Review: Best Touchscreen Gloves — Moshi Digits

03/20/2017 By Hakan Can

Today is the Vernal Equinox. For those of you who don’t know what this means, it’s the first day of Spring. If you live here in New England, you wouldn’t know it was Spring. You probably think it’s still Winter with all the snow around. With that said, when an opportunity came along to test what could be the best touchscreen gloves for cold weather, I replied “There’s such a thing?” The short answer is Yes, there is such a product. So without further delay, let’s take a closer look at one particular pair of touchscreen gloves in this Moshi Digits review.

Are Moshi Digits the Best Touchscreen Gloves available today?

Fall and Winter present challenges to a tech-mobile lifestyle. Most of us are addicted to texting, some more so than others. Even as the temperatures get colder, we continue to text, regardless of our surroundings.

Picture this scenario. You’re outdoors in Cold City, USA. I happen to live just outside of Boston. Feel free to insert your city: Chicago, Minneapolis, Missoula, etc.

You would prefer not to text in 20-degree weather, but you just received a text, and you’re compelled to respond. We already established the addiction.

You receive a text, remove your gloves, respond to the text, maybe send another or two, put the gloves back on, and repeat the cycle over and over again. At some point, this removing and putting back on your gloves gets tiresome. Maybe, you decide to keep them off altogether and brave the elements. Now you’re just asking for trouble, i.e. frostbite.

What if there was a smartphone/tablet touchscreen glove for the cold times of the year? It turns out there are, with many choices available. This is where Moshi Digits come into play.

Moshi Digits

Made by a collective of elves, dwarfs, and the last surviving descendants of the Salem witches, these gloves are woven from long-forgotten mystical fabrics enchanted with Pixie dust.

Some of you are shaking your heads wondering ‘What did he just say?’ You may have even said that thought out loud.

If you believe what I just wrote, just know that none of it is true. I mean, come on. Everyone knows that North America’s last community of elves and dwarfs died in the great San Francisco Fire of 1906. And there are no descendants of the witches of Salem, having been snuffed out since 1693.

Instead, Moshi Digits are dual-layered gloves. The polyester outer layer fingertips have conductive fiber with a micro fleece inner layer. To say these touchscreen gloves are soft and comfortable may be an understatement.

They also have this feature called GripTrak™. You see a pattern of dots and lines across the inside of the gloves. This feature adds a level of grip to prevent you from dropping your mobile device. Not all of us use shatterproof cases, so GripTrak™ comes in handy.

Two of us tested the Moshi Digits touchscreen gloves. We both found the gloves function as advertised. My niece enjoyed the gloves more than I, and she’s in a slightly colder environment. In her case, best use of the smartphone gloves is in the commute between college buildings.

My situation is a bit different. The accuracy of your texts with touchscreen gloves is dependent on how well you actually text. I say this because I don’t text very well. I’m a bit clumsy with the fingers. In my testing, the accuracy of the texts was no better with or without the gloves on. Either way, my texts survive with the use of the AutoCorrect feature.

Regardless, the gloves, and I do mean all ten fingers and thumbs, yield accurate results on the mobile screen. Some of us just need to focus more than others on what we’re actually typing.

I used the gloves while shoveling snow from the driveway and while driving. If you think the slip-free feature works well on a mobile phone, try it on a shovel handle or a steering wheel. It works too well.

A Few Drawbacks

While these gloves are manufactured for outdoor use, they aren’t meant for all day use, especially when it’s truly cold outside. In fact, I would limit wearing up to 30 minutes at any stretch when it’s below freezing temperature. Woven fabrics will keep your hands warm, but only for so long. The material is not ideal for blocking the wind, especially a cold wind. This is why I carry two pairs of gloves, one for texting and one for longer outdoor exposure.

As these gloves are fabric-woven, they aren’t water-resistant so don’t go making snowballs. I doubt you want to text with soak-and-wet gloves. On the flip-side, they are hand-washable. You can feel good about that.

Also, keep them away from Velcro, which is the enemy of fabric-woven products everywhere. A lot of Winter clothing have Velcro straps, so be mindful before making contact between the two materials. One material will fray the other.

Moshi Digits weigh in at 2.43 ounces and are available in two sizes/colors: dark gray (L/XL) and light gray (S/M).

Conclusion

In our testing, Moshi’s Digits performed quite well. They happened to be super-comfortable too. In fact, these gloves are quite comfortable even after many hours of continuous use. Just be mindful of the outdoor conditions especially when you plan to be out for a lengthy period. At $29.95, these touchscreen gloves are well-priced in the marketplace in addition to outperforming much of competition within its category.

