As a person who is coming from a normal toothbrush experience I can honestly say I think this works extremely well, there are a few things that I had/have to get used to.
My wife for years recommended I move over to a Sonicare like her, I declined saying my normal toothbrush was just fine as I was getting good reports from the dentist. Of course she was right though, Sonicare delivers.
The first couple of times I brushed with this toothbrush I realized I'm using way too much toothpaste. The sonicare vibrates so much it will throw toothpaste and spit everywhere if you're not careful. I've learned to use less and keep my mouth closed. The sonicare does all the hard work for me, no real need to scrub like I used to. Also this toothbrush has different levels of clean, gum health and deep clean. You can change these to your liking and also adjust the intensity of vibration from rattle your eyeballs to comfortably numb.
It pauses every few seconds to alert you to move on to the next section. If you apply too much pressure (like I was) it vibrates to let you know.

The app also tells you things such as how much pressure you are using, how many times a day you typically brush and how much life your brush head has left on it. The brush heads are pretty expensive (to me)and seem to last about 180 days each. There is a way to set up auto re-ordering for brush heads inside the app but I'll probably just order them online. There are also options within the app that you pay for called teledentistry. You pay $10 per report and they answer questions about oral care. Not something I'm interested in since I have a great dentist that I can email quickly, but could be helpful to some.
All in all, when I'm done using the Sonicare my teeth feel clean and white, my gums don't hurt, they're not red or bleeding and I'm letting the toothbrush do all the hard work. Besides learning a new way to brush with less toothpaste and the cost of the brush heads I think this thing is worth it!

Great idea for slouchers.

Very interesting little product. Basics: It sticks on the upper part of your back, calibrates your posture as you stand straight up and down and then notifies you when you slouch by vibrating.
Not going to lie, it was super annoying at first and I noticed that my posture went from ok in the morning to pretty bad in the evening. This is likely from sitting at a desk all day and having poor posture in general. The first day I overdid it, tried to wear it for like 10 hours and ended up making my back hurt worse since my back is not used to being straight. After a week or so and some fine tuning of the notification system, I started noticing fewer and fewer notifications. I feel like this is actually helping me sit and stand straighter. The key is to take it slow, unlike me on the first day trying to wear it non stop. Use it the way it is intended and don't rush. Do what the app tells you. My posture has been bad since I was a kid, but I feel like this is making a difference.
Pros:
Small
Easy to setup
App is easy to use
Variable modes to use
Variable levels of vibration from soft to rather jarring
Seems to actually work.
Adhesive backs last several times and are relatively cheap
Cons:
May be difficult for some people to put on their back.
Can see the bump through some clothing.
Will have to eventually buy more adhesive backs.

I think if you're having back pain like me or have always had poor posture like me, the upright go 2 would be worth the small investment in your health.

This blender fits perfectly with the large 64oz pitcher attached under my cabinets. Unlike our previous, very expensive blender which we would have to pull out onto the counter to use this one is suctioned to the area under the cabinet and hasn't moved since we started using it.
The blender comes with 2 additional cups and lids for the cups. This is very helpful if you typically just want to do a quick shake before work and head out the door with it. Nobody wants to make a shake for yourself in a 64oz blender pitcher and then have to clean the pitcher before leaving. I think Nutribullet thought this through.
The extract button seems to blend the perfect protein smoothie. If not you have a pulse button and high medium and low. I don't know what more you would need. I like this blender alot and it has replaced the $300 blender we previously had.
One thing I didn't expect is that it is very loud. Seems louder than the expensive blender but I feel like all blenders are loud unless they're in a smoothie shop.

