Perfect mouse for my desktop pc
on September 17, 2020
Posted by: Todd
from Herky, MO
I got this in exchange of my unbiased opinion and review.
I really like the compactness and ergo styling of this new Logitech mouse. I've owned probably 5 or more Logitech mice over the years and I've never been disappointed.
This is smooth when running across my mouse pad and is easily customizable. I like it's compactness compared to other larger mice I've owned.
This has a nice and sleek feel in the hand and is very comfortable for long use.

Sound good when they work

Got these for the PS4, they look and sound good. Comfortable over the ear headphones, but over half the time they won't connect to the USB dongle. I don't know if I got a bad set shipped to me or what.

Perfect for milk shakes ans smoothies
on August 29, 2020
Posted by: Todd
from Herky, MO
I recieved this item in return for honest and unbiased review. I must say this blender makes my favorite milkshakes and fruit smoothies with ease. Cleaning is easy since everything but the base motor is dishwasher safe.
I recieved this in stainless steel finish and it matches my stainless appliances perfectly. The suction cup basefeet are a nice added bonus, they keep the blender from vibrating across the counter top. The easy poor lid on the larger bender pitcher is really nice. Ive yet to try making any type of dough, but I'm willing to bet this will make it with ease.
So far this has been the nicest blender I've ever owned. The smaller personal smoothie or milkshake cup is great. It even has a built in flil top lid for easy drinking.

Perfect for my needs
on August 17, 2020
Posted by: Todd
from Herky, MO
I picked this battery back up oversized power strip for my spectrum modem and wifi router. No more wifi outages during sudden power outages of a few seconds during thunder storms.
I don't consider this small, its roughly 15 inches long, 6 inches high, and 4 to 5 inches deep. I tucked it behind my TV stand, which hides it perfectly out of sight. Just plug this guy into a electrical outlet and power it on, and your good to go the next time a storm hits and knocks out the power.
This has 6 battery and surge protected outlets and 3 with only surge protection. Thankfully that more than enough for my current needs.

My new favorite over the ear wireless headphones
on August 16, 2020
Posted by: Todd
from Herky, MO
I recieved these in exchange of my honest review. Ill start by saying, wow these wireless noise cancellation headphone by Sony sound incredible. I've never been one to spend over 100.00 on a set of headphones, as normally I prefer to listen to my music through my floor standing tower speakers and a powered sub. But late at night its nice to have a decent pair of over the ear headphones when you wanna listen to music or even videos on YouTube. The noise cancellation works wonders at drowning out louder surrounding noise, and its defeatable if it not your thing also. But at this price I would assume your buying them as part of this feature alone.
These Mark 4s don't disappoint in anyway, whether music or videos the sound is clear and crisp with a nice amount of bass. The headphones are very comfortable on your head and ears. I never found them to be fatiguing or uncomfortable in anyway. Just a joy to listen to, I found myself noting nuances in music I never heard with my old headphones. Also I love being able to switch/connect between my S10+ phone and my tab s6 tablet, great feature.
The side cup controls for skipping tracks and turning up the volume works so well, I was surprised by how well it worked. Usually I find myself not using features like that but the ear cup controls are super easy and helpful on these sony headphones. Google Assistant is also nice to have to aid in controlling smart home features as mh lights and thermast.
The only con I can think of is I couldn't get them in white, which really isn't bad. The included padded carrying case is a great added bonus for traveling, and keeping the headphones safe from damage. If you don't own a pair of these over the ear sonys, do yourself a favor and pick up a pair. You won't regret the decision one bit...

Good companion for the surface go
on July 8, 2020
Posted by: Todd
from Herky, MO
I recieved this in return of my unbiased review frkm the Tech Insider Network. I like that this is a magnetic keyboard/screencover, functions well with my surface go. I really like that the keys are back-lit, makes using the surface go at night so much easier without need for turning on a light.
I'm surprised by how stiff this keyboard is for as super thin as it is. For being connected via magnets to the surface it stays connected solidly. All the keys and touch pad have great responsiveness to them as well. This is a must have if you purchase any surface tablet.
My only complaint isI don't care for the suede like finish on the outside of the cover, but thats minor.

