A great budget electric shaver!
on April 20, 2024
Posted by: msumulong
The Philips Norelco Shaver 2600 is an entry-level or budget wet-dry shaving system from Philips Norelco. Overall the Norelco Shaver 2600 is not much different than other shavers from Philips. One thing though is that functionality wise it does not fall far behind other models.
First of all, the build quality is nothing to write home about. It is made from plastic but still has a rubber coating. Do note that other Norelco shavers are made from plastic but this specific model seems to be of lesser quality. That said, it is still a wet and dry shaver.
It has a decent if not long battery life. Once fully charged, the shaver can operate for approximately 50 minutes which is actually quite long. Charging the shaver is done through a proprietary USB-A cable. However, I wish Philips have just used an ordinary USB cable whether Type B or Type C. Also, a power charging plug is not included. But then again this now applies to all Philips Norelco shavers.
Powering on the shaver is pretty straightforward. Just push the button. But unlike other models, it has only on power setting. Also, there is no power meter but the unit flashes just in case power is low.
It also has a pop up beard trimmer which is a nice touch. And lastly it comes with a travel pouch. And while it is not a hardshell type of case, the canvas like material is enough to protect the unit.
And finally, while the Philips Norelco Shaver 2600 is ot premium model, it pretty is capable. As such, I am recommending this in spite of being a lower end model.
I would recommend this to a friend!

It serves a specific demographic
on April 6, 2024
Posted by: msumulong
The Lively Mobile 2 Medical Alert System is a simple device that may be of importance for someone who may be an emergency risk. Being a recent amputee, I thought that this device may be of help in my situation.
Prior to use, you must activate and register by providing your account information. After registration you may now charge the Mobile 2 device by placing it in the base station. Upon charging, you will receive voice prompts indicating that the device is charged and ready. Also, you will be notified if service is available.
Usage of the device is fairly simple as there is only one button to press to make a call and a customer service assistant to answer your. This assistant will coordinate everything needed for your situation. This also includes connecting to 911. Using this device is easy peezy. There is a power button at the back of the device should you decide to turn off the device for whatever reason. Do note that the device powers on when charged.
That said I still have musings about this device, And please don’t get me wrong here. The main reason or my musing is that smart watches and cell phone can replicate the functions of this device. To note further, there is a monthly service fee also involved whereas there are no additional charges for using a smartphone and smartwatch combo. And this also covers fall risk.
So, is there still a use for this product? The short answer is yes. However it will more for a specific demographic. This device actually works. But I firmly believe this device is for the elderly and technology averse. For some people, operating a smartphone is still complicated and thus use older technology. This device would be perfect for them. But for the younger generation or technologically aware demographic, the value or utility may be of question.
So prior purchasing device is for you to fully assess if this is the right device for you.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

An efficient yet affordable laser printer
on January 21, 2024
Posted by: msumulong
Laser printers came about way before the advent of ink jet printers. I remembered the time the time you can print various fonts and graphs albeit in black and white way back in the day. Dot-matrix printers ruled then. And to beat, printing speed was up to par with photocopying machines. But it came at a cost. Mostly offices used laser printers. And home users were still left with dot-matrix printers. Then came inkjet printers which took over until today. So the question is “Are laser printers still relevant today?” The short answer is “yes”. And the Brother HL-2400D black and white laser printer is one such example.
The Brother HL-2400D laser printer is generally an entry level laser printer suited to small office or home use requiring volume printing. As mentioned in the product description it a black and white printer. But it is safe to say most users just print text and not pictures. And as for graphs, black and white is still acceptable.
It is a no frills printer with the size comparable to a shoe box for boots. And it is not an all-in-one printer but straightforward printer. And this particular printer is connected via USB cable. But quite unfortunately no USB cable is supplied. Seriously Brother? Luckily for me, I have an old USB cable lying around somewhere. And for those wishing for a wi-fi connection, there is a wi-fi model available with similar features.
As for the printing features, this printer has as far as I know has a print rate of 32ppm which is three times the 10ppm of most inkjet printers. To add, the standard cartridge of this laser printer can print up to 1,200 pages. And if that is not enough for you and you still want to save money also, there is an XL version that can print up 3,000 pages. In either case, you won’t be switching cartridges as often as ink jet printers.
So really, this is a no frills printer but does the job efficiently. I would definitely recommend this printer.

