Fast and Stable
on October 24, 2022
Posted by: TechMatcher
I've always been a fan of NETGEAR products. This new Nighthawk AX5300 Dual Band Wi-Fi 6 router is no exception. Note that this is not a MESH router - this is a single, stand-alone yet capable router that covers 2500 sq ft. If you have a small multi-level home, placing this on the center floor in the middle of the layout is your best bet. If you have a sprawling setup with lots of metal/concrete interference, you might want to consider a 2 or 3 node mesh router - like an Orbi.
Overall - I am very please with the performance of this router. In addition, the 5 gigabit ethernet ports (1 WAN, 4 LAN) make it convenient to hardwire multiple devices if you need the truest and fastest speeds - like for gaming. This device has a triple-core process and 512MB or RAM to easily handle up to 25 devices.
This router uses the AX wireless standard - to handle the newest and fastest generation of WiFi devices. Note that your existing desktops/laptops/devices may not yet use the AX standard - but since the router is backwards compatible, you won't have any trouble connecting.
Again - this is a very capable device that is easy to setup and use! If you haven't upgraded your Wi-Fi for a couple years - this will make a significant difference in your experience. Always be sure to update the firmware as well - to be as safe and secure as you can!

Get alerted when motion is detected, now up to 28% further away and set custom motion detection zones to only get alerts that matter to you.

Take advantage of the built-in security features like a motion-activated siren, two-way audio, and motion-detection alerts for even more peace of mind. Best of all, it’s easy to mount, has a 6-month battery life with easy recharging via microUSB, and you can even connect it to Wyze Solar Panel to eliminate the need to recharge ever again, depending upon your location.

Good for starting your home monitoring
on September 30, 2022
Posted by: TechMatcher
If you are looking for an affordable home/business monitoring solution - this Wyze v2 bundle might be just the thing for you! Including a Base Station (requiring wired internet) and 3 battery operated cameras, but can move them and place them in the best spots with ease.
Setup was breeze once you have a Wyze account, and these little cameras pack a ton of features. You should make a list of your needs and compare - as there are newer models with more features as well.
After charging the cameras fully, I deployed them to various locations - including switching WiFi networks - just to see if that was difficult. It wasn't - especially since the base station required wired internet - when switching networks you just need to change that and power off/on each camera.
I do like the color night vision - seems to work really well even when it is really dark. If you have an outside light that stays on - the color will work all the time (see picture). You can disable the IR lights if you prefer the color mode - otherwise in low light condition it will start with color then switch to black/white.
To record and save events to the cloud, you'll need to sign up for a subscription (common with many camera systems today). Each camera gets paid for individually - unless you want to just pay $99 for all your cameras.
Overall - I'm liking the portability of the bundle and ease of setup. This is a great place to start if you don't already have an investment in a particular system.

The Wyze Cam v3 is the 3rd generation of Wyze’s flagship camera, the Wyze Cam v2. Like its predecessor, the Wyze Cam v3 lets you see and record 1080p video right from the Wyze mobile app. New to the Wyze Cam v3 is its water-resistant design allowing for outdoor installation with an IP65 rating. The Wyze Cam v3 also takes advantage of an all-new Starlight Sensor which allows for extreme low-light performance and shows great detail in the dark. With the Wyze Cam v3's color night vision, night time video recording appears as if it’s day time.

Easy to setup, great features and quality
on September 30, 2022
Posted by: TechMatcher
I have several properties and thought setting up some cameras for security would be a good idea. These Wyze V3 fit the bill perfectly. For starters - they are relatively cheap so if they get stolen or damaged (likely in my area) it's not a major loss. For that reason alone I'll subscribe to the Cam Plus for unlimited length video recording (back to back available) and a bunch more features (Person/Package/Vehicle/Pet detection), etc.
The fact that these v3 cameras can do Color Night Vision and don't require a base station make them perfect for my use case. They do require power though - as does most everything these days - so really not a problem.
I've set these up in a few locations already - including switching WiFi networks in the process because I wanted to know how that works. It's fairly easy - you basically just re-setup the devices.
The daytime video quality is awesome - and night time is pretty good. You won't be pulling license plates from either mode unless they are close to the cameras - but again - these are $30 cameras. I'm happy with the picture quality they provide.
There are a tone of new features with the v3 as compared to the previous v2 model. Items like IP65 weather resistance, dual IR light system, color night vision as mentioned and more.
Overall - the price is right for you to setup your home security solution today!

