Good Entry Level Earbuds
on April 18, 2021
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
The Skullcandy Dime True Wireless In-Ear Headphones are great if you are new to inner ear headphones. They are easy to charge and overall, they wear comfortably. Sound and clarity seem to be of good quality. These headphones are my first venture with Skullcandy, who seemingly manufactures nice headphones. I personally do not think 3.5 hours is enough quality listening time.
If you are on a budget and are looking to try some decent inner earbuds at an affordable price, then I recommend you take a look at these headphones.

Awesome Speaker!!
on March 21, 2021
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
This speaker is AWESOME! The setup after downloading the app from the Android play store of the speaker initially took a few tries as my WiFi for some odd reason would not recognize it in order to make a connection. As a result, I added the app on 3 phones in which my Sony Experia made the WiFi connection and from there I successfully connected everything. After the connection, there were 2 firmware updates, one of which I successfully updated. I waited a day then updated the second firmware.
I love the design of the app as it hosts various music streaming services such as Amazon Music, Deezer, Spotify, Pandora, Napster, SiriusXM, Tidal, Sound Cloud, Rhapsody, USB, your phone’s music. Suffice to say, their strategy to meet users’ needs was well thought out! There is an account set up to HEOS and from there, another one-time setup to your music streaming services is required.
I do not claim to be an audiophile; but, I can say the sound and bass from this speaker is amazing as it produces a distinct listening experience. I have Pandora, Amazon Music and Spotify. Pandora is my go-to music app as I am a huge fan of music from the 80’s. This device offers me an amazing experience when listening to music from that era. I have larger Bluetooth speakers; however, I do not get the punch that this Denon speaker offers as it packed with 150 watts!
Overall, I am extremely pleased with this speaker from design, aesthetics, ease of usage down to listening experience. This is my first Denon product and without hesitation, I can say their product matches up to the bigger names effortlessly.

A True One-Stop Gadget Shop!
on March 15, 2021
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
Dell thought of everything which is included within this adapter! This adapter truly is a must have for me as I have multiple devices some of which do not have needed ports such as display and/or HDMI. For example, I have an expensive laptop that does not have an HDMI nor display port; suffice to say, I have used this adapter which truly answered the call. I have usage for almost every port, except the VGA as of right now, I do not have any devices that would need that connection.
The overall design of this adapter is very solid as it can accommodate a desk area without taking up lots of space conversely, it could be used for travel as its size is very accommodating. I especially love that the cord is retractable.
I have an adapter that is very bulky, but it still works, yet, it does not have as many ports as the Dell adapter has. It is so bulky that it can literally be used as a paperweight.
My hat is off to Dell for a great design and product that works well to accommodate users’ peripheral needs.

A Really Good Toothbrush!!
on March 8, 2021
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
This is a really good toothbrush as I found it to be easy to set up, access, and use. The toothbrush comes ready to use and if you happen to need a charge, there is a USB application handy. Brushings with this toothbrush thus far have been good as the brush is light in weight yet it gives a thorough brushing. I am always apprehensive when approaching usage with an electric toothbrush because of the sounds that remind me of when my dentist is drilling for a cavity. I have an expensive brand’s electric toothbrush; however, I do not use it frequently because of that irritating drilling sound that it provides. I normally brush with a manual toothbrush for my daily brushings. This toothbrush is a nice starter toothbrush as it brushes smoothly but as I previously it gives a thorough brushing. My teeth feel as if I had an actual dental cleaning.
Also, this toothbrush can be a great travel companion because of its case and charger. I am elated to add this toothbrush into my daily routine and if needed, it will be easy to pack and go!

An Awesome Trimmer!
on February 26, 2021
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
I truly was elated to review one of Wahl’s great products as they have been a staple in the grooming community for many years! A community college that I am closely connected to has a career technical program that offers both barbering and cosmetology students opportunities to acquire their licenses after completion of the program. Many barbering students have within their barbering kits Wahl’s shavers; as a result, they provide their clients top-notched haircuts.
Also, I am elated that this shaver is unisex as I used it to trim my edges as I wear a lot of pin-up styles. The results I have received thus far are wonderful as the trims are easy on my hairline in addition to being smooth as well. I also like the fact that there are a variety of guards to choose from. The trimmers feel good in the hand as they are light in weight.
I am sure that I will get many years of usage out of this AWESOME product. My hat truly goes off to Wahl for their continuance to be at the forefront in the grooming industry!

