Great Choice For Avid Gamers
on March 8, 2025
Posted by: Posted1
I have had previous experience with Corsair products and they have always been good. This SCUF - Valor Pro Wired Performance Controller is no exception.
Build quality is top notch. And the tactile feedback from the control sticks and buttons are great. The thumbsticks utilize Hall effect (magnetis sensors) to reduce drift and deliver more accuracy. The wired connection also polls at 1000 hertz (1000 times per second) giving the gamer more accurate feedback time.
So my experience, as a 54-year-old gamer with 54-year-old reflexes and 54-year-old eyes, I can't notice the differnce, but I certainly appreciate the great quality and feel.
Having said that, my son is 23-year-old son is not only an avid gamer, but he is also a U.S. Navy Nuclear Engineer with 23-year-old reflexes and 23-year-old eyes, and he says that there is a noticable difference. I will take him at his word and say that yes, a wired controller may be superior to some gamers.
End of the day, this is an excellent choice, especially for the avid gamers. I would reccomend this

Posted by: Posted1
This is my first experience with Ultraloq. Having never heard of them before, I was a little weary. nAfter doing some research, I discovered they do design and manufacture decent quality equipment. They are sed in Califirnia but manufactured in China. That is not uncommon.
My first hands on experience backed my research up. This is a quality lock with a good mass aand build qualiy. Install was as expected, pretty easy. That being said, I have installed several locks and door handles over the years. If you are not very experienced or handy, I would reccomend buying a handy neighbor or friend a nice adut libation in return for their experience and let them install it for you. I didn't necessarily "time" the install, but it was probably twenty minutes or so.
Once insstalled, set up and operation took another few minutes between the app and setting up wifi, codes and fingerprints. Once it was operational, the lock was surprisingly robust in build quality and confidence. It also offfered a great deal of flexability in granting one time or temporary codes. The fingerprint capability is also a nice feature.
End of the day, this is a great choice and I wouldreccomend it to a friend.

This. Thing. Is. A BEAST!
on February 6, 2025
Posted by: Posted1
I'll say it again, This. Thing. Is. A BEAST!
This review is going to focus on user excperience, (set up, user experience etcetera) and less on technical specifications. Why? Well, because there are so many places one can go to get the tech spec's (BB.com, Samsung, other reviews from BB.com, expert reviews...) and so on.
FIrst experience, it is HUGE! And I mean that in only the best possible way. Scooping it up from my porch throught the entry and family room and then into my office and onto the guest chairs, I placed it to unpack. Sliced the box open and went to unpack it, and was welcomed with a styrofoam piece that heldmpieces for the base and mount, as well as power and a spartan first use guide.
After removing the apperatus and styrofoam, I was able to remove the monitor and GENTLY place it on ,y desk. I installed "mount", then installed the base, turned it over, installed the power and the HDMI and I was off and running.
The power and control button are on the BACK of the unit and are not necessarily intuitive. It took me a minute to find, but it's about 1/3rd of the way from the right. Not easy to find, but once you know it's there, it deos feel a bit more natural to use.
OK, so that is the set-up.
For the user experience, this is an awesome moniter. It's huge, curved and tech specs are impressive. I played Forza 5 and I felt like I was at the track. It was very cool to feel that immersed.
COD was very immersive as well. Picture was so crisp, so clean and bright. No complaints at all!
End of the day, this is a exceptional monitir. If you have the need and the means, you can't go wrong with this beast!

Great Multi-use RoboVac
on February 4, 2025
Posted by: Posted1
I have had previous experience with eufy products in the past and have always been impressed. This product did not dissapoint. I knew eufy made wireless cameras and security systems, but I had no idea they also made vacuums. Appaerently, they have been in the vacuum business for years. Who knew?
In any case, when I had the opportunity to test this, I jumped on it.
Set up was pretty simple. Basically as expected for a typical robot vaccuum. From box to bot was maybe 20 minutes or so.
As far as effacacy, our main floor is almost 2800 square feet, and it's a combination of hardwood with throw rugs and the other half is carpet. I've had other robo vacs that had gotten "confused" with the layout and combination, but not this little guy. After a few runs, it learned the lay of the land and never looked back.
The other neat feature is the 3-in-1 aspect. It's super convenoent to have the hand-held vac at your beck and call, and it works great.
End of the day, if you have a need, this is an excellent choice.
I have and would reccomend to a friend.

