LEGO Nexus Minimal Stand

I know people have done LEGO stands for almost every phone possible but I thought I'd just share my very simple and minimalistic stand.
It works in both portrait and landscape and has the potential to be made into a dock with the right tools (such as THIS or a POGO pin setup)
Here are all the pieces you need to duplicate my stand:

}
Here are the steps:
Finished product:
The extra length of the pieces extending to the back of the stand are required because in portrait mode, the phone's weight is a bit too much if shorter pieces are used instead, the extra length provides stability. The shorter white piece in the front provides a slightly higher lip to easily put the phone in portrait mode and provides the required stop in landscape.
Thanks for reading, hope you enjoy.

wow, never thought of using legos. Great stand!

This is a good idea to not pay 80€ for the dock XD

Well done!! I might have to run down to Toys R Us today

This is clever...thanks for sharing!
I guess there was an upside to keeping my giant boxes of Lego around.

you can make it taller and incorporate the usb cable to make it a true dock!

I can never find just regular legos to buy LOL. Walmart for example only has the pirate kits and junk. Where do you buy regular legos? I guess I'll check Amazon.

Ahhh too clever! Too bad I don't have any Lego pieces lying around (anymore).

i added a few more to heighten the back of the support. Now it can hold my N7 also

Arkon stand for Note 2

I remember someone was looking for a Note 2 portable stand. I just got this one for my Nexus 7, but it works great for Note 2 as well in both landscape and portrait modes. VERY sturdy design, and folds nicely into a compact stick. High quality construction, lightweight, and will work for any large phone and tablets from 7" to 10"+.
http://www.arkon.com/tablet-accessories/tablet-stand.html - and you can actually get it at Amazon for $8 plus change where it has over 1k reviews with an average 4.75 rating.

I was just getting stands for my kids tablets, and went to order more Arkons stands from my above review. Been using those for Note 2, Nexus 7, and noticed my wife using it for cook books. These holding up really well since March and took a lot of kids abuse. Its on amazon for $7.15, great deal I thought to share with you guys.

I can back this up. I have one of these and although it isn't the smallest, it's fantastic. very stable and adjustable for a wide range of sizes and positions. I have had it for over a year and travel daily with it. I'm not gentile but not abusive. It's well worth the money IMO.

Nift idea. Have one for my tablet but never thought about using it for my note ii.

Btw, as a warning. Make sure when you shop on Amazon you check who is the actual seller. It gets so confusing with different choices. Apparently there are counterfeit Arkon stands sold under the main listing from other suppliers (especially from sellers in China). Those come in a white box with some graphics on it. These knock offs are of a poor quality. The real Arkon product will come in a clear package. I didn't even realize that until start reading some of the comments on Amazon and contacted Arkon with a question. That's how I learned about knock offs

Review: Pacuwi Bluetooth Earphones w/ pictures

This is a review of a pair of bluetooth earphones from Pacuwi - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018FN925M (Coupon: PAZPHSYF)
In the past I've reviewed many different bluetooth earphones in many different price ranges, such as the Axigio Sprint to MPow Swift. Recently a company named Pacuwi reached out to me and asked if I wanted to have a look at one of their affordable offerings in the bluetooth earphone market. Let's have a look at the actual product, shall we?
So first of all, when it comes to the actual packaging of the product I'm rather pleased to say the least, as the packaging itself offer a nice unboxing experience and it's made out of a kind cardboard that looks really nice. One of thing the packaging lacks is information about the product, but other than that it's very nice. Inside of the packaging there's a manual, a USB-cable, carrying bag for the earphones and the earphones themselves.
The earphones themselves are made out of kind of glossy plastic and can be ordered in multiple different colours, but it doesn't look or feel very premium. At the side of one of the earphones there's a MicroUSB cable, and also there's a multifunction button and volume buttons on them. The earphones connect to eachother with a cable that you put behind your neck, which works really nicely I must say. So when it comes to the audio quality, they sound better than I expected when I first removed them from the packaging. They have nice audio quality in general, but the bass is a bit too strong for my taste and there's a bit of a lack of details - which is very common on sub <$30 earphones and I can't really complain. The audio is free from noise that are often seen in cheaper earphones, and these really exceeded my expectations.
So conclusion; these earphones are very good if you're on a budget and I really like them due to the low price, and the fact that they bring lots of features to the table. They're also one of the cheapest pair of bluetooth earphones on the market, which makes these an ideal choice if you're on a budget.
Note that the item was provided to me in exchange of my review, but that doesn't affect my review whatsoever.

