The JOURNEY NEXA LIFT is a protective everyday carry item that pulls a lot more duty when traditional sleeves are idle.
“When people who need to work on their laptops have less to pack, carry, and unpack, their transition to work mode is much easier.”– JOURNEY
NEXA LIFT’s adjustable phone stand equips laptop carriers with vital additional screen space for video calls and more.
Laptop carriers who protect their device inside the sleeve can also wirelessly fast charge their earbuds (up to 5W) and iPhone (up to 15W) on NEXA LIFT’s wireless charging panel.
This means for those like me you will need less cables to carry with you when travelling locally or away which is ideal and thie thing here is it already acts as a laptop protector too on the go with premium materials making the whole product a compact work machine and the sleeve can be used as a mouse mat also.
If you have wireless earbuds this is an extra treat along with your smartphone that when placed on this it can be used as a second screen to do other tasks whilst working on your laptop and overall a great idea executed well like their other poducts we have tested recently.
JOURNEY said it is designed to support laptop carriers to quickly set up high-functioning places of work with minimal carry equipment.
“When people who need to work on their laptops have less to pack, carry, and unpack, their transition to work mode is much easier,” said JOURNEY’s spokesperson. “They’re better equipped for efficient device activity too.”
NEXA LIFT is a mousepad and mini desk mat too.
NEXA LIFT heralds JOURNEY’s latest expansion into multi-purpose lifestyle accessories for busy device users.
For me this is a great product and simple to use making life much easier on the go or even at home offering two more built in charging options meaning less cable to carry which is often lost or fogotten and with this you are sure not to run out of charge if you do so and very practical piece of kit to have at your disposal
Features
Expandable edges for secure laptop storage and retrieval
Stylish split-material aesthetic
Exterior surface doubles as a mousepad and desk mat
Available in midnight (very dark blue) and light grey
The HP OfficeJet Pro 9135e is positioned as the flagship of HP’s latest OfficeJet lineup, designed specifically for heavy-duty home offices and small businesses. It replaces the popular 9025e, bringing subtle but meaningful refinements in speed, security, and paper handling.
If you are looking for a “laser alternative” that can handle high-volume document workflows without the bulk of a toner-based machine, this is one of the strongest contenders on the market and comes with a very nice external touchscreen display and also you can print direct from your mobile phone or laptop via the HP Print app which works really well.

The Mangoal OEM MG-006C-1BA is a dual dashcam kit featuring front 4K and rear Full HD cameras, powered via your vehicle’s OBD port rather than the traditional cigarette-lighter cable. The unit comes with a 128GB microSD card, adhesive mounting, and uses the SkyCamm mobile app (iOS/Android) for setup, live view, and playback.
Mangoal, founded in 2013, specialises in OEM dash cams and wireless chargers compatible with over 15+ global car brands and 1,000+ models. Their devices hold CE, RoHS, and FCC certifications.
Installation & App (SkyCamm)
The installation process was more straightforward than expected. Using the OBD connector eliminates the need to hardwire into the fuse box or battery. Cables tucked away cleanly, creating a professional, near-invisible finish — a big plus over suction-cup models.
front
rear
⚠️ Tip: Always check your vehicle model before purchasing the OBD cable — some cars (e.g., Mazda 6) may require specific connectors.
The SkyCamm app connects via Wi-Fi (not your home network). It’s user-friendly, offering live viewing, video downloads, and configuration for recording resolution, loop duration, and voice alerts. Tutorials show car-specific installation steps, making the setup accessible even for first-time installers.

Camera Quality & Footage Analysis
Testing covered day and night recording on an Android phone (downloaded footage), and viewed on a Windows laptop, and a 55-inch 4K television. The front camera produced sharp, true-4K imagery (3840 × 2160 px), while the rear unit, though advertised as 2K, recorded at Full HD (1920 × 1080 px) — still clear but worth noting.