Take your creations to new heights with HMD Skyline. Its cameras are packing tricks to help your shots really take off. Most of us know the feeling of dropping a phone and cracking the screen. With HMD Skyline, it’s not that big of a deal. Its Gen2 repairability basically means that you can just pop off the back cover and you’re in. Then removing the screws and replacing the screen in a breeze after that. Best of all, the phone looks like it comes from a catwalk and not a factory floor. We can’t turn off all the background noise in your life. But help us help you with some of it. Activate the digital Detox Mode to disable the visibility to your social apps. Don’t worry, they’ll be there when you turn the mode off. Until then, enjoy some time in the real world. We’ve also added a touch more zen to the rest of your Android . The Balance Interface, has a few things moved around to make finding them easier. It even sounds more chill with alarms, notification sounds and ringtones that won’t have you jumping out of your skin. Make your phone more “you” with the Custom Button. You can set it up so that it does one thing when you hold it, and another thing when you double-press it. It’s your shortcut to your favorite game, navigating home, asking the AI-powered assistant of your choice weird questions, and more.

Unresolved Issues That Even Counseling Did Not Fix
on January 29, 2025
Posted by: Posted1
Swing and a miss...
I really wanted to like this HMD Skyline, and it did have some unique and kind of cool features, it had one fatal flaw. For whatever reason, my unit would ONLY show my screen apps in grey-scale. I tried factory reset several times, I did a software update, I looked at all the usual things that a techie guy would look at and nothing.
Next I went to their tech support team and we sahred several e-mails back and forth (the tech support was timely and relatively, for what that's worth) but after multiple setting changes, still only showing in grey-scale. End of the day, they had me fill out a form and agreed to repair/replace.
While that was a decent resolution, it was not a good way to start our relationship.
As for a phone, it does what you expect from a phone. Nothing outstanding but no complaints.
I mentioned it had a couple cool features... One was the fingerprint sensor was on the power button on the side. It worked well and was convenient.
Another cool feature was the customizeable button on the side. In the software, you can easily configure to to do two different things. One with a long press and one with a double press.
I thnk it would be a decent phone if I can get one that works, but not a good experience with the phone so far.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great Choice For Haptic Feedback
on January 26, 2025
Posted by: Posted1
I have had the fortune of dealing with several Razer gaming devices over the years, and have yet to be dissaponted. I have had the Razer BlackShark V2 Console ESports Headset, BlackShark V2 Console ESports Headset, Razer Kunai RGB 120mm PC Fans, and the Razer BlackWidow Elite keybpoard and others. In all cases the Razer products have peroprmed well, been eas to use, easy to set up and all have a very good build quality and feel. This Freyja Sensa hapic chair is the same experience. Qualiity look, feel and build. Exactly what what one would expect from Razer.
Set up was simple (as always), unpack, plug in, plug USB, add new device and your off and running. My 22 year-old son is an AVID gamer. He was home for a few days from his job as a US Navy Nuclear Engineer (proud dad bragging, sorry!) and he LOVED it. He said it really added immersion. Me being almost as avid of a gamer, I agree!
I won't get into any specifics becasu you can find that on the BB site, the Razer site, and many of these other fone reviews. But I will say that if you want to enter the world of haptic feedback, this is an excellnt choice!
End of the day, this is a great choice!
I would (and have) reccomend to a friend.

Excellent Choice For A LARGE Home
on January 15, 2025
Posted by: Posted1
In this review, I am not going to get into any "tech spec's" since they are readoily available from the Best Buy and ASUS website's as well as other reviewers. Instead, I am going to try to paint a picture of the environment I have deployed and tested this in, hopefully giving you a picture of whether or not this will meet your needs.
That said, I have a fairly large house. it is 2800 square feet on the main level, 1500 sq ft on the second and another 1500 sq ft in the basement. Additionally I have an 1100 sq ft attached "4 seasons" room that attaches the main house to a 1500 sq ft enclosed pool are. For clarification, the enclosed pool area is similair in construction to a green house. In all, it is a large are to cover for even, reliable and stable WiFI.
OK, that is the environment, lets talk about set-up. Overall it was pretty easy to follow the instructions. From first unit to 3rd node, it was maybe 20 minutes and that includes s/w updates and the 3 nodes calibrating.
As for set up, I had a 3 node mesh unit prior, and as a CWNA (Certified Wireless Network Administrator), I have much experience in wireless networks. I placed 2 node on the first floor, 1 on the north side of house, the other directly in the middle and the third on the second floor. After testing, I had ample coverage and speed in the entirety of the interior of the home as well as well outside the home.
In all, this is an EXCELLENT choice, but ONLY if you have the need. If you live in a small apartemnt or home, there are other more appropriate and less expensive options for you.

