Two layered case protects from bumps, scrapes and drops
This tough protective case has been designed for those with an active lifestyle. It provides great shock and impact absorption thanks to its lightweight TPU polymer with a precisely positioned hard skeleton for added protection. The design of the exoskeleton extends out to protect vulnerable parts of your Nokia 7 Plus such as the corners and sides.
Features an impact-resistant polycarbonate exoskeleton
This dual-layer case features a tough exoskeleton, which covers the back and vulnerable corners of your phone from damage. They are made from an impact-resistant, polycarbonate plastic shell protecting your Nokia 7 Plus from accidental damage – keeping it looking as good as it did when you bought it.
Textured grid finishing improves grip and comfort
Complementing the protective properties of the polycarbonate shell is a textured finish, which not only helps to improve grip when holding the handset, but also makes it more comfortable in the palm of your hand.
Portable flip-out stand for landscape viewing
The dual-layer case’s hard exoskeleton doesn’t just add strength to the shell, but features an ergonomically designed stand that pulls out to give the perfect viewing angle for watching media, web browsing and reading. The stand then simply clicks back into place and lays completely flat so there is zero extra bulk added to the case.
Cut-outs for the main ports and features of the phone
This tough protective case has been designed specifically for the Nokia 7 Plus and has cut-outs for the main ports and features of the smartphone such as the camera with flash. The power and volume buttons are covered, but remain functional while encased to give unbeatable protection.
The box looks sporty and funky, highlighting the key features in terms of sweat resistance and a battery life up to 9 hours. The unit earbud type is light and the sticky gels stand out; not your typical black or white earphone colours. The unit design allows the cable to be kept out of sight / harm’s way when travelling but allowing the cable to be pressed into a ͞passage along the top of the neckband.

Overview – The Skullcandy sport is a stylish neckband-style wireless headphone available is a few colours e.g. Navy, White. The wire to the ear appears light weight which has the potential to wear down. The build quality in terms of the plastic did not excite to touch, while the larger buttons was a bonus to operate.
The unit fitted snugly into the ear (using the correct size of Silicone Ear Gels), the audio quality from music and calls was impressive for the cost of the unit. The sweat-resistant design is a must for gym or active lifestyle and that they won’t fall off. The Skullcandy Sport has comfort and convenience of no dangling wires, with a good battery life that won’t break the bank.
Sony has changed its design in the new Xperia XZ2 family to what they call “Ambient flow” instead of the “Loop Surface” design from previous Xperia’s like the XZ1 Series. I liked the old design but the new design gives the phone a more curved rear surface allowing it to fit in your hand more naturally. I did find the phone slippy so its worth getting a case for the phone. It feels very premium and solid with the metal frame and Corning Gorilla Glass5 making it look very sleek. It took me around a day to get used to the placement of the rear fingerprint scanner as on the previous Xperia’s it was on the side of the phone. Its great Sony has kept the dedicated camera button as it has on other Xperia’s, on the side is the power button and volume rocker, which were both easily used when the phone is in your hand.
I didn’t think that the phone would fit so well in the hand as it does as it weights 198g and its thickness 11.1mm but it feels comfortable in the hand. On the top of the phone is a microphone and a tray for the Nano Sim Card and Micro SD, its handy that no pin is needed to remove the tray, there is also a LED for notifications above the screen. At the bottom is another microphone and the USB-C port as there is no headphone jack Sony have bundled and USB-C headphone adapter in the box. The Xperia XZ2 is rated for IP65/68 so its water-resistant and dust-proof, so no need to worry about getting it wet in the odd shower of rain we get in Ireland.
