All in Flavour Phone Case Review*

I am always in the market for new cute iPhone cases so when I heard about All in Flavour, I couldn’t wait to review one. I find it hard to buy cute cases for my phone as it is difficult to buy iPhone 7plus cases in a lot of the shops I visit.


My phone case arrived in a box that was small enough to fit through my letterbox which is fantastic as I always seem to miss the postman when I have music on in the house and it is also good for people who are at work during the day and don’t want to miss their parcels.

When I opened the box, the case was inside a small drawstring bag. I also received a post card and a sticker with the All in Flavour logo on it. I thought that was a nice touch and it was good to know my phone case was securely packaged.


This particular case retails at just over £15, which for a good quality case is definitely worth it. The case is transparent and hard plastic so will protect your phone. I chose a design that was covered in cacti, which suits me to a tee.


Overall, I think this is a really nice case and good quality for the price. There were so many designs available you’d be spoiled for choice! There really is a case to suit everyone. Check out the full range at All in Flavour

Philips Flite Headphones Review* #philipsflite

I am always on the lookout for a decent pair of headphones. I find that earphones don’t always sit right with me and I really enjoy having a paid that sits over my ears. When I was offered the chance to review a pair of the #philipsflite headphones, I couldn’t wait to see if they could top my usual ones. The Flite headphones come in four different models which are the Everlite, Hyprlite, Aerolite and Ultrilite. Each model is a different shape depending on whether it is over ear or in ear.


I was fortunate enough to receive the Everlite headphones which luckily for me go over the ear for ultimate comfort. The first thing I noticed about them is that they are so lightweight. They also fold up small enough to pop in my handbag, gym bag or even in my laptop case for when I am editing on the go.  The tangle free cable means that wherever I put these, they stay as they are. The design is sleek and minimalistic and although I received the dark chrome coloured pair, they also come in white and rose gold which I think would look amazing.


The Everlite headphones that I received have an RRP of £34.99. I am able to take calls, chat with its integrated mic and play or pause my music.

The Flite range are constructed with ultra-light materials and clean lines which follow the contour of your head for long lasting comfort. I have worn these in the gym and also when travelling in a car and both times I have felt comfortable wearing them. The sound is fantastic and clear and I barely feel like I am wearing them yet outside sounds are easily isolated and there are no hints of any ambient noise.


You can check out and buy the entire #PhilipsFlite collection, including the Everlite headphones over here. Check out @PhilipsSound on Facebook for more info.

Amazon Fire Tablet Review*

I have wanted an Amazon Fire tablet since they first came out but never got around to buying one. With so many features it is the perfect all-rounder product and one that I couldn’t wait to review when I was kindly sent one. I received the 8GB Fire Tablet in blue. 

The device has a crisp 7” display and is available in four different colours. I love the vibrant blue colour that I received. It is slightly heavier than I expected it to be but no heavier than carrying a book around in my bag. 


You can do so much on the Fire Tablet including reading which is something I love. There are over one million titles available on Kindle Unlimited and millions more at very low prices. Think of your favourite book and you can guarantee it will be available for you to purchase onto your Fire. If audible books are your thing then this is also an option for you. It makes travelling with books so much easier as you don’t have to bulk out your luggage with heavy paperbacks. You can even add a microSD card for up to 200GB additional storage and there is also the added bonus of free unlimited cloud storage for all Amazon content and photos taken with Fire devices. Additionally, devices come loaded with Goodreads which is my favourite place to find new book recommendations.

If reading isn’t your thing then use the Fire tablet to watch all of your favourite movies and TV shows on Amazon Video, Netflix, BBC iPlayer and more. I love that I can sit and watch Netflix whilst getting ready for work in the morning where I don’t have access to a TV.  Amazon Video also allows you to watch your content on the big screen at home. The fast 1.3 GHz quad-core processor not only means apps launch quickly but videos stream seamlessly too. Amazon Prime members can download thousands of Prime Video movies and TV shows to watch offline anywhere so take your Fire on the go for train journeys or even lunch breaks at work where you want to catch up with your favourite shows. No need to worry about losing charge either, the fire has up to 7 hours of mixed-use battery life which I have found to be pretty accurate.


There are also over 500,000 apps available on the Fire from Facebook to Spotify. I went onto Amazon Underground which is a one of a kind app store with loads of free apps and games including Candy Crush and  Bejewelled Blitz which I know my mum is a big fan of! Not forgetting over 38 million songs are also available to download and you can even read magazines on the device so you really can have everything with the Amazon Fire Tablet.

One thing I did not expect from the Fire Tablet is the fact that you can capture life’s moments with front and rear-facing cameras. The 2 Megapixel rear facing camera is great for taking photos or recording 720p HD videos. Use the front camera for Skype calls with friends and family or the odd selfie.


Overall I have really enjoyed trying out the Amazon Fire Tablet. I think a Prime Membership would definitely enhance the experience and is something I am rather tempted with to help me along when using this device.

Available from Amazon from £44.99.