Easy to use, perfect for fitness
on August 31, 2022
Posted by: TechMatcher
I'd like to share my thoughts on the JVC True Wireless Fitness Series. I've been looking for earbuds with ear hooks for a while so I was excited to try the JVC's out! I seem to have trouble with earbuds falling out of me ears, as I've lost more than one of earbuds from my other sets over the last 12 months. I'm very active outdoors - whether walking, hiking, yard work, etc - so I work hard and sweat hard all the time.
First off - there are S, M & L earpieces for you to try. I've learn you really do need to spend a few minutes and try them all - on any earbud set you buy - so you can be sure to find the best fit for your ears. Once you do that, you can hook the ear hooks around your ears, pair easily to your mobile device and start listening.
Pairing was super easy, but remembering the controls was a little more difficult. Most earbuds use a series of touches to control volume, pause/play songs, skip and reverse songs. These JCVs are the same - so just read through the directions so you know which one to touch.
Battery life is good as well - 7+ hours in the earbuds, and 22+ hours in the case. If you run the earbuds dead - it will take 2 hours to full charge them again - so plan ahead.
Overall, this is an economical set of devices that stay on your ears well (I still have both of mine) and produce quality sounds.

Mesmerizing and Relaxing
on August 31, 2022
Posted by: TechMatcher
It was kind of an impulse purchase - but something I've always wanted. The HoMedics drift Meditation Sand Table is quite the conversation piece. The 21" version is large. Large enough to be it's own end table. It would have been nice to come with an adjustable stand - so that's something I'm still keeping my eye out for.
Unboxing the table, it was easy to assemble, but a little tricky to evenly distribute the sand. However, with a bit of use, I think it has distributed the sand will on its own.
My whole family was home for the maiden run - and it was funny to see everyone crowding around the table - watching the steel ball draw images in the sand. The LED lights enhanced the experience - and the whole family was mesmerized. Even the teenage friends that were over stood around and watched - or checked in every few minutes to see the progress on the new pattern.
The app makes it easy to change the lights, set color changing effects or play a new pattern. There are many patterns to choose from, and I'm hoping they continue to release more.
I rated only 4 stars due to a few reasons:
1. I would have liked a little adjustable height stand to come with it making it even more usable as a piece of furniture.
2. I've looked around a bit with no success, but I was wondering if I could import pictures into the app and have it render it into a drawable item. Doesn't seem like that functionality exists yet. Hoping for something like it in the future.
3. Comparing to images from other sand tables, is seems like there are fewer images available on the drift - again hoping that changes and they continue to release new patterns and pictures.
Overall - the HoMedics drift Meditation Sand Table is fun to use, definitely a conversation starter and help take away your stress while you watching the image unfold.

Powerful and light

Posted by: TechMatcher
I'm a floor fanatic. I'm constantly cleaning the floor, likely because I have 2 dogs and a cat. This Shark Stratos vacuum makes quick work of the pet hair, long girl hair and has a nice fresh scent!
I own other Shark vacuums, the the Stratos ups the game with Odor Neutralizing technology. Basically it's a scent cup that you install and modify the scent intensity. Interesting feature but it's just another thing to purchase. If you use a powder or carpet scent already - this is the vacuum for you!
Like the other Sharks - I'm impressed with the power and handling of the Stratos. The lift-away container/motor turn it into a stick-vac, so you can easily vacuum under beds, couches, chairs and tables. The head width is perfect for steps too - never a fun job but made easy with this vacuum.
Shark provided a nice long cord - you might be able to do your entire floor from a single outlet - depending on the size of your house of course.
I also like the position of the power button and ability to change the floor type setting right from the handle.
It's easy to clean the dust bin, filters are easily accessible as well and the powerfins basically clean themselves!
Overall - I highly recommend the Shark Stratos and other Shark products as well - I haven't been disappointed yet!

