Smart & Sleek Approach For a Cool iRobot
on May 28, 2019
Posted by: Txstatesal
from Austin, TX
Not a newbie to the iRobot family but I have to say I am sold on what iRobot is capable of. My previous experience was with a robot that didn't pack a punch like the s9+!
Unlike my previous less powerful model this one does wonders. As we speak I am in awe of how it can recognize different floor types. I've got tile, and area rugs (layered for style) and the motor revs up to attack the areas that require more attention.
Of course I love the dirt bin that empties itself but that is an extra bell and whistle. I really wanted to have one robot for the upstairs and one for the more trafficked area downstairs.
The feature of mapping out the home is amazing. I can tell the robot to focus on one area and not waste battery. Which brings me to quiet mode, where I plan on setting up early morning clean ups so that I wake up to a tidy living area. My dog has no qualms with robots and he's a Frenchie who attacks handheld vacuums so he just lays around and lets it do it's just until it wants to bump him and then he moves.
A good sidenote for anyone looking for a robot make sure to know that robots are great companions for upkeep but don't expect not to have to hand vacuum. I am sure one day robots will get there and this one is well on it's way but these guys are for complimenting your daily struggle like me and maintaining the house's floors.
The large advantages for me were the smart app, the dirt bin that empties itself over and over again, the battery life, the quiet mode and finally the motor. You can literally hear it rev up when it's focused on working on an area. Love my iRobot s9+!

Belkin Delivering with Power
on May 20, 2019
Posted by: Txstatesal
from Austin, TX
This is my second or third Belkin charger and it is so cool!
Friends joke I’m like the parent who comes prepped for anything with wires, power packs and more. This watch charger will confirm that this summer with my body pack.
Amusement parks become less amusing when you don’t have battery for your cameras, phone or watch but that won’t be me this summer.
It’s super easy to use, you charge the pack and place your Apple Watch on the pack when you need some charge. My favorite part is how compact it is compared to my previous charger.
Definitely needed for the person on the go who wants to keep things compact!

A Capacity to Store Everything
on May 9, 2019
Posted by: Txstatesal
from Austin, TX
This isn’t my first Seagate and I have to say it won’t be my last!
This version is sleek, slim as a deck of cards and packs a lot of storage.
I used to have a huge external hard drive with lots of wires and to see the technology and ease of use in this Seagate is such an upgrade!
I travel lots and love using my hard drive to store pictures from my trips and movies for viewing.
So if you’re a person who wants to slide this in a small pack, and need storage on the go this is for you.
Lastly, it uses USB-C for data transfer! So a smooth and quicker way to move things. It’s awesome and a big thumbs up!

Momager & Dads Unite-Sorry Kids
on May 2, 2019
Posted by: Txstatesal
from Austin, TX
For the parents who know their kids have access to every device, you want them to know and live with technology but you also want to reign it in!
The Circle Home is just that and more. My favorite part is that as a youngster it was easy to take away my tech but my parents never understood how to reward me with time and my toys. This cube does! You can set rewards for a profile on your network as a gift for doing chores or homework which is neat!
We have a small daycare in another town and so we will probably add this to the center. I can see all the squirming that the kids will do when they aren't listening and realize their internet has been limited.
There is so much balance to be had with the Circle through lots of features like GPS tracking a little one in case they are playing in the backyard or viewing their history to make sure that they are researching their homework topics.
Not just for kids though, you can add teen and adult profiles so the Circle Home has applicable features for each person in the home.
It was so easy to set up and it doesn't need to stay wired through ethernet either so you can have it look like a small art piece on a book shelf or side table for conversation as well.
Now you do have to pay for access to premeium features after a year but that would give me enough time to evaluate the value for the whole family this device brings.
Ultimately a game changer for a busy household where no one wants to forfeit screen time. Now it is not an option, if mom and dad choose!

Family and friends won't stop asking me to take their picture and if it was filled with endless film I sure would but it got to the point where I put this little winner away because I wanted to be able to choose when to snap a pic.
I love instant film cameras and cameras of all sorts because they all have great uses. For instance the Cliq came in handy recently on my way to Disney World when I realized how easy it would be to get my pictures fast and on the spot. As opposed to the person who works there and then going to find the venue that develops them.
The color of yellow is just as vibrant as the picture online, the pictures are of good quality, the fact that I can add a SD card is a perk and I hope the buy a neck strap to take this camera to the next festival here in town!
It doesn't have a lcd screen to review pictures but that's okay because this is more for point, shoot and printing.
I am so ecstatic about the Cliq and I am looking forward to many weekend trips with it.

Love Google but Unefficient
on May 1, 2019
Posted by: Txstatesal
from Austin, TX
So let me start with the funky bad part of the Roav Bolt and that is the clunky look after my auxiliary cord is plugged in to create Bluetooth with my other FM transmitter in another charging port.
I'm very bummed that it looks bad after all of it is set up. I got this because I am someone looking for that bridge of a product that turns my car into a Bluetooth enabled car without having to buy the feature in a car. Now more and more cars are coming standard with this feature but I am not in the market for a car.
On the other hand the assistant works just like my Google Home products which is awesome. I say "okay Google" and away we go with the endless things I can get done.
So thumbs up to Anker for realizing there was a space that still didn't have Google in.
The design right out of the box is neat and it looks and feels swanky. I did have trouble setting it up with the application but got that out of the way after about 6 minutes.
So if you're a person who has a Bluetooth enabled car I would say this would compliment your needs well but for someone like me looking for that bridge I'm just not sure this has value for me.

