This tiny keyboard is a little beefier than I was expecting as far as weight. It actually felt heavier than my full size wireless keyboard, but without all the other buttons. The keys are super sensitive, almost too sensitive as I tend to rest my pinky on the ‘A’ and get a random ‘a’ here and there as I am typing. The keys are smooth and barely make any sound, but provide enough feedback to know you are typing. Even without the other keys missing, the FN provides even more than your typical keyboard, like cycling through colors and recording macros. With the iCue software you can go in and customize pretty much everything with the keyboard, but there might be issues.
For the most part the keyboard has worked as intended, however, through my testing there has been a bug identified that will require a firmware update, once they provide it. As of this review, if you change the lighting through iCue and then use the FN key, which will highlight all the keys that work with the FN, it will freeze the keyboard. This ends up requiring you to unplug/plug the keyboard back up. So, if you run into that issue, just know, they are aware of it and should have a fix in the near future.
Other than that, I have come to like this little keyboard. It even comes with a different space bar pending your desire for a lot of light or just a “regular” style key. aThe removable braided USB A to USB C cable makes it so that you can easily pack this keyboard away and not worry about wearing the cable down. You can save your customizations directly to the keyboard so that you don’t need the iCue software on every device, so you can hook it up to any device and show your style.
Overall, despite the little bug I ran into, I find this to be a well built keyboard. Once you get used to where the extra keys are used under the FN, it makes it so you don’t have to move around the keyboard as much. The iCue software that enhances the keyboard even more takes a bit to get used to, but pretty much gives you all the customization you could imagine.

Lightweight and other stuff
on July 18, 2023
Posted by: DavidJr
Webroot is a simple lightweight antivirus/malware protection software. However, this Premium + Identity Protection just adds more to it. Basically you get an added annual premium account to LastPass and a simplified version of Allstate’s Identity Protection. The SecureAnywhere software can be used on most systems, Windows, Mac, Chrome, Android, iOS and as a browser extension on Chrome, Edge and Firefox. Compared to other AV packages I have tried, this one has been the least intrusive as far as not popping up with advertisements for other packages or reminding me I should activate something. It was just installed and started protecting.
Though it is simple, that is kind of a downfall to this package as well. Nothing seems to be well explained and even their tutorials page just gives steps on what to do but you have no idea what you are doing with it. The user interface just feels old, but it works, so I guess there's no need to add flashy buttons, but what is it doing? Even going through the advanced settings it is just a bunch of check boxes and no real details, like adding your own rules to the firewall.
Example, the Utilities tab, you have ‘Optimize Now’ and ‘Run System Analyzer’. You have to run the analyzer first and it gives a report, but all you can do is save or close the report. So, guess you select ‘Optimize Now’ and then it runs and done. Now you are “optimized” with some amount of MB recovered. Yet, I run the analyzer again and have the similar warnings with no suggested on what to do with them.
Then setting up the extra premium features, like Allstate Identity Protection and Last Pass are just redirects to their respective sites in which I had an issue with Allstate setup not finishing for me, so I could not enable all protections till that was resolved. But, there is no real detail on what to expect from either of these. It appears that you get a premium account of LastPass, but then says 1 of 10, so I guess you can have 10 unique accounts of LastPass premium. Which is nice for a family, but then why not have a family account where you can manage and share passwords with each other?
Allstate Identity Protection, once you give it all the personal information like emails, SSN, credit card and account numbers claims it is monitoring and protecting, but does not appear to look back on anything. For example, I know for a fact one of my monitored emails has been compromised on the dark web, yet it shows as nothing detected. Literally 2 days after setting it up, I get a dark web warning from a different service I signed up for about a site leak with that same email. I’m not going to run my credit to see it that works, but I have a free service that has provided on the spot checks when that has happened before.
Then you have the Carbonite for backup but that just redirects you to their site and plans. The software says “Included with your subscription” but the account site says “You do not currently have a backup subscription”. You try the trial for 15 days and it requires you to install additional software to use it anyways and the SecureAnywhere software still thinks you need a separate Carbonite login.
Overall, if you don’t already have some identity protection set up, don’t have a good password manager, and need some simple virus protection on multiple devices, this isn’t a bad deal. For one, you are going to need Last Pass as you are going to end up creating a new account for each version of WebRoot as for some reason your Windows account won’t work on mobile and you need to set up secure passwords for everything else. I do like it being less intrusive than some of the other big brands, but it just doesn't seem so premium when you are just sent to a website that sends you to other sites.

