iPad stands are like iPhone cases – a dime a dozen. There are good ones, “ok” ones and “don’t even bother” ones. CoolerMaster’s Cube stand looks to cater to the former. But visual appeal is but one small piece of the puzzle. Does the Cube actually work? Design & Construction True to CoolerMaster’s recent iPad specific accessories, aluminum is used heavily again. It makes for a nice and sturdy (but not too heavy) stand that...
The Nexus 4 is still the top of the heap as far as “pure” Android handsets go. It’s the only place you’ll find an unadulterated Android experience free from carrier and manufacturer bloat. It also helps that the hardware is plenty powerful for pretty much anything the modern smartphone enthusiast can throw at it with some nice lines (design wise) to boot.

That said, even with the Z10 (and soon Q10) on the market, there’s still a huge uphill battle before we can call their comeback a success. The Z10 is BlackBerry’s Hail Mary and last chance effort at keeping the lights on up in Canada. The importance of the Z10 and BB 10 cannot be understated. If RIM Fails here, they fail outright and...
Back in August we were given the chance to check out an iPad Smart Cover accessory - The Smarter Stand For Smart Cover – that quite honestly should have been considered by Apple during the conception of the Smart Cover. We really enjoyed using the Smarter Stand, it gave us the ability to use our iPad at multiple different angles that we didn’t have the option to at first.
