Great tablet for just about everyone
on May 20, 2016
Posted by: LouRevue
from Washington, DC
An entry level/budget from Acer packs quite a nice punch that will suit just about anyones needs.
With so many tablets on the market, it can be challenging to find one that suits your needs. iPad's are great as are some of the Samsung/LG tablets. Acer's entry level/budget tablet One 8 will, honestly, fit just about anyones needs for a tablet.
With a 16GB onboard storage (expandable with MicroSD card), quad core processor and Android 5.1, this will serve pretty much whatever purpose you need. Even though I own an iPad Pro, I think the 8" tablets are the perfect size. I have the iPad Pro for watching movies/streaming so big screen helps. With the 8" tablet, for portability and use, it's spot on in terms of size/dimensions. It'll fit in your purse/backpack without taking up a lot of room and is extremely lightweight. With the Android OS (assuming you're down with Google), you have access to everything you need as far as communication/media/productivity.
Standby power is great and should last a couple days or so. I was able to get a good day out of the battery with moderate use. YMMV but I think it's safe to say that battery life shouldn't be an issue for most folks. the screen, despite not being HD or Retina, works well. It's a budget tablet so it won't have all the bells and whistles like higher end tablets have and it's reflected in the price. The cameras are so-so in quality. I think we've all been spoiled with our cell phone cameras and the quality pics they produce. While this can take decent quality pics, don't expect super hi-res images from this.
For a sub $100 tablet, I think this is a great pickup for just about anyone really. College student, kids, your parents, even you. While it might not appeal to the techy/dork crowd, for the average person, this unit will do more than suffice.
Only "weird" thing for me was the location of the SD slot. It's on top of the tablet. Usually it's beneath the back cover or somewhere enclosed. Not really an issue however with my case on the tablet, little concerned about it accidentally unmounting the card when situated in there.
Overall, great piece of technology and, for the price, won't put a huge dent in your wallet.

Your household is busy streaming media, working online, and playing games every day. This Linksys Wi-Fi Router will expand your network coverage, send signals directly to your devices, and deliver a lag-free connection, even when you’re all online at the same time.

This router is the latest model from LinkSys and it is truly a beast. At first look, almost seems like it came straight out of Aliens or something with all the antennas (8 total) on this router. With all the antennas, this will mean that multiple devices/users in your house/office will be able to connect seamlessly. In addition to cellphones/tablets, your TV/Blu-Ray player and streaming devices can also connect and receive decent data speeds on your network. The setup of this router is very simple, almost plug and play. Also works well with LinkSys wifi extenders too if you have one. With the multiple antennas, its basically like each connecting device has its own router. I have a couple laptops, phones and a few other devices all vying for some router space. With this router, connection to the network and load isn't an issue anymore which is nice. Only real issue now for me is just my internet speed. Once I'm upgrade my connection to a faster one, then this router will truly live up to its potential. For now though, I'll live with it just formidably handling the network load at my place.
Great router and highly recommend.

No more dead spots, great for gaming too
on May 16, 2016
Posted by: LouRevue
from Washington, DC
This is a nifty, if not necessary, device for your home/office network. If you live is a 2-3 level house or if you have a large office space, there will inherently be some dead spots on your Wi-Fi network. At my house, it's the basement.
Initially, I wasn't sure something like this would work as described however, much to my surprise, it does work and works great. The WiFi is sort of weak in the basement. It works but could be much faster. Hard wiring a connection isn't really an option so something like this unit fits the bill. In the upper levels of the house, there's a consistent 3-4 bar signal (out of 5 bar) however in the basement, it hovers around 1; 2 on a good day. After plugging this in and connecting it with my router, I was thoroughly surprised that there was a 3 bar connection in the basement. While the speeds of my WiFi are somewhat sporadic, per Speedtest, I'm getting around 9-12 Mbps in the basement which is superb.
The biggest thing for me is that my PS4 is in the basement. Playing multiplayer on a shoddy connection isn't ideal however it's something I've been dealing with for quite some time unfortunately. Since I'm able to hard wire a connection from this unit into my PS4, connection speed has increased and stabilized to the point where I don't rage as much when playing online ;)
Must say, pretty impressed with this unit. In addition to boosting my WiFi signal, it also negates the need for hard wiring a connection directly from my router to my PS4 which, ultimately, is the only thing I care about. Purchasing a 100ft ethernet cable was the only way for me to accomplish this as well as some in floor drilling .Product like this not only makes things easier for me, also makes for less headaches when it comes to game time.

