Overall, this is the first real USB WiFi-6 network adaptor, and it’s very good, but I can bet you it won’t be the last. I fully expect to see D-Link release a new model within the next year or so, probably with a smaller form or something extra added in.

Overall, there isn’t really a lot to be said for RAM – it either does what it should, or not. The 16GB kit that I received certainly did everything it promised and went the extra mile. Even for non-gamers, it is a worthwhile upgrade.

Overall, for the price, this is actually a pretty worthwhile option to consider for most usage scenarios. Only the direst of gamers or professionals who push such high volumes of data around that even a slight increase in performance becomes significant will need to look beyond this range.

Overall, this is a welcome evolution of the technology, and it looks to be somewhat future-ready too, as devices that support the 2.5Gbps data rate are still slowly reaching the average-consumer marketspace.
Hands-on Review – D-Link DMS-106XT Unmanaged Switch Read More »
Overall, for the price, this punches way above its weight class. With all the features of far more expensive peers, and supporting the newest WPA3 security protocols, this is peace of mind in a discrete black jellybean.

Overall, while this isn’t going to have the die-hard geeks drooling, it is a more-than-capable device that punches a bit above its price-point. You won’t instantly regret buying it, and with it being quite modern, it is bound to be high on the list for the upcoming roll-out of Android 12.

Hands-on Review: D-Link Full HD Wi-Fi Camera – DCS-8300LHV2 Read More »
Overall, this is a great ‘starter kit’ if you don’t currently have a decent home security system, but it’s also an affordable way to expand your system if you already have something in place that links to Alexa, Google or IFTTT.

Overall, this phone is pretty good. It needs some adjustments to really make it “wow” but it’s not an overpriced slouch by any means. The photographic modes need some work, however they perform better than my ‘minimum standards’ so that’s a bonus. This is a smartphone you likely won’t regret buying as it has a very good balance of usability and affordability.

Overall, it’s a top-notch entry-level phone, no pun intended. It will do all you ask of it, within reason, and give you good service. It is one of the rare handsets these days that still carry the 3.5mm headphone jack, which I really love…
Hands-on Review: OPPO AX5s Smartphone Read More »
Overall, this is a good entry-level phone for someone in their 30’s an up. Younger people will want, nay, demand something with more grunt because “…I want to play the newest games, Dad… this sucks.!” This is a phone, first and foremost.
Hands-on Review: Huawei Y6 Pro 2019 Read More »
Overall, a stunning advancement in family-oriented home security and quite overdue. While it is not the first device to address this market, it is certainly the best I have encountered myself and leaves the other devices I have tried eating its dust. At $600+/- it’s not cheap, but if you have kids it’s an investment you would be wise to give serious consideration to.

Overall, is this a good printer for someone wanting something simple, durable and long-lasting? On most counts, I would say a definite yes. You really are not going to find the initial setup to be pleasant, fun or fast, but at least you only need to do it once.
