Good clarity headphones
on September 4, 2018
Posted by: msumulong
from Glendora, CA
I recently received this unit and my initial impressions that this is a light but comfortable headset. The headband is made of plastic but a metal band also reinforces it. The headphones are not over-the-ear but rather on-ear meaning the cups press on to your ears rather than cover around your ears. For some there is a presence for the former but in this case, the cups press softly as the cushions are quite comfortable to the ear. Overall, the headphones seem well built but only time will tell if they will be able to handle day-to-day use.
The headphones come with a neoprene case, which is a nice addition not found in most headphones. Also, there is a usb dongle included for use with computers without Bluetooth capabilities and also the charging cable can also be used to connect to the headphones and at the same time charge it while in use. Further, the cable included can be used with any usb plug to charge the headphones.
Pairing the headphones is a breeze in devices with built-in usb. And if the dongle is used, it is automatically paired to the headphones. I cannot ascertain if the device’s Bluetooth range is really 100 feet as there are numerous walls in my and connections get dropped from time-to-time. But direct range from the device seems to provide a solid connection.
I have tested the headphone on iOS devices and on a Windows 10 machine both via Bluetooth and cable. I have done a Face Time call and call quality is impressive. Voice clarity is excellent both in outgoing and incoming parties. I also experimented with Skype on Windows to a Chromebook and I also got the same call quality. Furthermore, I tested this headphone for music and though the clarity is there, bass seems to be lacking. But then again this is not designed really for music. Still the sound is decent enough for use while working in the office.
So far, my wish list includes that the headphones should have manual volume and mute controls, a 3.5mm jack and better documentation. These are what prevents me from giving this five stars. But still I would highly recommend this as the main function of this gadget is above expectations.

Excellent retro heaphones
on July 28, 2018
Posted by: msumulong
from Glendora, CA
Physically this product is styled similar to portable cassette player headphones. Not only does it have black foam headphone covers, it also has orange ones making this a truly retro device. Of course it has sone differences and the main one would be the addition of bluetooth. But unlike most bluetooth headphones, this one has an equalizer mode to fine tune your audio preferences. Audio quality is pretty much decent but its design being retro allows music to escape. This is where in-ear heaphones have an advantage. Battery life is pretty much good and can last me the whole day. As for the fit, this pair is pretty much comfortable. But I wish the headpones were a bit larger. Lastly charging the headphones are a bitcunbersome as you the usb port is quite hard to reach. And due to these minor cons, I am removing one star. But don't fret on these. If you still want to go retro, I would still recommend these headphones as they still provide a cool and retro feel and have decent audio and battery performance.

Awesome sub-woofer
on July 22, 2018
Posted by: msumulong
from Glendora, CA
First of all I am no audiophile. I am making this review as someone upgrading from using a passive sub-woofer to an active one. It goes without saying that the sound emitted by this 240-watt sub is much louder than my previous 50-watt sub. That said clarity in this sub is notable compared to the usual muffled bass from sub. From that point of view, there's not much to say about sub-woofers. But one neat feature of this sub-woofer is the app that controls the settings of this sub-woofer. Of course you can reach out of the back to control the settings but using it from your phone is always a plus. There is also an optional wireless control and if you also have compatible speakers you can use a mobile app to fine tune your whole speaker setup.

Good entry-level computer
on June 30, 2018
Posted by: msumulong
from Glendora, CA
First and foremost, this is not a review of Chrome OS but rather a review of the hardware itself. First the exterior is made from plastic and has a brushed aluminum type of finish and therefore not a fingerprint magnet. Also this has a celeron processor which is adequate for day-to-day computing. And since this is a Chromebook, performance is quite snappy. The screen itself is 1366 x 768 which is fairly good enough. Storage is at 32gb which is more that what other Chromebooks have. But it could be better if it was 64gb or higher. RAM at 4gb is quite sufficient for the use of this machine. And the keyboard spacing is quite far enough. It has USB types A and C on each side. But unfortunately, there is no hdmi ports. For this I have removed one star. Other bonuses include a Wacom branded which is quite good but I wouldn't be using anyways and Acer branded sleeve. And lastly, the 360 degree swivel converts this into a tablet thereby adding further functionality.