Next gen wireless for the whole family
on February 8, 2016
Posted by: LouRevue
from Washington, DC
So for those not sure what MU-MIMO is, basically it enables multiple users to utilize the wifi signal in your home/business without degradation of the signal/speed.
Normally, with a lot of older model routers, there is one antenna. This antenna needs to supply signal to your phone or your laptop. In the event where multiple users needs to access the wifi, the single antenna must supply signals to all those devices. In today's age where you, your kids,spouse, in-laws, etc., all have smartphones and/or tablets, older wireless routers can struggle a bit with supply signals to all those devices. Where MU-MIMO comes in is it enables those same number of users to connects to, not one, but three antennas. This cuts down on the strain the single antenna routers would experience and allow more than one person/device to connect to the router while maintaining consistent data speed.
First thing, this WILL NOT make your wireless speeds faster. That is totally dependant on how fast your wifi is so if you're wifi speed it around 20Mbps, it'll be the same. What the MU-MIMO router will help with is supplying a more consistent data speed for all users accessing the router. Since there are three antennas to this router, this helps normalize/balance the load of data transfer put on the router. Using a single antenna router, being accessed by 3 devices, you can expect a little slower speed due to the load being placed on the router/antenna. The multiple antenna on this router splits the load to distribute a more even, consistent data speed as more users access the router.
Assuming you got a consistent 20Mpbs speed on your internet connection, a single antenna would be fine if it was just you accessing it on your laptop/game console/phone. Add more devices/people to the mix, more load gets placed on the single antenna router causing it to slow down speeds in order to keep up with all the devices connecting to it.
Having used this router for a few days, I can see a noticeable improvement in overall speed being delivered to my devices. On any given day, I'll have my iPhone/iPad/Laptop/PS4 tapping into the wireless. While streaming on the laptop, partaking in raids in Destiny on the PS4 and maybe updating some apps on the iDevices, goes a lot smoother using this router than with my previous single antenna router. Usually, whenever I'm gaming, I don't use anything else that would take up bandwidth on the router. Now, I can freely use other devices on my network without having any serious dive in speed for those devices. While I can't speak to how fast/slow my internet speed is on any given day, I can say that, since installing this router, I don't see any difference in streaming YouTube vids while playing PS4. Even with other people connecting to my wifi, there is a relatively constant supply of data for each device.
Overall, I'd say this is a great upgrade/addition to any home/business where lots of people will be connecting to the wifi. For home, your kids can stream Netflix/YouTube the same time you and the Mrs. are doing taxes online. Great little piece of tech and highly recommend.
What's great about it: Easy to setup, small footprint, consistent wifi signal

Good home theater expansion
on November 21, 2015
Posted by: LouRevue
from Washington, DC
Overall this is a nice little addition to expand your home theater setup. For anyone looking to give their TV a little extra sound, this is a great little setup. While not 5.1/7.1 surround sound, the sound quality out of these speakers is surprisingly good. As these are only stereo sound, they are still good sounding speakers. The 6.5" bass provides pretty good bass. While it can tend to be a little boomy at times, the overall sound is pretty good.
Setup is pretty simple and straight forward. Hook up a few RCA cables and power cords and you're pretty much done. This speaker system isn't nearly as elaborate as other mid/high end speaker systems so the install time is significantly shorter. With the benefit of bluetooth, you can also pair these speakers with any bluetooth enabled device. In addition to working with your TV, you can use these speakers to play music from your phone/tablet as well which is nice. I set mine up with an iPhone 6+ so I'm assuming it should work with any bluetooth enabled device.
Overall, this is a nice home theater set either for your home/office/dorm room. Being that it's relatively inexpensive compared to other models, I'd say this is a good buy for whatever your needs.

Perfect for me, maybe not for others
on November 14, 2015
Posted by: LouRevue
from Washington, DC
Overall I'm really liking the iPad Pro. Larger screen size makes it perfect for watching movies, streaming, games and more. Other than the internals, this is nothing more than a larger iPad Air 2 honestly. For me, I use it for entertainment purposes mostly. I'll do a bit of work on it however this is not a laptop replacement or everyday sort of tablet like others may use it. As such, it's perfect for me in that I can view movies and shows on a larger screen with a without issue.
For those that are casual users or looking for something more functional in their daily lives, this might not be it for you. With it considerably larger size, carrying this thing daily might be a bit cumbersome for some people. Personally, I think the iPad Air 2 has the best form factor so far in terms of everyday carry and portability.
While the pen and keyboard might be attractive to some, I don't really have a need for them but might prove very useful to other folks in the graphic design or arts area.
So, I love it however this increase in size definitely isn't going to be for everyone that's for sure.

