jarvisen translator review translation

Jarvisen Translator Review: A translator for serious travel

Traveling and communicating in foreign lands isn't easy, but the Jarvisen Translator claims to be the best there is by translating up to 60 languages in real time. We put the Jarvisen Translator to the test, to see if it's worth its $429 price tag.
skydio 2 drone review static

Skydio 2 review: A drone that’s almost impossible to crash

Skydio 2 is billed as the world's most advanced auto-follow drone, so to test that claim, I took it to the most densely-forested mountain bike trail I could find and had the drone chase me at high speeds. Things definitely didn't go as I expected them to.

DJI Mavic 2 Pro and Zoom review: Pair of aces

After flying both the Mavic 2 Pro and Mavic 2 Zoom for over a week, we’re convinced that these are two of the best drones that DJI has ever made. Their biggest competition comes from DJI itself. So, is it time to upgrade?
DJI Mavic Mini review

DJI Mavic Mini review: A weekend with DJI’s affordable drone

DJI's Mavic Mini is the lightest and cheapest addition to the Mavic line -- but it's light weight and low price don't come without some compromises. It's also missing a few notable features that made previous iterations of the Mavic line so great
gazelle ultimate t10 electric bike review 5

Gazelle Ultimate T10 review: The best commuter ebike

Gazelle's Ultimate T10 is a practical commuting bike, yet it ups the ante with excellent design that races ahead of its boring competitors. Read our Gazelle Ultimate T10 electric bike review to decide if this is the commuter ebike for you.
haibike sduro fullseven 7 review mwn fullseven7 0 1

Haibike Sduro FullSeven 7.0 Review: More than its parts

The Haibike Sduro FullSeven 7.0 is a bike with a long name, an eye-catching look, and a collection of mediocre components that somehow are more than their sum. Here's our Haibike Sduro Fullseven 7.0 review.
schwinn monroe 250 review schwinnmonroe250disc ry 4

Schwinn Monroe 250 review: Making me a fan

Schwinn has been a household name for as long as anyone can remember, but it's not one often associated with electric bikes. The Monroe 250 looks to change that, providing ample range and excellent rideability while making compromises that may not matter to the everyday commuter.
swagtron ng2 electric skateboard longboard review swagtonr ng 2

Swagtron NG-2 electric longboard review: Budget bomber

Even if you hate the name, Swagtron's new NG-2 electric skateboard offers too much bang for your buck to be ignored. It only costs $400, yet it can ride circles around many skateboards that cost twice as much.
specialized turbo como 4 review 15

Specialized Turbo Como 4.0 Review: Comfortably quick

Specialized's Turbo Como 4.0 is a quick and comfortable ride that's perfect for your commute. It's more agile, and much faster, than you'd expect a commuter bike to be. It lacks the tech wizardry you might want from an ebike, but Specialized's 45 years of experience building bikes is obvious here.
Propella 3.0 electric bike

Propella 3.0 ebike review: Cheap thrills

The Propella 3.0 ebike is an evolutionary upgrade to an affordable ebike designed for urban commuters. The bike retains its signature styling and exceptoinal price, while upgrading its front fork for a smoother ride. Other changes include a new battery pack, LCD screen, and an optional suspension seat.

Amazon Echo Frames, Loop, and Buds hands-on Review: More Alexa to love

Amazon is going all-in on spy gear with all the new gear they announced at its September 2019 event. With the announcement of the Echo Frames, Echo Loop, and Echo Buds, it means that there are many more ways to love Amzon's Alexa with these new gadgets. We checked them all out to see they're practical.
ubco 2x2 review mwn 1

Ubco 2×2 review: Mountain goat

The Ubco 2x2 is a unique electric moped that combines high quality parts, off-road suspension, and lightweight design. The result is an approach, easy-to-ride electric steed that can handle both pavement and off-road terrain with ease. But is it worth its high MSRP?
3Doodler Create+ Leather Edition wood

3Doodler Create+ Leather Edition Review: Magic pen

The 3Doodler Create+ Leather Edition is being penned as the executive office pen meets 3D printing, with a particular focus on wood creations. Is it the one true 3D-printing pen to rule them all? We tested it out by tackling several projects and activities to uncover what makes it unique!
swagtron eb12 review 1

Swagtron EB12 electric bike review: The bare necessities

Can you buy a good electric bike for $1,000? If you'd asked in 2017, the answer would've been no, but bikes like the Swagtron EB12 have pushed entry-level ebikes to new heights. Swagtron's bike isn't without sacrifices, but most of what's cut won't be missed.
pedego city commuter lite edition review hero

