Review by Rob P. The perimeter is secure. The gate is locked and bolted. All residents are on high alert. At some point, I’m expecting a courier to collect my borrowed Stellé Audio Pillar and return it to the manufacturer. I’m not going to make it easy for them. They…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. So many enthusiast keyboards deliberately aim for an aesthetic that tells people “I’m here for the hardcore gamer, so if you’re not one, go away.” Industrial metallic greys and a form factor designed to take as much space as possible combine to create something that by…
Read MoreReview by Rob P. You must have heard the one about the monkeys. If you put a monkey in a room with a keyboard all you’ll get is gibberish. But if you give an infinite number of keyboards to an infinite number of monkeys you’ll end up with the Complete…

This device only…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Ok, so as a disclaimer first: I’ve never actually reviewed a mouse before. It’s one of those things that you use, but you don’t really think about, as far as I’m concerned. I’ve never bothered with those hardcore gamer mice (frankly, it wouldn’t help me), but…
Read MoreReview by Rob P. This could be a candidate for the shortest review ever. Here are the essentials: the Wahoo Fitness Blue HR is a heart rate monitor. It’s accurate and reliable, and the software is excellent. It’s reasonably priced. There’s no reason not to buy it. That’s all that…
