The convenience of wired and freedom of wireless
on August 2, 2017
Posted by: BravoMan
from Sacramento, CA
Sometimes the most important piece of equipment for a computer is not the hardware that goes into it, but the hardware used to interact with it. This G703 Wireless Gaming Mouse by Logitech provide extensive flexibility and can be utilized in a variety of environments and presenting a sleek and modern design. The left and right sides of the mouse are coated with a rubberized texture which helps to keep the mouse in your hand even when used on non-flat surfaces or upside down if you really needed to. Placing your hand on top of the mouse feels normal and comfortable for those accustomed to these types of mice.
Inside the box, you will find your typical accessories, such as a USB cable, USB adapter, USB receiver, and Logitech branded 10g weight that is used to balance the mouse after you take it out of the box. The USB adapter is a microUSB to Female USB-A which connects to the USB charging cable and can be used as an extension cable for the USB receiver when it is plugged into the adapter. If you need to recharge the mouse, simply disconnect the USB adapter attached to the USB cable and connect the cable to the front of the mouse. Minimal effort required and there is no need to stop doing whatever you’re doing to recharge your mouse, since the mouse is now a wired one.
The mouse is Plug and Play and does not require any specific drivers if you’re using Windows 10 and most likely will perform the same on other Windows-based operating systems. It only takes a minute or so after connecting the wireless receiver before the mouse can start functioning properly. Out of the box, the battery within the mouse is about 50% charged and with several days’ worth of use so far, I have not had the need to recharge it.
Installing and using the optional Logitech Gaming Software allows for access to additional features of the G703 Wireless Mouse as well as other Logitech devices. These include controlling the LED lighting of both the Logo and the Scroll Wheel/Middle Mouse Button, programming the various keys on the mouse, adjust the DPI to control how quickly or slowly the cursor moves, battery status, and so forth.
Overall, the Logitech G703 Wireless Gaming Mouse is a great accessory for anyone looking for a unique wireless mouse to use, whether it’s for gaming or just basic general use. With the versatility of being both a wireless and wired mouse, means that you can keep on doing what you’re doing without the need to stop and recharge.

Easy to use and carry without a jumble of cables
on July 21, 2017
Posted by: BravoMan
from Sacramento, CA
These things are so easy to use and carry that you tend to forget that it is there until you need it. Everything from the presentation of the Neckband as you open the box to connecting them to your phone and placing them around your neck is so simple. Granted, I did have a little bit of trouble wrapping the cable for my headphones onto the JLab Neckband, but after getting that figured out, it was smooth sailing.
One of the unique features of this Bluetooth Neckband is the ability to use any headset that has a 3.5mm connector to attach to the JLab Neckband. So if you have a preferred set of headphones like a style that loops over your ears, you can use them with this Bluetooth Neckband. When you turn them on and off, you’re greeted with a friendly female voice letting you know that they are on and connected or when they are turning off. Which is in my opinion better than hearing a bunch of beeping noises.
Recently, I took a trip down to Los Angeles and decided to fly instead of doing the drive and to make things easier for me, I have TSA Pre which allows me to avoid the full body scanner and just pass through a metal detector. Long story short, I left my JLab Neckband around my neck, but underneath my collar of my shirt before going through the metal detector and they didn't set it off. Granted, the headphones that I use with the JLab aren't the original ones that came with it, but that's just another convenience of having these JLab Neckband, especially if you're in a rush to get somewhere or someplace.
Overall, a great accessory to have for anyone looking to listen to music on the go while not worrying about cables. You can also have phone conversations, but just keep in mind that if you place the JLab Neckband underneath your collar, you will have to speak up so that the other end can hear you.