SCREEN The Xperia XZ2 has a Full HD+ 1080p IPS LCD HDR screen with a 18:9 aspect ratio and increased its screen size to 5.7 inches from the previous Xperia XZ1 so that 13% larger (2160 x 1080 pixels which gives a pixel density of 424 ppi), you can watch HDR video content from YouTube. Again Sony bring their Bravia Television technology to their Xperia devices to improve the screens display with TRILUMINOS and X-Reality features as well as being able to convert non-HDR content to near HDR. The screen gave quiet good viewing angles and even in direct sunlight the screen was viewable without any problems, theres plenty of options in the Display settings like White balance and Colour gamut and contrast allowing you to tweak the display to the way you like. Sony had also added a neat feature called Night Light which cuts down on blue light so it should make it easier to fall asleep at night. AUDIO Sony brings plenty of their audio tech to the Xperia XZ2 like DSEE HX, LDAC Hi-Res Audio, ClearAudio+ and S-Force Front Surround Sound. It also has something Sony call Dynamic Vibration System which gives the Xperia XZ2 a rumble feedback like you would find in a PlayStation controller when there is audio playing either in music or watching movies or games. I found the feature most useful when playing games as it adds to the overall gameplay. As I mentioned above Sony have followed other phone makes and have removed the headphone jack so you will need to use the included adapter if using wired headphones, it’s a pity the Xperia XZ2 doesn’t support wired digital noise cancelling headphones like the MDR-NC31EM or MDR-NC750. The Xperia XZ2 Stereo speakers which Sony say are 20% louder compared to the Xperia XZ1 and the Stereo Speakers are definitely a step up in loudness.
CAMERA The Xperia XZ1 and XZ2 have a 19Mp Motion Eye single-lens cameras, but Sony has made some enhancements in the Xperia XZ2 with its new image signal processor which Sony developed with Qualcomm. The rear camera is 25 mm wide with Sony G Lens F2.0 with laser aufofocus. Like all Xperia’s when you open the camera app its default mode is the Superior Auto mode which tries to automatically recognize the scene the camera is looking at and apply the correct settings for it. There is a manual mode when you can change settings like ISO, White Balance, Exposure, Shutter Speed and Auto Focus. I found the Auto mode quite good at quickly selecting the correct scene when opening the camera app and taking good quality photos, it gave good color reproduction and keeps the images sharp in the situations that I used the camera. The Camera apps section where you can have AR effects in your photos, or ‘Bokeh’ app which puts the subject in focus and background out of focus. For videos there are plenty of options on how you want to record your videos, like color and brightness, Video resolution, Object tracking and Steadyshot. I found Steadyshot very good at keeping the video smooth even when your moving.
The Xperia XZ2 can record in 4K HDR, the videos recorded with these settings did keep a lot of detail and color compared to videos recorded in HD. The Xperia XZ2 supports Full HD slow motion video recording at 960fps, in practice I found it a bit tricky to get slow motion videos, as it does take a bit of practice.Xperia XZ2 Slow Motion
BATTERY The Xperia XZ2 made some improvements in the battery department increasing its capacity to 3180mAh (compared to 2700 mAh in the Xperia XZ1). The Xperia XZ2 also supports Qi Wireless charging (Qi Mid 9w) as well as Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0. As we keep our smartphones for longer now Sony have a feature called Battery Care which learns you charging routine and instead of charging the phone quickly it slow charges the phone which increases the lifespan of the phones battery. I was getting 2 days of usage from a full charge with “Stamina mode” enabled. PERFORMANCE The Xperia XZ2 runs Android Oreo 8.0 out of the box, while I used the phone it was very smooth as its running Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 845 with 4GB of RAM and 64 internal storage. I had no issues when switching between different apps. Sony has a light skin on Android so they should be quick enough to release patches as they are following Googles A/B (Seamless) System Updates. Bluetooth 5.0 is supported. They also have carried on their 3D creator app from the Xperia XZ1 which allows you to create 3D scans and make avatarsfrom them it’s a pretty nifty app. Aligning with the PlayStation brand the Xperia XZ2 allows PS4 Remote Play so you can connect to your PS4 in your home, you also get a 12 month free PlayStation plus subscription included with the Xperia XZ2 which is a nice extra.

This product is marketed as “aims to provide innovative products that assist consumers with their daily household chores, leading to a more comfortable and enjoyable life.” The robotic vacuum cleaner looks solid, surrounded by a soft bumper with rugged wheels. The unit came with a variety of accessories; side brush, remote control, water reservoir.
Box Contains:
1x Floor cleaning robot DEEBOT OZMO 610, 1x OZMO water tank, 2x Washable and reusable microfiber cleaning cloths, 4x Side brushes, 2x Dust filter, 1x Direct suction attachment, 1x Manual, 1x Cleaning tools, 1x Charging dock.