If you ran into the same problem as us with your blender being too tall to sit where you'd like on your counter, check out the Nutribullet. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Note TLDR Pros and Cons at the bottom.
Sony seems to be right on the cutting edge of noise cancellation in the over the ear headphone (wh-1000xm3) but for several reasons, these earbuds fall short of 5 stars.
Sony seems to be right on the cutting edge of noise cancellation in the over the ear headphone (wh-1000xm3) but for several reasons, these earbuds fall short of 5 stars.
Unboxing I noticed that the packaging was classic Sony and felt quality. I saw that Sony had already placed rubber tips on the earbuds and included 6 other sets that varied between rubber and silicone. Why so many, I wondered.
The charging case has a flat top and a round bottom. The Sony logo is on the top, which is kind of weird to me since if you wanted to sit these up then the Sony logo would be facing down. Kind of strange but whatever, this is from a company that named these earbuds WF-1000xm3 instead of Sony Soundbuds or some other easily identifiable name.
I already had the sony app on my phone and I paired them with my iphone x pretty easily and I tried them out. I thought the sound was pretty good, messed around with the eq built into the app and got the sound tweaked to where I wanted it. Awesome. I won't get into what types of audio it accepts or doesn't, I do podcasts and spotify for the most part and it works for me. There is a very slight lag in watching videos. It doesn't bother me but I'm sure it would irritate someone who concentrates heavily on such things. Is the sound as good as my Bose Soundsport Free earbuds? Probably, plus these are noise cancelling. The app allows you to control the tap functions on the side of the earbuds and switch those controls from bud to bud.
Noise cancellation on this set is not as good as Sony over the ear headphones which I kind of expected, but still pretty dang impressive. When noise cancelling is on, you can still make out some noises in the background. Tapping on a keyboard, my kid talking etc.. They do a good job though, for earbuds...so maybe I'm just being picky. Through the app you can control how much sound gets through the buds, which is nice. Every now and then i'll get random "dings" in the earbuds, not really sure what that is...I go to the app and nothing shows up.
I charged the case when I first got them about a week ago and have tried them out every day for anywhere from 20 min to a few hours and whenever I pull them from the case, they're fully charged. Good job Sony. You can check the battery charge on the app for each bud, which you can use independent from one another. If you need one ear to be free just put one in the charger while using one bud in your ear.
So you may be asking why are they not 5 stars? 2 reasons in my book. Sony, what are you thinking with the fitment? 1 these are not dust or water rated so that's kind of strange, maybe they have something in the works for a new model. They weigh right around the same as a Bose Soundsport free which are IPX4 rated, but Bose puts a wing on the rubber part of their bud so that it hugs the inside of your ear. Sweet, I can go work out, mow the lawn, sweat do whatever without any fear of them falling out. Not so much for Sony. I delayed writing this review due to the fact that these things have fallen out of my ears twice while doing very little. The first time it was late evening and I'm trying these out standing at the sink washing baby bottles, and I felt the left one starting to slip out. Hands covered in water and soap I didn't feel comfortable grabbing them and I backed away from the sink and dried off my hands and began to shove them back into my ear. While doing so I hear "ambient sound" because the controls are very sensitive and on the sides of the buds. The second time they nearly fell out I was listening to a podcast, started laughing and when I smiled my jawbone/ear area I guess moves up and the right earbud pops out. (Yes my ears are clean.) I remember using my wifes airpods once while cutting the grass and having one fall out from sweatting and the feeling of my stomach dropping when I almost ran it over with the mower. Never again.
I've tried every size that they offer on these, I'm not sure what else to do. I tried to put my bose rubber buds on with the wings that would hold it to my ear but they, of course, fit differently. This basically makes this a device that I really only feel comfortable using while I'm very stationary. Take them to the gym? No. Mow the grass? Probably not since they fell out washing bottles. Does this leave an area for another company to come in and create an aftermarket rubberized ear piece that fits and hugs the inside of your ear? Yes, but that should not have to happen at what these cost.
Would I recommend these to you? Maybe. I don't know if they'll stay in your ear but if they do, they work great and sound good! The app is cool and the options in the app can be seen below in my pros and cons. I floated between giving these a 3 or 4. The sound is great, noise cancelling good, but the fitment is bad.
TLDR Pros and Cons
Pros:
Sound quality great
App is great
Noise cancellation good
Case/bud construction feels quality
Buds fit close to your ears

Pretty insane sleep tracker. It knows alot.
on July 23, 2019
Posted by: charliehustle77

The Withings Sleep Tracking mat is pretty crazy with how much it tracks. I have to admit I was skeptical at first, but once I used it, it made me want to put effort into getting a better night sleep. Ever hear people who say a health tracking watch makes them want to workout and stay healthy? The same applies for this.
Background, I am a middle aged man who according to my wife snores loudly when I sleep. I figured the Sleep Tracking mat would be interesting to see what causes me to snore and how much it happens, as well as several other factors.
The mat tracks the duration of your sleep, the depth (deep, rem and light), the regularity, interruptions (did you get up to use the bathroom or for anything else?), the time it takes for you to go to sleep, the time it takes for you to get up, breathing disturbances, heart rate and time spent snoring. It knows when you're awake and when you fall asleep.
If you're paying attention you can see that's alot of info that is tracked from a small mat that you put under your mattress. How does it work? I don't know, maybe magic? I would guess the snoring part would be done by recording sounds in your bedroom which is weird but I'm pretty sure you can turn that part off.
So what did I find? Lots of things but mainly I don't get to bed early enough and I don't snore as much as my wife says I do (although she's argued that the mat probably isn't working right lol).
This thing works so well that me and my kid were laying on the bed last week and I dozed off while the kiddo was playing on my ipad. It tracked that as a nap (since I guess it was in the afternoon) and since we laid there for about 30 minutes it knew I was awake for 28 minutes and it knew I dozed off for 2 minutes. Mind blown.
All in all I have found myself wanting to increase my overall score. My main problem is I get to bed too late so I don't get enough sleep. This device has me trying to get to bed earlier so I can bump my score up. It's also really interesting seeing all the stats, especially the heart rate and snoring.

