Not bad, but overly expensive, size was too small
on July 19, 2022
Posted by: recruiter89
I have owned a Nixplay in the past and it was quite cumbersome and sort of immature technology when it came to instantly transferring photos from your phone to the frame. However it appears Nixplay worked out these kinks and now these frames are easier to work with and to use and have an easier interface to download iPhone photos to an album and easily transfer photos direct to the frame which is what other digital frame products are now using. The issue I see with this particular frame is, it is quite a small size and harder to see the pictures on this size, I would of opted to go larger. Granted, the pictures come out clear and are great images and show up cropped and enhanced, however, this size it just didnt do the pictures justice. Also, Nixplay technology in the app itself is ok, easy to use and would be easy for the non tech user to use, however, it still did not look like a solid looking app, I would of added more capabilities to this app. Another issue with these frames are the cost which is over the top for a digital frame and quite expensive. In all I would recommend the product, however I may opt for a more capable digital frame like Amazon Echo or Google etc.

A comparable player to the gaming headset market
on July 8, 2022
Posted by: recruiter89
These may not be the most high end headsets around compared to some unmentionable Turtle Beach as a comparison. However the fact they care enough to not package these with a flimsy USB-C cord and have an actual charging stand, says a lot about the quality. These headphones work seamlessly with XBox consoles and in fact, I just upgraded to the new Xbox series X and they are awesome with that console. Not only do they sound good and are flawless, they are intuitive enough to allow for bluetooth connectivity or USB dongle connectivity. The sound is great and there is no interruption and best part is they are wireless and sturdy not like other cheap feel versions of gaming headsets. In all these are top notch and from a brand I had never heard of. Really enjoy the experience with these things. Comparably to the other brands they are surprisingly reasonably priced and also exceeded expectations when it came to ease of use and compatibility to the system I have so I would highly recommend this device for others looking for a headset for their gaming systems.

Another great system from Dell for an all in one
on June 23, 2022
Posted by: recruiter89
I have owned a few Dell systems in the past and they are always reliable and 100% consistent and this system is no different. I was a bit surprised to see the price drop a bit for this system since it is everything you need with the latest updated processor chips, speeds and storage plus a wide 16" screen which is foldable and easily turns into a touchscreen tablet which I dont plan on using it for.
The system is seamless and is loaded with Windows 11 and a very smooth, fast i5 Processor which is plenty adequate for business or personal use. The graphics card and screen pixels are decent and this actually was better than the Microsoft Surface 4 Laptop I was previously using. For the new price, this is the best all in one you can probably buy right now. The keyboard makes it easy to type on and it is also easy to use the surface mouse and the battery power is also decent for this size of laptop. I added an external keyboard and mouse and they connected seamlessly and without any issues.

Outstanding Vacuum/Mop Combo, Tineco does it again
on June 10, 2022
Posted by: recruiter89
I have owned the S3 model previously and looked for a combination vacuum and mop and this one hits all points. Where Dyson is the king of suction stick vacuums, Tineco is the king of mop/vacuums and their electronics are so intuitive and precise, it does the job and then some. This device has a screen actually showing you how dirty your floors are this device similar to the S3 works on wood and tile and cleans and suctions all of the dirt into a separate dirty water tank. The one issue I see with any of these mop vacs is that the dirty water tank still needs to be handled and emptied and you still have to physically pick out the hair and grime from the filter areas which is pretty nasty so they need to work on the design to allow the water to wash this away. The other issue I see with these mop/vacs is the fact you are restricted to using Tineco cleaning solution only which is kind of a pain and is not always easy to find except on Amazon. I dont mind buying it but you should be able to use any type of cleaning solution to clean. However the job this device does on your floors is beautiful and it works great. I like the ease of use and it includes three roller heads, a cleaning brush and a charging stand which also has voice activation, Wifi connection and it cleans the vac after every use.

Easy to set up and use, plug and play efficiency!

As with all Logitech products, they are downright quality made and the company just seems to know how to build devices that cater to what the consumer needs. This product is no different and is handy when it comes to putting light in front of you while streaming on any of the social portals or podcasts or live streams. IT is easy to set up and as with any Logitech product, its plug and play and quickly syncs with your system, either PC or Mac and is easy to manipulate the setting to your liking. It is the right size as well and mounts easily behind any laptop or monitor screen. I would highly recommend this product.

Awesome mouse and top notch like all products
on January 22, 2022
Posted by: recruiter89
from Boston, MA
One thing Logitech is known for is quality products and I own not only computer products but also their line of remotes for TV and devices. This device is no different and is an intuitive, responsive mouse just like the other products. It does have a dongle USB to plug in which can be an issue if you are using this on a MAC. The only issue with Logitech mouse products is they need to come up with bluetooth devices rather than relying on the older USB dongles. This creates issues and the dongle can run the risk of getting lost and misplaced etc.

Awesome device, I use it literally daily
on November 18, 2021
Posted by: recruiter89
from Boston, MA
I have owned a bunch of Ninja products for the kitchen, from the slim design pizza all in one oven, to numerous blenders and choppers etc. The issue with Ninja, its hit or miss literally in the kitchen which is unfortunate. This device, however I call it a star and have owned the previous model 6 in one grill and it was awesome. This model is a bit different and you can actually grill, griddle or air fry easily and you can surprisingly grill with the cover down or open smokelessly. This gadget is a bit bulky like the last unit and there is no possible was you can store this on your counter top, however its easy to lug around and is spacious enough to add plenty of meat and other ingredients. I like the fact the grill snaps into place and Ninja was smart to get rid of the corded thermometer since it didnt cook meats to perfection, it was a most of the time case. I like this unit and I think Ninja really shines with devices like this. They should stick to this type of tool and not others.

