Review: Stylus Pen by MPIO-EU

Today I am reviewing the Stylus Pen by MPIO-EU, which at the time of this post costs £30.99.
I tried it out on the HP Chromebook 14 X360, and the stylus works as expected, and I didn't notice any lag with the device.

One oddity I found was in the manual.


"You can change other drawing apps for trying" is phrased a bit oddly, I think.

I also like that the stylus comes with a pen holder that allows you to stick it to any surface.

I had been using the stylus of the Samsung Note Pro 12.2 and compared to that stylus, the pen is comfortable to grasp.  However, in order to get it to work, you have to hold the pen upright like an ink brush, unlike the stylus found in Samsung tablets.  I find the upright writing style a bit unnatural and uncomfortable.  Also, I tried using it using my Huawei Mate 20 Pro and the pen's large size a bit unwieldy.

Review: iposible Solar Lights Outdoor,

Today I am reviewing the iposible Solar Lights Outdoor, which, at the time of writing, costs £19.99.


The lamp seems quite bright and, according to the listing, charges via solar power.  That means there's no battery to change.  It is also IP65 rating, which means it is "dust tight" and protected against water projected from a nozzle."

One minus though is that it's plastic and not metal, so may not be as sturdy.

I also like the fact that it turns on automatically at dusk, which means you don't have to turn it on every night.  It is also has a motion tracker, which is also a plus.  All in all, a nice nifty product and it does what it says on the tin.
