When Breo sent me a pair of the de Janeiros to try, they also included a fire engine red pair of their cheaper Natals. Quite frankly, even after nearly two months, I’m not sure what to think. And that’s sort of it., my thoughts after the jump.
TheMacFeed Reviews:
Screen protectors – a necessity for some, a nuisance for others. I personally have never really been a big fan of screen protectors, the majority of them either make the screen frustrating to use or give off a strange blue and red look. Just recently, I caught wind of a bubble-free, crystal clear screen protector for the iPad from Moshi. I quickly jumped on it, and I am glad I did as it is one of the best screen protectors I have ever used. Read the rest of this entry »
This will be without a doubt one of the simplest reviews I ever do on TheMacFeed. Michael over at Cyberguys sent me some samples of one of their newest products: the Ziotek Flexicord Mini. It’s one of those things that seems like a great a Secret Santa gift, or at least a practical one, which is a hell of a lot better than the USB drink cooler that got recalled recently. Anyways, my thoughts on the bendable iPod/iPhone cable after the jump. Read the rest of this entry »
There’s a bit of story around this review… When I stopped by Track Scan’s booth at CES there were quite a few models… including I suppose this one. There was that really stuck out though, a $50 model that provided audio quality on par with just about all the traditional headphones I had heard that day… TheMacFeed got the VIBRAS after CES all the way back in January… Daniel had them and for whatever reason couldn’t review these. For a while, it perplexed me. He has handled all the gaming headphones up until this point for a reason… I’m not a gamer. I’ll occasionally play some Madden or Forza, but I would never consider myself a gamer. Hence, he does all those reviews. This is however… my review.
Of all the cases available for the iPhone for, there are only a few that bill themselves as being rugged or particularly durable. OtterBox has long had a reputation for making excellent durable cases for a variety of phones. Earlier this year, I reviewed their Defender case for the iPhone 3G/3GS, and now I’ll be taking a look at their iPhone 4 case by the same name – The OtterBox Defender. Click the jump to read more.

It seems to be a growing trend within whatever segment of the market it is: a lifestyle accessory company. Names like: Nixon and WESC are the first of many that come to mind of companies who make watches, clothes, bags and… headphones. I’m not sure what the appeal is for companies to do that and some part of me believes that it isn’t as lucrative as it might seem given that branding superpowers like Monster Cable have shied away. Still, here’s another. This one comes from Breo, a British company that I really haven’t heard of. Still, I hadn’t heard of Thinksound, and we all know how that turned out. Today, my thoughts on their cutely named, de Janeiro headphones.
When it comes to skins for electronics GelaSkins is the first company that comes to mind, but just recently I heard a new name… SmirkAbout. Who are they? They are an Australian-based company that just recently launched in December 2009 in direct competition with GelaSkins, a much more mature company that has a bit more experience under its belt. Does that necessarily make them better? My side-by-side comparison after the break… Read the rest of this entry »