Value Item To Protect Your Phone
on December 25, 2024
Posted by: Posted1
Over the years, I have had a great deal of experience with Insignia line of products, both as a buyer and as a Best Buy TIN member. I have rarely been dissapointed and this Insignia™ - Anti-Reflective Glass Screen Protector is no different.
Lets start with Insignia. Insignia is Best Buy's in-house branded product line. They use major manufacturers of name brand product to manufacture the Insignia brand. It is always a a good product at a value price.
I got this for my wife as I am NOT an Apple fan, but as is common, most Apple users are fiercely loyal. She had just recieved her new iPhone 16 so she was excited about getting this product. When I recieved it, I gave it to her and watched her unpackage, read instructions, and install. This comes with an install kit. From the time she opened, read instructions, and installed the screen protector was maybe five to seven minutes. That is to be expected.
The protector was very nice. You have to look for it to know it's there. There is a slight difference in "feel" on the screen as far as tactile feedback, but that is not anything new. Most screen protectors a re like that.
End of the day, this a great value-add item at a value price to protect your expensive phone.
Great choice if you have the need!

The Blueair Humidifier rapidly provides humidification up to 500 sqft. Designed to create more comfortable sleep air through an easier, cleaner humidification experience.

With the UV-powered water pump that recirculates water, the risk of bacteria growth in the water is heavily reduced. Easy maintenance with two ways to refill and an easy clean tank, which has a large opening for no hard-to-reach spots, or is dishwasher safe for a deeper clean of the unit. Achieve better sleep with the highly rated Blueair app, as the AutoHydrate feature uses sensors to monitor and adjust your specific environment. Want it to run through the night?

Great Choice If You Have The Need
on December 10, 2024

This is my third foray into Blueair... And like my previous two experiences, I am not disspointed. this Blueair - InvisibleMist 0.9 gallon Evaporative Premium Smart Top-Fill humidifier is a great addition, if you need it.
Having a pretty small cabin in the Colorado Front Range Foothills, the winters can be biting. And when it does get cold, the heater and the fireplace really dries out. While we have a whole house humidifier in our main house, our cabin is only 3 rooms with baseboard electric heat and the fireplace. Needless to say, the air can get quite dry. And sleeping in dry air, it's not uncommon to get dry noses and lungs, and also the occasional bloody nose.
Enter the Blueair - InvisibleMist 0.9 gallon Evaporative Premium Smart Humidifier... We visited the cabin last weekend, and as usual, we cranked the baseboard heat when we arrived and started a nice, roaring fire to get the internal temp up the low 70's. And as usual, the air started to dry out. We set up thiis uinit and within 25 to 30 minutes, we could immediately feel the differece. And at night, the comfort of sleep was considerably better.
For our unique situation, this is the perfect solution. If you have the need, this is the perfect solution!

Not Great For Us Larger People...
on December 3, 2024
Posted by: Posted1
OK, here's the deal... I gave it a 3 star rating but I will admit, some of that rating is due to my big man-head and ears... That said, this is an honest review based on my personal experience.
First off, the item is decent quality from a build perspective. BlueParrott is owned by Jabra and my favorite earbuds are Jabra. I have always had good experience with Jabra, but this particular product was somewhat dissapointing.
Trying to pair was a little frusturating. It absolutely would not pair per instruction on the box until I downloaded the app. I have, as a Best Buy Top 50 TIN reviewer, paired countless BT devices over the years. This one was certainly not one of the easiest devices I have paired.
OK, once it was paired, the app was so-so at the best. Not a lot of controls from the app but that's ok, I'm not a huge app guy.
Putting it on, I think it should be comfortable for most but it was super-tight on my great big head. And the ear-cup did not comfortably cover my ear but instead it "smashed" my ear into my head. It was not a particularly comfprtable fit.
End of the day, I gave it to my wife. She's going to use it for playing video games with our US Navy Nuclear Engineer son. It seems to fit her head and ears considerably better than mine. If you are bigger person, these may not be the best. If you are on the average size, I'm sure these may be a decent choice.
JMHO!

how do I get my mouse to move properly on my intel computer screen
I'm not sure I understand the question. You should be able to plug the USB into your PC, turn your mouse to the "on" position and have it operate no problems.
