Very Nice
on July 3, 2017
Posted by: billr920
Has a good sound quality. I started with some Bluegrass Music and could hear every single instrument with good clarity. Fits snug in the ear and stays there. Paired very quickly to my phone. The ear pieces have a quality feel and just the right amount of weight to them. All the features worked well and stayed connected. The included travel case is nice. Also many extra ear fittings but the ones on the phones worked perfect for me.

Samsung Quality
on May 29, 2017
Posted by: billr920
All is good, but I have some preferences. Fairly fast I5 processor. (prefer I7) I have both in other products. Great packaging included the book, keyboard, stylus and 128GB SD card. Quick set up and needed MS OS updates right off the bat. The first thing you want to do is change the save location for Docs, Pics, Music to the SD card. I have installed 2 small Apps and noticed only 38GB left. (128GB Internal ssd) 256GB would have been more appropriate. Great 4K visual. Watched a few movies with stunning detail. I utilized this as a book and as a tablet and I have been gravitating to the tablet version more. The keyboard feels good and responsive and love that it is backlit and is also the cover for the book. I found the back support is somewhat flimsy. The over all feeling of the book itself has a real solid feeling. Includes 2 USB-C ports. The pen works great and I think it has got to be the best on the market. I was surprised to see Windows Media Player as one of the included Apps which I still use to this day. Samsung has made another great product!

Very portable, Easy to use
on April 25, 2017
Posted by: billr920
Very light weight, easy to wear. Clip on has good strength. Simple use buttons have great functionality. Paired very quickly with my phone. The Sound is good considering the small size and depending on the genre. Turning unit on or off does take quite a bit of pressure on the buttons (must press both -+ at the same time. I would have preferred a separate power button. Over all Good Quality!

Love These Headphones
on March 28, 2017
Posted by: billr920
The first thing I noticed is how comfortable these feel due to the slightly ear shaped oval openings to completely cover my ears and the head padding at the top. The sound is great. I did not like the app at first until I installed the additional app and then I found a better interface to control the headphones. The placement of the play/pause/advance button is good for natural thumb operation but found unintended operation when removing phones from head when someone needs my attention. The base sound is great and not over powering. I have actually had a solid Bluetooth connection beyond 30 feet (not recommended) and I think it depends on the device you are connecting to. This is definitely Sony Quality.

Performance
on March 17, 2017
Posted by: billr920
Assembly was easy. Upon first use I noticed it actually raised the nap of the carpeting and gave it a dimension that I had not seen in a long time. My other vacuum cleaned ok but nothing like this vacuum. It is very powerful and quiet at the same time. It has a little more weight than I expected, but I believe this helps with putting pressure on the carpet. it is aesthetically appealing and stores easily. Very long power cord is nice. The dirt chamber is very easy to remove and dispose of debris. The only thing I do not look forward to is cleaning the filters. The vacuum does feel somewhat flimsy when picking up and makes me concerned that something might eventually break. Swiveling to the right takes more effort, not sure why. Some how the proportions of weight just don't feel right when operating and when moving handle to the parked position, However, I still feel this a very good vacuum and its ability to get the job done out weighs other models on the market.

Wonderful Product
on January 23, 2017
Posted by: billr920
Very powerful motor. It handled everything from smoothies, extracting fruit juice and salads to making hummus and pancake batter. There are so many different options with this machine. I find the pulse function very useful for being able to control and not over do it. The suction mount on the bottom truly keeps the machine in place. Very nice looking chrome/black finish yet compact where is does not require a lot of counter space. It does make a lot of noise which I suppose is why it is full of power. Very easy to operate and has become an important tool in the kitchen.

Cutting Edge Tech
on January 11, 2017
Posted by: billr920
The system comes in a great presentation package. Had a hunch to uninstall and reinstall the Linksys Android App prior to set up which helped to clear any previous Linksys Routers in my app and created a better set up experience. I first set up 2 of the nodes which took approximately 20 minutes. I connected 7 devices with ease. My devices stayed connected so far for the last few days with no trouble. The speed test showed 25mbps download which is correct for my IP. I mostly have AC wireless devices and found the connection speed to average around 650 mbps. My previous Linksys router connected at a more consistent 866.7 mbps with a few slight drops at times but not for very long intervals. I suspect the idea here is consistency with the connection vs speed. I set up the 3rd node next to my home work space PC and still had a consistent 650 mbps. This info is for some of you that are more interested in the technical aspect. *I needed an Ethernet switch to add a desktop and a My cloud device that are located at the first node otherwise I would have to sacrifice one of these. I have explored the app quite a bit and do not see any real way to tweak my network other than a channel scan, but I am still becoming familiar with this system. This is meant to be a very user friendly system for those who prefer to not do any real setting changes. I'm hoping Linksys will add more user interface to the app, possibly a "Advanced User" option. I do see this as cutting edge technology and highly recommend. Another star could be earned if Advanced user access is added to the App.

Better than expected
on December 28, 2016
Posted by: billr920
Did not realize what I was missing until I started using this Ninja. Of Course I had to first make a smoothie. I then moved on to a few of the recipes in the handy BlendMax booklet. This machine has a lot of power and choice options. I am not an expert but this machine makes it easy!

Innovative

Posted by: billr920
Just received today and was pleasantly surprised. Trims with ease. Very simple and easy to use. I was expecting it to be heavy like a razor and it is actually very light weight and easy to hold. I did not care for the nose hair attachment, I will still use my other tool for that purpose. All the other attachments work great. The carry/storage bag is very roomy and holds all components including the power cord with room to spare so I can actually fit my electric shaver in as well when going on a trip.

Cumbersom Interface
on November 8, 2016
Posted by: billr920
Install Took awhile, takes approximately 3GB of hdd. I loaded some action cam movies and it became a learning curve for me. I compared this to software that came with my action cam and found the Adobe Elements to be much more complicated and not for the average user. I do a lot of coffee house videos so I attempted to run a video through this program unsuccessfully. I'm sure a more advanced user would be more successful. The layout of the program could be made to be simplified and more user friendly. I searched for a way to fade the movie out and gave up looking for it. I will continue to work with Adobe, but will fall back on my action cam software for quicker results.

Simplify personal grooming with this Panasonic ARC 5 electric shaver. The ultra-fast motor and five-blade system make short work of facial hair by providing up to 70,000 cross-cuts per minute,. This Panasonic ARC 5 electric shaver has a built-in pop-up trimmer that makes it easy to sculpt mustaches, beards and sideburns.
Can you purchase a charge/clean station separately to work with this razor?
I have tried to investigate the possibility but so far have determined where there is normally electrical contacts on the razor handle for the cleaning station, they are capped off with black covers. Also the model number of the razor version that goes with the cleaning station is different.
