Better then the original G903
on July 23, 2019
Posted by: Closingracer
from Brooklyn, New York
I had the original G903 for a while and loved it. No noticeable lag like you would with regular Bluetooth nice. It only issue was it only lasted 30 hours with lights on. This one basically improves with a better sensor and better battery life. Battery life is around 140 hours with lights on. I play mostly MMO’s or rpgs but do play some battlefield and the no lag with the mouse works great

These are one of the best true wireless earbuds
on July 20, 2019
Posted by: Closingracer
from Staten Island, New York
These are one of the best true wireless earbuds I have used so far in 2019. Finally Sony has added USB type C with their earbuds and also Bluetooth 5.0 in any of their wireless Bluetooth products. They have active noise cancellation, 6 -8 hours of battery life per charge depending on if you use ANC or not and feel very comfortable.
Inside the box you get:
XS,S,M,L silicone ear tips
S,M,L rubber or something ear tips
1 foot or so USB to USB type C cable
Case
And the earbuds
XS,S,M,L silicone ear tips
S,M,L rubber or something ear tips
1 foot or so USB to USB type C cable
Case
And the earbuds
Battery life is one of the most important things to me and these don’t disappoint. They advertise 6 hours with ANC and 8 hours with it off. I listen to music around 70% volume and had ANC on and off for a bit and lasted around 5 hours which is close enough for me since most don’t reach the advertised life for me.
ANC works great considering they are ear buds and not over the ear. Blocks most noise out. I would ballpark and say this does like 80% and perhaps more as the WH-1000MX2 ( didn’t buy the MX3) did which is great.
Sound: comparing these to the Powerbeats Pro these lack the punchy bass but these sound clearer which is important as well. Different use cases so it’s understandable.
Overall I would totally recommend these as AirPods alternatives

Acer Nitro 5 Laptop: Experience immersive multimedia with this Acer Nitro 5 gaming laptop. The 8GB of RAM and Intel Core i5 processor support multitasking, and the 512GB solid-state drive offers quick data access and ample storage. This Acer Nitro 5 gaming laptop features an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 graphics card that renders crystal-clear images on the 17.3-inch Full HD display.
Posted by: Closingracer

I own an older Nitro 5 and that was good for the price but this one is better in every way basically. This has an Intel i5-9300H and a Nividia GTX 1650 GPU with 4GB of GDDR5 memory. Also has a 512GB PCIE SSD and 8GB of DDR4 memory in single channel. This model has the 17 inch screen with very thin bezels.
Compared to my older Nitro model which has bigger bezels and only 15 inches this 17 model is only slightly bigger then my old one but with a bigger screen because of the thinner bezels. The screen is only 60hz but with only a 1650 which is better then a 1050 ti but slightly worse then a 1060 its screen is good enough.
The 1650 is good enough to play most modern games if you dial back the settings which is great if you're not a hardcore gamer or on a budget.
My old Nitro only had a i5-7300HQ which is a 4 core cpu with a max turbo of 3.6GHZ but didn't have hyperthreading unlike this i5-9300H. This cpu also has a higher turbo clock speed at 4.0GHZ which is better as well.
This laptop is great for people who don't need a demanding gpu or for people who don't want to spend over $1,000 for a laptop.

Ultimate Ears WONDERBOOM 2 rocks a surprisingly big sound anywhere. Heading outside? Hit Outdoor Boost for louder crisper audio autodoors.
Posted by: Closingracer
from Staten Island, NY, USA
Inside the box you get the speaker in front and then a micro usb cable to charge it. USB type C would of been nice but oh well. What’s nice about this speaker is the fact it a 360 degree speaker so you get sound all over. It also gets quite loud and also has an outdoors mode which lowers the bass but makes the treble and mods louder so it’s easier to hear outside. It also has an IP67 rating which means its dust and water resistant as well. Also is drop proof within 5 feet which is also great so you don’t have to worry about breaking it at all.

This thing is fantastic. Built great and sounds great as well. It’s for Xbox but it also works on PC as well. I love that it has a thing for audio that can’t determine to mix game audio and voice chat. Inside the box it comes with an optical cable , usb to micro usb and a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable.

For the price these sound great
on May 14, 2019
Posted by: Closingracer
from Staten Island, NY, USA
First off these are not over the ear but ok ear headphones. These headphones are a nice pair of headphones that are budget friendly and nice to see that it has USB type C now instead of micro USB. These are extra bass headphones so it has pumping bass which isn’t surprising but these sound pretty good with the mids and treble as well for the cost of them. You don’t have much spacial separation which isn’t uncommon with on ears anyways and closed backed headphones but for $129 it’s not bad. These are very light weight and has little to no clamping force so I would watch out if you’re moving your head. These have an advertised battery life of around 30 hours and so far they haven’t disappointed. I get around 27-28 hours which isn’t bad at all.

