Great pair of headphones
on September 30, 2021
Posted by: Closingracer
from Staten Island, New York
I have always loved Sony headphones in terms of sound quality and features. This product is great for people who can't afford or don't want to pay for the higher price for the 1000XM4. This is also good for people who like more bass in their music but you can lower it with an equalizer in the sony app. thankfully this improves over the XB900 with a carrying case instead of a pouch and also multipoint connection so you can have it connected to your phone and laptop or etc.
Inside the box you get the headphones in the case along with a USB type A to USB type C cable for charging and a 3.5mm headphone cable. The headphones are made out of plastic but for $100 cheaper then the 1000XM4 i will accept it. It includes 30 hours of battery life with ANC on which is good. As far as sound goes it is more boomy then the 1000XM4 out of the box but it sounds great. You can still hear the mids and highs as well.

Great for beginners

Posted by: Closingracer
from Brooklyn, New York
This camera is great for beginners who want to clog or even just for taking pictures. This uses a mirror less lens and is compatible with E mount lens so you can use other lens if you want as well which is great. Inside the box you get a USB type C cable which is great because it’s the new standard over micro USB these days. This camera also comes with a lot lens as well to help you get started you just need to get a SD card.
For vlogging this has features like a a swivel display that you can flip 180° so you can see what you’re taking with the lens facing you. It’s a touch screen but honestly you’ll be using the buttons on the camera. It has a red light in front and the border on the camera display shows red background which tells you that you’re recording. The camera is also great for beginners because it has a lot of the functions of a camera that’s simply a button vs changing the settings like product showcase which focuses on an item automatically. It also has a button that helps you blur the background as well.

It’s great like all of their products

from Brooklyn, New York
I had the opportunity to try this blender out and for home use you get a lot of value for the price. I’ve used vitamixs and other high end professional blenders at work and school and while it isn’t that for the price and home use for most people this is great and simple to use. The motor is very good and much better then this $50-$100 blenders you’ll find on the shelf. You can make smoothies in this which is what I primarily use this for and makes it great. There’s only a dial to control it and works like a charm

Great printer
on September 15, 2021
Posted by: Closingracer
from Brooklyn, New York
I’ve used Espon printers a variety of times in my life and I’ve always had a love/hate relationship with ink jet printers. The ink is cheaper then laser but you’ll always run out and expensive refills. This printer is quite compact and the ink is cheaper value since it lasts way longer. First printer I’ve used with WiFi and makes printing from a laptop a breeze without all the wires as well.

My first air fryer and it’s great
on September 15, 2021
Posted by: Closingracer
from Brooklyn, New York
I have never used an air fryer before and when I got the opportunity to get one I figured I’ll try it out.
When I got the box it is smaller then I thought it would be. I pictured it to be bigger but it’s not. Anyways easy to set up and the 9QT is big enough to cook pretty much anything smaller then a chicken. I’ve tried cooking fries in there and onion rings and I got to tell you it’s healthier then frying it in oil and also saves you from buying oil as well with less mess to clean up.

Good TV for a mid range 4K tv
on August 25, 2021
Posted by: Closingracer
from Brooklyn, New York
Considering it’s price point this is a good tv but it could be better compared to the competition. The tv is easy to set up and mostly bezeless with only a slight bezel on the bottom. It has plenty of HDMI ports and the VRR works well. The colors and blacks are pretty good for the price as well. The one issue I have with the phone is the 60hz native panel which considering other TVs in the price range I would say a 120hz panel could of been done.

This is basically a USB thumb drive that has a USB type C and lightning as well for your iPhone. It makes transferring stuff like photos and files from your iPhone to a computer a breeZe. It also is metal so it feels premium but to be brutally honestly it’s not a big deal for me.

Good anti virus
on July 20, 2021
Posted by: Closingracer
from Staten Island, New York
This anti virus package is very good for the price and you are pretty protected with everything but a VPN and identity theft protection. That being said I like it and since I have a VPN anyways it’s a moot point for me. I am knocking it one star mostly because I find the interface to be a bit old and could use a better UI but otherwise it works as intended.

Way better then the previous generation
on June 28, 2021
Posted by: Closingracer
from Brooklyn, New York
I have always loved Jaybird products ever since the Bluebuds X days and these are their best products so far. These are an improvement of the original Jaybird Vistas in every way. My only issue with those was I found sound didn’t get loud enough for me. Inside the box you get the buds , a case which will charge them, a USB C to USB A cable and other size ear tips with fins. They also work with Jaybird app for Android and iOS. Also have active noise canceling as well and an ambient mode. They advertise 8 hours of battery life with the buds and 24 hours with the case. Also the case is IP54 rated and the buds are IP68 rated.
The buds will work with Jaybird app which allows you to customize the EQ so if you want more or less bass or etc you can tune it for your liking. As far as the default sound EQ it’s bass heavy but these are workout earbuds so it’s to be expected as far as battery life goes I usually listen to music around 75-80% so I got around 5-6 hours of battery life so far but I never get the advertised battery life on any headphone so it’s not a knock on these.
My only gripe with these earbuds is there is only two modes with these active noise canceling and ambient mode and doesn’t allow a passive mode at all. Sometimes I don’t want any of that and just want it off.

Dyson's latest purifiers combine intelligent sensing with an advanced filtration system. Three phases of purification sit within a fully sealed filtration and airflow system. So what goes inside, stays inside. A solid-state formaldehyde sensor and a unique catalytic filter detect and continuously destroy formaldehyde¹, an activated carbon filter removes gases and odors and a HEPA filter captures 99.97% of particles 0.3 microns in size. Then powerful Air Multiplier technology purifies, heats the whole room and cools you.²

I haven’t owned a Air purifier but it’s great
on June 10, 2021
Posted by: Closingracer
from Brooklyn, New York
I’ve never owned an Air purifier myself but considering the current situation and that it’s good to have anyways I figured I’ll give this a try. Inside the box you get the device , a remote to control it and the filters. On the device it has a screen that tells you the air quality , temperature, humidity and other stuff as well. You can also download an app to use with the device but I don’t have WiFi so I haven’t tested that out. It also is a heater and fan so it’s great to use for that as well if you don’t want to put the heat on or the AC.

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.

A 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 ?

By Raul
I been a big fan of the LG tone Bluetooth headsets so i decided to buy the 750's since I already owned the 700's so bad experience with the 750 I was hopping to get better sound quality with them but bad experience so I returned them I bought the latest version the infinite hopping to get much more quality but nothing I mean these are great headphones in the way of hardware and I keep them for over a week trying different modes and different music players with equalizers but nothing I mean if you don't care about a great bass go for it... But I you do love Heavy bass don't even think about buying these headphones...

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.

Great 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.

Great looking laptop, horrible battery life.
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
