The Ultimate Listening experience!
on April 20, 2024
Posted by: Ponskippa
I've been using these Sony ULT WEAR headphones for the past week and although I was initially put off by the feel and sound of these headphones, they've since grown on me after figuring out all the little details / things you can do when paired with the Sony Headphones app. I am going to say that it is an absolute must download so that you can fully experience and enjoy these headphones. Sony provides a QR code on the manual to find the app, but you can also search for it in the iOS and Android stores.
Build Quality - These headphones are really lightweight for their size. The plastics used have this non textured / smooth feel that I'm not really used to headphones having. So they kind of tricked my brain into thinking they feel cheap. But after a week of use, I can honestly say that these headphones are quite touch and the build material is excellent. The headband and earcups are strong and do not creak when you flex them to put them on your head or when moving a cup out of the way to hear something or someone. Which while Im on that subject, these headphones have a cool feature where all you have to do is place your hand over the right ear cup and it will automatically lower the volume of your music or media very low so that you can hear your surroundings.
The headphones have three buttons. Power on /off , ANC/Ambient which toggles noise canceling on and off. and ULT. The ULT button toggles through 3 different presets which to my ears boost bass from almost flat to thump thump on your ears. There is also a 3.5mm headphone jack for connecting the included wire to your devices. I am happy to report that with the included aux cable, you do not have to turn on the headphones for them to work with the cable. So they work passively! but you will not get any of the software features while using them with this method.

