X-Doria’s Defense Lux for iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus brings together refined luxury and durability to create the ultimate protective case. Defense Lux features a simple snap-on construction, engineered with a soft inner rubber layer, impact resistant polycarbonate backing, and machined with an aluminium outer frame.
The aluminium outer frame protects the perimeter of the iPhone, while inside, the soft rubber wraps around the phone protecting it from up to 6’6” drops on concrete, exceeding military drop test standards – MIL-STD-810G. For a sophisticated look, the case is available in luxurious faux carbon fibre, soft leather, canvas or microfiber rear panel.
All GEAR4 cases available from www.gear4.com or Carphone Warehouse. D3O® materials in their raw state flow freely when moved slowly, but on shock, lock together to absorb and disperse energy, before instantly returning to their flexible state. This reaction is counter intuitive. The greater the force of the impact, the more the molecules lock together and the greater the protection. Integrated into all GEAR4 Black phone cases, the case range is the first to use an injection moulded grade of D3O® technology to deliver increased impact protection per cubic millimetre than other leading materials.
A new design for the iPhone 7, the Carnaby offers protection without the bulk and features a mesh of colour matched D3O® on the back to add further protection, with style. It is also available for iPhone 7 Plus, and both cases are scratch resistant. Available in Gold, Rose Gold and Silver.
We have all had those boozy Christmas party nights when your phone becomes that extra little bit difficult to keep a hold of and slips through your fingers onto the dance floor or pavement with a ominous thud. Well now you have that bit of extra protection to ensure the hangover is the only thing you will be cursing the following morning.
In January it’s time to fight the bulge, whether that be getting out the running shoes or to get down the gym. Icy pavements or gym weights and machines are also perilous to unprotected mobile phones so be smart and wrap your device in one of the ultra-protective cases below.
The All Rounder – Cygnett WorkMate Pro Case for iPhone 7 (£19.95)
The WorkMate Protective Case for iPhone 7 offers full phone protection using dual complimentary materials as well as other ‘active’ user benefits such as the raised lip around the screen to protect your device as well as offer ‘lay flat protection’ when your device is face down. The WorkMate offers a more refined slimline designed case avoiding the bulkiness of other highly protective cases in the marketplace which sets it apart from all others. It is available in khaki green, white, black, red and grey.
Cygentt Real Curve 3D – Curved 9H Tempered Glass Screen Protectors (£19.95)
Offering edge-to-edge protection, the RealCurve features clear hardened glass, designed to perfectly match the curve of your iPhone screen. The six-layer construction provides maximum protection and ensures a quick, bubble-free application.

Up next is the Urbanista Berlin headphones.. We have been trying these out about a week now and overall they have been quite nice and comfortable, Preferably I wear cans but do like to dabble with these type too, however I prefer the pod type design over those buds which do not get on with me at all but having said that the inclusion of extra buds in some recent earphones I have tried have kind of fixed that issue for me and there is some really nice offerings out there and we will have some reviews coming up soon on our other earbuds that have arrived.
Packaging is pretty neat and one thing I like is good presentation they get a thumbs up here from me in that department. Contents is as expected,we have some information which is handy and we also get a cable for charging alongside the product itself.
They are good but I have seen better for less but nonetheless they are nice and work well and for the most as I have mentioned comfortable which is for me important,the only thing though is that when using at full volume for example you can get quite a bit of distortion depending on the music you are listening too and also not much bass, For me though I am the type of person that does listen at full volume which is probably not the smartest thing to do but I like my music that way and listen to it that way for a reason……………. So I cant hear anyone else.. The only time to do so would be when I got calls using these and for the most these where fine and nothing to disclose there, Calls where clear though I am on a network with HD calling which is pretty good quality…
As for functionality they have everything you need with an average battery life a quite good control unit with tactile buttons that you can easily navigate blindly and are on the money for sensitivity they all worked well, They are also easy to pair and there us a built in LED light to tell you when you are connected or if the headset is awaiting a connection, Also the grip is quite good and it feels good to hold and not slippy Here is also where the charging port is built in so for me it was all nicely placed and easy to use.

