Professional Quality

The first thing I noted about the Hyperice - Hypervolt Bluetooth Percussion Massage Device is that this is a massager of substance. It comes beautifully boxed. The device is well made and the quality shows. The different attachments are also top notch. This is not a cheap toy, but a professional quality device, and it runs like one too.
The 3 speed motor is strong, i mean jackhammer strong. Careful with the speed levels guys, level 3 can be a little too intense.
Now for the down side. There is currently an app for Apple only, so that was disappointing. However there are apps that work pretty well describing muscle groups and how to work them, and what they affect.
I didn't know that working an area in my pecs (such as they are) affected my fingers. Crazy right?!?!
The Hyperice - Hypervolt Bluetooth Percussion Massage Device is worth the cost. I used it after bowling and golfing and I worked the soreness out of my calves and shoulders.
When an Android app is available I will grab it because if the app is anywhere near as well made as the device, its a winner.
Cheers!!

Pretty cool stuff, right? But for some reason the app asked if I were ready to.subscribe at $4.99 per month. Uh,, NO.
Setup was easy. However this is where things took a left turn for me. Navigating the app to use the
Yummly - Smart Meat Thermometer was a bit of a pain. Then even though the base was well within range of the grill, I kept getting error and dropped signal messages. When the unit came back online it was behind the curve, causing my ribeye to be closer to mediumish than medium rare.

The name Marshall in music is second to none, whether its high powered tube guitar amplifiers, Bluetooth speakers or the Marshall - MONITOR II A.N.C. Wireless Noise Cancelling Over-the-Ear Headphones.
These headphones deliver the cleanest and richest sound on the market today. The setup in the app was simple. The headphones are easily adjusted for your personal taste.
The star feature of the Marshall - MONITOR II A.N.C. Wireless Noise Cancelling Over-the-Ear Headphones is the noise canceling feature. My nephews came by to visit and after an hour of the Paw Patrol et al I needed a little personal time. Ah, Jimi Hendrix and then Pink Floyd bliss. The headset not only cancels unwanted sound but delivers the best sound over any others in its class bar none.
The quality of the Marshall - MONITOR II A.N.C. Wireless Noise Cancelling Over-the-Ear Headphones is also second to none.

ERGO Not Ackward

I have arthritis so working behind the keys can be uncomfortable after a while. The Logitech - ERGO K860 Ergonomic Split Bluetooth Keyboard is the first customizable keyboard that actually brings relief.
I had never been comfortable with other Ergonomic keyboards. The felt ackward, not quite right if you know what I mean.
The wrist support is adjustable to the point where the usual stress brought on by long sessions is quelled. The cupped keys are comfortable and secure.
The keys are quiet and the cupped keys make the gentle wave easier to adapt to.
Set up was as easy as all other Logi products, and the quality is superior. I noticed no lag whatsoever and the downloadable software give the user opportunity to customize the board.
Try the Logitech - ERGO K860 Ergonomic Split Bluetooth Keyboard the newest and best ERGO keyboard on the market.
Cheers!

Wanna Sound Like a Pro?

There's a reason so many experts have called the Blue Yeti X Professional Condenser USB Microphone the gold standard of USB Microphones. The first thing you will notice when unboxing is the weight and quality. This is a professional level affordable (when on sale at Best Buy) microphone.
There are 4 different sound modes for different purposes from direct sound to left right separation, omni directional and bi directional which really worked well recording a two person conversation and did a really good job recording my croak--- err singing and playing my Taylor.
The quality of sound is excellent. When used properly, always speak into the FRONT and NOT the top, the sound is rich and full.
Whether you are a gamer, Podcaster, or DJ the Blue Yeti X Professional Condenser USB Microphone will not disappoint. The mic can be adjusted to prevent piquing.
The microphone stands about 11 inches, weighs 2.78 pounds and has the most stable base on the market. The only thing you may wish to add is a POP filter aka windscreen. For podcasting or professional use I highly recommend the imvestment.

Fun With This, You Will Have
on December 2, 2019
Posted by: aved0n
from Palm Bay, FLA USA
OK I'm a little older, I remember seeing Star Wars Epidode 3 when it first came out in the theater. And for as long I've wanted to use a Light Saber. So when I saw that the Star Wars - Lightsaber Academy Interactive Battle Lightsaber offered training by different Jedi Masters on both the light and dark side I grabbed one.
First thing to do is download the app. The app keeps track of your training and with which Master.
The higher you progress the more that's added via the app. More voices. More skill sets. You can train or compete. I left competing to the kids.
If you have a Star Wars fan in your home this is a nice add for under the tree this holiday season.
The only 2 things that I didn't like was that the instructions were a little ambiguous and the 3 AAA batteries weren't included.
Cheers All!!

Setting up the Adidas - FWD-01 Wireless In-Ear Headphones took less than 5 minutes and that included downloading the user friendly app from Google Play Store, and pairing the unit to my cell phone.
The chord is a flat knit and will not tangle. The buttons have a rubbery tactile feel that are easy to locate and use. The center button is multipurpose and is easy to get used to.
With a full charge Adidas boasts up to 16 hours of use, and I believe them. After 6 hours use I am at 80% power. Not bad at all.
4 different sized ear buds ensures a comfortable fit. Comfy but maybe not the most secure at times. With the connecting cord losing a bud isn't an issue.
The sound is good,leaning towards the flat side, but in the app setting the EQ is simple to customize to the users likings.
One thing. I wish the Adidas - FWD-01 Wireless In-Ear Headphones had an indicator to let ya know when you're charging or have a full charge. However that info is available in the app as well.
All in all the Adidas - FWD-01 Wireless In-Ear Headphones are a good value offering long life and better than average sound.
Pretty cool stocking stuffer!!