So they work passively! but you will not get any of the software features while using them with this method.
Sound Quality - My first thoughts out of the box when I paired them to my phone and started listening to music were something along the lines of Yuuck. They sounded quite muddy and the bass / mids drowned out everything else. But like I said earlier.. downloading the Sony headphones app is an absolute must to use these headphones. It will allow you to customize the EQ to your liking, and it does it quite easily. It will let you tap through various settings and tune it to what you like. It was honestly the coolest and most intuitive equalizer tuning I've experience so far. After setting up the EQ and presets to my preferences , these headphones sound soooo much better and they've grown on me for the past week. Are they the best headphones I've ever heard? No. but the ability to easily and quickly tweak the EQ makes them fun and a joy to use. It's very hard to find 1 pair of headphones that will be perfect for every music genre, movie, podcast listening experience. So being able to tune my listening experience on the fly makes these quite enjoyable. They are very comfortable for extended use, lightweight, and battery life is amazing! Even after a week of casual use, the headphones still show 85% battery remaining.
So would I recommend these headphones? I'm going to say Yes. But only if you're willing to download that app and set them up properly. If you don't want to bother with all of that, then perhaps look at something else.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great for calls and chats, not so much for music.
on April 4, 2024
Posted by: Ponskippa
So I’ve been using this headset specifically for voice communication during my online gaming sessions with friends on my PC and PlayStation. They’re not really marketed for that, but I figured it would be great for voice chat and I was right. My friends all said my voice sounded loud and crisp through the microphone and their voices all sound nice and clear with these ear cups. I had no trouble listening to my buddies talk while we gamed. I played for about 3 hours straight with my buddy the other night and my ears never got fatigued because of the earcups. I thought they were going to be too small / snug but they’re not. They don’t have any sort of noise canceling so I can still hear my tv and myself while talking, something I appreciate because I don’t end up yelling into the microphone. Build quality of this headset isn’t all that great. I mean.. they feel a little cheap. They feel like they might break after using them for some time. But that being said, the material is very lightweight, so they aren’t heavy on your head. The pads on the earcups are small but comfortable. The buttons are in a weird spot but you don’t really have to use them since your phone or device can control the volume. The power button sits in an awkward position, right below the mic boom, my thumbs are large so pressing it to turn them on and off can be a little cumbersome. I have to swivel the mic to the on position to turn them on and off. The microphone will mute when you swivel the boom to the up position. A simple function that I highly appreciate. Now, I am rating these 4 stars because they work and sound great for voice chats and phone calls. But that’s it. They are quite bad for music and movies, so don’t even bother. I mean you could use them if you want, but they sound flat, and tinny. Would I recommend these? Ummm.. depends on what you want to use them for. If all you want is a headset for phone calls and voice chatting then sure. Voices sound great with this headset. If you want them for media consumption or music listening, I would not recommend these. They aren’t the greatest but they are perfectly usable.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Amazing laptop! My new everyday companion
on March 15, 2024
Posted by: Ponskippa
I feel like every time I get a brand new gaming laptop I say.. this is the best laptop ever! And this new Asus G16 definitely deserves that title. I’ve been using it everyday for a week as my main gaming setup, and I love it so much that I think it might become my main rig for work and play. The OLED screen is beautiful. Videos, Photos, Games all look amazing on this screen. If you’re looking for the best screen on a laptop, I have to say that this machine should be on your shortlist but The screen brightness is only 450 nits, its been plenty bright for me for most situations. I’m not the type to sit outside with a laptop, but if you plan on getting work or gaming done outside at a cafe or something, you might be disappointed with this screen. But 450nits is typical for an OLED screen, it’s just a trade off you have to compromise on. I think it’s to prevent burn in / damage. Speakers on this laptop are also very good! I’ll say that these are the second best speakers I’ve heard on a laptop. They get loud but have a full sound. Bass, and mids are rich and trebles are clean and crisp. I will happily use the built in speakers for music listening and movie watching and gaming. The fans do kick on quite loud while gaming so it’s nice to have a loud set of speakers in the machine to drown out the fans. I haven’t had any issues with overheating yet, the fans and cooling system on this machine keep the laptop running great and I’m pushing graphics to the highest in most of the games I’ve tested. Alan Wake 2 pretty much runs at full max settings. Ray tracing for some reason causes bad frame drops on that game but to my eyes it looks amazing without the setting on. Every game I own looks and plays amazing on this laptop. My short list of current games are Alan Wake 2, Fortnite, Rocket League, Helldivers 2 and Rise of the Tomb Raider. (An oldy, but I wanted to relive it on this beautiful OLED screen.) I can’t wait to try other games now and in the future. I am confident that this machine will run anything coming in the next 5 years. The RTX 4080, paired with the intel i9 and 32GB of ram is a powerful combination that will serve you well for years. This machine has an additional m.2 slot for expanding your storage which I immediately did. I installed a 2TB ssd and now I have 3 TB total for game storage. So cool! Hardware wise, this laptop is very premium. It’s mostly aluminum, the only thing that feels plastic is the bottom cover. You’ll need a T6 security driver to open it but those are easy to find. I could go on all day about this laptop, but if your here and your on the fence. I’m gonna say go ahead and buy it, I highly recommend it. This laptop is powerful enough to play just about every game available, and is also great for work if you’re a photo and video editor / content creator. And when you’re not working or gaming on this machine, you’ll love it for just kicking back on the couch or bed and watching a movie or video.

Easiest/Cleanest way to brew cold or hot coffee
on March 14, 2024
Posted by: Ponskippa
I’ve been using this coffee machine every morning for the past week or so to make myself a cup of ice coffee before I leave for work. It’s so convenient and easy to use. I really like that it has the option to make a hot brew also. I’ve been on a cold coffee binge for a while so it’s what I mainly use it for. It includes a permanent filter which I’ve been using to make my coffee. I drop in 2 scoops of my coffee grounds of choice, and then put my 20 oz travel mug in the machine with a cup full of ice to make my coffee. Iced coffee takes about a minute to brew, the cold brew option takes about 10 minutes or so to make. The iced coffee comes out so flavorful that even my gf likes it. She doesn’t really care for coffee but she’s really liked the way this machine makes my coffee. It’s also very easy to clean up. I’m not sure what you call the part, but the coffee filter sits inside of a plastic container that you can pull out when it’s time to clean it and everything stays put inside of that. So my counter or machine never get dirty with coffee or coffee grounds. The machine has various brew settings, it can brew 1 8oz cup of you want or a whole full carafe that comes included. As a coffee lover, this brewer will save me a bunch of time and money. If you love coffee, I highly recommend this machine.

