Review: Extended Battery Case for Samsung Galaxy S4 by USEE





I work two full time jobs and I’m also a product review blogger so I am constantly on my cell phone throughout the day hoping that I don’t miss anything so as you can imagine my phone dies about 3 times a day. This can be very stressful because you never know when you may need to reach someone so I resort to portable battery packs for my phone. These work great, but I always seem to forget a portable battery pack at least once a week which makes my day extremely stressful. With the Extended Battery Case by Usee, my phone charger is already attached to my phone so I don’t have to worry about forgetting it!

What are the features?
·         Smart cover available with a stylish slim decent & practical backup shell
·         Kickstand ideal for watching videos, reading, browsing the web
·         The flip cover protects your screen against scratches, dust, and dirt
·         Perfect design enables you to control all of the buttons easily no need to remove the case
·         3200mAh capacity battery can provide a long uninterrupted usage


This battery case comes in a multitude of colors so it’s sure to match anyone’s personal style, I got mine in pink and I absolutely love it. This case is not only functional it’s also stylish which I can appreciate. My case came half way charged so I could use it right out of the packaging if I wanted to, but I popped it on the charger and let it go!

I love the fact that this battery case has a flip cover so that it will protect my screen from the contents of my purse, and the kick stand makes watching videos way easier! The battery case itself is very easy to use all you do is press a button to turn on the charging feature. LED light will indicate how much battery is left in the case so you never have to guess how much juice you have left. When you want to charge this case you simply plug it in just like your cell phone, super simple!

The only downside to this case is the fact that it doesn’t have cross through technology, meaning when you plug in the case to charge it doesn’t charge the case then switch and start charging your cell phone. You have to charge both individually at night which can be a hassle to some, but it’s not  a huge deal to me.



I absolutely love this case! The fact that I can charge my phone while on the go without having to dig through my purse to find another gadget. If you’re looking to keep your phone charged while on the go you need the case by USEE. Get yours below:

Review: iPhone 6 Case by Ra-Bou





Our cell phones are possibly one of the most valuable devices we will come across because they contain access into our entire lives. I have lost quite a few cell phones because they were not properly protected by a case, so I've been on a mission to find a case that will protect my phone but still look stylish. The iPhone 6 Case by Ra-Bou is absolutely great, high quality, and doesn't bulk up your phone.



What are the features?

  • protects your phone from shock, scratches, abrasions, and other sorts of damage
  • 360 degrees of protection
  • absorbs the shock from dropping your phone
  • easily operate all of the buttons without needing to remove the case
  • tpu and polycarbonate case means for dual layered protection for your investment
My Opinions:

This case does exactly what it claims it will do. I tested this case out for quite some time and I am a very clumsy person, I drop my phone quite often and it hasn't even incurred a single scratch since I've been using this case. I appreciate the fact that they took their time making this case and got all of the button placements exact. There is nothing I hate more than a case that has the button placements off so I have to remove the case to use my phone.

I only wish this case came in brighter colors for us women out there!



If you're looking for a great case for your iPhone 6 get this one by Ra-Bou. Get yours below:

Review: VonHaus Gooseneck Tablet Mount



I have severe insomnia to the point that I only get 3 hours of sleep a night, so to help myself fall asleep I watch ASMR videos on YouTube using my tabletwhile in bed. Unfortunately, I have to admit when I start falling asleep while watching those videos I constantly drop the tablet on my face because I have no way of getting it to stand on it’s own. With the VonHaus Gooseneck Bracket with Desk Clamp Mount for tablets, I can hold my tablet up right on the side of my table without it falling on my face.

What are the features?
·         Adjustable and bendable support leg allows for a flexible range of viewing positions
·         Silicone holding pads to give a secure grip on your iPad or tablet without damaging it
·         360 degree rotation allows both vertical and horizontal viewing
·         Securely fastens to any desk or work surface with the built in clamp
·         Suitable for iPad and tablets between 8.9 inch-10.4 inch screen size


The Set Up:
The set up of this device is super simple and takes no time whatsoever. All you do is secure your tablet easily into this mount and affix it to your table or work surface with the included screw tight holder.

My Opinions:
I tested this mount on 4 different Android tablets and it works perfectly! I have never had one of my Android tablets slip out of this mount and it has made my life so much easier. I appreciate the fact that the gooseneck and adjustable and you can switch between vertical or horizontal viewing.

