As requested by the @WhatGearReviews Twitter followers. It's the Oneplus 5T Vs Zenfone4. Unfortunatly the weather here in London is not great so I haven't got round to doing the Camera comparison video yet. However it is on the way. Subscribe and stay tuned for that one coming soon.
The Orbit 4k 360 is definitely a unique device. It's incredibly compact and lightweight. What you are essentially looking at is an action cam with 3 completely different camera views, and all of tvus is housed in an IP6X rated shockproof casing.
Pixpros previous rendition of a 4k 360 camera had just one dome with xed focus lens… the orbit 4k 360 now has 2. However the two lenses are not identical in size. This is the first thing you will notice. There is really good reason for this which I'll explain later.
It's size makes it amazingly portable and lightweight. Which is perfect for extreme sports enthusiasts. With that in mind the extreme pack that you can buy with the device makes it even more versatile. In fact I don't think I've ever seen a product with as many accessories as this. You can check out my Kodak Pixpro 4k 360 VR camera review video to see.
I love the black and white colour scheme on the device & the on board display works really really well. Another cool thing I noticed when I first looked at this device is the mics on both sides. Meaning whatever orientation you have the device in, you will capture good audio from any direction. My first impression is that I really like the design of this.
The on board controls are kept to a minimum with just four buttons. Of course you have the record button which doubles up as a selector button when you're in the menu setting. The power button which is self explanatory...It's simply used to switch it on and off. On the side of the device is two more buttons a wifi button and a mode button. These do what you think they do but they also used to scroll up and down with the menus.
Pairing the device is very easy. First you download the Kodak Pixpro 360 app on your smart device then you connect to it directly via Wi-Fi. Once connected you have so many options to play with. Most importantly you can use your smartphone as a view finder. So if you're planning to use this for #360photography you can frame the perfect picture.
One thing to take note of you can operate this device manually and record in three different video modes in with different resolutions of your choice...but to take pictures you must use the Pixpro 360 app.
The desktop software makes stitching and encoding the videos very easy. The easiest way for me to connect the device to my laptop was over Wi-Fi direct. Once in the desktop software you can preview your footage, join videos together and loads more. I've got a feeling that using a Windows PC maybe easier to use than a Mac when it comes to importing videos. There are other ways to transfer video's. For example if you want to you can take out your micro SD card and plug it in to your computer using an SD card adaptor.
The Pixpro Orbit 360 VR camera has an incredible amount of accessories available. You will not have a problem using it in your car, on your bike, or even underwater. Again if you want to see what it comes with watch this WhatGear Video.
When it comes to picture quality...we really need to talk about each mode individually. And bare in mind you can change the resolutions. But with that said at it's highest settings I would say the wide angled front lens can go toe with the likes of the very best action cams out there. If you'd like to see any side by side reviews just let know. The dome lens camera is fantastic if you're shooting from the ground up. The quality is better than it's ever been on a Pixpro 360 camera. Watch my hands on user guide video and follow the links to see the footage.
There are a crazy amount resolutions and file sizes you can use on the Orbit360 4k. There are 7 different modes you can use for photography and 12 video modes, two of which are Hi Speed movies which are ideal for action scenes. To see photos taken on the Kodak Pixpro 4k Vr 360 camera follow me on Facebook, Instagram & Twitter.
I am a huge fan of Orbit4KVR camera. I love it's futuristic design. It's ease of use makes it user friendly for any user. As this device has the potential to film in front and behind, this could be the very best action camera to use if you're a cyclist or if you ride a motorbike. With all its different modes you can be as creative as you like switching between the three modes and playing around with footage using the desktop software. The little planet mode is also really awesome to play around with.
Did I mention the Orbit 4K 360 camera has the ability to live stream 360 video directly to YouTube or Facebook. With live streaming becoming more and more popular these days this device could give you an edge in a crowded space.
I've really enjoyed my time with the Kodak Pixpro and I would highly recommend it if you want maybe the most versatile action camera currently on the market.

The Thinkware F800 Pro just might be one of the very best dash cams on the market. It has voice cues that alert you to speed cameras. You can connect to it from your smartphone so you can view & manage your recordings, as well as customise your settings. The F800 Pro has phenomenal low light capabilities with its Sony Exmor sensor. The image stabilisation is nothing short of impressive. I would highly recommend this gadget!

