Premium intelligent feature rich toothbrush
on May 28, 2021
Posted by: Prat
from Chandler, AZ
This is a high end electric toothbrush with advanced features. The handle has a sleek solid build and feels premium. It comes with one brush head, a charging base, and a compact leather travel case. The brush can be charged from the case using the USB-C cable, which comes handy during travel. Also, with USB-C, there is one less cable to carry. Make sure to charge the toothbrush fully before your first use. The A3 brush head that comes with this is an all-in-one brush head and definitely feels better compared to other compatible ones. You can still use any compatible brush head, given the A3 is on the expensive end. I wish they had included more than 1 brush head with this unit.
The toothbrush comes with SenseIQ technology. You need to download Philips Sonicare app to make best use of these features. The brush communicates with the app on how much pressure you are applying, and adjusts the intensity in real time based on your brushing style. The app also provides personalized guidance on your brushing process by dividing your mouth into 6 zones and how to brush in each zone. You need to have the app open when brushing for this progress tracking and personalized recommendation. The app also lets you choose from 5 different cleaning modes. The toothbrush comes with 3 intensity settings that can be changed by pressing the intensity lights under the power button.
Overall, if you are looking to upgrade your electric toothbrush, consider this intelligent toothbrush with rich features for next level brushing.

Great budget all-in-one printer for home needs
on April 30, 2021
Posted by: Prat
from Chandler, AZ
This HP Envy 6455e is a compact all-in-one home printer that can print, scan, copy. Setup is seamless and pretty easy, but you do need to use the HP Smart app as there is no LCD screen on the printer. When you are setting this printer, you would need to activate HP+ (more on this below) for additional features. The printer comes with auto document feeder for fast scanning and copying as well as flatbed scanner. The paper tray can hold up to 100 sheets that also supports two-sided printing. The printer comes with two cartridges, one black and one tricolor. There is a smart control panel that will light up when needed like when you are connected to Wi-Fi or when the flatbed is open or when you are copying or scanning, etc.
HP+ gives you 2 years of warranty, 6 months of genuine HP ink cartridges via HP Instant Ink, and 2 years of additional features on the HP Smart app like sending mobile faxes, smart editing, scanning, and printing from anywhere. The ink subscription starts as low as 99¢ and you can choose from several plans based on your printing needs and HP will ship you the new ink cartridges. With the HP+, you need to have your printer always connected to internet, only use original HP int cartridges, and need a credit card when enrolling. But you have the option to cancel it anytime. Overall, I recommend this if you are looking for a budget printer for all home printing needs.

Best portable speaker from Sonos
on April 23, 2021
Posted by: Prat
from Chandler, AZ
Sonos Roam is the best affordable compact speaker in the Sonos lineup. It is portable, slim yet feels rugged and designed with awesome features which is very easy to use. It is rated IP67, which is waterproof and dust resistant. It is also drop resistant, which is nice to have. The speaker comes with USB C cable for charging. There is no wall adapter included though. The battery lasts up to 10 hours of playback time. The speaker also supports wireless charging with any Qi charger. It can be used horizontally or vertically when listening. It was a breeze and seamless to link Roam with the existing Sonos system. You can also pair with another Roam speaker for stereo play.
The speaker supports streamimg music via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. The best part about this feature is that the speaker will connect to your device if you lose WiFi connection. The physical buttons on Roam provides playback control options, turn off the microphone, and pair Bluetooth devices. The microphone helps with Trueplay feature where Roam optimizes the sound no matter the surrounding. It supports AirPlay 2 as well as voice control with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. Download the Sonos app to control the speaker and stream various music services directly on to Roam. A new feature I like is the Sound Swap which lets you switch the audio to the nearest speaker and vice versa. Overall, this is an amazing portable speaker from Sonos that provides the bang for the buck with loaded features.

The Roomba 600 series robot vacuum is a great way to begin cleaning your home smarter. It learns your cleaning habits and then offers up custom cleaning schedules—taking on daily dirt, dust, and debris from carpets and hard floors. It even has an edge-sweeping brush to get into corners and along edges. Google Assistant and Alexa compatibility let you start a cleaning session with just your voice, or simply use the iRobot Home App. When your area’s pollen count is high or during pet shedding season, the Roomba 600 series robot vacuum can even suggest extra cleanings —to help keep your floors clean every day of the year. *(Alexa and all related logos are trademarks of Amazon.com or its affiliates.

