Toys,
Still all about the new Cinderella movie that dropped not too long ago? Well, you might not be able to score your own Fairy Godmother, but at least you can light up your life a little with this Cinderella Carriage LED Lamp. The lamp is pretty much the same as the Baymax LED lamp we […]
That didn’t take long. Only a day after Apple debuted the new MacBook, with its single multi-purpose USB-C port, LaCie has announced that their first USB-C drive will be available sometime in the next few months. The drive is exactly the same as the USB 3.0 Porsche Design Mobile Drive, the aluminum-clad HDD designed for […]
About a year ago, we took a look at the Leef Surge, which is pretty much the smallest USB flash drive ever. I mean, I guess there might be some smaller, maybe, but we’d be splitting hairs at that point. Anyway, the Surge is still around and smaller than a wireless mouse dongle, but it’s […]
Sometimes, CES is at its best when companies just go out there and show off for the sake of showing off. Take the Seagate Seven—did Seagate need to make a 7 mm thick HDD? Probably not, but we’re glad they did anyway. The Seagate Seven is a 500 GB external hard drive that, at 7 […]
We love it when companies try to spice up a habitually boring device. LaCie, the upscale division of Seagate, does just that with external hard drives, and what they’re showing off at CES 2015 might be the fairest of them all. The LaCie Mirror Portable Hard Drive is a hard drive surrounded by mirrored glass, […]
Toys,
I kinda figured this was just a plastic imitation of a cork, because I would never put it past anyone to create a cheap knock-off and sell it for a Jackson. Fortunately, we’ve stumbled onto someone committed here—this Cork USB Flash Drive is an honest-to-goodness cork with an 8 GB USB flash drive tucked away […]
LaCie has introduced the newest version of their Rugged external hard drive. It’s rugged and fast, and if you’re looking for a new external, it’s probably a good bet. The LaCie Rugged lives up to its name thanks to dust, water and shock resistance. Specifically, you’ll be covered for drops up to 2 meters (6.6 […]
TV,
There’s a new home media streaming device coming from WD, called the WD TV Personal Edition. It’s kind of an update to their WD TV Live Hub from a couple years ago, but with some notable changes.
It’s amazing, as time marches on, we always seem to yearn for things from the past. Let’s take the mixtape for instance, the once treasured way of sharing your own personal collection of songs has now become a shareable playlist on a multitude of streaming music services. But that doesn’t mean what was old, can’t […]
Ever realize how hotel Wi-Fi has not improved over the last five years? If anything it’s only gotten worse with all the extra devices trying to connect. Here at CES, Buffalo has released the solution: the AirStation AC 433 Wireless Travel Router. This unique pocket-sized device turns a hotel ethernet cable into a wireless router […]
Normally, I would decry a luxury tech device with a French accent in the name as utterly insufferable, but LaCie and silver design house Christofle are actually from France, so I guess the Sphère gets a pass. Sphère is a ritzy-for-the-sake-of-it silver-plated hard drive in the form of a sphere that looks like it might […]
It’s 2013, and nothing is allowed to be boring. Granted, kitschy USB hubs (yeah, the hubs, let alone the drives) are far from a new development, but we’ve maybe never seen a whole USB hub/drive cutesy set-up until now.
We guess that creating unique accessories for smartphones is really getting more difficult to come up with, because why else would you make a finger stand? That said, using appendages as models for accessories is really not new. Remember the ‘thumb’ drive? Yeah we know…haha. In any case, the Finger stand does what you would […]
Time has come for San Diego Comic Con to roll around once again, and that means Mimoco will be in tow with all new flash drives. This year, they’re revealing six Comic Con exclusives, some of which will only see limited production runs. To start off, though, they have four new drives that will enter […]
Toys,
The USB Lipstick Flash Drive II isn’t great for what it is, it’s great for what it could be.
It’s nice to see that some companies are still putting effort into making creative USB drives. Case in point, the Iron Man Right Hand USB drive. In the world of data storage, it looks like you have a new right-hand man. InfoThink has created a Marvel-licensed USB drive based on the blasting right hand of […]
We all want the performance of an SSD, but when it comes to large amounts of storage, SSDs get real pricey, real fast. That is why Buffalo’s DriveStation DDR is so unique. Buffalo claims that it’s the world’s Fastest USB Hard Drive, with SSD‐like transfer Performance. Buffalo has managed to accomplish this by using a […]
I have always been a fan of the Swiss Army Knife. Its practicality, that it is always there for you when you run into trouble. It is the goto for box cutting or getting yourself out of a pair of awful pantyhose. However, till now there hasn’t been such a tool that was solely dedicated […]
Last year we reviewed Seagate’s Satellite Wireless Hard Drive and were impressed; this year we’re reviewing Seagate’s Wireless Plus, the 1TB big brother, and we’re blown away. The Wireless Plus gives you an incredible amount of storage in a handheld device that can wirelessly stream and transfer content to your phone, tablet, and other devices. […]
TV,
Samsung will be releasing a set-top box (of sorts) this year, which will also serve as local cloud storage for the whole family. It’s called the HomeSync, and it will be out sometime in April.
Toys,
Flash drives are essential these days… so you might as well store your files in style! To that effect, flash drives really don’t get cooler than Mimobots, especially when they’re bringing all of our favorite characters to life. We were lucky enough to get our hands on Mimobots from the new Ugly Doll and Hello […]
