Interesting Keyboard
on July 29, 2022
Posted by: OmieOne
First off let me get the superficial look and feel of the keyboard out of the way before I talk about the interesting tech that Steelseries put into the keyboard.
For a 60% keyboard the size of the keys are spaced well and they have clearly marked the secondary functions of the keys to make them easy to find and use to adjust what you want. They are easy to read. The only feel and downside I have is the case is plastic and not a solid metal, which I prefer. But there is no flex I just prefer if my keyboards esp. smaller ones have a bit of heft to them. Overall though the build quality is solid and the RGB seems bright enough to shine through the key caps.
Installing the Software from SteelSeries allows you to customize the the RGB and more importantly the actuation point of the each keys. The keyboard can adjust the actuation point for all keys, but the software allows to adjust for it all keys. So for certain keys you can have activate on just a feather light touch or having to bottom the key out or somewhere in between and you can customize to each key allowing you to customize your game experience. The other interesting thing is you can have one key do two different things on a key press based on how much you press down. This allows for one key to two different things which is nice if you have a game with odd keys and don't want to stretch your fingers for it.
The software seems solid and supports multiple profiles for the different keys you setup allowing you customize for a few games which is great.
Overall I like the ability to adjust the key press actuation based on games, and while I'm still dialing it in its nice, the keyboard is also very small, being a 60% so its handy for my laptop when I travel because it fines easily into my bag allowing me to have a constant gaming experience on the go too.

Nice Mouse
on July 5, 2022
Posted by: OmieOne
This is a great feeling wired mouse.
Setup is easy in the sense you just plug it in and it works which is what I want in a gaming mouse. I want to plug it in and play. The lighting is also unique on it which is a nice touch if you want to go for an RGB neo-cyberpunk look. The switches on the mouse feel great and the weight is just right for me. I also have big hands and this mouse feels just right in it for me which is a nice touch. It is a standard Right Handed mouse so if you prefer left handing a mouse this won't work for you.
This mouse has a number of buttons and installing the software can help you control/change what the 15 different buttons do including adjusting the DPI, though for my game play needs it works fine out of the box, which good feel and and nice clicks. It was also nice to see a spare set of glide pads to be included with the mouse. Its nice to be able to extend the life of the mouse by swapping out the old pads because I have a spare set then worrying about it down the road.

Handy Travel Keeb
on July 5, 2022
Posted by: OmieOne
Great travel keyboard or multiple Laptop Keyboard. I happen to have a number of laptops at home that I use during my work day for various things and having this keyboard that can switch between them seamlessly is handy. Also being BT it makes a great keyboard I find for an media PC and device.
It also has a nice and great feel if you like a brown switch. Its nice for a compact keyboard to have a good set of mechanical keys. The only downside for the switches they don't use the default Cherry MX stems, so that means custom key caps will be a more limited in changing the look of the keyboard. That is a bit of a shame, but for someone wants a good keyboard to add to their laptop jump bag then this will do the job. Seems to have a good battery I haven't had to charge it yet and I've been daily driving. It does charge via USB C so that is handy. I do wish though you could use the keyboard wired when the battery dies as I can forget to charge these devices over time.
The dongle for non-bluetooth devices works great, but I wish the keyboard had a slot to store it when not in use.
Those are minor complaints. Overall this is a great keyboard to use.

I love this Laptop and the Screen is Amazing
on June 21, 2022
Posted by: OmieOne
Honestly the Screen is worth the price of admission alone, and Asus has created a well balanced Laptop that has battery life/performance/thermals with a great Hinge.
*Setup*
Easy to setup, plug in and boots right up into Windows 11. Only downside is that Windows 11 really really really wants you to connect online and use a MSFT account. So yeah have you WiFi password ready and know what your MSFT account if you have one is since its needed. Otherwise its easy sailing in picking the options. Out of the box Asus picked a good power plan/balance for laptop use and didn't over bloat the Laptop. Nothing really to rid of which is nice. Once logged in easy to us and the IR Webcam allows you to setup Windows Hello, making logging in super easy.
*Usage*
Using this laptop is great in any mode, and Running it through Firestrike the CPU score is strong, though the dedicated Intel GPU isn't the strongest, its good enough for light gaming tasks if you wanted to go that way, as well I'm sure some productivity work and watching/producing content. The OLED Screen is nicely calibrated and covers a Wide Gamut and this screen is fire. Its very clear and just watching movies on this is great, esp. since they actually have a really good sound systems that sounds clear and wonderful. Its the first time I've been impressed by a laptops sound.
The Touchscreen works well too and you can get an optional drawing pen if your want to take notes and art.
Upgrade ability wise ASUS does provide the directions on how to open the Laptop and change out the NVME SSD if you wanted a larger one, but that is all that can be changed, which isn't horrible as 16GB of DDR5 Ram seems to be enough for Light content creation and light gaming.
Overall I'm impressed with this laptop, its size and power packed into a package which strong battery life and good balance of thermals to noise. When I was using it to take notes the fans did not spin up and the temps on the CPU didn't get higher then 40 degrees using OneNote and Word. So this makes it a great working laptop to take notes etc with the power do a bit more. Overall if you want a good laptop to be productive this is the one for you.

