Micflip Fully Reversible Micro USB Cable – Review

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.

OWC Thunderbolt 2 Dock – Review

Audio, Camcorder, Camera, Headphones, Network, OWC, Review 0

Thunderbolt is probably the most interesting technology that came to our Macintoshes in recent years. Since I bought a 15″ MacBook Pro with retina display, I have been following the market for Thunderbolt docks. In the first years, they were slow to come to market. Then, with Thunderbolt 2 released, they removed some ports. OWC has a new accessory that has Thunderbolt 2 connectivity with a FireWire port: the OWC Thunderbolt 2 Dock.