Awesome cable
on June 30, 2018
Posted by: msumulong
from Glendora, CA
First, one might ask if there is a need for this cable in spite that iPhones have an adapter included already. Good question one might ask. However the primary advantage of this is that it has a direct digital connection to your speaker or receiver/amplifier. I am by no means an audiophile but I can say it minimizes any distortion in the connection. Also a defective or plain dirty male-male cable can provide distortion or cracking sounds. This cable prevents this. I have tried this in my ION speaker and compared to bluetooth, there seems to be less distortion. For this simple reason, it is worthwhile to consider this cable if you want to maximize the audio quality coming from your Apple device.

Awesome for a low end phone
on November 24, 2016
Posted by: msumulong
from Glendora, CA
This phone is considered a low end phone made by Alcatel which is a French company but is now a subsidiary of TCL a Chinese company. That said this is pretty much a good phone given it's size and resolution and performs quite well. And if needed it can handle two SIM cards. The feel though is "plasticky" and may turn off others. I just got this phone today and so far it performs as expected except for the volume which is rather low when headphones are used. I went into engineering mode and found not option to increase volume. For this I deducted one star but would still recommend this.

I bought this headphone assuming it had a mic. But when I picked it up, it didn't have a mic. I returned it on the spot. Buyer beware.
PS
I had the non-mic version bought from BestBuy. But then again I am buying the one with a mic and is shown in the picture.

It is great for its price point
on April 18, 2016
Posted by: msumulong
from Azusa, CA
Sure other reviewers will great this phone a bad rap but then again they are comparing it to LG's flagship phones which costs around $500+ against a sub-$100 phone. That said it has some drawbacks which are actually wish lists like it has only 8GB on board memory, has a non retina-class or similar display (but bright, sharp and detailed display for its size), has only a 2.4Ghz Wi-Fi connection speed and has no NFC. If you are looking for these features, look for another phone. And lastly for selfie-aficionados out there, the hand gestures and voice command for the front camera are awesome. I can't think of another phone right now that can beat this at its current price.

Great monitor at a great price!

Posted by: msumulong
from Azusa, CA
Pretty much has been said about the other reviews which are all positive save for the built-in speakers. But I'd like to point out that the two HDMI ports is a hidden gem. I use primarily a Kangaroo mini-desktop PC which is Atom based. With the other port I can connect my laptop for computing power or connecting another media streaming device such as a Roku. This has not been emphasized. So 'nuff said.

Best 60x its price range
on January 27, 2016
Posted by: msumulong
from Azusa, CA
This is the best 60x ultrazoom below $200. Though arguably the Nikon and Canon 60x ultrazooms have better image quality at the far end and have more bells and whistles like Wi-Fi and GPS, these models range from $400-$500. This model is less than $200. And since I got this in a blowout sale for $149.99 with free Lowepro bag and 8FB SD card, that further sweetened the deal for me.

Good, but photo download problem
By rangerdon
This is a fine camera in many ways, but after losing some photos and a conversation with Panasonic, I learned that you must use the included panasonic software to download photos. (I use Picasa.) That makes the camera less than 5 star, since iPhoto would have the same problem - so if you buy this, and it is a fine piece of equipment, use their photofun software to downloard

Internet not exactly slow and processor not bad
November 24, 2016
The wifi performance is good. However I found it odd that when I used fast.com to measure speed, the phone registered 20 mbps which by itself pretty good if you're using a phone. But since I ran it simultaneously with my pc, my pc had a 70 mbps. Also the processor is not bad. It is not the latest and is commonly found in low end or rather entry level android phones. If you want a better phone you might want to consider the POP 4S which is similar but has an octa-core processor at 1.8 GHz, 2GB RAM 13 mp camera with a fingerprint sensor at $170. This sells for $150. So the $20 dollar difference is worth it. But the Black Friday deal sells at $50. So I got this phone. :)

Crash
By MarkTwain
I wanted to like this phone. The specs were just fine. The screen was just fine. The only complaint I had was that the phone reboots frequently. Fresh off a factory reset, it would constantly reboot before I could even set it up. As a software engineer, I am disappointed that software like this can even be released. This is not the way to showcase a brand and the reason for many returns on otherwise perfectly fine hardware.

