The adidas FWD-02 SPORT gives you total freedom through road runs and track workouts. No wires. Stay focused. Don’t hold back. The sleek, ergonomic buds stay in place through warmups and hill sprints. The intuitive controls are easy to use and always responsive.

Good when they connect
on May 25, 2022
Posted by: Garfwiz
These are missing a few needed features. I'll start with my first impression. Not good. I struggled to keep these connected. After a few attempts to fully pair it finally stuck. I still have to force these into repairing mode from time to time but not as much as at first. Next issue is controls. These don't have the standard ability to pause and unpause music, podcasts, etc. without doing it on my phone.
The package does come with a lot of wing and bud size options so they feel super comfortable. The sound is good and there is a basic EQ feature in the app. They charge fast and hold a charge okay if you turn off the nice cancelling. If you leave it on the battery life is maybe three hours. The case is able to give for to give full charges before it has to be recharged. The case itself is a bit odd as it isn't hard on all sides around. The top is a stretch material that molds around to hold everything in. To summarize, doesn't start connected all the time...-1 star. Missing controls...-1 star. Case design...-1 star. Not anything I'd want my brand name on
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Excellent Lightweight Mouse
on May 8, 2022
Posted by: Garfwiz
from Tukwila, WA
Greal for my gaming on the go as well as general PC usage as well. This mouse has a lot of things going for it. It has a lot of programable buttons in very convenient places. I like that I have multiple options to use it. I plugged the USB dongle into my PC and paired it via Bluetooth with my laptop. All I have to do is flip the switch and it connects almost instantly. The software allows me to program all three lighting sections separately, so it fits in with the rest of my lighting designs. I also could change what the buttons did between machines so on my laptop it had really accessible browsing buttons and on my PC I could have custom macro setup for when I'm gaming. It has five different modes for customizing how it tracks based on the game. In my MMO playing I can get from one side of the screen super fast but it can be super finite on games that need finesse. There are some down sides. The pads on the bottom didn't glide as smoothly as other mice on my table top. I also don't like that the lighting "turns down" if I'm not touching the mouse.

Not really over the ear
on May 3, 2022
Posted by: Garfwiz
from Tukwila, WA
I'll start with the big issue. These are on-ear headphones. The only way you could call these over-ear is if you had really small ears, were very petite, or were a teenager. I really expected them to be a lot larger. That was the main reason I knocked 1 star off. The size comes just to the outside of my ears. I ended up forgetting I had them on because they are so very comfortable. I also love the ability to adjust the volume on the cable when cut scenes get loud all of a sudden. The sound on these headphones is awesome. I was able to use these on both my gaming PC and on my phone. The other really nice things I didn't need an app to use them. There is no reason to have to install an app just because I wanted to listen to the gameplay. To compare these to my previous headphones, these are more comfortable and have caused less ear pain after wearing them for really long periods. I also find that the microphone adjusts a lot better as well. I have struggled in the past to get good mic placement.

I really do like them
on January 8, 2022
Posted by: Garfwiz
from Tukwila, WA
I like these for a lot of reasons. However, I don't love them enough for 5 stars. They pair super easy and I love that the case cleans them after each use. The controls are really good and I love that the companion app gives sound options and access to ANC and passthrough. I actually wish more things had to option to use the case as a wireless base. It is awesome that I can plug the case in and listen to my desktop PC. The part I just can't love is they are hollow sounding. I can't get a good balance that gives enough base. Phone calls are fine, podcasts and audiobooks are super close, but music is just not up to standard. I'd give 4.5 stars if I could but 4 will have to do.

Very good but not outstanding

Posted by: Garfwiz

I expected more. The voice controls work well and you don't have to talk very loud. I wanted it to control more outside the Amazon ecosystem. If I am listening to a podcast or SiriusXM, nothing. Won't pause things, cannot ask to open them. The sound is good, but added features kill battery life. The different sized ear cups help customize the fit. The outside wraps are really hard to put on. If you are staying in the Amazon system, they are great. If you use different ecosystems, think before you buy.

I was surprised at just how quiet these make it. I spend an hour wearing these during lunch and thought a a wind storm was inside the building when I took them off. I could still hear a hit of things around me and that is a good thing. Total silence is weird. The app allows you to switch it over to hear things around you very clearly. They stayed connected well too.

Not easy to fit

Posted by: Garfwiz
from Tukwila, WA
I have used a lot of different masks since my job never went work from home. This mask gets points for working well once fit. I like that it has good coverage for stationary uses. If you have a smaller face, put it on and go! I don't have a smaller face so I had to work at getting it to sit right. I talk for work, it failed on that. I wanted this to work for me but it just didn't.

I've used a mesh system before and I highly recommend this one. It has all the things you are going to need for current devices and none of the things that will be years down the road before you need. Setup is really easy as the app walks you through everything.

Excellent Performance, needs something
on July 16, 2021
Posted by: Garfwiz
from Tukwila, WA
I got this laptop to game with and it does that awesomely. The graphics are super crisp and I play with it on max settings. Not a flicker or missed frame I could see. The tuning software works well and I like that there is a button to put it in super high fan mode to keep the computer cool.
It is missing a few things I thought would be there.
No touchscreen, not a big deal but I am used to having one
No ethernet jack, WiFi 6 makes up for it but only if you have WiFi 6 on your router
1080P screen, could have expected a slightly better screen but it most likely was a decision between refresh rate and resolution
No Windows Hello Camera, webcam it has is good but really?
I did have a few true dislikes. I don't like the fingerprint reader being in the touchpad. I could have done with just one more USB port for a USB to ethernet adapter.
Overall it is a great gaming laptop.

I am so glad I got these!

First off, while these are not going to replace your "good" headphones for listening to music, they are not half bad sound-wise. For meetings though, the sound is awesome. Voices are clear and YOU sound clear as well. They worked with my phone using USB-C when I had a last minute call and couldn't get to my laptop as well. The tuning software is good but you don't need it to use these. Mostly just allows you to turn the voice prompts off.

When will this be available? Also can i add more ssd or hd? Finally how loud are the fans? Thank you

There is not a way to add another ssd.
The fans are really quiet in everything but turbo. In turbo it is like a vacuum cleaner.

Plus, setup is fast with the Linksys app, so you can enjoy the next evolution of Wi-Fi in minutes.
 

Does this have to run on battery?

You plug it in to the wall with an included power cord. It has a good size block plug that is longer then it is wide so make sure it has a bit of space around the plug

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 - 7" - 8GB: Juggle tasks at work and enjoy movies at home with a tablet that is portable enough for your commute and powerful enough to keep up with your busy schedule. The quad-core processor provides quick performance that your entire family will enjoy.
 

Out of the box, is only 4.69 gb of the listed 8 gb capacity normal?

This is the space available when I turned it on. I realize that OS and apps take up some space but this seems like a lot.
Yes! I recommend taking the office apps off and finding a smaller option
