Great on paper but needs work
on November 12, 2024
Posted by: msumulong
The NextBase Piqo is part of Nextbase’s latest line of dashcams which I would lable as smart dashcams. I understand there are three variants of this line namely the full hd version, the 2k version and the 4k version. All function pretty much the same save for the resolution. The model I am reviewing is the 2k version.
Inside the box one can find the Piqo cam. Do note that the Piqo does not have a built-in screen. (More on that later) A USB C cable and dual car charger so you can also charge your phone will using the dashcam, an extra mounting plate, a cable pusher, cleaning cloths and safety stickers. And my unit also came in with a 32GB micro-sd card which is handy so that I wont buy an SD card anymore. However, I am not sure if the bundled SD card is standard or just a promotion considering the product is new.
Setup is easy. The inner box has QR codes to help you do the initial tasks which includes the downloading of the app and physically the dashcam. It’s really so simple. Mount the dashcam, insert the SD card, connect the cord to your charger and start the car. And like most dashcams, there is an optional kit available if you want to have it hardwired to your car. But that may need professional installation and may cost more than your dashcam. For me, it’s simply not worth it.
Upon doing the initial physical setup, the app will ask you to connect via Bluetooth. And in some cases, the app may further prompt you to a firmware upgrade immediately. My unit underwent a firmware upgrade immediately though you can always do a manual update. From thereon you can already enjoy the benefits of the Piqo dashcam.

The Piqo offers nifty features both paid and free in the such as high clarity (obvious), an emergency SOS, smart parking meaning it will start recording when there is bump in your but this is a common feature nowadays. You can also download videos to your phone via direct wi-fi.
Now here is my complaint with the Piqo, while on paper it is great I cannot get a live video feed from the Piqo using the app. As mentioned I’ve already updated the firmware but to no avail. And since it is new, support is still minimal. But perhaps there are compatibility problems with iOS. I have recently updated my phone to iOS 18. Who knows? Stange thing though is that it can record videos. And I can view them through the app. Whatever the cause it, it is not yet ready for prime time. That in mind, I would recommend that you wait for further firmware updates so that this issue can be fixed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great Premium Earbuds!
on November 4, 2024
Posted by: msumulong
Sometime during 2023, Technics launched a pair of earbuds which would be their primary earbuds namely the AZ60M2 and its bigger sibling the AZ80. These two I believe are the follow up to the AZ60 and the AZ70 a few years back. And I find it quite odd that the AZ60 has a Mark 2 but the AZ70 has the AZ80 as its replacements. Nonetheless, this review will focus primarily focus on the AZ80 and with some reference to the AZ60M2.
First these two generally identical to each other. In fact I have both the AZ80 and AZ60M2. Thankfully my AZ80 is colored midnight blue and my AZ60M2 is colored black. But if you look closely at both, the AZ80’s mic and earpiece are angled more on a horizontal plane aligning with the Technics logo whereas the AZ60’s mic and earpiece are angled downwards. Perhaps that’s the most distinguishable difference between the two models aside from the gold Technics logo on top of the case so as to indicate that the AZ80 is the premium product.
Both models share similar features which are included in the app. Bothe models come with eight pairs of earpieces to accommodate various ear sizes. And within the app, there is a best earpiece fit which detects if there are sound leakages. Both models have the standard features of ANC earbuds namely control of ANC and ambient sound plus EQ presets as well as a custom eq. The earbuds are also touch control which can be adjusted through the app again a standard feature for most ANC earbuds. And both are built with premium quality plastic which does not either model feel cheap.
As for the sound quality, the AZ80 as well as the AZ60M2 support AAC and AptX. I do not have an Android device so I can only evaluate audio coming from an iPhone. I general the sound profile is conservative. And though it can be loud it does not raucous sound profile like that of Airpods (2nd gen) and some other earbuds. Instead, the sound is much cleaner or refined when used in loud volumes.
The AZ80 has larger driver obviously being the premium earbud compared to the AZ60M2. As mentioned earlier, the sound profile is very similar to each other. But one thing I have noticed is that the AZ80 still has clarity at full volume whereas the AZ60M2 has a little bit of distortion but barely noticeable.
In conclusion the AZ80 is the better model of the two obviously. But its younger sibling is not far behind. If you want to splurge, I would definitely recommend the AZ80.

