My first Mac I ever owned was a 2009 white unibody Macbook. I thought it was the coolest gadget on the block, until I realized there were more. After that, I ended up modifying my Macbook a little bit and then it began to slow down. I finally figured, it was time for an upgrade. Call me crazy, but I purchased an 11″ Macbook Air with an Intel Core i5 processor, 4GB of RAM, and a 128GB SSD (Solid State Drive). Despite my doubts, I did not make a bad choice. This has to be the smallest notebook I have seen outperform a 15 inch Macbook Pro from 2010. First of all, I was stunned it defeated a Macbook Pro and on how fast the laptop actually is due to the SSD. An SSD is a solid-state memory module that you can find on most iPad’s, iPod’s, and iPhone’s in the

Apple product line. Apple making a decision to integrate this into laptops was their best yet. Now, lets to the laptop itself. The Macbook Air is 0.68 inches at its thickest point and 0.11 inches at its thinnest point. The weight of the laptop is only 2.38 pounds and it sports an 11 inch screen. The pixel resolution on the laptop is 1366×768 compared my old laptop which had a resolution of

1280×720 pixels, so this was a pretty big jump. In the box, you get a charger, manuals, and some really sweet Apple stickers. I am currently using a case on this laptop, and the case is made by Speck. The

Macbook gets an average life to around 5 hours with screen brightness set to medium and laptop brightness turned off. Oh yes, I forgot to mention, it comes with a backlit keyboard! This is great for anybody who is on the go and is often in dark rooms or just when there is no light. Here are some pictures of the laptop. Now, if you want to see a whole series I am doing on the laptop, head over to my channel and check that out. My final rating for this laptop would be an 9.5/10. The reason why give such a shy rating is the graphics card. The graphics card in this computer is an Intel 3000 HD graphics. Its not a WEAK graphics card, but rather a low-end one. Thank you for reading my review!

I’ve owned Razer gear my entire life. They make awesome gaming peripherals with quality you just don’t see on average mice. Today I’ll be taking a look at one of Razer’s mice, the DeathAdder – Transformers 3 Edition. Here are some of the notable specs before we begin with the full review:

Design

Let me just say outright that there is little difference between the original Razer DeathAdder, and the Transformers 3 edition. The slight changes that you see between the two are purely aesthetic. That actually is a really good thing, as the DeathAdder is one of the most superior gaming mice on the market right now, only being bested by it’s big brother, the Mamba.

One of the most obvious factors of the mouse you see when you get your Transformers DeathAdder for the first time, is the bold design. My first word when opening the box was “WOW”. I got the Bumblebee variant, which is a brightish yellow, but the colors range with all the different Transformers. I can assure you, if you’re looking for a subtle mouse, this not your mouse. Each DeathAdder comes with a glowing Transformers symbol in the place of the Razer logo on the original DeathAdder, which matches the style of the mouse. I noticed that the light pulses depending on whether or not you’re using the mouse or not. One thing to note is that because of this light, the mouse can get quite hot with long hours of summer play. I don’t really like the glossed plastic effect they used on the body of the mouse, it just feels quite cheap. The rubber-ish style which you find on the original.

Performance

A truly awesome thing about having Transformers branding and Razer performer, is that you get the best of both words. During my play-tests with various games, I found the DeathAdder to be extremely responsive, and easy to manipulate. Trickshotting and sniping in games like Modern Warfare 3 were a breeze, because of the on-the-fly sensitivity changes, and the long hours of building in Minecraft was manageable. Unfortunately you do have to install the Razer drivers before DPI and other aspects of the mouse such as the lights become changeable, but this isn’t a huge deal as Razer’s site is easy to navigate, and I was up and running in no time.

The scroll-wheel and buttons on the mouse were fine just like any other Razer mouse I’ve used, but they didn’t blow me a way. The buttons are completely made of plastic, and the scroll-where is generally quite lightweight, and doesn’t allow the “rubber-banding” effect you see in high-quality wheels. For the average gamer however, they will do the job nicely.

To sum it up, I would recommend the Razer DeathAdder Transformers 3 Edition to people that are really into Transformers. There is isn’t much reason to spent the $10 or so for the brand. The performance you get with Razer mice is unparalleled though, so if you are into Transformers, or just want a vibrant-looking gaming mouse, this would be a good choice. The DeathAdder goes for $70 retail, but you can find it on Amazon for just over $50.

The rear side of the Kindle Fire.

