Nice USB-C Charging & Listen Splitter
on July 10, 2020
Posted by: cjviscito
from Dallas, TX
If you've used one of Belkin's splitters in the past to charge your iPhone and listen to music using the corded ear buds, then there's not much to tell you about this new USB-C variant.
It's great to use to charge my iPad and also use corded headphones to listen to content at the same time. Since I'm working from home and have a lot of virtual calls, this adapter is great for those longer calls. It keeps my iPad Pro's battery charged and I can listen without having to worry about my wireless earbud's battery.
BIG CAVEAT - This IS NOT a USB-C accessory splitter - what I mean by that is that is you can't use this to charge and then use a USB-C accessory, like a thumb drive or input device at the same time.
It's only for charging and streaming audio to a corded headset.

Some Promise, Some Compromise
on June 25, 2020
Posted by: cjviscito
from Dallas, TX
My wife has been looking for a hub that would allow her to connect some of her older USB-A devices to her 2016 13" MacBook Pro with 4 USB-C ports. But, she also has a case on her MacBook to help prevent damage from dents and dings from everyday use.
I thought this would be a good choice and although it has been, for the price - there are some compromises that you will have to be OK with if you go with this. First and foremost, this hub worked for my wife - she was able to charge her MacBook and connect an external hard drive for Time Machine backups and connect her iPad Pro to sync and backup. We also have a DSLR camera and the card reader worked fine as well - the only port she tried but didn't really use routinely was the HDMI port.
The HyperDrive also comes with a leather carrying case for the hub, a USB-C extension cable, and a plastic piece that acts as a magnet to hold the HyperDrive securely to your MacBook. But, with the case that my wife uses, we couldn't use the magnetic piece, so we were resigned to use the hub bare to connect, which lead to some issues.
The HyperDrive depends on this little piece of plastic to help secure it to their MacBook - but with a case, it doesn't work. So the drive sat out a bit from the side of her laptop and caused it to feel shaky. My wife was worried that she would break off the USB-C ports on the hub inside her MacBook, so she only used it when she was at her desk.
If you have a case on your MacBook, the magnet part here won't work for you - but if you use your MacBook bare, then it'll work fine.

Great for On-the-Go Content Creation
on June 16, 2020
Posted by: cjviscito
from Dallas, TX
The new Sony ZV-1 is marketed for folks who create their own video and image content. Since I make work-related videos for my profession on social media channels, I thought grabbing something lightweight and easy to use would make at-home and on-the-go content creation more enjoyable, and for the most part, it has.
The ZV-1 is still your basic design for Sony digital cameras, in fact, going to date myself with this reference, but the UX hasn't really changed all that much from the old "Cybershot" days. From the aspect of picking it up and knowing how to use it, that's great - but when it comes to the software menu, that's a bit of a drawback.
The main selling point of the ZV-1 is the ability to shoot 20 megapixel images and 4K video. I've used it to create several videos and have found the quality to be really good. The outputs are much better than what my smartphone's camera can capture - owning much to the actual zoom ability in the ZV-1's lens. There are other features like facial smoothing and image stabilization that make using the camera on-the-go a nice change of pace. I would say it actually reduced the amount of post-prod work I normally have to do on my videos.
The camera itself comes with a micro-USB cable for transferring data - and also for charging. Guess I'm a bit of a dinosaur, but one of the things I like about my DSLR camera is the battery is removable and chargeable on a separate charging station. The ZV-1 relies solely on being connected to a USB power source, like your PC, to charge. Additionally, there is also a small wind guard attachment to help reduce the ambient white noise from sounds like wind. My videos have been mostly shot indoors, so I can't speak for the ability of the wind guard in outdoor shoots.
I also picked up the Sony Bluetooth grip, which is an extra item and sold separately. It really does make the camera more functional, being able to serve as both a selfie-stick type grip as well as a portable tripod. I don't think I would have felt like I got full value out of the ZV-1 without it.
As I mentioned before, the software and UX is still in need of an update - having to tap over to an uppercase arrow and then tapping "abc" 3 times to get to a "C" and then back again made connecting to a WiFi network with a complicated password a real pain. This camera does support Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity, but when I tried to use WiFi to send images to my PC, I was met with a prompt telling me I had to connect it using the micro-USB cable first. That can be a challenge if you have multiple PCs that you use for creation. I have a MacBook Air for on-the-go, and my iMac at my desk at home - so having to hot swap the cable essentially was a bit cumbersome to me.
The price tag of the ZV-1 means it's not marketed towards the average consumer - this is marketed towards more of a pro user who is serious about creating video and image content. It's nice and small, which make portability a breeze, and it's certainly not the most expensive "content creator" setup I've seen.