Sort of a clumsy device, not sure the audience
on November 18, 2021
Posted by: recruiter89
from Boston, MA
I have owned full size Microsoft Surfaces and always gravitated back to an iPad. Granted the iPad did not have a mouse and was not windows based which made it less than a comparison to a mini laptop. However over time, its starting to come around. This device is the size of a large iPhone and it folds in half vertically, allowing for two screens with a on screen keyboard. This is either wifi or 5G cellular and has full windows capability. Its not really an iPad mini nor is a phone, its more comparable to an old style Blackberry device when Blackberry released the touchscreen version back in 2008 through Verizon. Without a built in pencil, this felt clumsy and clunky and I was not even sure what I was intending on using this for since its too small to replace a laptop but too large to replace a phone and is not necessarily a tablet in my eyes. For the whopping price tag just because it has a Microsoft label on it was a bit extreme for me. I would pass on this device.

The top of the line projector on all fronts
on November 3, 2021
Posted by: recruiter89
from Boston, MA
Lets do a quick scan of home theater backyard or otherwise projectors and you can see from the lineup at Best Buy or even other places I wont mention here, there are your real top of the line progressive fully functioning projectors for real 4k high def use and then there are your cheap knock offs that will certainly get the job done, however are not even in the same league as the top pros. Epson seems to own the home projector market and for a company that is known for mostly printers and scanners, they make a heck of a great projector. I have owned one other Epson and it was great, but nothing in comparison to this bad boy. This is the crem dela crem of devices, loaded with the latest and greatest technology, Android backed, high definition complete with various services on board plus it is so picture perfect clear, I was surprised I was looking at a projector. Its simple to set up and get going and has easy to follow directions, plus its perfect for backyard viewing or presentations or streaming your favorite show right on the white wall I highly recommend this unit.

You shouldn’t have to settle for a watered-down version of your favorite iced coffee at home.

An automatic bean-to-cup machine, Dinamica offers “one-touch” beverages: espresso, long espresso, drip-style coffee, and a new feature - Over Ice, just select the strength to your liking. To deliver the freshest brew possible, the Dinamica’s revolutionary technology grinds the perfect amount of your favorite beans leaving no residual coffee in the brewing unit. Also, with an integrated Premium Adjustable Frother, you can create Italian classic cappuccino with a dryer milk foam texture or choose the Hot Milk setting for your latte. And cleanup is a snap, taking half the time of other machines - just pop out the drip tray, and drop it in the dishwasher.

Top echelon of coffee/espresso makers
on October 29, 2021
Posted by: recruiter89
from Boston, MA
There are the run of the mill coffee and espresso makers out there, made of plastic housings, cheaply put together and really not sturdy alternatives that do not feel like quality for the money. Bring on this top shelf, luxury coffee/espresso maker with all the bells and whistles of professional coffee house real barista grade quality device. This thing is so comprehensive it can do everything a Starbucks Barista can do and even more right from home. Its a pretty large appliance and it barely fit on my counter top. Matter of fact, its almost too large to be a permanent fixture on my counter. However, it makes coffee and espresso and even iced latte drinks with ease with intuitive digital controls and an easy to use set up. Delicious beverages come out of this device and I was pleasantly surprised. I am unsure if the price tag is worth what you get from this item however since after all it is just a coffee maker, but if you want the best, you need to spend a little more.

5 out of 5Unbelievable picture, crisp and clear! Awesome!
By recruiter89

I just received this TV today and first off delivery was somewhat smooth with one or two bumps but nothing big. This TV is everything you hear about minus the silly speakers along the side bar edges. The 4K is something to see and with this set buying the Media Player along with it is essential since you won't have to bring a technician to upgrade your TV like the XBR65X900A. This set is already up to date and has the latest upgrades. Within 10 minutes I was up and running and turning this on it literally blew me away. The 4K and even the HD are beautiful with no sign of pixels and the 65" shows this off even more than I would imagine the 55". What I noticed is that Sony did a very good job of streamlining their applications and internet content and now has tons more similar to a Roku box. Also the menus and preferences are picture icons and are larger. They also did away with the flat stand and went to a chrome heavy duty ring which is heavier but they did do away with a feature I enjoyed which was the tilt screen and now it is totally vertical which I can live with.
The 4K content on the media player is quite impressive with all sorts of demos of how cool this set looks and they also loaded up 10 movies in 4K of all new titles and TV shows to show off how glamorous 4K looks. For this price, the picture needs to look pristine and it does and was worth every penny. I am very satisfied with this purchase. One thing, be careful ordering from Amazon when it comes to Ceva shipping, They came through in the end but the tracking was sub par and never clued me in to where this item was the entire time to delivery window. For those other reviews saying this is not worth it and not ready for prime time, just wait, Sony is not a dumb company,...remember they were the first to jump on board with Blu Ray loading it into the new PS3s. 4K is here to stay and you won't be sorry. I have owned 4 Sony TVs and not one has done me wrong. They also throw in 1 year of Hulu Plus and Netflix streaming so you can't go wrong there.

5 out of 5Big Differences between 2nd gen Nests! Great!
By recruiter89
from Boston, MA
I had just installed 2 2nd generation Nests and 3 weeks later this was released so I boxed them up and returned both to Best Buy and swapped them out for this generation version. Those of you who think there are no big differences in generations, you are dead wrong. This generation of Nest is thinner, larger more bold screen and has a Farsight setting which enhances the entire dial, noticing you from about 20 feet away looking at the thermostat. Plus it seems more intuitive and is just sleeker looking. What happened was Google bought these guys and said, lets update this product to make it look like a modern product put out by a Google company. Plus this syncs nicely with all 9 of my 2nd gen Nest Protects and is just a beautiful product. So go ahead and trade in your 2nd gen Nest Thermostat because you won't be sorry!