An Awesome Protector of Pollutants!
on February 22, 2021
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
I truly never realized how potent and toxic one’s atmosphere can get from basic day-to-day chores such as cooking, spraying of aerosols, cleaners, etc., all of which lends to pollutants. I was especially shocked to find out how much smoke from the cooking of bacon can release harmful toxins into the air. Aeris Pro has been a Godsend as I have discovered as I am aging, I have lots of allergies. As such, keeping a healthy environment is so essential. The machine was easy to assemble as all it took was placing 4 filters on the bottom, then from there downloading an app and connecting first to Aeris and thereafter connecting to your own WiFi, which was kind of interesting as I thought, at least one step could have been eliminated. I personally would like to have seen a remote to operate the unit instead of an app.
The unit’s performance is amazingly good as it does a wonderful job in eliminating bad air quality. I keep Aeris’s air quality index chart handy in order to assure that my apartment has quality air. There are six speeds that the device runs. On average one or two does a great job in keeping my apartment at optimal air quality levels. The only time I have needed purification at level six is when I fried bacon as the smoke emitted hazardous toxins into the air.
Overall, I am quite pleased with this unit as it does a great job of keeping my overall environment’s air quality at acceptable levels. The only negative that I can associate with the unit is that replacement filters are pricey and that is something that I will deal with as it comes! I am reminded of an old adage that says, “you get what you pay for!” I guess only time will tell!

A True Must-Have for Business Needs!
on February 22, 2021
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
The Epson Rapid Receipt RR-600W is a workhorse scanner that gets important documents scanned in a matter of seconds. This scanner comes right on time as I have been trying to seriously eliminate the “paper monster” by organizing and creating a file system that houses important data. I have chosen to access the data via an organizational file system via my computer and/or the clouds. I have accounts with Evernote, Dropbox, One Drive and Google Drive. The scanner is very easy to set up as Epson has included a quick start guide that instructs how to connect and input your computer’s Wi-Fi info, download the necessary drivers and from there, you are good to go with scanning! I found that this scanner has a touch screen which is an added bonus as it lends to the intuitiveness of the scanning process. The visibility of the screen makes the process of scanning to be efficiently done as it enables you to see the whole process as it occurs.
So far, I have scanned hundreds of documents such as old tax forms, medical documents, and business documents. The documents I scanned have immense clarity and conciseness. I have a lot of business cards that I have collected over the years that I was able to scan and file. Additionally, the free included receipt software is another added bonus as I save most of my receipts.
I especially found its duplex capability to be great too; as I scanned lots of documents that were two-sided. Additionally, I am elated that this scanner is wireless as this eliminates restrictions. Overall, I am extremely pleased with the features, functions, and performance of this scanner. I am sure I will get many years of production from this workhorse!!

This is a great business projector as the lumens are great at 4000. It is easy to set up and use. I especially love all the multiple ports available for connection purposes. I used this projector by connecting my laptop via HDMI and within seconds I was up and running with great display results. While I know this unit has Miracast features; unfortunately, my phone does not have this feature as I would love to employ this for presentations.
Overall, another great one from Epson that will aid in delivering powerful presentations for business needs.

