These mechanical keyboards are two very different sides of the same beautifully made coin
These mechanical keyboards are two very different sides of the same beautifully made coin

Most mechanical keyboards are great these days, with colorful looks and satisfying typing sounds – even in budget-friendly ranges. But every so often, one stops me dead in my tracks. In this case, two of them. I’ve been testing a pair of jaw-droppingly lovely keyboards that launched late last year. The Evoworks Evo75, a compact […]

Apple’s weird anti-nausea dots cured my car sickness
Apple’s weird anti-nausea dots cured my car sickness

I’ll just work from the car, I thought. But after a few minutes of staring at my screen on quick mountain switchbacks I could feel the first signs of cold, coagulated nausea bubbling up from that sweaty place in my gut. I looked to the horizon for relief, but nothing helped… until I remembered Apple’s […]

Honor’s Magic V6 sets three foldable firsts
Honor’s Magic V6 sets three foldable firsts

On paper, the Honor Magic V6 sounds like a tremendous leap forward for foldable phones: It’s the thinnest one yet, with the biggest battery, and the best water-resistance ever. In practice, only the bigger battery feels like a meaningful improvement. The other upgrades are only fractionally superior to what came before. This isn’t entirely Honor’s […]

This portable light is great for way more than camping
This portable light is great for way more than camping

It’s intended for camping, but BougeRV’s T1 light is so versatile that it also makes for a great summer travel companion that’ll continue to light the dark corners of your life long after you return. I used it for a few months during a recent road trip in my camper van, and it’s the light […]

I’ve found the Goldilocks of portable MIDI controllers
I’ve found the Goldilocks of portable MIDI controllers

I have tested more portable MIDI controllers than I can keep track of, and I will tell you right now: 37 keys is the ideal size. While Arturia’s 25-key MiniLab MK3 is a solid controller that easily fits in a backpack, it feels a bit claustrophobic. The new $149 MiniLab 37 adds another octave, giving […]

I went to the woods to drink surprisingly great espresso
I went to the woods to drink surprisingly great espresso

With summer’s return, I’m again reminded of my limits as I head into the great outdoors: I can put up with a heavy, uncomfortable backpack, bug bites, mud, and even bland dehydrated food, but I will not forsake my morning brew. I’ve tried every imaginable coffee gadget in my half-century of camping. These range from […]

Jabra Evolve3 75 review: I wore this work headset for weeks, and it was a revelation

Jabra Evolve3 75 is a premium offering, but for its high ask, it serves as a fantastic mic, sleek build, solid battery life, wireless charging, and music listening with enough oomph.

Boox’s quirky page-turning remote won me over
Boox’s quirky page-turning remote won me over

Following the launch of the surprisingly popular Kobo Remote, Boox has released its own device to ease the burden of reaching for an e-reader’s touchscreen that’s an arm’s length away. The Tappy isn’t Boox’s first page-turning remote, but its design takes a much different approach to the company’s slim but boring B.T. Remoter. The Tappy […]

The three sets of earbuds I reach for
The three sets of earbuds I reach for

I have been an audio reviewer for 20 years. My time as a freelance headphones panelist at Wirecutter, and the multitude of reviews I’ve written for sites like Reviewed, Digital Trends, IGN, and now The Verge, have given me the chance to listen to hundreds of earbuds. Some were truly excellent, and some were pretty […]

Logitech’s new Mobi Fold squeezes a lot of functionality into a tiny folding mouse

As the name implies, the Mobi Fold is a compact mouse that can  fold in half using a hinge that can pivot about 130 degrees. At $79.99 in graphite, off-white, lilac, and sand color options, the Mobi […]
