Lots of features and good night vision… but….

Lots of features and good night vision… but….
First I always look at the price point and consider that when reviewing something. With that in mind, for the price, you get a lot of nice features and good night vision with this camera.
Best things about it are:
Tracking – the camera can be set to “follow” a moving object in its field of view. This could be person, dog, cat (sometimes)…. and actually kind of creepy when the camera moves on its own as the dog walks across the room.
Field of View – mounted in the corner of a room, there is nothing hidden from the camera as it can go wall to wall and pretty much floor to ceiling.
Night Vision – I was really surprised at how good an image was presented with little to no lights in the room. No question you could identify the face of someone walking through a dark room with this camera. No settings to mess with, when it gets dark the camera shows a greyscale image, when more light is available you get color.
Storage – SD card comes with the camera and if you need a larger card, easy to swap out, or buy a bundle of cards if you want to keep a record of activity. You will want to catch the card before it fills up and overwrites the oldest image or video files, but that’s pretty easy to tell from the app.
Mounting – a little quick-mount bracket comes if you want to mount on the wall or ceiling. The camera is surprisingly light, so it won’t require mounting it over a wall stud – as long as your drywall is pretty sturdy it should mount without having to hit a 2x4.
Wireless – this device connected with my wireless network in seconds. One of the easiest devices to get going I have had in a while. Needs to connect with the app on your phone to complete the process, so have your phone or tablet handy for setup.
Notifications on Motion or Sound – this one caught me off guard, as I set it up for “notifications” and really wasn’t expecting what happened next… was trying out the camera just setting on my office desk, and every time someone walked in or out of the room, and every time the dog (small chiweenie) walked in or out of the room, I would get a notification on my phone. Don’t get me started on the dog barking because if she cleared her throat too loudly, I would get a notification of “sound in the area.” That’s a nice feature but you probably don’t want to enable “notifications” until you are fixing to leave the house and if you have a dog or large cat that moves around a lot, or barks whenever a car goes by, maybe just don’t use that feature. I’m just sayin…
Kind of not OK, but maybe I’m being picky?
Well the fact that this camera will ONLY work on a phone app and cannot feed to a desktop/laptop app is kind of a problem with me. Personally, I would prefer to have camera access available on my desktop or laptop while away from the house at work to keep it in front of me if needed. Having to pull my phone out and check the app to see who set off the motion (or sound) detection trigger is a bit of a hassle for me. Other folks may thing this is the best feature of all – just be aware of it and if that’s OK with you, no problems. The camera WILL feed to some Google devices with small screens or large screen TV size if you have it, but I don’t have that so please catch some other reviews for using this with a smart home display or TV panel. It works from what I have read, so if you have one of those thingies by your bed and tell Google to show you a view of your carport when you hear something in the middle of the night, it should work just fine. Me, I would just let the pet cougar loose and tell it to “sic ‘em” and listen for the screams. If you don’t have a pet cougar, maybe this camera would be a good thing to have hooked up to your Google Home Thing Screen.
Kind of laggy on the response time – I’m really amazed at how fast a signal can go from my phone to a tower to a satellite and back to a tower and then to your phone – WOW it’s really really amazingly fast! With this camera, it seems to have a built-in lag of about 2 or 3 seconds no matter what. Because of the lag, I have the tendency to “oversteer” and don’t stop hitting the “move it” arrow in time to stop the camera where I want it to stop. It’s one of those “little bit – stop” “little bit – stop” until I get the camera where I want it. Not so smooth and again, for the price I almost feel like I’m being picky – but there you are.
OK there is no way around it – you will need to run a thin power cable to this camera. You can pull power from USB off a nearby TV (maybe) or use the power block to pull power off an outlet. Hotwiring into the house if out of my field, if you can do it, or want to have someone come in to do it – there’s your answer. I’m not so sure about getting a 30-foot-long micro-usb cable to run into the wall and pop out near an outlet and that’s just a total hassle to me. If you got it, good for you. For me, not so convenient.
Fish-eye lens – I’m used to cameras that give a non-distorted picture. Blame it on all the TEAMs and ZOOM meetings I’ve been having the past few months. Anyway, the fish-eye does give the extra field of view, and anything towards the center is pretty much clear appearance, but it kind of bugs me to have a curved image, especially when it is on a small phone screen. Be advised.
Indoor only – not a criticism as you can’t get waterproof and raccoon proof and all that in this price range, but please be sure you understand this is not going to work out if you put it out in the rain or where it can get condensation or frost in it. Be advised. Maybe under the eave of a house or porch “ceiling” – but still I would think if it got wet you would be looking at a black video feed more often than not.
Well there you have it – I have to say this camera was much more than I was expecting for the price, and really does some pretty neat things with good quality and really clear night-vision. It checks a lot of boxes, but I really have to say I would not be using this as my only “security system” device. It has a lot of clever and helpful uses, but protecting my house from a break-in would need a little more than a ceiling mounted spy camera.
Hope this helps and stay safe!