Another Great One from Logitech!!
on January 12, 2021
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
Upon unpackaging this mouse the first thing I noticed is its HUGE size! This mouse is huge in size, yet it presents a comfortable feel to the hand. Also, I noticed immediately that the mouse was in pairing mode as the pairing experience was seamless, the mouse also comes with a receiver. I was not too surprised that the mouse would easily pair because of prior experiences with Logitech’s mice, which consistently pairs with my devices.
The mouse does take some getting used to as I have not used a trackball mouse in years. At first glance, the experience is awkward as I had to get used to the mouse being stationary and the only usage should come from my thumb, after a few trial and errors, I mentally prepared my mind to employ only usage of my right thumb. Suffice to say, I am not expertly proficient, but with each usage, it does get better. I will note, this mouse is a great alternative if you are experiencing or have experienced carpal tunnel or wrist issues from overexertion from heavy keyboarding and/or mouse usage. I cannot emphasize enough how comfortable the trackball is as it provides true ease of usage experience.
If you are looking for a mouse that provides a good experience when surfing the internet, working on documents and presentations then Logitech has created another winner that will help you accomplish these tasks effortlessly!

Keyboard
By Pudge
I needed a basic keyboard since the one on my lap top stopped working. It worked fine for a few weeks. Having a problem now, It types Caps without putting on the Cap key, It skips spaces. Then the next day It will be fine for awhile and do the same thing again. Only paid $12.99 for it and that is just about what it is worth. I have had it over a month and as I said it was great for about 2 weeks.

No CD/DVD Rom Drive
By Hpandme
It's my fault for not reading the fine print but I now realize that this desktop does not have a CD/DVD Rom Drive. This is important to me since I do play games on my computer. It's smaller than the picture looks...about the size of a gallon of milk and I just got it , so I don't have any comments yet on the performance. The keyboard is compact too, wish it was wireless. Otherwise, a great buy.

I have the same desktop; however, it is with the i3 processor. Yes, it does come with a keyboard and mouse which are both paired. As a result, all one needs to do is plug and play. The desktop comes with several ports if a person desires to use an external CD/DVD player, the unit can accommodate the need by using one of the USB ports. I have an extra keyboard (which is bigger) and mouse that I use along with the included keyboard and mouse. So, if the included keyboard and mouse are not to your satisfaction, there are several USB ports that can be used to accommodate something else.

is this an all in one meaning it will print/fax and copy? Does it require a phone line to work as a fax?

Elizabeth,

Yes, this is an all in one printer that offers print, fax, copy and scan capabilities. From the best of my understanding, faxing has to be done through a traditional land line as there is an included phone line within the box.

Yes, Velop dual-band mesh integrates well with AT&T internet service as I have AT&T as my internet provider and Velop plugged into their modem. I hope this helps!

Velop with Intelligent Mesh™ Technology is an award-winning family mesh Wi-Fi system created to work seamlessly together.

Regardless of shape, size, or wherever your Internet comes in, Velop can be customized to your home. Which makes it easy to add more nodes as your home and family expand. Unlike traditional routers with range extenders, each node provides a powerful Wi-Fi signal throughout your entire home. It continuously self-organizes and optimizes to find the fastest path to the Internet for seamless Wi-Fi everywhere. Individual nodes may be connected wirelessly or by Ethernet for fast, reliable connection. This is an ultrasimple and powerful system that uses only one Wi-Fi network name and password to give you seamless and secure Wi-Fi. And leading-edge security lets you block content and easily pause the Internet for dinner or homework. It works with all Internet service provider supplied equipment and speeds, and its simple app-based setup will get you up and running in minutes.
 

Trying to find a system that works in a house over 4000 sq feet. WiFi extenders didn’t work. Have a Spectrum WiFi router. What router is compatible w/Spectrum that I can use with mesh system. Do nodes just plug in? Will be used for iPads and phones only.

Bellablue,

I think Velop could possibly be your answer in getting the adequate coverage you need in your home. I previously had Spectrum and Velop integrated fine with their modem. Basically, you plug the main node into your provided modem from Spectrum and the accompanying 2 nodes you place them throughout your home where you may experience lag, dead spots, buffering, etc... The cool thing as you place the nodes throughout your home, the downloaded app (required) is going to let you know if you've placed it in a place where the signals can communicate well. Yes, you can use iPads, phones, computers, printers, scanners, smart locks, gaming devices, etc whatever needed and Velop can handle it and provide you with robust coverage.

Lastly, Linksys has this product in various packages from single to triple nodes; so, you get to choose what is needed based on the square footage of your home. I hope this info helps some!
