Listen to music all day with these JLab JBuds Pro earbuds. The adjustable tip placement provided by the three gel tip sizes delivers comfortable wear, while the two Cush Fins offer a deeper sound-sealing fit. The 10mm titanium drivers of these JLab JBuds Pro earbuds produce high-quality audio for a dynamic listening experience.

Value-oriented BT buds... Audio Quality is OK...
on July 15, 2017
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
from Cincinnati, OH
These buds prove that JLAB is trying to get their hat in a VERY crowded ring... There must be dozens of BT headphones to choose from on my every visit to Best Buy - A few new every time. These are certainly aiming for the entry of this market at their price point, and for the entry level, they're not bad.
They are light, seem to be well made (enough). but the audio quality is EXTREMELY tinny... No bass to speak of, despite the appearance of large drivers that MIGHT just be industrial design cues rather than actual engineered drivers for full sound. The cables are also very THIN which makes for light, un-noticeable use (which most users prefer) but the cords being so soft and thin also lead to easy crimping - Just pulling the ties off of them when opening from new put a permanent crimp in one part of the cable.
Battery life is VERY good, as I was able to charge these once and user them for an entire weekend of listening for a few hours a day and a few miles of walking in addition. These were extremely comfortable and light during my brisk walk, and should work well for running or gym workouts also.
All in all, if you're looking for sub-$50 wireless buds, these are a good choice, but investing more WILL get you much more from the competition. These will NOT compete with the likes of Jabra, Plantronics, Beats, or JBL on audio quality but you pay MUCH more for this portability and if deep music isn't your taste, these will satisfy you with good battery life and easy storage/ comfortable use.
JLAB seems to be finding their place as a value-oriented "good enough" producer of audio accessories. I've had very BAD products from them and VERY GOOD ones. These are closer to the GOOD side for me!

Toss this waterproof LifeProof AQUAPHONICS speaker in the pool and watch it float. The crisp audio doesn't stop for snow, dirt or ice, and this Bluetooth-enabled speaker can withstand a drop from 1.2m. The battery of this LifeProof AQUAPHONICS speaker keeps going for 15 hours, and it charges your phone while it's playing.

Rugged, Great sound, Excellent Design
on June 26, 2017
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
from Cincinnati, OH
I knew when I got my AQ11 that it was going to be a great device. Immediately when opening the package I could tell this was a cool design and not just because of the Lifeproof-usual material and ruggedness, but also for the fact that this thing is a cool design - Handle/Grips on four corners, and its the perfect "boom box" size.
This thing has a GREAT compartment for USB or Stereo AUX cable and phone storage that's WATERPROOF... This thing will ROCK at the beach or the pool - And keep your phone or iPod safe...
The speaker also features audio controls that use AVRCP over Bluetooth and work when hard wired. All of the controls are rubber-coated and sealed. The ports on the device for charging or AUX-IN that aren't part of the sealed phone compartment have their own sealed door that keeps water out.
This speaker even tolerated my "throw around the backyard" test of rugged devices and didn't even scratch! It hit the concrete and dug into the dirt and wiped clean!

Listen to music hands-free with this LG wireless headset. It lets you answer or ignore a call with voice commands, and the wireless earbuds charge when they're resting inside the neckband, ensuring they're ready for use. The neckband of this LG wireless headset provides vibration alerts for incoming calls and texts, so you'll never miss a message.

