Logitech Mx Master Review

The Logitech MX Master is Logitech's new "high end" ergo - centric mouse.

The MX Master Is the successor to the popular Performance MX, Logitech's prior high end ergonomic mouse. The MX Master draws upon the great features of the Performance MX and has enhanced them with a new modern twist and fancy industrial design. The Mouse features comfortable ergonomics and satisfyingly tactile buttons. The scroll wheel can be set to scroll in clicky increments or at the push of a button it can be set free if you need to demolish endless documents. The scroll wheel can be click inwards and acts as another  programmable button. Next to the forwards scroll wheel are two well positioned left and right buttons that have an awesome click and actuate with ample pressure. On the side of the mouse their is a horizontal scroll wheel that scrolls freely, however it isn't 'frictionless' like the vertical scroll wheel on top. Behind the horizontal scroll wheel are two programmable buttons which in default, act as the backwards and forwards when browsing the web. Below the side buttons their is another (yes another) programmable button of which is built into the grippy material on the stingray like wing on the side of the mouse. The overall design of the mouse provides a comfortable experience with the exception of the two buttons located behind the horizontal scroll wheel, I have found them to be hard to reach without repositioning my entire hand. Previously I used an apple magic mouse which means the MX master is a welcome addition when using my computer for prolonged times. Currently I use the little dongle provided not the Bluetooth as I had a spare USB spot to fill and it saves messing with Bluetooth settings. The mouse is able to pair with the USB receiver or Bluetooth and can switch between 3 devices at the press of a button located on the bottom of the mouse. The MX Master is also a rechargeable mouse with a non removable battery that is a welcome addition for myself coming from regular batteries that I had to replace a bit too often.
The end verdict is that the mouse is great, despite the price of $114 AUD (express shipped) from PC Case Gear. Over the past week the mouse has performed flawlessly both on my mouse pad and around my desk. If you are a professional dealing with design, photo/video or just simply use your computer a lot I would highly recommend the Logitech MX Master for both PC and Mac users.

DBRAND skin for Macbook Pro Retina

For the past few weeks I have been using my Macbook Pro Retina with a DBRAND skin on it, and to say the least it is one of the best purchases I have made for my Macbook.  

No doubt the macbook pro is beautiful, so why is a skin the right choice for covering up the beautiful aluminium? 

 Well simply put, I feel it is the best option for protecting the macbook from scratches, dirt and grime. No it doesn't protect it from a fall and really neither would a hard shell. 
Hard shells have always caused me to cringe as I have seen to many examples of dirt getting in between the case and the macbook ultimately scratching the aluminium finish to buggery. 

 The DBRAND skin arrived in a reasonable time frame of two weeks which isn't bad for regular shipping from Canada to Australia. The skin was a little bent on arrival but that was no problem as the 3m skin is super high quality and durable. Applying it was a bit tedious as the skin is extremely precise, but following the excellent Instructions everything was a breeze. Air bubbles disappear as the skin has micro pores that allow air to escape and with a little heat from a hair dryer the corners on the bottom panel moulded into place amazingly. I purchased black leather skin which cost around $60 AUD for the top and bottom. 
Personally the black leather looks great on the Macbook Pro but you guys be the judge, their are heaps of other textures and colours also so check out DBRAND at