This time of year can be pretty strenuous for some and some folk may just forget about things rushing about getting things done and the scammers are out in force too with their stupid emails and so on and some folk may fall victim to these as we have heard on Radio in the recent days, Here is an email from my personal account that just arrived from a supposed PayPal help centre given I have no PayPal account…
The email itself though looks so ropey off the bat…. just check out the rest, An English lesson wouldn’t go astray………….
Its not been a particularly good year for Samsung after the Galaxy Note 7 debacle but the S7 and S7Edge are still popular and arguably the best smartphones to date from the company.As an owner of both devices they have served me well and I am now seeking something new and tend to move on with the latest,Would a new colour tempt me,probably not but now the S7 edge can be got in Black Pearl. Preferably the Blue coral would be my pick but I dont justify the cost right now for a new colourway and getting the same device again.. That was something I did back in the Nokia days when we had a Silver model,then a Black one would appear months later.
The glossy new colorway, which radiates quality and luxury, will be exclusive to 128GB versions of the device and debut in select markets on December 9.
The new Black Pearl Galaxy S7 edge follows the Blue Coral and Pink Gold editions released earlier this year. While those were largely inspired by calming, natural hues, Black Pearl was designed to be modern and striking. The sleek black finish blankets the entire device – edges and all – and adds depth to its glass design. The result is a stylish all-black aesthetic that captures the essence of the color in its purest form.
In addition to Black Pearl and the other aforementioned editions, the Galaxy S7 edge is also available in White Pearl, Black Onyx, Gold Platinum and Silver Titanium.
The ExoLens PRO Wide-Angle, Macro-Zoom and Telephoto lenses for iPhone 7 are all available along with an updated bracket for iPhone 7. The Wide-Angle and Telephoto lenses bring the aspherical lens technology previously reserved for high-end DSLR lenses, straight to your iPhone as a compact mobile accessory lens.
The ExoLens PRO Wide-Angle, Macro-Zoom and Telephoto lenses for iPhone 7 are all available along with an updated bracket for iPhone 7. The Wide-Angle and Telephoto lenses bring the aspherical lens technology previously reserved for high-end DSLR lenses, straight to your iPhone as a compact mobile accessory lens.
The ExoLens PRO Wide-Angle lens with Optics by ZEISS features a ZEISS Mutar™ 0.6x Asph T* Wide-Angle lens, which provides virtually no distortion and exceptional edge-to-edge contrast, resulting in an image quality that is unmatched by any other iPhone accessory lens. This lens helps professionals capture expansive scenery and immerse viewers with frame filling detail, while expanding the frame of the iPhone to see the world in a beautiful new perspective.
The ExoLens PRO Telephoto lens with Optics by ZEISS features a ZEISS Mutar™ 2.0x Asph T* Telephoto lens. The lens offers photographers a narrow shallow depth of field to add a beautiful bokeh to the background while focusing attention on the subject. The telephoto allows the contours of the face to appear more natural and closer to real life, and is ideal for portraits, street photography, or capturing events.
ExoLens PRO Macro-Zoom lens with Optics by ZEISS features the ZEISS Vario-Proxar 40-80 T* macro-zoom lens. The ZEISS Vario-Proxar 40-80 T* macro-zoom lens has a variable focal length of 40 to 80 millimeters. “In combination with the optics of the smartphone camera, turning the ring does not result in an increase or reduction of the field of view,” Optical Designer Dr. Vladan Blahnik from ZEISS explains. “Instead, the ring functions much like a manual focus with which different planes can be set. If photographers want to shoot objects that are three to five centimetres away, they turn the ring to the right as far as it will go, and to the left for objects that are five to eight centimetres away.” This allows users to capture objects measuring three to twelve centimetres filling the complete field of view and capture astonishing details beyond what is visible to the human eye to put you impossibly close to the subject.
The lenses are attached to the device-specific ExoLens® machined aluminium bracket using a screw thread. The bracket features a standard tripod mount (1/4”-20) as well as a cold shoe for mounting accessories such as microphones and lighting systems. Following the launch, ExoLens® PRO with Optics by ZEISS are now compatible with iPhone® 7, with the goal of adding more devices in the future.