Great iPad Pro Keyboard Case Folio
on May 21, 2020
Posted by: cjviscito
from Dallas, TX
I’m actually writing this review using the Logitech Keyboard folio on my iPad Pro 11 Gen 1. The idea of using a keyboard for my iPad wasn’t a decision I made lightly. I’ve always enjoyed using my iPad as a different device from a laptop, but now, working from home due to COVID, I thought it would be a good idea to try it out and I’m honestly glad I did.
First off, my main complaint about this version compared to the Slim Combo Folio for the iPad Pro 10.5 version is this version doesn’t allow the keyboard to detach like the older version. That means this keyboard folio uses Bluetooth instead of the iPad Pro’s Smart Connector. It’s rechargeable using a USB-C cable - but it’s also worth noting that it doesn’t come with one, I guess Logitech assumes you’ll use the USB-C cable that comes with your iPad Pro.
Now, those gripes aside, this keyboard folio is actually a really nice experience. The keys are reasonably spaced apart, and the keyboard itself is backlit. I’ve actually enjoyed using this keyboard to read and respond to emails for work.
The folio uses strong magnets to hold the screen up and in place while you type, and it also serves to activate the keyboard - meaning there’s no power switch to worry about. That’s a pretty nice feature, so I don’t have to worry about accidentally draining the battery.
There’s also a locking flap that uses the magnets to keep the folio closed. It also has room in the flap to cover an Apple Pencil that’s attached to the side in charging mode.
It should be obvious, but any keyboard folio case will add significant weight / bulk to a thin tablet like an iPad Pro. Honestly, I’m OK with that, because the case feels solid and sturdy and I feel like it’s more secure and protected.
It’s also a cheaper alternative to Apple’s new floating keyboard design, which was great. Logitech makes great computer accessories, in fact, I use the Pebble Mouse with my iPad Pro as well and the Craft Keyboard and MX-Vertical Mouse with my iMac at home.
If you are looking for a solid keyboard folio for an iPad Pro 11 Gen 1/Gen 2, then you should consider this Logitech Folio keyboard. It’s less than half the cost of the new fancy Apple one and works great.

Excellent iPad Mouse
on May 12, 2020
Posted by: cjviscito
from Dallas, TX
I never really thought I would find a mouse useful on an iPad. I’ve had several iPads, going back to the iPad 2, which I still have running. When Apple decided to bring mouse support into iPadOS, I thought, “Who’d ever use that?” Turns out, I would - and the Pebble mouse is a fantastic mouse to use on an iPad.
For starters, it’s slim, sleek and easy portable - which is what you’d want with an accessory meant for a tablet. The Pebble has the traditional left / right mouse buttons as well as a scroll wheel.
I’ve been using the Pebble for a few days now with my iPad Pro 11 Gen 1. I’ve actually enjoyed using it. The mouse is also very quiet, no loud clicking sounds. It also works on multiple surfaces without issue, although I mostly use it at my desk.
The only concern I have was a screen I saw in the iPadOS settings that mentioned using this device could interfere with connectivity. Not sure why a Bluetooth device would cause an issue with my iPad, and so far, I haven’t seen anything from a connection performance aspect.
If you use an iPad Pro like a laptop, and have been on the fence about using a mouse, you really should check out the Pebble. It’s made by Logitech, the same brand that I use and trust for my iMac keyboard (Craft) and mouse (MX-Vertical Ergonomic Mouse).