Very good for the money.

This soundbar and accompanying sub sounds really good and provide clarity and bass that my old soundbar didn't or couldn't offer.
To start off the soundbar has some weight to it and a quality feel. I wall mounted it below my mounted TV because I have a little one who loves to pull things off of tables. The enclosed wall mount seems pretty stable and substantial compared to my previous soundbar. It has two L shaped brackets that mount to the wall and then screw into the bottom of the soundbar. Since I was mounting it by myself, the enclosed paper that indicates spacing from TV and spacing for brackets was helpful. Even though It took quite a while for me to center it, this made leveling it super easy.
Connections for the soundbar are your usual suspects in optical digital and HDMI ARC. I connected with the included optical cable (There is no HDMI cable included) You can also stream bluetooth and use a USB for this soundbar. The remote controls both the soundbar and subwoofer, including the center speaker (it has one built in) and the optional rear speakers.
My preferred setting for this soundbar is the DTS Virtual X. The quality is crystal clear and the subwoofer enhances the entire experience. I tried some of the other settings but they just seemed too empty to me.
The only issue I had with this system is that my past setup had the subwoofer set up under an endtable that is located about 4 feet to the right of the TV. Never had a connection issue ever with my previous soundbar. While trying out the SL6Y I noticed the sub kept cutting out. I did the typical unplug/plug back in and reconnected the sub but still had issues with the sub dropping out. The sub provides a lot of depth in this system so when it drops out, you really notice it. I contacted LG about the issue and the suggestion was to power off/on the soundbar which I had done and move it to a different location, which I didn't want to do but did anyway. After moving the sub, I haven't heard it cut out yet. I moved it to the left of the TV this time and in the corner of the room, which to my surprise made the sub even louder and provided more depth. My wife now thinks its waaaay too much bass but I think it sounds great. The only thing I can think of is that there is a printer that would have been another 3 feet away from the previous setup that might have caused interference? Seems kind of silly and as I said, never happened with my previous setup but moving did seem to work. It's been several days since moving it and all seems fine but I'll still be listening to make sure that's what the problem is.
Overall the system sounds deep in bass and crisp in highs. Just what i'm looking for in an affordable sound bar. I don't like the fact that I had to move it to prevent interference, but it seems to have worked. If you're not looking to break the bank on a soundbar but want to step it up from 2.1 with the option of adding rear speakers in the future, check out this system in DTS Virtual X mode at Best Buy and see if its right for you. I'm a fan.

I had been hoping to get a doorbell video system for quite a while. I currently have several cams (from the largest online retailer that begins with A and ends with N) set up on a few areas. This doorbell cam will be used as a supplementary method of keeping an eye on my place that runs on a different network setup.
Install was pretty straight forward. There are plenty of write ups and videos on how to do this online to I won't go into it here. If I can do it you probably can too. Super easy.
Using the doorbell for the past few days it has worked well but sometimes been hit or miss. If I'm away from home and using my work wifi like I usually do it takes around 20 seconds for me to connect to the doorbell. Twice I connected to a complete black screen, yet I can hear the microphone. However, when I re-watched the encounter I was able to see everything and hear everything. Kind of strange but I will tweak my network and settings of the skybell to try and get that fixed since I'm normally on wifi while at work 8 hours a day. If however, I am on a good strong mobile signal it takes around 15 seconds to access the doorbell live vid and everything came in perfectly.
There have been several times in the past few days where I have tried to access the live view of my porch and I received the error message that "Stream cannot be established." Normally if I closeout and re-open the live view, it works flawlessly but sometimes it takes a few tries. I would think that if time was of the essence this would be an important feature to have working flawlessly at all times.
Pros-
Camera quality is good.
Mic speaker quality is good on both ends.
Easy to install and connect to network.
Motion detection set to low works well for me with no false positives.
LED customization.
Easy to use app.

