Review - Outlook for iOS

Outlook's swiping gestures help to quickly tackle a busy inbox. Ever since Google decided to stop supporting ActiveSync I've struggled to find a good Gmail solution on iOS.  Googles own Gmail app is full featured but it's painfully slow. There are other apps that have improved on the Gmail experience but they ignore Exchange email in the process.  If you work in a corporate environment chances are you need both. I'm happy to report that that struggle ends today.  This is Outlook, by Microsoft, for iOS.  It's not the full featured outlook that you'd find on a PC or Mac. But what it does have to offer are a wonderful combination of all the best email features I've been looking for. 

OtterBox Symmetry Follow Up

A review after using the product for a week or two is great, but there's always things that you don't realize until you've used the product for a few months.  In my comparison video of the Otterbox symmetry versus the commuter I harped on how the rubber of the commuter will easily get stretched out.  Even after several months of use the rubber around the volume buttons and around the ports on the symmetry case isn't stretched out like on the commuter series. 

Review - LifeProof Cradle for iPad Mini

Whether in a car, a boat, a big rig, or at your desk, having your iPad mounted in a fixed position can be very beneficial. This is the LifeProof cradle for iPad mini. It's molded to work specifically with their fré and nüüd cases. LifeProof boasts that it's lockable design also provides maximum security for your iPad mini.  Let's take a quick look at the hardware and see if it's worthy of the LifeProof name. 

Review - Aduro U-Grip Plus Universal Suction Cup Mount

 Suction cup phone mounts have always intrigued me. I really like the idea of having my phone easily viewable at all times while in the car. The problem was the online reviews. Half of the people say it's the best thing ever and the other half say it's terrible and don't waste your time and money. Who do you believe?   This is the  U grip plus by Aduro . It recently went on sale at Amazon for the amazing price of $9.99 with free shipping. Even if the negative reviews are right, this was worth the risk.

Review - LG Mega Capacity Washer and Dryer

If you want the best washer, you get a front loader.  If you want the best front loader you get an LG.  And if you want the best LG front loader, you get this. This is LG's 5.2 cu ft mega capacity washer.  It's definitely known for its capacity, but today in addition to that we're going to take an in depth look at some of the other features that LG has implemented and see if it's worth the hefty price tag that they require.