Pedego City Commuter Lite Edition Review

Want an electric bike, but don’t want to pedal (much)? Pedego’s City Commuter Lite Edition might be the ebike you’ve been waiting for. It lacks pedal assist, but can hit 20 miles per hour on a flat, and you can buy it for less than $2,000. Read our full electric bike review.
bulls e stream evo fs 2 27 5 plus review feature

Bulls E-Stream EVO FS 2 27.5 Plus Review: Conquer tarmac and dirt with equal ease

Bulls E-Stream EVO FS 2 27.5 is a solid electric mountain bike, but its easy-going manners and pavement-friendly features make it a jack of all trades. Can this electric mountain bike also rule everyday riding?
CM Translator review

Hands on with the CM Translator, a pocket powerhouse for translation

The CM Translator from Cheetah Mobile seems the answer to every traveler’s dream: It translates between half a dozen foreign languages, including Chinese, Spanish, and Thai, at the push of a button. And it does it all with the power of machine learning and A.I.
onewheel pint review hands on feat

Onewheel Pint hands-on review

The Onewheel Pint is the newest addition to the Onewheel family. It’s smaller, lighter, and more feature-packed than ever before, yet it costs under $1,000. We took it for a test drive through the streets of Manhattan and were super impressed with its performance.
matterhackers pulse xe review 11

MatterHackers Pulse XE review

Thanks to ongoing advances in materials science, 3D printers can create objects in practically any material you want -- but unfortunately, not all printers can handle high-performance plastics. That’s where the Matterhackers Pulse XE comes in.
Monoprice Delta Pro review

Monoprice Delta Pro review

Monoprice’s big, bold Delta Pro is one of the most luxurious 3D printers we’ve ever tested, but its print quality isn’t anything to write home about. It comes packed with just about every high-end feature you could ever want -- and even a few you probably didn’t know about. But it all comes at a price.
Ember Wave

Warm up or cool down with the press of a button on the wrist-worn Embr

We review the Embr Wave, a personal heating and cooling wearable designed by a team of MIT engineers that’s now on Kickstarter.
Loto Legend Vaporizer review

Loto Legend Vaporizer review

Induction heating is the future of cannabis vaporizers. Loto Labs wowed us with what probably is the best concentrate vaporizer on the market today, and if you’re okay with parting with $500 of your hard-earned money it should be your next dab rig. It heats up fast, produces massive clouds, and gets the job done.
Yuneec Mantis Q review

Yuneec Mantis Q review

Yuneec’s high-end drones are arguably the ones to beat in terms of flight control, design, and their photographic capabilities. But the company has struggled to make a low-end drone that makes sense, and the Mantis Q is no exception. It’s missing functionality that should be included in a drone at its price point.
anycubic photon review 3d printer feat

Anycubic Photon 3D printer review

If you don’t mind working with messy resin, the Anycubic Photon 3D printer offers print quality that very few filament-based printers can achieve. This printer is on the same level as machines that cost six times as much. Dt ran the device through it's paces and came away impressed.
formlabs form 2 review

Formlabs Form 2 review (updated for 2018)

Thanks to a myriad of smart design upgrades, the Form 2 is more user-friendly than any other SLA printer we’ve ever encountered.
parrot anafi drone

Parrot Anafi drone review

It’s definitely not perfect, and there are a few little things that could be improved, but even so, Anafi is unquestionably the best drone that Parrot has ever made.
AirSelfie 2 Review

AirSelfie 2 review

The creators of the Airselfie 2 tout it as a flying photographer that fits in your pocket and snaps selfies from the sky. Unfortunately it’s more like a HandiCam controlled by a swarm of intoxicated bumblebees
monprice maker select plus review monoprice 3d printer full1

Monoprice Maker Select Plus Review

Monoprice sells a wide range of affordable printers, and after being impressed with its ultra-cheap models --the Mini Delta and the Maker Select V2-- we wanted to see if the $400 Maker Select Plus was worth the extra cash. Spoiler alert: it totally is.

dji mavic air review 8

DJI Mavic Air review

DJI managed to squeeze its most cutting-edge tech inside a folding drone that fits in your pocket.
dr dabber switch vaporizer review drdabber 3

Dr. Dabber Switch vaporizer review

Despite its high price tag, the Switch is a beast of a device in both size and performance. In our Switch vaporizer review, we put Dr. Dabber’s latest vaporizer, which is both concentrate and loose leaf compatible to the test. We weren’t disappointed.
Monoprice Mini Delta review

Monoprice Mini Delta review

Don’t be fooled by the $160 price tag: Monoprice’s Mini Delta 3D printer is a pint-sized powerhouse.
spark

DJI Spark review

If there’s one thing DJI is good at, it’s stuffing a ton of features and functionality into increasingly small drones. Nothing showcases this talent more than the DJI Spark.
