expect, and if you’re convinced you should read it, you can click the link. Simple. Clean. Easy. As

Even Kate Upton’s ‘talent’ can’t save Game of War from being a hot mess [Review]

Given its popularity and advertising in recent months, I wound up being assigned to review Game of War, by developer Machine Zone, Inc. I had downloaded it in the past and tried it out. It wasn’t my cup of tea, so I uninstalled it and moved on. This time, I decided I would give it an

EaseUS offers painless data recovery for your wounded Android

We all delete stuff we don’t mean to – text messages, pictures, old downloads that are more useful than we thought…that long-lost, highly critical BOGO coupon at Chili’s that stopped me from getting chips AND cheese sticks…but I digress. Anyway! We all delete stuff and later regret it. EaseUS Mobile is here to provide a shining

Ulefone Power review: Smartphones need a battery this big

The big names in smartphones are always apprehensive about packing large batteries in their flagships. That’s annoying to a lot of people, because battery life is a crucial factor. Manufacturers think if their smartphones aren’t razor thin then people won’t want them, but I’ll argue all day that they’re wrong. This leaves the opportunity open for

Presidential elections in the United States are a big deal. Every country in the world is closely looking at candidates and major events, and then offer special coverage in the much-awaited day. Without doubt, Donald Trump is the most controversial candidates I have seen. The fact that there’s a game that lets you beat him

Phiaton BT 100 NC Bluetooth Headphones – Great sound, style, and comfort marred by unreliable Bluetooth (Review)

I must confess that prior to this review, Phiaton was not a brand I was familiar with. When these headphones arrived in the mail, I was totally oblivious as to what to expect from them. Let me tell you: I was pleasantly surprised…at first. What’s In The Box? The packaging for the BT 100 NC’s was some

Carnage TV is a zombie survival game worth picking up (review)

Do me a favor: go to Google Play, and search ‘zombie’. My goodness…you will quickly be facing over 100 games & apps that use zombies as their main theme, obstacle, and/or villains. Wading through these looking for a quality title to play on your Android can be quite a challenge. Chances are you’ve played the