HyperX Cloud Revolver S Headset Preview

03/14/2017 By Hakan Can

The All-New HyperX Cloud Revolver S Headset

Days before this past weekend’s PAX East, we started hearing whispers that the folks at HyperX were set to introduce a new product at the annual gaming expo. Knowing what the HyperX product line-up was for the first half of 2017, we were highly confident that the HyperX Cloud Revolver S headset was set to make its public debut. We were correct, and on March 13th, it became available for retail purchase.Having seen the HyperX Cloud Revolver S headset two months ago at CES, we were looking forward to the released product. We weren’t disappointed.

• Comfortable fit and attractive design
• Dolby® Surround 7.1 audio
• Directional drivers of 50mm size

• TeamSpeak and Discord Certified
• New, wider solid-steel frame
• Promotional Price of $149

[envira-gallery id=”7610″]

HyperX Cloud Revolver S Design, Features, and Fit

If you walked around many of the live streaming sets like EVGA‘s for example, you’d notice that the streamers were wearing gaming headsets from the HyperX Cloud family. This should tell you something about the brand.

This new gaming headset is the successor to the popular Cloud Revolver. The HyperX Cloud Revolver S comes with a near identical look to its predecessor, now with Dolby® Surround 7.1 audio, a wider, solid steel outer frame, and a matte black finish.

The first improvement you’ll notice with this Hyper Cloud gaming headset is the vibration that appeared on its predecessor is now gone. No more ‘twang’ sounds. Next, you’ll notice an advanced audio control box and the headset’s Dolby® Surround 7.1 audio capability. (More on sound in our full review.)

Headphone and microphone volumes are controlled by dials on the right with an equalizer button on the left. This equalizer button cycles between 3 modes: Vocal, Flat, and Bass Boost. You’ll find Dolby® Surround and microphone mute buttons in the center.

All-in-all, it’s a nicely designed controller.

HyperX Cloud Revolver S Performance

The Dolby® Surround 7.1 sound quality is quite impressive! I briefly got to test this headset with gaming, films, and music. Believe it or not, I was most impressed with Bluegrass music. No Joke.

Like its predecessor, the Cloud Revolver S comes with Circumaural, Closed-back Dynamic 50mm directional drivers positioned parallel to your ears. Frequency response remains the same at a range of 12 Hz- 28000 Hz.

This HyperX gaming headset comes with an attachable uni-directional, noise canceling mic with a frequency response of 50 Hz-18000 Hz.

In Summary

This new gaming headset offers plenty of features at a $149.99 price point. Feel free to compare it against other brands and models at this price.

The headphones support Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, and numerous mobile and virtual reality devices.

Within each package comes the Cloud Revolver S headset w/1M Cable, a detachable NC microphone, and an advanced audio control box w/2M cable.

The HyperX Cloud Revolver S gaming headphones come with a 2-year warranty. Should you need to reach Customer Support, feel free to call one of these two numbers: 714-435-2639 or 800-435-0640.

Moshi Vortex Air Headphones Review

03/04/2017 By Hakan Can

Moshi Vortex Air–Solid, Premium, and Bluetooth

Let me tell you a brief story. Two weeks ago, I had the pleasure of attending my very first Toy Fair NY at the Jacob Javits Center. As great an experience as this was, my trip didn’t end there. I still had a multi-hour Megabus ride back to Boston to endure. Lucky for me, I remembered to bring along Moshi’s new Vortex Air Bluetooth in-ear headphones to demo on the return leg. This 4½-hour stretch of time did not go to waste. So without further adieu, let’s take a closer look in this Moshi Vortex Air headphones review.

Pros:
• Modern look and midweight design
• Highly comfortable fit
• Terrific sound reproduction
• Well priced ~ $120

Cons:
• No wall outlet plug included
• No carry pouch included

For once, I was able to ignore the bumps, the braking, the acceleration and deceleration of the bus’s journey and focus on the music.

Moshi Vortex Air Headphones Review – Solid Design

The design of the Vortex Air headphones is one which is mid-weight (0.98 ounce) and easy to operate.

Upon examining these headphones, you’ll notice the solid construction of the Vortex Air. Even though the headphones are made of RigidBody™ steel alloy construction, they weigh in at just under 1 ounce. While this may or may not be lighter than what you’re currently using for wireless in-ear headphones, still, you’ll barely feel them in your ears. You’ll only notice the music. I know this to be true as I’ve typed much of this review while wearing the headphones listening to The Black Keys.

As of today, the Vortex Air headphones are available in one color: Dark Steel. Should additional colors be introduced down the road, this post will be updated.