Way better than the cheap ones out there!
on October 17, 2024
Posted by: msumulong
Ok, the Apple Air Pods first and second generation have been around four years. And for most first adaptors, these Air Pods most likely have home juice left in them. But I wouldn’t be surprised that the charging case would have had a lot of beating in them and also most likely have stains which cannot be removed. And as much as one can love the Air Pods, a good redress to make it look decent would be of help. Now, here comes the Best Buy Essentials Air Pods Silicone Case for first and second generation models. These are nothing fancy and in fact similar to generic ones sold in that famous auction site or former online bookstore. It is simple a wraparound silicone case with a key ring. Nothing fancy save for the fact that it comes in various colors. What is notable with Best Buy’s case that it is thicker than the generic ones out there. And though these are still new, I am getting the impression that these will last long. To take things in perspective, I used to have one of those generic ones and the top lid already tore off after a few months. So, I would rather spend a bit more on these cases rather than going for cheaper one which I would have to change occasionally. So, I would recommend this case over the generic ones out there,

Great but should have included a manual
on October 11, 2024
Posted by: msumulong
The Corsair K70 Core TKL Wireless keyboard is the latest iteration of this popular series. As a current K70 wired user, I would say overall this would be an incremental improvement over the former. And quite obviously the main improvement of the new K70 core is the addition of being wireless capable. In addition to having the usual USB wired connection this keyboard , Bluetooth connectivity is added as well as a dongle. In addition, support for Corsair’s redesigned/renamed portal iCue software is added. And on the top right of the keyboard, one can find physical media control not present in previous iterations. And Corsair was kind enough to include a wrist pad with the keyboard.
So, what’s included in the box. Of course the keyboard itself, the wrist pad, a USB C cable a dongle which boasts super fast speeds, and warranty and safety guidelines. Unfortunately, there is no manual nor a quick start guide. For those familiar with Corsair product or gaming keyboards in general this shouldn’t be a big deal. But for new gamers than can be a source of frustration. And upon checking the Corsair website, I also couldn’t find any documentation for this keyboard. And while this keyboard is new, this still should be a reason not to come out with documentation whether printed or online.
Performance of this keyboard when wired is at par with the wired version but the wireless connection is likewise comparable to the wired version. And when compared to your regular wireless keyboard. And this keyboard like most Corsair keyboards live up to what it claims. And these include minimal input lag whether wired or wireless and sound dampening. This keyboard is fairly quiet but not totally quiet.
So the million dollar question is, should you upgrade? If wireless is not your priority, then this keayboard is not for you. But if wireless is a priority, then by all means get this keyboard. But unfortunately, due to the lack of documentation, I would deduct one star from this keyboard.

Great if you already have Swann products!
on October 4, 2024
Posted by: msumulong
As the age the internet of things arise, most are now online based which may be a convenience but at the same time as disadvantage as most products are now subscription based. This now includes your common video doorbell. But the Swan EVO wireless video doorbell changes everything. It has both internal storage and cloud but paid cloud services. Of course there were other brands out there that came out there but Swann is part of an ecosystem. I am biased here because currently I use the Swann Fourtify and CoreCam surveillance cameras.
Inside the box are the video doorbell itself an included chime (Note that competing brands sell this separately) a mounting bracket and a quick start guide. Setup is fairly simple. Just charge the phone first. And while charging the phone might as well download the app if you haven’t done so. Pair the video doorbell to the app and the chime also. Place the mounting bracket where you want to and you’re good to go. And if you are putting it where your old doorbell is, you also have the option to set it up using your old doorbell’s wiring. Wiring is also included.
Basic features include HD video (who needs 4k?), full head to toe angle viewing and two way audio. Video is then stored in an SD card but you also have the option of subscribing to cloud services similar to other Swann products. In my case, no longer subscribed so as to say money and that’s a good thing. I would definitely recommend this product.

