There is no shortage of keyboards out there, and if you include the word gaming, you get heaps of keyboards flashing colours in your eyeballs. The mini portable keyboards cut that down a little, though not the price tag. Logitech G is trying to put their stake in the ground with their latest release, the Logitech Pro X 60 LIGHTSPEED. So I checked it out to see if it’s worth the $429 price tag. It has a case The first thing you will notice when you open the box for the Logitech Pro X 60 LIGHTSPEED is that it comes…

Gaming with a headset is a truly magical experience. The enhanced sound and drowning out sounds around you really make a difference, but what if you don’t want to drop $500+ on a top-of-the line headset for your console? Well, JBL wants to make that easier with the $150 JBL Quantum 360 P and JBL Quantum 360 X headsets. And to be honest, for the price point, there is a lot of headset packed in here. So why is there an X version and a P version? The short answer is that Microsoft and Sony are annoying. The X version…
If you have been following this site for a while, you will know I am now about six months into my MTG journey. From learning the game from scratch to now, I have been absolutely loving it. Each new set introduces new mechanics, some of which are old for other people, new cards, and new creatures to encounter. Well, the latest set is Outlaws of Thunder Junction, which is releasing next week, which means right now pre-release events are happening. This means I have dabbled, and I can say I am digging it. So what’s the deal with this new…
Mesh Wi-Fi solutions have been everywhere for a while now, but more so since so many ISPs in New Zealand have offered them in packages. Whether it’s called Super Wi-Fi or just a bundled router, it’s hard to get a fibre connection without one of these packages. Well, I was sent a Google Nest WiFi router to take it for a spin and see how it compares. What is a mesh network? https://youtu.be/i3tX2AP5DBE In short, it lets you have multiple Access Point’s (APs) for one wireless network, extending the range. This used to be just the technology of companies, so…
I have fallen for the Ring Doorbell and camera suite. The ease of use and insane number of features in them have made it a no-brainer for people who want a little more security without the cost of an expensive monitored security system. Heck, even getting a pug to keep your house safe these days is too expensive. Did you know that pugs need to be fed every day? Anyway, pugs aside, this suite of options has a new entry, the Ring Battery Video Doorbell Pro. And let me tell you, it’s pretty sweet! Setting up the Ring Video Battery…
The upcoming DLC for FINAL FANTASY XVI is only a couple of weeks ago. The new package is called The Rising Tide can be played from April 18. We checked out Final Fantasy XVI: Echoes of the Fallen and rather enjoyed it. https://youtu.be/aveDvd66clk The Rising Tide unlocks an all-new story, battles, sidequests, weapons, accessories, level cap and more, adding a new depth to Clive’s journey before the exciting conclusion of FINAL FANTASY XVI. In The Rising Tide, an unmarked letter arrives to Clive at the hideaway containing a request to rescue the Dominant of Leviathan the Lost. This new DLC takes Clive and his companions to the…
Commander is one of the most popular formats in Magic: The Gathering. While I have dabbled, I haven’t been down to a store to try the game at an event. With the latest Universes Beyond being Fallout commander decks, this seemed like the best time to give it a try. And where would I go to try this? Bea DnD of course. What the hell is Commander? Commander is a constructed format that was initially created by the player base. It has remained a super popular format because of the way it puts your stacks of paper to use. This…
Magic: The Gathering is a fascinating IP filled with interesting worlds, creatures, and lore. But it’s also a super fun card game, and with the Universes Beyond series, they bring the fun gameplay to other IPs you may love. Everything from Warhammer 40K to Lord of the Rings has been brought into Magic: The Gathering. More out there is the recent Dr. Who release, but more up my alley is the new Fallout release. The biggest question is: is it worth checking out this series, and how does it respect the source IP? What is on offer? Unlike the standard…
I have been using an OG Fitbit Sense for 3 years and have been consistently stoked with it. The watch just seemed to keep going with no issues until I took it off at some point with it low on battery, and I cannot for the life of me find it. So it seemed like as good a time as any to try out a new Fitbit, so with the Fitbit Charge 6 releasing recently, it was time to see if it would charge me. As an accessory Having used Sense for a long time, I was very used to…
Kindle has proven time and time again that it is the leader in e-readers. The ability for it to be a tablet that is easy to read as if it were actual paper, as opposed to a shiny tablet screen, has been borrowed by so many others. And now, with the proliferation of devices that you can write on to take notes, Amazon has stepped up their Kindle series with the Kindle Scribe to be a device for reading and writing. The question is, should you get one? It’s a bigger kindle https://youtu.be/QSl721wVaqI Even if you just want to use…