PIece of junk. Typical Nyko garbage.

This thing is a piece of garbage. After about 2 weeks of use, the fans started going out and, eventually, stopped working. Had previous bad experiences with PS3/XBOX 360 fans from Nyko but figured they would've upped the quality on their products. Clearly I was wrong in this respect. Never going to buy another product from Nyko.

Good for the average photog
on May 17, 2013
Posted by: LouRevue
from Washington, DC
As far as point and shoots go, this is pretty much the most feature packed one out there. It runs Android OS on a camera, has data connectivity for directly uploading to FB/Twitter, huge touch screen display and lots of other features all in one unit. While, technically, a point and shoot, I'd probably classify this probably as a bridge camera; bit more robust than a point and shoot but not quite a DSLR.
The features can be quite cumbersome to learn since there are so many. If you use an Android phone then you should be pretty familiar with the layout of the home screens and such. In addition to its connectivity, there are lots of photo editing options you can perform on the camera prior to upload or after. Since it's connected, you can upload your pics directly to your FB account or whatever which some people would find very beneficial. For the social media hound, this would be a great little companion for trips/outings/get togethers.
For someone who's more advanced in photography, this camera would merely be a toy or tertiary camera. It's great for a night out with friends or a party, but not for taking great pictures. The image quality is so-so and performance in low light is comparable to that of a cell phone. For something that costs as much as an entry level DSLR, you'd expect some very good picture quality at the very least. To put this on par with other bridge cameras or point and shoots, it's probably somewhere in the middle. Not bad, not great.
What you're really paying for is, essentially, a glorified camera phone. It'll take decent enough pics for uploading to social media accounts but nowhere near the quality of even entry level DSLR's. Even my 5 year Canon point and shoot can take better quality photos than this. If you're a casual shooter that wants an all-in-one camera, this would probably fit the bill. For someone looking for a more advanced P&S, something like a Canon S100 would be way better and is cheaper than this thing.
Overall, it's a nice concept and since it's the first gen model, I;m sure future generations will correct issues with this one.

If you're a fan of Grand Theft Auto, this game should be a part of your game collection. As it's made by the same studio that makes GTA, no surprise, it's very similar to GTA in its gameplay. As with you GTA, in Red Dead, you can choose to follow the storyline or simply wander off and kill people at will. Instead of car jacking, you have jack stage coaches or horses so it's a tad different. Good selection of guns and overall very fun to play.
What's great about it: Good story and long gameplay
What's not so great: Somewhat repetitive at times.

Phone size:Large
I've had my Note 2 for the past week now and all I can say is WOW! I previously had an iPhone 4 and the iPhone 5 was pretty lacking in terms of features. I wasn't a big fan of the stretched screen and 5 row technology so I needed something new to satisfy my cell phone needs. This phone does that and so much more. The specs alone make this phone more powerful then any other out on the market right now. It's blazing fast and the JellyBean UI is crisp and smooth.The 4G speeds on this is just icing on the cake. All the features about this phone work flawlessly together. The S Pen takes a little getting used to if you've never used a stylus before but there are a ton of features you can do with the S Pen. If you're a bit put off by the sheer size of this phone then it's probably not for you. But, if you can get used to the larger screen, get this phone, You won't be sorry.

