[Lightning Review] VaVo From UDS: The Makers Of Capta Deliver Again

Posted by in Other Reviews

We first heard about Vavo through its Kickstarter campaign – which was successfully funded by roughly 200% – back in June of last year. The product has been available in the retail scene for a little while now, and I've actually had a pair of them (one white, one black) for the last few months. As such, I've had plenty of time to get a feel for VaVo's strengths, as well as its weaknesses.

With that, let's take a closer looksee.

What is it?

As described by UDS, VaVo is "an ultra portable universal smart phone and smart device accessory. It has 2 simple functions, propping your device at a variety of angles and mounting your device on flat vertical surfaces for viewing purposes." And that pretty much sums it up: it's a removable, versatile kickstand-esque accessory.

New Kickstarter Project From UDS (The Makers Of Capta/Vavo) Called 'Snable' Aims To Put Those Cluttered Cables In Their Place [Hands-On]

Posted by in News

As someone with approximately 1600 gadgets laying around the house at all times, I constantly have charging cables everywhere. On the floor. On the desk. On my nightstand. In the kitchen, living room, and even the car. You get the idea. For the longest time, I have used the binder clip trick to manage the flurry of chargers on my desk. But now, UDS – the creators of Capta and Vavo – have a better solution: Snable.

The company was cool enough to send me a couple of pre-production samples made with a 3D printer, so this is the first time that we've actually gotten to spend some hands-on time with a Kickstarter project before it even started funding.

Check Out MODO, An Insanely Versatile Desktop Organizer For Your Digital Devices And More

Posted by in News

I'd like to think that office/home organization is a pretty big deal to most people, because it certainly is to me. Perhaps it's just my nature, but I live by the motto "a place for everything and everything in its place." Then again, I'm a Virgo, so being a freak about things like that is engrained into my very being (or so I've read, anyway). Ergo, I'm always looking for new ways to make things more organized and easier to find.

Enter MODO, on of the coolest modular desk organizers I've ever seen.

This versatile little tool of joy comes to us as a Kickstarter project from B&A Studio, with a little help from our friends at UDS, the makers of CAPTA.

From The Makers Of Capta Comes A New Kickstarter Project: Meet Vavo, Your New Universal Stand/Mount/Kickstand

Posted by in News

A few weeks ago we looked at Capta, a universal mount that adds the ability to mount your smartphone on a tripod. The creators of Capta, UDS, now have a new Kickstarter project that utilizes the same "alien goo" material to bring even more functionality to your smart device. Meet Vavo.

Basically Vavo is a nifty little gadget that uses the same sticky junk as Capta to hold on to your device. It can hold your device in a multitude of ways, including upright, angled (with its kickstand) or on the wall. Yeah, that last one is definitely my favorite.