Speedy and Thrifty
on February 19, 2024
Posted by: Ponskippa
Sandisk has been my go to for SD cards for most of my devices. I’ve never had one fail, so I trust the name and brand. So when I came across this Sandisk NVME SSD, I just had to have it. I’ve only had it installed on my laptop for about a week now but so far, everything is great. I needed to upgrade my storage space from 512 because that just isn’t enough. This 1TB SSD is the Goldilocks size for most users. Just enough space for most day to day tasks and gaming if that’s what you plan on doing with your desktop or laptop. I use my Asus G14 for gaming and photo edifing and this SanDisk SSD definitely performs. This SSD feels a tad quicker than the stock ssd that came with my laptop. My Os boots up almost instantly, my videos load up a bit faster than before and when edit photos In Lightroom, everything just loads and works quick and seamlessly. If you don’t have an SSD in your computer yet, definitely pick this up. It will breathe new life into your computer. Time will tell how long this will serve me for, but given SanDisks reliability and performance. I am confident that it will keep my laptop running for the rest of its lifetime. Would I recommend this SSD? Yes! It’s a great value, you can’t go wrong with this drive. It’s fast enough for every casual user and most professional / gamer uses.

Compact and fast reliable printer
on February 10, 2024
Posted by: Ponskippa
I was pleasantly surprised at how small this HP laser jet printer is. I initially wondered if it was just a regular old ink cartridge printer. Anywho, there is a couple of sacrifices when comparing this to a larger traditional laser printer. 1.) the cartridge claims that it will yield 950 prints before it needs to be swapped out. That is a lot of prints! But far less than you’ll get with a larger printer. That being said, keep it in mind if you plan on using this for a small business. I would say that this printer is better suited for a home, or for a student. The second sacrifice you make with this printer is that there is no place to store a large amount of paper. You kinda just gotta feed it a small stack of paper as you print. But like I said, it is perfect for a general home use printer. Aside from those two things, this printer is pretty awesome. It connects via WiFi or Ethernet. Setup was quick and easy with the free HP app. Once connected to your home internet, you can print from any device you have connect to your WiFi network via AirPrint / Google Cloud printing. It takes a few seconds for your print job to be transferred but once it does, the pages are printed almost instantly. The printer also has a built in scanner for copying pages. Very convenient! You can choose to log in and subscribe to HP’s services for ink refills with this printer but it isn’t necessary. I like to be in control of my finances, so I opt out and just buy ink when I deem it necessary. Would I recommend this printer? Yes, but keep the limitations i stated earlier in mind. Also, this printer only prints in black and white. It’s a very nice printer though, and quite affordable. It’s small size makes it great for use in any home.

Heat / Cold Therapy in a Massage Gun! awesome!
on January 4, 2024
Posted by: Ponskippa
I'll start by saying that I'm no expert in muscle / tissue recovery and by no means a massage therapist. But as a regular Joe that works a physically demanding job, I can say that this massage gun is pretty good and has helped a bit with the common aches and pains I come home with. I don't know what kind of sorcery Sharper Image is doing with this massage gun, but the "hot and cold" attachment is very cool. You can toggle heat or cold or nothing at all with the massage gun. The attachment will get pretty warm fast and will provide a nice warm touch to your aching muscles. It gets cold right away too, not ice cold.. but cold enough! I didn't think it would cool down so fast after using the heat setting but it does. I haven't seen any other massage gun do this, it might be the first of its kind. It is a very cool feature! The cold setting is great for reducing swelling and inflammation for recent injuries, and the heat is great for relaxing muscles. My one and only complaint about the massager so far is that this function does not work with any of the other attachments. The massage gun is smart enough to know not to turn the heat or cold on with the other included attachments. Battery life on the massage gun is excellent, I've yet to recharge it after a week of use. It charges conveniently with USB C. I found that my fast charging USB C cable works great with it and will charge it up quite quickly. There is 4 attachments included and a nice case for stowing everything. I lose all my attachments to my last massage gun, so I love that this one comes with a case. No this massage gun will not replace a massage therapist, but it is very nice for use in between your massage sessions. The older I get, the more I appreciate this type of technology. I feel like they help in recovery and physical therapy. I'm trying to do what I can to keep my body strong and able and having heat and cold therapy in a massage gun is a blessing. If you are looking to buy a massage gun, I can whole heartedly recommend this one. This is my second massage gun, and so far it's been great. I really like it, and I think you will to.

