About Paul

I'm Paul. I write about gadgets of every kind: laptops, smart home, audio, wearables, EVs and e-bikes, robots, LEGO, and whatever ships next. Nearly 39,000 people follow that on LinkedIn, and most of them are founders and executives, which still surprises me.

Brands get honesty. Readers get a straight answer. When a gadget is good, I say so. When it isn't, I say that louder.

Beyond the feed I run Future Begins: nine review-and-tools sites covering gadgets, software, travel eSIMs, home tech, EVs, pets, running gear, baby gear and LEGO. Every price on them is verified against a real store, with the country and date next to it.

Based in Portugal. Fluent in spec sheets.