It works but needs improvement
on October 1, 2024
Posted by: msumulong
Aluratek’s PicStick is badicallty a dongle that your connect to your TV via HDMI to convert it to a digital picture frame. Inside the box you can find the dongle itself, a USB-C cable, a power supply, a remote with AAA batteries, an infra-red cable and of course a quick start guide.
Setup of the PicStick is simply straightforward. Download the FrameTime app either in iOS or Android and create an account. Connect the dongle to the TV and don’t forget to power the dongle via the supplied power supply. Turn on the TV and you can copy the photos in your phone to the dongle. From thereon, you can view your pictures on your TV. And you can even share your account with other members so you can have more pictures. And if that is not enough, you can also use a USB dongle to transfer picture too.
Setup seems easy that almost anyone can do it. Well not so fast. First there are some improvements to be made here. First, the slideshow feature doesn’t seem to work. Or perhaps, an auto slideshow is not available as you have to use the remote to move on to the net picture. And while you can upload video, it doesn’t seem you can hear audio. And lastly, I do not see the value of the IR cable since the dongle can function without said capable.
While there is potential for this product, it is hard to recommend it due to the reasons mentioned above. Perhaps a firmware upgrade can remedy these issues and then maybe this product can reach its potential.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Meet the Tineco FloorWasher Pet 5 Series, a cordless 3-in-1 that vacuums, mops, and self-cleans~engineered specifically for homes with pets. Like the popular Floor One S5, it delivers powerful wet/dry cleaning on sealed hard floors so you can pick up pet hair, muddy paw prints, and everyday spills in a single step instead of multiple passes. Where FloorWasher Pet 5 really stands out is its pet-optimized hygiene. The anti-microbial brush roller is designed to help inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria on the brush, while the included pet cleaning solution helps tackle lingering pet smells as you clean. An upgraded brush head reaches closer to baseboards and into corners, and the slim, cordless design makes it easy to maneuver around pet beds, food bowls, and litter areas. You~ll get up to 35 minutes of runtime to handle kitchens, hallways, and high-traffic zones, plus a self-cleaning dock that automatically flushes the brush and internal tubing when you~re done~so you don~t have to touch the dirty roller. If you~re comparing it to the standard Floor One S5, FloorWasher Pet 5 offers similar core performance with extra focus on pet hair, pet messes, and cleaner-smelling floors, making it the smarter choice for busy pet households.

The Tineco Smart Cordless Floor Washer is a small miracle os sorts. Of course we are used to traditional floor mops. But this smart floor washer is a level up in efficiency. One, it operates like a normal vacuum cleaner which makes its convenient to use. Two it is cordless which makes it very mobile. Battery from what gather gives you a life of 35 minutes or so.
The unit comes pretty pre-assembled that you only have to attach the handle which is actually a snap-on handle. Put on top of the included base then attach the charger. And in an hour or so, you’re good to go.
The box also includes extra brushes and filters and a bottle of their liquid concentrate. Tineco suggests that you should only their brand but all manufacturers state that.
Once fullt charged, you detached the clean water reservoir at the back with water then add a capful of cleaning solution. And then clean your floor.
Operation is easy as is it is a one touch operation. In the body of the washer, there is a control panner to monitor cleaning. As you clean, treated water is spread on the floor and your brush gives the floor a firm cleaning. As you clean your floor, the liquid is also suction to minimize liquid on the floor. And if you only want to clean a wet floor, there is a suction only function.
Overall, this is a highly efficient and easy to use that a child can operate it. I would highly recommend this washer.

A solid magnetic wireless charger
on August 27, 2024
Posted by: msumulong
Ok. Wireless car chargers are nothing new. So what does the Velox Mini Qi2 Magnetic Wireless Charger offer which other chargers before it offer? Well, there are several things that the Velox can offer prior to its predecessors. First is the charging capability. Most early magnetic wireless chargers have rating of 5 watts. That is very slow by today’s standard. Of it naturally followed suit that a 10 watt charger would be the norm. But these technologies tend to overheat. Then years later Velox comes out with a 15 watt charger. And after using it for a week, I have noticed that charging speeds were more of acceptable levels though the baseline is for 20 watts or higher for iPhones. Next would be the margnetic capanilities of this charger. And though this is not labelled as MagSafe compatible, it is in fact compatible. I am guessing legal issues are being considered here. But what engages me most is that the magnetic strength of this charger. Even with a thick case, the magnetic strength is strong enough to hold my phone without falling everytime I hit a speed bump. My old wireless charger does that. Design wise there not much to btag about as it is shaped as your usual wireless magnetic charger with suction cup. One thing to note though is that its arm is extendable making the view angles way better. I can’t much more about this charger but to give it high praises. I would recommend this definitley.

Two 2.5 Gbps ports and a USB 3.0 port offer maximum flexibility for connecting wired devices and sharing files across your network. Upgrade your home Wi-Fi today and experience the future of connectivity with the Archer BE6500.
Posted by: msumulong
The TP-Link Archer BE6500 is a wifi 7 enabled router which boasts up to four times the speed. While as of this moment most have only begun to adopt to wifi 6 including myself. As of the moment I am using a wifi 6 enabled TP-Link mesh router and l am quite happy about it. But let us see if it is worthwhile to upgrade to the TP-Link Archer BE6500.
Offhand, the TP-Link BE-6500 with its mesh design looks like and ordinary. It has a mesh design which is quite ordinary. And the connectivity options are the usual one ethernet port connecting to your modem and four ethernet ports for devices that require a hard wired connection. The main difference between this router and others is that the main ethernet port can support 2.5GBS and one of the four ethernet ports also has 2.5GBS speeds and the remaining three ports have 1GPS. That is a lot! Unfortunately I could not test it since I only have a 1GBS internet connection at home.
One thing you’ll notice also is that it has six antennas. Do note that these antennas are strong. My home has 5,000 square feet and I need a mesh router (also by TP-Link) but my front and back yards have weak connections. And if I am connected to other nodes, my speeds go down by half. With the BE6500, I have strong connections allover and my speeds have a of 600GBS hence negating the need for a mesh router.

