Ooma is a brand I’m rather familiar with, as I installed their VOIP system many years ago. While the Telo box is an upfront cost, it quickly pays for itself, and it’s extensible with things like handsets and bluetooth modules to have your cell phone tie into the box. I can’t speak to those, but I can praise the Telo box and their service. Today, for Cyber Monday, you can save 50% on the Ooma Telo, now just $69.99 for today. ooma.com

If one screen is good, are two better? The Castaway phone case thinks so
When it comes to desktop computing, multiple screens is advantageous (unless you prefer just one massive screen). With our phones, though, we’re constrained to just a single screen (unless you screencast or something, but that’s just mirroring). What if you could have a second screen built into your phone case? The Castaway is offering just that – turning your phone into a Samsung Fold clone – but without the breaking screen.

Getting charged up with the Mophie Juice Pack Air
Over the past few months, I’ve written about a number of iPhone cases, as well as the process of replacing the battery in my own iPhone (you can read that here). Well, what about if you just need extra battery, even with a fresh internal one? That’s where battery cases come in. There are some very clever ones with the newer phones that support wireless charging, for sure. For those of us rocking older (but still very functional) phones, cases like the Mophie Juice Pack Air are where it’s at.

Waterfield Designs has some different case designs ready for your iPhone 11
In the midst of the veritable firehose we had when the iPhone 11 was announced, the new releases from Waterfield escaped my attention. At least, for a few weeks. They bubbled back up, and they’ve got some options that will appeal to those who really don’t go for the standard form-fit cases.

Simplifying things with the Mudita Pure Phone
Being as we’re a tech news and reviews site – and you’re reading it – it’s safe to say that we’re all fans of mobile phones in some capacity. Once upon a time, they were utilitarian, but now they can be so many things – our camera, our jukebox, and our game system, just to name a few. But with all of that usefulness can come distractions. “Oh, I’ll just check my mail” and next thing you know, you went down some social media rabbit hole. But we need to remain connected to our loved ones, our friends, our co-workers. So, what’s the solution? Well, the new Mudita Pure Phone may just be the answer.

Extra protection comes via the Invisible Shield Glass+ VisionGuard
Along with protective cases for your phone, you likely want to think about some sort of tempered glass protective layer for your screen. Gone are the days of plastic screens (that you could protect with a plastic film) – glass is where it’s at. And glass can, well, shatter. Why not have a layer of tempered glass on top that will crack before your expensive display does? This is precisely what Invisible Shield offers in their lineup, and I recently tested out their Glass+ Vision Guard.

The Urban Armor Gear Monarch Series Case will wrap your phone in a cocoon
With the launch of the iPhone 11, we saw a flood of new cases being announced, and we covered some of the more interesting ones. While the iPhone 11 isn’t in hands yet, many have previous generation phones. And, presumably, the lineup shouldn’t change much (other than dimensions and cutouts) model to model. So, with that mindset, we were able to have an Urban Armor Gear Monarch case sent over for review.

Teracube is offering up an unheard-of 4 year warranty on their phones
I know, I know, we’ve been very heavy on phones as of late, between all of the iPhone coverage, and some other Android-related things. However, it just feels like there’s a lot of energy in that segment of the tech world, and I’m going to keep covering the stuff I find interesting. One of the latest I ran across over on Kickstarter is the Teracube.

More iPhone 11 cases? Yes, more iPhone 11 cases!

Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the digital waters… I kid, of course, but there are just a ton of new cases and accessories coming out to support this one gadget (aka, the iPhone 11). As we come across the cooler and interesting ones, we’ll be bringing them to your attention. Today, we want to cover off on what CaseMate and Smartish have on tap.