The Sonos 300 speaker is a pretty hefty speaker as it is, but to put it on top of a thin looking pole just feels sketchy. However, these stands hold it in place. These are really heavy and a little bit of a workout to put together, but not difficult. The instructions are pretty simple, but feel they could have done a little better on the steps and labeling. All the parts are in there for a pair of either the Sonos 300 or Sonos 100 speakers. The only thing different is the bracket that holds the speaker and the screws to connect it to the speaker. With a phillips head screwdriver, there are only a few things to attach, tuck in the wires and you're done. There are carpet spikes or rubber feet for the base, a few rubber pieces to keep the wire in the channel and a little piece of plastic called the trigger that you want to keep in a memorable place. Adjusting the speaker higher is simply done by lifting the speaker up. However, to lower it you need that trigger inserted to press and let it down. As for stability of the stand, it does wobble a bit, but I pushed it around a bit and it never felt like it was going to fall over without some real force even at its highest. Meaning the floor shaking from someone jumping around or a slight elbow bump isn’t likely to knock it over.
Overall, the weight of the base is certainly doing its job in holding the Sonos 300 in a stable position. In all actuality it seems to have improved the sound from the speaker as it is not bouncing audio off of the surface it was originally sitting on. If you ever get bored and feel like working out though, you essentially have a 24 lbs barbell that can play music (joking).

Just needs 1 part to make it perfect
on June 16, 2023
Posted by: DavidJr
I’ve been through many different vacuums, but this was my first Dyson and it seems to live up to its hype. Unpacking the box was like a little mini game, finding all the little parts in their own little cardboard holders. I didn’t even realize it came with so many parts. But, getting up and running was a breeze.
The first thing I went to was my carpet that just attracts the shepherd's hair like it is trying to weave a new carpet. One pass and instant difference. With my other vacuum I would have to go over it 5-6 times or even grab the hand held attachments. Ok, I figure, it’s a new vacuum, clearly that is why it is doing better. I’ve been doing my house and my dad’s house for a few weeks now and still looking good.
The rest of my house is hard floor and the carbon fiber head with the “Fluffy Optics” is perfect. That little green light really does expose the stuff on the floor that you don’t normally see. Meanwhile, noticing the difference on the floor with every pass. Unlike the main carpet head though, this one does collect a bit of hair on the ends.
The rest of the included parts are great for all the detail cleaning, but like most vacuums these days, you don’t get much space to store them. There are 2 spots on the wall mount, but only the skinny parts can clip there, and there is a piece to snap 2 to the main wand, but also, restricted to the smaller pieces. The crevice tool is interesting, with its own LED lighting the way into those dark areas, but it has air holes on the side that can’t be closed off when you want that full power at the end. This is also where I feel you need to get 1 more piece to make it perfect. Sold separately in their store, the extension hose makes using these small tools so much easier. Trying to lift the whole unit with the stiff attachment to dust a shelf is a bit difficult. Using it to clean a car in that confined space, even more so.
When done with cleaning, emptying the container is pretty simple, provided you don’t have a bunch of dog hair now stuck in the grill. However, cleaning it is easy enough. The directions to do so are best shown through the app, but annoying as all the directions are videos with subtitles. No talking, just pointing directions. It would be so much better if right below these, they just give the whole transcript so I don’t have to sit through minutes of video just to find 1 simple thing.
Battery life is all dependent on how you use it. On max power, 15 minutes at best, but leaving it as auto, you get about 45-60 minutes, pending how much it increases power from detection of particles. The auto adjusting of power always seems to be a couple seconds behind, but if you take your time, it works out. If you want to do it quickly and make sure it has the most power the whole time, boost gets it done, you only have 15 minutes though.
Overall, I’m pretty impressed with the power of this vacuum. All the attachments, and there are plenty more online, really help you do what you want to get done. It is a bit big compared to some other cordless vacs, but I haven’t seen any compare in power.

