Monzo It’s time for a new kind of bank – Arrived today!!!

12th September 201718th September 2017 Techun.Limited

So on the weekend I was lucky enough (might not be as exclusive as it once was but I felt special) to be invited to sign up to get my hands on a Monzo Account/Card/App/Thing so I though I could give it a try. After a chat with a friend/colleague last week about his use of the account while on his holiday, with its ability to top up (as its pay-as-you-go at the mo, ZERO fees abroad, block the card, instant transfers, change the pin, turn magnetic strip on for…

GL-MT300A – GL.iNet using Private Internet Access: Anonymous VPN Service

3rd September 20176th September 2017 Techun.Limited

I’ve always been one to subscribe to the train of though that if you have nothing to hide, your have nothing to fear. I also accept that bad people will abuse the freedom and free speech we have created to harm others BUT that is not a Green light to spy on everyone verbatim. Taking it down a level from abusing freedom to harm others to Corporate abuse of this power online, how many times have you searched something, then logged off (how can we really log off any more)…

Orzly FlexiCase for OnePlus 5 – CLEARly a good case

15th August 201722nd August 2017 Techun.Limited

So to protect my OnePlus5 from drops by case of choice are usual Gel (TPU) or bumper. I decided on the Orzly FlexiCase for OnePlus 5 as this was a sure fire way of making sure it would fit the phone WITH a glass screen protector on. Well the good news is it fits (shame about the screen protector but you can read about this over here) with a screen protector fitted. The case feels like it should protect the phone from most bumps to the corner but for users…

Orzly Pro-Fit Glass Screen Protector OnePlus 5 – Pain In The Glass

15th August 201715th August 2017 Techun.Limited

Its been a while and it was about time I posted some more. When I purchased my OnePlus 5 a month ago I order the Orzly Pro-Fit Glass Screen Protector and Orzly FlexiCase from amazon. Ive had their products before on my OnePlus 2 and they have been a good balance between price and performance….times have changed and not all for the better. So the office OnePlus Glass Screen Protector retails on their site for £17.95 which at first seems quite steep when the average branded glass protectors comes in…

LG Urbane 2nd Smart Watch Gets Wear 2.0 – NFC see :)

7th July 20177th July 2017 Techun.Limited

When I originally posted about the LG Urbane 2nd one of the main reasons for choosing it was the promise of Wear 2.0 and NFC. I read a few posts from users who were mentioning NFC and contactless payments would not be coming. That coupled with the lack of news or time lines about Wear 2.0 for the LG I was starting to wonder if this was a bit of a turkey (think BB playbook). The watch with Wear 1.5 is still good, I am impressed with its usefulness with…

oneplus 5 – flagship killer erm sort of

6th July 20176th July 2017 Techun.Limited

So my Oneplus 5 arrive a few days back, I was flying back from Italy and by chance our flight was delayed an hour and arrive back to the UK at 11:55 PM, I tuned my phone on and was greeted with a tweet say “remember to set your alarms for 12 midnight” …. online shopping is too easy in this day and age, by the time I’d walked from the plane to security I had bagged myself a Midnight Black oneplus 5 8GB RAM 128GB phone for £499. A…

V tothe P tothe N – GL-MT300A from GL.inet

7th June 201719th June 2017 Techun.Limited

Being a huge fan of all things small and configurable (think Raspberry Pi, Arduino) I found myself in the market for a VPN service, the internet can be a bad place after all and thats just starting with your broadband provider :P. I had played with DD-wrt in the past and knew I had an TP-link old router that would have been able to be used to create a separate network (wireless and wired) but this was quite old and I figured there should be something to fit the bill,…

LG Urbane 2 for £160..WOW!

30th May 201711th June 2017 Techun.Limited

So…….Smart watches have been around for some time now (sorry) and love them or hate them if Apple and a few other companies have their way we will have some form of one over the coming years. From e-ink pebbles, hybrid analog with smart features to full on Apple watches, selection and price is giving consumers more choice. So I toyed with the idea of a pebble and with the advent of the pebble HR 2 I decided to wait, as with most of my waiting games they went under…
