Olloclip for iPhone 6 Review

When Apple announced their newest line of iPhones, like many other people, I was extremely excited – finally some new iPhones! Not only was I excited about the iPhones as “phones”, but also I was really excited about the new camera upgrades for both iPhones – the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus.

The new camera upgrades in the iPhone 6/Plus boast some pretty remarkable features. Here’s a short list:

  • Focus Pixels: new sensors in the iPhone’s 8MP camera for faster auto-focus
  • Improved face detection: group pictures and portraits are a whole better with faster, and more accurate face detection focus
  • Auto image stabilization: helps get rid of motion blur and hand shakiness by taking four rapid-fire pictures with a short exposure time, then combining them all together into one awesome selfie.

There’s only one thing that wasn’t added to the awesome new iPhones’ cameras: a macro lens! And that’s where Olloclip knocks it out of the park!

Olloclip’s 4-in-1 system slips right onto the top of your iPhone 6, 6 Plus, or even your iPad. It has extremely versatile modular lenses that give you the option of 10x macro, 15x macro, fisheye, and even wide-angle photography.

The Olloclip is incredibly easy to use, and swapping between the four different lenses is extremely fast – with just a quick unscrew and flip, you can go from macro to fisheye in under 10 seconds!

Thanks to Olloclip, taking pictures on your iPhone has never been so fun!

My two favorite lenses are definitely the wide-angle and fisheye lenses. If you are traveling and taking pictures of tall buildings and monuments, the wide-angle lens is particulary helpful to try and capture as much as possible in the frame. On the otherhand, the fisheye lens makes your sunset or close-up pictures even cooler!

But hey, don’t just take my word for it! Check out some of the pictures I took while testing the Olloclip on my iPhone 6 Plus:

And if you’re looking for some truly awesome photos, from actual professional photographers (and not just from a seventeen year-old with an iPhone!), I have included some pictures taken with the Olloclip courtesy of Olloclip’s website:

The Olloclip 4-in-1 lens system is perfect for photog-junkies, as well as everyday people, like me, who like to take beautiful and unique pictures with their iPhones.

At just $69.99, the Olloclip is the perfect gift for that Instagram-obsessed person on your list this holiday season.

Review: Peel Super Thin Case for iPhone 5

Peel

The design on the iPhone 5 is incredible, with the sleek lines, the different color temperatures, and the anodized aluminum, who would want to cover their phone up with a case?

A case does come in handy though, when you accidentally drop your iPhone, however, and that’s where Peel’s new iPhone 5 cases come in to play!

Peel’s iPhone 5 cases come in two different colors, each designed to complement your iPhone; black and white. The iPhone 5 case is 0.35mm thick, and when you are using your iPhone, you hardly feel any case on it at all (and that’s the best part!)

Peel

As for protecting your iPhone 5, the Peel case does an incredible job for such a thin case. I dropped my iPhone 5 down the steps, (oh, the things I do for reviews – LOL!) and the case held up surprisingly well with not a single scratch on my iPhone 5, which is pretty unbelievable.

Another feature that I really like about the new Peel case for iPhone 5 is the fact that every single Peel case comes “unbranded” meaning there is no logo or company marks on this case. What that means is that you get a thin, mostly transparent iPhone case, so you can enjoy the full beauty and fun of an iPhone 5 without having the “baggage” of a clunky case on your precious smartphone.

Peel

 Overall, the Peel iPhone 5 case is definitely going to be staying as my “go-to” iPhone case for a long time because of the protection, thinness, and top-quality products used when making this case.
