Hello readers,

This is Jason, the Reviews Editor of Okay Geek (the site you’re reading right now!), and I have some exciting news to share with all of you. You might have noticed that we haven’t been posting a ton of content on Okay Geek as of late and are wondering what is going on? Well, for the past month or so we’ve been working on an awesome new project called The Hype Review. 

If you frequent the site, you might have noticed that we’ve stopped doing news posts, in favor of reviews. After much thought and input from you guys, we decided that it would be best to focus our efforts on writing reviews and generating original content, stuff that lasts and you can always refer to if you need help deciding whether or not to buy something. And Okay Geek simply wasn’t fit for the task so we started working on The Hype Review.

What is The Hype Review?

The Hype Review is a product reviews site that is dedicated to bringing you honest takes on the freshest and coolest new gear around. Currently, we’ve launched the site as a beta and will be posting all of our new reviews on The Hype Review. Please feel free to provide any feedback you may have but do keep in mind that it is in beta so certain things are broken. 

What will happen to Okay Geek?

Once we launch The Hype Review out of beta, okaygeek.com will redirect to The Hype Review. All of your favorite content from the site will be moved to an archive section on The Hype Review. 

Head on over to The Hype Review (beta) !

Tissot T41.1.483.53 Silver Gents Automatic Watch review

In a world where everything we own is powered by batteries and connected to the Internet, it’s nice to take a step back and enjoy gadgets that just work, without the need for electricity. Today we’ll be taking a look at Tissot’s T41.1.483.53 Silver Gents Automatic Watch, available from the Tic Watches store. What’s so great about it? Full review after the break!

Logitech HD Pro Webcam C920 review

Most laptops these days come with webcams built in. However, integrated webcams typically don’t provide very good image quality, even if they claim to be “HD.” Desktop users, on the other hand, are completely out of luck when it comes to out of the box video chatting. Logitech’s HD Pro Webcam C920 offers a simple and elegant solution for high definition, full 1080p Skyping. But is it worth the $99 price tag? Read on to find out!

OCZ Vertex 4 (FW 1.5) 128GB SSD review

When it comes to SSD’s, OCZ is one of the first companies that comes to mind. With their Agility and Vertex series of SSD’s, the company offers some of the best performing solid state drives combined with relatively affordable prices. Today we take a look at the fourth iteration of the Vertex series; we’ll also be comparing the performance improvements garnered by the version 1.5 firmware update. Read on for all the benchmarking goodness!

Integral UltimaPro SDHC Class 10 32GB memory card review

SD cards are among a phorographer’s most important tools. No matter how many megapixels a camera has or what lens it uses, the speed and capacity of the camera’s memory card are crucial to getting the shots and the amount of shots required. Today we take a look at Integral’s UltimaPro SDHC Class 10 to see if it can perform as the sole memory card in our shooter. Read on for our full review!

Adonit Jot Pro stylus review

Although you might not be able to tell from the image above, Adonit’s Jot Pro isn’t your traditional tablet stylus. It features a plastic disc where a rubber nub would usually be and claims to be the most accurate stylus out there. But is the “Precision Disc” as awesome as they say? Read on to find out!

Brainwavz M4 in-ear headphones review

Brainwavz is a lesser known company that makes a variety of headphones. The M2 headphones we took a look at a while back were not bad but we also didn’t find them to be fantastic either. Will the M4’s change our minds? Read on for our full take on Brainwavz’s new in-ears!