A few weeks ago back, Amazon released the latest and greatest installment to their Kindle lineup- the Kindle Fire. If you’re like me and you got  in the month of December, you’re still tinkering with it, download books and apps, and doing tablet-ish things with it. If you’re still debating on if you should get one, look no further than this article.

Design

The Kindle Fire in sleep mode.

The Kindle Fire has a very simple design. With it’s 7-inch LCD IPS display surrounded by a nice, black bezel, the Kindle looks both professional and simple. On the back we find a nice, rubbery-plastic, that is easy to grip. However, I usually find that when I hold my Kindle, I hold it with my entire hand around it, because it’s so small. We also find on the back an engraved ‘kindle’  logo, along with the Amazon logo. The only grip I really have with the design is that the sleep-wake/power button is on the bottom, which is a little awkward to get to. I wish they would have put it on the top, or at least on the side. Speaking of the top, up there we find two stereo speakers, which I found to be very good. Sure, they aren’t Bang & Olufsen’s, but for a tablet, they get the job done. I also wish the Fire had a volume rocker on the side, being the only way to adjust the volume is to pull down the menu in the operating system.

Operating System

Amazon used their own version of Android for Kindle Fire. On my Kindle, the only software version it displays is “6.2.1_user_3103920″. Whatever that means. I cannot find a place in the actual operating system that tells me what exactly the version of Android it is.

The lock screen, in my opinion, is terrible. The lock slider goes from right to left, and when you think reading a book, you read from left to right. It almost seems like Amazon was trying too hard to make the Kindle Fire different. Heck, at least keep the normal lock screen from Android. Another grip about the lock screen is that I have not found one way to change the wallpaper. Amazon has loaded about twelve different photos on it, and I have not found away to change them. Very frustrating. I could go on for days about things that I don’t care for in the operating system. It has a lot of work to go under.

My current system version.

Bottom Line

At $199, the price is hard to beat. I think, however, that the Kindle Fire is almost too in the middle. What I mean by this is that it’s little brother is of course the original Kindle, and it’s big bro, the iPad. I think if I just wanted a normal e-reader, I would go with the Kindle. If I wanted more, the iPad. The Kindle Fire is just too much of a compromise. I would like to see a better operating system (and Amazon, when I say better, I want you to scrap the one now and start anew), and a front-facing camera.

The USB Port on the K800

Possibly my favorite feature of this keyboard, is that it’s wireless. In fact you can charge the keyboard with the USB port in the back. This means that you can run the keyboard wireless, or wired, which is a nice option to users. Having a wireless keyboard is better than most people give it credit for, as it really keeps a desk tidy.

This keyboard is backlit, even when running it wireless. Even when just leaving the keyboard on when I’m not at my computer, I still get around 20 hours of constant use before I have to charge it, which is pretty good all things considered. The tiny USB transmittor is tiny, which is awesome news for people that are on the move a lot.

A cool little feature that I’ve found when returning to my computer, is that when you touch the keys while the device is idle, it will activate the backlight. I’m not sure how the guys at Logitech managed to do this, but it never fails to impress me.

The K800 Doesn't Pick up Light Very Well

The design on this keyboard is just something you’d expect on a $90 keyboard; it looks nice and it’s thin. This keyboard unfortunately only comes in one color though, which is black. You know what this means? Grease stains. The one problem I have with grease stains is that it makes the keyboard look used even after minimal use, as the blacks are tinted. Logitech could have fixed this by making other colors available, or just taking out the “gloss”. It’s not a major issue, although you might want to consider this if you have greasy hands.

The K800 Has Function Keys for Windows Users

Just like any other keyboard, the K800 offers a host of function keys at the top of the keyboard. They can be activated by hitting the “FN’ button. There are actually quite a few function keys ranging from email, to song controls.

Typing on the K800 feels Amazing. It is on par with all other keyboards that I have used over the years, and tops even the MacBook keyboards, which I find to be best-in-class. If you want a keyboard that feels good to type on, look no further than this keyboard.

Overall, Logitech has done a nice job with the K800 keyboard. It is currently my favorite keyboard over the Apple keyboard, as it’s more orientated towards PC users. The wireless and back light features make this keyboard one of the best around right now.

The Logitech K800 is available on Amazon.com for $79.99

Today my Mac Laptop Case, IPhone four case and IPad 2 arrived. Below I will go through what I like and don’t like about the products and if they do what they are meant to.

