A decent Chromebook option
on February 1, 2018
Posted by: NJ1193
from Fort Worth, TX
I like the price point of this Chromebook - it's low enough in cost to be accessible to those with smaller budgets, while still delivering the Chrome experience. The device is speedy and works well - I never ran into any issues on that front. It is aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Furthermore, the keyboard is fantastic - great key travel and very accurate (better keyboard than my 2017 MacBook Pro, to be honest).
Now, where the major downfall is with this Chromebook: the screen. You must be looking straight on to see everything clearly - look at it from an angle and it's difficult to make things out. To me, this is almost a dealbreaker and definitely takes away from the other positives of the device. Honestly, it feels like a device from the early 2000s screen-wise.
All in all, it's a good entry-level Chromebook. It is a solid device, and hits on all categories except the screen (a big one) - if you can look past the screen quality, I definitely recommend this Chromebook.

Average headphones, poor connectivity
on January 25, 2018
Posted by: NJ1193
from Fort Worth, TX
I would rate these as average sounding headphones - midrange bass. They fit well in my ear and don’t fall out, but just don’t sound amazing like I would hope for the price tag.
Further, the most glaring issue with these is the connectivity. These constantly disconnect from my iPhone. Until this is fixed, I would definitely advise staying away from these headphones.

Super awesome antenna for OTA TV
on January 23, 2018
Posted by: NJ1193
from Fort Worth, TX
I don’t like paying for TV, so this is the perfect solution for me to still watch TV. My wife and I recently moved to a rural area in DFW, so we are a good bit away from TV stations. We get all the important channels that we want - Love it. This antenna has phenomenal range.
Further, you can paint it to match your decor. This is very nice and will hopefully appeal to those of you who don’t want your living room looking sloppy.

Not my favorite...
on December 14, 2017
Posted by: NJ1193
from Fort Worth, TX
For running, this is a great watch in theory - GPS, heart rate monitor. Very cool.
However, I am not impressed with the app. It crashes very often, and desperately needs to be improved. Compared to my Fitbit, the heart rate monitor and gps are very accurate. However, the Fitbit app is far superior.
All in all, I think there are better run watches - Fitbit makes some of the best ones, in my opinion.

Very cool fixture, great for a smart home
on December 14, 2017
Posted by: NJ1193
from Fort Worth, TX
My wife and I have an old 70s home, and have slowly been turning it into a modern smart home.
This is a very cool fixture - it looks great, and is easy to install. However, the instructions leave a lot to be desired. If you have installed any fixture in the ceiling before, this is similar - quite easy. Just make sure you turn off the breaker!
Using this in combo with other Philips products is awesome. It just works great to be able to control your lighting with your voice. If you like this design, and want a smart fixture - this is the one.

You'll even get motion and sound-activated alerts and 7 days of free cloud video recordings. Arlo Pro 2 works with Amazon Alexa to make your smart home security even more simple and effective.

Just buy it
on November 19, 2017
Posted by: NJ1193
from Fort Worth, TX
I am an Arlo believer after this product. I love the idea of a smart home, and these cameras fit PERFECTLY in that concept. Very high quality clips are recorded ANY time someone/something passes by the cameras.
To top it all off, the app for the cameras is awesome, works well on my android phone and iPhone. A big big plus, as a lot of companies can’t get apps right for both OSes.
If you have any desire to monitor home security, you owe it to yourself to buy these. Don’t buy the other brands - Arlo is without a doubt the absolute best.

Video editing doesn't have to be daunting or take tons of time. Go from hundreds of mystery folders to a visual view of your videos automatically sorted by date. Use automated editing options and step-by-step guidance to create and share everything from animated GIFs and video collages to new dynamic slideshows and full-length movies.

Good software
on November 19, 2017
Posted by: NJ1193
from Fort Worth, TX
Good software, I primarily use iMovie, so there was a learning curve to this software. It does work very well though once you learn it. I recommend it highly if you have a PC - likely the best video editing software for PC. For Mac, I would stick with iMovie.

Awesome TV - a great high end option
on November 19, 2017
Posted by: NJ1193
from Fort Worth, TX
I have had both an entry level Samsung curved 4K LED and an LG 55” OLED 4K TV. This TV I would stack right in the middle of those - I believe it’s an excellent value, and I hope to explain why in this review.
The Samsung I paid $1300 for, it had a decent picture when I got rid of it, but the remote was weird, the apps were glitchy. I wasn’t a huge fan, especially for $1300. Enter the Hisense 55H9D Plus. This TV is amazing - PS4 Pro games look GORGEOUS and flow very well. Watching football is a dream as well, never noticed any jagged edges or splotchy scenes.
To continue on picture quality, the blacks on this TV are the best I’ve seen - on an LED TV. An OLED TV is still better for the best blacks on screen, but this Hisense is phenomenal- especially at this price.
I highly recommend this TV to anyone who needs an awesome 55” set that has excellent picture quality and works well for games. I would highly recommend over any competition - Hisense may be an up and comer, but it has firmly established itself as an awesome quality brand for a low price.

Excellent product - easy to use and setup
on October 24, 2017
Posted by: NJ1193
from Fort Worth, TX
I love transforming our old 70s home into a up-to-date SMART HOME! This unit was the next step. It is absolutely fantastic - I appreciate knowing when my garage door is open or closed by just checking an app on my phone.
I will say, setup was INCREDIBLY easy as well. For an average user, I would estimate 30-45 minutes. Very easy and well worth it! Highly recommend this unit to anyone wanting an easier way to control your garage door :)

Listen to your playlist in peace with these Sony headphones. They have a 40mm dome driver to deliver the full depth of audio, and the noise cancelling feature minimizes outside disturbances for a better listening experience. These Sony headphones have a battery life of up to 30 hours for extended jam sessions.

Amazing quality headphones
on October 23, 2017
Posted by: NJ1193
from Fort Worth, TX
I've gotta say, these headphones have impressed me more than any other pair I've had or tried - the Bose headphones (I forget the model # at this time), the Beats Studio, or the Plantronics Backbeat Pro 2. These are above and beyond any other noise cancelling headphone, in my opinion. One of the things that I think makes these incredibly innovative and stand out, is the gesture controls to play/pause, etc. Very very cool.
As far as the main selling point of these, the noise cancelling: amazing. crystal clear sound and a complete shutout of background noise. Absolutely love it.
Highly recommend these headphones to anyone needing or wanting a noise-cancelling set.