A handy case!
on December 28, 2023
Posted by: msumulong
The Best Buy essentials™ - Portable Apple MagSafe and Watch Case is simply what it is which is a case. One of the hassles of having multiple devices is the fact that you would have to deal with different devices. The Best Buy essentials™ - Portable Apple MagSafe and Watch Case is no exception to that. And having two cables can be a hassle at times.
This case is a simple case that can tuck in your two most common charging cables namely the MagSafe charging cable for your iPhone and your Apple Watch. Made from silicone materials, the case snugly tucks both cables in one convenient package.
Once attached to the portable case, both your Lightning cable and Apple Watch charging cables and be wound in each of the folds of the portable case. Once wound in the case, the charging case can be folded like a bi-fold wallet or more likely a purse since it has a strap to keep the portable case from not opening.
Once folded, the portable case lives up to its name and is easily portable that it can fit your pocket in your jeans. This case is really convenient and there is not much to describe this further aside from the fact that it is very handy and portable. I would definitely recommend this case to others.

A basic monitor
on December 21, 2023
Posted by: msumulong
The LG - 24" IPS 3-Side Borderless FHD 100Hz AMD 100Hz Freesync Monitor or simply the LG 24MR400 is a basic monitor for general use. As mentioned in the description it is a24 inch monitor which in my opinion good for most people meaning it’s size is good enough for general home or small/home office use and/or casual gaming. It is also described as borderless monitor but in truth as in the case of other brands of monitors, it is not exactly borderless as there is around a half inch bezel in the monitor. Regardless, this is still way better than the really thick bezels found in previous monitors.
The LCD screen is matte but when turned on is quite bright. I couldn’t get exactly the number of nits but for me it is somewhere between a glossy screen and a really flat colored monitor. It also boasts of a refresh rate of 100Hz which is still short of the usual 144Hz found in most gaming monitors but still higher than the usual 75Hz. So again this is middle of the road – not spectacular but not bad either.
The build quality is quite plasticky but then again it would not really matter-at least for me- since it would be sitting on a table. And like all monitors, it comes partially assembled – meaning that the stand is not yet setup in the screen itself. This obviously is intended to save space in packaging. But no worries, assembly is quite simple. Just attached the stand pole to the base and attach the monitor to the stand pole. No tools are even required.
Connectivity is pretty much simple. It has an HDMI port and a D-Sub port. However, I wish it had dual HDMI ports rather than its existing setup so that I can setup my PC and Mac without buying an HDMI switch. A power brick is also included in this monitor.
The LG 24MR400’s operation is pretty much simple as it has a button at the back which also acts as a D-pad. Also, I have noticed in the back that there are holes for a VESA mount should you decide to use one. The LCD can also tilt for better viewing angles but unfortunately, the height could not be adjusted.
This monitor in general has nothing to write about but then it is not bad. It’s simply a new model that can handle today’s requirements. So in spite of oits seemingly lack of killer features, I would still recommend this monitor.

A great strap
on December 14, 2023
Posted by: msumulong
Most straps for the Apple watch are practically silicone based and are quite similar to the originals included when you buy an Apple watch. If not, your options would be leather, nylon and the steel mesh.
The Insignia Braided Nylon Band for the Apple watch is more of an exception to the other but rather vanilla designed silicone, leather and braided metal or steel straps found elsewehere.
The Insignia braided nylon band is essentially a one piece strap which is made of stretchable material. And though the product descriptions indicates it as made from nylon, for me it seems more like cotton as it is soft.
Construction of the Insignia case seems to be well built. The nylon fabric (which again seems more like cotton) seems to be premium grade. The buckle and the metal thingies used to attach to the Apple seem to made with lightweight metal and are painted black. The paint finish seems to be well made but only time will tell if it will last. But so far so good. Only time will tell if it will last. Once worn, there is a good "latch" of the watch to your wrist making it good enough for most activities.
Overall, the strap seems to be of good qulaity and comes in several colors. Mine comes in a somewhat olive drab color. And everything said, this seems to be a good watch and is worth recommending to others.