Good sound and battery life….microphone meh

Good sound and battery life….microphone could use some help
OK these are definitely not up to over-the-ear sound quality, so adjust your expectations for the price point and if you fiddle with the sound settings on the app you can find a pre-set that works best for the particular game you are playing. Once you get a good fit (plenty of tips to choose from) and set the equalizer to your liking, it’s actually pretty nice not to have the weight of cans on your head. These work out nicely to provide improved sound on an Oculus Rift S bluetooth pairing with the computer and no lag at all.
Bluetooth paired no problems with desktop, phone, laptop, tablet >> no problem going from one device to the other.
As mentioned, a good selection of ear tips for your best fit, and nice to have a little traveling case/bag to keep everything together so you don’t have to hang on to the box to keep everything sorted out.
Battery life is probably the best thing about these earbuds, as easy to get 10 hours + on a chat console or in multi-player. Re-charging is about the same as everyone else, I usually charge them back up overnight so can’t really say if it is
Sadly, the microphone is very much a step down from a stem mic on a headset, as other “regular” players picked up on the difference and described the microphone sound as “like talking to you on a phone” instead of a good microphone. Also needed to hold the microphone up close to the mouth in some games to be heard, and still not the sound quality you might be used to with a stem mic.
So, for the price, these work well for sound purposes and are light, good bluetooth connection without any lag, long long battery life. For multi-player games where good microphone quality is essential to the game, you might want to move up to a higher price point and check the reviews.
Hope this helps and stay safe!

Nice for older external monitor - have one?
on July 10, 2020

Look closely - this has the older style VGA connector so be sure you are getting the right one for your needs. With that said, many of us have that "old" monitor sitting around looking for something to do. If you have recently gotten a new-style 2-in-1, convertible, or a Surface Go or Go 2, this is nice to have to hook up the larger display for all-day use - a little easier on the eyes. Don't overlook the "pass through" power channel, as you can charge your device at the same time you have the monitor connected. For this to work, your device must have USB3 video signal coming out of the device. There is no video card built in to the adapter. That's a lot of words for something that is VERY simple to use - just plug it in and activate the secondary screen on your device, and you are good to go!

Helps Go2 function as intended - get a package!
on July 10, 2020
Posted by: banjo
from macon, ga
DISCLOSURE: “Reviewers in this invitation-only program are provided products for the purpose of writing honest, unbiased reviews.”
All the reviews I have seen sing the praises of both the design and function of the keyboard, and it does indeed have unsurpassed design with good tactile keypress and BACKLIGHTING! The Go2 is not intended to be a tablet at all times for all purposes. It is a Windows 10 machine and for that you will want to have the option of using a keyboard with a (very nice) built-in trackpad.
The Go2 is a Windows computer, and the keyboard completes the package and allows you the use of a fully functional machine when you need it. I am still amazed at how easy it is to pop to keyboard on and off. I don't mean "it comes off easily" like it doesn't stay on securely because when it is on, it is ON and isn't going to pop off when you pick it up or put it down - what I mean is that you can hold the keyboard and quickly pull it off, and then the darn thing seems like it knows what to do when you put it back on - it pops (securely) right into place without a bunch of fiddling around. Very nice!
One of the very nice things about the Go2 line is the very professional appearance you can get from the color-matched accessories. There is nothing like having a Go2 with keyboard, mouse, and pen all coordinated. Around the house, maybe not so much a big deal, but out in the business or educational world, it really does stand out and looks very professional. It also feels pretty nice to have “the look” with your technology. People DO notice.
Get the keyboard. There are some nice package deals that include a keyboard, and I can almost guarantee that sooner or later you will get a keyboard for your Go2. Better sooner than later, so you can really enjoy this neat little machine from day one!
Go fancy with the nice Alcantara Signature cover – you deserve it and for a few bucks more it really looks nice and complements the appearance of the Go2. Save a few bucks and get the black plastic cover if you like, but really the Alcantara is a nice touch, looks great, and for as long as you are going to be using your Go2, you will be glad you got the Signature cover upgrade every time you use it.
Stay Safe!