(If more than one color were available, your mobile device would recognize the color of the headphones. This is how pairing operates with the Mythro Air. Your mobile device would list all colors and recognize them as individual devices.)

The 5 Things You Need To Know for Operating the Vortex Air

To power on the Vortex Air, press and hold the (single) button until the blue light appears. It will only take a few seconds for it to appear.
To power off the Vortex Air, press and hold the (single) button until the red light appears. Again, it will only take a few seconds for it to appear.
To pair the Vortex Air to your mobile device, hold the (single) button until the blinking blue light appears. It will take about 5 seconds for it to appear. Then head to the Bluetooth Settings on your mobile device and pair the earphones.
On the volume controls, volume up and down is controlled by pressing the upper and lower silver tabs. The center tab controls answering calls, playing or pausing the track, and forwarding and reversing the track. To forward and reverse the track, be prepared to press 2x or 3x quickly or the desired result won’t be achieved.
Play time lasts for 8 hours at 50% volume with a 100 hour standby time. Charging the headphones takes approximately 2 hours. You’ll notice a pulsing red light while charging.

You’ve got to appreciate a pair of headphones when there’s little that you need to know for proper operation. It couldn’t be simpler.

Per Michael Leonhard, President of Moshi, “Mythro Air and Vortex Air are designed to deliver the ideal Bluetooth audio experience for the everyday commuter and traveler. Compact and light, our new Bluetooth audio lines are built with sound quality, ergonomics and battery life in mind to provide a pristine audio experience.”

As we often state when reviewing headphones, the most important performance factor is the quality of sound. I tested the Vortex Air with a broad range of music per the list above. In my review of Moshi’s Mythro Air, I made comparisons against the Monster iSport SuperSlim Bluetooth wireless in-ear sport headphones and the Decibullz Custom-Fit Bluetooth wireless earphones. Since the Mythro Air outperformed both competitors, there was no point to review against them again. Rather, I reviewed the Vortex Air against the Mythro Air.

In the Moshi Avanti and Mythro Air reviews, I noted that “the sound across the 15Hz – 20kHz spectrum was rather good.” With the Vortex Air, the gaps (particularly with the bass) I noticed with the Mythro Air have been closed.

Having reviewed the Mythro Air, I already knew rock music would perform well. I was not disappointed. The playback of both Muse and 30 Seconds To Mars was incredible and performed per my expectations. So I needed to kick it up a notch.

Remember the Megabus ride I wrote about in the opening paragraph? This drive was the perfect opportunity to test the Vortex Air with My Chemical Romance and The Prodigy. Say what you want about these two groups, they are talented artists and have millions of fans worldwide. And having seen both groups live in concert, those memories are ingrained in me.

If I were in a less public space, I would have totally rocked out and started my own mosh pit. There aren’t many wireless in-ear headphones that can transport me back to a concert to relive it between my ears. While the driver would have objected, I so wanted to get up and mosh with the other passengers on tracks like The Prodigy’s Thunder and Take Me To The Hospital. The same can be said with tracks from The Black Parade.

The vocals of Lana Del Rey and Lady Gaga were sharp and vivid, just like with the Mythro Air. Throughout all the listed albums, keyboards and lower frequency bass and percussion sounds were pronounced and defined. The Vortex Air headphones blew me away.

There aren't many wireless in-ear headphones that can transport me back to a concert to relive it between my ears. Share on X

I nearly forgot to mention that switching back and forth between music and incoming calls worked like a charm.

Moshi Apps

Burn-In Tool App

Moshi takes the earphones/headphones market with a high level of seriousness, so much so that they offer an app which assists with the burn in of their products. The app called Burn-in Tool is available via Apple’s iTunes and Google Play Store. We’ve sampled dozens of earphones and have never seen any of these established brands offer such a tool. The closest app that comes to mind is Captune by Sennheiser, but it’s quite different than Moshi’s Burn-in Tool.

I used Android-based Motorola Moto X Pure and Google Pixel mobile phones and had no issue with the app. The one thing I will say about Burn-in Tool is the sound pattern is quite annoying and not meant for your ears. If you plan to use Burn-in Tool, I highly recommend you place your mobile phone and earphones in some other room, close the door, and let them do their thing for at least four hours. If you need your phone at some point, you can always pause the sound pattern and complete the task later.