Very Nice Sony Upgrade
on May 10, 2020
Posted by: cjviscito
from Dallas, TX
We had a Sony HTX9000 sound bar system in our bedroom and although we liked it, there were some drawbacks. But I've usually had good experiences with Sony A/V equipment, so when I saw the HT-G700's specs, I thought I'd give it a try and I'm honestly glad I did - bottom line, it's a nice upgrade from our old Sony sound bar.
In this package, you'll get:
* HT-G700 sound bar
* 400w Wireless subwoofer
* Sony A/V Remote with batteries
* HDMI Cable
The sound bar itself sports a 3-channel sound field, which is a nice upgrade from the 2.1 setup we had before. That means there's a dedicated center channel speaker to ensure you get punchy dialog instead of it being muted and divided into the left and right channels. It also comes with Sony's vertical sound and support for Dolby Atmos to create a feeling of sounding coming from all around you. Additional features include:
* Sony's Immersive Audio Enhancement to upscale audio to 7.1.2 channel surround sound
* Voice Mode to enhance those movies with loud bangs and quiet dialog
* 4K HDR 18Gbps passthrough with HDCP 2.3 support
* eARC support for Dolby Atmos supported content
* Defined sound modes tailored to different media like movies, games, and Night Mode
* Bluetooth streaming and wireless TV audio options
The overall design of the sound bar is very sturdy feeling, it doesn't feel overly light or cheap like other sound bars I've tried in the past. There's some decent heft to this bar and the accompanying woofer. The LED display on the unit is minimalist and can also be dimmed if desired, which since this is in our bedroom, we did. The woofer is a decent size and weight also.
The back of the sound bar also has the spots to measure if you want to mount the sound bar on a wall too, so no extra wall mount required, which is nice, although we left it on the top of a entertainment center.
Setup was a breeze, plug in HDMI-ARC to TV and back of sound bar and we were up and running in less than 5 minutes. The sound bar also supports HDMI passthrough, so you can connect a video streaming box, cable box or video game system to sound bar if you're running short on cable or dealing with a wall-mounted TV.
Setup goes as follows:
* Connect the sound bar using the HDMI-ARC option on your TV
* Power on the sound bar
* Plug in the Subwoofer
That's it!
The sound output is much more noticeable than our previous Sony sound bar, and we love it! It works nicely on the TV stand we have in our bedroom. Watching movies makes the bedroom feel like a private mini-theater, so now when my wife is watching Masked Singer or something on our main TV, I can fire up Underworld or Deadpool in the bedroom and it sounds just as good.
Just a head's up - this sound bar is not a "smart" sound bar. There's no digital voice assistant option with this, it's just a great sounding sound bar that offers 3.1 sound, 4k passthrough, Dolby Atmos, in a simple to set up package.
This unit is a great solution for someone looking to add a good sound system for movies without a lot of headaches. At $599.99, it's definitely not the cheapest solution out there - but considering some other sound bars cost that much and don't offer a wireless sub, it's a pretty good price.