The little computer that is REALLY a computer!
on July 10, 2020
Posted by: banjo
from macon, ga
Hey >> The “Go” in “Surface Go 2” means you GO PLACES with it...
DISCLOSURE: “Reviewers in this invitation-only program are provided products for the purpose of writing honest, unbiased reviews.”
The name “Go” sums it up >> this device is something you take with you when you “Go” places. When I am headed out the door for a meeting or "out and about" in the world, the “Go2” comes along to flip open and take notes, zip off a quick email, share photos or drafts of presentations >> anything that benefits from having a full operating system that is COMPATIBLE with, and SYNCHRONIZED with, my systems back at the office and at home. If the Surface Go 2 looks like a “real” little computer that is pretty cool, cute, handy, or would make your life easier or more productive >> then it’s worth a look. Please I am not a “Microsoft Fan Boy” as I use (or have used) Windows, Linux, Android, Chromebook, iPad, and MacOS at different times for different purposes. Each has its strengths, and none of them are all things at all time to all people. Figure out what you want, and if the Go2 looks like what you want and meets your needs, you will not be disappointed.
WHAT IT IS:
1 – Microsoft Windows 10 Operating System – the whole thing >> NOTE: the default OS on unboxing is the W10 “S” which takes about 5 minutes to switch over (free of charge) to the full “W10 Home” system. The W10 “S” mode is there to keep the installed programs from collecting a lot of “digital sludge” that slows down ANY computer over time, and if you can go with the apps and programs in the Microsoft Store, that is the best way to keep the Go2 as snappy and clean as possible. If you must switch out of “S” mode to install needed software, please don’t go crazy and install a bunch of junk that will slow you down. The Go2 runs fine, but if it starts getting overloaded with background services it will cut down on both your speed and your battery life.
2 – Small and Light – did I say it was small and light? If you walk around at work, you carry a portfolio or a clipboard or something in your hands – if you don’t have something in your hands it looks like you are slacking off – you know that don’t you? Carry a Surface Go 2 instead – it replaces your clipboard, keeps you from having to keep pulling your phone out in the middle of everything (MS update is coming to allow phone interaction on the Windows system if you don’t already have that <or> tether the Go2 to your phone before you go in the meeting), and I GUARANTEE people will come over and ask through their facemask “What the heck have you got in your hand?”
3 – VERY nice build quality – not the “cheapo plastic” shell and paperclip hinges you get with a budget laptop – no siree.... this is a magnesium metal shell and is a SOLID piece of equipment. The hinge for the prop-stand should win the Nobel Prize for engineering – it will adjust to any angle you want and STAY THERE right where you set it. Go to BestBuy and pick up and handle a few machines in this price range.... you will very quickly see and feel what I mean – the Go2 has a premium feel and you can “just tell” when you pick it up that it is well built.
WHAT IT IS NOT:
1 – This is (probably) not a PRIMARY use laptop computer all by itself – nope, it is (probably) too small to use all day long to give you the “full laptop experience” BUT the Go2 stays SYNCHRONIZED with your main rig(s) and when you come back to your main machine(s) everything is in step in with what you just did on your Go2 and you just sit down and pick up where you left off. If you have modest computing needs and want to stick with the Go2 as your primary rig, then there is a docking station and/or USB3 port if you need to connect larger monitors, keyboard, mouse - and Bluetooth is built in if you want to use that for your peripherals.
2 – This is not a GAMING rig – nope nope nope do NOT think you will play ANY modern games on this little machine – older games or the simpler web-based games work just fine. However, if you want to comfortably hold something small in your hands to work on adult business and/or educational stuff – get a Go2. It should be said that there are PLENTY of entertaining games that can run very well on the Go2 if you need a little break or for winding down after a hard day’s work, so that’s a plus for the Go2 but there is a limit to the level of complexity that it can handle with gaming software. Be advised.
3 – Please! This is NOT a “Toy” for the kids – the Go2 is small, but it’s NOT a “toy computer.” It is an amazingly small, fully functional, well-engineered Windows 10 machine. If you want the kids to have a laptop to “play” with then get them an inexpensive or refurbished device so when they take it in the shower to watch a video while they lather up or use it as a digital Frisbee you won’t have a melt-down. If you want the kids to have a small computer of their very own that they can LEARN with, or STUDY with, or SCHOOL with, then here you Go2.