So are you looking for the Sony equivalent of a Bose SoundLink mini or the UE boom. Well then this #WhatGear review is probably what you're looking for. Well I know what your thinking... Wow look at this bold statement on the box extra bass... And wouldn't want that? Is this better than the competition?
The XB30 retails at around £130 at the time of this video. The aforementioned Bose SoundLink mini 2 retails at £170 and UE boom 2 also around £170. That's a £40 saving from the off but is less more? Or is the Sony SRS-XB30 more or less the same in terms of sound quality and features?
So the Sony XB30 offers up 24 hrs playback. The Bose only offers 10hrs and the UE boom 2 15 hrs. Putting the Sony on top. The layout of the speakers resemble that of the Bose. Only the Sony has 48mm drivers the Bose has 51mm drivers, and UE has 45mm drivers. So the Sony land somewhere in the middle here. Although the Sony has a pretty large passive radiator at it's center just like the Bose. This gives it the edge over the UE Boom 2.
In terms of styling the Sony has some really visible differences to the others we mentioned. Of course I'm talking about the light display. You can customize the light patterns. Although Sony do limit the customsation of these to the presets which are available via the SongPal app. My JBL pulse 3 however offers completely customisable colours using the JBL connect app with the use of your phones camera. I think is an amazing feature that Sony have not done yet. Saying that XB30 leaves the UE boom 2 & Soundlink mini 2 in the dark because have ...well nothing.
So let's look at the on board controls here. This button in the middle allows you to pair the device with another Sony speaker for stereo separation & you can even pair up to 10 of these. Which is not bad, although... I recently witnessed JBL break a world record for syncing a 1000 pulse 3's together from one source, but let's be honest 10 speakers is more than enough for most people. The UE boom 2 can do up to 8 and the Bose Soundlink mini 2 can't do any at all.
So some more features. If you hold your finger on the phone icon button it'll tell you how much power you have left. Remember you cant listen to music unless you have power.
This same button can answer your calls and you can use XB30 as a speaker phone. Pushing this button with a short press will also open up siri or Google Assistant a smart feature I must say. So that's one button that does three things. Of course as you would expect you have a play pause, vol up and down and power button and a Bluetooth led light.
A really nice feature you can see here is the standard issue Sony NFC...that always reminds me of coffee for some reason. Tap your nfc capable device on the top for instant syncing. This is a feature that Bose does not offer, but the UE boom 2 does.
This speaker is water resistant with an IPX5 rating. To help with this it has this rubberised cover to protect the ports at the back. Underneath it has a power input which utilises a Sony propriatory charger. A USB C would have been nice. Also it has a 3.5mm input for audio jacks, if you're old school like that & a USB output. You can use this USB port to charge you phone because your phone won't work unless you have power. So if you're out with mates and somebody's battery dies you can be like "I have the power".
Talking about power...who doesn't want extra bass. This dedicated button gives you that option. So can listen to some really bassy tunes and practice some of best Drake dance moves, and when your hot line blings that can only mean one thing...pick up your phone
So last little important feature here the SRS XB30 uses Bluetooth 4.2 . Which basically means means that you can pair 3 devices simultaneously. You can also use Sony's very own Ldac feature. However I'm still not sure but LDac might also be a Kling on swear word. What LDAC means here in relation to the XB30 is that by using LDAC you can transmit 3 times more data than regular bluetooth streaming methods. Basically making your music sound better as long as you're using a good source. For example Hi Res audio files in Tidal.
The Bluetooth 4.2 also gives the Sony good range between your device and the speaker. Sony boast up to 10 meters, the Bose Soundlink mini 2 can do 9m but UE claim the boom 2 can do up to 33m. So again Sony land somewhere in the middle.
So having heard all three of these. The Sony blows the UE out of the water for sound quality, but the UE boom is better with water because it's IPX7 waterproof and it has more range over bluetooth. The XB30 competes very well against the Bose Soundlink 2 soundwise but it edges the Bose out with battery life and and its Bluetooth features.
So bearing in mind all the differences that we've talked about in this video... do I think this is a good sound investment? Well yes it is... Plus it's got extra bass...and who doesn't want that?

This is a very unique gadget but who is this for? Well allow me to explain... This second iPhone screen is primarily for those of you enjoy reading. I heard they say readers are leaders & up until this point the leaders in the e ink e reader market has to be the Amazon Kindle but there's has been an Awakening.
Oaxis have devised a gadget that doubles up as protective phone case and an e reader on back of your iPhone.
It holds it's on charge so even when you're out of power on your handset you can read on. It also has it's own on board interface and button controls which work independently from your phone.
Now what really makes this great is the fact that it uses e ink. The only time the Oaxis ink case consumes power is when it changes it's display or when your transfer images of text to it over Bluetooth. Which means it's battery can last up to...
It does bulk up the phone a little bit but you gotta way up the pros and cons. I think of you are a reader the pros way out weigh the cons. So some of the great uses for this 2nd screen is it's ability to rip books or text straight from your device and store them locally on the Oaxis. Maybe you could store important contact information or directions just in case your phone dies and you need to find your way.

So if you follow the WhatGear reviews YouTube channel you will know that I was at the EXCLUSIVE press launch of the Jaguar E Pace. Also if you have ever played any flight simulator or arcade games EVER. You will know the only way to dodge a heatseeking missile is to perform a barrel roll. Well with that in mind, do think the Jaguar E Pace can dodge a missile? The answer is yes it can! So next time you're the victim some extreme road rage you know what to do.
Anyway grab yourself a Google Cardboard or maybe a Merge VR headset, kick back relax and take a look around and see how it all went down... Quite literally you can look around it's a 360 Video.
The New Jaguar E-PACE has set an official GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title during its world premiere in London. Leaping into the record books, Jaguar's compact performance SUV achieved an epic 15.3 metre-long jump, complete with a 270-degree corkscrew-like 'barrel roll'. Behind the wheel was legendary British stunt driver Terry Grant.
So I hope you guys enjoyed the video. Hopefully I will get hands on with one of these awesome vehicles at some point. If I do... It'll be another world's first for WhatGear reviews! You will get a unique look at the integrated tech inside the E Pace & maybe a closer look at the cup holders ;) I also hear Jaguar have created a smartwatch for this vehicle. Just like that one seen in Knightrider. Which I'm really interested in checking out. The question is, is the Jaguar E Pace one of the finest SUV's known to man? Hopefully we will see. Stay tuned and subscribe to WhatGear on YouTube.
