Comfortable and great microphone pickups
on April 25, 2019
Posted by: redderr
from NY
My rating is between 3-4 stars so a very strong 3.5 stars to a weak 4 stars. I have been using them constantly and can attest that the battery life is truly off the chart. I find after 5 days of 4-8 hours a day that I still have about 25 percent of battery life left!
The controls are easy enough to use and laid out intuitively. The big pluses for me is being able to use any of the smart assistance that are currently out there Siri, etc... I like not being limited to one but you can only pair to one at a time, so a minor quibble. The microphone sensitivity and ANC are really, really good to being the best I have ever experienced, so another plus
But now I like volume and bass, these headphones are a bit lacking in this department. I would have like a bit more power to both the volume level and especially the bass, especially given the price point. But I think Jabra still did a good job overall on comfort, controls, volume and getting so much battery life in a fairly lightweight device. I think battery life is reason for the lower volume/bass power.
A keeper especially if they should go on sale!

Great bass, great light show and waterproof.

Well I tried it out by the pool that just got a new paint job, still chilly outside but the unit survived a submersion for a few minutes, sound could still be heard from it.
The light show is bright and fantastic especially if used with the Sony Fiestable app.
The light show is bright and fantastic especially if used with the Sony Fiestable app.
The bass is off the chart, Bluetooth range is very good but pairing and volume control is a bit problematic. When I pair with my desktop, the desktop volume is cranked to 100 but sound is loud but not loud enough until I use the volume controls on the unit itself. Not a deal breaker but I rather have full volume control from the connected device than from speaker.
Above average sound quality, off the chart bass and fantastic waterproof resistance.

Ok but volume control is off kilter.

The comfort of these headphones is outstanding but...
Only four stars because the controls are awkward and changes require a lot of effort on your part via other devices.

But the volume is way off, you have to be above 75% to begin to hear any low sounds like footsteps and so on. The sound when set high enough is fantastic but I feel something is off. I sent out some inquiries to the vendor and awaiting replies.

Quick setup and great improvement over old modem
on March 15, 2019
Posted by: redderr
from NY
I had to first call my isp to make sure they supported this modem as was not on their list, it was. Setup and activation onto my system and use was a breeze.
The WiFi was as good as my old stand alone WiFi router and my own cable modem it replaced. I did not save any isp fee since I had been using my own cable non WiFi modem fir a few years already.
It was nice to be able to combine my two devices into one streamline box. The lights are bright, but the modem is in an inconspicuous location so not an issue.
The overall ease of setup coupled with the Rick solid WiFi signal is a pleasure to behold.

Durable, good size but the price is a bit much

Reviewing the cable for what it does, it does very well. Great build quality, good length and the ends are built to take abuse to avoid failing.
All this give the cable a solid 5 stars but I must take a star off for the cost. Too many other options on the market that are as durable at half the cost. I would buy again but at half the price.

Comfortable and lightweight, no Bluetooth!

Pretty good headset for everyday use and gaming too. I used these on my gaming systems and on my laptop to be considerate to others in the room.
The sounds quality is quite impressive given the low cost price range, very pleasantly surprised. The large comfy speakers give good sound quality reproduction and nice pops for games with explosions and gun play.

Headphones come with a splitter, good quality build, nice comfort and wire them for extended periods with no complaints.weight and can be used for long periods without any discomfort.
These are wired so no issue with connections but would have been fantastic if Bluetooth option was included.

Easy to use, well built and I love the sleep tracker. The unit is well constructed and the including mounting hardware and concealment covers are great addition to make tidy install.
The sleep tracker and video quality are off the chart. The ability to get real time data on sleep patterns, temperature and humidity are all pluses in our book.

Great, light and quick to setup
on February 18, 2019
Posted by: redderr
from NY
As my review says, the learning curve on the controls take a while. The curve is not steep but the the depth control can be finicky at times. I can setup the unit and have it ready in under a minute but that is once you know what your doing.
The unit is fairly well built and looks to be durable. I have a boat and can not wait to take it out in the deep ocean but for now used in my indoor pool.
The case to store the unit and accessories is nicely built. The tether/WiFi cable is super sturdy and the motor is robust. I do anticipate that the impellers can become clogged if the unit is allowed to drag or skim on sandy pebble filled areas, so be warned.
The pictures and videos in my crystal clear pool were beautiful especially with 4K. The wide angle is pretty good, but please keep in mind that if the water is murky, then all you will get are murky pictures. The lights are bright but murk is murk and colloid particulates wil just refract the the light.
Expect about 1-2 hours of battery life in clear smooth waters, choppy and skimming the bottoms will reduce that. The dive feature is very finicky but I am getting the hang of it. Access helps if you have a pool to work out all your kinks and get familiar with the controls, cameras and lights.
If you know aerial drones, getting 1-2 hours is super fantastic compared to aerial drones
The live streaming feature is particularly engaging because it allows you to immerse yourself in an underwater FPV experience ,just strap on any set of compatible VR smartphone goggles and you’ll soon be swimming with the fishes again if the waters are clear.
The device is fairly expensive but the ability to have device when out on my boat is going to be a pleasure.

