Great Keyboard
on May 19, 2020
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
There are some pros and some cons to this case. Logitech makes great products some of my favorite are their keyboard and mouses. That being said, one of the biggest pros to this case is the keyboard. It offer great key travel and feedback. It is a traditional keyboard most people are used to and makes it great for someone wanting a laptop experience out of their iPad. The case is pretty slim overall considering it packs a full size keyboard but it is not as slim as some other cases on the market. The keyboard uses Bluetooth and connects seamlessly. Some other great features are that it has sleep wake function and it shuts off the keyboard if you flip the case around. Battery life is great and i have not had to charge it yet. One of my person favorites is that it charges off of USB-C (although one is not included) but the same charge used to charge the iPad will charge it. All of this being said their are a few disadvantages to this case. The first thing that i do not like is that it does not cover the sides completely. Although the case still does offer protection if dropped it could potentially be scratched. I also do not like the choice of material used on the outside of the case because it is easily scratched and finger print magnet. The last thing i wish was included was track pad however it is not a huge deal because you can easily connect a Bluetooth mouse. Even with the few cons of this case it is still one of the best cases you can buy for the iPad pro. I would mainly recommend anyone who needs to productivity of a keyboard like college students or business professionals.

Great Sound Bar
on May 13, 2020
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
I have had many different Sony sound bars and i have always been a fan. This Sound bar is no exception to the high quality products that Sony makes. Setting up this sound bar is easy as plugging it in and turning it one. One of my favorite things about this sound bar is that it turns on and off seamlessly with the TV. You can also change the volume using the TV remote. I believe this is achieved by using the ARC function on the TV and may not be compatible with all TVs but i am unsure. Sony does a great job of creating surround sound with only one sound bar and bass. This sound bar can get extremely loud without sacrificing any sound quality. This is a 3.1 channel speaker so it has left, right, and center speakers for even better all around sound. I would highly recommend this sound bar to anyone looking to get high quality audio out of their television.

Amazing Wireless Headphones
on May 8, 2020
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
Finding high quality wireless ear buds has always been a problem for me. I have tried and reviewed several different ones but it is always hard to find ones that are comfortable in my ears and work well. These headphones are by far my favorite wireless ear buds I have ever tested. Two great things about them are the microphones/ call quality and the touch controls they have. Making phone calls on wireless ear buds especially in noisy places can be tricky but after some in depth testing these headphones do an AMAZING job. Everyone I made phone calls to, stated that could hear me with no problem no matter what kind of setting I was in or how much background noise there was. I was very impressed with the call quality. The second great feature is the touch controls. They work seamlessly and easily without much effort. They allow you to do almost anything you would need to include change volume, answer and end calls, play/pause music and many more. They come with 5 different tips for different ear types and the fitment in my ear was perfect. Battery life is amazing stand alone and the charging case adds even more overall battery life. The charging case has a leather and high quality design and I love that it is able to wireless charge or charge via USB-C. These are high quality and premium ear buds and they do come with a price. However, they are well worth it and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great pair of headphones.

Great Speaker!
on April 9, 2020
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
The UX Bridge is an overall great speaker and with Alexa built in it make it even better. There are several pros and cons to this device. The audio quality of this speaker is pretty good. I like that you are able to adjust volume, bass, and treble all from the top of the device. It is loud enough to fill an entire room but overall it’s not that big and also not the loudest. Alexa works extremely well and I was impressed how far away the microphones were able to pickup. Having Airplay 2 built in is great for people who live in the Apple eco system. There are a few downsides to this device though. I found that the setup was a little confusing and took a long time. Marshal has multiple apps and the first one I downloaded was the wrong one. After getting the right app and connecting it in my phones settings, I went back to the app and it tools several tries before it actually finished connecting in the app. The build quality of the speaker in my opinion is not the best and made of hard plastics. Overall the downsides are not deal breakers and this is still la great speaker with the addition to Alexa and airplay 2.

Premium backpack
on February 28, 2020
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
Nomatic makes bags like no other manufacturer. There bags are made of premium materials and with the consumer in mind. This backpack is made exceptionally well and from early testing and use it seems like it will hold up extremely well. Some of my favorite features are the glasses holder, the chord pass through, many many pockets and organizers, expandability, and many other great options. I love the ability to pack away the straps and carry it like a brief case. This makes it a great commuter/work bag. The only downside is that I found the straps do not pack away flush as well as they could. This bag is smaller than some over there other bags but I think it’s the perfect size for short day trips or just your everyday bag. It can definitely be used for travel but Nomatic does make better options for multi-day travel. It is easy to tell that a lot of time and development went into the design of this bag and it is unlike any other backpack I own. If you’re looking for a premium and quality bag look no further.

Awesome Wireless Gaming Mouse
on January 17, 2020
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
Finding a comfortable and quality gaming mouse is not easy. Especially when it comes to wireless mice. Until recently you had to sacrifice speed and accuracy for mobility. Wireless mice were just not on par with wired gaming mice. I believe that this is no longer the case and there are actually a few quality wireless gaming mice on the market. This being one of them. One of my favorite things is that the top of it where your palm rests is made of a different softer material that is comfortable to touch. The RGB lighting is a nice edition. It is fully customizable just like on gaming keyboards. The downloadable software allows for full customization of this mouse. It has enough buttons to use for gaming but no so many that it becomes overwhelming. It has an included charging cable which is USB-C to regular USB. One downfall is that there is not an included USB-C to USB-c. It also offers both wireless USB and Bluetooth connection. The mouse was very responsive and perfect for gaming regardless of which way it was connected. If you are looking for a wireless gaming mouse I would highly recommend giving this one a chance.

