Grace Digital Audio ECO Extreme All Terrain Speaker Case Review

, Jun 15th 2011 Discuss [6]

What we’ve got here today is an oddity indeed, a product we don’t often see around these parts, one made for the crossbreed citizen of our beloved modern world, the hardcore outdoors tech nerd. Better yet, it’s a piece of equipment that’s made for a mountain climber, but will make your everyday sunfish catching a whole lot louder. This is the Grade Digital Audio ECO Extreme All Terrain Speaker Case – it’s waterproof, it’s bright blue, and it’s made to make sure your handset doesn’t get trashed while you’re listening to Lady Gaga while you’re jumping out of an airplane. Actually you probably still wouldn’t be able to hear the music over the air even if you had it – but your device would be fine!

, Jun 15th 2011 Discuss [16]

Samsung’s Galaxy S II smartphone blew us away with its combination of dual-core performance, impressive Super AMOLED Plus display and super-slim dimensions, beating the HTC Sensation to the market. The company’s official accessories haven’t been so timely, however, but the Samsung Vehicle Dock Kit, HDTV Adapter, Desktop Dock and Battery Charger Stand are finally on the SlashGear test bench.

iFrogz iPad 2 Summit Case Review – Great Case or Greatest Case?

, Jun 14th 2011 Discuss [12]

Before we begin I should warn you that I’ve been rather skeptical in the past that the iPad 2 would ever need another case again, given the utter awesomeness that the Apple-made smart cover had. Because of this, the thought of adding any case that would disallow my ability to use that genius bit of engineering has, up until recently, made me a sad panda. Recently I reviewed a sort of hand-holder for the iPad 2 and it didn’t fare especially well because it made a total mess of the other cases and coverings I was using – this iFrogz Summit case has no such problems working with my 3rd party peripherals. It’s got protection on both sides, a nice leathery feel, and it allows the iPad 2 to stand up on its own – is it time to toss the Smart Cover and move on?

iShuttr camera accessory for iPhone adds Xenon flash

, Jun 3rd 2011 Discuss [2]

I have taken photos with my iPhone 4 a bunch of times and generally, the photos aren’t that great. They turn out blurry or too dark in my hands more often than not. The iShuttr might help that blurry business, but it will certainly help my pics to not be too dark thanks to the larger flash that case adds to the iPhone. The case promises to turn your iPhone into a real point and shoot camera. Read The Full Story

KarasKustoms debuts new machined aluminum iPad and iPad 2 cases

, May 19th 2011 Discuss [0]

A long while back, I got my hands on one of the machined KarasKustoms cases for my iPhone 4 and loved the case. It looked great, offered some protection from drops and was all around awesome to behold. The coolest thing about the case to me is that each of them is machined from chunks of aluminum and then uses screws to attach it. The gang at KarasKustoms has now turned the aluminum machining prowess towards making cases for your iPad or iPad 2. Read The Full Story

SlashGear Week in Review – Week 12 2011

, Mar 20th 2011 Discuss [6]

Another week in the history books and another Week in Review for you to check out. We started the week last week with the alarms not working on older OS versions of the iPhone. At least the alarms were an hour early and not an hour late. The only fix for me was updating to the latest version of the OS. Terminix and its ad agency created a billboard in Dallas last week using thousands of live roaches. The board was designed to warn people of the germs roaches carry and to set an example to all the roaches watching of what can happen if they come into your home. Read The Full Story
