    Review: A few days in. Photographer in love with the 13" TouchBar!

    Relatively long post this one but I feel it's warranted to get my thoughts across accurately. UPDATE: I've added some thoughts on post #32 after spending two weeks with the machine working in Lightroom, on a photographic safari. The backstory: My equipment is used to earn my sole income as a...

    Any MacBook 2016 Questions? (Sorry my original post got deleted)

    Hey Guys, I'm putting together a review video for the 2016 MacBook Pro and was wondering if any of you had any questions of real life experiences with the laptop (not just technical, geekbench questions). I want to take questions that I've received and answer them with my own personal...

    Review of your purchase

    We have a last purchase thread Post Your Last Purchase XXVIII but we don't have a review thread (well not that I could find). As you may or may not know when you buy products many sites like Amazon will ask you to post a review. However they are also full of fake reviews. So the idea is we...

    My MacBook Pro 2016 15" Review

    MacBook Pro 15" late 2016 review. The Professional Portable. (we review the high end 2.7Ghz with 512GB Ram and AMD Radeon 455 gfx card) Apple just launched all new MacBook Pro's. Two different 13" models and one 15". One of the 13" lacks the touchbar and have slower processors. The other comes...

    A week with the 15" Touch Bar MacBook Pro - The Good/Bad.

    Thought i'd post my thoughts after a week with the system. Overall I really like it, but it's not without it's niggles - so my observations so far. (Spec 15" Touch Bar, 2.9ghz i7, 16gb ram, 1TB SSD, Radeon 460) The Good. Silence. It's so nice to have a silent MacBook Pro. My 2015 MacBook Pro...

    My 13" MacBook Pro Unboxing & Review

    Here is the video I did for unboxing and an overview of the new 13" MBP. Just FYI, if you're looking for Geekbench, performance, etc numbers then this is not the video for you. What do you guys think? Constructive criticism is much appreciated, especially considering this is my first true...

    REVIEW: iPhone 7 Plus

    I've had my 7 Plus for one week and so now I'll share my experience. I have been an iPhone owner since the original iPhone, and I typically upgrade every other model. My last two iPhones, for example, were the 4s and the 5s... so I jumped from a 5s to a 7 Plus, which was a very big leap indeed...

    Initial Review of MBP 13" w/ TB

    So far, I am absolutely loving it. I'm coming from a mid-2012 13" MBA w/ 8GB memory, 256gb storage, i7 2.0GHz processor to a 16GB, 256gb storage, i7 3.3GHz so almost everything is better in every aspect. The build quality is superb, I'm really liking the keyboard (there is some adjustment but...

    One year on, a review of the base 2015 MacBook

    After a year of ownership, I've sold my base 1.1GHz, 256GB 2015 12" MacBook. I can now provide a review of my experience. I'd like this review to be different from others - free of fluff hyperbole, and actually based on long term use rather than a week's review as you find on many tech sites. I...

    My honest review of Bose QC 35.

    Thanks to Apple, the age of wireless audio is here and Bose Quiet Comfort 35 is my first serious wireless headphone purchase (the one I intend to keep). The reason I purchased Bose because I live in downtown and city noise is too much for my morning walk. I could hardly heard anything with...

    iPhone 7 — it's perfect.

    I've had my matte black iPhone 7 128GB since day one. I've come from the 5S to this. Having used it now for some time, I just wanted to say that I can't fault it in any way. It's amazing. The screen is beautiful, the smooth feeling of the body is so so nice and matte black especially has a...

    iOS 10 Review!!

    Hey guys!! Post your iOS 10 review below. I've updated my iPhone 6 Plus to iOS 10 and I'm loving everything about it. I really like the new notifications centre, iMessage features, lock and key click sounds and so much more. I really wanted a dark mode but we never got it. :( That would of been...

    Very impressed with iOS 10

    Well, I'm on an older iPhone 5S. Just updated today. First hands-on experience with the new OS. Apps open quicker. Safari seems snappier (for real). Big ol' buttons on the Music app for easy scrubbing and volume control. Thank goodness. Can't make heads nor tails of the messaging app, though...

    iPhone 7/6S Plus Case Backward-Compatibility Test - New iPhone 7 Plus Case on my iPhone 6S Plus

    With the new iPhones being similar to their predecessors, I wondered if cases for both newer and older models would fit each-other, or whether the slight differences in speaker or cameras would cause a problem. I bet I'm not the only one who wondered this, so I decided to share my little...

    Macbook Retina 12 (m1) is underrated...my review compared to MBPr & MB Air

    So I have a 2012 Macbook Pro Retina (15 inch) which has an awesome quad core i7, 8gb RAM, Intel HD4000 graphics and also a Nvidia 650M. It's one hell of a machine that allows me to be productive (I do photography and video editing as a side business). It handles tasks with ease, it is a beast...

    Review of universal Waterproof Case - keep your phone dry

    I am always horrified when it comes to water and phones; the two should never mingle. At the beach one day, I noticed the clear aqua blue water for miles and wanted to capture this breath-taking view from in the water under but I know I would need an expensive underwater camera to do so. I order...

    Resolved Looking for honest opinion/review

    So I am looking for an honest opinion/review of the Watch. I know the capabilities, I have read the reviews (by all the major tech websites), and watched all the reviews on YouTube. But none of these really answer the questions (and maybe problems) I have about the Watch. Let me start off with...

    Retina MacBook Review

    After a month of using Apple’s Retina MacBook, I’m finally able to offer a well thought out review. Full disclosure: I’ve been an Apple user and fan most of my life. From using Apple IIs in elementary school and using Power Mac G4s to edit video in high school, to editing professional audio...