Great gaming keyboard
on January 17, 2020
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
This keyboard is extremely high quality and well built. Starting with the design, it is made from high quality materials. The arm rest is padded and topped with soft leather which makes playing games for long periods of time a breeze. The keys are tactile and have a good amount of feedback to them. This keyboard is made for gaming. It has a USB located on the keyboard which makes it convenient for plugging in other gaming peripherals. I am a huge fan of Logitech’s software which allows for complete customization of this keyboard. It comes with a tools and extra keys for easy convenience if you want to switch them out. There are many gaming keyboards on the market and finding the perfect one is hard. I personally believe there are three things to consider when buying a gaming keyboard which is comfortability, usability, and overall design. This keyboard checks the mark in all three categories. This keyboard is also very easy to set up and use right out of the box. The software does not take long to get used to and you can fully customize it to your liking. After using this keyboard for some time it has really made it that much more fun to game with. I have always been a fan of Logitech products and this keyboard is no exception to the quality products they make. This keyboard is highly recommended for anyone who is serious about PC gaming.

High Quality Pro Quality Microphone
on January 3, 2020
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
Blue has been making industry leading technology for a long time. They continue to push the limits making even better products. The Blue Yeti X is no exception to this. Pulling this microphone out of the box it immediately feels very high quality. It feels very good in the hand and the colors look and feel very premium. The best thing that blue does is it brings professional quality to the consumer market. This microphone specifically is very simple and easy to use but has the ability for more advanced users to use advanced features as well. A few of my favorite design features are that it has a button allowing you to change from single person use, to an interview style, stereo, and one that will pick up sound everywhere around it. This is a nice feature because you can use one microphone for everything. On the front side it has a volume knob with LED’s allowing you to make necessary adjustments right on the mic. It also has a mute button which I thought was a nice edition so if you want to make sure it is not recording you can just click that. On the bottom of the MIC it has an input for USB/power and then a headphone input for monitoring which is a nice addition. As far as the quality of the sound, it is extremely good right out of the box. Just plugging it in and testing the sound it sounded better than just about every other basic microphone. The option software that you can download allows for much more adjustments for more professional users to adjust and get the sound they like. This is a very premium microphone and I would recommend to anyone who is looking to recording for video game streaming, music recording, voice overs on video recording, and many other uses.

Must have Camera!
on December 27, 2019
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
As a professional photographer I love this camera. It is amazing how much tech and options are packed into such a small package. This camera is great for shooting on the go video or behind the scenes. It is also great for vlogging. Canon has given this camera some of the best wireless features which allow you to do things such as YouTube Steaming or easy file transfer to a phone or tablet. It also takes extremely great pictures for being just a point and shoot camera. This is thanks to a wide aperture and large focal lengths. The rear screen is great because it goes down at a slight angle and it can also flip up 180 degrees for selfies or vlogging. At the wide end the focal length is wide enough to shoot videos or photos of yourself handheld. This camera is not able to compete with a DSLR or Mirrorless to its fullest extent but if using it for video or occasional/casual photos it is a great option. The user interface is easy to use but mirrors that of canon DSLR’s which is awesome. The portability and compact size of this camera make it a great option for anyone who would like to get a little more out of their photos or videos without getting a full blown DSLR camera.

Awesome Electric Blower
on December 27, 2019
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
I have been looking for an electric battery operated leaf blower. It offers much more convenience over a Gas powered one and it offers the portability that a plug in one cannot offer. I was extremely impressed with this leaf blower. It feels great in the hand and is more powerful than I expected. It has different attachment to make it longer or shorter depending on what type of work you are doing. The batteries charge fast and are compatible with many other products in the lineup. Anyone looking for a decently priced leaf blower that is super easy to use should check this one out.

The Blue Pure 311 Auto air purifier is a top pick in Wirecutter's 'The Best Air Purifier 2020' for "Delivering exceptional performance in an attractive form".¹ The Blue Pure 311 Auto take a simple approach to air quality management with an integrated particle sensor, Auto mode setting, and LED air quality display. The ENERGY STAR® certified air purifier delivers high performance with one-button control and customizable pre-filter colors in a lightweight, compact package. Independently evaluated and third-party tested for performance as part of the AHAM Verifide® Program for room air cleaners, this air purifier has a Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) of 250 cfm for fine smoke particles, 250 cfm for pollen particles, and 244 cfm for dust particles. Recommended for medium rooms like a master bedroom, living room, or playroom with a 360° air intake to completely filter room air about every 12.5 minutes² (approx. 4.8x an hour at 388 ft²) on the highest speed.³ The 3-step combination particle + carbon filter works with Blueair's HEPASilent™ filtration technology to remove 99.97% of airborne particles down to 0.1 microns, like pollen, dust, pet dander, mold, bacteria, viruses⁴ and more.

Ultra-light and portable profile, the apps* you use every day, premium materials, and a choice of must-have colors will make this your go-to laptop. ²Up to 13 hours of battery life based on typical Surface device usage. Testing conducted by Microsoft in September 2020 using preproduction software and preproduction configurations of Surface Laptop Go Testing consisted of full battery discharge with a mixture of active use and modern standby. The active use portion consists of (1) a web browsing test accessing 8 popular websites over multiple open tabs, (2) a productivity test utilizing Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel and Outlook, and (3) a portion of time with the device in use with idle applications. All settings were default except screen brightness was set to 150nits with Auto-Brightness disabled. Wi-Fi was connected to a network.
