Smartphone, Camera & Video: LG V20

This multimedia journalist loves her LG G5 smartphone for the ultra crisp photography and video. However, LG’s new V20 is even better. Firstly, LG’s V20 is the first smartphone to be equipped with Android’s new 7.0 Nougat operating system. The 64GB storage can be expanded with a 2TB microSD card. The 5.7-inch display is exceedingly crisp and clear. So is the V20’s camera and video. In fact, the V20 has “Steady Record 2.0,” which automatically keeps the camera steady when covering stories on the move (as in Facebook Live broadcasts). In addition, video is enhanced by the V20’s 32-bit HiFi Quad DAC sound capabilities. The new V20 also has two wide lenses in the front and rear cameras to get three times more room in each frame.

Microsoft Pro 4


Laptop or Tablet? Microsoft Surface Pro 4 

Is it a laptop, a tablet or a “digital book”? Microsoft’s Surface Pro 4 is all three and the one device multimedia journalists need. According to CNET, Microsoft’s Surface Pro 4 is a “trailblazer” as Microsoft’s “best-in-class Windows tablet” that “solidifies the Surface’s position as the gold standard for Windows tablets.” That’s a hefty endorsement for Microsoft’s second-gen Surface Pro 4. Since the first generation, CNET has mused whether or not Microsoft’s Surface is truly a tablet that can replace a laptop. With Surface Pro 4, CNET’s experts are certain of it. And at only around $600, the Microsoft Surface Pro 4 is an affordable way to make you into a tech pro!

On-The-Go Charging: RAVPower

Every on-the-go social media guru carries around a portable charger to keep all of her media charged up. Cheap chargers break rather easily, so consider purchasing a quality device. We recommend two RAVPower models for keeping your laptop, tablet and smartphone charged up at all times. The RAVPower 16750, which is about the size of a portable hard drive — can charge two devices at the same time and at top speed. The RAVPower 2200 has three ports and weighs less than a pound.  Also, consider a pocket-sized charger for those times when you need to travel super light and for covering events like dinner parties and red carpets. For super mobile times, consider buying the Travel Car Charger.

Wearable Tech: Osprey Urban Daypacks

Outdoor lifestyle enthusiasts know Osprey as a an affordable, quality brand for utilitarian backpacks. For tech professionals, Osprey has crafted the Cyber Port daypack.
