SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless with maOS and iPadOS
by
Almost a year back my SteelSeries Wireless H headphones finally died after many years of stellar use. I tried to simply use my PowerBeats Pro for all my macOS, iPadOS, and iOS needs throughout the day, but they simply weren’t cutting it. Yes the mic is decent, and they change between devices fairly easily, but…
Peak Everyday Pack – Retiring the Peak Everyday Messenger
by
Recently Peak announced the release of version 2 of both the packs I will be reviewing today. The messenger was purchased when a friend was done reviewing it and wanted to sell it, a few months before the announcement of V2 bags. I purchased the Everyday Backpack a few days after the announcement of the…
PowerBeats Pro – 4 Month Runners Review
by
When I’m not spending time being dad or attempting to be a decent husband, I’m often found in the mountains on some adventure. Running on the regular trails, bushwhacking some new route through the river valley, or just training so I can do the other two things quickly with the limited weekends I have to…
A Terrible Folding Bluetooth Keyboard With a Trackpad
by
Today we’re going to talk about two different folding bluetooth keyboards for your iPad. One is good for a small portable keyboard, and the other is more than a bit terrible. Watch the video to find out which one is worth purchasing. – [Folding Bluetooth Keyboard](http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00YWLJNPQ/?tag=blogcurtismchale-20) – [Folding Bluetooth Keyboard with Trackpad](https://www.banggood.com/Mini-Foldable-Touch-3_0-bluetooth-Keyboard-For-Samsung-Dex-WiniOSAndroid-System-p-1246278.html?p=B4180140249144201910) ## Other Videos…
One Month With the Inateck KB02010 iPad Pro Keyboard Case
by
Let’s start this with a disclaimer, Inateck sent me the keyboard I’m reviewing today. They reached out to me about sending it to me for review, and since it was already on my list I said yes. Outside of that, they have said nothing about how it’s reviewed or what I say about it. Now,…
How Does the LG 27UL500 Work With Your IPad Pro?
by
This year I’ve done some major office upgrades, going from a 9.7” iPad Pro to a maxed out 12.9” as well as upgrading an aging MacBook Air to a new fairly well upgrade Mac Mini. That left me with really only one big upgrade left to do, my older Dell 24” monitor. At the time…
StayGo USB C Hub for Your iPad Pro?
by
One of the crucial parts of any good ergonomic iPad desk setup is a solid USB C hub. For a while I used the Kingston USB C hub (see my video review), and while it’s decent it’s not perfect so I was on the lookout for something better. In particular I wanted a wired connection…
Budget Noise-Cancelling Wireless Headphones: Plantronics Backbeat Pro
by
Noise cancelling headphones are a thing, a great thing. While there are many expensive options, I don’t have that kind of money to get headphones right now so I had to look at less expensive options. Enter the Plantronics Backbeats Pro, which I got at my local Best Buy one evening about 6 months ago.…
Fixing My Wifi With Eero
by
With my family complaining about the Wifi performance in parts of the house I was watching Black Friday deals. Well, there is now an Eero system in the house and you can watch me muddle through setting it up. ## Links – [Purchase Eero on Amazon](http://www.amazon.com/dp/B07WMLPSRL/?tag=blogcurtismchale-20) ## My Gear – My gear: https://curtismchale.ca/my-gear – Patreon:…
2 Years with the GoRuck GR1
by
Yes I like backpacks. My wife often says, and is totally correct, that I have more bags than she does. I guess it’s my quest for the ‘perfect’ bag. The one that easily transitions from a work commuting pack to a weekend dad bag then with a quick repack can handle a 24 hour trail…