[soliloquy id=”6518″]

[soliloquy id=”7185″]

Bluetooth Audio App

Currently available only on Apple’s iTunes, Moshi offers its Bluetooth Audio app. This app provides customized support for Moshi’s Vortex Air headphones. According to Moshi, this app allows for the following:

Use their proprietary DJ4two™ functionality that lets your friend listen to the same music you’re listening to so you can enjoy your commuting and traveling together.
Lets you adjust and save your preferred equalizer settings for a truly customized listening experience.
It provides battery level status, so you know how much power is left in your Bluetooth headset.
Lets you set the alarm when the battery life is low, lets you change your headset’s device name, enables auto power-off, and shows a list of accessories that are currently paired.

Conclusion

In my testing, the Vortex Air earphones from Moshi performed phenomenally. The production of strong, clear vocals, guitar, and bass was a breeze for the Vortex Air.

It’s easy to say that the Vortex Air are now my go-to Bluetooth headphones. I can only imagine how much better they would sound if I had accessed an equalizer. Finally, I had a pair of Bluetooth in-ear headphones that could play my music library the way I expected it to sound.

While these aren’t dedicated sport headphones, I still needed to test them during a cardio workout. The result was they performed quite well, holding in place when used with the memory foam ear tips. On the same workout, the silicone ear tips are likely to fall out from the constant movement, even with the use of the magnetic clip.

There was no issue when used during weight training or cycling. And the sound isolation from your surroundings is excellent.

Just like the Mythro Air, these headphones are quite comfortable even after many hours of continuous listening. As mentioned above, you won’t notice they’re in your ears after a short while. You can thank a minimalist design approach for this. At $120, the Vortex Air headphones are well-priced in the marketplace while outperforming much of its categories competition.

Here are the JBL Portable Bluetooth Speakers set for release in early 2017

02/26/2017 By Hakan Can

JBL has a handful of Portable Bluetooth Speakers set for release beginning February 2017

Ever wonder why most headphones brands don’t manufacture speakers and vice versa? I hadn’t thought about this question much until I visited with the folks at HARMAN at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show. HARMAN, through its various brands like JBL, manufacturers all types of headphones and speakers. While at their CES showroom, you can’t help but be impressed with the diversity of product lines and categories. What does JBL have in store for us in early 2017? They are set to introduce no less than four speakers, mostly via updates to existing models. Let’s take a deep dive into the JBL portable Bluetooth speakers 2017 line-up and find out.

Just Released: The New JBL Flip 4 Bluetooth Portable Speaker

JBL has taken their wildly popular and well-rated Flip 3 speaker, made a number of improvements (such as sound clarity and bass,) and turned it into the Flip 4 speaker. This CES Innovations Award winner has gone from having a splashproof design to a waterproof one with an IPX7 rating. The JBL Connect feature has now become Connect+ allowing for over 100 JBL Connect+ enabled speakers to play the same music from the same source device.

Features that continue to grace the Flip line are Siri and Google Now voice assistant integration, the use of durable fabrics, and the echo- and noise-cancelling speakerphone. The JBL Flip 4 is available now for $99.

Per the press release, “With improved sound clarity and bass, up to 12 hours of playback time and a waterproof design featuring rugged new fabrics, the JBL Flip 4 is a perfect companion to make life more fun. Wirelessly connect up to two smartphones or tablets to the speaker and take turns playing impressive stereo sound.”

[soliloquy id=”7514″]

JBL Flip 4 Bluetooth Portable Speaker

• List pricing of $99
• Weight: 515 grams
• Dimensions: 68 x 175 x 70 mm

• Available in 6 colors: Black, White, Teal, Gray, Red, and Blue

Recently Released: The JBL Charge 3 Bluetooth Portable Speaker

Although not exactly a new product, the Charge 3 speaker has been updated with five fabric patterns for 2017. The downside of the statement mentioned above is that these fabric designs are for the European market only. I know, it’s disappointing news. If you happened to see these at CES like I did, cross your fingers and hope that JBL will reconsider releasing them into North America.

02/20/2017 By Hakan Can

If you were to ask what I look forward to most at the annual Consumer Electronics Show, my response would be the latest products from Audio-Technica. Due to continual innovation, they’ve been a brand worth watching from the time I first attended CES. In that tenure, I’ve been impressed with the broad range of headphone products from their Sonic Sport® line, to the Sonic Fuel®, the Solid Bass®, and their gaming headsets. What does Audio-Technica have in store for us this spring? Audio-Technica is set to introduce no less than two on-ear, three over-ear, and 11 in-ear headphones in April 2017 to their current product line. Let’s look further into the Audio-Technica headphones 2017 model line-up and find out.

Answering the above-stated question, we’re set to see headphones in newly created categories such as Pure Digital Drive, Live Sound, and Sound Reality, in addition to those in existing categories.