Overall5 out of 5
5 out of 5Excellent laptop for everyday use
By LouRevue
from Washington, DC
Having had the chance to use this laptop, I must say it’s quite an impressive model for almostn any use. With an abundance of features housed in a sleek, stylish body, it’s a solid laptop for anyone in the market for a new/replacement laptop.
Using a 7th gen i5 dual core processor, the laptop functions on par with just about any laptop in its price range. With 8GB of RAM (12GB max) and a 1TB hard drive, it offers plenty of speed and room for all your files and enough power/speed to perform almost any task.
As far as the aesthetics go, this is an impressive looking laptop with clean lines, brushed aluminum cover and beveled edges. It’s a very nice looking laptop no doubt and the design, overall, is quite appealing. It comes with a full size keyboard as well as backlit keys which is a nice touch. Only gripe with the keyboard are the arrow buttons as the Up/Down buttons are smaller due to keyboard layout. The power button is on the right side of the laptop which is a bit unique as well as a dedicated volume button. There are 2 USB 3.0 ports as well as 1 USB 2.0 port, HDMI, SD Card and USB-C port. There is no CD drive for anyone wondering. The laptop (closed) is only about ¾ inch tall however it’s a bit wider than most due to the full size keyboard.
Power/performance. Using a dual-core processor I was under the impression this would be relatively slow and have choppy performance when opening multiple programs. Being this is the latest gen processor from Intel, this is not the case. Opening 2-3 programs at once was done with relative ease and switching between them was pretty flawless. The 8GB RAM comes in quite handy here and even with a 5400 RPM HDD, this laptop was able to perform tasks with very good speed. Battery life is pretty good. Using it “normally” and leaving it on for about 5-6 hours, there was about 50% battery left. Also, one very noteworthy benefit to this laptop, it doesn’t get that hot when left on for long periods of time which is VERY nice.
The display is probably the most impressive feature on here. A full 1080p display is quite vibrant and displays bright and dark colors extremely well. Those wanting to watch Netflix/Hulu will have no issues with the display. In addition to visuals, the sound from this laptop is equally impressive. For watching movies or just playing music, the speakers on this laptop deliver quite nicely without too much reverberation or distorted sound.
One of my initial thoughts of this being a 2-in-1 was that the tablet was an afterthought/gimmick. Having used previous 2-in-1 laptops, I was expecting the tablet functionality to be quite lackluster. Again, this was not the case. In this unit, you have, both, a well built laptop as well as tablet on-the-go device. Once in tablet mode, the screen orients itself to that of a normal tablet using Windows Tiles. Touch sensitivity is surprisingly smooth and using paint programs worked well without any lag or drops in sensitivity. Using the tablet form works really well when you want to sit back and watch videos or movies. Very nice.
A couple concerns with this laptop were;
The hard drive. While it’s a large 1TB drive, I would’ve expected something, at least, in the 7200 RPM range. Being fast enough for normal business related tasks, anyone wanting to use this laptop for video editing or other processor intensive jobs might find it to be a bit slow. This can easily be remedied by replacing the HD for a faster spindle drive or a SSD. However it would’ve been nice to have a tad faster hard drive here.
The keyboard, for me, took a bit getting used to since I have previously used standard laptop keyboards without the number pad. This is a personal preference so nothing against the design. Just noting that those of you used to that type of laptop keyboard, there will be a bit of learning curve involved however I think the addition of the number pad is great thing and should be standard on all laptops.
While the brushed aluminum case is aesthetically appealing, I’m a little concerned about it getting scratched/dinged from normal use or if when you’re changing it to be used as a tablet. This is the case with some laptops that use this metal casing so just something to be aware of.

Overall, this is an impressive laptop, reasonably priced with enough up-to-date technology that will last you for several years to come. Being that it’s a 2-in-1, it’s an added bonus which allows you to use this device in ways you should be able to do and with relative ease.There is some bloatware included (this should be no surprise) so make sure to uninstall/delete the stuff you don’t need. Aside from a somewhat slow hard drive, the other features on this laptop more than make up for it. Very nice buy for a new work laptop or student.

Can an owner of the original non active 65t comment on the fit and stability difference with the active version? Curious if that and the extra IP rating is worth a look, or negligible.
I own both the active and regular 65T's and I don't see any noticeable difference between them. Aside from the IP rating, there's really not much difference. Both fit exactly the same and fit pretty snugly in the ear.

Brighten your day and night with this Philips Being Hue ceiling light. The dimming function lets you set an ambience for different moods, and it works with the Philips Hue dimmer switch and mobile app for versatile control. The ZigBee technology of this 32W Philips Being Hue ceiling lamp provides smooth, efficient interoperability with multiple Hue lighting units.
Can this light be controlled by a existing wired wall switch? I plan to replace the light that is already there with this one, but I would prefer to use the wired switch.
Yes you can...that's what I did. One thing to note is that the light won't come on immediately like your current light fixture does. There's a second or two delay after you flip the switch. I'm planning on replacing the switch with a dimmer switch so maybe that will correct the delay.

can i use the samsung note 2 in africa right after buying.
Only if you have the international unlocked version (the N7100 model) All other models will be tied to a carrier. You can still use those phones in Africa however you'll get hammered with roaming charges.

Does Samsung upgrade its android smartphone OS as soon as a new one is released? (4.1 Jelly Bean to the soon to be released 5.0 Key Lime Pie).
No. Samsung has its own UI built in (TouchWiz) so whenever a new OS comes out, Samsung won't release the update until they've adjusted their TouchWiz to work with the new OS. Judging from previous releases, new updates are generally released 4-6 months after a new OS has been released.