Decent Smart Speaker
on April 2, 2020
Posted by: cjviscito
from Dallas, TX
The Marshall Uxbridge is Marshall's latest entry into their growing smart speaker line. If you're just now dipping your toe into the smart speaker market, and are a fan of the classic Marshall design and sound, this might just be the speaker for you. The Uxbridge comes in two flavors - this one available now supports Amazon's Alexa and coming this summer will be a model that supports Google Assistant.
Marshall also makes an accompanying mobile app called Marshall Voice to setup and control features of the speaker.
The overall design of the Uxbridge is immediately familiar to anyone who's seen a Marshall speaker before. It features the Marshall name over a mesh front with "guitar fret" style rocker controls on the top. These rockers control volume, treble and bass levels while one buttons serves as the power / pairing button and another serves to mute Alexa from hearing you. There are also four small lights on the front base of the unit that light up a blueish white when connected and turn red when muted.
The sound this little speaker can push out is impressive - and given the amount of customization you can do using the rockers as well as the Marshall Voice app, you can pretty much find the right balance to suit your usual musical tastes.The Uxbridge also supports the whole-home-audio setup that can work with other AirPlay or Alexa speakers, and can work with other specific Marshall speakers to create a whole-home audio system.
As common with other smart speakers, it also requires a constant connection to power in order to function and also supports Bluetooth and AirPlay for streaming audio. There's also an option to link your Spotify account if that's your service.
So why am I not rating this a 5-star item? It all boils down to limitations that Marshall has now that other smart speakers do not. As a bluetooth speaker, this thing is great - but it's not portable like other premium bluetooth speakers. The sound quality is amazing, but you have to be adjacent to an outlet at all times.
As a smart speaker, the Uxbridge also makes some odd trade-offs. For example, a similarly priced Sonos speaker gets you the option of Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and a whole host of other music streaming services where the Uxbridge will limit you, by device, to either Amazon or Google's platforms. Again, the Uxbridge has awesome sound quality and if you're not already deeply integrated with another premium smart home audio system, then this could be your gateway into a deeper Marshall ecosystem.
I have Marshall products and I love them all - the Tufton is my serious road warrior Bluetooth speaker. My Monitors are my go-to headphones and my Minors are my gym buddies. Again, if you're a Marshall fan, use Spotify, and want to get an Amazon Alexa-powere device that looks and sounds way better than Amazon's own Echo line - then you need to check out the Uxbridge. If you're already immersed in another whole-home, premium smart speaker setup, then your mileage may vary on how useful you find the Uxbridge.

Nearly perfect
on February 7, 2020
Posted by: cjviscito
from Dallas, TX
Since I've started traveling more for work, I thought it was time to invest in a high-end set of headphones. I've always like the design style of B&O headphones, and almost picked up last year's H9i pair. I'm glad I waited because this year's H9, or H9 3rd Generation, is nearly perfect.
In the box, you get the H9's of course, as well as a branded B&O carrying pouch, USB-A to USB-C charging cable, standard 3.5mm aux cable as well as a flight adapter for going wired in-flight.
First off, the new H9's do away with the replaceable battery in last year's H9i's. While this was a bit of a bummer at the start, it quickly was rendered moot by the bigger battery B&O placed in the new H9's. They have a bigger battery versus last year's model, and consequently, better battery life. I was impressed to find that the bigger battery didn't seem to add that much difference in overall design or perception of weight in wearing the headphones. In fact, B&O is advertising these with up to 25 hours of active use, with ANC turned on. I've never reached a full day's worth of listening, but it's nice to know they'll have more than enough juice for those longer flights.
These are also more comfortable than the H9i's. The headband is softer and I've noticed I can wear these for much longer without feeling like my head's being squeezed or the weight pressing down on my head. Since the cups are also covered with a super-soft leather, the only thing I have noticed is that my ears can get a bit warm during periods of extended use.
The right cup sports the touch control mechanism. You can swipe up to toggle between ANC and Transparency mode. Transparency mode is a bit freaky, because it literally sounds like you're not wearing headphones. Another cool feature of toggling back and forth is that whatever I was listening to on my iPhone paused when I turned ANC off and then resumed when I switched back from Transparency mode. You can also move your finger in a circular motion to control volume, which takes a bit of getting used to, as well as swiping left to right to move between tracks.
The left cup sports the Google Assistant button. After you connect your headphones to Google Assistant, you can pretty much do everything you can with Assistant, even if your phone is locked. Again, like music, Google Assistant does not work with Transparency mode turned on. Transparency mode is really all about hearing what's going on around you.
The sound is beyond impressive. ANC (Active Noise Cancelling) is on by default and between movies, music, podcasts, videos, I was able to hear so much detail and definition that I was blown away. Unlike other brands, these seem to come out of the box pretty well balanced, but you can also change that using the BeoPlay app. The app calls them "Listening Modes" and you can attune the sound specifically for what you're doing.
So if I love these things so much, why only 4 stars? It might sound petty, but at $500, I was frustrated that they didn't come with a tougher carrying case. I get that the pouch is soft and most likely made of premium material, but for getting on the flights and hustling around in my backpack, I would've liked a sturdier option. Especially when headphones that cost $100's less come with carrying cases. But rather than let that stop me, I just ended up figuring out a hard-shell storage option on my own because I really love these headphones.

