Sound reproduction is exceptionally clear and accurate across the audio spectrum, including a smooth and powerful bass that supports both traditional fidelity and current ultra-bass recordings. Passive external noise isolation is impressive, without needing to jam these earbuds into your skull or crank up the volume to death-defying levels.

I have some thoughts of my own on the matter and so I decided I would put them down and see what you all make of them. I will point out that his original title is at the least missing the word to, and possibly a question mark.

The Rebel Bluetooth Headphones allow you to listen to music from a mobile device wirelessly. The audio quality is not perfect but it is resonant and clear. My guess is that most consumers will find the sound perfectly acceptable. The middle range and bass are warm and luxurious, a real treat in a $70 set of BT over the ear headphones.

Once upon a time, games in iOS were deeply criticized for being bad, annoying, In-App-Purchase generating machines. This was largely accurate, and remains largely true today. But in 2014, a game called Monument Valley punched a hole right through the theory that iOS games had to be this way to succeed. Instead, it focused on beautiful art, deeply rich audio effects and music, outstanding logic puzzles, and inscrutable yet intensely relatable characters.

I love iHome Audio. They have built themselves a nice brand. I admit I had a slightly negative bias against them as “budget” — always finding their stuff on clearance at Big Lots. But I have been pleasantly surprised in the recent past with their speaker and headphone offerings, such as the iHome iB37 over-ear headphones.

When I received these two items, I figured, “It’s going to be tough to review these as separate units.” And I was right. The cables are exactly the same, except for color. They both work perfectly interchangeably and also in your computer of choice. The real difference between the two products is the charger. And the color — we can’t forget the color.

About a year ago I decided I was done with in-ear headphones. I’d tried at least 20 products in recent years and was never fully satisfied until I plugged a pair of these remarkable 1More headphones into my ears. I listened to pop, classical, ragtime. opera, folk. You name it, I added it to the mix. I was so impressed I found it hard to believe the company is selling them for $80 for two. It’s a great value.

My first impressions of the sound of the 1More Over-Ear MK801 headphone (MK801 hereafter) are based on direct comparisons to other headphones, particularly those that resemble its design (portables mostly), but also to a few premium headphones for reference. I’ll describe how I relate to the MK801 (i.e., my personal tastes and how I use the headphone) after covering all of the objective issues.

Back in 2011 I reviewed the Wacom Inkling. The Inkling was a pen and a clip which when used together digitized anything you wrote with the pen. To transfer the images to your computer you would sync the device with an app on said computer. Recently, Wacom released a very similar product called the Bamboo Spark. The Spark, like the Inkling, works with a specialized pen, that when used with the Spark portfolio, will digitize your drawings or writing. However, this time it uses an iOS or Android app for the transfer. How does it work? Read on.

When I first opened the box with the Tenba Cooper 13 DSLR inside, I knew I was in for something special. The bag itself came wrapped inside another bag! Very classy. Once I removed the Cooper and felt its fabric between my fingers, my first thought was this is going to be a great case to carry around. It’s a handsome slate grey on the outside, lined with a nylon interior. I’d consider the Cooper a messenger-style bag, and it also looks like a typical day-to-day bag.

Remember when there was pretty much one size for a tablet computer? When Apple came out with the original iPad it was 9.7-inches and the follow up Android tablets were much the same when they were released. Then in a desperate attempt to distinguish themselves from all the other Android tablets (and the iPad), the other companies started making them in different sizes.