Speck MacBook Case

Design

The design of the case is pretty simple and has the see through plastic that most apple products originally did. This is not a bad thing as it matches the theme of the product. The plastic is a turquoise colour and has the Spek logo on the front. On the back of the product there are holes for the fan of the computer which provides air vents for the Air. This helps so that there is a air flow around the laptop and the product doesn’t become too hot or the laptop doesn’t become too hot.

Build

The product has a fairly strong build and the plastic has a flimsy feel to it, it also bends when you handle it but doesn’t show any sign on breaking. The case is actually pretty strong would defiantly protect the laptop in little drops or scuffs. However this would not prevent damage from huge disasters for example a drop from a building. We wouldn’t really work out if the case was meant for design or for protection as it doesn’t a pretty good job at both considering the price tag.

Overall and Other Details

In a nutshell the product does what it is meant to it protect the product and looks good. It provides comfort when using it on your lap and doesn’t mark surfaces when on the table. The pads on the bottom of the Mac case are non-stick so they don’t apply themselves to the table after a long period of time. As for fitting the case actually fits snug around the Mac without slipping or gaps. The case provides a smooth touch and doesn’t have rough corners as they are smoothed off.

iPhone 4 Case

Design

Again the design is pretty simple but still provides the things needed for a iPhone 4 case. On the front of the case is the main gap for the touch screen which Is big enough for the whole screen. There are not separate covers for the home button or the front camera. On the bottom is the charger hole for the standard Apple charger. At the top of the case is a small indentation for the lock button and a hole for the standard 3mm audio jack. The left hand side of the case has 2 indentations for the volume and space for the silent switch. There are also holes on the back for the front main camera. There is also a hole for the microphone to stop any noise muffling. The main theme for the case is black and the pattern is a brick type tile arrangement. This again provides surface drip when holding or in bags, coats etc.

Build

The case has a strong build to it and although it doesn’t provide the most stable support for the iPhone 4 it still has te build to stop it from any little damage while in pockets and in contact with keys are sharp objects. Since the screen has indentations for the different components that are on the Phone it provides then from being pushed in when not in use. The rubber/silicone is rather strong and it would take a long hard drop to scuff the leather or damage the case. When bending the case it forms back to its original position and does not get left misshaped in any way.

Other Details / Overall

The case does what it is meant to and looks and protects well. Considering its price you should go and buy it if you want you IPhone to look the part. There is nothing really else to say about the case except we loved it. If we had to describe it in three words they would be strong, stylish , super.

iPad 2 Dust Jacket

Design

The design of the Dust Jacket is like the two other products simple but does the job. There is not really anything to say about the design except for the great looking leather like material that the case is made out of. On the inside of the Jacket is the holder for the iPad that keeps it inside. The back and sides of the case has all of the iPad 2 needed holes and indentations in. There is room for the charger, camera, volume buttons, microphones and other. The indentations and holes are really designed for ease and you don’t have to fight for 10 minutes to get the charger in.

Build

The case isn’t particularly strong as it isn’t meant to be we feel it is more for the look and for the thing it does. Although it isn’t strong the case is in no means flimsy and provides good support for the iPad no matter what position you have it in. The holder in the inside is made from plastic and again it isn’t the roughest going of all things but does the job. We like the case as It is the same but different from most of the others available on the market. In the sense we mean that it provides better comfort and more support for the iPad.

Other Details and Overall

The Dust Jacket does what it says on the tin it protects looks stylish and provides comfort working and doing pleasure for the iPad. The case provides a firm hold on the iPad when in the landscape or portrait position and has features for all of the components on the iPad. The packaging isn’t anything spectacular as it only came to us in a plastic sleeve. Although it’s what the products like and we loved it. The case comes in at a reasonable price for the quality of it and like all the Speck products it was a pleaser.

Go here to see some of there other products from Speck.

In-Ear Style – Wicked Audio Helix

Design

The design is pretty sweet and they really fit most of the bright colours that teenagers wear now days. The colours of the actual headphones and the wire blend in so the wire isn’t too noticeable.

The headphones feature the wicked audio logo on the actual part that fits inside your ear in yellow lettering. The headphones fit inside your ear with great ease and comfort but there is a hook that you have to put round the back of the ear to make sure they don’t fall out. This feature works like a charm and you can basically do anything in your casual day to day life without them falling out. This also means they are practical for sort and won’t come out when playing soccer, basketball etc. They people that designed the headphones obviously thought about how they could make them stay in and it worked but a disappointment t thing is there is not a huge difference between this design and most other good headphones on the market.

