What would 2015 be without music? Music, at least for me, is the driving force behind our days, nights, and, most importantly, our weekends! What better way to start the new year than with a fresh new pair of Urbanears headphones to make your music listening experience not only more personal but also more fun!
We have some fresh new colors in fresh new packaging for all of our Plattan, Medis, and Bagis headphones by Urbanears. We have a wide variety of sizes for any shaped ear out there. And, let me tell you, the price is WORTH IT! With our Medis brands selling for $49.99, you are getting earbuds that are formed to fit the contours of the natural human ear with, what customers are saying, the most comfortable and best sounding earbuds on the market.
I know you are all worried about whether or not your earbuds can answer phone calls directly from the headphones themselves. Well worry no more! All urban ears products come with a microphone built in so that you can easily switch from listening to your music to answering a phone call with just the push of a button.
So stop on by Small Dog Electronics and jam out in the new year with your sleek new pair of Urbanears headphones!
Ever want to use your iPad as a secondary display for your Mac? Now you can using “Duet.”:https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/duet-display/id935754064?mt=8&at=11lb7k Duet allows you to mirror your iOS device or use it as an extended display! Download it from the App Store, install it on both your Mac (or PC) and your iOS device, and connect the two via USB and you are ready to go. Once linked you can use the touch screen as your mouse and use your iOS device as a secondary display for your Mac or PC!!
When running Duet, I was impressed in how smoothly it operated. I noticed no lag and with the ability to adjust frame rate and resolution, the result is a fairly seamless integration. One nice feature is the automatic adjustment in resolution whether in landscape or portrait view. You can switch the FPS (frames per second) between 60fps and 30fps. However, I noticed it ran perfectly at 60fps. Movies synchronize perfectly with the audio which is very cool.
I am discovering that there are tons of apps out there that have similar functionality including “iDisplay.”:https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id363500805?mt=8&at=11lb7k This app allows you to use your iOS device as a display wirelessly, however, both the computer and device need to be connected to the same Wi-Fi network. This can be beneficial for some applications but for those looking to keep their displays confidential and secure, Duet is certainly safer as it is wired and therefore is more secure and you don’t have to depend on a consistent signal.
All in all, Duet is great app and is definitely worth checking out!
We hope all of you had a great holiday season with your family and friends.
The new year is here and with the holidays behind us we have been drooling over the cool and exciting products everyone received for Christmas…especially the new Apple product lineup including iPad Air 2, iMac 27in with 5K, and lots of awesome accessories. I am starting to feel the itch and it might be time to treat myself. Have you had the same feeling? If so we have you covered with some awesome deals going on like 6-18 month 0% interest financing which makes taking care of everyone in the family (cough…yourself…cough, cough) so much easier.
With Apple having so many new product releases it makes it very enticing to upgrade. Well here at Small Dog, we can help with that. Whether you want to upgrade your iPad or just want that new MacBook Pro with Retina Display that is just amazing, to say the least, then bring in your current model to any of “our locations”:http://www.smalldog.com/retail/visit-us-in-store-at-any-of-our-locations and see what yours is worth today. “Out with the old… in with the new!”:http://www.smalldog.com/tradein/small-dog-trade-in-program

I am off to Las Vegas for the big Consumer Electronics Show so Rachel may have to twist Emily or Hapy’s arm to do some writing for next week’s Kibbles & Bytes. It has always been tricky getting out of Vermont for CES due to the unpredictable weather but this year I will be flying from Key West so chances are I won’t be spending a lot of extra time in the Detroit airport as I have done in the past.
All of us at Small Dog Electronics send our wishes to you for a safe and prosperous New Year! Make it green in 2015, don’t be mean in 2015 and other slogans…
Thank you for reading this issue of Kibbles & Bytes!

Raised rubber ridges add easy grip for the perfect hold and a no-slip grip, while also preventing your phone from sliding across tables or dashboards.