Features:
Smart Cleaning Path with less missing
OZMO mopping system for superior cleaning
V-shaped main brush for more lifting
Selective cleaning modes for various messes
App Control DEEBOT, anytime, anywhere
Stair Safety Technology
Auto Start at One Touch
Specifications:
Noise Level: The noise level, 65 dB is too loud to have running in the same room if you are sleeping but when the unit was used downstairs during the night with the doors closed the sound was not heard.
Battery Charging:
The DM88-BYD, 3000mAH battery gives 110 minutes of run time on a full charge. This takes approx. 4 hours to fully recharge. There is the option to have the unit return to the charging dock via the remote, alternative when the units battery power gets low, DEEBOT automatically returns to its docking station, by itself. The location is memorised, and cleaning continues from where it left off. There does not appear at present an option to purchase a replacement battery (which may be required after 3 / 4 years use).
Mopping System:
The Ecovacs Deebot OZMO 610 robot vacuum has a reservoir that holds 300 milliliters of water, which is managed by a smart water pump that prevents leaks from occurring. There is small suite of sensors to ensure that the vacuum mop mode only runs on hard floors, and it keeps the microfiber mop pad from becoming saturated and subsequently ineffective. There is a smart cleaning pad with interchangeable suction inlet, allowing different floor type cleaned.
The DEEBOT- 0zmo 610 can manoeuvre to conquer difficult locations between chairs / tables / stair drops with ease using multiple sensors that distinguishes the dangers. The heavy-duty wheels can climb 0.6-inch thresholds. The unit has a bumper rail with infrared anti-collision sensors to avoid obstacles. The stair safety technology has anti-drop sensors to clean around stairs without the risk of falling. This unit is low enough to clean under some sofas, which in the past had to be manually pulled out, cleaned, washed and then pushed back in place.
The Brand:
ECOVACS ROBOTICS has been around since before 2006 refocusing on research and development, design, manufacture and the sales of robotic home appliances. Their R&D team has over 100 engineers and specialists hold 345 trademarks and over 1,000 patents in China and overseas.
Warranty: One-year manufacturer’s warranty, this is one gripe with this unit as the build quality and design should affirm a 3-year warranty within Europe, rather than a 1 year.
Compare models:
Setup – first use.
The unit requires minimum knowledge to setup; this required a few accessories fitted to the unit (a quick start guide supplied). This unit has an auto start, one touch of a button and simple start button which allows you to instantly start the clean. Press once, then DEEBOT immediately gets to work. The unit can also be controlled via the supplied remote,
3 – Edge cleaning mode (Clean the edges and corners in a room)
App – Programming the Robot
The Deebot can be programmed weekly to clean multiple times per day at specific times using the Ecovacs app. The Ecovacs app has got 2.5 out of 5 stars. The main reasons for dropping stars is “App invasive permissions / lack of push notification” (to tell you if the vacuum needs assistance). The app allows control of the DEEBOT, anytime, anywhere ensuring when you return from home the house has been cleaned in advance.
Maintenance:
The maintenance on the unit is basic and requires no technical knowledge. The brushes can be removed. Removal of the reservoir, cleaning cloth, etc. are easy to remove and clean under a tap as required. The Ecovacs accessories are freely available on Amazon at reasonable prices (except the battery).
Industry Norm:
Any of the main manufacturers that currently do a SWOT analysis on the market should see this versatile technology as the key threat to their business. This technology only used for a week, leaves traditional vacuum cleaners in the dust. This technology is not a ‘should I get one or not?’ question, it’s what model I should get? You would still need a basic vacuum cleaner for stairs, cobwebs on the ceiling, dust on the skirting board, etc. (The ECOVACS ROBOTICS DEEBOT R98 would work for all areas). The features of this technology can still be done manually, while the same can be said for a dishwasher, but why waste time and energy doing work that can be automated.
This robotic vacuum cleaner is like using Sky+, satellite navigation or VR glasses for the first time – WOW. The DEEBOT- 0zmo 610 works and it’s hard to go back to traditional methods once used.
The DEEBOT- 0zmo 610 does what the marketing team states; ‘provide innovative products that assist consumers with their daily household chores, leading to a more comfortable and enjoyable life’. Does it clean as well as a traditional cleaner / mop & bucket? This works and makes life easier and unless the floors are tested with a microscope I found no issues on DEEBOT- OZMO 610 cleaning ability. This is a major thumbs up for this product and a product / technology highly recommended.