Nice Set of Cans
on June 20, 2022
Posted by: OmieOne
Overall these are great headphones to use for gaming that connect via USB.
*Setup*
Just plug them in and use them, worked right out of the box. Didn't need to tweak anything or download software to use. You can download iCue to control the sound/RGB but it isn't necessary which is nice because it makes it easier for me to use as a traveling headphones, since I can just plug it into any PC and go.
*Sound*
Sounds good with clear sound. I didn't have issues and really enjoy them for playing games. The sound quality seems on point, and responsive. The mic works well, I attached a clip so you can hear. Good enough to do a co-stream with the wife instead of my usual Mic.
https://www.twitch.tv/oelshami/clip/BlushingBeautifulSpindleBloodTrail-GN2-O-v-JBQpTMwg
The only issue I have is comfort. While the Memory foam is great and helps isolate the sound, but can be a bit tight on us glasses wearing people, so for longer sessions I would recommend taking breaks and taking the headphones off to save yourself some discomfort.
Overall they are a nice compact pair of headphones with a good Mic that flips up to mute (has a button too) and sound great.

Fun little Gadget
on June 17, 2022
Posted by: OmieOne
*Setup*
Yes this cup requires setup, however its fairly simple, charge the cup, download the App to your phone and then pair it to the app so you can update firmware and set the preferred temp you want as alerting you that the temperature has been reached.
*Usage*
Pour in drink and adjust the temp in your app if you wish and enjoy. Really is that simple. Nothing more complicated then that. You don't need the app, once you set the temp, it will remember, but if you want to adjust you can. Battery life off the saucer for me was around 90ish minutes which was handy when I got caught up with work that I didn't get to my drink. It was still warm which was nice.
The biggest problem I have with this mug is, it is only 6oz. so most of the time I'm done with the coffee/tea well before I'd need a mug to help keep it warm, so I'd highly recommend getting a larger one, but if you a slow sipper/drinker this definitely would be the cup for you as you can use it to keep your drink warm up to 145F all day (if you leave it on the saucer that is plugged in) or 90 mins on battery.
Overall this is a neat little mug that will actively warm/keep the drink warm. If you wanted something different from a insulated Mug with a neat RGB you can give this a try.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A Good Gen 1 Product
on February 19, 2022
Posted by: OmieOne
from East Stroudsburg, PA
Overall this is an interesting way to do speakers with good sound. By being wired they don't have to store a battery which is a plus making it lightweight and easy to wear for long gaming sessions. The speakers though are loud though and not localized so if you have the volume up others in the Room can hear you. I put them down and walked about 15ft to the fridge and was able to make out the stream I was watching no issues. So they can definitely project and give you good sound.
Being Wired means not having to remember to charge, but I would have liked a magnetic breakaway cable because I know one day I'll get up and forget as I have done with Headphones numerous times. It is nice that you can also connect to via 3.5mm audio jack, but will need to power the device via USB separately.
Setup is, just plug it and Windows finds it. No drivers required.
Only major issue I encountered with these, if they were plugged into USB when I turned on my PC it would hang and not finishing booting until I unplugged them which is a bit annoying, so again a breakaway magnetic cable would have been nice, instead of unplugging from the PC. I did try a Powered USB Hub and my monitor's USB too, but it would hang on boot. So if you have these plugged in on boot and it just stays at the bios, unplug them, let Windows Boot and then continue.
Overall this is a good first try with nice audio that didn't cover my ears with headphones and a decent set of speakers that produce good sound.

Neat Zoom Zoom
on February 6, 2022
Posted by: OmieOne
from Pocono's, PA
Age:45-54
Setup of the scooter was easy and striaght forward. That was nice. Takes about 3 hours for a full charge. They claim about 9 miles range on a charge.
Scooter itself is around 30 to 40lbs so its heavier then you'd expect but that is nice as it feels well built and
designed to be used and folds up if you want to take it on vacation.
It has a 250W motor and they say they support a rider up to 264lbs. So it can carry a wide range. Obviously if you
weigh closer to the max you won't get the max speed of 15mph, but it will still go.
Tested it (I'm at the Max) and didn't hit the speed, but my teens got on and were giving me a heartattack. (Helmet definitely recommended).
They had a lot of fun and were happy they didn't have to push this thing up our hill.
Its a great little device and I find it will come in handy to get the mail about a 1/4 mile from the house.
Overall its a fun little zoom zoom that the kids look forward to riding in the spring when the weather is better to be outside.
Highly recommended, but get helmets, at least for the sake of the parents heart.