Build

The headphones might look a little flimsy and thin to wear some might say they look like they could break in a  instance but they don’t and that is what is good they are practical for everyday use and sporting use. The only not bad but element that could be improved is that the wire might be a little too thin for the headphones and could have had harder casing put around the wire.

Sound quality

The sound of the headphones when you have them in too the ears fully is rather good I must say as they provide a crisp and clear sound when you put on any genre of song. If the song is loud or quiet or classic or rock the headphones suit it and will match the style by providing an insulated and focused sound. The headphones actually have a frequency of 20 Hz – 20,000 Hz.The DB rating for the headphones is 103 dB which is quite impressive for the money you are paying. Other specifications for the headphones are Impedance 16 ohms, Driver 10mm which don’t really need much going over. The products where doubted at first but after we tested the products we found out that they are quite impressive indeed and can suit anyone. The headphones have a chord Length of 4ft./1.2.

Overall

The things we liked most were the value for money and the design as this proved to be some of the key areas for the headphones. The packaging is also designed greatly and proves to match the product that’s inside them. The product comes with different size ear buds for the different style earlobes small medium or large. So in a nutshell we really enjoyed the product and this particular model the Wicked Audio Helix Headphones.BE sure to check out the Wicked Audio Empire Brands website for cheap and good quality headphones.

Over-Ear Style – Wicked Audio Hero Headphones

Design

The over ear headphones are a real blast when it comes to design they are eye catching and superbly made. The headphones are bright which like the others make them match todays fashion and clothing. All the colours have a good contrast and blend in well and the feature the Wicked Audio writing that doesn’t dominate the product. The headphones fit over the head quite nicely and have that comfortable touch. The curve in the top to suit the head matches quite literally anyone. The writing on the top has a clear colour design and you can tell what the headphones say at even a quick glance. The out design of the headphone has two main colours of blue and yellow which really go well together and mix well.

Build

In no means are the headphones flimsy and are actually built rather well. They have a strong headband and strong headphones. The wire is perfect for the headphones and is the right width and the right size to make it secure. The volume slider also has a nice feel and build to it and is not a cheap and cheerful one that you find on most headphones at this price range. In terms of the actual speaker in the headphone it has a strong sense to it but doesn’t look the most promising of things for great wear and tear. The headphones are not to be put off by this as they are a great piece of none pricey kit.

Sound Quality

There is nothing really to say about sound quality except from what really we have been saying from the start. They are a great piece of kit of that price and they produce a great bass effect and crisp clear sound. The headphones also have High fidelity and are noise isolating. They have a frequency of 20HZ -20000 HZ.

Overall

Other features that the headphones have are a 180 degrees swivel, enhanced bass, High fidelity and a noise isolating. We mentioned some of them above but we feel this is crucial to say as the headphones do really do this. The headphones themselves have a adjustable headband and a in line volume control. The speculations of the product are they have a sensitivity of 112db , impedance of 32ohms a driver of 40mm and a chord length of 4ft.As you can tell from the above they are really a quite impressive piece of kit. I know we keep saying this but if you take a look at the price and then compare it to some of the other headphone retailers out there you are getting something good for money. In some words we would high recommend you to buy the products. These headphones also have some buttons, which with some iphone dev secrets can be implemented into pretty much any application.

Front View of the K-5

The Pentax K-5 is not a new camera but by no means an old camera as it still attracts new camera buyers and camera fanatics that know a lot about digital SLR’s.

Let’s start off with some key features of the Pentax K-5.

• 16.3 Mega Pixel CMOS Sensor
• ISO Sensitivity span of 51,200
• 1080p HD Movie capture that’s shoots at 25 fps and a
• Basic in build video editor
• External microphone input
• News 11+ saphox system
• 11 focus point with a wider array than the K-7
• 100% view finder coverage
• 3inch 921000 digital LCD Screen

The technicality of the product is amazing for its price and still matches most of the cameras out on the market at that price today. The K-5 is no means the same as the K-7 but if we compare most of the key aspects from both cameras there are a lot of the features that are the same.

Design

The design of the camera (body) is almost exactly the same as the K-7 and to the naked eye you can barely tell the two cameras apart. The shape, quality and construction quality are practically the same on both cameras with their sturdy and solidity of the magnesium alloy body.

Despite the smallish size it has a excelling build quality. The feel of the camera while holding it is quite light and makes it feel like a more professional product. While holding the camera it feel comfortable in one or two hands and the ergonomics of the product where obviously thought out well. The quality compared to the size of the viewfinder is remarkable and clear so you can see every detail on the product with ease. Also the eye piece is great since you get 100% coverage in the view of what you are shooting. It also offers 0.92 magnification.