Great for listening to music for hours on end
on June 21, 2017
Posted by: BravoMan
from Sacramento, CA
When it comes to listening to music or pretty much any other form of audio, you have loads of choices to choose from. But nothing beats having the freedom of wireless and not having to worry about a cable getting tangled up with your person or your other stuff. And it helps to have some style to go with it
These ATH-SR6BT Wireless Headphones by Audio-Technica provide a sleek and comfortable design for extended use. They come with a carrying bag (doesn't provide much padding if you're carrying these headphones in a backpack or something similar while in the bag), USB charging cable, an audio cable to connect the headphones to another device via a 3.5mm jack, and not much else.
The battery on these headphones are amazing and I have yet to charge these headphones since I received them about a month ago with intermittent use. I have to charge my cell phone more often than these headphones. So these headphones will work great for those people that need music to be playing for hours on end and not having to worry about charging them.
The two issues I have with these headphones might just be related to my specific set. When I first received the headphones, I was having trouble using the NFC interface to tap them with my phone and connect. After that failed, I tried connecting them via Bluetooth on my mobile device and that proved challenging as well. Eventually I was able to connect the headphones to my phone and that was the end of it.
The other issue I have with these headphones is the way they are stored. When the headphones are in use, they are locked into place and the only way that they can be adjusted for storage is by pressing a button on either side of the headphone which allows for that specific side to fold. The thing is, if you're in a hurry, you might accidentally pinch your finger in between the headphone and the rest of the frame. For some people, the locking mechanism might be nice, but I find this to be annoying.
Overall, the long lasting battery and the sleek design that these ATH-SR6BT Wireless Headphones provide, make a great addition for anyone looking for long lasting, wireless headphones.

Simple hair trimmer without all the extras
on June 5, 2017
Posted by: BravoMan
from Sacramento, CA
The Wet/Dry Beard and Hair Trimmer by Panasonic makes the job of cutting hair so easy and without the need of multiple accessories to get the job done. This trimmer works best for larger areas of hair such as a beard, chest hair, and whatnot. Trimming down a mustache on the other hand with this trimmer is not as easy.
Besides that small limitation for trimming down smaller areas of hair, would be the fact that this trimmer cannot be used while it's being charged. The charger that comes with the trimmer is like a cradle that connects directly to a wall socket and you can connect the trimmer on top of it. This can also make using any other nearby wall sockets unusable with the cradle style charger connected.
Overall, if you're looking for a simple, easy to use, cordless trimmer, this would be ideal for you.

EXTRA Bass with the touch of a button
on April 11, 2017
Posted by: BravoMan
from Sacramento, CA
The Sony XB30 Bluetooth Speaker provides amazing lighting to go with any sort of music that you're playing, provides a small and portable design, making it super easy to be taken anywhere (even near water, a little water won't hurt this speaker), and the battery power to keep the music going all night (or day) long. The sound is amazing and if you need an extra kick up in Bass, all you have to do is hit the EXTRA Bass button on the far left of the speaker. Simple, easy, and doesn't distract you from doing whatever you're already doing.
Connecting to the speaker is easy, you can either connect via Bluetooth or if you prefer, make sure you have NFC (Near Field Communication) turned on for your device and just bring the device and speaker close to one another and bam, you're connected and ready to play music or whatever audio you want to play. The speaker can be connected to smartphones, tablets, computers, and pretty much everything else with Bluetooth connectivity. You can even connect up to 10 other Sony XB30 Bluetooth Speakers together, creating a Party Chain of Sony XB30 Bluetooth Speakers. Or make it simple and connect another Sony XB30 Bluetooth Speaker for wider stereo sound. Or if you want to skip (or don't have Bluetooth or NFC) connecting wirelessly, you can always connect a 3.5mm cable into the AUX port in the back of the speaker.
To further customize your Sony XB30 Bluetooth Speaker, you can install the Sony companion app that can be installed on your device so you can control more features and settings on the speaker. You can turn off or change the mood lighting used by the speaker, you can change the timer for when the speaker turns off on its own after being inactive for a certain period of time, and you can even turn the speaker off with the companion app if you're not near the speaker.

Great for beginners of Photo and Video Editing
on January 15, 2017
Posted by: BravoMan
from Sacramento, CA
Gets the job done for those looking for some extra tools to edit photos and videos. Initial installation took a bit longer than expected, both Photoshop and Premiere Elements came on their own installation disc. But after getting them installed and updated, getting started on a project was easy. The interface on both applications is intuitive and makes the whole editing process simple for both amateurs, novices, and even people that already have working knowledge of Photoshop and Premiere.
Some of the key functions are essentially automated (users don't have to know a lot about colors, black/white balance, saturation, and so forth, so all you would have to do is point and click to get an end result. Similar to how you might end photos or videos on a mobile device, just tap on an option and the application will do it for you. People can now worry less about learning how to work the product and more about getting their projects completed.