A decent alternative to a P.C.
on July 8, 2020
Posted by: Todd
from Herky, MO
I recieved this item in return of my unbiased review from the Tech Insiders Network. To start this is a nice alternative for a laptop or p.c., I really like the responsiveness of the touchscreen. The rear kickstand comes in handy as well, especially when using the Microsoft docking keypad/ screen cover. This surface go with its Intel pentium processor is pretty snappy and multi tasks well. This device gets pretty warm to the touch under very light use.
Battery life is pretty good considering the tablets thin dimensions. Storage of 128 gb is ample in my opinion for software and apps or games. I tend to let my 2 sons use it for school work and myself for surfing the net. I really wish there was a included pen & wireless mouse, but those are a extra cost. I really like the built in face recognition for signing into the tablet. No need for a password with the face recognition, which I really enjoy. The two forward facing speakers are decent.
I was happy to find out this has wifi 6 built in, and connects seamlessly with my Asus wifi6 router with a speedy connection over wifi. Build quality is very good, seems to be made of aluminum rather than cheap plastics. Overall this a good tablet capable of multitasking easily, but I wou,d reccomend getting a wireless mouse and pen for it as well.

Perfect robot vac and mop
on April 24, 2020
Posted by: Todd
from Herky, MO
Just what I need for my hard wood floor and my carpeted areas. This bot works perfect on both. The bot connects to your wifi via ecovac app, setup takes roughly 5 minutes. Then allow 5 to 6 hours for a full charge. To vacuum I setup my vac and mop bot to be controlled via my google assistant or newly name best display. Simply state start cleaning the floors and away to work this little machine goes.
The bot avoided my furniture and base trim without any whacks or dings, never even touched it at all. Cleanup is easy, just lift its hood and empty the canister. Included with the vac is 6 throw away mop pads, two replace ment dust bristles, a new filter cartridge, as well as a washable mop pad. To mop with the vac fill the tank with purified water, the attach the mop pad and this mops my hardwood floors while avoiding my carpeted areas altogether. Pretty neat to watch in action.
This only connect to 2.4ghz wifi, which makes sense. As 2.4 band has a longer range of coverage. The only area I found disappointing was when the bot needed charging toward the end of cleaning. It took a long time and had trouble routing itself back to its charging base, that I positioned between my dining room hutch and a decorative butler figure. The base is centrally located in the center of my home, which is 1500 sq ft.
Imo compared to another vac bot I own this works just as good, but is half as loud, which I did find nice to the ears. I highly recommend this bot to anyone looking for agreat quality robot vac and mop combo.

Perfect for blogging and selfies
on February 3, 2020
Posted by: Todd
from Herky, MO
This shooting grip paired perfectly with my @6100 camera. No problems getting this paired up with my camera, works well for blogging and selfies. Also great for taking videos, as it helps you stabilize your camera easier.
Not many buttons on the grip making it easy to use and figure out its functions. Uses a CR2303 battery which comes in the package, nice you don't need to worry about charging. Included is a microfiber storage bag for storage.
Imo this is a well designed and thought out camera grip by Sony. I really like how easy it is to use.

Good Budget gaming PC
By Paul
Bestbuy really doesn't give much info on the exact internals so here they are. The motherboard is a gigabyte z170-hd3p, the ram is Adata brand 2133mhz 2x4gb, cpu i5 6600k, stock Intel cpu cooler, toshiba 2tb hdd, lg dvd drive, gpu is the amd r7 250, and it's all powered by a generic 400w power supply. Overall a good budget pc that will run games on low to medium settings. If want high to ultra settings I suggest upgrading the power supply to atleast 500w and the r7 250 to a nvidia gtx 970. Since the motherboard is a z board you have the ability to overclock the cpu. (Very easy within the BIOS).

GoodCoverage
By HeadZeppelin
This is a free sample product received from Linksys Family and Friends program and is really awesome looking, it performs well and gives good signal coverage throughout my three room apartment.
I was dissapointed to find it has no WPS button anywhere, and it dosen't recognize my wireless printer, it's probably something simple and I haven't contacted tech yet, I'm sure it will work fine when I can do that, You can't go wrong with Linksys.
You will be impessed by it's looks and the coverage you get from it, If you invest in one I'm sure you won' be disappointed

Absolutly amazing
By BoomBox
this is honestly one of the best headphones I have ever purchased in my life, and definitely a step up in Razers game of audio-phile grade headphones. they are very comfortable and sound amazing with a very balanced frequency signature. I'm so glad they upgraded to 50mm speakers over last gens 40mm. if you want a reasonably priced music headphone, look no further. I would recommend the 7.1 chroma variant for gaming though, plus those come with stickers, these, sadly, do not.
