HP Folio 13 Review

, Jan 18th 2012 Discuss [20]

Everyone has an laptop based on Intel’s Ultrabook spec these days, and if they don’t already, they showed it off at CES last week. Just being thin and light isn’t enough to stand out in the crowd now, and HP knows that. To that end, they’ve produced the Folio 13, an Ultrabook that they’re aiming at the business market. The 13-inch laptop still manages to come in at under a grand, so it’s worth considering even if you don’t spend most of your working hours between one terminal and another. How does the Folio 13 stack up to the rest of the Ultrabook competition? I spent the last week finding out.

ZTE Tania Preview

, Jan 18th 2012 Discuss [5]

ZTE isn’t a name most smartphone shoppers would recognize, but the company has ambitions to change all that with the ZTE Tania. A 4.3-inch Windows Phone 7 device, the Tania aims to deliver not only all that Microsoft OS goodness you’ve come to love, but at a price that significantly undercuts rivals. The unit we’ve been using since last week is final hardware but non-final software, hence this being a preview and not a full review, but it’s still enough to get an early take on what ZTE hopes will be a smartphone game-changer in more ways than one.

V-Moda Faders Review

, Jan 18th 2012 Discuss [0]

There comes a time in every publisher’s life when he or she must review something so tiny, so seemingly insignificant, that it otherwise might have slipped through the cracks – that’s what’s happening here with the V-Mode Faders earplugs. What these little buds are is blockers of sound. They look by all means to be in-ear speakers like their very close cousins, but in that they block the sound instead of blast it, here we’ve got an ever-so-slightly unique piece of gadgetry.

Powerbag Business Class Pack review

, Jan 17th 2012 Discuss [1]

During this last week at CES 2012, an absolute massacre of running, typing, snatching quick snacks, tripping over wires, smashing into walls, and most importantly, transferring electronics in and out of my rucksack of choice, I’ve got to say one thing about the Powerbag Business Class Pack: I’ve never seen another backpack keep all the pieces separate and organized the way this one does so very successfully. It’s almost like the fact that this sack has a rechargeable battery in the bottom of it is a bonus feature, that’s how much I’ve enjoyed using it to tote my devices through Las Vegas. The 6,000 mAh battery certainly does add frosting to the cake, also, when it comes down to it.

AAXA P4 Pico Projector Review

, Jan 6th 2012 Discuss [9]

We’ve seen our fair share of pico and pocket projectors here at SlashGear, but recently we’ve had the pleasure to work with and review one of the most portable and brightest of them all, a pico with an 80 lumen engine — the AAXA P4 Pico Projector. There are many different uses for a portable projector and whether they are an expensive toy, or a needed accessory is up to you. Head on down for some pictures and hands-on video of this little projector in action.

HP ENVY 15 Review

All the headlines these days seem to be grabbed by those svelte little Ultrabooks, but there’s still a considerable market for big-screen, high-power laptops out there. HP is more than happy to serve, and their latest offerings in the top of the line ENVY family makes a compelling showing, combining media features and a premium fit and finish at a lower price than its competitors. Unlike the only technically portable ENVY 17 3D, the 15-inch size is ideal for a desktop replacement that’s still decent on portability. How does the ENVY 15 stack up? Let’s find out.

Philips goLITE BLU Energy Light Review

, Dec 22nd 2011 Discuss [2]

You don’t have to have been diagnosed with Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) to come down with the winter blues, or indeed to require some help waking up in the morning or keeping momentum during the day. Philips reckons it has the answer in the shape of the goLITE BLU HF3330/HF3332, a portable light lamp that promises to wake you up refreshed, buoy you during the day, and even help you say goodbye to jetlag. Ambitious claims from a box of LEDs: check out the full SlashGear review after the cut.

Three WiFi Hub ZTE MF10 Review

, Dec 22nd 2011 Discuss [6]

With mobile data speeds matching – and in some case exceeding – traditional wired broadband connections, it’s no surprise that data sticks have taken off in the past few years. Until now, the two most common options are a USB dongle, for getting a single device online, or a mobile hotspot, sharing a 3G/4G connection with a number of WiFi-tethered clients. Now UK carrier Three has launched the Three WiFi Hub (aka ZTE MF10), a compact, semi-portable way to share a USB modem’s connection with multiple wireless and wired devices. Must-have addition to your gear bag or just a glossy paperweight; the full SlashGear review waits beyond the cut.

TP-LINK TL-SC4171G WiFi IP Camera Review

, Dec 21st 2011 Discuss [5]

Burglars rummaging through your holiday gifts; cats shedding hair on your favorite jumper; your in-laws pulling up in the drive – sometimes it would be nice to have another set of eyes, just in case. TP-LINK can’t graft extra eyeballs into your face, but its TL-SC4171G Pan/Tilt Surveillance Camera can give you real-time video monitoring with nothing more than mains power and a WiFi network. Check out the full SlashGear review after the cut.

Verizon Galaxy Nexus Review

, Dec 21st 2011 Discuss [43]

Here in the LTE version of the newest Google hero phone, the Verizon Galaxy Nexus (also known as the Samsung Galaxy Nexus or Galaxy Nexus 4G LTE) has not only the unique claim to running Google’s newest mobile operating system Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich first, it’s also connected to the fastest network in the states, and best of all: you can go to your corner Verizon store and purchase one, unlike the international edition. All that said, you’ve really got the same device only ever so slightly modified for this particular carrier: Google’s vanilla hero phone remains nearly as pure as its first release internationally. What you’re going to get here is another perspective on the Galaxy Nexus in general, how ICS handles our day to day, and what it means to own the LTE version of this device here in the USA.

Pogoplug Mobile Review

, Dec 21st 2011 Discuss [5]

You can hardly click on the internet these days without stumbling across cloud storage, with seemingly anybody with some spare server space offering it up for offsite storage. What if you’re more interested in hosting your own little cloud, though, with no monthly subscription fees but still access when you’re on the move? Pogoplug has been helping set up self-hosted shared storage for some time now, but the Pogoplug Mobile promises to do it with an even smaller footprint and in a way that works seamlessly with your smartphone. Read on for the full SlashGear review.

Samsung ChatON for Android Review

, Dec 20th 2011 Discuss [4]

When it comes to communication solutions in our modern connected, mobile, and forward thinking society, we’ve got no lack of abundance, especially when it comes to messaging applications. What Samsung has tried to do here with their own group chat app by the name of ChatON is to differentiate by having both a simple to use interface as well as connections to basically every media gallery on your device, as well as your camera. Have a peek here at our hands-on review of ChatON and know this: the application is out on the market already and you’ll be able to download it for free for Android and Bada right this minute if you wish!