Great fit - super sound!
on August 15, 2022
Posted by: TechMatcher
I've had these new JLab JBuds now for a little over a week, and I must say that I'm impressed with the fit in my ear, the quality of the sound and ease of use for the charging case.
I've struggled in the past to find the right earbud fit for my ears, they are always too loose and fall out easily. The JBuds come with 3 different sizes of ear cushions, using the smallest one seemed to be a good fit for me. It is important that you actually take the time to try all three sizes as well as the "cush fins". Getting the right fit is important to sound quality and over all comfort.
The case is small, has a built in integrated USB-A charging cable with is about 2" long. That could present a problem for some - but I have lots of USB charging ports available so that wasn't an issue for me.
Features include: sweat proof with IP55 (except the case), multi-point (connect to two devices - like your phone and laptop), custom EQ settings and a 9 hour play time and 27 hours stored in charging case.
I gave only 4 stars for a couple reasons: 1. there's no power button to turn the earbuds off if you don't have the case with you. You need to turn off Bluetooth on your phone, then the earbuds will power off after 3 minutes. 2. The button functions are a bit difficult to remember - see photo for example.
Lastly, I made several phone calls using these earbuds and I was surprised at the voice quality on both ends. No noise suppression means you'll have to stay in quiet areas, but the quality is impressively good if you are!
Overall, for the price these are a great choice for your daily drive (use Be Aware mode), working out or just chillin' at home!

Solid construction but short on memory
on July 31, 2022
Posted by: TechMatcher
I recently received the Dell G15 gaming laptop powered by the AMD Ryzen 5 6600H CPU, 8 GB DDR5 4800 GHz RAM, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 GPU and a 512GB Hynix NVMe drive stick.
Initial performance test scores using Passmark Performance Test 10.2 (so you can compare to your current rig) are posted in the pictures. For a laptop, the scores were pretty good in my opinion - however you can achieve much faster scores on a desktop with bigger power supplies, etc.
After downloading and installing all Microsoft patches, then all the Dell recommended patches, I loaded my two test games - Forza Horizon 5 and Microsoft Flight Simulation standard. There's not alot for space for games with a 512GB NVMe disk - so you'll have to upgrade/add a drive to keep them loaded and handy. After added my two games plus Sniper Elite 5, I'm down to 32 GB free.
So - after the games loaded and the laptop was fully charged, I grabbed my XBox controller and heading out on the porch to play a little. The quick story is that in playing Forza Horizon 5, I ran out of system memory quickly (see picture), and the graphics because sluggish and lagging - sometimes freezing momentarily. In less than an hour - I received a low battery warning.
Back into the house to plug in and take a quick flight in Microsoft Flight Simulator - I experienced lagging graphics during game play as well.
Thinking ahead - I order 32GB of DDR5 4800Ghz memory and in arrived within a day. I installed the memory today and testing the game play again. Forza Horizon 5 ran more smoothly, and non memory errors. Same with Microsoft Flight Simulator - much more smoothly.
I will mention that the sound on this system is AWESOME. It's loud and broad. Well done there!
Overall, I'd recommend this device/processor combination - but would highly recommend budgeting in for 32GB RAM and planning ahead for a hard drive upgrade or USB-C external drive.

Big sounds from this small package
on July 31, 2022
Posted by: TechMatcher
I'd like to say that I'm using this new Sony SRS-XE300 for myself - but my Daughter is a Senior on the school dance team and has commandeered the unit to practice dance! Definitely big sounds come from this small package - and she's loving it. It was extremely easy to pair to her iPhone, provide a great deal of sound, battery last forever (up to 24 hours) and since it's rugged and waterproof - you really can't go wrong! She charges it overnight about once a week.
The size is great for her duffle bag and light to carry around with no effort at all.
When it's at home and charging - she uses it as a speaker phone at her desk. It provide pretty good quality voice audio and appears to cancel and echo of the incoming speaker. The mute button is easy to access in case you need to put yourself on mute quick (like due to the dog, UPS man, etc).
Overall - I recommend this bluetooth speaker if you're looking for a rugged and portable device. Download the Sony apps to gain access to addition special effects and sounds too! Lastly - although I only have one - if your friends buy one as well, you can use Party Connect to link up to 100 of these devices together. That would be mind blowing!