I’ve had many security camera systems and have reviewed at least 4 other Swann systems and this one just feels like they went backwards.
First off, let me get some positives out of the way. I really like the new dome style cameras. They look less gawky than the bullet cameras, feel very solid and work really nice for compact areas like indoors or on your porch. They feel more secure with their mounting style, once you figure it out, as there are no directions anywhere on how to install them. The IR lights on these cameras are really bright, however, pointed to the center so it looks like a hot spot on night vision. The image is pretty sharp and the colors really pop during the day, but you can tell it is upscaled 4K. See attached images. Compared to previous systems, you can at least see 3 cameras on the mainstream at the same time or playback up to 3 at the same time. Like their other systems, there are not enough resources to view more, while the others could only display two. You can view them all on the substream, the lower resolution, on a single screen though.
Now, the reason I feel they went backwards and question the label of “master”. Well, their other NVR systems allow for 2 way audio, this setup only allows for recording, once you enable it. These cameras have only 80 degrees field of view, compared to 90 on their bullet cameras. There is no white LED that could alert others of the camera or trip color night recording. Their other systems had the analytics ability to do face recognition or human & vehicle detection, this NVR has the menu option but states “Connected IPC does not support Intelligent Analytics”. It only records by default PIR motion and Alarm. So, you end up with a lot of general alerts for the flag waving in the wind or a car driving by, you have no idea which one it might be. As with their other systems, I do not like the reliability of their PIR motion detection. You might catch something as it will pre-record, or you might miss the most important part because it just decided there wasn’t enough motion. I prefer enabling the “normal” recording so that you catch all activity, 24/7, or you can do less on the schedule if you want. This way you won’t miss anything, but then playback becomes a bit harder on the mobile app and you will only have about 7 days worth of recording on the HDD.
Speaking of the mobile app, I find it slow and only useful for viewing live video. The notifications, if you select them, take you to live view, which if you click on it the moment it pops up is good. However, with the amount of false notifications you are likely to get, you will probably go to check on it later and you have to go to playback and find which event it might have been. That is provided the events even load for you as it might take a few refreshes. Then, all the options in the application are pretty limited. The only one that gives more control is modes, where you can change motion sensitivity by editing each one. The rest are all just for information, like naming the channels, removing the device or getting device details. If the cameras supported it, then you could do 2 way audio through the live view as well, but these do not. They do offer Secure+ Plans which claim to give smarter alerts and rich notifications, but then the small print says “Swann Wireless or Wi-Fi Cameras”. So, essentially you would be subscribing for extended warranty and insurance on the device. You can, however, set up cloud storage through Dropbox, but the 2TB HDD should be plenty and you can always back up clips to an external drive.
Overall, I don’t want to say this is a bad system, as it does a fair job in capturing decent video and personally I like NVR systems better than wireless or DVR as you can get continuous recording. However, besides the style of the camera, I don’t have anything that would make me recommend this system over others, even some of Swann’s previous models.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

First off, I have never had a fan that came with a storage bag, let alone was designed to break down unless it was for cleaning. I found it kind of strange that it came in parts, but makes sense for shipping, but then meant to come back apart for storage. For the most part it is simple to assemble and break back down, but the plastic just feels cheap, like it is going to break after a few times. The weakest part feels like the base which keeps the whole fan balanced in the first place.
Function of the fan is pretty standard for tower fans with 4 speeds plus power boost, oscillation and sleep timer. The LED screen shows status and fades out after a while as it is pretty bright. The strange thing is, looking at the display it almost looks like it was intended to have a 6th speed, but considering what it sounds like in Pb mode, I don’t think it would have been a good idea. What I mean by that sound is it is pretty loud for a fan and very inconsistent. Like my best fan can make some noise, but it sounds like a smooth hum, something to sleep by. This one just sounds rough and don’t even attempt the breeze mode. I have never seen a fan cut off completely to simulate a breeze. Oscillating and varying speed, sure, but to just completely cut off and go back to making the noise. makes it more disturbing than it is relaxing. It does come with a remote, but it is an IR remote. Meaning you have to point it directly at the screen on the fan to make it work.
As mentioned above, disassembling other fans is usually for cleaning; however, I don’t see any way to get inside to the blades of this fan. If it turns out like the other fans in my house that run practically 24/7, dust will build up on the blades after a while, reducing efficiency.
Overall, I don’t think this is a bad fan, but it just feels cheaply made. I personally would not recommend it to a friend as there are others out there of similar function, just they don’t break down and fit in a bag.