Impressive sound quality, with helpful Ai assist
on December 21, 2023
Posted by: Ponskippa
I’ll start by mentioning that initially I was a little let down by the fact that this speaker isn't “portable”. Meaning it doesn’t have a built in battery, and it has to stay plugged into an outlet to operate. If you’re looking for a portable speaker then this won’t be for you. That is the only negative thing I have to say about this speaker. It’s certainly not a dealbreaker, i set it up and played some music while my girlfriend and I do our morning exercises. We both had the same reaction when the music started. We both grinned and said wow! We were both really surprised at the sound coming out of this speaker. Even though the default EQ settings are “flat” the bass bumps pretty loud. It doesn’t completely drown out the mids and treble though. Our music still sounded great. Even when not facing the speaker from the other side of the living room, I could still kind of feel the bass. The speaker definitely can fill a large living room with sound and will make a great party speaker. I’m kind of a “speaker head” lol, I love listening to music so I own a few speakers and headphones and this speaker has genuinely blown my mind. It is going to be my main speaker for home music and movie watching for the foreseeable future. The sound quality alone justify’s the purchase of this speaker. I love its retro yet modern design. I’m an 80s baby, so it definitely reminds me of the speakers my uncles owned growing up. It has 3 large dials up top that kind of remind me of vinyl discs. They light up when you turn them. One controls volume and acts as a play / pause button and the other two control treble and bass. There is no mid EQ control on the speaker itself but you can fiddle with the EQ further within the JBL app. There is a usb C port in the back along with an Ethernet port and Aux audio port. I plan on connecting my projector to the Aux port to use it as a speaker for my projector. It is that good. I am confident that it will be amazing for watching movies as well. The speaker also has Google assistant and Alexa if you prefer to use that. Google is my Ai of choice, simply because I’m already invested in the eco system, but it is great for asking Google for traffic and weather updates, as well as to control your smart home devices. It’s the typical Google assistant we all know. Think of it as a Google home speaker on steroids. You can mute the microphone whenever you don’t want the speaker to be listening to you (for peace of mind). The speaker has Bluetooth for audio as well as WiFi for Airplay and Google assistant/ chromecas. I suggest you connect it to your WiFi so that you can share the speaker with anyone on your WiFi network and multiple device connections. The included JBL ONE app will update the firmware of the speaker, control music and EQ and you can even program it to play music at a scheduled time. Would I recommend this speaker? I’m going to give it a big thumbs up! I haven’t owned or tried really high end / expensive audio equipment but out of the speakers I’ve owned in my 40 years on this planet, I’m going to say it definitely deserves a spot in my top 5 list. I know, it’s a bold statement. But to my ears, this speaker is very impressive for its size.

The Crucial X9 Pro for Mac is such an outstanding value. It is very compact, I feel like there is probably a 2230 M.2 drive inside of the enclosure because it is so small. It feels quite rugged and premium. It comes with a USB C cable and is formatted to work with Mac and iPad / iOS devices out of the box. It has a very nice design, it is a perfect match for your Mac or iPads. Crucial claims that this drive has 1050 MB/s read and write speeds. It is not the fastest available but it is definitely very quick. I use it to edit large video files that I record with my mirrorless camera. I also use it to store movies for watching on my MacBook or iPad, and for storing games and apps for my MacBook Pro. in my week of use, it has been very reliable and I have not encountered any hiccups what so ever. Apps load just as quick as my MacBook Pros drive. I love that I can also connect it to my iPad mini and continue my work flow and or movie that I was watching on my computer. It will work with windows but you will have to reformat it before you can write files onto it. My Samsung galaxy tablet recognized the drive without a hitch and I was able to stream my media from this drive on my android tablet. If you are looking for a compact external SSD that can store a ton of files and media quick and reliably, I highly recommend this one.

