Great design, ordinary performer
on October 24, 2016

If you were to look at the specs of this computer and that's it, you wouldn't be too terribly impressed. I would have traded in a slightly smaller HDD for more speed (i.e. solid state drive).
But this is no normal computer. It is a stylish desktop with a built in speaker. It definitely piqued my interest for a living room PC. True to HP's advertisements, this is a desktop you want seen. It has a nice triangle shape with a fabric cover and loud and vibrant speaker built into the tower. While I don't use the speaker in my home set up (sound goes through my receiver) I was actually impressed when I first set it up with a monitor. While it won't beat a nice set of computer speakers and sub, the inclusion of the built in speaker goes in the "pro" column. This would be perfect for a dorm or bedroom where you have limited space.
Another plus for this desktop is the ease of setup. I remember the days when you would order a computer from Gateway and you'd get a power cable, VGA cable for the monitor, speakers and speaker cables, wires for the mouse and wires for the keyboard. Included with this computer is a power cable, wireless keyboard and wireless mouse. That's it. And frankly, that's all you need. I've recommended this desktop to my mother whom is not electronically inclined and hates wires.
It has a good amount of ports, even including a USB c-type port. And I like that the ports are discreet and easy to find. I don't leave my computer on all the time, so I would ahve preferred to have a power button that was larger and a little more accessible (it's a button in the back that is slightly raised from the computer, but difficult to locate with your finger without looking).
My only major gripe is the keyboard and mouse, which are wireless and the wireless connection is built into the computer (vs. having a dongle in your USB port). They are absolutely terrible. I get it, they're included with the computer, but they are cheap. Cheaply made and don't work well. I had to swap out a new keyboard when setting up this computer because of the delays in typing. Now I have a wireless dongle sticking out of my computer that is wasting a port. I'd like to use the connection built into the computer, but I think (I cannot confirm) it only works with HP keyboards and mice.
All in all, if you need a desktop computer for a small room where you can't play loud music (while the speaker is nice, it's not going to blow your next door neighbor away like a true subwoofer would) this is a great option, especially if you fancy the looks, which is honestly, one of the main reasons for buying it. If you don't care what your computer looks like and need to save some money or you need a better performer, you should look elsewhere. But if you buy this computer, make sure you include the purchase of a separate keyboard and mouse, you will be running to the store later to get one if you don't!