4 – This is not a PURE tablet experience – this is Windows 10 and thus is not designed for “pure” use as a tablet device. You are purchasing a small W10 computer, so a keyboard is called for – look for the ‘package deals’ that knock off a few bucks with the added keyboard. The tablet mode (remove the keyboard) works very nicely for note-taking and videos and small-group presentation and sharing pictures and even catching a video or two when you are settling down for the evening or taking a break – all these are good functions and tablet mode is GREAT in these situations. The Go2 as a tablet fits VERY nicely in your hands, has smooth and comfortable edges, and a big enough screen to work well in tablet mode... BUT you will WANT to be able to pop on a keyboard so you can get some work done on documents, emails, presentations – all the things you would like to be able to do on a small portable computer when you are out and about and on the go – which is EXACTLY what the Go2 is for!
What you will LOVE about the Go2:
“Hello Windows” Facial Recognition – turn it on, look at it, there you go. If you haven’t seen or used the facial recognition unlock feature for Windows – it is a warm and fuzzy experience. Noice!
“Instant On” – close the lid, go to the next place, open the lid – it really is “instantly” ON right where you left off. I gotta admit that’s one thing I always did LOVE about some other devices that were out there, and now it really really really works with a Windows portable. Noice!
Windows Sync and OneDrive/SharePoint Sync – all your settings, documents, browser history, sticky notes, OneNote, TEAMs, etc etc etc – EVERYTHING is synched with your desktop and/or laptop whether they are at home, at work, or both. I promise – I have several laptops and desktops spread out at home and work, and I can sit down at ANY of them and they are all working together to keep me going smoothly. Adding a Go2 to the mix was quick and seamless.
IT’S ONLINE MEETING TIME! >> Front/Back cameras, stereo speakers, dual studio microphones >> all of which are pretty darn good: With online meetings becoming the “new normal” – having a sweet little computer that will hold it’s own in a TEAMs, Skype, or ZOOM meeting is very handy. You could very easily use this little critter for your meetings while you keep your work tasks going on another rig without having to stop everything to join in another “yawn” online collaboration or try to use the TEAMs app on your little bitty phone. If you are “out and about” when the meeting is scheduled to start, the Go2 gives you a high-quality video and sound feed.
What you want to get along with your Go2 chassis (HINT: look for the “package deals” to save on the accessories):
1 – Get the keyboard – unsurpassed design with tactile keypress and BACKLIGHTING! The Go2 is not intended to be a tablet at all times for all purposes. It is a Windows 10 machine and for that you will want to have the option of using a keyboard with a (very nice) built-in trackpad. Go fancy with the nice Alcantara Signature cover – you deserve it and for a few bucks more it really looks nice and complements the appearance of the Go2 case. Save a few bucks and get the black plastic cover if you like, but really the Alcantara is a nice touch, looks great.
2 – Get a tempered glass screen protector. Enough said. Gorilla Glass is a fantastic material, but Stuff Happens - don't let it happen to your Go2.
3 – Get a protective case if you are going to be out and about in an environment where drops and rubs and scratches are par for the course. Indoor only or “soft” use outside, the Go2 is metal case and very durable, but if you are banging around at work (or play) a case may come in handy and keep your Go2 looking at its best when you are back inside and want to show it off.
4 – Get a Surface Pen? Well, maybe and it really comes in handy for taking notes and highlighting text when you are in the tablet mode. If you are looking at the Go2 for note-taking like OneNote or similar software, you will be deee-lighted at how nicely a pen helps you be more productive and creative with your note taking and doodles during meetings.
SPENDING YOUR ACTUAL MONEY:
OK that’s about it and if you are like me you don’t want to waste your money and you have spent a week staying up late going around on YouTube looking at unboxings and Googling “Microsoft Surface Go 2” to read the reviews. Do your research and go to BestBuy and put your hands on one and then make up your mind. You can tell I am really pleased with my Go2. Honestly, I am not the fan-boy type and have been going through little portable devices starting with the Casio SF-8000 in 1990 and I think the Go2 is what I have been looking for all these years.