A nifty security cam
on December 10, 2023
Posted by: msumulong
Arlo has been one leading wireless security camera systems in the past few years. The Arlo Essential Outdoor Camera. This is a second generation model but with minor enhancements. And like other Arlo cameras, this security camera is battery operated. But this time around, the battery is built-in unlike the first generation cameras from Arlo which I currently use. Charging the Arlo device is done by USB charging. Do note that only a cable is provided. You have to provide your own charger though.
The main features of Arlo is live video streaming and audio which is pretty much standard fare nowadays. This camera by the way is in HD or 1080p and not 4K. But in real life application, 4K is too much and that 1080 seems to be the sweet spot.
And for those not familiar with Arlo, Arlo systems being battery operated is not open 24/7 in order to save battery life. This is where it seems to shine as it is vey convenient. A single charge can last for months and being wireless, this means installation is pretty much a breeze since one you do not to wire it to your base station and two you do not need a nearby outlet. Do note that the Arlo like most internet devices use the 2.4Ghz band for further reach. But one thing to note is that this model can be used with abase or no base at all. I have the first generation Arlo system that uses a base but this will be included in my list of Arlo devices.
The Arlo system is also known for its being customizability. Of course motion detection is a standard. And so are timers = to activate them or not. Videos are stored in the cloud and viewable for a week for free. Should you decide you want a longer time, Arlo offers a paid version of their services which allows you to save the videos longer.
But one thing that stands out for me is the geofencing capabilities of the Arlo system. This practically enables you to automatically operate the Arlo system wherever you go. Most of the time you would forget to activate your Arlo system when you leave your house. With geofencing, the Arlo will activate once you leave the house and turn off when you go back home. This feature is the most handy for me.
And lastly Arlo has incorporated Alexa and Ok Google to its products. This is not a dealbreaker for me since for privacy and security reasons, I tend not to use any of these services. But for those who use these services, Arlo also has a solution for you.
Overall, the Arlo Essential Outdoor Camera is a nifty wireless camera and I highly recommend this security camera.

A great budget laptop
on November 17, 2023
Posted by: msumulong
In the age of ultra-portable and fast laptop computers and 12-inch tablets, one would wonder if there is still a use case for entry level budget laptops. Lenovo’s IdeaPad 1 is one such laptop.
First of all the Lenovo IdeaPad 1 is no speed machine. It sports a Celeron N4020 processor with a minimal 4GB of RAM. Storage is 64GB but not SSD but rathe EMMC. This definitely won’t wow speedfreaks out there. Also the N4020 is also dated. So the question is can a dated Celeron still be relevant in 2023?
First thing is that this IdeaPad runs on Windows S which some may find lacking. But it’s quite easy to convert it into Windows Home. I won’t discuss it here but you can always go to YouTube. But setup is a breeze and I installed Microsoft 365. It handles Outlook, Word, PowerPoint that well. But I really cant say the same for Excel as I only tested small spreadsheets. But if I try work related spreadsheets which can have hundreds of rows, then I believe this can suffer. Also, surfing with MS Edge is fine. But it kind of struggles when there are many websites open. Google Chrome seems to fare the same. But I understand, Google Chrome is a memory hog. So overall speed performance for me is acceptable. But one thing that disappoints me is that it uses the slower and older eMMC storage rather than an SSD.
But what about the hardware. The IdeaPad sports a 14-inch LCD screen. As expected, it is not tiuch screen capable. It has a matte screen which I prefer compared to glossy screens. Unfortunately, the screen is only at 720p. I’d personally favor it if the screen is 1080p. But then again this is a budget computer.
The laptop itself is of decent quality and not plasticky as some similar laptops come. Also, it’s cloud grey color gives it more polish. The keyboard IMO is topnotch for its class. It’s not “rickety” as some keyboards are. It has the basic HDMI port, two USB ports and one USB-C port, an SD card slot and a headphone jack. But what is notable is the battery life of this laptop is that it is rated at 11 hours which is in tablet territory. Most laptops would fall under around four hours of battery life.
While the Lenovo IdeaPad 1 is no speed monster, it still has its uses especially for those with a limited budget. That said I’d still recommend this laptop.