The viewfinder is also compared to having warm color rendition this is far from unpleasant and can go without being noticed in normal shooting conditions. The button layout and functions of the camera where well thought out and it is easy to master where the controls are on the camera and what they do. Beneath the rear control dial is a green button which has two purposes one to instantly set aperture and shutting speed for the correct metered exposure in manual mode and the other thing it does is to set the camera back to the normal programme mode in hyper program mode. I’m not going to go into detail of what all the buttons do but here are a few more that I thought would be at interest for you Pentax followers.

There are some standard AF pattern selection switches this has a down side that the switch is not stiff enough and can be flicked by an accidental nudge. The Af button is in the middle of the camera and can be used to toggle auto focusing supposed to half holding the shutter down. Below the af switch are a range of buttons which provide access to the self-timer, while balance, flash and colour contrast and sharpness settings.

There is a standard LV button which turns it into live view mode. There is no Lv switch from photo to video mode you have to rotate the dial and select it.Up above the Raw/FX button there is the flash button which activates the in built pop up flash. For the SD card there is a single right hand side slide to lock door a standard mechanism for cameras today.

That’s really it for the viewing and look specifications that’s remarkable to the camera to finish off on the view it’s a well presented camera which suits any buyer male or female the camera also works with previous Pentax lenses.

Below is a table listing the full technical specification off of the Pentax website  it tells you all the nitty grits and bits that I’m sure you’ll agree it’s one impressive piece of kit when you compare it to the price Pentax are selling the camera for.

What’s new in the camera compared to older products and the K-7?

The K-5 From the Back

The most noticeable and new feature to the k-5 is the 16.3 megapixel Cemos censor. The iso sensitivity can be extended up to a full 51,200 at top end. The camera also has an 11+ saphox system with 11 focus points that have a wider array that the k-7 this means they have a better reach of what they can focus on. This is one of the best yet on the Pentax market. Other things that are new include an electronic level that detect vertical and horizontal tilt it can be toggled in the RAW/FX button. The K-5 camera offers a full 1080P recording that shoots at 25fps.custon image modes and digital filters can be applied to the footage. An external mic can be inserted but it costs and is sold separately. There are many more effects most of them appear in similar cameras but not to the quality and working satisfactory of the K-5.The camera offers 18 digital images modes/filters,9 new ones to the camera.

In terms of operation and controls it is basically the same as the K-7.Despite the size of the pleasing 3 inch digital lcd screen the Pentax designers and producers made a lot of room and good space for a considerable amount of buttons on the camera. The buttons are hard to operate with cold fingers when we went into the field shooting and also with gloves on are hard to control and set with gloves on but this is not a setback. The buttons have a great feel and press to them and can be operated simply and happily.

As with previous Pentax cameras, the K-7 has an amazing selection of external. It also has an exposure mode dial that plays host to the conventional PASM options. There are three Pentax only shooting modes – Sensitivity Priority Aperture Priority. You can also select the custom user mode in which you can create up to 5 different profiles.

There is no direct movie shooting button on the K-5 body, you must unlock the exposure mode dial and rotate it to the movie shooting position before you can record video. I suppose you may get used to it in the future.

On the top right of the camera there is a front dial which by default, adjusts shutter speed in TV and manual exposure modes. Just Behind this is the shutter release button and next to which is the main power switch.

I won’t go into much about the menus as it is practically the same as the other Pentax cameras. They are great menus and easy to navigate. At a first glance at the menu you would probably think what is this and how am I going to use this. This is only a first impression and as you get to know the menus and the ways they work they become easier to control. The menu is split into four main segments the custom menu, the shoot menu, the review menu and the settings menu. Otherwise known as the record, playback, setup and custom functions

The playback menu doesn’t offer as many options as the record menu but who would expect it to. It has the basic functions such as auto images rotation which is surprisingly sharp and does it almost instantly along with the slide show option which allows you to change the interval and transition mode. There not really a lot to be said about the view menu as it is pretty much the same as any other SLR on the market out there. No one really expect the review menu to change as nothing can really be done about it.

The settings menu is rather like the shoot menu with multi options and tools that makes the camera so easy to work with and use.

In a nutshell the menus are easy to navigate and change the options usually with the tap of two buttons to move across and select. There are several smaller menu buttons while shooting photos or videos that you can press to adjust the mode or features in the particular mode.

