I'm the guy behind Let's Talk Tech and a travel blog called Fab Meets World. Some people call me a geek, I think they're probably right. I'm fascinated by technology and innovation, love good design and own way too many gadgets for my own good. Want to connect? Get in touch on Twitter and Instagram.
Smartphones have come a hell of a long way since the days of my Nokia 3210. (Damn that seems a long time ago…) Where playing Snake was my sole source of entertainment back then, smartphones nowadays can do almost anything — from taking impressive photos and handling awesome games, to playing our favourite TV series.

I wasn’t going to buy the Apple Watch at first. It felt like a silly thing to splash out £300 for a 1st generation product that I knew would have some teething issues.

With a library of nearly 20,000 photos & videos (near enough 50GB worth of files), it’s incredibly important that I have regular backups of all those memories. Most of those photos are stored on iCloud, but I also use Google Photos and OneDrive as secondary backups, just in case. The thing is, these are all…

I rely heavily on my web browser to help me get serious work done, so it needs to perform well, offer plenty of functionality (extensions & plugins) and most importantly: it can’t negatively affect battery life. As the guys at BatteryBox found out, the browser you use could have a detrimental effect on your MacBook’s battery life,…
TouchID is one of my favourite features on the iPhone 6; it’s such an easy, reliable and fast way to unlock your device. What many people don’t know is that you can actually use more than one finger/thumb to unlock your iPhone or iPad. Want to unlock your other hand? Here’s how you can do it.…
So if you’re following me on Instagram, you’ll know that I recently got sent out to Dublin by Acer! You can read more about the experience here, but they essentially wanted us to complete a few challenges and spend some time with their tech. One of those challenges was to record an unboxing of the…
Acer recently took me and a bunch of other UK bloggers to Dublin as part of a live blogging trip. Not only was it an opportunity for us to play with some of their devices, but we also had to complete a number of challenges around the city. Here’s a short video I made about the trip: Cooks…