Solid performance, but missing some features
on October 24, 2016
Posted by: callmeageeth
from Louisville, KY
I think it's important when reading a review to know what type of phone the reviewer previously used and how they used it. I think whatever phone we have often dictates what we think about our experiences of the next phone. My last phone was the LG V10. I got it in large part because I never had a LG phone and they offered a nice deal with 200 GB memory card and spare battery and charging case. It was a decent phone, nice quality, but I found the battery life pitiful, the fingerprint scanner erratic, and I had major issues with bluetooth (lot of popping sounds when connected to my car and headphones). But it took great pictures and video. What I liked was having 64 GB internal storage and 200 GB SD card. While I utilized Google Photos, I still liked having a hard copy on my phone that I could pull up at any moment (service or not). I also subscribe to Google Music (as you can tell, I'm invested in Google ecosystem) and I liked storing as much music as I could (around 60 GB) in the event I didn't have service when I played music. With that much storage, I never once thought about space on my phone.
Look and Feel
This is a premium phone. I like the smaller size (I've had phablets for a while, and actually like the downsize) and the build quality. It does look jsut like an iPhone, in fact a friend asked me if I got an iPhone. While I'm no fanboy and don't give one iota about the similiarities of Android phones and iPhones and who might have recycled what design or feature, it is something to point out. The back of the phone has a glass portion where the antennaes are and I actually like it once I saw it in person. It also offers some grip as backwards as that may sound. The fingerprint scanner is awesome and works like a charm. I like the feature where you can swipe down on the reader to bring down your notifications. BUT, be weary, I had to adjust how I held the phone because I would accidentally hit it. I like how the power button is texturized, which helps you distinguish between the power button and the volume rocker. I do with those buttons were higher up on the phone, because my thumb naturally rests above those buttons. But given how little you use them when actually using your phone, this wasn't a big deal.
You might have heard about the wedge shape when looking at the profile of this phone. Yes it has one, but it isn't as pronounced as people may suggest or the pictures you see on websites. You really can't tell.
Performance
This is a lightning fast phone. Everything from using Google Assistant to switching between apps, it is silky smooth. I've had no slowdown, no crashes (yet) and I find the battery to be adequate. I mentioned my LG V10 had abysmal battery life that required to carry a spare battery; the Pixel makes it through the day easily, when using the phone moderately (streaming music, navigation to work, Netflix and reading news sites). So I feel confident that I can leave the house for an extending time without wondering if I charged my spare battery.
I don't often listen to a phone's speakers, but I noticed this phone has stereo speakers and they sound decent for what they are. I've had ZERO issues with bluetooth, either connecting or having the pooping noises associated with my V10.
The charging is super fast, like you'd expect.
Software
I can't compare previous stock Android experiences to this one. But I am very familiar with the Google Launcher and Android Nougat is similar to that layout. But it's an adjustment (this holds true for any phone with Nougat operating system). The notification bar is different and while it looks aesthetically pleasing, I find it hard to locate the settings (go from ringer to vibrate as an example) I am used to pulling up quickly. I still don't know how to put my phone on vibrate other than using the volume rocker to turn the volume down all the way. I'm sure there's a setting somewhere, but this is one of the downsides to moving to a new operating system.
I have tried usign the artificial intelligence, Google Assistant, but I can't really figure out the difference between it and Google Now. It's nice to hold down the home button and start talking, but the features in my opinion aren't any different than what's been accessible since the creation of Google Now. I have no doubt that the engineers at Google would prove me wrong, and I'm certain there are good uses for it, they just aren't obvious. I'm willing to bet with more time I will discover it's usefulness.
I do like the long press on an icon that brings up shortcuts. It's similar to the 3D touch in iPhones. It's a quick way to jump into what you're trying to do.
The notification bar is revamped, and I often find it overwhelming. I appreciate being able to type in a text right through the notification bar, or double-tap an email to go straight to it, but it reminds me of my work email inbox and can be overwhelming at times.
Cameras
When it comes to picture quality, my two criteria are 1) how fast can you unlock your phone before taking pictures; and 2) how do the pictures look? This phone excels in both areas. I won't go into details about the camera specifications, you can look at the specs on Best Buy, but I found that it just works. It's fast, fluid, intuitive, easy to use and the pictures are great. My V10 took great pictures, but it took seconds to open up the camera from the lock screen, and the manual controls (while I appreciated having them) were just superflous to me. I'm not a professional photographer and didn't have the time or effort to change any settings when I just wanted to take a good picture.
Limitations
While I think this is an overall great phone, it has some drawbacks. Storage is number one. This has 32 GBs, and while it's nice to have unlimited Google Photos back up storage, I would rather have ample space for my photos and data on my phone, with a backup of the photos in Google Photos, versus keeping the photos in the cloud. While it's true that one rarely needs to have all their pictures on their phone it gives me comfort. And going from having some 260 GB of storage to 32 GB is somewhat difficult. I might be anticipating a problem I won't have, but it's something to point out. If you can afford it, I'd go with the 128 GB model. No wireless charging. Some people may say this is unnecessary, but I like having a wireless pad that you just place your phone on (I had a Qi sticker on the inside of my LG V10). I like having one on my desk at work and nightstand at home. Looks like an iPhone. I like having phones that are different (hence the V10 and its second screen which I love and do miss). This phone, while nice looking, just looks like another candy bar style phone. It doesn't stick out. USB 3.0 C-type isn't a negative in and of itself, but it is an adjustment. I now have two USB 3.0 C-type cables, both of which came in the box, which renders the 20 or so micro USB cables i've collected over the years as useless. So I don't want to say it's a negative when getting the phone because technology progresses and change is good, it's just something you need to keep in mind. I now have to think about whether or not I have a charging cable in my work bag (where I used to keep micro USB cables).
Conclusion
All in all this is a great phone. It takes some getting used to, particularly the software and relearning to a certain degree how you changed settings or accessed information. It's really fast and fluid with virtually no performance issues. Google included two C-type charging cables in the box which was nice, and a nice adapter to transfer data between your old phone and new one. Not necessary since most of my data syncs through Exchange or Google, but I like the thought. My only big concern is the space. If I did it all over again, I'd get the 128 GB version.
Lastly, this phone is not locked. Verizon sells it unlocked with a sim card inside of it. If you find yourself with this phone and someone tells you its for Verizon, you can pop any major carrier sim card in there and it will work.

