Roav by Anker, Bluetooth Receiver

Roav has just released another bluetooth receiver, this time a simple and easy to use device which allows you to have hands free and music in car or even at home.

The Roav bluetooth receiver comes in the orange and white paper packaging with Roav's colour scheme. Inside the package there is the round disc receiver itself along with the usb and aux cable. The nice touch is the usb and aux cable is bundled together, and this is really what this receiver needs a single cable with two connections!

I tried using it at home, connected to my home cinema system, I could play music loud with my phone in the pocket and answer any calls. Both the voice and music are clear and loud, the microphone is great too, the other side hear me very well, I could use this for a conference call when needed.

One small suggestion would be turn the outer ring into a volume control turning wheel much like the old iPod, this is just for fun not a necessity.

I highly recommend this, with a 5 stars full mark for this simple but useful bluetooth kit for your car. you can get it on Amazon.

Anker USB C Charger, 18W PIQ 3.0 Fast Charger Adapter, PowerPort III Nano USB C Wall Charger

The Anker new 18W USB-C charger comes in traditional Anker blue and white packaging: Inside there is the charger and documents including manual and the "Happy Card". Comparing to my iPad Air charger and also my iPhone charger, it is clearly a winner, the iPad charger is 12W and iPhone is merely 5w, but similar sized Anker one is 18w. Plugged into the UK socket, it leaves a very small footprint and doesn't affect anything else, comparing to my MacBook Pro's charger the Anker one is like a baby :) Then I tested charging various devices: Anker PowerCore Essential 20000 PD: Xiaomi Mi 8: Nintendo Switch: and my trusted iPhone 7 Plus (no fast charging but good to see backward compatibility): Conclusion : The new Anker 18W USB-C charger is clearly the winner, it is the first charger build into a UK plug shaped body, very compact in size, thanks to the GaN technology it provides a whooping 18W charging for the size. It pro...

iPhone Cable, Anker PowerLine II Lightning Cable 1.8m

The first thing this Anker PowerLine II Lightning Cable strikes is how long it is, at 6 feet it suits perfectly for me to put beside my bed and I can use and charge my iphone while lying on the bed. It is super simple to use, just like the stock cable plug and play, you can plug on a wall socket, computer or a powerbank. The build quality is really good, a lot thicker than the Apple one and a lot cheaper too! I have seen people dragging a car using this cable and it still works! That would definitely help when my two year old pulling my phone while charging (That’s how I lost my apple one). This is now my favourite cable and I am thinking to buying another one to use in my office too.

Anker Eufy Lumos Smart Bulb

Eufy is a new brand from Anker that is very well known for its power banks and charging solutions, this brand is for the home appliances like robot vacuum cleaner. The new Eufy Lumos Smart Bulb is a new product to the family, a lightbulb that can be turned on and off by using a smart phone app. Compare to the many other smart light bulb, Lumos has a great advantage: no hub or bridge is needed, only wifi signal that is available in most homes. this smart bulb I have is just white but they also do a coloured version. In test I have my wifi router at 1st floor and I have no problem control my light bulb on the ground floor even at the furthest point away, the light bulb is very bright at 800 lumen. One thing I would like to see it improve is to have IFTTT support, which would open a whole new world to have different conditions that automatically turn on/off the light bulb. 💡 I would recommend for people who need a smart light bulb, you can get from here: Amazon Link ...