I have used several headsets from Skullycandy now and they keep on delivering which is a good thing to see. The Hesh 3 have a similar appearance to the Crusher Wireless but on a cheaper pricepoint and when it comes to comfort and sound they are probably just as good though and to take away those looks of the Crusher Wireless grey and tan version which you can see a comparison of those in both flavours right HERE
UNBOXING
Presentation – As seen above they come well presented with one thing missing that should have been there which was a carry case but its not something to make you look elsewhere because everything after that is good. Nice packaging, detailed information and all the usual cables required inside.
Build Quality – Well build light and robust one could say and easy enough to keep clean,the joints seem lasting too and from past experience with similar they do hold up once you look after them and don’t throw them around. One thing as pointed out there is no carry case with them so just take it easy,they will take a few knocks but for how long is another story.
Design – They are minimalistic if you will and look quite the standard but that’s the trend and for the price point its fine, they fold up for transport purposes and should be safe,I would advise a carry case if you have on spare in the house just to be safe.
Controls – Simple and effective all on one side but no autoplay or pause here,buttons are raised aplenty so you will easily navigate blindly here after some time using them,they are clicky so you will know you have actually hit something.
Battery level – None as such but your android phone which is what we use will give you a level or juice left,there is an indicator level on the cup above the controls which will give you a connectivity status showing Blue or Red.
Sound – They sound quite good overall and the average user will be pleased here but the real audiophiles might find bass being the prominent feature here but then many of us like bass, Of course you can adjust tunes to your own taste via your phone for the pricepoint though you cant go wrong, The headphones have no active ANC but the cups really do a good job sealing the ears quite well and at the same time not feeling clamped either.
With 22hrs of battery life and 4 hours of play with just 10 minutes of charging these offer plenty for your first pair of decent headphones and also very comfortable for long term use.
On first seeing such earbuds with the Jabra Elite Sport I initially thought these would not fit not stay in my ears but I was wrong,they have actually turned out to be very useful and used now when out and about much of the time and when the 65t came to surface they had my interest straight away and I actually find them as good if not better than the sport…
These are a bit smaller which for me was better and a better fit albeit tight at first and as before it took a few minutes to get used to their fit and after some time you would forget they are there but have the fear of loosing one at some stage but they have not managed to drop out at any stage just like their processors which is good.
There is two buttons on the left which control the volume and also allows you to skip tracks when listening to them via your phone or tablet or whatever device you might have connected. The right side has one button being the whole front if you will but not a visual button which allows HEAR THROUGH which is activated by the Sound plus app which gives you more functionality and control you can also play pause from the right side and take calls too which are pretty much crisp and clear from testing and this applies to both ends.
Set Up
Setting up was easy as expected and what I love as with most of Jabra tech you have voice instructions to help you along but all you need to do is press and hold each side for a few seconds and follow the voice prompts and anyone familiar with Jabra products will know what I am talking about when it comes to set up.
Battery Life
It is not the longest compared to headphones or others out there but for their size its great giving you around 5 hours but then you have the charging pouch that comes with it giving you up to 2 full charges on the go so they are ideal for anyone and easily one full day heavy use and fine for commuters whom have long commutes for work and so on.
Sound Quality
Perhaps it might be my ears but these sounded better than the Elite Sport and very crisp,calls where also good,although there is no sound controls bar the volume on the unit itself there is the choice of equalizer on your phone and then you have the option to use the Sound Plus app which will enhance the default setting they came at,all sounds be it highs lows and mids where reproduced well here and again I found them better overall in this department too for giving good clarity throughout and that added boom with volume, Many earbuds I have tested sounded tinny in some scenarios but these did at some stages but this was at the default setting but some adjustments in the sound plus app fixed that once and for all..
Hear Through
This is not a new technology but more manufacturers are taking in on board but have their own take,Jabra have used this before and in short it allows you to let the outside noise in but also letting you listen to your music etc, This is ideal again for commuters or cyclists who need to have their wits about them on receiving information for example at an airport,bus tation or railway station however this would impact on your volume and experience but this feature is there for a reason and rightly so and should be used so I cant see anyone complain about it.
