Better then the Apple Airpods

I have tried quite a few of these true wireless earbuds from a few different companies but these are one of my favorites. You can connect them with either Bluetooth or NFC ( by using the included charging case). They last about 2.5 half hours of real time usage (states officially 3) and the charging case is supposed to hold 2 more charges. You also get an app to control the amount of noise cancelation you want and an eq as well. I haven't noticed any skips in playback unless you have them in your hands in a fist. Sound quality wise if you want true wireless earbuds or just hate cords these are one of the best you can get in the $200 to $300 price range.

Great laptop to do all your basic needs.

This computer is fantastic for doing your basic needs without any issues. You can do your word processing, email, presentations, and web browsing without a hitch with the Intel i5 inside and 8gb of RAM. The 2TB HDD is a bit on a slow side wishing they used a 7200 rpm hdd at least or ideally a SSD bit it good enough and is ample amount of space. The screen is a LCD screen and is also a touch screen. Also has some Biometric unlocking feature using your face

Fantastic projector

I am not a fan of projectors because I always thought TV's were better but I find that the ease of using this on a wall to be great, It is 1080P which is what most TV's are and most content is right now and this does great. Has 2 HDMI ports to plug in most devices . I wouldn't suggest putting in a console with this but media consumption this is great for.

Best True Wireless earbuds yet!
on October 3, 2017
Posted by: Closingracer
from Brooklyn, New York
I am not a huge fan of Bose since I find their audio to be quite flat. inside the box you get earbuds for large and small, Micro USB cable and a case which also charges your earbuds for 2 whole charges which means you get 15 hours of total playback when you include the earbuds last 5 hours on one charge plus the 2 extra from the case. These are also the longest I believe that I have tried with others reaching only a top of 12 hours of total playback. You can also download an app on the Play store or App Store called Bose connect which will easily pair the buds to your phone instead of going through pages of settings to do it.
As far as sound quality goes these aren't bad at all and I actually do enjoy them. The bass is there and they don't really bleed into the mids and the treble isn't screeching.
If you want true wireless earbuds or buds to work out with I would totally recommend these to anybody.

Better than the previous pair
on October 3, 2017
Posted by: Closingracer
from Brooklyn, New York
I have the previous generation and while I liked them I found the battery life to be quite lower then the 4 hours it promotes not including the battery clip. I find that these last closer to the 4 hours they say it does this time and found the audio to be good. I also find these ear tips to be the best Jaybird has to offer between the Freedom first gen of this model and the X3 because these ear tips look to be more secure and not fall off the earbuds like the other ones did. I would have to buy replacement pairs because they would fall off and I wouldn't find them. The only reason this gets 4 stars is because I find these don't get loud enough compared to other wireless headphones. I thought maybe because it was bluetooth and Android but I tried different wireless headphones and even connected it to my iPad and they just don't get loud enough for me. Otherwise these are great earphones.

They are ok

Posted by: Closingracer
from Brooklyn, New York
The sound, comfort and battery life is all just ok. I don't find these to sound bad but they don't sound great either. As far as comfort goes I find the tips to not fit exactly in my ears like others do and those wings doesn't help either. Battery life wasn't bad and way better then the Jaybird Freedom's without including the battery clip but wasn't much better.

Love these

I love these earphones not so much because of sound quality but the fit and the fact I washed these by accident and dried them and they still work! These came fully charged and after a few weeks of listening to the though nothing extremely long I have yet to charge them. They sound decent specially at the price point though. I find the fit also to be excellent with them never falling out.

Amazing Speaker!
on July 13, 2017
Posted by: Closingracer
from Brooklyn, New York
When I saw this I pictured this speaker to be smaller also considering it is called a portable speaker. When I got this delivered to my door I was shocked how big this is. Sound great and it is also water resistant with all the important plugs sealed so water can't easily get into it. The only issue I have with the speaker which is why I gave it 4 stars is because you need a special AC adapter to power it instead of something more universal like USB C.

Amazing sound bar
on July 6, 2017
Posted by: Closingracer
from Brooklyn, New York
This is the first sound bar I have ever used. I love good headphones but I never cared much about speakers for TV viewing and after this I don't think I can go back to TV speakers any more. You get more bass for those action movies and everything else just sounds better. The design of the sound bar is basic and does the job bit I don't like that they put the inputs on the bottom and since I have mine laying on a stand it is sitting atop the AC power plug.

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.

ASUS G751JM-BHI7N27 Laptop: Take your gaming on the go without sacrificing hard drive space or processor speeds. This powerful laptop boasts an oversized screen, built-in subwoofer and dual fans for intensive gameplay.
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 ?

too expensive! On my 3rd screen since 7/19/15!!!
I feel like Since we have bought the screen from best buy it verizon that they will have us in the computer and should give us an immediate replacement! 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. BUT the only thing that bothers me is the color. Only reason why i gave it 4 stars. I am actually thinking of returning the item and repurchasing once different color options become available. 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