I am always horrified when it comes to water and phones; the two should never mingle. At the beach one day, I noticed the clear aqua blue water for miles and wanted to capture this breath-taking view from in the water under but I know I would need an expensive underwater camera to do so. I order this product specifically because of the overwhelming response of positive reviews. My experience yet so far this week has been nothing short of awesome. This is perfect for taking pictures underwater, while snorkeling. I was worried that having the screen would mess up the responsiveness of the touch screen but there were no issues at all. I'm just happy I don't have to bring a separate waterproof camera. Great buy!
Materials: High quality construction, everything feels very durable and has a nice weight without feeling cheap or heavy. I was also happy that there was no strong or strange smell on the product as many of the newer things I buy end up needing to be aired out.
Pro's
- I've submerged my phone in the bathroom sink for a few minutes taking pictures and shooting videos.
- I've showered with it and yet to see a single drop of water inside the case when the iPhone was removed.
- The touch screen in the front and the camera in the back were all accessible while in the case.
Con's
- The only thing i wish it had was access to the top and side buttons. They can still be pressed so it doesn't really bother me much.
- It would be great if it came in a completely clear plastic, to allow for more visual support.
I also have found a deal for this waterproof case at http://deals.kinja.com/, now the price is only 6,99 $ with code: NZG26DKJ
Details: http://www.amazon.com/Universal-Waterproof-Case-Motorola-diagonal/dp/B01CSH93UK/

I had intended to buy a waterproof case JOTO, but when i see this post,i change my mind. A waterproof case Turata at 6.99USD and 7.99USD for JOJO, there is no big difference in terms of functionality. So why not choose one more cheaper. @Glaxaymixc, thanks for sharing this good deals.

Yeah, of course. so i choosed the cheaper one, but it is also very good.

4K Action Camera Wifi WiMiUS L3 2.45'' LCD Touch Screen review

There is a lot to like about the WiMius L3 16MP 4K Action Cam as it's undoubtedly a worthy competitor to the GoPro at a sharp fraction of the price. It's simply amazing what they were able to do in such a tight package. It does 4k video , 60fps 1080p video, has a webcam mode which would be used on youtube if necessary, comes with a variety of different accessories like the go pro which includes the signature case and many many other cool things as well. I use a program called Bandicam I was surprised to see this camera be used like a webcam it's truly a beautiful sight. Of course, it can be used as an action cam as well if needed. Another cool feature is the touch screen 2.4 inch display. When I saw the Lack of buttons on the product I was concerned at first by then by accident I tapped the screen and to my surprise the screen listened to my command. Of all the action camera's I have had this is by far the best Ui I have ever seen. It's simple and too the point and I love it.

It's not perfect by any means however and I will mention why now. First the fps on 4k mode and frame stability does look like it could need some optimizations it's not the best but by no means. However that does not mean it's a deal breaker. Also, the microphone could use a boost in quality, however, I used this thing as a webcam and just used my own microphone so this was not an issue anyway. Back to some more cool stuff the waterproof elementorse to work well when the case Is so that you let stream to i sink to in my sink and it it is to work fine. This product also has wifi feature that works with android and ios thanks to an app called WiMius Cam Pro. This app allows you to stream what your recording to your phone for Easy sharing and viewing. Also, do not let me us with a spear battery which is amazing. I was able to record all the footage I needed in a day without any issue with power and that's huge !! I gotta be Honest I'm speechless here it truly does it all and I can not believe it.
About the price, the camera is $119.99 at Amazon US. However, with the following code, you can get it for only $77.99.
