Baseus Eli Sport 1 Open-Ear earbuds review: Budget never sounded so good
Listen to your favorite tunes and keep your head on a swivel for under $100
As a long-term resident of New York City, a pair of great wireless earbuds are almost a necessity. They help keep out some of the more jarring sounds of the busy city. They aren’t, however, the most helpful when it comes to staying aware of your surroundings. And depending on the shape of the bud, they can feel uncomfortable after some time. Baseus, a Chinese company that makes everything from mobile chargers to vacuums, offers a solution with the Baseus Eli Sport 1 Open-Ear TWS earbuds, its first-ever open-ear buds.

Unclutter your desk without breaking the bank
There was a time when going on a short vacation meant carrying a variety of charging adapters and cables to power up our devices. But thanks to the emergence of USB-C, this is no longer the case. Let's not forget the plethora of fast charging adapters out there that can recharge your phones (and laptops) in double quick time. But what if you need to charge more than one device at a time, say around four?
Baseus Bowie MA10 review: Sub-$30 stunner earbuds
The MA10s aren't flawless, but they sound incredible for their low price
I didn't have high hopes when unboxing the bulky Baseus Bowie MA10 earbuds, because we've all had that experience: misplacing your favorite headphones and having to buy the cheapest earbuds you can find, which do in a pinch, but eventually get forgotten in a drawer. The MA10, typically found for under $30, are anything but that. They sound great, easily comparable to earbuds that would cost three times their price (or more). If you care more about how your earbuds sound than their connected app experience, or their touch controls, Baseus' earbuds give you solid, budget beats.

Buying a new USB-C hub: Lessons learned
Cable length and position, form factor, ports, everything matters
A couple of months ago, I only had one USB-C hub, a simple Moshi adapter that I've owned since 2018 and that offers HDMI, USB-C and USB-A ports. But I got tired of carrying around a separate MicroSD USB-C reader, so I thought I'd buy a fully-featured hub with all the ports I needed. My husband needed one too because of the demands of his new job. Somehow, a simple purchase or two turned into a USB-C hub experimentation, and we now find ourselves with a bunch of hubs that we've either bought or received for free (through his work or mine).
I never knew I needed a portable USB-C desk lamp in my life, but here we are
This Baseus contraption is the most versatile desk lamp out there
I didn't set out looking for a desk lamp, I was simply researching ways to provide a bit of extra light for my Android Police gadget photography. You know, for images like the ones you see on top of our articles. For weeks, nay months, I've been lost among the small LED panels, the portable photo studios, the huge light umbrella-looking thingies, and every apparatus in the middle of that range. Then it occurred to me that for one, Parisian apartments are small enough that I didn't have the space luxury to store big paraphernalia, and for two, maybe I just needed a small light or two to put near me when taking pics like... a bedside lamp or... a desk lamp?! Then I could also use them as a regular lamp too — what a novel idea!Long story short, I ended up on Baseus' site trying to decide whether the rechargeable USB-C desk lamp or the magnetic under cabinet lamp was a better fit for my needs. In the end, the former won, and I'm glad it did, because it turned out to be a lot more versatile than I thought it would be.