Cons-
Trouble connecting to live view causing me to stop and try to connect again to remove error message.
Black screen when trying to access the live view.
Plastic housing looks/feels cheap and logo is large and eye catching.

-Presentation- The outer presentation of the doorbell itself I personally think looks kind of cheap. I don't think there was a reason to have SKYBELL on the doorbell part of the device. It kind of looks gaudy. I think a minimalist approach would be better but it looks like that's how Skybell brands their products, but sometimes less is more. I'm not a big fan of the plastic design and feel they could have went with aluminum for both the bracket and the doorbell, but those are just my opinions. Maybe this is to provide a more affordable product. Ability to change LED colors is neat.
-Camera quality- This looks great in my opinion everything from 720p up looks great. It is a fisheye effect so you can get a wider angle of view. I personally like that for my front porch but others may not. Even at night the quality is good which is reassuring to know.
-Audio quality- Sounds good on both ends, my phone and the doorbell. Communication is fast and easy to understand on both ends.
-Notifications- You can choose to notify in 2 ways. Motion sensor and by someone pressing the doorbell. You get a "ding dong" notification on your phone or tablet so you can definitely tell the difference in between other notifications and the skybell. My skybell faces the road of my culdesac and it is not triggered by any cars driving by. The motion sensor set to low does a great job and picking up when someone is walking towards my house and on to the porch. I appreciate this since my other branded cameras have 10 settings and I'm constantly trying to find the right setting to not trigger the notifications when the wind blows or a bee hovers near the camera.
You can also choose to turn off your doorbell inside your house which parents with a napping baby may appreciate.
You can also choose to turn off your doorbell inside your house which parents with a napping baby may appreciate.
All in all this is actually a good and useful doorbell if they can just get the kinks worked out on the live view errors and the blank video stream (which may be on my end, I will find out). If skybell could fix the connection issues I could look past the other cons. It does seem like another good tool to keep watch over your house while you're away.

Another year for Vizio televisions.
on May 28, 2019
Posted by: charliehustle77
from Virginia
This is another great TV offered by Vizio that offers high end tech and . I have a 2018 Vizio P-Series that I love and is going strong and this new 2019 version of the Quantum P-Series does not disappoint either.
Out of the box Vizio takes into account the size of the TV. I know it's hard, but follow the instructions on the box. They make the box so that the top opens, you remove the remote, manual, cord and stands. Then you slide the box right off of the base. This reveals the tv which is wrapped in a bag with handles and the screen is protected with a cardboard/padded piece. I left that on until I had the tv on the wall. The TV looks pretty epic, with very little bezel and a thin design. All the inputs are on one side of the tv and vizio made that area sunk into the tv a little more than the rest making cable management a little easier. The power cord is on the other side. The stands are very wide on the tv. Make sure if you're not mounting it, that you have a wide base/stand to put it on. The only head scratcher is the clear adhesive protector Vizio used to go around the bezel. When I removed it, it left adhesive stuck to the bezel? What in the world. This didn’t happen with my P-series last year, strange that it happened this year. I tried peeling slower, I tried peeling faster, still the same. I will have to use some alcohol swabs to lightly run down the sides of the TV to get it off. Not something you want to have to do to a brand new TV.
That one negative being said, there’s not much bad to say about this tv. After turning it on you’ll see how bright and colorful this TV really is. Vizio has done a great job with their “Calibrated” and “Dark Calibrated” settings. I use Calibrated and tweak a few small things but for the most part, it’s spot on. Watching 4k content on Netflix just doesn’t seem like you’re watching on a LED screen. The blacks are so black it seems like an old school plasma and the color is rich and deep. I watched the movie Triple Frontier and the quality of the movie on this tv had my jaw dropping. If you get the settings just right, the black screen while on, will barely show up in an all black room. Watching sports like hockey and basketball they look great with no pixilation and vivd colors. Playing games on PS4 I notice no lag. This TV is going to make me go buy a ps4 pro it looks so good. The quantum dot technology seems pretty amazing and the HDR10 and Dolby Vision look spectacular when available.
The remote is the same as last year with there being a direct button for Netflix, Amazon video, iHeart and a few other services that I probably won’t use. Would be cool to see a few options for apps that you can program in there, but I’m sure there is a contract and money involved for those apps to be on the remote. Still waiting for that backlit remote, makes me appreciate my xfinity cable remote that lights up when I touch it, so much more. As of now, there is no youtube app on the app screen. That is different from last year but not a game changer for me to be honest since you can still stream directly from your phone when using youtube. Just weird they didn’t add it. With the chromecast option, you can stream a ton of apps to your tv. Watching sports like hockey and basketball they look great with no pixilation. Playing games on PS4 I notice no lag. The tv supports google assistant and alexa and is supposed to soon support apple homekit.
Couple of cool things to note. The watchfree or plutotv option that vizio offers is actually really cool. It wouldn’t make me go out and cancel my cable and I laughed at it the first time I saw it, but I have found myself watching it for quite a while and forgetting that I wasn’t watching the cable I pay for. If you have cut the cord, this is a great option for you. Another cool thing that I just really started playing with is the vizio app. It makes it way easier to change picture settings on the fly without using the remote. You pull up the settings you want to change and you just use your finger to slide the bar over till you get what you want. Really convenient option that I just found.
I know some people have their mind set on Vizio not being up there with the big names like Sony and Samsung but I’ve got to say, Vizio is turning a lot of heads with the specs and picture quality on these new TV’s. I’m sold on it and since last year I’ve been recommending others who are in the market, to take a look at what Vizio is offering and to give them a shot. Don’t believe me? Go check it out for yourself!