Meet Spotlight. A game-changing presentation remote. Spotlight allows you to simply navigate slides and interact with on-screen content from up to 100 feet away. The customizable timer sends vibration alerts directly to hand – and the advanced pointer system allows you to highlight and magnify areas of focus in pixel-perfect detail.

Simple packaging and very easy and quick setup once you download the software. The pointer is extremely slim and lightweight...just what you need from a presentation pointer.
Being able to charge up in a little over a minute to get 3 hours of use with the included USB C cable is wonderful.
Being able to charge up in a little over a minute to get 3 hours of use with the included USB C cable is wonderful.
The pointer itself has very simplified interface, you have only three buttons at your disposal: a large "forward" in the middle; a smaller "back" arrow below it; and a third bullseye button that sits at the top of the slender wand.
Customization is what make this pointer so powerful in my opinion. The functionality of these buttons isn't fixed; you customize the actions they execute using the companion app. So, for example, where a quick press on the main button might move you on to the next slide, a longer hold can be set to launch the magnification feature; a raised hand gesture can trigger changes in volume.
A final neat touch is the haptic feedback, you can configure the Spotlight to vibrate at set times, which could be beneficial to pacing your presentation and your overall timing.
It's compatible with most of the presentation software you're likely to encounter including PowerPoint, Google Slides, Prezi and Apple Keynote.
I give it a solid 5 stars but the price needs to come down a bit for most users like myself to justify the premium price.

By JenJon
This has been the absolute worst electronic purchase ever! I am on my 3rd unit having 2 replacements sent to me from linksys as well as my 2nd range extender (the RE7000) that they have replaced as well. Invested 15-20 hours on the phone with foreign, yet pleasant enough, tech workers. I live in a square, 3,300 sf 2-story and cannot get consistent or far enough coverage. When paired with their extender to take advantage of the mumino technology, the internet fails to open at all on multiple devices, causing us to set up the extender under a different name and losing the purpose of why we bought in 1st place. After being refused to exchange into their new Velop product for all the problems, I ordered the Netgear Orbi yesterday and leaving the linksys brand forever ( I have purchased 9 routers from linksys in my lifetime for personal and rental homes ).

4 out of 5Great Robo Cleaner at a Good Price
By JBCTECH
I've been using robot vacuums for a few years and am a fan. The Samsung - POWERbot R7040 is my first experience with a next-generation model. There are great improvements in this one over my previous, 'bumper-car' versions: 1) Much better normal cleaning 2) option of a powerful turbo-cleaning mode 3) camera-aware movements which reduce the 'bumper-car' approach radically 4) options for manually controlling direction, spot cleaning, and repeat cleaning 5) an app that can control it from anywhere (and gives a diagram of where it went after a cycle) 6) a remote controller that can control it from anywhere in the home and manually direct it's path 7) a much more accessible, top-loading dirt collector that is easy to empty and clean.
It was very easy to set up and start in auto mode. For me, dialing in the added features took some time and trial and error. Better instructions on these features would be a big help. For instance, in manual mode, I would click the directional arrow and it would stop but not move in the desired direction. It took awhile to discover that it wasn't just a matter of clicking, but you have to click and hold the arrows in the direction you want it to go (duh). Once I discovered this, it worked very well (though the sensitivities of manually controlling it are best left for directing it into an adjoining room when you're in a hurry for it to find it's way there - and not in the mood to carry it). I'm also not yet clear on how well the Spot function works. This is too early of a review to address that.
All-in-all I'm very pleased with the way the POWERBot 7040 works. It is powerful, smart, simple and affordable!

Where is the map? The remote from anywhere?
June 17, 2017
In my use, the remote has about about a four foot range, even the manual verifies this.
I have used the app, where is the map of where it cleaned? I used the Android app.
The bumper car still lives in this unit, 4 foot by 30 foot hall, and my unit bounces off the side walls.
Manually controlling direction again limited by a four foot range of the remote.