The all-new Olloclip has been completely redesigned for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus with 4 advanced-optic lenses. The pocket-sized, patented design now works on both front and rear-facing cameras so you can let your photos and selfies run wild. Plus, it comes with 3 wearable pendants because the best camera is the one that’s always with you.
A few extra chargers could have been very handy this holiday season at my house. Having everyone home with the numerous electronics they schlep around made a charging cable as popular as Mom’s homemade eggnog. This week’s Kibbles & Bytes exclusive features the Hammerhead 4-port 15 watt USB charger and Hammerhead 2-port 17 watt car charger bundled with an Apple 1 meter Lightning to USB cable for only $39.99. This bundle is normally $65!
You may have received an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch for the holidays. These devices all come with a 1-year warranty and 90 days of free phone support from Apple. AppleCare+ is more than an extended warranty and it would be a good New Year’s gift to yourself. AppleCare+ extends the 1-year Apple warranty to 2 years but the protection does not stop there. You also receive 2 years of free technical support which includes answers to your questions on Apple software including iOS, iCloud, wireless network setup and Apple-branded Apps.
AppleCare+ adds one more important feature for your mobile device. It covers, subject to a service fee, two incidents of accidental damage. So if you drop that iPhone into the ocean and fish it out you can get it replaced or repaired for only $79 (twice!). The fee for the iPad is $49 and the iPod touch is $29. Screen repairs and water damage can cost you dearly so the protection of AppleCare + can be a lifesaver!
You can purchase AppleCare+ within 60 days of the purchase of your iOS device directly from “*Small Dog Electronics*”:http://www.smalldog.com or any Apple store. We will have to confirm the purchase date and run a diagnostic test to confirm that the device has no pre-existing damage so you will have to bring it to one of “*our stores.*”:http://www.smalldog.com/retail
I’m always skeptical when it comes to accessories for iOS devices that add things whether it is a microphone, an extra lens for the camera, cases that add wallets, etc… The whole point of the iPhone for me was to have less. I got rid of my camera, video camera, handheld video games, and when my bank signs on to Apple Pay, I’ll lose the wallet. So when I got an Olloclip for Christmas I was worried about how much I would use it and if it was worth carrying these extra lenses with me.
Granted, I’m only a few days in, but so far the photos are worth it and it’s not a huge pain to carry. It’s not something I would carry every day as the camera on the iPhone is fine for everyday shots, but when you know you’ll have the chance to snap some great shots it’s well worth carrying the Olloclip. Like it’s original lens kit for iPhone 4/4S the “*4-in-1 for iPhone 6*”:http://www.smalldog.com/product/86350/olloclip-4-in-1-lens-solution-for-iphone-6-6-plus-silver-black includes a fisheye lens, wide angle, and underneath both lenses it has a Macro 10x and 15x. These are great for capturing shots I never even thought of.
The fisheye allows you to capture more of your surroundings and of course gives that beautiful effect. Wide angle doesn’t affect the actual photo but still captures more of what’s around you. I really like using the wide angle lens to take panoramic shots…it creates a huge photo great for landscapes. Then the macro lens captures detail I didn’t know was possible with the iPhone. For instance, I took a picture of the ice during our recent thaw and you can see the air bubbles and other imperfections which made for a beautiful photo. Even a simple shot of the Lego I got for Christmas came to life.
Ok, enough of my ranting how amazing it is. What’s not amazing about it? Well not much but some small things for sure. The pluses I will note heavily outweigh the negatives, in my opinion. For instance, this version for iPhone 6 works on both rear and front facing camera. Which leads me into the negative. In doing that it covers the light sensor, so if you have your phone set to auto brightness it will automatically think it’s night and turn your screen down. It also makes hitting the effects within the camera app, such as HDR and timer, difficult to hit. You also can’t use a case with these attachments in use. I would imagine that for those using a LifeProof or Otterbox case this would cause quite a bit of hassle.
Overall a great accessory for those who love their iPhone’s camera but want to make it even better.
