Tech Review – QDOS SNAPSTAND 3-in-1 foldable MagSafe charging stand

The QDOS SNAPSTAND 3-in-1 foldable MagSafe charging stand is ideal if you have multiple products in use at one time so like me with a watch,earbuds and several phones on the go this is ideal in more ways than one.

Key factor here is that it is foldable and and can fit in your travel bag and pocket and the next thing is you only need one cable and no proprietary cable to carry for your Apple or compatible watch and other cables so this is a one stop shop to charge 3 devices at once.

This is also very light however it is robust and not a cheaply made product and is made with 60% recycled metal and this is of course thinking of the environment today like many manufacturers are trying to do.

This is perfect for my workspace as I can also use it to interact with my phone beside me without the need to hold my phone and again ideal for my bedside locker.

Another great feature is this can be moved into several positions unlike others that are fixed so it will cater for more devices than you might first think.

Overall this is a must have product at your disposal if you are one to have several devices or compatible gadgets on the go or at home and this means less plugs and cable and more importantly less space is taken up.

Tech Review – New Bee Z12 RGB Headphones Stand Holder With Wireless Charging

The New Bee Z12 RGB Headphones Stand Holder with Wireless Charging is a multifunction stand that can charge several devices at once and looks cool on any desk you can also data transfer if you wish but I can see this being used as mainly a charging device and also decorative for a setup you might have or just starting out with one.

It takes about two minutes to set up and you are good to go and comes with a USB charging cable so you just need to find a plug or spare socket on an existing device or even your own laptop or PC.

Once set up you have all your ports on the back and a power switch that doubles as the RGB light control which you can see how all of this works in the video review below, it gives a nice glow to your workspace or bedside locker for example with all the colours available and breathing light for nice effects.

The headphones stand itself is not wireless charging but you can simply connect a cable to the main unit and charge there, then you have wireless charging which can charge your earbuds and even mobile phones which for me is quite handy at my desk and now shall remain part of my set up to store headphones in review and earbuds as we check out many of them and of course phone cases for existing phones we use.

Overall this is an affordable product with many functions and can keep your desk tidy too and looks well with the RGB lights on, see more in the video below.

Features:

1、【RGB Lighting】New bee RGB headphone features 7 colors of lighting modes, the cool visual effect can create any atmosphere. Press and hold for 3 seconds to turn off/on the lights.

Tech Review – Twelve South Curve SE desktop stand for laptops

If you are working from home or in off and indeed travelling having the right equipment is key and sitting at the right angle or having your laptop at the right angle is an ideal move and the Curve SE from Twelve South is one item you should check out, it comes in three parts and takes ten seconds to assemble, you can disassemble in the same time and it is held in with a clip each side.

There is rubber footing on the underside and on the laptop tray to stop anything from moving and once in position it is very hard to move it, the idea of the product here is its simplicity and angle you have your laptop at which is important and ideal for a better posture rather than being slouched over. The product also gives your laptop breathing space as opposed to being flat on a table or desk and in turn does more good for your product being used.

The Curve SE raises your laptop 6 inches (15cm) off the surface to keep your screen at eye level and help to reduce neck and shoulder strain as mentioned above and from me using a sit/stand desk at home which is adjustable I can already feel the benefits of using this. 

With high quality materials being used again here which Twelve South are known for this is something you should look at for yourself or even a gift this Christmas. The Twelve South Curve SE desktop stand for laptops is for anyone really.

 

  • AN ECONOMICAL CURVE SOLUTION: Curve SE comes in 3 easy to assemble aluminum sections vs one solid piece of aluminum, and a new Silver color. This entry level model still has the same dimensions and basic benefits of our original Curve, and is a perfect way to test out the Curve Family! Once assembled, we do not recommend disassembly as it is meant to be a permanent connection.
  • NEW HEIGHTS- Curve SE raises your laptop 6 inches (15cm) off the surface to keep your screen at eye level and help to reduce neck and shoulder strain.
  • Multiple Uses – Pair with a full-size keyboard & mouse for a comfortable desktop setup or use with a monitor for dual screen functionality
  • Air Flow – Curve SE keeps 70% of the base exposed for optimal cooling
  • Protection – Full coverage anti-slip silicone pads and bent arms keep laptop in place and prevent scratches

Tech Review – ESR HaloLock Geo Wallet Stand

The ESR HaloLock Geo Wallet Stand is an ideal accessory for those who have limited cards to carry around and dont mind slapping an accessory onto the back of their iPhone, this however also serves as a kickstand of sorts enabling you to place your device in both horizontal and vertical modes, not only that you have a security loop on the rear of the clip on device to give your additional security when using the phone on the go as it is mostly opportunists grab peoples phones when they are talking on it on main thoroughfares and so on. Yes I have seen it first hand many times and organised criminals are said to be lurking around our country.

The  set up here is also simple and takes literally 30 seconds to connect the device which is great, the magnet is even stronger than apples own, this also has a proprietary charger which is slightly annoying when we are all moving to USB-C but we will forgive them on this one but be sure to keep the cable stored safely. The pogo styled pins do not seem as strong though as could be and nothing near the strength of the product itself when on the back of your iPhone.

This will use your Find My app to locate giving you details of distance terrain and more you can also share with chosen friends if lost which is similar to other trackers out there letting the community give you dig out if lost, there is also a ringtone on it if you have lost in your house or office for example and loud enough to hear it indoors.

Features

  • Full Apple Find My: the first MagSafe wallet on the market with full Apple-certified Find My functionality, letting you instantly see its real-time location, Play a Sound, and receive Left Behind notifications
  • 2x Stronger Magnets: enjoy a powerful 1,500-g magnetic lock on your phone, more than double the strength of the official MagSafe Wallet, so your most important items always stay secure
  • All in One Pocket: lightweight design attaches seamlessly to the back of your phone, holds 1–3 cards equally secure thanks to the dynamic tension spring, and enables instant access to your cards via the small cutout in the bottom
  • Multi-view Stand: the strong, durable hinge opens out smoothly to create a powerfully stable stand at any angle between 15° and 170°, portrait or landscape, for the perfect way to FaceTime, watch videos, or browse hands free
  • Secure Grip: specially designed finger loop on the back gives you a comfortably better grip on the go and quickly folds flat when you’re ready to pocket your phone
