Read on in my Acer H6517ST projector review to find out how it surmounted its shortcomings to make it onto our list in the number five spot for the best projectors for 2016.
The ASUS ROG Strix GL502VT is a portable, nearly petite gaming laptop that is one of the best cases we’ve seen to date which proves you don’t always have to go big if you want a powerful gaming rig that follows you on the go. But will the extremely light profile of the ROG keep it from competing with its bigger cousins when it comes down to the raw specs of graphics, speed, or responsiveness?
If you’re in the market for a new Chromebook and value portability over all else, it’s hard to go wrong with the 11.6″ Samsung Chromebook 2.

But will the limitations of its refresh rate technology and lacking color accuracy be too much to justify the price of a ticket to entry?
Never heard of a “bed-in-a-box” before? Don’t worry, because if the recent deluge of new mattresses hitting the market in the first half of 2016 are any indication – you won’t be able to forget them before the year is out.
If you’ve listened to a podcast in the past few months you’ve probably heard incessant ads for the Casper mattress or the Novobed, while the UK-based Eve Mattresses has just begun shipping their own units stateside to muscle in on the competition. All three brands are relative unknowns both in the US and worldwide, and are looking to capitalize on what looks to be a new style of compression technology that the big mattress makers haven’t gotten wise to yet.
The HD141X projector is a cheap, light, and beautiful looking projector that has no business being the price it is, features which all helped rocket it to the top if our list of the best projector under $1,000 for 2016.

The Predator lineup of gaming-focused products from Acer continues to grow, this time taking the form of the Predator XB1 ultra-performance gaming monitor that made it onto our annual best gaming monitor list. With a 2560 x 1440 pixel count and an eye-melting 165Hz refresh rate, the XB1 is down and out the fastest monitor we’ve ever tested – but will those specs be enough to make up for its shoddy menu system and lackluster 2W speakers?
The BenQ XL2730Z is a gaming monitor that’s here to reduce your input lag and increase your kill/death ratio while you’re battling it out in multiplayer mayhem online. But is its higher price worth the cost of the benefits it offers over traditional monitors or 4K setups in the same cost bracket?
The Dell Chromebook 13 is unlike any Chromebook we’ve seen before, with business professional stylings and a set of specs that put it in the top tier of performance when it comes to Chrome OS.

Keep reading my Netgear Nighthawk X4S Review to find out why looks aren’t always the only thing that matter.
The MSI GT80S 6QE is a lumbering beast of a gaming laptop, edging the line between where “portable laptop” ends and “desktop with a screen” begins. But will its insane performance and mechanical keyboard be enough to outweigh the worries over its substantial footprint and annoying software package?
The Netgear Nighthawk X8 is everything you could ever want in a router and so much more, but will Netgear’s sluggish Genie software platform keep it from attaining its well-deserved status among the greats?
We’ve been on the hunt for the best gaming laptops in 2017, so the question remains: does the new ASUS G752VT have what it takes to top that list? Continue reading our Asus ROG G752VT review to see what it does right — and the many areas where the laptop still has room to improve.
Everything about what you see on the surface of the TP-Link Archer C9 wireless router would make you think it’s just another a mid-tier, run-of-the-mill consumer router that gets the job done and not much else; but oh how wrong you’d be.
Keep reading my TP-Link Archer C9 review to find out what makes this router one of the best values on shelves today.
The Acer Chromebook 15 is a powerful laptop with plenty of screen real estate to spare, but can those qualities alone help it rise above the competition and prove its worth to your wallet? Read my Acer Chromebook 15 review to find out more.
The Netgear Nighthawk X6 R8000 AC3200 wireless router is another entry into Netgear’s “ultra-perfomance” lineup of networking devices that look like they’re straight out of a military catalog, and perform with enough firepower to back it up. But will its stellar specs and user-friendly software be enough to make up for the areas where it fell short?
The Acer Predator 17 represents everything that’s right with the best gaming laptops in 2017, as well as the places where they’re still miles behind the rest of the curve at the same time. Read on in our Acer Predator 17 review to find out what we loved (and hated) about this gamer’s paradox in a box.

When buying a new router, there are a few different metrics you want to keep an eye on when making your final decision. The basic stuff like how fast is it or what kind of range are important enough on their own, but what separates a regular WiFi hub from the standouts like Linksys’ new EA7500 MU-MIMO router, are the added features you get as a part of the complete package.