Powerful Portable Projector
on December 31, 2019
Posted by: cjviscito
from Dallas, TX
I've always wanted a projector for a media room, but most of them are so large and require installations that you have to really commit to one. What I like the most about the Epson 100W model is that it's also portable. You can pack it up and take it with you on trips, which is what we've done with ours.
The unit is small, feels solidly put together and has a footprint that's a little bigger than a 2012 Mac mini desktop, albeit much taller. Setting it ups was a breeze. In less than 5 minutes I had it open, fired up and was signing into my Google Play account to try out one of my movies. I ended up setting it up in our garage for a test run. My kids and I watched Avengers: Endgame and it played beautifully. We projected it out onto our garage door.
The laser light system in it makes it to where you can still see the images well in normal lightning conditions. Obviously, with any projector, once we turned off the lights in the garage, the kids felt like they were at the movies. There's so much more detail you can see in a lower light setting with a projector, but this one is also viewable in normal lightning which really surprised me. If you're curious about resolution, this projector maxes out at 1080p HD at 60Hz per the support documentation. I honestly didn't care when we streamed the movie because it was playing perfectly and I also felt like I was back in the theater. Even my wife, who is not a gadget person, came out and watched it with us and was surprised by the quality of the images.
The back cover that houses the input ports and home for the Android TV module pops right off with little effort, but also plugs back in and feels secure. There's also an IR port in the back to control the remote with IR - but the initial setup paired the remote, so I assume it's working over Bluetooth since I never pointed the remote at the IR sensor.
Another aspect of it that I really like is that the Android TV module that came with it could be detached and other HDMI sources could use it. I tested it out with another streaming device I had and it worked like a charm. The projector also has built in speakers that work well enough in our garage, but there's also the option of connecting a Bluetooth speaker to it or running an Aux out line to wired speaker if you have one. I used the Audio Out when we took it on a trip over the holidays and connected it to a speaker and it worked as expected. I haven't tried the Bluetooth option yet, but it's nice to know it's there if I needed it.
The unit comes with 2 remotes as well. One controls the projector and I'm guessing the other one controls the Android TV module in case you wanted to use it with another TV. Since we have our movies in the cloud with MoviesAnywhere, I really didn't see a need to take out the Android TV module, it worked great! I was also able to sign into other streaming services like Hulu and watch streaming content from there as well. If you want to attach a streaming device, you'll also need an HDMI cord since the input in the back of the device is a female port - see my pictures and you'll know what I'm talking about.
If you're curious about dipping your toe into the projector world, you should seriously look at the Epson EF-100W. It's a portable powerhouse that produces great images and decent sound, but the ability to plug in other streaming devices and speakers also means this could power someone's home theater without breaking the 4K bank.

Nice Upgrade from my old 3000 Series
on December 3, 2019
Posted by: cjviscito
from Dallas, TX
I picked this up to replace my older 3000 series. It was getting a little bit older and when I looked at the cost of picking up new blades compared to what I'd get by picking up a new razor, it was a no-brainer.
The biggest draw to this newer version was the rapid charge feature. As a safety precaution, Philips disables the ability to use their razors while they charge. This isn't a problem if you remember to charge them every so often, but if you don't remember to charge them regularly, then it can be a pain.
The new S3212 will give you 60-minutes of shaving off of a single hour of charging, so more than enough to handle my morning shave. It is also safe to use in the shower like my older 3000 series, but with my facial hair, I usually have to shave it dry, otherwise, my beard and mustache hair will stick to my face.
They've also added a newer feature called 5D Pivot & Flex Heads - I've noticed the head is a bit different shape compared to my older 3000 series and so far, it does seem like it's just as comfortable, if not more responsive than my older one.
If you're someone who can use an electric razor and are in the market for a new one, this one is a good deal at less than $100.

Which HDMI cable is the best? Audio Quest,Monster Cable,RocketFish

There's really no difference right now between HDMI cables. With Monster, you're paying for the brand and really nothing else when it comes to HDMI cables.

Best Buy has some cables that are online only and are a great value. No noticable difference between the value cable and a 3' Monster cable that I had.