Strengths
True 4K front camera delivers crisp, high-detail footage.
Clean, wire-free installation using OBD power.
Free SkyCamm app is intuitive and feature-rich.
128 GB card included (a welcome bonus).
Dual-channel continuous recording with event lock.
Limitations
Rear camera records at Full HD, not the advertised 2K.
1-year warranty feels short for the price bracket.
Adhesive mount makes repositioning difficult once fixed.
Verdict
The Mangoal MG-006C-1BA dash cam kit stands out for its 4K front recording, discreet OBD installation, and simple app control. While the rear camera isn’t true 2K and the warranty is modest, the overall package offers excellent visual quality and seamless installation.
Based on TechBuzz Ireland’s real-world testing, a 128GB card provides around 11 hours of dual-camera footage before automatically overwriting older files — typical behaviour for continuous loop recording. This is ideal for drivers seeking a permanent, tidy setup with reliable 4K recording.
The WOLFANG Indoor Security Camera model WSO1 is an affordable in house security camera with two tricks up its sleeve others that do not have and at a super affordable price.
The camera can be mounted on a wall or a flat surface and it will need a power outlet nearby you can either use a micro sd card or purchase the cloud storage option which gives a free trail to begin with. The camera can be turned in any direction you need and only works on a 2.4ghz Wi-Fi connection like most do.
Setting up takes a few minutes and once set up and settled where you want it then you can adjust to your needs and leave it sit there and do its job.
The camera itself has all the features you would expect from a security camera and more and gives good clairty audio and video day or night as you will see in the footage below in the video review.
For me with this camera it not only picks up sound even if nothing is seen on video it also gives you a very accurate description of what it sees and again this is shown in the video review below.
For me this is a worth home securtiy camera to have i your home and now has me interested in more of what they have to offer and you should cehck the company out.

The Status Audio Pro X earbuds are the company’s latest flagship release, aimed squarely at listeners who prioritize exceptional audio quality above all else. Building on the foundation of their previous models (like the Between 3ANC), the Pro X delivers a technically impressive and immersive listening experience, not tested the previous models and can see no reason to need to do so after testing these out.
The single biggest selling point of the Pro X is its internal hardware: a hybrid triple-driver system in each earbud. This setup includes a large 12mm dynamic driver for powerful, controlled bass, and two Knowles balanced armature drivers dedicated to handling the mid-range and high frequencies.
Detail and Clarity: This multi-driver approach pays off immediately. The audio fidelity is fantastic, offering outstanding clarity and resolution. You can pick up nuances, instrumental separation, and vocal textures that often get lost in single-driver earbuds.
Tuning: Out of the box, the sound signature is dynamic and engaging, featuring deep, tight bass that doesn’t overwhelm the clear mids and crisp, detailed highs. For those who like to customize, the companion app offers an 8-band equalizer (EQ) and presets, including the well-regarded “Knowles Preferred” curve.
Hi-Res Audio: The inclusion of advanced Bluetooth codecs like LDAC (for Android users) and the future-proof LC3 means the Pro X can stream high-resolution audio (up to 24-bit/96 kHz), truly utilizing the capability of the triple drivers.
Status has refined the design, making the Pro X significantly smaller and lighter (about 20% smaller) than its predecessors.
Fit: They maintain the unique, stemmed, elliptical design but sit more snugly in the ear. While they no longer use the silicone “fitwings,” the ergonomic shape, combined with the multiple included eartips, ensures a secure and comfortable fit for most users, even during long listening sessions and always check for the best tips the ones on might not be the best for everyone.
Build: They are rated IP55 for water and dust resistance, making them durable enough for gym use and everyday weather.
Controls: The touch controls are reliable and responsive and no issues after some time using them like any other earbuds it is all about the thumb memory.
The Pro X offers hybrid Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) that is a massive improvement over previous Status models.
ANC Performance: The ANC is highly effective, especially at canceling out consistent low-frequency noises like airplane engines or office hums, reaching up to -52dB of reduction. It’s solid for daily commutes and focusing, overall decent especially in low noise enironments where you can get the best experience.
Transparency Mode: The ambient/transparency mode is functional but can sound a bit “artificial” compared to industry leaders.
Call Quality: Call clarity is excellent thanks to six beam-forming microphones and Voiceloom AI speech enhancement technology, which effectively suppresses background noise during calls.
Connectivity: Features like Multipoint connectivity (allowing simultaneous connection to two devices), Google Fast Pair, and Microsoft Swift Pair work flawlessly and are great for hybrid work. They use the latest Bluetooth 5.3 standard.
Battery Life: Status claims up to 8 hours of playback per charge, with 24 hours total from the case. This will vary per user and their setting as with any earbuds or headphones ANC does impede greatly on any.
Charging: The case supports both USB-C charging and wireless (Qi) charging ideal for those like me who has adopted this all over my house and office.
The Status Audio Pro X earbuds are designed for the audio enthusiast— A person who can tell the difference between a high-bitrate stream and a standard one. As having the biggest range of earbuds reviewed in Ireland I can confirm these are the dogs, you know what.

