When we posted a week or so ago about Expansys' availability of the Sony SmartWatch 3, we began eagerly awaiting a review device which, we understand, is on its way to us. However, Ausdroid reader Marcus Kenny decided to...

We’ve had a few sets of “totally wireless” earbuds come through the Ausdroid team lately. Each with their own pros and cons, but I wasn’t prepared when the Jaybird Totally Wireless landed with me just how good they could...

LG's V50 ThinQ is the phone I wanted to like. In some areas, I actually do like it. It has a nice big display. The second screen has some scenarios where it can be useful, even. Unfortunately, though, for so...

I was expecting it, but when a delivery arrived with 3 Kindles on board I admit to having quite the grin. I’ve used Kindles and Kobo eReaders in the past, but my Kindle died many moons ago and...

The Android Wear ecosystem seems to have stalled a little this year, marred by delayed release of Wear 2.0 and a lack of devices from most major tech companies. That doesn’t mean we haven’t seen new devices or good...

There’s a lot of mobile accessories out there ranging from barely functional to ludicrously overpriced and when it comes to the essential mobile accessories, a good set of headphones or earphones is right up there. The problem I face...

Is it just a bigger version of the Galaxy SIII? So many people are confused right now with a seemingly never ending choice of phones on the market. I understand. In fact, we at Ausdroid go through the same...

It wasn't quite twelve months ago that Ausdroid first took a look at Arlo, the wire-free security cameras from Netgear. Phil reviewed the first generation product in June, and found the overall experience easy and simple to set...

While the original Yotaphone was nothing particularly exciting back in January 2014, it did introduce a new concept for Android mobility -- the inclusion of a second screen. We find second screens in many aspects of life now, with...

There are a couple of accessories that are becoming a must have with smart devices; fast chargers, good cables, battery packs and of course headphones. Furthermore, with OEMs seemingly content to be user hostile and remove the headphone jack,...

Last year Sony wowed everyone with their first foray into the noise cancelling true wireless headphones with the 1000XM3 but the one thing they lacked was any decent form of IP rating. This year Sony have have introduced...
