The around-the-neck outline of LG's Tone Ultra Bluetooth headphones isn't for everybody, except a safe fit, strong sound execution and a sensible value $119.99 make it worth looking at.

This simple pleasure has been presented through numerous venues: live…

Instantly, I became the fool of the group as everyone laughed at the pathetic shape of the iPhone, pointing and jeering at my…

Product adoption is the process by which a consumer or business begins to buy and use a new good, service, or idea.