General use touchscreen laptop
on April 21, 2023
Posted by: DavidJr
If you are looking for a laptop that can do general every day tasks with snap in its step, this Acer Aspire 3 fits the bill. This is a capable laptop with AMD Ryzen 5 7520U, Radeon Graphics, 8GB RAM, 512GB NVMe SSD and 10 point touchscreen. I have never had a need to put all 10 fingers on the screen, but it registers them individually.
With two USB 3.2 Type A and one USB Type C with DP, HDMI 2.1, Bluetooth 5.2, 3.5mm headphone/mic port and 802.11ax wireless you can be connected to pretty much anything. Compact keyboard layout with 17 key numpad that takes a little adjusting to get used to the compact format with no backlight.
The display is sharp and crisp, but not very bright and has a very small sweet spot as far as viewing angle. Even though it is touchscreen, it does not fold all the way around to be treated like a tablet. Sound from the speakers is really tiny, my phone sounds louder. Speaking of tiny, the power adapter is worryingly tiny. I have had many laptops over the years and the power port is usually the first thing to cause issues. This one is so small that it feels like it will be quicker than others.
This is the type of laptop that is perfect for someone that just needs something that can access the internet and do common productivity application type work. Not really powerful enough to do anything like major video editing or gaming but still snappy enough to maintain multiple tabs while browsing. It even comes with its own padded storage bag.
Overall, not a bad laptop for someone just starting out with needing one for something like classwork or video conference meetings. Slightly annoying with the Acer and Mcafee ads popping up from time to time but easily removed.

Can’t tell they are Turtle Beach?
on April 21, 2023
Posted by: DavidJr
A common troupe among gamers are the players that play with Turtle Beach headsets. Usually they have a bad echo or the quality of their mic is noticeable. This is usually because Turtle Beach tends to make low cost/entry level gaming headsets. Typically not the best, but they function and don’t break the bank. Well, Turtle Beach really broke out of the box on these. They aren’t very budget friendly and well, no one could tell they were Turtle Beach just by hearing them. Even their build quality when asked of others looked like some other brands.
These particular headphones will connect to practically anything wirelessly. Either with the USB dongle on Xbox or PC mode or anything that supports Bluetooth at the same time. This means you can technically play on the Xbox while listening to your phone or even another console. This means taking a call without needing to remove your headset, however, the mic will take priority to the Bluetooth device, for example, when in a phone call.
By default the headset is set with their signature sound pattern for audio and microphone and the buttons and rotator wheel all have specific functions. However, with the Turtle Beach Audio Hub app on your phone connected via Bluetooth you can customize practically everything. Customize the EQ for sound and microphone separately for Xbox/PC and Bluetooth, adjust the noise gate and mic monitoring levels or reprogram the function of the wheel and center button to do something else, like chat boost on/off instead of active noise cancellation on/off.
The wireless dongle also functions as the battery charger and an USB extension so you don’t lose a USB port on a device that might already be limited. The hot swap of the battery that lasts well over 12 hours keeps the session going with only a minor interruption of exchanging the battery. You get at least 30 minutes of tone warning before you get the final voice prompt telling you it is powering down.
Now, don’t get me wrong, this headset is the best I have seen of Turtle Beach and has more capability than some others I have seen in this same range. However, there are some quirks about it that I hope they can improve on in their next iteration. The rotator wheel on the side feels cheap compared to the rest of the leather like headset and could have really used some texturing to make rotation easier. The active noise canceling is noticeable, but in quiet situations sounds a bit too active. Like it is making more noise than the passive seal of the headphones were preventing already. In quiet situations you can hear the headphones sort of come on and off between sounds. Like on the Xbox menu for example, when you change tiles, you can hear more sound than just the noise made by the Xbox. Sound quality is decent, but sounds very mid ranged, even when treble and bass are maxed out. The ‘superhuman’ option makes for higher pitched sounds more clear, but in all the other settings it just doesn’t have a deep or crisp sound to it. Then, just a minor annoyance, but I get the power saving it is intended for, if you are playing on Xbox and turn off the Xbox, it turns off the headset unless you are actively listening to something on the Bluetooth connected device. So, for instance, go to turn off the Xbox and listen to my phone,If I wasn’t already listening to my phone before I turned off the Xbox, I have to turn the headset back on. Also, though not really noticeable in most situations, there is a very minor lag over wireless compared to another wireless headset I have used. The ONLY time I have noticed it is when watching someone talk in a video. I’m talking like a millisecond difference which I haven’t really noticed while gaming. Lastly, I had to restart my Xbox or PC when switching the USB connection over a couple times now. Like, when it is first connected the headset is not detected until a restart of the device is complete.
Overall this headset is deserving of their Pro label. The features go well beyond many other headsets and if you want the most connectability, the Xbox version is the way to go. If I could rate half stars on here I would drop half for the minor issues mentioned above. Otherwise, I have had many hours enjoying this headset and will probably have many more to go.