the most Fun I've had with a projector
on November 12, 2023
Posted by: Ponskippa
I'm a bit of a projector junkie, I tend to recommend projectors to people when they say they want a BIG tv. I always say.. if you have the wall space for it, get a projector! That being said, I've gathered a small collection of projectors in the past couple of years and although the Samsung Freestyle ( 2nd Gen ) is not the best projector on the market and it definitely will not replace a big screen 4k TV, I think it brings some very cool technology to the market. It has auto keystone, autofocus that is quite accurate and quick to set up. The built in swivel stand is genius. It makes it super easy to bring along with you anywhere. The stand is sturdy and can be set up on just about any surface. You don't need to bring many additional accessories with you because this has built in smart software that will allow you to stream just about any movie , tv show and even games! It also has a micro HDMI port for connecting a console or media player. The built in speaker is quite loud and has a nice full sound. Music, movies, video games all sound very good with the built in speaker. I believe it is 5 watts, it sounds a bit louder to my ears. The specs say the lamp is 230 ANSI Lumens. It is definitely not the brightest projector out there, it shines brightest in a dimly lit or completely dark room. It isn't completely unusable in a well lit or daylight filled room but you will lose a lot of contrast and saturation. You can still see the screen but it will look dim and washed out.
When in an appropriate setting, contrast is great and colors are vibrant. Considering its small form factor, I would say that image quality over all is excellent.
My biggest complaint would have to be that the software can be a little sluggish from time to time. It tends to be just a little slow when navigating around apps. Especially if you try to toggle back and forth between streaming apps, or menus. Such as when switching from a media streaming app -> to the gaming hub. Speaking of the gaming hub! Samsung has made a dedicated section for us gamers. You can play Xbox Cloud,Amazon Luna, Geforce now and Anstream games with this projector. Between the 2 game streaming services, Amazon Luna provides a much better gaming experience on this projector. Microsoft has a lot of work to do on its xbox streaming service. I would not recommend you play that on this projector. ( It is not the projectors fault) The service itself has a lot of input lag and visual artifacts when streaming. Amazon Luna on the other hand works quite good on this projector. I was able to play some of my favorite games on here without much trouble. I can't measure the response times, but I would say it's on par with gaming on a TV. Owning an Amazon Luna controller is highly recommended and provides the best experience for cloud gaming. Geforce Now also provides a pleasant experience for cloud gaming, if you already have either one of these services, I think you will enjoy gaming on the go with this projector. Samsung TV Plus comes preinstalled and has a vast selection of channels to watch for free, Samsung also adds these cool wallpapers to light up on your walls for parties and get togethers. It adds a nice vibe to your place. Would I recommend this projector to a friend? Yes but with reservations. If you want a really cool, and portable projector that you can set up anywhere in the house or at a friends place. yes I highly recommend it. If you want the best experience for watching movies and gaming at home and plan on keeping it put in one place. I am going to say.. save your money and get something bigger, brighter and faster. But I have to give this projector a 5 star rating. It is so fun to use. I even used it to set up a halloween projection on our patio wall. Samsung has done a great job and implementing their software on here and you will have a big selection of apps to download. This projector can receive firmware upgrades, so I look forward to what else Samsung might push through for it.

Samsung has done a great job and implementing their software on here and you will have a big selection of apps to download. This projector can receive firmware upgrades, so I look forward to what else Samsung might push through for it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Blink video door bell does it detect you even if you don't press the door bell button? Or how it works to notify you? Would you receive alert notification if some one is at door just standing?
Yes, you can choose to have motion detection on and or just doorbell. They both work great. Motion detection is so good on it that it captured a video of my neighbors cat running by chasing a squirrel lol

i have a hard time with my airpods pro my ears are just so small and they always fall out. Will these work better? i just want something that won't fall out so much and use all-day
That’s hard to say, since Ive never had issues with AirPods or AirPods Pro falling out of my ear, but I can say that these are very comfortable. They come with three different sizes of rubber tips so you can find a fit that works for you. But I think the design of these are great and they shouldn’t fall out.
