Over the last few years, we have seen the explosion in wire-free or wireless headphones and earbuds but more so over the last 16 months these categories have grown exponentially given the current pandemic known as COVID and more...

Let’s just get this out of the way now. Touchwiz; you either love it or hate it. My first Android smartphone was the original Samsung Galaxy S I9000 “iPhone killer”. I didn’t mind TouchWiz back then as I had nothing...

Realme first appeared as OPPO Real in 2010 as a sub-brand of OPPO. In 2018 the brand had become successful enough to venture off on its own becoming Realme. The company released its first phone as Realme in 2018...

Fetch TV's Mighty personal video recorder (PVR) aims to be "all your entertainment in one place", providing the ability to view & record Free To Air TV (via an antenna), view and record many popular subscription TV channels (SYFY,...

Wear OS smartwatches have stagnated and are not the greatest product ever produced by Google. Truthfully, they're far from it. There aren't too many other options for the majority of the world's smartphone owners - Android owners. Fitbit is one...

While the full review is a little way off, here's a sneak peak of what's in store. The IDEOS is a diminutive 3G/HSDPA-capable Android 2.2-powered handset with similar form factor to the HTC Wildfire. It's small, easily fits in the hand - and while it might lack some of the hardware polish of a more 'name-brand' device, the IDEOS - as you will soon see - holds its own, especially considering the bargain-basement price of $159 outright on the Crazy John's network. It's quick, snappy, functional, and importantly, performs well as a mobile phone as well as a mobile data device.

With everything making the inexorable move to "the Cloud", the boffins at Netgear clearly though this would be a good way to do security as well. I've been testing out the Netgear Arlo Pro for a couple of weeks...

I'm a tragic for a new gadget and the Ring Video Doorbell fit the bill when it first launched a few years ago. I didn't wait for the Australian launch, importing the unit from the US...and I love it....

JBL's Link Bar is a soundbar with Android TV built in, making it both the smartest soundbar and the largest Chromecast. Being a device with many features rolled into one, the question is whether it's greater than the sum...

One of the best things about modern phones in my opinion is the wireless charging via the Qi standard. The ability to easily just place a phone onto a pad and have it charge and then be able to...

Fully wireless earbuds - i.e. earbuds with Bluetooth and no connecting wires - are becoming increasingly popular across the market. Many of us at Ausdroid have made the move to the fully wireless lifestyle and I for one don't...

It's crunch time for HTC. After a disastrous 2011 in which they released a boatload of devices that were pretty much the same phone but a bit less dodgy, they decided to focus on one 'hero device' that would carry...

As a teenager I always wondered why my Dad burnt the BBQ meat all the time. As a father now I understand his pain all too well. You want to make sure it is cooked but then...

BlackBerry is a unique brand that brings to mind being successful and one of the true business leaders and forgers. It's a brand that - back in the day - made you feel you had made and accomplished many...

Gaming is an amazing way to pass the time; it’s an escape to another place whether it’s becoming an international sporting superstar, strategising your way to victory in an epic battle or becoming the hero in a first-person shooter....