Letting it rest seems to do the trick.
December 11, 2016
A lot of Alcatel models are like this including my Pop 4+. It seems that if you have a boot loop, let the phone rest for a few minutes then restart. do this even if you have wiped data. But this shouldn't happen at all especially for a new phone.

POP 4S has a faster processor
December 11, 2016
as mentioned in the title, if you need a faster phone get the 4S. It has a 1.8Ghz processer and 2GB RAM. There are three POP 4 phones - POP 4/POP 4 Plus/POP 4S wherein the 4 Plus is the mid-tier POP 4 phone. But for $49.99 during Black Friday, why not?

When it CAN be used its good, But it cant be used.
By Reona945
The phone keeps restarting even though the battery has more than enough charge. I've tried a hard reset and that hasnt helped. A factory reset stopped the cycle and i managed to use the phone for like 20 minutes and the phone restarted. When we ordered the phone, we also ordered a case from a third party. At first we thought the case was pressing the power button because it was a tight fit but it didnt seem right. There was also an incident i had in the past with the one touch evolve that was exactly the same. I would like to hear back and now if this can be fix :) Have a nice Day!

Reboot loop
By Proz
After having the phone for less than 1 month, I took it on vacation where I didn't have service. On the way my phone started to restart randomly. When I arrived at my destination the phone started into a reboot loop. If I caught it booting up quick enough occasionally I could navigate for a couple minutes. Even after I was able to get wifi connected and any other setting I thought could affect it such as gps location disabled the phone continued into the reboot loop. After researching on many blogs and andriod q and a sites I couldn't find a helpful answer to remedy the issue. I reluctantly did a factory reset but the loop continued. Finally, after returning back home I attempted to use the phone and it returned to "normal". I am very dissatisfied and I am generally very easy to please. I will be looking for another device to replace this asap.

I also did the factory reset to ease the symptoms. But it seems to be the gps module as then random reboots often occur when I am in my car and mobile. Also when I use Yelp and try to get directions, the phone restarts. No problem when I'm home though.

Good quality, but issue with 4G
By Praveen
I purchased this phone on black Friday because bestbuy was selling at $50, the phone had 2-yrs warranty, and Alcatel is one of the few good brands. I was excited about this purchase thinking that I paid only $50, but my excitement did vanish in a couple of days when I found that the phone restarts itself. After keeping an eye on the phone for a few days, I found that it restarts only when I drive or I am in a remote area. I googled about the issue and luckily found the reason behind restart. I am using T-mobile connection and had turned 4G LTE on. The 4G LTE service of T-mobile is not available in all areas of ABQ and therefore whenever I drove in areas where T-mobile signal was weak, phone used to restart. My phone never restarted in my school or in my house as T-mobile signal is excellent in these places. To fix the issue, I changed the network settings in my phone and set 3G as the default data service and after that it never restarted.
So, if any of you are facing restart issue, just stop using 4G LTE and use 3G. This solution worked for me. Hopefully it might work for you,too.
My finding is - this phone supports 4G only if the strength of the signal is excellent, otherwise, it restarts itself. But I don't know why doesn't it ,like other brands, work in case of bad signal. My friend has samsung phone and she never had the restart issue though we go to all the places together in the same car.
All other features of this phone are like samsung phone - my the most favorite brand. I haven't observed any other issue and the phone works like charm. Speed, sound quality (the default music player doesn't have equalizer, so you might try VLC music player), picture+video quality, and call quality are just superb. Finally I started loving this phone.

The 1mm copper heatsink fits perfectly on ,y HP Pavilion gaming laptop replacing the meatl bracket (with thermal paste) holding the old SSD.

Meet the second-gen Nest Hub from Google,* the center of your helpful home. Stay entertained in the kitchen with shows, videos, and music. In the living room, control your compatible lights, TVs, and other smart devices with a tap or your voice. And in the bedroom, Nest Hub can help you wake up easier with a Sunrise Alarm.
 

What are the improvements over the first generation hub?

Soli motion sensing technology was added. You can have basic controls of the hub by just swiping over the screen. But generally Soli is used to track your sleep instead of cameras. Other than that, faster processing and slightly better sound quality were added too.