With the BE6500, I have strong connections allover and my speeds have a of 600GBS hence negating the need for a mesh router.
So far these are the good points. But I have a couple of things to nitpick on. First I ny experience, it wasn’t a plug and play setup. A direct connection at the beginning did not result to a connection. I had to connect to the portal first so I can configure the router. I find this a bit odd, since I’m able to connect to the internet immediately. And when I connected to the internet, I as prompted to a firmware update. Easy peasy. However, when connected, there are no indicator lights which made me to get in touch with TP-Link support. I found out that the indicator lights are turned off by default. You have to disable the lightd through the router’s settings.
Overall, this router seems to be another of those routers, but in truth, this router is fully packed. I’d recommend this.

Fully automatic belt-drive turntable

A simple gateway to vinyl!
on August 16, 2024
Posted by: msumulong
Vinyl has long been the dominant music format in the 20th century. However, it rapidly declined with the rise of MP3s and lately streaming. But in the past few years or so, it’s making a comeback because for some the analog sound is way better than digital. But unfortunately for some the costs and inconvenience of listening to vinyl, had made it hard for mass consumption for the second time. The Audio-Technica belt driven and wireless turntable aims to bridge the gap.
First, the Audio Technica is shipped with without hot being fully assembled. One would simply attach the plate te to the turnable and put on the vinyl mat and you’re good to go. There are two ways to connect the Audio Technica. One obviously is via Bluetooth. There is a pairing button om the left side of the unit and just give a long press. The other way to connect is via RCA cables. There are two modes which can be set at the back. There is the standard mode that you need to have an amplifier to connect to the speakers. The other mode is to connect to active speakes such as PC speakers.
Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to test the turntable via stereo speakers since I do not have an amp. I was able to test the turntable via Bluetooth speakers. And as per my experience, sound output is a hit or miss. Using my Sony Bluetooth speakers, I wasn’t able to get good sound. But I used my Sharkk Bluetooth speakers, everything sounded better. So for Bluetooth speakers your mileage may vary. But I am pretty sure this would sound better with a proper amplifier.
Lastly, this is a belt driven turntable with a fixed weight tone arm which are fine by me. But for vinyl lovers there, these two will be a source of a lengthy debate. Let’s just enjoy the warm crisp sound of vinyl IMO since this is an entry level turntable. I would definitely recommend this one!

1 out of 5Printed well until ink needed replacing
By Macinzim
Every time I try to print or scan it tells me that I need to replace an ink cartridge to access anything on the printer. Ex: I replace the magenta and print one black and white document then it tells me I need to replace the magenta again. Epson customer service tells me "replace the ink cartridge" and nothing else. Printing one 5 page black and white document per month is costing me approximately $20 per month.

Everytime you replace a cartridge, calibration reduces ink in the other cartridges. You'd be better off with tri-color cartridges,

Its rich, thunderous bass in a compact, 10-inch cube makes it easy to hide and even easier to hear. Wireless connectivity allows you to place the Bose Bass Module 500 nearly anywhere. Leave it next to the TV or put it under your entertainment center - the choice is yours.
Can this be paired with the Bose SA5?
AFAIK it is only compatible only with the Bose 500, 700 and Soundtouch 300 soundbars.

The stylish Bose Soundbar 500 speaker is meant to be heard, not seen. Its thin profile fits discreetly under the TV screen, while its powerful acoustics fill the room with sound. And with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant built in, all your favorite music is just an ask away, or use it as a central hub to control your existing smart home devices.
Is the 500 newer than the 300 and can you use with cinematic 15
The Bose 500 as well as the 700 were released August this year with the 700 being the replacement for the 300 as the latter does not have Alexa capabilities. All three soundbars like most soundbars have built-in ampliers. Also the three soundbars can use each others sub-woofers and share a common rear surround speaker model. But AFAIK these the 500 and the other models were not designed for the Cinemate series.

Google Play store states this phone does not have an Accelerometer, so cannot be used with Google glass.
Given that it is a low end Android phone, do not expect that it will have an accelerometer nor NFC. GPS and BT are standard features though.
