Ekleva DC36 Dashcam Review – Extreme Night Vision!

Marvin Gabriel

I am always fascinated with everything that has a camera and lens on it, may it be a DSLR, point and shoot camera, mirrorless camera, smartphones, and even dashcams that are becoming more and more better in terms of image quality they produce. A while ago, I reviewed the Transcend DrivePro 550 Dashcam and it is a very good dashcam. However, it also comes with a very hefty price tag of around Php. 9000 which is a very steep price to pay. So when Ekleva reached out to me, I immediately…

EasySMX ESM-9101 Wireless Game Controller Review

Marvin Gabriel

With my continued passion for looking out for budget gaming peripherals, I’ve come across some relatively unpopular brands that apparently are capable of producing decent quality products at a very competitive price.

When EasySMX reached out to me and ask me if I can review one of their products, I immediately checked out their product lineup and did a quick background check about them as well, and even though this is the…

Tronsmart Element Groove Bluetooth Speaker Review

Marvin Gabriel

At this point, I’ve already reviewed a couple of Tronsmart Bluetooth speaker in the form of the Tronsmart Element T2 and the compact Tronsmart Element Splash, they both sounded great with very impressive build quality and I am wondering if it would be the same with what we’re going to look at today. Today, we have the Tronsmart Element Groove that offers a very compact form factor and boasts a “Passive Radiator” speaker design that in theory, will provide more bass and enhance low frequencies even in such a small…

My Converge FiberX Experience – Life Changing!

Marvin Gabriel

Since I was a kid we’ve been a loyal subscriber of Globe Telecom from just having a landline phone up until we have a broadband internet. We’ve since upgraded our plan several times up to the plan 1599 bundle with 10Mbps download and 1Mpbs upload speed. This speed was fine for us for several years browsing the internet, streaming videos and whatnot. But since I started my YouTube channel, It became evidently slow causing a bottleneck when it comes to my overall content creation workflow. Uploading a mere 1-2GB video…

Tecware Haste XL RGB Mousepad Review – Cheapest RGB Mousepad!

Marvin Gabriel

We can’t deny that RGB is the current trend right now when it comes to PC components, accessories, and peripherals and it looks like it’s gonna stay for a while. A lot of manufacturers are focusing on implementing RGB lighting to almost every product possible, some even are committed to making a complete ecosystem for their products taking advantage of this trend. While RGB lighting doesn’t really increase the performance of our system, some of us including myself just can’t help but include at least one or two RGB components on…

Securecam X1 Wi-Fi Review + Step by Step Guide

Marvin Gabriel

  It has been a while since I’ve reviewed a security camera, the last time was the Sricam SP017, it is decent but there’s one important factor that I don’t like about it, it cannot be accessed outside of our home network without fiddling with the router settings.   What we have here today will solve that one particular downside of a home security camera, the Securecam X1 Wifi from signal-vault.com which can be accessed anywhere with an internet connection.

Boya BY-M1 Lavalier Microphone Review – Finally Fixing my Audio!

Marvin Gabriel

For the longest time since I’ve started my YouTube channel, I’ve had a hard time improving the audio quality of my videos. For starters, my room is quite echoey and our air conditioning unit is very loud. My first audio setup is using a BM 800 Condenser Microphone with a USB sound card on my laptop, since the USB sound card is not enough to power the condenser microphone properly, I had to increase the input gain to the maximum just so it can pick up my voice, but in…