Quality product and great sound!
on July 13, 2022
Posted by: TechMatcher
I'm a big fan of BlueParrot headsets - I've used the 350, 450 and now the 650. I was really excited to try the 650 and see the differences in the models. Here's a quick summary on the S650:
Pros:
-Fits well on my head/ears
-Awesome active Noise Cancelling
-Mono/Stereo ability by detaching entire earpiece
-1/8" port for plugging into airplane
-Long battery life
-Very nice carrying case
Cons:
-A bit bulky and heavy
-Earcups not adjustable (different sizes for those with bigger/smaller ears)
-Seems to require BlueParrot app to setup
Using and testing with my iphone allowed me to run to many of the features and test voice quality. As expected - voice quality is outstanding - just like the previous models. I work from home and talk on the phone for most of my job - usually 1-2hour conference calls - so the ability to hear and be heard clearly is essential for me. This was easily handled by the S650. Comfort was very good as well!
The tricky part for me was getting the device to answer the phone quickly - or be recognized correctly by the web conference app - like Webex, Teams, etc. I sometimes had to power the headset off then on to make sure it was correctly connected to the phone, then passed through to the app. I'm still working through that and think it has more to do with the apps than the headset - but still a bit frustrating.
Overall - I'm impressed with the features, durability and quality and will use this as my primary headset from now on.

Rest easy knowing your home is protected, whether you're there or away with Arlo Pro 4. With no wires, your camera connects directly to your Wi-Fi network so you can easily install in minutes. Spot unique details with color night vision, and see more in dark areas with the integrated spotlight. The advanced lens provides superior image quality and a wider field of view, and allows you to track and zoom on moving objects with clarity. Hear and speak to visitors clearly with two-way audio. Receive notifications and view videos that tell you a package, person, vehicle or even an animal is detected, so you can take quick action like phone a friend, sound an alarm or call emergency services with included trial of Arlo Secure. Personalize what you get notified for and create custom activity zones to ensure you only get alerts for what matters, reducing those that are less important. Arlo Secure includes cloud recordings of video clips at 2K or lower resolution for 30 days. Renewal of an Arlo Secure plan is required to maintain Arlo Secure features, including cloud storage and activity zones.
 

So I purchase an Arlo 4 to live stream on my wi fi as a SIXTH camera to my already FULL 5 camera account. I get a free smart subscription and everything works. When the subscription expires and I do not wish to renew, my Arlo 4 is useless, correct?

Well - yes. You either pay for the Arlo subscription upgrade, or perhaps you remove one of your older Arlo's and leverage the great camera quality and features of the Arlo Pro4. Unfortunately, that's the way technology goes - replace old stuff with new stuff.

Can I combine 2 arlo essential and 2 ArloPro4 on the same account?

Yes - I have many version of the Arlo products on my single account.....so should not be a problem!

Monitor your surroundings with this Night Owl 16-channel DVR security system. The four Full HD cameras feature L2 Color Boost technology to maintain footage clarity in low-light conditions, while the single sign-on two-step verification ensures secure access. This Night Owl 16-channel DVR security system features a 1TB HDD for ample storage.
 

Will this DVR system work with other non-night owl cameras (PAL)? I have some really nice wide angle, commercial grade cameras.

From my understanding, it may work - but Night Owl only supports their certified products.

Does the new surface book 3 come with the surface pen or would i need to purchase one separately?

Unfortunately, you would need to purchase it separately. Myself, I plan to get one - specifically to markup drawings and documents during web conferences.

What is "Realistic Battery Life" of the Microsoft Surface Book 3 - 15 inch if it is used mainly to run software like Excel, Word, Microsoft Edge browser, and some YouTube video ? I've seen video reviews which have mentioned as little as 6 hours.

I've already used mine for 12 hours without charging. The Microsoft website claims 16 hours..

What are the differences between Surface Book 2 and Surface Book 3?

Aside from the price (SB3 is obviously more), the SB3 is upgraded with a newer/better CPU, a better GPU, WiFi-6, better battery life, more memory options, etc.

Where is the camera located?

The SB3 has 2 cameras - one on the back in the upper right corner, and in the upper center on the front (screen side). The both work great - used them for Skype, Webex and Zoom calls just today!

Im looking to purchase this for dual purposes. Audio production With Pro Tools, and Digital art with Adobe products. Will the SB 3 Be able to handle both?

Yes - I'm confident the SB3 will be able to handle this. Take a look at the Microsoft web page for the SB3 - they give you some examples that may help to make your decision.