When I get in bed at night I secure my tablet in this mount and watch my videos to my heart’s content. I can’t explain how much this has changed my sleeping patterns. Instead of wasting time trying to prop up my tablet or waking up when I FINALLY fall asleep because I dropped my tablet on my face again I can secure my tablet in this mount and relax.

This VonHaus mount for tablets would be great for any situation. It really is perfect for when you want to watch movies or T.V. shows hands free, but it can also be great for playing games, or surfing the web.


Pros:
·         Works perfectly on 4 different Android tablets
·         Adjustable gooseneck
·         Attaches easily to a desk or work surface
·         Can switch easily from vertical to horizontal viewing

Cons:
·         My Kindle Fire doesn’t fit in this mount
If you’re looking for a great hands free mount for your tablet you should check out this one by VonHaus. Get yours below:

Review: Tagital 7'' Quad Core Android 4.4 KitKat Phone Tablet





Tablets are one of my favorite tech gadgets at the moment and they keep getting better and better, now there are phone and tablet hybrids. These devices combine the functionality of a tablet with the calling features of a phone and morph them in to one. The Tagital 7'' Phone Tablet is a great Phablet with plenty of features at a great price!

What are the features?

  • Equipped with a high speed processing platform 
  • No lag on games, web browsing, or videos
  • High quality graphics that allow for better visuals in videos and games
  • Ultra fast web browsing with built in Wi-Fi
  • Dual front and back cameras
  • Built in Bluetooth

The Set Up:

The set up of the Tagital 7'' Phone Tablet was extremely easy, anyone could do it! First, I connected the device to my Wi-Fi and it connected immediately with no problems whatsoever. Next, I connected my Google account which gives you access to your email, play store apps etc. To set up the calling features you simply insert your SIM card in the labeled slot and it's ready to use. It will work perfectly just as your normal cell phone does, but best of all this device will give the functionality of a tablet. 

My Opinions:

This Tagital Phone Tablet is outstanding for the price. I appreciate the quick touch response times, there is no lag between when you touch an icon and when the page loads. I also appreciate that I can surf the web and stream videos at lightening speed. The graphics are outstanding as well thanks to the operating system. The dual cameras are a great added feature that work for casual pictures here and there, but don't expect professional quality. 

The Google play store comes pre-installed so it's super simple to install any apps and games that you wish.



I love streaming videos to my tablet, the video quality is excellent and the speakers have nice sound quality as well. Overall, this tablet is excellent for the price point that it is offered. If you are looking for a phablet give this one a try!

Review: Elivebuy Powerbus 20000mAh Portable Charger



My phone and tablet have quickly become irreplaceable in my life, and when one of them dies while I’m out and about there is nothing that stresses me out more. I hate having to frantically search high and low for a wall outlet, and, even worse is when there are no outlets available. With the PowerBus Elivebuy 20000mAh 4 Independent USB output Portable Charger, I can charge all of my USB powered devices while on the go without needing to find a wall outlet.

What are the features?
·         4 Independent USB output ports
·         Charges the iPhone 6 over 8 times, iPhone 6 Plus or Samsung Galaxy S5 over 5 times, and the iPad air over 1 and a half times
·         Recharges in 12-14 hours with a 2 AMP Adapter
·         Perfect for long traveling
·         4 LED indicator lights display how much charge is left on the device
·         Allows for simultaneous charging of your devices at a suitable current


My Opinions:

This PowerBus charger is absolutely amazing, and has become my favorite portable charger in no time. I love the fact that it can charge 4 devices simultaneously if you so wish. It charges my phone VERY quickly which I can appreciate, and furthermore charges my phone so that I can actually disconnect it from this charger and use it on its own. There’s nothing that I hate more than a portable charger that just gives your phone enough juice to stay alive but not to actually disconnect and use it on its own again.

I tested this charger out on my Samsung Galaxy S4, my brother’s iPhone 6 plus, 4 different Android tablets, 2 Kindles, Bluetooth headphones, a GPS, and another portable charger, and this device charged them all perfectly! I enjoy the LED indicator lights on the side that way you know how much charge you have left on this device itself.

This charger fits easily into my purse with no issue whatsoever. It’s relatively thin for how powerful it is, so it slips in to my purse and it’s ready to go at a moment’s notice! This has become the only charger I take with me when I go out simply because it charges my devices at top speed, and it seems to hold a charge FOREVER. I normally only need to charge this device once a week after using it every day, sometimes multiple times a day.

I charge this PowerBus on Sunday nights, when I’m settling down for the night to watch T.V. I throw this on the charger and when I get up in the morning it’s fully charged and ready to go for the entire rest of the week!