The style will make you smile…

HP - ENVY 6055 Wireless All-In-One Instant Ink-Ready Inkjet Printer - White
The style will make you smile…
It seems that with HP the “ENVY” designation is used for their recent devices that have a modern style with a smooth and sleek appearance. I have an HP “ENVY” laptop that is very stylish, and this “ENVY” printer has the same modern appearance with a low profile and smooth, rounded lines. Very attractive printer for a desktop, and also very compact considering all the different functions. This definitely doesn’t “look like a printer” in the traditional sense – very modern and almost a decorative accessory. HP seems to be going for the “Jetsons” look with this one as they have added a “light strip” to the front of the printer that changes colors when the printer is performing different functions.
Setup for the printer is very easy, with a step-by-step guide using an app (you will want to download the app as the first step in setting up the printer). Very quick to download and install the app to do the setup and control the printer. The app is pretty much essential as there is not the typical “touch screen” display on the printer, just a multi-colored light strip and a few small buttons. I’m not much for remembering what button does which on any device, and the app takes care of it and gives total control over the printer, and monitors the printer health, ink levels, and ink refill schedule if you use the automatic refill program.
Any of the devices on the house network - computers, tablets, phones – all of them can connect and print. My wife really likes this as she can be in the living room on her Chromebook or her phone and print out coupons and recipes and bits of juicy gossip from her FaceBook Page and even plain paper pictures without having to get up from her chair. Her majesty is pleased! i won't say who collects the printouts and takes them to the royal throne, but it isn't her majesty and I haven't quite trained the dog to be a courier... at least not yet. Slipping in some photo paper for a nice color print is very quick and easy, but please don't tell 'the royal presence' as that will be another item added to the court jester's "to do" list. Thanks and I owe you one!
… about the ink deal >> when you are setting up the printer it asks if you want to sign up for the ink replacement/refill program… I suggest you go ahead and “accept” the ink program to make the setup go a LOT smoother, and then give it some more thought and continue or cancel the program as you desire. If you are going to be doing a good bit of printing, especially color prints or photographs, the discount you get with the automatic ink replacement is probably a good deal. If this is a “couple of pages a day” machine, then you might want to buy ink as you need it. Keep in mind that this printer does a pretty good job with pictures and of course if you have purchased a birthday or “special day” card lately, being able to print some nice cards (in full color) for special occasions instead of dropping an UNBELIEVABLE amount of money on “Happy Birthday” and “Thinking of You” cards at the store might make this printer your best money-saving device in the house! Everyone’s phone seems to have a bazillion pictures, as well, and a few of your best selfies or “bestest friend” photos to frame up or stick to the refrigerator let you get full use of the photo printing. It's mighty handy (and nice) to have a photo printer around the house!
Speaking of color printing, you can get some very nice photo prints from the ENVY. The colors are very bright and clear, and if photo printing is new to you, try some different photo papers to see how a glossy finish compares to a matte finish on the paper you are using. Sometimes folks jump right to the “glossy” thinking that will produce the best results, but honestly unless it is a photo that really needs the finest detail possible like a scenic landscape (Grand Canyon?), the matte finish paper looks better for those pictures of friends and family.
The only consideration I would suggest before purchase is if you plan to use this a “home office” machine and will need to do a lot of duplex (2-sided) copies or scans OR if you need high-speed copying. For duplex, you have to manually flip the documents as there is no automatic sheet feeder for copies or scans. The speed of the machine is not exactly slow slow slow, but it does take it’s time making copies or printing documents, photos at highest resolution take their sweet time but that's normal and it gives the colors a chance to set properly. If it’s just an occasional need, I wouldn’t be concerned as it keeps the price down and less machinery to jam. If you are going to be doing a lot of duplex copies and scans, you may want to bump up a model or two and get a “home office” machine that can handle more complex jobs.
Other than that one consideration, this is a very nice machine in terms of appearance, good construction, and the nicest “style” for a printer I have seen. You won’t be hiding this one under the desk or on a shelf out of the way, it really is a “modern looking” asset to the appearance of the “computer corner” or game room. Turn off the lights when you send a print job, and enjoy the ENVY “light show” while it prints.

RGB gaming mouse at a reasonable price...
on April 26, 2020
Posted by: banjo
from macon, ga
Logitech is hard to beat for keyboards and mice, and they made a good move here by updating their “old reliable” 2017 model “Prodigy” model 203 gaming mouse and releasing this updated version of “LightSync” model 203. Combine this sanely-priced RGB mouse with an RGB keyboard using the GHUB software, and you will complete a nice desktop display that is synchronized and fully customizable.
As said, this pretty much looks the same as the older Prodigy model, with improved performance on the DPI and some improvements on the lighting (seems brighter and smoother – maybe). 6 buttons which are entirely programmable with the GHUB software – set them up to do anything you would like and quickly switch gaming profiles for customized button functions/macros. Nothing is missing from this nicely priced mouse and a good one to “pack and go” without having to worry about misplacing or “evaporating” your gamer mouse.
If you missed out on the Prodigy model and are looking for a nice gaming mouse with customizable RGB that doesn’t strain the wallet – this is a good choice.
Maybe a nice “surprise gift” for the younger gamer that is getting a little bored with the isolation from social distancing and would appreciate a little pick-me-up with a new mouse to fiddle around with.
Keyboards and Mice come and go – Logitech is almost always the better choice and no question they are here to stay and doing the work to improve their products over time.
As said, this pretty much looks the same as the older Prodigy model, with improved performance on the DPI and some improvements on the lighting (seems brighter and smoother – maybe). 6 buttons which are entirely programmable with the GHUB software – set them up to do anything you would like and quickly switch gaming profiles for customized button functions/macros. Nothing is missing from this nicely priced mouse and a good one to “pack and go” without having to worry about misplacing or “evaporating” your gamer mouse.
If you missed out on the Prodigy model and are looking for a nice gaming mouse with customizable RGB that doesn’t strain the wallet – this is a good choice.