Big Speaker in a Small Package
on April 11, 2019
Posted by: Txstatesal
from Austin, TX
Nerd alert! I get giddy about big things in small packages because they are unassuming. However, this suave speaker with a big personality will stand out to you. I like to run it through a few of my favorite songs to test sound. Elvis sounded like he was in the room singing It's Now or Never where the guitar strumming sounded great, Avicci's, Pure Grinding also sounded great. That says a lot because that song musically starts off slow and as it progresses your ears are hit with vocals and all kinds of variables of sound.
It is day one with my XB12 and I literally can't wait for next month's trip to the West Coast. Sony definitely delivered here. I have other large speakers where I expected good sound but the technology in this speaker is great and the battery life is long enough. No to mention it's water proof and has a neat loop to latch on to anything.
I'm a guy who tosses things in a bag and heads out for a weekend into the unknown which sometimes means going to the lake, floating the river, working from home on the deck or just sitting around a fire with friends. The XB12 will pair well with all of those activities and more. In fact my favorite part is how small it is to sit by my hotel room bed and I can turn on my favorite playlist of sleep sounds (game changer)!
I like to have all my gadgets fit in one tech bag so I can easily grab and go for the necessary activity which is why I pictured it with my other stuff.
If it helps even my Frenchie loves it as I was napping I turned to see that the rain storm sounds were so real they put him to rest right next to me and he's a busy body. If he likes it then I am sold!

Bring on Tailgate Season and Karaoke Nights!
on April 4, 2019
Posted by: Txstatesal
from Austin, TX
Sony is grinding out some fun speakers lately! The PG10’s top features are: built in rechargeable battery for tailgates, microphone plug, cup holders, and the crisp sound/bass!
So this speaker reminded me of Friday nights in my hometown where we’d tune into the radio station that shared the scores of rival teams! Then there are college alumni tailgates which are going to be a blast with the sound this delivers.
You can add your phone via Bluetooth, add a microphone and place your tablet on top for karaoke night and attach it to a stand if you want.
My family and I usually take river trips and dock at the base of the river and just listen to music. I’m excited that I can also use the speaker to charge my phone in case it runs low on battery.
Overall worth adding this to your household because it will come in handy this summer more than you know! Just posted up outside with some drinks to enjoy the spring night!

Definitely Feel Like a Pro!
on March 20, 2019
Posted by: Txstatesal

Turtle Beach Elite Pro:
Opening the Elite Pros was very similar to watch aunt’s of mine open expensive bag presents and smirking.
Before taking it out of the box I knew this was going to literally be game changing! It is!
Off the bat I’ll address sound quality; it is mesmerizing in the sense that normal earbuds made me think I heard everything but then I put these on and I could hear the direction people were walking up to me in my Battle Royals rounds! The sound of missals was distinct that I could win a battle before someone else walked up to me!
It is packaged like the luxury product it is with nice and easy set ups and not a lot of fuss!
I won’t lie having to synchronize the volume module to a phone, which connects to the headphones, which also connects to the console seems dated but that’s the only qualm.
I’ve already played more than enough rounds to know I’m okay forefeiting my old headsets to these because they are far better quality all around! The ear cups are comfortable, the white design is very minimalist storage is easy since the wire are thin and if I choose to do so I can personalize the ear cups with magnetic plates.
If you’re serious about games then get these, they serve their purpose and have hidden gems built in. I do like the mute button on the wire and that my mic is flexible and not stationary by my mouth all the time. Friends said I sounded great and wanted to know what model of Turtle Beach I had so I bet they’ll jump on the band wagon and get some as well. Alright took a sec to write this, back to my game!

Beautiful & Music to My Ears!
on March 13, 2019
Posted by: Txstatesal
from Austin, TX
Marshall has a distinct and rich design in their speakers which is why I have been wanting one for years! The Acton II comes with its awesome speaker design and Amazon Alexa which I thought was a great compliment to my home. The built in assistant makes the speaker unassumingly helpful while not looking fussy on my cabinet. The microphone picks up my voice from a good distance and is clear when confirming what I directed.
The range of sound fills the room to the quality and parameters that I set because of the dials for treble and bass which is great. I went from playing Elvis’ “Stand by Me” and to Marshmallow for a little fun, and finally some Manchester Orchestra for the guitar riffs and acoustics.
The aesthetics and feel of the speaker are a good piece of art to sit in a room. It looks like it is a vintage piece of equipment but brings out the soul of music and with Alexa built-in, you can shop and order without the speaker standing out like a sore thumb. A quick side note, you can download the Marshall application that helps you tailor your speaker from your phone so that was a huge plus! I can’t wait for my next dinner with friends to play some music in the background and get people chatting!