With up to 3,000 PSI at 2.0 max GPM, the Greenworks GPW3001 pressure washer is the most powerful residential electric pressure washer available. With a powerful 14-amp TRUBRUSHLESS motor, axial cam pump, and hassle-free, push-button starts, you’ll get to work fast; just plug the 35-foot power cord into any typical exterior household outlet for quick starts with no priming, no choke, and no pull cord. This quiet-running, lightweight, compact, easy-to-store pressure washer features a rugged steel frame and wheel barrow design, thermal relief valve that purges hot water from the pump to cool it down during constant use, and intelligent PCBA technology that automatically senses which pressure washer nozzle is being used, and adjusts motor speeds to auto-adapt for more pressure and water flow for maximum cleaning power. With a 25-foot, non-marring, high-pressure hose, oversized one-gallon soap tank with built-in detergent system, and on-board accessory storage with 15-, 25- and 40-degree nozzles, turbo nozzle, and soap nozzle tips, it’s versatile, portable, and powerful.

With a cross-tip screwdriver and some minor assembly you will be power washing more things that you realized you had. Having had a previous electric power washer of much lower pressure, I found this one to be a nice replacement. Usually the biggest difference between gas and electric is that the electric ones are usually 2000 PSi or less. Though not noticeable just by spraying, I can certainly say this one is more powerful than my previous 1450 PSI electric and seems on par with my neighbors 3200 gas powered one. It also claims it only uses 1.1gpm, which is less than my lower pressure machine.
Once you have everything connected, a simple single button for power and a selection of the tip and off you go. The 15, 25 and 45 tips all have a similar feel to them with each just being broader. I feel that the most versatile tip is the turbo as it sprays very direct pressure in a circular pattern so you are not ripping through materials with a single high pressure stream. I have used it for pretty much all of the cleaning I have done so far and more to come. Concrete, pavement, vinyl siding, wood and my vehicle. I took some before/after pictures but I don’t feel they do it justice as you see the grime just peeling off of the surface. The low pressure tip, with soap purchased from the local hardware store, made even more of a difference on the vinyl siding, with a simple spray on, wait a few minutes and watch even more grime get removed with the pressure tip back on.
From my previous electric power washer, I would say the only thing I don’t like about this one, is that it is constantly running and spitting water out of a release valve while idle. It is more like a gas powered system in that manner, unlike others that just cut off seconds when released. However, that did mean it had full consistent pressure with each trigger squeeze and you aren’t going to run out of gas or pull the cord 100 times to get it started.
Overall, I do feel like this is a pro device and perfect for anyone that wants to powerwash anything. Simple to use and easy to store when you are done. The tips are pretty standard, so you could even get other attachments like the surface cleaner, provided it can handle the pressure. Plus, a 3/10 year warranty, I expect this to last a good while.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Enter the world of fully automatic espresso machines with the Philips 1200 Series Fully Automatic Espresso Machine with Milk Frother, Black - EP1220/04. Enjoy the delicious taste and aroma of coffee from fresh beans, at the perfect temperature, thanks to the intelligent brewing system. The Classic Milk Frother allows you to create a silky smooth cappuccino or latte macchiato with ease.