Best active noise cancellation headphones
on April 23, 2019
Posted by: Closingracer
from Staten Island, NY, USA
I’ve used various ANC headphones and these are the best overall so far. Sound Quality isn’t the best but I find the ANC to be top notch. Best in class in my opinion. Inside the box you’ll find a hard shell case and inside you have the headphones , airplane adapter , a USB to USB type C cablento charge the device and a 3.5 to 3.5 mm cable to connect it to your device wired if it doesn’t support Bluetooth ( Bluetooth 5.0) . They advertise battery life with ANC on around 36 hours and 41 hours with it off. I have it on and used it for a whole day and it was 70% or so by the end of the day so I would say the battery life is a close enough number. They also include an app which can EQ these a bit which is nice as well.

It’s a better looking then the previous generation
on April 13, 2019
Posted by: Closingracer
from Staten Island, NY, USA
This is basically only a facelift of the older XB31 but that’s not a bad thing! This speaker has an advertised battery life of 24 hours but that’s with only standard mode and no lights on. I prefer extra bass and the lights and it lasts good enough for me ( umm around 8-10 ). This also has an IP67 rating which means it’s dust proof and waterprooof in certain circumstances. It also floats so I wouldn’t worry about it too much. The only negative thing about this speaker is that it still uses Bluetooth 4.2 and it still charges with micro USB. Otherwise this speaker gets plenty loud and a lot of bass.

This thing said it was a portable speaker but it’s huge! In the box it comes with the speaker , booklet , cable to charge it and then another one that works in Europe I believe ( I don’t think it’s English with two circle prongs ). In the box it was dead but it was fully charged in like 2 hours. This thing has three knobs to control volume , bass and treble and these work great. The bass is pumping but I prefer less treble so I can lower it. It also has an IPX2 rating so I wouldn’t be afraid of accidentally spraying it with a little water like on a table outside or near your kitchen kind of thing but it wouldn’t survive near a pool or in rain much. As as sound goes this sounds better then most speakers out there in the market to me at least. Design is signature Marshall design if you ever seen their amps and mics.

The sound quality is OK but for the cost, it should be magnificent. Also the buttons controls don't control very much. Again for the cost, I should be a able to a answer calls, play/pause music, skip tracks, fast forward and remind as well as change the volume... I expected more for the money.

Overall5 out of 5
5 out of 5A great gaming laptop at a reasonable price.
By JamesJr
The G751 is the newest gaming laptop from ASUS. It may not have the latest 970M or 980M graphics but the GTX 860M is no slouch and is an upper mid-range graphics chip. Also, this model is the only one that has a touch screen, the higher level models do not. The standard hard drive is plenty large at 1TB but I would have liked an SSD at this price. I have already installed one and I recommend that anyone who buys a laptop to install a SSD at least for the OS when they can.
The screen is very large and plenty bright and colorful, this laptop could easily replace your desktop. The keys have a cool red backlighting with a 10 key when you need to get some work done. Overall, I would highly recommend this laptop for anyone who wants a nice-looking and fast gaming laptop or desktop replacement.

This should have the Nvidia 970m or 980m
December 19, 2014
The G751 series in fact has the Nvidia 970 or 980m gpu inside and think either bestbuy is posting the wrong specs or the wrong model number . Also ASUS doesn't sell ROG laptops with a touchscreen to my knowledge unless this is s bestbuy exclusive model with s dumbed down gpu ?

Waiting for them to mail out the replacement is ridiculous and not at all customer friendly! Because your iPhone screen is totally unprotected while you wait for their replacement!!! This is why I would not recommend it to friends!!! Too costly and time consuming and a huge inconvenience and hassle! I hate the way it is set up!!!

I have had this product for about 3-4 days and absolutely love it! its super thin and portable. It has a great keyboard and overall really fast machine.

I just feel the current color is fit for women rather than men.

3 out of 5Great attempt by HP, but battery is dismal!
By Doug
I waited months for the lightest and thinnest 13" laptop with a Intel core i7. It has many terrific features; size, weight, awesome display, keyboard, etc. But for my uses, the negatives are too much to overcome; TERRIBLE Battery life (I have turned off Bluetooth, turned down display brightness, using power management settings, etc.) yet I am lucky to get 2.5 hours of web surfing and streaming of Netflix! Charging cord is long and bulky for travel. Audio is crisp and clear, but volume is insufficient if there is any background noise in the room at all.
I guess it is back to MacAir; as much as I wanted to get onto Windows 10. Extremely disappointed in HP's claim of 9 hours of battery life. Do they not test their prototypes out first?

While battery life with my MacBook pro is better This isn't that bad... I got around 6-7 hours with it and I was streaming Netflix and web surfing pretty much. A lot more than turning off Bluetooth, lowering brightness can affect the battery life. Low wifi signal can be an issue, high cpu usage and etc. I would also use it for a few days and see if its the same issue.

By byubangal
Laptop is one of the best looking laptops you can buy but the battery life is horrible. If you are running bluetooth, wifi, and your screen is bright; you WILL drop battery life at the rate of 1% every 3 to 4 mins. I've never seen a laptop drop power so fast. Other than that, laptop is great but I will be going back to Spectre 360