Overall thoughts
First off i did not like the buds that came attached but you have three pairs to pick from but as a tester I try all and go straight in but just like the elite sport there was a set of buds that fit me perfectly and they do a good job of sealing the outside environment quite good, They did feel strange for a while as any new earbuds do but after some time you forget they are there.
The sound is great and most levels and especially loud and they offer simple to use controls and much of that is just a tap away rather than fiddling with the standard flush or raised buttons we are custom to. They are small and light and stand out from whats out there today and people have stopped and asked me what are them things in your ears.
From someone who disliked earbuds or in-ears I have slowly taken this form on board and now beginning to use such much more as my daily drivers and experince a truely wireless experience with little fuss about fucntionality. I am known for the fondness of Overheads and Overear for example the JABRA VEGA headphones but they are the ones I leave at home these days and use the likes of Jabra when I am out and about but also when working at home I can connect to my PC or leave connected on my mobile phone keeping my hands free to do other tasks and commitments I do from my home office.
Over the last year or two I have been reviewing Edifier products and they are all quality made products that last, I actually have a surround system set up in-house still and one thing I have not tested from the company is their headphones, this has changed the Edifier 830 BT headphones landed and just like their other products these are good and give quality in both sound and build.
UNBOXING THE EDIFIER 830BT
They come well presented in a nice package covered with a sleeve only to be then presented well again with an inner box then when you open it you are presented with a hard case which is certainly most welcome and ideal for travel, included inside is your usual cables and instructions which can also fit inside the carry case in a small pouch should you need them.
Build Quality
Just like other products they are built well and should last some years if you are careful with them and use the protective case when you are meant to and not leave them lying around and so on. The headband is covered both sides with padding and soft synthetic leather which is really comfortable which also matches the cups which again are really comfortable for long-term use. Either side we have a slider system to adjust the bands which will fit any head and they do not clamp onto your head which is nice,comfort is a certainty here for any user. These are foldable to so compact and come with a carry case as mentioned before.
The arms either side are housed in plastic along with the outer sides of the cups themselves surrounded with a nice silver trim which complements the headset as a whole. The cups do swivel aplenty so they will rest nicely with anyone and not feel clamped they rest really well and will be ideal for those who use headphones for long periods of time.
Controls
Both cups have the Edifier branding in silver which looks well complementing the Silver band around them controls are near flush on the right cup which allow you power on/off skip tracks and also control the volume, I did find these take a slight be longer to turn on than other headsets I have tested but it’s no big deal. On the right we also have a mic for taking calls which are quite clear during my test period this can be said for both ends.
Also we have an LED indicator light, blue/red to tell us our status on connectivity and powering on/off. There is no battery indicator or voice instructions here but when connected to your phone you will be a percentage level,however when powering on/off you will hear two short beeps and the red LED will flash 3 times.
On the left we have our 3.5mm jack and charging port via micro USB again flush with the cup itself.On using the controls you will need some time to get used to their position especially blindly but after a while you will be fine considered how near flush they are, Also you have the NFC logo here for pairing NFC devices.
Sound
I like my music loud and these are loud which I expected from the company so they did not let me down here, I was please will all aspects when it came to quality and reproduction of all formats and volume levels mids,lows,and highs came through crisp and clear this can be said across the board with my usual activities such as taking calls,you tube streaming music and listening to music stored on my device, The average person here will be well pleased with the performance here.

Conclusion
Over the last two years Edifier is a brand I can trust personally from testing quite a few of their products and I am really pleased with these headphones, Headphones are something I am a huge fan of and will not hold back on my thoughts no matter who the manufacturer is and they have ticked all the boxes here for me, With the 95 hr music playback this is a must have for those who have long commutes this is really a good selling point here and they have only been charged once since i got them and that says alot considered how much I use them.
You can pair two devices to these too which is also good via NFC and Bluetooth so if you are using a separate music player or laptop for example with your phone both can be used together,again a good feature for those whom work and like to do other things be it on the go or at home like pairing your laptop for example and your phone. For the price point these are a safe bet and a good purchase you will not be disappointed with. One thing I would like to see is other colours than the typical industry standard they came in for me.