The ARIA 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Station is the latest Qi2-certified charger from Australian consumer electronics brand JOURNEY. No stranger to 3-in-1 wireless chargers which we hace covered countless models of this is the latest one to hit the market and we have been testing it out.
ARIA, a follow-on from SWIV, GLYDE, and other portable JOURNEY chargers, features a distinctive hinged build that endows it to freely pivot between flatlay and phone stand mode.
In flatlay mode – within which ARIA folds into a fraction of its fullest size – the Apple-certified charger simultaneously fast charges a phone and AirPods together.
In phone stand mode, it flips out to vertical architecture, standing a phone, and delivering fast wireless charging to three devices – phone, earbuds, and an Apple Watch.
The flagship fast charger includes faster charging speeds (up to 15W for Qi2-certified iPhones and other phones), precise magnetic alignment for more efficient energy transfer, more user-friendly manual charging experiences, and enhanced safety.
Check out our hands on review down below for more.

The JOURNEY ALTI LIFT Wireless Charging Desk Mat is a premium kit to have at your home or office desk set up taking up less space making things more comfortable and requiring less cables and giving you fast wireless charging for two devices.
ALTI LIFT features a double-sided surface (felt and vegan performance leather), an interior hideaway pocket for loose documents, and black and beige colour varieties. This can be set up either side or for left and right handed people which is also excellent giving you a choice of surface to work on both are better than an oak desk like what I use.
Its Qi2-certified wireless charging panel, which attaches to either side of the mat, simultaneously delivers up to 15W to Qi2-certified iPhones (including iPhone 12 onwards) and 5W for AirPods. this will also work on other compatible phones and earbuds it must be noted and not specific to Apple and was tested with several products.
You can charge your phone on the flat portion if you like but it is cated towards earbuds however the phone stand is where it is at as this can be place basically any way you see fit and can also be used closed it also serves a second screen for the likes of watching your social media emails or perhaps watching videos whilst keeping less tabs open on your laptop or PC.
Overall this is really nice kit to have in your set-up and it is high quality compared to some similar offerings I have seen, check the video below for more.
The OneOdio Studio Max 1 Wireless Over-Ear DJ Headphones are a pair of ove-ear cans that impress from a listening experience via a mobile in my tests as I have no DJ equipment they have been tested on both Android and iOS and with not having a companion app which is dissapointing they still deliver on audio and its all good.
The build quality is great here and not too heavy eiather with plus cups that cover the ears nicely and block out much of the external noise with not having ANC listed on the specs, having said that if you are at home and turn these up to the max you will hear NOTHING!!
These also fold up and you get a nice carry bag inside along with all the extra cables and a dongle and they have ultra low latency which is 20ms with wired connectivity via 3.5mm/6.35mm jacks for instruments like guitars and keyboards and so on which again I do not own.
The OneOdio Studio Max 1 are equipped with 50mm drivers featuring OFC copper-clad coils, these headphones deliver deep bass and crystal-clear highs, lows and mids are fine and all genres tested in my usual test run these did not dissapoint even down to to hearing more intricate details than you would not expect to which was a win for me and when the volume is turned up to the max you will be impressed and I can only imagine how they would sound in a DJ set up and so on. Calls also sounded great during my testing and clear both ends again maxed out volume which is how I prefer to use my earbuds and headphones.
There is some controls on the right cup being your power on/off volume up and down skip and reverse tracks and play and pause, there is also the option to change modes, there is 4 in total and access to your voice assistant and the keys work really well. you also have your headphone socket and USB-C charge port.