High build quality, but bland and underperforms
on October 4, 2016
Posted by: callmeageeth
from Louisville, KY
I use a Surface Book at work, which is a blazing fast computer. But I also do quite a bit of work in Excel and the 15 inch screen with separate numeric keypad spoke to me. I needed something that wasn't necessarily blazing fast, but was a bit bigger and could handle basic office tasks (I don't edit videos/photos or play video games on my laptops).
I was very impressed with the build quality of this laptop. While it looks bland, it does have a nice quality about it. The keyboard isn't anything special, but it is nice and has a nice feel to it (I would test it out if that matters to you).
While this laptop has some impressive specs, I was a bit underwhelmed by its speed. I thought it had a lot of Acer bloatware which was causing the problems. I deleted all of that, and other apps I will never use. But that didn't change the performance one bit. I find the computer slow to boot, to connect to Wi-Fi, and to access the hard drive. I must reiterate that I've been spoiled with a Surface Book with better specs, but I expected better in this laptop. The performance was underwhelming and inconsistent.
The screen in my opinion is nice, very sharp and bright, but I could do without the 180 degree hinge. I realize almost every laptop is a 2-in-1 nowadays, but I don't see the utility in having the option; especially with such a big screen. i don't like using it as a tablet when the back of my hands are touching the keyboard. I'm concerned with damaging the keyboard in such situations. But that's personal preference.
I found the touchpad a bit wonky as well. Not terrible by any means, but I found it difficult to be precise. I adjusted the settings to speed up the cursor but it didn't really help.
One big thing I like about the laptop are the ports. I actually like having more ports vs. less, even if that means a heavier machine. I hate carrying extra "dongles" to plug in all of my accessories. This has 2 USB 3.0s, one USB 2.0, USB-C, HDMI out (another big convenient plus to me). I don't like how the volume rocker is on the side, I would rather have a dedicated button on the keyboard (without having to hit the function key).
Battery life seems average. For such a big 15 inch laptop I expected longer battery life, but I'm getting 6 hours of work use out of it (specs on the laptop say 8 hour battery life) so I can't really complain, but I've gotten longer use out of other laptops (which generally have a smaller screen).
At the end of the day, if you need a laptop for general "office" or school purposes, you can't go wrong with this laptop. I don't mean to make it seem like this laptop is from 2007 and is rocking an Intel Celeron processor, but there are faster machines out there. if you plan on doing anything graphic intensive, I'd stay away, but typing Word docs, working in Excel, surfing the web, taking notes and the occasional Netflix will perform just fine. Especially if you want a big screen. But be prepared to get rid of a lot of bloatware and spend a lot of time updating your computer before using it.

Great sound, but difficult fit, HR gimmick
on October 4, 2016
Posted by: callmeageeth
from Louisville, KY
First things first, the sound quality of these earbuds are great. I don't care what people say, Bose continues to deliver topnotch sound quality. My big complaint has to do with the fit of the ear buds while working out. I've tried every tip that comes in the box with little success.
I've used Bose wired headphones earbuds before (for casual use and working out) and really liked the fit of their ear tips, but for whatever reason I couldn't get the SoundSports to stay in while running. I generally sweat a lot (yes, including my ears) and I have to try to jam these ear buds into my ear and wipe the sweat out while I run; which is far from ideal. When I wear these around the house in less strenuous circumstances I have zero difficulties keeping these ear buds in place. But I got them to wear when working out.
This could be a "me" problem, but I just want to forewarn potential buyers that, in my personal opinion, sport or sweat resistant ear buds really vary in their ability to stay in one's ear from person to person.
If you're like me and sweat a lot or haven't had great success using ear buds while working out, I would consider something similar to the PowerBeats wireless that have "hooks" over your ear to prevent them from falling out. I've had better success keeping those in my ears.
Even if you are willing to give ear buds a try or haven't had difficulties with Bose ear tips in the past, I'd save your money and get the non-heart rate model. It's nice to see your heart rate and when compared with my FitBit Charge HR they have similar readings (I have concerns with its accuracy as well) which gives me no reason to doubt its accuracy, but I don't know what to do with the HR data. You can only see it in the Bose Connect app, and I really don't care what my HR is in real time, for me, I'm more concerned with my workout and would rather see my HR post-workout.
This leads me to my next pseudo-complaint, the Bose Connect app. The app is nice, very pleasant look, and easy to use. But for me, it's just another app to have. It does control your music, which is nice, and it connects your Bose devices, but I'd rather have one less app to deal with. Again, my opinion. And it is because you can only get your HR reading in the Bose Connect app that makes it so useless to me (NOTE: I did not check to see if other fitness apps can gather heart rate data from these headphones).
I will say the battery life is normal, not great, but not bad. And I do like the verbal instructions/guides that tells you when your headphones are connected, the battery life and heart rate.
All in all, it's all a matter of personal preference and if ear buds work for you. A big issue is not being able to take these for a test drive without committing to purchase. Kudos to any manufacturer/retailer that can figure that out. Again, like virtually every Bose product I found the sound quality great, but I would stick with the SoundSport "normal;" sans heart rate. One last thing, the inclusion of a carry case is awesome, other companies provide one (Beats comes to mind) but not all and that is a huge plus in my opinion.