Simple and easy to use
on October 30, 2023
Posted by: msumulong
Vtech is a name associated with quality baby products, the 5 inch smart wi-fi 1080p pan and tilt monitor is one such product. Using the said baby monitor is pretty much easy. Just plug the monitor and the camera and just make sure they are near one another and you are good to go. Please note that the monitor itself has an internal batter so that you can move it around. But the problem with a direct connection is that the distance between the monitor and camera is that it is limited. The good thing here is that there is a wifi option for this monitor. But more on that later.
Operation of the baby monitor is simply straightforward. Press the menu button on the monitor and you can have access to its main features including a pairing command to your phone. Features include what Vtech calls the WeeSleep sound and light profile which helps set the tone for baby to sleep. To add it has a touch adaptive color night light again sets the mood for baby to sleep. The included camera a a pan, tilt, and zoon function and also includes 24 times zoom capability. Resolution of the camera is at 1080p only. For some this may be a big deal but for me it is fine since I am not making movies and truth be told is already quite decent since we are talking about a five inch screen here.
As mentioned earlier, there is an app for this baby monitor and it is available in both iOS and Android. Do note that most video enabled devices utilize only the 2.4Ghz band for a greater range presumably. Once connected you can update your firmware. But in my unit, the product is up to date. With that you can have an extended baby monitor.
The Vtech Smart Wi-Fi monitor is a fairly simple product but is quite capable and simple to use. I would highly recommend this for those who have new borns.

Great for mobility
on October 27, 2023
Posted by: msumulong
Mobile gaming is a somewhat neglected segment in the gaming industry. Quite often mobile gaming is limited to simpler games. And AAA games which are ported to mobile gaming are often limited to the lack of controls especially when phones nowadays barely have any buttons. One such solution is to add a game controller designed for mobile device. But the problem with most mobile game controllers is they tend to be big. The Turtle Beach Atom Controller is one such solution.
The Turtle Beach Atom Controller is a blue tooth powered mobile game controller. It is charged via USB – C cable wherein a cable is also provided. What separates this device from other mobile game controllers is that it is modular making it compact when not in use thereby making it a portable accessory. It is joined magnetically making it compact. But once separated it fits into both ends of your phone. Please note that this version is for the iPhone. And though it i connected via Bluetooth, there is no guaranty that it would work on Android devices.
Once paired and attached to my iPhone 13 Pro, I tried it with several mobile games. First is that most games will connect automatically like with Asphalt 9. But I’ve noted that there might be some control issues. And for games such as Call of Duty, I am of the understanding that it works only in multiplayer mode. So your mileage may vary.
As for the keys in the Atom Controller, all the keys usually found in gaming controllers are there and the tactility is quite similar too. Overall, the Atom Controller makes sure that your mobile gaming experience is as fun as possible. I would recommend this.

Worst experience ever buying this phone
By Gourav
I brought this phone for $50 during Thanksgiving and this phone was delivered to me after 30 days but I thought OK its late but may be worth it.
I start using this phone and haven't made even 5 calls this phone restarting by itself every min, so i did factory reset and tried all other suggestions from online forums but nothing helped. Since this is under warranty i had to ship it Alcatel repair center but on my own pocket expenses, AH!.
Alcatel should cover shipping fees as its their fault that their phone is faulty.
Alcatel don't even have their store/facility locations where i can go give my phone for repair physically rather paying for shipping.
I would also recommend that Best Buy has brand name and they should NOT allow low quality brands/product to be sold on their site.

Alcatel covers shipping costs
April 20, 2017
I also bought mine during Thanksgiving and had the same problem. I called Alcatel and they acknowledged that there is a hardware problem and emailed a shipping label for FedEx. Within a week or so I received a replacement phone via UPS. Do note I did pay for shipping and replacement of my phone. In fairness to Alcatel this replacement phone does not have the random reboots anymore.

Printed 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,

Has anyone noticed it being hot? Not quite sure if it would be ok for my laptop.

It becomes very hot. As per my initial use it use somewhere between 60-70C but I've read someone measure it as high as 81C. I purchased a 1mm copper heatsink with thermal tape and attached it to this SSD. As per my measurement temperatures range from 34C to 46C. I've read somewhere 50C is still considered normal or acceptable. Note not purchase the 3mm heatsinks (the ones with fins) as they are designed for desktops. 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.
