Prone to Wander LA is a company offers beautiful phone cases and home decor items all centered around God's word and the Christian faith. They were kind enough to send me three awesome cases for my iPhone 6S+ and I am going to show you those in detail and give you a quick review. Stick around until the end for info on how to win your own phone cases from Prone to Wander. When the cases arrived in a very interesting shape box, I decided to take photos of my unboxing. The cases came sealed under tissue paper and resting on a bed of fancy paper shreds. Each case was individually ... Continue Reading...
Personalized just for your gadget – GoCustomized
Having an expensive-to-replace smart phone has always kept me in search for good protective cases for it. I get bored of cases or they get stained or don't protect well. I've done reviews for cases in the past, but this one is different because the outside is completely customized. GoCustomized provided me with a code to customize and try this case for review. Isn't it pretty? The folks at GoCustomized offer tons of cases for just about any device you could have - Apple, Samsung, Sony, Motorola, and several others I've never heard of! They have hard and soft cases, leather and bamboo ... Continue Reading...
Maan Universal Flexible Long Arm Cell Phone Holder
I had high hopes for this flexible cellphone holder, but it isn't what I expected. I had hoped to be able to clip this in the car for my toddler to watch videos when needed, but the flexible arm can't hold up my iPhone 6S+ without bending down or bouncing with every bump in the road. It sounds crazy but I think it would be more sturdy if the arm was shorter, maybe only 10 inches or so. Even clipped to my table the whole arm sways every time I touch my phone screen. The only way I could get it to not bounce like crazy is to twist it back on itself at least once. Here's what I did like: ... Continue Reading...
King Precision Stylus Pen
I was so excited to try out this precision-style stylus with my new iPhone 6S Plus, but I am more than a little disappointed. Before I get into what was wrong I'll tell you what I did like about the King Precision Stylus Pen. The pen is great. It writes nicely and the ink dries very quickly. The size is perfect. Many stylus today are so short they don't fit into my hand, but this one is just like a pen both in length and diameter. So that's how it earned the two stars. So why did I deduct? The clear disc stylus tips do not work well at all. They skip and you never know what ... Continue Reading...
IYOOVI Digital Alarm Clock
My kids (mainly the oldest) love having a clock in their room, but empty, easy-to-reach plugs are scarce so for the longest time they haven't had a clock. I am so happy with this battery-powered Digital Alarm Clock. It doesn't take up a plug and it has a ton of options! Large, easy-to-read display Easy to set time, date and alarm 12 or 24 hour time Date Alarm Room Temperature (accurate too!) Light-Up display with daylight sensor (or you can turn that off to save battery power) Super bright light to check the time at night Light weight I received a discount on ... Continue Reading...
TunePhonik Portable Mini Speaker
Sometimes you just want a small external speaker to amplify the music from your phone or MP3 player. This week I tested out the TunePhonik Mini Portable Speaker. This little speaker has a lot of potential, but I would make three major changes: 1) Make the cord 18+ inches longer. The headphone-jack cable that comes with the speaker only stretches to about 12" which is way too short unless you leave your phone/MP3 laying on the surface beside the speaker and never plan to pick it up. 2) Increase the battery life. I charged the speaker for 12 hours, used it for 1 and it was dead the next ... Continue Reading...
Ruban® MacBook Pro 15″ 2 in 1 Soft-Touch Hard Case + Keyboard Cover
Having a cover of some sort on your computer is always a good idea. I didn't always think so until I turned over my MacBook Pro and saw all the scratches. Yikes! So I was stoked to receive this cool Ruban® MacBook Pro 15" 2 in 1 Soft-Touch Hard Case + Keyboard Cover to review! My first impressions: - The case comes neatly packaged in a large zip pouch and the keyboard cover comes in a cardboard sleeve. - I love the feel of the case. It is soft and smooth without being sticky. - It fits perfectly on my 15" MacBook Pro (Mid 2012) which is actually 15.4" display. - Installation was a ... Continue Reading...
Tabletop Mini Tripod
Clovis Supply asked me to review this little tabletop tripod for small cameras, camcorders, GoPro, etc. Since I've been looking for a small setup for my GoPro I figured I'd try this one out. Overall I am very pleased with this tripod. The whole stand folds up to be about 7.5" long and about 1.25" in diameter. It fits perfectly in my camera bag that holds my GoPro and accessories. My favorite feature is how the legs and body are made of metal and they will stand at several different heights. You also do not have to tighten the legs, you just adjust them out to the angle you want and ... Continue Reading...
Agent18 iPhone 5 5S SE Velocity Case
Agent18 sent me this cool purple Velocity Case to try on my iPhone 5. I know my phone is sadly outmoded, but this case also fits the iPhone 5S and the new iPhone SE. The Velocity case comes in several bright colors but I picked purple. The rubber is smooth and it feels great in my hand. It seems thick enough to withstand a short drop, though I'm not brave enough to test it out! All ports and buttons are completely accessible and everything is lined up nicely. Unlike other silicone phone cases I've tried, this case doesn't stick in my pocket. It also hasn't collected any lint or hair ... Continue Reading...
64GB GorillaDrive Flash Drive
We bought this 64GB GorillaDrive Flash Drive for my son, an avid little photographer, to store his photos on so they wouldn't take up room on my computer. His dad has one just like it so he thinks its cool. For the price it holds plenty of photos. We love the "tough" exterior. This thing feels like it could withstand some serious abuse though I hope it never has to. When you have the drive plugged in to the computer the cap snaps on the end -- very handy as those little caps love to get lost! There is also a handy loop so you can clip it to a backpack or lanyard. So far this has ... Continue Reading...
Roku 2
What led to this purchase: We don't have cable (too far out in the country) and satellite TV isn't in the budget. We do subscribe to Netflix and we have Amazon Prime too, but our outmoded BluRay player doesn't have Amazon and the poor old Netflix app would barely run. So I asked for a Roku 2 for an early birthday present. We haven't been disappointed!! Here's what we love so far: Hubby and I really like FXNow, HGTV, A&E and the live local news we can stream. The kids are constantly asking to watch PBS Kids, Disney Junior, and Nick Jr. Netflix is right there for benge watching ... Continue Reading...