Awesome battery life and loud
on October 3, 2016
Posted by: callmeageeth
from Louisville, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
I think this speaker is fantastic. It is durable, loud and not too heavy. The best part is, and the reason I bought it, is the 50 hour battery life. This baby runs for what seems like forever. The controls are simple to use.
If you need a loud speaker for tailgating or parties this is one of the best options (for the price). I've seen other speakers that sound better, but most needed to be plugged in. While I can't affirmatively say nothing better exists, but at least from what Best Buy carries, you won't find better combination of portability, battery life, ease of use, durability in a loudspeaker for this price.
I originally bought it just to tailgate at football games, but now that I have it, I've found a number of good uses for it. I use it all the time.

Nice Keurig Replacement
on September 18, 2016
Posted by: callmeageeth
from Louisville, KY
I never bought a Keurig machine because I didn't like buying expensive pods (and I don't think they taste all that great). I also didn't like wasting a portions of a pot of coffee every day (depending on how many people in my house take some). This machine is a great solution.
This machine isn't too large, and I think it looks stylish. I don't like the all plastic make, feels kind of cheap, but that feels nitpicky
What I didn't like is that it didn't come with travel mug. Not a big deal, but i thought by the packaging that a mug that fit underneath the drip was included. The reason I cared initially was because I didn't think my travel mug would fit underneath the dripper. But what I found was that there was plenty of "head room" for the travel mug I already own. So the issue was negated.
I'm no coffee snob, but I thought this made a good cup of iced and hot coffee. I also like the recipe book. There were many easy to make recipes I wouldn't have thought of making without.
The machine itself is pretty easy to use. It comes with a coffee scoop that attaches to the side of the machine, which is a nice feature, no more digging through your drawer to find it. You just put a scoop (or two) in the included metal filter and that's all you need to do; a large water reservoir holds enough water for a couple large travel mugs. The water tank is super easy to pop off and fill off.
Set up was dead simple. It comes put together, all you need to do is run clean water in the cleaning cycle after removing the tape that hold things together and voila, you're good to go.
I'd definitely recommend reading the quick start guide and keeping it nearby until you memorize how many scoops of coffee you need for the size of the cup you want.
At the end of the day, this is a nice looking, easy to use single server coffee system for those that want to be economical with their coffee. No pods to buy or recycle.

Versatile and Powerful
on August 26, 2016
Posted by: callmeageeth
from Louisville, KY
I haven't used a "new" vacuum in years. I was still holding onto an Electrolux my parents had before I was born. It has a lot of attachments, but it was clunky and they were all separate. The first thing I noticed (and loved) about this vacuum is that all of the accessories/hoses/attachments actually attach to the vacuum so there's no need to dedicate space for them.
The vacuum is pretty easy to put together and I think it looks cool (some may not like the lime green color). It is extremely powerful and not too terribly noisy.
There are a few things to keep in mind, you have to remember to switch a lever to go from using the handheld hose brush to vacuuming the floor. There's also a button to power on the floor brush next to the button to turn the vacuum on. This isn't complicated, and there are labels on the device itself (very useful) but it's something that takes some adjusting to when you first use all of the attachments (again, I'm used to just flipping a switch and everything just turning on). Once you get accustomed to the vacuum and read the instructions, it becomes dead simple to go from vacuuming the floor to using the attachments.
I liked the option of emptying the tank. (Mostly) everything came out without me having to put my hand in it.
My only complaints are the movements of the vacuum and the hose length when using it to vacuum say, your couch.
The vacuum body swivels at an angle from side to side, presumably to take a wider turn, when trying to turn the vacuum while sweeping the floor. I found this a bit jarring (relatively speaking) from using a traditional two wheeled vacuum cleaner. I didn't find the swivel motion very useful (although the vaccum itself moves effortlessly). I just found it difficult navigating turns and pushing the vacuum forward and backwards. It's likely due to muscle memory of my previous vacuum and I'm sure I will adjust going forward.
I also found the hose attachment, while convenient and powerful, to be too short. Once you turn on the hose attachment, it "shrinks" and doesn't give you much room to work with. I'm certain all vacuums with a hose attachment do this because the vacuum is "sucking" air, but I found it difficult to reach far places without having the vaccum right next to what I was trying to vacuum. I don't have stairs, so I am unable to speak on the difficulties of vacuuming them.
All in all this is a great vacuum. I think it's a great value. I like having the brush attachment and narrow wand attachment (I don't know the specific term Bissell uses) attached to the vaccum. It makes it easy to grab one vacuum and have everything you need right there. It is very powerful and gets the job done quickly. It picks up things my old vacuum missed.

