Is a £160 phone better than an S7 edge?

YouTube player
I spent 2 weeks with the indestructible E&L W9 to find out if having a top end phone is really worth it.

Can I survive 2 weeks with a £160 phone with my beloved s7 edge sat in a drawer?

Vobot Alexa powered Clock review and unboxing

YouTube player
An unboxing and review of the Alexa powered Vobot Alarm clock.

At time of writing the app is buggy and doesn’t give you a wifi password screen to sync it to your wifi network and unfortunately for me I tried everything, including using a browser on my laptop before finally returning to my Android and using the browser there.

If you can’t connect Vobot to your Wifi network then do the following…
Power up the Vobot until it is fully booted
Open Google Chrome on your android device and visit myvobot.com.
Follow the instructions the same as you did in the app.
This time it will work instead of making you want to launch it into space.

£100 Ring video doorbell and stick up camera alternative – Reolink Argus

This is a review, setup guide & side by side comparison for the 1080P Reolink Argus stick up Camera. I have compared it to my Ring video doorbell and although there are advantages to each I honestly think the Reolink Argus wins in almost every category and it is a big financial saving in both initial outlay and yearly subscription cost. See below for a price comparison.

I honestly believe that this is the best bang for buck wireless security camera for 2017

Reolink Argus £99.99: amzn.to/2jQle6R
Ring video doorbell £145 (featured in the video): amzn.to/2wae0fq
Ring stick up cam £159: amzn.to/2jQmDKF

£60 Gopro cheap alternative – best bang for buck 4K sports action camera review 2017

YouTube player
This is a £60 Gopro alternative and is easily your best bang for buck 4K sports action camera of 2017. In this video I’ll be doing various tests to compare the footage to a gopro camera.

I’ve pitted it against a gopro that costs 3 times the price and it wins in practically every category. My favourite thing about this action camera is that it has a proper screen for setting up your shots and reviewing your footage. The 4K is stunning, the colours look great without any need for editing and the carry case and number of accessories alone make it well worth it’s price tag.

It comes with a waerproof case, and an open back case and more fittings and straps than I could count.
