Review: The Ikarao Shell S1 Is Almost the Perfect Portable Karaoke Speaker

22 hours ago | lifehacker.com | Daniel Oropeza

My first impressions of the Shell S1 karaoke speaker A closed Shell S1 speaker Credit: Daniel Oropeza My expectations were somewhat low for this speaker, mainly because I had never heard of Ikarao. My preconceived notions were misplaced: Turns out the Shell S1 is a portable powerhouse that gives you everything you need for a great karaoke session. It's easy to pick up and take with you to a friend's house or outdoor gathering. I was blown away by how loud this speaker can get—104 dB, to be exact.

Review: The Vitamix Explorian E310 Blender Gives You Best-in-Class Power (at a Fraction of the Price)

1 day ago | lifehacker.com | Allie Chanthorn Reinmann

Vitamix versus the competitionPersonally, I've never been a huge blender user. That's primarily because most blenders I've used (let's be honest, they're the brands that run under $100) don't do anything my immersion blender can't do. But after testing some Vitamix models, I can actually see myself becoming a blender person.

Review: The MSI Prestige 13 AI+ Evo Is Designed for a Future That Hasn't Arrived Yet

5 days ago | lifehacker.com | Alan Bradley

First impressionsMy first thought lifting the Prestige 13 out of its box was “Wow, this thing is tiny.” At 11.77 x 8.27 x 0.67 inches, it’s a smidge thicker but less wide and deep than the 13-inch MacBook Air. It’s also feather light at 2.18 pounds, noticeably lighter than the Air’s 2.7 pounds. It’s so light, in fact, that if you tucked it into a chunky backpack, you may not remember if you packed it or not. Even the charger is petite.
Review: The Pump X Fitness Headphones Handle Sweat Like a Champ

5 days ago | lifehacker.com | Meredith Dietz

Design and qualityThe Pump X headphones look sleek enough that I don't feel like I'm wearing obvious "gym gear" when commuting with them. The matte finish with subtle "X" branding feels premium, and I particularly appreciate the sweat-wicking material on the headband that actually keeps my head dry—a rarity in the over-ear fitness headphone market. These feel substantially built, with hinges that seem like they'll last through being tossed in gym bags daily.
