WHAT IS THIS CHANNEL ALL ABOUT?
I have zero interest in deep spec dives or long-winded comparisons. I review laptops, smartphones, tablets, headphones and the latest tech based on real experience. I’ll tell you how it’ll make you feel, whether or not it’s worth your time (and money) and help you find the tech you need to get stuff done.

WHO AM I?
I’m a UK-based freelance marketer and broke free of a regular job many years ago. Watch my videos to find the tech you need, without the jargon.