Nothing like a fresh ground and brewed coffee in your own house to your own liking. From grind density, aroma and water amount, you can fine tune the fresh ground coffee to find your perfect cup. Or, if you don’t have any whole beans, you can throw a scoop already ground in there instead.
It is recommended to brew at least 5 cups on initial setup, but it may take you a couple more tries to get it where you are looking. However, every single cup in the process has been amazing as nothing beats the aroma from fresh ground and brewed coffee. It does take a little bit for the machine to get to the point of brewing and don’t leave your cup on the tray during the process unless you want the little spurt of water it uses to clean the path. But, once it is good to go, just make your selection and hit play. If you select x2 cups, it literally brews two cups, grinding and all. Not like some machines that just push more water through the same set of beans.
Every cup comes out with a little froth look to it. But, with some milk in a different cup, you can use the steam to make your own fresh layer of creamy froth. The one thing that I wish could be adjusted is where you get hot water from. As it is, the hot water comes out from the froth line and keeps running till you stop it. If there was an option to make it in the normal cup position it would be even better. Speaking of the coffee spout, it is adjustable, but does not give a whole lot of space if you are trying to fill a tall travel cup.
Overall, this has made coffee even more enjoyable. It does require a little more maintenance than your average coffee pot, but worth it to have that fresh cup in a few button touches. Once you have the settings where you prefer them you have a perfect cup in a couple minutes.
I would recommend this to a friend!

1 out of 5Very unhappy about not getting the GearVR programs
By Sunshower
I tried many different ways to find out how to download the Gear VR programs by going to Samsung and Oculus online. All unsuccessful!!

Once you connect the Gear VR to the phone it starts a download for the software. There appears to be no other way to initiate the install. Once the Oculus software is installed, games and applications can be purchased through the application or from inside the store while wearing the device.

1 out of 5Need certain phones to use this.
By Donna
Wasn't told at time of purchase that certain phones were required to use this device. After purchase was when this was discovered. During this time we purchased a new home and was moving. After the move, tried to return the item because I didn't want to purchase a new phone. The only way the store would accept this return was to give me a gift card. I didn't want a gift card that I would most likely not use. Not happy with this policy at all. Also have made posts to FB in regards to your policy. I will not EVER enter your store again or make another purchase from you online. This is NOT how you treat a customer and expect more business from them.

It is labeled on the box and the site details

It says on the front and back of the box, "Compatible with Note5/S6 edge+/S6/S6 edge" and anywhere you look online it says it as well.

Is the RAM and SSD upgradable on this computer?
Yes, both the SSD and 1 module of RAM can be upgraded on this laptop. However, there is only one M.2 and one RAM slot, so the current devices will have to be removed. Max RAM is 24GB meaning a 16GB chip can replace the current 8GB as 8GB is on board.

Can the ram be upgraded? (To ASUS: There are currently two different answers given by you on this questionboard!)
The RAM can be upgraded. There is only 1 RAM slot though, with 8GB on board and 8GB that is user replaceable. This can be upgraded to 24GB total, so a 16GB PC4-3200 chip can be installed in place of the current 8GB.

Will this laptop support Xbox?
It is a Windows 10 computer and supports Xbox in the way that any other Windows 10 computer does. It does come with a month free of Xbox Game Pass which gives you access to PC Game Pass games. It does not play Xbox games that are not already in the Microsoft store for PC if that is what you are asking. You still need an Xbox if you want to play the game streamed to this computer.

Does it support controller use? (Xbox one, PS4, or custom versions of them)?
Any controller you can use with Windows 10 will work with this computer as is. Wirelessly some PlayStation controllers use Bluetooth and Xbox controllers usually need an adapter.
