One of the more interesting and controversial items to emerge from Apple’s special media event earlier this month was the introduction of a new pair of wireless headphones called AirPods. Sporting a futuristic design and impressive battery life, Apple’s AirPods have been praised as much as they have been ridiculed.
On the positive side, Apple’s AirPods are jam-packed with advanced technologies. On the other hand, many argue that the design of Apple’s AirPods is not user-friendly nor aesthetically pleasing.
The iPhone 7 is already a massive hit with consumers — even if it’s boring, and even if it lacks a headphone jack. However, some buyers aren’t happy about Apple’s decision to kill the headphone jack. There are fixes for it, including the adapter that Apple put in every iPhone 7 box. But there is still one audio jack issue that some iPhone 7 owners may complain about: There’s no easy way to charge the phone and use wired headphones at the same time.
If aesthetics don’t matter to you, then there is one solution to fix your iPhone 7 headphone hack problem, a new case that brings back the 3.5mm port back from the dead.
Everyone has a cell phone these days, which means it’s reasonably easy to call of help in the event that you have car troubles that leave you stranded somewhere. Of course, it’s still a huge hassle to have to sit there and wait while AAA, a tow truck or a friend comes to help you. In many situations, you would have been able to save yourself and your friends a big headache by making one smart and simple purchase. Check out the Digital Treasures ChargeIt! Jump Portable Power Pack and Jump Starter, which is on sale on Amazon from right now through October 11. More →

Apple’s new iPhone 7 Plus has 2x optical zoom and a very cool bokeh effect, neither of which are very common on smartphones these days. Of course, you’re still not going to get the same kind of camera experience on the iPhone 7 Plus that you would get with a larger camera that has room for different types of optics. That’s why companies have created all sorts of smartphone lens add-ons, which dramatically enhance the camera experience on any iPhone or Android phone.
Right now, Amazon has a big sale going on 10 different smartphone lens kits that work with any iPhone and just about any Android phone out there. These prices are good from now through October 9th, or while supplies last. More →

Welcome to throwback Thursday on a Wednesday.
There once was a time where just about every Wi-Fi router in homes across the country were little blue boxes that said Linksys. Times have certainly changed and there are plenty of companies out there that make top-notch routers, but Linksys continues to be one of the best names in the business. After all these years and all the routers the company has released, the Linksys AC1900 Dual Band Open Source WiFi Wireless Router is probably its best all-around router ever. It’s fast, it offers great range, and with Amazon’s current sale it’s available at a sold price point. More →

A company called Waverly Labs is working on a wearable translation device that has captured people’s imaginations, generated plenty of buzz, andraised over $3 million on Indiegogo.
Its promise? That two people wearing earpieces made by the company could speak in different languages, and with the earpieces working in conjunction with a smartphone app, each person could hear a translation in their preferred language in their ear. For example, one person could speak Spanish, and the other would hear it as English in his ear, and vice versa.

There are so few dedicated gadgets these days that haven’t been replaced by smartphones, but universal remotes represent one category that has managed to survive so far. Yes, there are smartphone apps that control everything you can imagine, and even a few smartphones out there with built-in infrared sensors. But there’s still something to be said for having one single dedicated device with physical buttons and months-long battery life to control all your gear.
Right now, for one day only, Amazon dropped the price of the Logitech Harmony Ultimate All in One Remote with Customizable Touch Screen and Closed Cabinet RF Control, but only while supplies last. This is definitely a deal you should check out. More →

As much as some people might hate to admit it, slow home internet service isn’t always your ISP’s fault. In fact, your internet service provider probably supplies you with much faster download and upload speeds than you’re actually taking advantage of. What’s the problem? Some people insist on using cheap Wi-Fi routers — or, even worse, they use the built-in Wi-Fi on their cable company’s router — that can’t keep up with fast internet speeds.
Lucky for you if you fall into this category, Amazon has a big sale going on right now on two devices that will combine to give you the ultimate home wireless network. Check out the NETGEAR Nighthawk X4 Ultimate Gaming Router and NETGEAR Nighthawk X4 AC2200 WiFi Range Extender, which are both being discounted from now through the end of the day on October 7. Oh, and we’ve got a little bonus for you if you REALLY want to speed things up. More →
