Enjoy multiple benefits when wearing these Samsung IconX headphones. They double as a fitness tracker to record distance, speed and calories burned, and 4GB of memory lets you store up to 1,000 songs directly on these ear pieces. These Samsung IconX headphones come without wires for ultimate mobility during your workout.

Intuitive but lacks the basics-> Battery&Sound!

I have had several Bluetooth headphones over the past few years. I like to run marathons and I spend a lot time with my music both outside and inside training. I have had Jaybird bluebud X’s and couple pair of amazon knockoffs. So, for me the thought of that wire not hitting off the back of my neck and head as I pound the miles out is very pleasing. One caveat to my review is that I have an IOS phone and devices in my home. With that being said I will attempt to give you an personal and accurate review of the Samsung Gear icon X.
Pro’s:
1. Fully wireless…zero wires
2. The fit with the original ear pieces was snug and did not fall out while running or doing Crossfit
3. The touch controls were a neat feature with good voice prompts that were easy to understand
4. The charging/carrying case is very sturdy and good place to keep the earbuds to keep them clean and from getting lost in a gym bag and damaged.
5. The charging/carrying case fully charges the earbuds in 30-45 min and this is portable without being attached to a power outlet, provided that you charged it up of course.
6. You can store up to 4GB of music on the earbuds themselves so you don’t need to be tethered to a phone or device to listen to music while working out!
Cons:
1. The price point is high for what you are getting.
2. The battery life is short at 2 hours compared to my Jaybirds and amazon knockoffs at 6-8 hours. This in my opinion, as a marathoner, and someone who loves to workout is a must. There is nothing worse than getting ready to do your workout and realize that you earbuds are DEAD!!
3. The sound quality is just OK. To get even close to my other earbuds I have to shove it deep into my ear.
4. While working out I hear everything around me. I have tried this outside running, inside on the treadmill while connected to my Ipad binge watching Luke Cage on Netflix. These earbuds are terrible at isolating the outside noise. I tried them several times with different ear pieces and different setting and I could for the life of me not hear the music or shows good enough to actually enjoy them like with my other Bluetooth headphones.
5. There is no fitness tracking available for IOS devices which is a big letdown considering that is another big selling point.
6. The touch controls can be confusing and easily bumped while working out or switching between calls and music.
All in all I love the design and intuitiveness of the Samsung Gear icon X but they need a lot more work to reach the standard in which I know that Samsung is capable of. I look forward to future generation of this concept! For now I will stay with my corded Bluetooth headphones.

Overall not a bad product but pricey!!

I have had my apple watch for over a year now and feel that I should do a review so here goes: If you’re looking for a general/average smartwatch, then yes, the Apple Watch is it!! I would put it up to any of the other general smart watches out there. Once you add the sport and fitness to it, you kinda have to discard the Apple Watch if you want accuracy and reliability especially in distance and heart rate. I have no doubt with these second generation Apple Watches they will address these two issues.
I am a fitness person and have another watch ( Garmin Vivoactive) that I am using for comparison.
The Pros of the Apple Watch:
-The display is bright in low and high light situation, visually awesome
-Super easy to use for a beginner
-The watch faces seems to be very durable, I never take this thing off unless it is bedtime. I use it roughly through multiple crossfit workouts, wood working projects, lawncare and trailing running to name a few.
-I love the fact that I can view text and e-mails right on my wrist as I move throughout my workspace or at home throughout the house. Not only can you view them but you can reply with a quick preset phrase or emoji or you can simply talk to text into. The greatest thing ever!!
-The watch faces are easily set and configured to your liking
-There are a ton of apps and games you can download to make it more customizable to your liking. One of my favorites is the ESPN app where i can quickly view the scores of my favorite teams.
-Activity tracker concept with the rings are neat but the accuracy is left to be desired.
The Cons:
-The battery life sucks. I usually get a day and half out of it. I usually just charge it when I go to bed. It took some time getting used to this because in all my years in the Army I always wore a watch 24/7.
-There is no sleep tracker and if there was you would have to charge this bad boy at some point during the day when you actually would be using it!
-The price tag for what you get is high and I know that Apple products are historically higher than other brands but in the case of the Apple Watch (the first version) it is not worth the extra money in my opinion.
-As I noted I love fitness and the apple watch has not dazzled me as there is no stand-alone GPS and the accelerometer is not that accurate.
-the watch is not waterproof as stated by Apple. In my opinion I have not had any issues and I shower every day with it on and swam in the ocean on vacation and the pool several times with negative effects. So, I think Apple may have underestimated themselves on this point.

In closing this is a great watch with a HIGH price tag that is solid but just missing a few things in the fitness realm. I think that with a few more generations it will be right where it should!

Philips 3200 Series Fully Automatic Espresso Machine w/ LatteGo, Black
is that machine automatic?
Yes, this machine is automatic. Once you load the whole beans or you can a scoop of ground coffee and fill the water reservoir you just select the button for which coffee you would like it to make. It automatically dumps the grounds inside. I have made several cups before I had to empty the grounds collector. Hope that helps.
