We can't start the new year without first taking a quick look back at the 2014 posts that were most popular of the year. If you're interested in what caught the attention of our readers for the past 12 months, here are the top ten of the…
We're so excited to start sharing our Editors Tech Picks of 2014, all week long. Starting with those cool tech accessories we're all coveting around here. Because as much as we love (as in, love ) our tech gadgets, we might just be more …
The men in my life don't always see smartphone cases the same way we do -- as accessories that can be updated with the season, or even just on a whim. But since we're all pretty equally impressed with the attractive designs of the i Phon…
We've shared our favorite cool tech toys and gifts for younger kids, tech toys for big kids , and cool tech gifts for guys under $50 . Now our Holiday Tech Gift guide series continues with these stylish tech gifts for women. Can we have …
We're so pleased to share our annual Holiday Tech Gift guide with you all, starting with one of the categories you all ask us for the most: The coolest Tech gifts for guys under $50. Of course we'd like plenty of them too--coolness often…
I have become a total battery power junkie, never leaving home without at least two portable chargers. Well, that's including my charging case, to be fair. Partly it's the dreaded iPhone battery drain that I've experienced more than I'd …
The minute I slipped the SurfacePad from our innovative friends at the small company Twelve South onto my iPhone 6, it practically winked at me. All of sudden my trusty phone was not only smart, but now it was fancy, too. Well, fancier .…
We have covered tons of gorgeous mobile phone and tablet cases on Cool Mom Tech over the years, many of which I covet. But I'm really in love with pretty much every leather gadget case on the Looptworks site, not only because they're bea…
Whichever case you're currently using to cover your smart phone--even one you bought yesterday--well, I think you might just need a new one. (Sorry about that.) Because I just found Getincased , a premium custom case and accessories comp…
We have covered hundreds, if not millions (Okay, probably not millions) of mobile phone cases over the years, and loads of mobile phone chargers too. But this super cool Indiegogo project I just learned about named Juse is the first sola…
I have a little thing for pop culture icons but I tend to reserve actual photos on my smart phone case for pictures of my kids. That's why the cool smart phone cases from Simple People on Casetify I just discovered are perfect, even for …
Maybe it's the start of the holiday toy pitches that are starting to pop into my inbox, or maybe it's just nostalgia for the toys of my own childhood for no good reason, but I've been entranced with the retro toy iPhone cases I've been s…
The first thing I said after carefully freeing my new iPhone 6 out of its white box was: I'm going to need a case for this. Moving up from a 4s, I'm still getting used to this larger version. Making things slightly trickier is the slippe…
A long time ago, on an iPhone far, far away... It is a time for playing after school. Rebel children fight with sticks, making whomp-whomp noises. One child swears she's Darth Vader, the other claims to be a farm boy who wants more blue …
We're always thrilled to find American-made tech products, many of which we've stocked in our Cool Mom Picks indie shop at Great.ly . In honor of Labor Day, we've rounded-up some of our favorites, whether you're looking to add a little s…
Usually the new cell phone cases that I find fall into two categories-- super stylish or super protective . I'm not exactly sure where that puts my new Loopy Case , which was invented to make it easier for you to hold your phone. But hon…
These days, I feel like my phone is as much an accessory as my earrings or bracelets I mean, I have the thing with me All. The. Time. And I hate to admit it (please don't fire me, Cool Mom Tech editors!) but I still use a cheap plastic c…
From what we're hearing from our readers, more of your kids are heading back to school with gadgets in hand. While we'd always recommend a case like an Otterbox for pure protection, my kids also have my old iPhone hanging around the hous…
I do not play Candy Crush. Hear that, Facebook friends who keep sending me invites? Not going to happen. But that doesn't mean I'm against playing games on smartphones. In fact, just last week I was playing something fun on my husband's …
I am one of those people who runs to my closet, dragging out every single piece of linen the second Memorial Day hits. Then when labor day comes, I don't exactly stash it all in the back of the closet, but keep wearing it and hoping the …
It's been a big week for Otterbox around here. First they wow us with their new Agility series of iPad cases and accessories, and now they add to their Otterbox Symmetry Series high-style cases with a new design from Nina Garcia who is p…
With my kids finally out of diapers and off of sippy cups (hooray), that means a smaller bag for me, or in some cases no bag at all. That's why I'm a huge fan of the smartphone wristlet, and in particular, the Fossil Sydney zip phone wal…
I am always impressed, a little fascinated, and sometimes scared by some of the DIY tech projects that we are increasingly seeing around the web. I dentifying your phone charger with washi tape ? Good! Turning a used remote control into …
I'm not generally one for festive, holiday-themed cell phone accessories that seem out of date the second that holiday is over, but this American flag iPhone case is subtle enough for me. In fact I could wear it (or my phone could) with …