While in the Programme automatic mode which is probably the easiest mode to take high quality pictures in without having to adjust too many settings, to get the crisp clear look you expert from the camera. You can press the up arrow to take you to the shoot mode menu which allows you to change the shoot type to options like self-timer and multi shot mode. Each of the directions give you a different menu. The down arrow flash and the left and white arrows previous picture editing. These are all helpful and handy tips to make you pictures look better even when there still on the camera.

Overall Handling

The overall handling is superb and the feel of the camera when holding it is superb you basically get a more high end camera in the body of the K-5.This is in terms of the picture quality and the performance and what the Pentax is capable of. Despite the size of the camera being fairly small it lives up to the standard it should. The camera is quite like the K-7 with a few more features and improvements on the K-7 .The aspects that weren’t so good on the K-7 have been touched on and bought back up to standard with the K-5.The grip of the camera gives a comfortable handle on the camera and is easy to grip even for people with large hands or in the opposite direction of small hands. The menus maybe be scary and complex at first but as you get used to them you become more fluid with the operating. Another excellent thing is the button placement how easy it is to change the mode and settings from a few presses on the front of the camera without flicking through the menus. The video shooting expectations were high and we expected the films to be at a high quality which they were but we felt that they could have been a bit sharper and some of the cheaper video camera on the market did a better job. This doesn’t let the camera down as the videos are still at a 1080p HD and produce excellent videos just not the best.

Performance

The performance is excellent and what you expect from a modern DSLR. Shutter lag is minimal and the 7fps is fast and smooth producing the same quality pictures everytime.When the camera is not in the mulit shot mode the camera can still take several pictures while continuous clicking the capture button. The review time on auto review is about a second which isn’t really much of a delay at all while waiting for your picture to show on the LCD screen. Some things that did let the camera down was that in bright light the camera did overexpose a little under bright light and underexpose a little in dull and cloudy situations. In normal light the camera is at its best and work to the standard Pentax says it does. The ISO automatic functions are one of the best on the market. In its default mode, it aims to deliver a shutter speed adequate to prevent camera shake using the 1/equivalent focal length so a minimum of 1/40sec at 18mm, 1/200sec at 135mm, and so on. But there are two other options, labelled fast and slow. The instruction manual cover everything in detail so after reading that or just browsing through it you can master the camera in no time at all.

When we tested the fps we found the camera does shoot at a promising 7fps but can averagely range between around 6.4 and 7fps.Pentax says that the camera has a faster and more accurate autofocusing system than the K-7 which is does and to a much high standard as well. The camera has the safox IX+ the plus meaning that the sensor is also sensitive to light as well as colour. The camera shoots well in under most lighting conditions whether dull light or a mid-tone. When the camera is running low in battery you can really tell as the performance drops and the 1 second view time changes to about a 3 second view time. Also we feel that the changing in the menus slows down as well.

The Bottom Line

Overall the performance is fast and very responsive. The camera takes stunning pictures if you have it in the right setting and it offers personal user settings to personalize to your own unique style. Although the video is not as good as it could be the camera still offers 1080P HD.We have tested the camera in multiple environments and it works up to scratch. The camera offers a comfortable design and the ergonomics have been thought of well. Overall I would give the K-5 9 out of 10.With its amazing technical specifications it beats most of the new DSLR’s on the market out there. It is a promising camera and is worth buying if you are into photography or just want to take awesome photographs then the camera is worth having a look into.

Design

The design is pretty nice on this joystick though it is made of plastic. First of all, it has a great, sturdy base with rubber grips so it doesn’t slide around. Obviously there is a joystick in the middle that moves around, and last of all there are 11 programable buttons and a little “dial” thing.

Compatibility

This thing connects simply by plugging in the USB cord into your computer! No drivers or softwares are required to start using the joystick. It is also Mac and PC compatible which means that it works for almost everyone. The games that it work with range from flight simulators like X-Plane and Flight Simulator X, shooting games like Call of Duty, and so much more!

Customization

Like I said earlier, the joystick has 11 programable buttons that are strategically placed for many actions. For example, there is a button on the back of the joystick which is good for a trigger if your shooting, or if you are flying a plane it can be used for a engine starter! There is a little “dial” in the front which can be used for a throttle in a boat or plane simulator, or could be used to do pretty much anything!

Price and Conclusion

For only $20 dollars, this seems like a no brainier for those that want to one up their gaming experience. The build quality is solid, it works well, and its not very expensive!