Review: CPR Call Blocker



For whatever reason, my cell phone doesn't get very good signal in my home so I had to switch back to using a land line while I’m home. This has unleashed a load of crap, solicitor, telemarketer, robo calls and it drives me absolutely nuts every single day. I find that even when I explicitly tell these people to stop calling me, they don’t listen and continue to call. The final straw was on Christmas day actually, a company called my home 4 times on Christmas day and it drove me up the wall since I had company. With the CPR Call Blocker I can now easily and effectively block these unwanted calls and not worry about them not taking me off of their list.



What are the features?
·         3’’ Caller display screen
·         Block area codes, international, private, unavailable, or masked calls
·         Has the ability to block nuisance callers by pressing #2 on DECT extension handsets
·         1200 number capacity
·         Line powered (no external power or batteries needed)
·         Block unwanted callers at the touch of a button
Set up:
This device is very easy to set up, all you do is hook it to your already existing phone line and it’s ready to go. Once it’s hooked up you can go in to the menu and look at the different features, and if a call comes through that you want to block, simply press the big button that says block now!



My Opinions:
This Call Blocker is an absolute life saver! I love the fact that I can block these unwanted calls without having to speak to these people. I can’t stand when I tell them to stop calling and take me off of their list and they don’t do it, so the fact that I have the option to do it myself is worth it’s weight in gold! The CallBlocker works perfectly! Get yours below:

Review: VonHaus Foldable Portable Mount for Smartphones and Tablets




One of the most helpful devices I've used in a while is the VonHaus Foldable Portable Mount for Smartphones and Tablets. This device allows your phone or tablet to be secured in a vertical or horizontal orientation on any flat surfaces, which allows for easy reach or for watching movies.


What are the features?

·         Suitable for any iPad, iPad mini, iPhone, most tablets and Android Smartphones
·         Rubber holder can be removed to allow thicker devices or devices with cases to be held in the mount
·         Mount holds both vertically or horizontally at almost any angle you wish
·         Folds flat for easy storage and transportation
·         Adjusts to different angles by pressing the button


This foldable mount has made my life so much easier. I have anxiety when I sleep so it makes me wake up constantly to check my phone and see what time it is to make sure I’m not oversleeping for work. With this stand I am able to easily prop my phone up and press a button checking the time mid sleep, so I don’t have to constantly search for my phone. This mount works really well, and is made of high quality materials. Another reason I love this mount is to watch movies with my tablet. I simply stand it up with this mount and it sits on it’s own and I can easily watch movies without having to hold up my tablet. If you’re looking for a high quality mount for you phone or tablet, you need this one by VonHaus. Get yours below:

Review: Sentey Amplitude X90 In Ear Headphones



I love all sorts of music, and when I’m going about doing mundane tasks I have to listen to music to keep me going. The Sentey Amplitude In Ear Headphones are high quality earbuds at a very affordable price. These headphones also have better bass than most standard headphones!

What are the features?

·         Rubberized finish for a quality feel and finish
·         In line microphone so you can take calls without having to change pace
·         In line control so you can answer a call by simply pressing a button
·         These earbuds come with 3 different ear bud sizes S,M,L to comfortably fit any ear shape or size
·         Sleek Flat Cable reduces the risk of the cord breaking as well as cord tangle



How to use:

Using these headphones couldn't be any easier! All you need to do is plug them in the port and go! There are no special buttons to press or anything.

My Opinions:

The Sentey Amplitude Earbuds are absolutely amazing. I really love the sound quality these headphones give to my music . The very first second I used these headphones I said outloud to myself, wow the bass is great! I couldn't even believe the sound quality that these headphones provided.

I tested them out on multiple genres of music just to see if they really preformed well in all genres, or just with certain music. I tested these out on Pop, Rock, Classical, Rap, Jazz, and even Spa Music. The sound quality was excellent on all levels, I even use these now at night to listen to my ASMR videos on YouTube. I would say if you are a fan of Binaural sound, these are the headphones to you, they maximize the Binaural effect.



Another feature of these earbuds that I really appreciate is the fact that they come with so many different size ear buds. I have very small ears and other earbuds tend to hurt because they are too big and they start to give me a headache so I steered away from this style headphones in the past. I am able to use the smallest size earbuds, and that is just perfect for me. I haven’t had any ear pain, or headache from using this pair of headphones, and that is worth it’s weight in gold! If you need a great quality pair of headphones get these by Sentey:

Review: Neojdx Milan II Bluetooth 4.0 Headphones with Hardshell Case




Bluetooth headphones have quickly become one of my favorite things to review because I find so many uses for them, and each one can have quite a few differences from the competition, I actually want to compile a list and rank each one I’ve reviewed from best to worst. The Neojdx Milan II Bluetooth Headphones would be at the very top of my list. These Bluetooth headphones are an over the ear style that is perfect for capturing crisp, clear sound.