Ok for console, Good to go for PC
on January 23, 2019
Posted by: charliehustle77

I've used these both on PC gaming and PS4. Using them for gaming on PC you can take advantage of all the cool features these have to offer like 7.1 surround, THX, audio customization etc. Really cool and I found no major issues in using them on PC to be honest. Very cool headset for PC use.
I however, don't game on the PC as much as my PS4 these days.
Using them for the PS4 you only plug them into your controller via 3.5 jack. There's no way to plug the usb into your console and take advantage of any added features. Don't get me wrong,I think the sound is still decent thru console even with the issues below, but if that's your preferred method of gaming you may want to look at something else.
The issues I faced when using them for PS4 is:
-Sound cutting in and out periodically. (A few times per hour)
-The volume is not high enough even when its at its highest.
-The volume control is easily moved up and down accidentally by rubbing on your shirt or clothing causing me to pause and fix it. This is the most annoying to me.

As far as fit I found these to be a very comfortable fit, even for long gaming sessions and a very nice looking headset but at times I wish they were a little tighter on my head as the sound feels far away and not loud enough at times gaming on PS4.
Depending on which way you are going to use the headset (console vs PC) this might sway you one way or another on whether or not to buy these. Since all my friends game on PS4 I wouldn't recommend these to them, if we all gamed on PC I likely would.

Pros:
Relatively easy to install front camera.
Front camera has good 1080p quality.
Sound quality is good to go.
Wire hiding tool is helpful when installing the wires.

Cons:
Rear camera quality is not good.
Wire that attaches to the rear cam is not removable..weird.
My fuse box is in the hood (Ram 1500) so hard wiring will be more difficult.

I will start off by saying the idea is good and I knew the features of this model when I got it. I understand that there is more cost and a little more memory needed with both cameras at high res but it might be worth it to look at the V1P Pro Front and Rear Cam.
I wired up the camera in the front and was pleased although It was just plugged into my cigarette lighter plug. As mentioned earlier, my fuse box is located under my hood so I will have to figure out a way to run it there, or pay best buy to install. Too cold to hard wire it myself right now. I hooked up the rear camera, when doing this I didn't run the wire under the carpet or hide it since I just wanted to test it out. There is a noticeable difference in the quality in the front and rear cameras, especially at night. Maybe I'm just spoiled by HD quality video? I assume this is because they think what goes on in front of you is more important or can add to the rear footage if you're involved in an accident?
All wires seem long enough for a large vehicle. Using the camera is pretty easy once you get the memory card put in. No issues there.
Overall it's not terrible. I guess if you're not too overly concerned with the quality of your rear camera then this might be a good purchase for you. If not, maybe look into the rexing V1P Pro front and rear cam, that offers GPS, WIFI and dual HD cameras for $50 more. You'd have to decide if it's worth it to you. I would rate it at a 3.5 if that was an option.

Remarkably smooth and responsive cursor control works perfectly on any surface. Connect simply via Bluetooth Low Energy or the included USB receiver with a 33 ft (10 m) range.
hi, the M575 has only been available on Logitech's site in graphite and off-white colors. Guess best buy is having it now... is this "black" color really black? or is it the same graphite-gray that logitech sells on their site?
The part number on the black M575 from Best Buy does not match the part number for the graphite version from Logitech. I would guess they are not the same.

How comfortable are they? Do they feel like they're going to fall out with rigorous exercise (running) or do they have a secure fit a majority of the time?
These fell out of my ears while I was doing nothing. They don't feel secure. The sound on these are great but working out and exercising with these on will probably not be a good idea.