Multipurpose trimmer to get the job done
on December 28, 2016
Posted by: BravoMan
from Sacramento, CA
You know that you’re not supposed to use most electronics near water, especially not IN the water. But that’s definitely not the case for the Philips Norelco Multigroom Series 7400 Trimmer. Not only can it help you trim down/maintain your beard, cut those pesky nose hairs, and what not, but you can do this while you’re in the shower. The trimmer can be used in both wet and dry environments, making it convenient for you to get your hair in order.
This trimmer comes with 8 attachments, rechargeable lithium ion battery that can last for up to 60 minutes per charge, and a storage pouch to carry everything together. The trimmer also has a “Turbo” setting to increase the cutting speed of the trimmer, for when you need to speed up the cutting job. Overall, the Philips Norelco Multigroom Series 7400 Trimmer is easy to carry around, easy to use, and easy to maintain.

Your personal assistant, on call, all the time
on November 17, 2016
Posted by: BravoMan
from Sacramento, CA
There’s something about having the ability to just ask a question or request something to be done with your voice and it gets done is amazing. With Google Home, you now have a Personal Assistant that works weekends and can provide you with answers to questions that you have. Google Home can also provide you with a personalized overview of your day, controls your smart devices (like a Chromecast), play music, you can even request to have an Uber come and pick you up.
When asking Google Home a question or a series of questions, you can do so similarly to how you would with a person. For example, if you ask Google Home how to say “Good Morning in Spanish” and then follow up with another question such as, “how about Good Evening”, it will provide you with the translation in Spanish without you having to specifically request the translation in Spanish again. Google Home can maintain context from the previous question to continue answering your questions.
Of course, there is still certain things that Google Home cannot do yet, such as skipping an alarm for a specific day or for several days (you have to cancel the alarm if you don’t want it to go off), or request a Lyft if you’re not a fan of Uber, just to name a few. But I can imagine that as time progresses, that these things can be implemented to make Google Home better for people.

Good alternative for vehicles without built-in Nav
on October 24, 2016
Posted by: BravoMan
from Sacramento, CA
This device is good for those that are looking for a smart device to add-on to their vehicle, especially those looking for some sort of navigation system. The Overdryve 7 can also function like a regular Android tablet, even though it has been heavily modified for use as a navigation system with various other applications for use in a vehicle. Such as a dashcam, collision avoidance, and so forth. So when the Overdryve 7 isn't being used for navigation out on the road, you can install your own applications like games and so forth to make more use of the Overdryve 7.
Battery life averages between 2 to 4 hours, depending on the amount of applications you're actively running, active bluetooth connection, and whatnot. You can also purchase additional equipment to further enhance your experience with the Overdryve 7. Like a backup camera or a tire pressure monitoring system to name a few.
Overall, the Overdryve 7 provides a variety of tools that are both convenient and easy to use, and is great for people looking to add-on something to their vehicle that provides this type of functionality. A good alternative than having to purchase a new car that has most of these features built-in.

5 out of 5Excellent Tablet without the Bloatware
By BravoMan
from California
What is there NOT to like about this tablet? Well.. besides it not having a slot for an SD card to add on to the available storage. After you start it up and update it (had to do it twice right out of the box). It comes with stock Android 4.3 with not Bloatware in sight. It is fast, easy to use, and just the right size to do pretty much anything. I use this tablet for both personal and business. Plenty of applications to accomplish a myriad of tasks or to waste time when you need to.

will these work with the tv. how do they connect
The TV has to have the ability to connect to devices via Bluetooth. For example, some Samsung TV's come with integrated Bluetooth adapters (since their remotes are connected via Bluetooth) that can connect to a device such as these JBuds Air Sport True Wireless In-Ear Headphones. If your TV does not have bluetooth built-in, you will not be able to connect these to the TV. You will have to perform an internet search for your TV and see if it comes with a Bluetooth adapter.