Leave the expensive phone at home…
on April 26, 2020
Posted by: banjo
from macon, ga
This is a great way to leave the expensive phone at home and get out for some fresh air and a little walk around the block without risking your “everything to me” phone and to be honest getting away from the ping and rings and digital distractions for a while.
Very simple to find your favorite stations for the pre-sets, and enjoy your 80’s rock or NPR broadcasts. It’s a little bit of an adjustment to go “retro” and hear the commercials and cheesy DJs if you are used to a pure podcast or Sirius “pay to listen” radio channels, but it’s FREE to listen and if the worst happens and you lose this device when out and about or leave it at the playground, you aren’t out the cost of your irreplaceable phone and what the heck stuff happens.
Quality of the music is about what you would expect from a radio receiver – AM is AM and will crackle from time to time depending on your station – but absolutely you can tell when a storm is approaching when the lighting CRACKS the signal. FM stations are good with stereo signal and earbuds, and the Memorex will pick up just as well as any other FM radio I have around the house or in the car. The “Bass Boost” is alright and maybe helps out when exercising or doing something in a noisy environment – but for more quiet listening is to me a bit excessive. Others may want the extra thump and it’s there if you want to use it all the time.
Battery life is great, and haven’t really had to worry about running out of juice for a couple of weeks so far. You can leave it running and use as an alarm clock if the need arises, so battery life will vary if you leave it on all the time, of course. Would have been nice to have a rechargeable battery built in, but AAA rechargables are not too expensive and if you want to go eco-friendly that is an option.
The armband is a little thick and may feel like it is getting in the way if you are doing vigorous exercise like pumping iron, but still better to me than risking an expensive phone that could be damaged or “walk away” when out in the world.

Overall this is an inexpensive way to have some music with you and most likely a familiar way to go for the more mature generations as we were around when “The Walkman” and it’s descendants arrived on the market and I bet if you think about it you probably have one of those old “portables” in a box in a closet somewhere from the good old days.

Good sound spread and easy to add a sub-woofer...
on April 14, 2020
Posted by: banjo
from macon, ga
This soundbar replaced a more compact system with modest sub-woofer from another manufacturer. This Yamaha YAS-109 looked pretty much the same as the YAS-209 other than lacking a separate free-standing sub-woofer. With a sub-woofer already sitting around, the 109 seemed like the better choice. For those willing to switch between different sound settings for music, movies, ‘regular’ TV, sporting events on TV – all these settings are available through the included remote, and also through a phone app. With all the choices available, I recommend switching through the different settings available to find the best settings to match the room acoustics and the particular use for the soundbar. There are several settings that can be pretty much “set it and forget it” that will provide good sound for whatever is being played, but there IS a difference between the settings and if you are planning on using the sound bar for a particular purpose for a period of time, it is worth selecting the best setting for that particular purpose. Some may consider this too much to do if they use the soundbar for different purposes during the day, and they may want to find the best sound for general use and leave the system at that setting for everything.
The display for settings consists of a series of tiny lights on a dark plastic panel (on the soundbar) and the one thing I would like to see changed is an easier to read display. It is difficult to tell what is going on with the system if you rely on the indicator lights, as the lights are nice and bright but what they are showing is hard to tell. The best solution is to get comfortable with the remote and/or the phone app to control the system, and not to rely on reading the indicator panel on the sound bar. This is not really a big deal, as after setting up the sound bar and tucking it away behind the TV, the display panel is out of sight anyway. It was during the initial setup and testing that I found the indicator panel to be hard to decipher. This isn’t something that would be much of a problem once the system is set up and installed, so no big deal.
The sound is excellent, and a definite improvement over the more compact system it replaced (that actually lists for a higher price). In all fairness, if you are used to any type of sub-woofer, even a small unit, then you may miss the extra range that the sub-woofer provides. With that said, I added a modest 10” sub-woofer to this system with an inexpensive crossover mixer and the result was as good as the more costly YAS-209. So if you already have a decent sub-woofer, then the YAS-109 should work well as the main bar and you can simply plug in your sub-woofer for the extended range. If you do NOT have an existing sub-woofer, I really recommend the YAS-209 if you can swing it so you don’t feel the need later on to add on a sub-woofer for the full sound experience.
The built-in Alexa works just fine if you like having that available, and will respond to request to play different music from streaming services and change settings on the sound bar. Personally that was OK to play around with but not something I will be using very often. Alexa DOES work, and can be set up in the same way as most Alexa devices. If you have a "Smart Home" with loads of IOT devices, then this may fit in nicely with your voice-controlled system.
Overall, the sound quality is what you would expect from Yamaha, and there are distinct differences between the various settings – which shows that they really do make a difference for the sound purpose and quality, and are not just “different” in name but not much different in output.