Works Great as a HDMI Capture Source
on January 4, 2022
Posted by: OmieOne
from East Stroudsburg, PA
Small time Streamer and this USB Capture card grabs my 4K Sony Camcorder with no issue. Plugged into USB and the Camera and had OBS detecting the source and showing the picture with no issues. It just worked out the box no extra software required and didn't add extra stress to the system to capture the camcorder and display it.
I like the simplicity and no need for extra software. It is nice and am very happy to capture my Camcorder at 4K making the picture great and didn't take much effort,

Need real estate this is the monitor for you
on December 20, 2021
Posted by: OmieOne
from East Stroudsburg, PA
Setup:
This is a large monitor about 47" wide so you will need a large desk/table when setting this up so make sure you have the space for the large legs and wide monitor.
When opening the box make sure you follow the directions as they have you get stand into the monitor before taking out. It also recommends you cable manage before taking out, since on the back it has a cover to hide them, the downside is if you need to swap a cable you have to pop the cover. Not the end of the world but does make you want to ensure that you have all the cabled properly and securely plugged in before covering and setting up on your table. Besides being large and a bit awkard moving it isn't too hard and once situated the stand is stable and eary to pivot to get into the perfect position for viewing.
Usage:
You will need a decent Video Card to power this for sure, but the display looks fantastic and QLED make games pop. I did confirm my monitor came with the most recent firmware and Nvidia Gsync picked it up no issues.
You will want to increase the DPI/mouse movement a bit as navigating across it can be interesting, but even with HDR for gaming the game looks good.
However its wide screen monitor so for gaming that is interesting as Games don't normally come programed for that. See picture attached, as you will get oddities in some games as the FOV was designed and the engine doesn't scale. That said playing games even in Windowed mode when needed look great and even watching streamed content it was awesome and I am just enjoying the monitor and space it provides. It has a lighting system, but I keep it off since I don't need RGB, but you can turn on the lights on the back of the monitor to get a glow if you are into that and it has a Headphone rest, though the size of this monitor means you'll need to be pretty tall to take advantage of reaching behind the monitor to get the headphones and place them, but it is a nice touch. It looks clean and the monitor itself is great, the new Halo Infinite looks fantastic on it and I'm having a blast gaming/consuming content as its nice having 2 2K monitors worth of space in one panel.
Final Thoughts
As long as you don't mind dealing with some games having issues with Wide Screen but want things to look great and smooth this is definitely a monitor to play/game on. I'm having a lot of fun with it and so happy to have it, even if I had to take some extra time with games to adjust the settings to handle the monitor I can't be happier, esp. with HDR on, it looks awesome.

This HP Pavilion gaming desktop has a 1TB hard drive and 128GB solid-state drive for a large game collection and quick boot times.
 

Does the OS come installed on the HDD? If so do we get a product key so that we can switch it to the SSD? And last, but not least, can I system reset the computer and reinstall the OS from scratch??? Thank you.

OS is installed on the SSD not the HDD. But you could change it I guess. However if you are planning on swapping the SSD to something larger, not this the SSD in this PC is M.2 SATA SSD and not the 2.5" Inch form factor.

As long you use the same Microsoft Account the OS Key will transfer based on the Microsoft account, no need to renter a key.

Jam to your favorite tunes in comfort with the foldable, around-the-neck design of these Sony wireless headphones.
 

It mentions 9hr of battery life. Ignorant about wireless...is there a required charger? Does it come with headphones?

It comes with an USB Micro Cable. This can be plugged into a computer to charge (about 2 1/2 hours for full charge from 0%) or if you have a spare AC to USB connector (Comes with a lot of last Generation Android/Windows Phones) you can connect to the wall to charge.

Simplify your everyday life with the Google Home, a voice-activated speaker powered by the Google Assistant. Use voice commands to enjoy music, get answers from Google and manage everyday tasks. Google Home is compatible with Android and iOS operating systems, and can control compatible smart devices such as Chromecast or Nest."
 

If I wake this device up and my wife happens to rattle off our bank name and account number, is that information sent to Google to help improve their device's voice recognition? I am major worried about things like this with these devices

Once you say Hey Google, it will record and it gets stored on the Google Account associated with the device. Google does allow you to not only see what it has but delete it. They also added a H/W mute to prevent the device from recording. But yes they do store this information and use it.

Do I have to have a tablet or smart phone to activate this? Or, can I activate this from a laptop?

You need an Android (Phone or Tablet) or Apple (iPad/iPhone) device. Google unfortunately doesn't provide for use by Computer at this time and playing with the Android App I'd say you'd be better off with an Android device to get the most out this thing.

Will it help to stop buffering?

This depends on why you are having buffering issues. If your buffering issues are because your internet is slow/ISP not able to deliver no. That is outside the house. However if you have a good ISP/bandwidth coming into the house then this can help, as it improves coverage and since MU-MIMO devices are better able to share wireless with multiple devices. You may still need/wish to upgrade the wireless cards to the newer AC ones that support MU-MIMO to get additional throughput but this may help.
