Macally Adjustable Cupholder Mount – Review

Adapter, Audio, Dock, iPad mini, iPhone, iPod, Music, Review, Stand 0

Stuff has a way of piling up. The passenger seat in my small car has become an extension of my disheveled desk. While driving I sometimes blindly grope through the cash register receipts, magazines, grocery lists and unopened mail in search of my iPhone. I know its there but I really dont want to take my eyes off the road to excavate the mess that covers it. Thats why I now regard Macallys Adjustable Cupholder Mount for Smart Phones as a life raft.

Otterbox uniVERSE Case System with olloclip lens – Review

Adapter, Camera, Cases, iPhone, Review 0

The challenge has been to protect my iPhone while being able to add lenses and other accessories. In the past, most accessories could only be attached to a naked iPhone. I was always concerned as I was climbing over rocks to get that great shot with an unprotected iPhone. It was also a pain to take off and put on those protective cases. Since sunsets (and an occasional sunrise time lapse) in HDR are images I like to capture, a case with a tripod mount is important to me.

Micflip Fully Reversible Micro USB Cable – Review

Adapter, Review 0

I no longer carry an iPhone. After working with one of the creators of Android, I was convinced to try an Xperia Z3, an amazing phone by Sony. Yes, it is Android, but it has so many advanced features (like a 21 Megapixel camera), I couldn’t say no. But there are still things about the iPhone I miss, and one thing especially is the power cable with Lightning connector. There is something to be said for a connector that can be easily and quickly plugged into the phone without having to look and rotate the connector to the proper orientation. This is especially nice in low light or while driving.

LifeActiv Belt Clip with Quickmount – Review

Adapter, Back Pack, Clothing, iPhone, iPod, Review 0

The LifeActiv quickmount and belt clip enables users to carry a smartphone attached to their belt or a backpack. The catch is that the gadget is a two-piece solution. The mount is an adhesive-backed square that must be attached to your phone’s case. It does not adhere to rubber and certain other materials. I had to remove the outer bumper on my OtterBox case and attach the mount to the plastic frame underneath.
