Ringke have sent over some of their cases to check out for the iPhone 11 and this company is another company I recommend checking out if you are in the market for a new case for your shiny new smartphone.
Ringke cases are affordable and come in many variants for you to pick from which is nice and they have a vast array of cases and more for most smartphones out there today. Both these cases are ideal for your smartphone with two different styles at hand.

The Onyx has a really nice metal brushed finish and the Fusion offers more with impact protection but both cases are made with TPU and have the drop test standard today we see in most phone cases from reputable case makers. Check out the video and image below for more and click the link in description to see what Ringke have on offer for your smartphone.. There is lots.
Over the last while I have been testing out the new Nextbase line of dashcams and the latest one to drop in the the 322 which is more or less mid range when it comes to pricing,having said that it comes with many features included in the 522 GW which costs less and then we have the entry level 122 which is not touch based like the 322 and 522 but still gives results at the end of the day and this is again something for all pockets at the end of the day which some still say is expensive.
At the end of the day if you want good footage and a dashcam that will not fail or corrupt your SD card they are the best in the business given the app needs some work it is the only one I can safely recommend as a whole for results and features. The problem today is that we now see more cheaper alternative dashcams in local garages and euro saver shops and so on costing between €20-€50 offering all kinds of features yet do not work and I actually have one of those here now which I unboxed recently and is a pile of junk and have been in touch with them about it and was just told to format the SD card and heard nothing since telling them it does not work, This is an Amazon seller yet similar can be found in shops advertising the bells and whistles yet simply fail to work.
My email and images are available on request, I do have to give them the option to replace this or as I said in my email it could be a faulty unit which is fair as these things happen in tech I have emailed these more than once and no joy since last contact so that says enough for me being honest, however I like to give people a chance,these have had the chance and ignored it and it happens more often than you think,even with high end products but being in the position I am I will engage first with the company but DOA products is a thing in tech and cant be really avoided.
Moving back the the 322 it has been a popular piece of discussion on local forums and the 522 which I am a member of and I offer advice and the 322 came up in discussion recently alongside the 522 so I was in a position to offer advice on such and to be fair it comes down to budget which by all means is a valid choice for anyone and the 322 sits well here offering many features often omitted from rival brands.
Need a job in IT or Tech? Click the image below.
The 322 is well placed offering great features and works well after my time testing it check out the video below for more and any questions hit me up in the usual spots.
Key features: 1080p HD resolution at 60 fps, 2.5” HD IPS touch screen, 140° viewing angle, 10Hz GPS Module, AutoSync, Bluetooth 4.2, Wi-Fi via MyNextbase Connect and PC/Mac software – MyNextbase Player
The 322GW is also compatible with the Nextbase Rear-View Camera Modules to add a second camera. Personalise your Dash Cam and choose one of 3 different rear camera views from Rear, Cabin or Rear Window view.

The Fusion cases are simplistic in design and not bulky yet add maximum protection a case should offer for your smartphone. With a tapered lip around the front of the device from top and and bottom inward the phone can be placed face down and on the rear the raised camera hump is well sorted here and this is below surface level which protects the entire hump so it is also great for those who like to keep their device face up.

Competition in the telecoms world has heated up things a bit with a new player in town but there is a catch or two, It is belong to eir who have not had it easy over the last while and there is no shops and phones. It is all web based and similar to what is on offer elsewhere by the eir owner. eir also will have no hand on this when it comes to customer service and as we know customer service goes along way and it will in time tell just how good this is going to be assuming the uptake will be a big one.
The pricing on offer for the first 100,000 customers stands at 9.99 a month which is undercutting everyone else out there as it stands now but this move might just see others drop their price and there is nothing better than competition in my book but this whole thing just reminds me or the meteor/eir thing and ID mobile and ID mobile did not last too long. This is a rolling plan something I am on with another network paying €25 a month for today
To join you just bring your number or sign up and you will pay €10 up front which is not bad and the data allowance is the one to watch as we now consume more data than ever before and you get a whopping 80GB, So to cap off what is on offer it is all calls,sms your 80GB data and 10GB data of roaming but all this falls under the FUP policy and if you are outside the EU and roam you will be hit hard in the pocket paying big bucks there.
Usage outside of your inclusive allowances will be charged as follows:
Voicemail – Free
Additional Minutes – 30c/Min
SMS – 15c per SMS
See the roaming charges below. You can see more in the PRICING guide
Fair usage – 45,000 minutes and 10,000 SMS which being honest is fine most of us today use social media or Whats App for example to communicate, I think myself I get bout 5 text a week and send the same so no fear of going outside the limits or calls for that matter.
Is this a good deal? On paper yes once you dont roam outside the EU but you can see more at https://shop.gomo.ie/ I will be back with a review on the service in a few weeks and just lets see how customer service works out.
True Wireless earbuds are the thing today and we have reviewed countless pairs to date and more on the way,Today though we take a first look at the HIFIMAN TWS-600 which come in a nice presentation and look really cool to boot with a nice charging case to top it off.
These earbuds are full of features as what you would expect so I am looking forward to seeing how they deliver with the functionality and most importantly sound performance so stay tuned for a review soon.
Check out the unboxing below and you can also check the links below to purchase if you cant wait for our review.. They are now currently on sale with a 70 euro discount.
Recently I checked out the instax mini li play and it was my first real camera but what’s different here that is an instant camera and the same as the Polaroid One Step 2 camera which has a different shape and size and gives you a similar result. What has been great with the Instax was actually holding a photograph again like most of us did many years ago only with the Polaroid this gives you bigger images on the fly.
We will be testing this out over the coming weeks and if you have any questions feel free to ask as always and check out the unboxing below..
You can pick this up at a really great price from Menkind.
This camera does exactly what you’d expect from a Polaroid. It takes perfectly imperfect, untouched, real photos that you can actually hold. (Did we mention they’re real?). But, unlike the Polaroids from the ‘70s, this camera has updates that make it perfect for today’s digital age!
For starters, this camera has a built-in 1100mAh battery that recharges via USB (cable included), so there’s no need to rely on the film having a battery attached. This also keeps the film cheaper and means that you can use the camera for up to 60 days on one charge!
In addition to the battery, this camera has updated lenses of polycarbonate and acrylic which give you a focal length of between 2 feet and, well, infinity, making the OneStep perfect for everything from selfies to landscapes! Plus, with a built-in strobe flash, you can keep shooting well after the sun goes down!