Good price point for a very serviceable headset…
on January 26, 2020
Posted by: banjo
from macon, ga
With so many headsets to choose from and new models appearing daily, the HS70 is a good choice at the mid-range price that meets basic needs and provides a good sound experience. The model I am reviewing is the “Cream” color but is also available in Carbon and the features and functions are the same. This headset was used on a gaming PC, so don’t have any report on use with PS4 or other gaming consoles.
The main things I want in a wireless headset are the quality of the sound and microphone, comfort for long sessions, good battery life, and a smooth and consistent wireless connection. This headset meets those needs, and actually is pretty impressive for this price point. For good, basic performance, comfort and wireless function – this is a good choice.
Comfort - There is good thick padding on the headphones that provide a nice seal, although taking a break from time to time will help as the seal is snug and your ears might tend to heat up since the padding is covered with “faux” leather. The headband is also well padded and very comfortable.
Sound quality is impressive for this price point. Good range for the sound, bass comes in very well and all sound/frequency levels can be easily adjusted as needed. Take the time to download and configure the Corsair iCue software to get the full 7.1 surround sound for games and media that support 7.1. Once you have installed the software it connects automatically and is ready for set up to select pre-sets or change the settings. There are very good pre-sets, and you can also customize the sound with plenty of frequency sliders if you like to suit your individual needs. The microphone will detach for “earphone only” listening but keep track of the microphone module as it can get away from you when removed. The microphone does tend to pick up outside noise, so don’t plan to use this headset if you operate in a noisy environment. For gaming at home and with a few friends, this will work without a problem, but an environment with lots of outside noise will come through on the mic and can be distracting. Note that the microphone will only plug in to the left side of the headset, so if you need to have the mic on the right side for whatever reason this will not be possible. Volume control wheel and mute button are close together on the headset, and as with any new device it takes some getting used to when you want to adjust the mic or change/mute the volume – a little practice is needed to change one without bumping into the other controls.
Battery Life - Corsair advertises 16 hours of use on a charge, and this seems to be accurate – good long-term use from a charge. Unfortunately there is no way to determine the remaining charge, as there is not an indicator on the headset (lights or verbal cue) and the iCue software does not show charge level, either. The solution is to be on the safe side and charge up the headset after use to be sure you are fully charged and ready to go on the next use. Charging is with the older style Micro USB, but not a problem and most of us have plenty of cables around.
Wireless connection uses the included USB receiver, and connects quickly. The connection seems consistent with no drops or lags. It is easy to get spoiled with wireless connection once you get used to it, and this headset keeps a smooth connection even after leaving the room from time to time (you know what I mean) and coming back to rejoin a game.
Overall, this is a good mid-range headphone that provides good comfort, long battery life, and excellent 7.1 sound that can be customized as needed.

Actually the "top of the line" G910 gaming keyboard was marked down to a lower price when I got this, but too much "gamer" stuff on the G910 and not for an 'older professional' who wants to appear more mature than his 13-year-old gaming son. IMO the G910 wasn't selling as well as hoped, and the G810 is (to me) the superior model in design, appearance, and performance.
This G810 looks professional on the desk, has OUTSTANDING color display (note that the 'special' keys on the number keys are also illuminated -- missing on many of the other illuminated keyboards - aren't these ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) the ones you can never remember when typing in the dark?), no "bottom of the keys" light spillover that takes away from the illumination focus, superior engineering on the Romer-G switches (Check out the tour of the Romer-G factory in Japan on YouTube), and feels like a BRICK in the hand (a GOOD BRICK) with heavy-duty construction. The 3-way adjustable tilt and huge rubber feet on the bottom will keep this from sliding around on any desk, including glass-tops. The only thing that makes this look like a "gamer rig" is the FABULOUS and CRISP color displays... which are easy to see even with the lights on in the room > fully adjustable to get it just the way you want at home or at work. I may be an old-timer, but I don't mind showing off a little bit and this keyboard is an EYE-CATCHER when the lights start doing the 'wave' across the keyboard!
I read all the reviews and fiddled with the keyboards on display and there seem to be "Logitech Nay-Sayers" who can't bear the idea of using anything other than the older design "cherry" keys. I have gone from manual touch-typing > to I B M Selectric > to I B M 'clicky' keyboard (still one of my favorites) > to membranes > to whatever-cheapo-keyboard Dell includes in their educational computers > to a Saitek PK17U Cyborg > to this keyboard. This one is the best by FAR! Re: keys... you get a little 'click' so the sound and some tactile/touch reinforcement for keyboarding (typing) is there, but not too loud and for me just enough to let me know I hit the key. Yes it feels different from the cheapo Dell keyboard i just unplugged and replaced, but every keyboard is different and this one feels like driving a luxury car!
Speaking of my son, he is now looking over at my new keyboard and looking at his illuminated keyboard and I think I know what he will be asking for come Christmas. Fortunately, the box still had the promotion of free download and activation code for "The Division" so the kid has something to keep him busy until Santa Claus comes.
If you are an old crab like me, but like a little 'sizzle' when using your computer and want to treat yourself to a smooth-as-silk keyboard... this is the one I would recommend. Leave the "whoopee" keyboards to the kids.
PS - you can hit a quick button on the keyboard and turn off the light display if you want to turn off the light show for a while.