Adobe Photoshop Elements 2020 & Premiere Elements 2020 has been the hands down winner of digital editing since pretty much the advent of digital photography.
The reason is simple. The package is a wonderland of creativity whose only limits are that of the user. Whether it's simple touchups or color correction or a full blown artistic adventure Adobe Photoshop Elements 2020 & Premiere Elements 2020 does not disappoint. Take your time, watch some of the lessons and be patient. You will be rewarded if you do.
Adobe can be a little overwhelming because it allows so much creative freedom. Will you be able to the next Avedon or Annie Leibovitz? I dunno, with Photoshop 2020 anything is possible.

I'm an owner of the original MX mouse and I've about worn it out over these last 10 years or so. Honestly I couldn't think of a reason to upgrade when the MX was just about perfect for me.
That is till I had the pleasure of using the Logitech - MX Master 3 Wireless Laser Mouse. Logitech has improved exponentially in all areas including comfort. The mouse fits perfectly, almost like a custom fit.
Honestly, this is more mouse than I need for the most part. Nearly all of my precision tasks come in the form of Photoshopping photos and editing sound.
Let me tell ya, the Logitech - MX Master 3 Wireless Laser Mouse shines like a super nova in those areas. I had always been good at both forms of editing, but now my work has stepped up to a whole other level. All I can say is w0w!
I'm going on 2 weeks so far on a full charge and she's still reading full.
The Logitech MX series mouse and keyboards are a good long term investment in your computing needs.

The Logitech website touts Form, Stability and Function for the Logitech - MX Keys Advanced Wireless Illuminated Keyboard, which is a big boast. They weren't lying. This is the keyboard thatakes me wonder why no one's thought of this before?
The cupped keys are the best. I wish I had this while working on papers at UCF! SO COMFORTABLE. And they really do promote precise key strokes.
The whole setup reduced wrist fatigue after longer sessions online or working.
I also like the adaptive back-klit wireless keyboard. Till now to have a back-lit keyboard, I had to stay connected via USB.
The best is the length of the charge this sucker held for me. Using the back light function I got 7 days typing, while averaging 1.5 hours per day.
Should you grab a Logitech - MX Keys Advanced Wireless Illuminated Keyboard?
Uh, Yes! :)

This cover did not work!!! My son dropped his iPhone in the pool and it is ruined!!! I contacted the company and the only thing they will do id replace the cover!!! So he is going to have to pay 500 dollars to replace his iPhone. Maybe this product works most of the time and he just had a defective one but don't pay 80 bucks for something that may not even work and for sure you should not trust that it will!!!!

I Understand
July 7, 2012
I understand your frustration and anger and, forgive me for asking but did you do the one hour submersion test before applying the Lifeproof cover? I didn't think I was going to test mine, assuming that if it is factory fresh it has to be perfect, but I am very glad that I did.
After about 10 minutes I checked my brand new virgin case and lo and behold I noticed a water spot. I pulled it out of my glass checked it, and it was sealed properly, so I called the company who promptly overnight delivered a fresh one, which worked perfectly.
Testing is the key, and once again I am so sorry for your situation. In this economy having to replace an expensive iPhone is an unwelcome expense, but on the bright side there are authorized dealers who can and will repair water damaged phones for a modest price.
Hey man, thats something anyway, right?

I have been a Samsung user for the last 10 years or so, but after a bad experience where the set had to be repaired 3x in the same calendar year, it was time to explore other options.
I was very impressed in the store at the clarity and detail of this model, however when it was delivered I have to say my enthusiasm waned considerably. I had been used to using certain settings on the menu and sub menus but the picture left me flat.
However with a little experimenting and keeping an open mind, I found picture settings that are nothing less than stunning.
**A HINT** in the ADVANCED MENU, lower the GREEN level 2 clicks, in the darker register for a truly neutral picture. Otherwise everything in the darker registers has a slight, but annoying green pall to it.
The UPCONVERSION of the SONY compared to Samsung is night and day, with the Sony taking even the mediocre signal of Brighthouse and enhancing it beyond what the Samsung in the same price range can offer.
All in all I am content, the integration of my Yamaha / Samsung 4K home theater was a dream to set up and the quality is excellent. I was going to use the Sony 4K Blueray but honestly Samsung still has some features I like so why not have the best of both worlds?
All in all I think my entertainment dollar stretched well with this Sony 4K 3D TV.

We bought this as a replacement for a very expensive model that had quit working and unknown to us had a feature that we were able to connect our Wii to instead of having to connect it directly to the TV. Unfortunately this product was not set up for that and we had to connect the Wii directly into the TV which left me with a cord hanging down my wall while all the others were concealed behind the wall. Had I known I would have opted for a more advanced receiver. other than that we are happy with it.