The TONE series comes into the 21st century!
on June 14, 2017
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
I've been an avid collector of bluetooth audio devices since the first A2DP devices came onto the market over 10 years ago. I've had the best, and the cheap disposable stuff. One thing that I never jumped on due to general unimpressed feedback from friends and my own tinkering with their own units, was LG's TONE series. I just didn't get how someone could comfortably wear that neckband and dangle those little buds by little cables and comfortably do anything (or be seen in public wearing such a thing).
But NOW with the opportunity to examine the TONE Free model, I'm a convert! The band fits nicely into my shirt collar discreetly (I have a pretty large neck) and the buds, which are now independently wireless and charge inside the neckband, pop out easily and are easily returned to the neckband when no longer needed.
The wireless buds themselves are a bit of a new design. I like the way they snap-in to the neckband, but they have a SLIGHTLY awkward shape for my particular ear. They're expected to be sort of "twisted" into your ear canal and outer ear space for a snug fit. I got a good seal and a snug fit, despite my discomfort at first with doing this, and despite the small appearance of the ear plugs, where I usually demand a much larger style. These had no problems with seal and experienced audio quality based on a good seal.
On to audio quality itself - When I first paired the unit(s) I struggled with the Master vs others scenario where you can separately pair each earbud to different audio sources for monaural use. As a result, I got choppy, disconnected audio from both sides once I tried sending a stereo signal to both. Starting over and pairing the Master bluetooth LE identity cleared this up, Ive since been impressed with both spoken word and musical quality, though those that prefer hard bass may not find these satisfying like PowerBeats or the like... I would describe the audio as more "real" than "deep"... Still plenty of bass to make rock sound full and voices to sound live... Very good tuning just not for everyone as is the case with most in-ear solutions... Excellent volume even on airplanes and in loud public areas, again likely due to the excellent seal of the devices.
Overall these are my first TONEs but not my last if this quality level and industrial design continues to evolve. My friends are now jealous that they didn't wait for the fully wireless versions and I can finally take these anywhere with all day access under my collar for a quick call or a discreet musical escape!

Replace the keyboard of your Microsoft Surface Pro 7, 6, 5 or 4 with this silver Brydge keyboard. It conveniently lets you open the screen at your preferred viewing angle without a kickstand, and its backlit keys increase visibility in low light working environments. This Brydge keyboard is lightweight, so it doesn't add extra bulk to your device.

Good keyboard option - Less interesting than OEM
on June 14, 2017
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
This keyboard does what it intends to do well. Its got good key travel and a decent touchpad, but for its size and relative bulk, I just wish it did something else! If you're looking for a way to extend the functionality of your Surface Pro tablet into a lap-capable laptop, this thing works great. Its capable of supporting the Surface Pro 3, Surface Pro 4, AND the newly announced 2017 Surface Pro tablets... It has great backlighting and excellent battery life.
The keyboard, as mentioned, does add significant bulk to the tablet and honestly, without it augmenting power or adding LTE or storage to the device, I don't see the benefit (besides lap-ability) vs the native Microsoft offering. If this thing was a hotspot too and an extended battery for the Surface Pro that would be amazing!
Even so, its a good product for what it claims to do. Simple and well designed with premium materials. Not much more you could ask for, but if you want to eschew the bulk of it, Microsoft's own type cover with fingerprint reader adds a security feature and will seem more like a tablet cover for tabletop typing use cases.

Keep your SoundLink Revolve or Revolve+ Bluetooth speaker charged and ready to go, with the SoundLink Revolve charging dock. It’s a convenient home base for your speaker, and you can play your music while it charges. Just plug the wall charger included with your speaker into the cradle. Available in Black.

Hefty portable speaker with Bose quality sound!
on April 25, 2017
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
The BOSE charging cradle for the Soundlink Revolve is a must-have to truly enjoy the unit. Sturdy, slightly rubberized material feel with enough heft to hold the speaker it charges steady, while also being designed with the right cable routing to hide the plug and cord providing the juice.
In my SoundLink Revolve review, I note that one of the ONLY critical flaws of the Revolve is the presence of MicroUSB-Type B connections which are hard to keep readily available on my desk where I have run many a Type-C connector. Having a charging cradle that bonds with the device as well as this one means that when the speaker and I return from our adventures, we just dock it and forget it. While the dock's connector is still MicroUSB-B, its permanence on my desk means that I can treat it like any other AC-connected device without the cable wrestling!.
All in all solid, functionally superb with the docking connector that only allows special -footed Bose speakers t attached and charge at 1A as far as I can ascertain. A more powerful USB charger might help, but we're still limited by Type B 2.0 charging specs here.

Deep. Loud. And immersive, too. The SoundLink Revolve Portable Bluetooth speaker delivers true 360° sound for consistent, uniform coverage. Place it in the center of the room to give everyone the same experience. Or set it near a wall so sound radiates and reflects. This wireless speaker is durable, water-resistant and easy to grab and go - with a rechargeable battery that plays up to 12 hours.

Hefty portable speaker with Bose quality sound!
on April 25, 2017
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
The new Soundlink Revolve was worth every minute of the wait! This little guy is very compact, with a slightly conical, beer can shape, and while small in stature, can fill a room as well as its larger Soundlink 3 brethren. I'm coming from a Jabra Solemate and several smaller waterproof Anker and iHome speakers, and this is definitely the best sounding of my bunch as it relates to clear, rich, LOUD sound!
This thing is also made with some premium body materials. The Revolve seems to be constructed from some type of Magnesium/Aluminum core body with a top-cap control panel that is rubberized and seems quite durable. Some very durable and textured polycarbonates bring up the base, making this a seemingly rugged device, yet upscale enough in appearance that I'd wished they included a carry bag/protector case of some kind. Knowing BOSE that will come along as a pricey accessory just in time for back-to-school or the holiday shopping season!
The volume range is excellent. I took some time to get this review in so that I could try the speaker as the sole background music provider at a few spring family functions, including a kids party where princess movie soundtracks easily filled our party of 100 and lasted way longer than the 4 hour party.People could even hear the songs clearly over the chatter of our party room.
I really don't have any complaints, other than the lack of protective gear and the relative sensitivity to scratches and dings the body seems to have due to the premium materials, and one other thing that we shouldn't even be talking about in 2017 when it comes to premium brands - The USB connector!
Why, BOSE, why! Why did you put MicroUSB on this new flagship portable device instead of the now-almost-standard USB Type C! This device isn't particularly thin or small where the Type C port would cost you form over function, and these kinds of new portable devices should ALL be standardizing on the new connector, particularly those that were developed so recently and are being released as a new form factor and new model in 2017. If this had Type-C connectivity for charging/updates/etc. It would be an easy 5-star device. Since a charging cradle is offered this is a lesser issue, but it still bothers me to see those tiny, one-way, fault-ridden ports on modern, premium devices such as this.

Typical Gen-jump for Dyson. Small Improvements.
on March 20, 2017
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
The 2017 Dyson Ball "Animal 2" model boasts a few small improvements for this year - Namely a newer color scheme to align it with the latest in Dyson design language (more use of the "pewter/dark metal" finish) and small functionality improvements.
I am upgrading from a DC40/AllFloors model and this new unit has a much more robust beater bar and floor head, but assembles and functions EXACTLY the same way. Even cleaning/disassembly is the exact same process with the exact same construction quality. There are a few areas of all the Dyson uprights that concern me, and this new Animal 2 unit is no different:
- The change from upright/storage/beater disengaged mode to lowered and operating on floors is still a rough transition that is evoked manually by pulling down on the handle "tipping" the upright arm backward, releasing a clack latch mechanism and allowing a rocking valve to engage with the main brush head. On our DC40, which was purchased refurbished, we always chocked this up to a defect/small annoyance in that model's design, but with this brand new vacuum exhibiting the same we have come to realize its a "feature" not a "fault" for the Dyson. NOTE: This is not something that gets worse over time - In 2 years of other Dyson ownership, its never gotten worse or caused a functional problem with the vacuum.
Under the capture tank, there is a service door where clogs/jams can be cleared - Its a small hinged clear door (allowing any jams/clogs to be seen before opening) - The door has the weakest hinge I've ever seen on a product in this price range! I've broken and re-purchased the part for my older Dyson many times, and this new one has the EXACT SAME FLIMSY PART!! Ugh!
On that note, its important to understand that there were SOME improvements this year:
- The tube connection to the tank/cylinder is much improved and seems to provide a better seal than before.
- The upper wand is color-matched to the upper handle of the vacuum, giving a more integrated appearance - The old wand was colored RED which didn't match anything on the vacuum.
Dyson's overall quality, despite my gripes above and a general creaky-ness to the body due to the use of hard, shiny plastics and unusual mechanisms to facilitate movement of parts, is good. While these devices feel creaky and somewhat cheap, most of this is done to make these vacuums extremely lightweight which they are for their size, and there are some very ingenious mechanical innovations.
This new vacuum also seems to have a stronger suction and quieter operation - Since I'm coming from a 40-series device to a 60-series, some of these differences might be related to the model nuances.
Let me be clear. This is a premium vacuum cleaner with great accessories and powerful cleaning capabilities. If Dyson can fortify the little things we would have an obvious choice on the market... Its already in a class by itself for power, weight, serviceability (both operational AND repair), I would still highly recommend but the older models will do just as well if you don't mind the older color styling.

Finally - Fully wireless earbuds that work!
on February 19, 2017
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
from Cincinnati, OH
Leave it to Apple to be the ones to crack the formula for getting fully-wireless earbuds just right.
These AirPods are the perfect size and the charging/storage case is a brilliant, compact, sturdy design that THANKFULLY uses Lightning instead of MicroUSB to change itself. This makes its obvious integration into my Apple portfolio of devices that much easier and I'm annoyed that the latest BEATS phones don't align to this Apple standard (Not even the new 3rd generation devices with the W1 chip they share in common with the AirPods here).
Besides storing and charging these have the EXACT same comfort profile of the EarPods that have come with every iPhone since the iPhone 4s (I think) - Great fit for most ears, and good/fair isolation, with EXCELLENT tonal range for their size and price.
The battery life is also excellent, both for single-session and for entire multi-day business trips using one fully charged case. I struggle to find a way to get these to disconnect or cut out until their battery reaches critical state.
One of the intrinsic values for me (as a business person) is the ability to just use one of the Pods for bluetooth calling and conferencing using Skype for Business and/or other UCS solutions that I work with frequently. I was able to successfully and consistently use all major services (including redirected calls from an iPhone to a Mac, and native iPhone telephony calls) without issue.
These are one of the few products that I would fully reccomend with no insight as to an improvement or change I'd like to make. Apple nailsd this one.

Joins the 3-node party at par - Outshoots others!
on January 12, 2017
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
This WiFi system is very much like my previous reviews of Google WiFi and other such node-based systems.
Great unboxing, simple packaging with everything you need to connect to an upstream modem over Ethernet, and the three power cords and the three small towers that act as the hubs.
As with competing systems, the Velop comes in a 3-pack and features power and uplink/downlink Ethernet connections. One of the cool things about the Linksys set was that there were reset and power switches on each node device. I did notice that these use proprietary Linksys AC Adapter plugs instead of the much more welcome USB Type C of some competitors.
All in all I noticed excellent coverage of my newer home of approx. 2500 sqft. Where the complexity of the home's layout and the far end location of the office and modem make this house too much for any single router configuration. This was the first of the node systems where I saw consistently high speeds at every far corner of the home regardless of distance from, or which, node I was connecting with.
I also liked the fact that with Linksys, device priority (the only thing closely resembling QoS in the admin interface) could be assigned to up to 3 devices instead of the usual 1. This allows for all of my work devices to be a priority by day, or maybe our XBox or AppleTV to be a singular priority when needed by the family at night while other downloads and activity occurs.
The only downside I found which isn't specific to this attempt at the app-enabled, IoT inspired, multi-node WiFi game is the mobile app's lack of options or customizations. With Linksys, you don't get to give custom names to your nodes, nor can you do things like specify the internal network subnet. It's 192.168.1.xxx for everyone, which while not a big deal, is a security risk if someone gets on your network and wants to find key end points. My guess is the default IP range they'll try is the one you get here.
The only other complaint and this one is common to the format also is the lack of Ethernet ports to build out a local network in the primary room of the modem and initial hub. I almost wish these systems came with a traditional 4-5 port router with these nodes as extenders instead of all the devices looking alike, which, if you need more ports, now requires a third device in a 5-port switch or the like.
I'm not knocking the core functionality here. Simple. Strong. Fast. Elegant in the home. Just about perfect. I'll go online and begin researching the nerd stuff.

The Great Missing Adapter!!!
on January 12, 2017
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
I was totally OK with Apple's removal of the 3.5mm audio jack as this makes for better water resistance and less points of failure on the product. Bluetooth/A2DP audio is pretty good now too but for professional applications (or those audiophiles out there that are professional listeners, you still need at least a wired Lightning option.
This Adapter/splitter was smaller than it seemed in packaging and has excellent tensile strength while maintaining flexibility at the cord. The allowed plug scenarios are clear on the getting started sheet included and getting up and running took seconds. Only two minor gripes that don't affect the rating:
- The splitter should be able to work to drive two headphones via lightning but instead only works for one headphone, one power cord in either jack. There is no competing solution today but it is worth noting that there are use cases for a splitter as well and that would further justify the cost and bag space.
- There should be a version of this that offers old school analog 3.5mm and a lightning charge pass-through. That would be a useful Adapter as well until more Lightning-based high end headphones are available. Adapters on adapters just isn't cutting it.
Otherwise it's fit for purpose and works well

Reliability meets modern multitasking with the HP DeskJet Plus 4155 all-in-one printer. Designed to save you time, this all-in-one printer helps you quickly tackle print, scan, and copy jobs with the 35-page automatic document feeder. Send secure faxes from virtually anywhere with your smartphone. With HP Instant Ink, this wireless printer automatically orders ink and delivers it straight to your door with up to 50% savings on ink (subscription required). Get better range and fast, reliable connections using dual-band Wi-Fi with self-reset. Set up your color printer in a few easy steps, then connect, and print from any device using the HP Smart app. The HP Smart app also lets you scan and share your documents to Dropbox, Google Drive, e-mail, or the cloud.
 

How much are the cartridges and if you don’t print more than 3 or 4 times a month do they dry out and need replaced?

Your best bet with the newer HP models that support it, is to go with the Instant Ink subscription - That way you're covered on ink as long as you're a subscriber and you're going to get your value out of the cartridges even if you don't print a lot.

The current (estimated) price of the #67 cartridges are as follows - These are for standard capacity, not XL, and not XXL like you get with Instant Ink:

Black: $16
Tri-color: $17
Total, that's $33 per set. If you subscribe to Instant Ink, which is only $2.99 for 1 month and 50 printed pages, you're only going to spend $36/year. With this program, if your ink dries out from non-use, they send you fresh cartridges. You're literally guaranteeing yourself at-the-ready ink for your printer for just a few dollars more than ONE set of cartridges cost. Plus, the cartridges they send you are EXTRA HIGH CAPACITY so you're going to get a lot of printing out of each set. It really is a tremendous value.

Will this printer connect to a Chromebook?

My Google Pixelbook Go and Samsung Galaxy Chromebooks saw this as an available printer on the WiFi Network. I was able to print basic documents no problem. I did not attempt to scan with it via the Web interface for scanning, and I did not attempt any advanced photo printing as those require software that isn't made for ChromeOS.

I have a hp 4500 now. how does this 4155 compare to the one I presently have

There are several models with the designation "4500" - If your printer still works and you're looking to upgrade, its best not to get hung up on model numbers and shop for the features you're looking for. If you current model meets your needs, I don't think this will be an upgrade by any stretch.

The big standout modern features of this 4155 are as follows:

- Low Price
- Instant Ink subscription compatibility
- Wireless printing and scanning for desktop and mobile
- Apple AirPrint Compatibility

is this printer compatible with a hp envy x360

Yes! The ENVY line of laptops/2-in-1 convertibles are just Windows 10 devices, so they work great with all modern HP printers - There is an ENVY line of printers as well that are HP's higher-end line for home use, but there's no need to match them up, as ENVY is just a feature-level statement. You should have no trouble getting this to work with Windows 10 on your ENVY x360 laptop.

will this printer be compatible and be recognized by the new Microsoft Edge? New Edge does not recognize my current HP 1112 printer.

Microsoft Edge doesn't dictate what printers it uses. Windows 10 does. This printer worked fine in my evaluation while using Windows 10 (Spring 2020 update) with the new Microsoft Edge. No issues. I can't speak to your previous device, but I would question whether it is compatible with Windows 10 at all.

Does razor come travel case?

No it does not. Its a must-have though, since the guards for the trimmer blade are separate parts, and the device has a hefty charger also.

I am having a difficult time syncing my two headphones together. I can only use one side at a time, is this how they work or can I fix this issue?

I experienced the same problem.Seems to be quality issues with the "true wireless" setup. Cheaper headphones like these tend to have stereo/sync issues.

The best thing I can advise is to put them both into the charging case and fully charge the set. Then put them both into your ears before connecting your device.
