Outstanding Stands for your Smartphone!!!

Electronics

Add a comment By Andi

Whether you're in the car, behind a desk or just having a lazy day in bed – having a place to keep your phone is ideal. For safety, protection and a whole heap of convenience, smartphone stands are an awesome way to free up your hands and still have access to your phone when you need it.

Choosing the right stand for your needs is a tricky task, so we figured we'd lend a hand.

1) Bluelounge Milo Smartphone Stand

This one is great for the office or bedside table. You've got the freedom to mount your phone any orientation you please, and the design is stylishly minimal.

You've got plenty of clearance for your charging cable, and your speakers won't be muffled if you want to play something or take a call while your phone is mounted.

Using micro-suction to grab your phone, you don't have to worry about clips, brackets or any other hassles – just hold it for a couple of seconds and it's fixed!

Otterbox Winning Story Announced!!!

Wow… You guys sure have some great stories.
When we started this competition we had no idea what kind of floodgates we were opening by asking for your stories, but man did you guys hit us with a torrent of tragedy!

With over 700 entries between Facebook and our Competition Blog, it certainly took us some time to read through them all, some were devastating, some were hilarious, and way too many involved a toilet.

Seriously people.

Stop dropping your phone in the toilet. That's not what they're for.

Of course we can only have one winner, and as tough as it was, we finally decided on this one:

Have you ever dropped your phone? Had that moment of slow motion, where you watch it slip out of your hand and tumble towards its potential death?

Maybe it landed on carpet, maybe you had a protective case… but maybe not.

Otterbox knows how precious your phone is to you and what it's like to have one dented, cracked, or completely obliterated. That's why they built their cases to be the best protective cases on the market. It's also why they're giving you the chance to WIN your own dirt defying, scratch scorning, tumble thwarting, water withstanding, erosion expunging Otterbox case…

Smartphone Charging with the Ultra Slim External Battery

Electronics

Add a comment By Andi

There's some amazing charging solutions out there for smartphones these days. From the awesome Juice Pack range from Mophie to the upcoming Resurgence range from Otterbox.

But if you love your current case too much, or you need a case with a bit more protection, then you'll probably be looking for other charging methods. If this is the case, then we recommend the Ultra Slim External Batter Charger. With a USB output, you can charge any device using your own cables.

It's called Ultra Slim for a reason, being slightly larger than a credit card – this charging solution will fit in most wallets. Now you can have the same portable charging as everyone else AND keep the case you want.

EXTERMINATE! with your Smartphone

Mighty Ape is being invaded by Daleks! We need brave Time Lords and their companions to help rid our headquarters of these fiendish foes!

Controlled by iOS or Android smartphones via Bluetooth, this remote control Dalek gives you all the joy of owning a Dalek without the fear of it breaking loose and wiping out the human race. This Dalek comes complete with turning head, motorized base and bump sensor, as well as working lights on the head, eye and gun.

So if you think a pet Dalek sounds fun, or have someone you wish to EXTERMINATE, be sure to preorder one before they invade in September.

And for all the information you'll need to keep these mutants from getting the upper hand, be sure to swing by our Doctor Who Jungle.

Never worry about a flat battery again with Mophie!

Electronics

Add a comment By Dan

As our screens get bigger and brighter and the games get even more addictive, it's rather tough to get through a full day without the need to recharge your phone via a wall socket. Many of us lead busy lives and just cant be stuck in any one place for an hour while waiting for the battery to change from red to green.

The folks at Mophie understand the importance of power on the go, whilst remaining uncompromising on the design and form factor of your device. Mophie iPhone cases feature simple toggle switch, which allows for standby and charging mode so you only have to use the juice pack plus battery when you need it!

With an option for all users, whether you want an external battery that you can simply plug into your device when needed, or a protective case and battery hybrid Mophie have all bases covered.

Swing by and order yours today to never fear the dreaded red battery again!

Otterbox, the ultimate in device protection available now!

Earlier this week I decided to see what all the fuss was about and purchased an Otterbox for my Galaxy S4. I have had bad luck with phones in the past due to my clumsiness, so needed something to give me some peace of mind.I have heard that when it comes to protecting your phone, Otterbox is the name that many know, trust and love

With the strong recommendation from friends, I took the plunge and made my lovely sleek smart phone a bit bulkier. At first the size put me off, but with repeated use, I acclimated to the new feel within hours.

Normally I wouldn't bother recommending a smart phone case but after yesterdays thunder, hail and heavy rain, I discovered very quickly that without my Otterbox I would be using an old Alcatel again. Upon exiting my car and attempting rather admirably to dodge as many rain drops as possible in the mad 200 metre dash to the front door, I experienced that soul destroying moment of sheer panic when my phone made a daring exit out of my pocket and proceed to somersault in extreme slow-mo towards the unforgiving asphalt on the road!

Amazing Rapoo H6060 Bluetooth Headset, incredible battery life

Electronics

Add a comment By Ben

The Rapoo H6060 Bluetooth Stereo Headset with mic has incredible battery life, great sound and incredible battery life… we know we said that twice but the battery life really is amazing :)

Auto switch between phone call and music means that your headset will automatically switch to calling mode when calls are coming even if you are listening to music. With its rechargeable lithium battery you'll be enjoying either for longer but if things get low you can recharge by using the universal mini-USB cable — even while you’re still playing. Three hour charging, 16 hour enjoyment.

Available in black or white order yours today!