What are the features?

·         They took the customer’s requests and made the perfect model of Bluetooth headphones
·         Bluetooth 4.0, Advanced Bluetooth CSR version 4.0 with APTX and AAC music playback
·         Wireless freedom! Stream music directly from your smartphone or tablet and be free of annoying tangled cords
·         Charges quickly and lasts for hours and gives 14 hours of battery life
·         Sleek, comfortable, soft touch, lightweight design comes with a hard travel case to protect your headphones while traveling


The charging:

These Milan II Bluetooth headphones came already mostly charged, so I popped them on my charger and they were ready to go in about 15 minutes. I appreciate the fact that they charged them before they left the warehouse that way I could use them immediately upon arrival. Since using them they do take a little longer to charge because I completely drained the battery to see how long it would take. I have gotten a full charge on these Bluetooth headphones in an hour, super quick and simple.

The pairing:

The Bluetooth headphones are extremely easy to use. I simply hold down the power button until they turn on, then hold it down again and the light will flash from blue to red meaning it’s ready to pair. I click search for Bluetooth devices on my phone or tablet and click the Milan II. They paired instantly and it took me less than 30 seconds from start to finish-without reading any instructions. I tested these out not only on my Samsung Galaxy S4, but also on my brother’s iPhone, on my Kindle, and on my 3 different Android tablets it paired with all of them quickly.

The sound:

Now, for the most important part, the sound quality. I tested these Bluetooth headphones out with quite a few different music genres; pop, rock, classical, hip hop, blues etc and they provide excellent sound quality. They also come with integrated bass which is a great added feature. I enjoy listening to music wherever I go, so these have quickly become my go to headphones. I use these at night a lot to listen to ASMR videos on YouTube to help me sleep, so they provide outstanding crystal clear sound. I believe everyone should own these.



The fit:

The Milan II Bluetooth headphones are an over the ear style, one I’ve never owned before but have quickly come to love. I have very small ears so traditional ear buds tend to hurt my ears unless I can find super small adapters. With these over the ear style headphones I don’t have to worry about hurting my head or ears because they fit right over my ears and are super soft to the touch. The headphones themselves are not adjustable size wise, and they are a little big on my head but I don’t find that to be a problem they don’t fall down or move around at all so it works out. I also appreciate the fact that they fold up and fit right inside their included hard shell case so I can store them neatly when not in use.

Overall the Milan II Bluetooth Headphones are my absolute favorite Bluetooth headphones that I own to date. I would absolutely recommend these to anyone that wants an affordable option for Bluetooth headphones, best of all it comes in five different color choices so it’s sure to fit anyone’s personal style.

Review: Addao 40W 5-Port Desktop USB Charger with LED Indicator




I have countless electronics and gadgets since I am a product reviewer, and they all have their own cord and need to be charged which, as you can imagine, becomes quite a hassle during the day. With the Addao 40W 5 Port High Speed Desktop USB Charger I can simultaneously charge 5 USB powered devices with ease, and while only using up one plug on my power outlet. This is a compact device that won’t take up too much space in your home or on your desk.

What are the features? 
·         Total output 5V

·         About the size of a deck of playing cards


The Setup:

I probably should have skipped this section entirely because there was basically no set up at all. From the moment you remove this desktop charger from the packaging it’s ready to go.All that you need to do is plug it in to the wall, then plug in your USB powered devices and it’s charging them in no time. Super easy to do and even people that aren't technologically savvy at all can figure this one out! Plug and go.


My Opinions:
.
This Addao Desktop USB charger has been great to have in my household. I am now able to charge all of my USB powered devices with ease in no time. I appreciate the fact that I can charge 5 of my USB powered devices at once, that way I don’t have to pick and choose what device I should charge before another. I normally have a charging schedule as funny as that sounds. I charge all of my Bluetooth headphones at one time during the day while I’m at work, when I get home I charge my Bluetooth speakers, I charge my tablets over night while I’m sleeping and while I’m sleeping on Sunday night I charge up all of my portable chargers. This works great for me then my devices are always ready to go. If you’re looking for a high capacity Desktop USB charger you need this one by Addao. Get yours below:
