Nice upgrade from previous gear
on October 8, 2018
Posted by: badradio
from ca
Over all, I like the Samsung Galaxy Watch 42mm much better than my last Samsung gear watch. The watch is more responsive and streamlined then the other watch was. It seems to have a lot more features with texting and fitness, like checking how many calories I burned and offering suggestions on how to maximize workouts. The only thing I have a complain about would be the wrist band slips a lot on my wrist, especially when I'm being active.

Good upgrade
on August 7, 2018
Posted by: badradio
from ca
I'm coming from a Canon all in one printer that left some room for improvement.
Set up was extremely easy and the ink was a snap getting them into the front loading slot. Which by the way, is good all printers should be. Also the paper is nicely hidden away from site, making the printer look cleaner overall. Wireless printing also worked fine for me.
The big draw was actually the size of ink. Box states 2 years worth, which sounds great. Got it primarily for daughter in middle School for reports and such but should accommodate the entire house hold.

Easy to use

This review is mainy based on the install and ease of use so far.
I have kept my DL speed that I can tell. Windows store did not connect but that is the only app I have noticed not working when NordVPN is set to on.
There are options to set to turn on automatically when the PC does (also available Mac and Mobile).
If you are needs are in line with this product, I would reccomend.

Good standard razor
on April 16, 2018
Posted by: badradio
from ca
Pretty smooth razor. I'm not someone that has a ton of facial hair, but this razor did an effective job at what I threw at it. Did not take long to charge, and easy to clean as well, which is nice.
The only negative, is to be sure you shave close and repeat to get every hair. I found that if not really thorough, there will be missed spots.
I would recommend this shaver. Seems like a great gift option too.

Was hoping for more. Only about 10 hours in but feels like a rpg with 5 year olds. The character designs can be downright embarrassing to look at tbh.
Good for younger players who are into rpg's.

First electric brush
on March 26, 2018
Posted by: badradio
from ca
This is a rechargeable tooth brush that seems to be doing a good job. Has 3 different modes to use for teeth and one for gums etc. The vibration seemed too similar, but good nonetheless.
Also has 3 levels of vibration. I've been using only the lowest setting thus far, seems too intense otherwise. Also included a plastic, clear bristle head cover which is very appreciated.
Would recommend, nice style for brush and charging dock. Bright little lights on the brush too.

Fyi - you can't return after purchase, even if code not scratched off, per Nintendo.
Otherwise, code worked as intended.

easy to set up & use
on December 13, 2017
Posted by: badradio
from ca
Without actually getting a virus to really test this product out, I can really only go by the instal process and the few days since.
This security app comes with quick scan and vulnerability scan ability, with options for app, file & web protection. The 2 scan options have yet to show potential problems, but then again, I don't get very creative anymore in the land of the internets. I have a few sites and whatnot but do not visit any real download sites.
The 3 protections mentioned earlier shows no detected threats thus far, so pretty uneventful.
Also available is Auto pilot. Pretty much an ongoing program that hopefully keeps the pc safe at all times with little intervention from me.
I do wish the verbiage on here would be more specific and less vague. Seems BD went for a nice UI over an crowded or complex set up.
While my version I am using is for testing purposes, there are options to upgrade to other servies as well: one click & startUp optomizer, anti-theft & disk Cleanup.
I would recommend this to others who are looking for a basic, easy to use set up that does not require a lot from the user.

Disappointed
on August 10, 2017
Posted by: badradio
from ca
I will start out by saying that I've used the first 4k player by Samsung and also more recently, the Xbox 1s for 4K UHD viewing.
The physical size of the unit is surprisingly rather long, but has a very cool looking finish. Does not get too hot, which is very nice. Unfortunately, this LG player only has 2 apps to stream: YouTube & Netflix. For the amount LG is asking for this player, that seems a bit underwhelming.
The picture quality seemed ok, but nothing more than anyone else is producing in 4K BD players. Again, for the price (around $300), this lowered the overall score.
Lastly, the main reason of my score was the noise this player makes. This LG player is plain LOUD when compared to an Xbox 1s. My headphones drowned out the noise, but really hurt the experience. Seems the drive LG used should be replaced asap.

Amazing, thorough review
January 6, 2012
DROID is a trademark that Verizon paid Lucas Arts to use. Droid is not a company and not one that you should be addressing your complaints to, HTC is.
You should do more research into the products you use before writing about a phone you obviously do not know how to use.

Steam Failure
By PMXan from Georgetown, TX
The game itself is great and enjoyable.
The activitation requirement to have Steam is unacceptable and ridiculous. If you could activate without requiring an internet and steam connection, this would be a much more acceptable scenario.

May want to hit up Valve for this rant. Nothing to do with gameplay, story or graphics.

I've read reviews elsewhere that complain that this build runs really loud. Have you experienced that with yours?

I may not have the best of hearing, but the Wave is literally less then 2 ft from me and I can barely hear it humming. Very quiet!