Essential for Water

Verified Purchase:Yes
I lost my GoPro despite having this. You should absolutely have this on anytime you're in the water. My only gripe is that it makes the camera bulky and you can't use some attachments (like the head strap mount, which is what I was using thinking it wouldn't fall of my head on the river). But always, always, always use this device when in the water; no matter what. It works great and easy to put on a back door (for the camera)

This is essential for being in the water. I recently lost my GoPro in a river (despite owning this) because I used a different non-floating attachment. This is strictly for handheld use (vs. attaching to something). But it works like a dream, I've used it in the ocean and it definitely keeps your GoPro afloat.

Meet the unrivaled, everyday noise canceling headphone for people who want to keep it simple. Hesh ANC is engineered with just the right amount of added features to make your life a little easier without a lot of additional technology that you might not need.
Do these headphones have a mute button and how long is the battery life if using for office calls?
I don't think there's a dedicated "mute" button on the headphones, I didn't find one, so it will need to be controlled from your phone. I never measured battery life for calls, but I've used them for calls (they sound good) and listened to hours of music over the course of a couple of weeks (of and on, not every single day) before having to recharge them. I feel pretty confident you could go a full day of calls without the battery dying.

Yes it prints immediately. I believe, but am not 100% certain, that if you have a microSD card inserted, it will save a digital copy of the picture you take (and print)

Now introducing the Ninja Professional Plus Food Processor—make food prep easier with its power, intelligence, and versatility.

is there a storage container for the blades with this one or separate?
Unfortunately, there's no storage for the attachments which is a bummer. Obviously there's space in the container for one (where I keep the sharp chopping attachment) and I keep the shredding/slicing disc in a cardboard container that it came with for the packaging.

Can I use this to cut together flour and butter?
Yes you can, with the "dough" attachment that's included

Use the Google Smart Light Starter Kit to control the lights using just your voice. Set up in a snap: just plug in Google Home Mini, screw in the GE C-Life smart light bulb, and download the Google Home app to get started. Then just say "Hey Google" to dim, brighten, turn on and turn off the lights."
Can I use this to turn off my lights while I am away from home? Also, do I get the starter kit and then multiple bulbs or do I need to get a box thing for each room? Thanks so much
Yes, you can turn off your lights from your phone (via Google Home app) when you are away from home. You don't need this starter kit per room unless you want multiple Google Home minis throughout your home (I have several) but obviously the number of smart bulbs (should you want them) will outweigh the number of Google Home minis you need. In other words, one Google Home mini could control all of the smart bulbs you have in your house. You would just need to be within earshot of that one mini when asking Google to turn lights on and off. For me, I keep one Google Home on each floor of my house

Does this ssd works on MacBook Pro
Yes, I installed it in my 2012 Macbook Pro. I would find a SATA cable, plug it in to your Macbook and clone your existing HDD, use a small Phllips Head screw driver to remove the bottom plate, unscrew the mounting bracket, insert the pegs from your old HDD to the new SSD using a torx screw (very small) and put the plate back on and that's it. Very simple and painless process

This Logitech Harmony 915-000194 smart control lets you use your compatible Apple® iPhone®, iPod® touch or iPad® or Android device to control up to 8 components for simple, multifunction use.
Does this remote work with Xbox one?
Yes, sort of, depending on what your asking. The remote itself doesn't control anything but commands to the Logitech Home. But yes, the Logitech Home does turn on my Xbox One S. I've controlled a Blu-Ray before but must admit I haven't tried to navigate the console menu.