Update @ Christmas 2016
December 21, 2016
Mentioned that my son was keeping an eye on my G810 from the get-go... first time I let him 'test drive' my G810 he says "ooooh, that feels nice" and decided he wanted to go to mechanical keyboard. He has a 'gamer' RBD keyboard (non-mechanical) with extra bells and whistles he has been using for a year or two, but instantly fell in love with the mechanical feel. Just gave him a "Week before Christmas" present of his own G810. He had his pick of the models available, and after tapping some keys and looking at the different models chose to get the G810. Just goes to show the "fancy schmancy" keyboards might look more-cooler-better but the proof is in the feel of the keys. It's a keyboard, after all.

banjo's Questions
banjo has not submitted any questions.
Meet the unrivaled, everyday noise canceling headphone for people who want to keep it simple. Hesh ANC is engineered with just the right amount of added features to make your life a little easier without a lot of additional technology that you might not need.
Does the headphone have a mic built into the headset where you can make phone calls?
yes there are actually 4 built-in microphones for the "ambient" function and for phone calls. i was using a "boom mic" gaming headset for my virtual meetings and phone calls, and when switching back and forth during a phone call and a meeting to check out the difference, the people in the meeting and on the phone call said they could not tell much difference between "boom mic" gaming headset and the Skullcandy headset. considering the comfort and battery life of the Skullcandy headset (see my review) i prefer the Skullcandy to the gaming headset, and also don't have to "switch" to earbuds when going back and forth from virtual meetings and classes and making or receiving phone calls. the Skullcandy headset works very nicely for all things all day long.

Pair Surface Go Type Cover with Surface Go* for a full keyboard experience anywhere. Ultra-compact, yet it includes a complete mechanical keyset, backlit keys, and extra-large trackpad. Plus, three colors are covered in rich Alcantara material¹ for an added touch of luxury and comfort.
What is the power source for the Microsoft Surface Go type cover?
the keyboards do not have a built-in battery that needs to be charged separately. the keyboard draws power (for the BACKLIGHTING - very nice!) from the computer battery when it is "popped" on. Nothing to worry about like forgetting to charge your keyboard, or losing the Bluetooth connection - it is all direct connection for power and signal. The Microsoft Surface keyboard seems to be something that everyone agrees is well designed and "one of the best" out there for a detachable keyboard/trackpad. Hope this helps and Stay Safe!

HP OMEN Obelisk by HP Desktop: Play graphically intense games with this HP OMEN Obelisk desktop computer. You can easily store large amounts of media and other data on the 1TB hard drive and install games and programs on the 256GB SSD for fast access. This HP OMEN Obelisk desktop computer has 16GB of memory for multitasking effectively, and the Intel Core i7-9700 processor handles resource-intense programs efficiently.
Is the storage (and other features, I suppose) upgradeable? If I wanted to install higher storage (a 2TB HDD or a 500g SSD, for example) is that doable? If so, is it easily doable?
very easy to swap or add hard drives - the solid panel pops right off and there are two drive bays ready to go. i did what you are asking about by pulling the 1TB drive that came with the system out, and replacing with a 2TB drive that already had my game files on it (steam stuff - you know what i mean) and adding a 1TB SSD in the second bay. Transferred the system settings from the "old" computer to this new one using TransWiz to migrate the windows 10 user profiles from the old machine and this freed up the 1TB SSD from the "old" machine to be used for game files on the Obelisk.

Are both side panels removable? I know the windowed one will come off, but is the other side detach as well? Thanks in advance for your answers!
yes both side pop off very easily. the clear side panel for access to the motherboard, the solid side panel gives you access to the quick-change slots for 2 hard drives. I swapped out the provided hard drive with one that already had game files on it, and the popped in a SSD in the blank bay. just use the rails to mount the hard drives and leave the little tiny screws in the tool box. easy peasy!

i got 10+ couple days ago and it says model I3223. software is most current 53.0.A.4.79 so no update needed as i have heard about some Xperia 10 early shipments. from what i have heard some issues were from software that needed updating, and i have had no issues with audio, bluetooth, or other concerns.

well i will answer my own question. got my 10+ and no 'free case' for US customers. box came with phone, charger, USB cable, and micro-documentation.