Affordable Roomba with great features
on April 2, 2021
Posted by: Prat
from Chandler, AZ
This is iRobot's new entry level robot vacuum, Roomba 694. It is powerful, has sleek design, and feels premium without being heavy. It comes with the home base charging station and an additional filter. As with all iRobot vacuums, this Roomba is Wi-Fi enabled and you need to download the iRobot HOME app to personalize your cleaning preferences and control the Roomba.
It features 3 stage cleaning system that keeps your carpet and hardwood floors clean. The edge-sweeping brush grabs the dirt from edges, corners, and tight spaces. It comes with advanced sensors that makes this vacuum smarter. The dirt detect sensors lets the robot know of areas that need to be cleaned more thoroughly. The navigation sensors guides the robot to navigate under furnitures and around any obstacles while the Cliff Detect sensors prevents it from falling down the stairs.
The robot's cleaning head automatically detects the floor type and adjusts the brush height and power accordingly. You can control the robot using Alexa or Google voice commands, although I wish iRobot included Siri as an option too. The vacuum runs for around 90 mins and it will automatically return to the docking station for charging. Once it is fully charged, it will get back to the spot where it stopped cleaning. Overall, consider this entry level robot vacuum cleaner with awesome features for a thorough home cleaning.

Impressive full-size vacuum cleaner from Dyson
on March 23, 2021
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
This Dyson Outsize is the bigger and upgraded version of the regular Dyson cordless vacuum cleaner. It is huge compared to its siblings because of the full-size bin and the full-size cleaner head. This is perfect for large homes. The vacuum comes with two battery packs, a soft brush, combination tool, a crevice tool, dirt brush, a hair tool, and the docking station to wall mount and charge the unit. The vacuum cleaner was quick and easy to setup and use.
First things first, make sure to charge the battery fully before you use. It takes around 4-5 hours to fully charge the battery. You can charge both batteries at the same time, using the additional charger that came with the unit. The LCD screen comes in handy to check on the battery charging status. It also displays the current mode of use and the remaining run time. I also liked the fact that it will display when it is time to change the filter or clear any blockage, which I am yet to encounter.
The Dyson motor is quite powerful and provides a very good suction power for all the cleaning need. You can use the vacuum in three modes: Eco, Auto, and Boost. Eco mode provides you with the longest runtime of 60 minutes and the suction in this mode is still powerful for my cleaning. Boost mode provides up to 5 minutes of runtime, for a very high intense cleaning. I barely used the Boost mode and don't think you would need it often. The Auto mode is the best of both worlds. It provides up to 40 minutes of usage and intelligently senses the floor type and adjusts the power automatically. Dyson terms it as Dynamic Load Sensor technology.
The new Dyson hair tool is supposedly designed to be anti-tangle for removing pet hair from tight spaces and other areas. I am yet to fully test this as I do not have any pets. The advanced filtration on this vacuum expels air that is exceptionally clean. Cleaning the vacuum is as easy as using it. Once you remove the attached tool, the bin ejection system empties out the bin directly into garbage easily without any mess.
Overall, I recommend this if you are looking for a single vacuum cleaner for all your cleaning needs of a large house with different floor types.

Portable Premium Laptop with Power
on March 7, 2021
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
This is Dell's newest model of its XPS laptops with the latest Intel 11th Gen processor. This is a premium 2-in-1 laptop and definitely the best Ultrabook in the market right now. The design is sleek with awesome features and amazing performance. This can be used in multiple modes like the tent mode or tablet mode. The laptop is lightweight and compact with InfinityEdge display. This touch screen comes with Gorilla Glass 6 for scratch protection.
The 11th Gen Core i7 processor comes with the powerful integrated Intel Iris Xe for GPU. The 8GB RAM can easily handle multitasking of browsing, video conferencing, listening to music, everyday computing, etc. But if you want to do heavy game or video editing, then I would recommend getting the higher RAM model. Also, the included RAM cannot be upgraded, as they are soldered to the board.
The included 256GB SSD onboard storage is fairly decent and if you have cloud storage, then it is a non-issue. Also, the SSD is upgradable if you want to add more storage. The laptop does come with MicroSD card slot, that you can use as storage expansion as well.
As for the ports on this laptop, you get two Thunderbolt 4 USB-C ports, a 3.5mm headphone port and the MicroSD card reader. There is no USB A port, but Dell does provide a USB C to USB A adapter that you can use. It might be better to invest in a USB C hub so you can connect other cables and devices including HDMI, Mouse, etc. The laptop does come with latest Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5 wireless connectivity options.
The backlit keyboard is superb and extremely comfortable for typing. The touchpad is smooth and uses Microsoft Precision drivers for responsive tracking. The power button integrates a fingerprint reader for easy login. It also supports Windows Hello along with the built-in infrared camera.
The laptop is charged using the USB C connection. I like this because I will have to carry one less charger and use the existing USB C charger and cable. The laptop comes with a 52-watt-hour batter and it did last good 9-10 hours with normal use. Dell does provide multiple power settings that you can tweak for your optimal use. The audio quality from the laptop speakers is pretty good. It is loud and clear. You can use the Waves MaxxAudio software to tweak the sound settings and quality.
This is the best Windows Ultrabook that should be at the top of your list if you are looking for a portable premium laptop with power.

versatile powerful blender
on March 7, 2021
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
This is a full size unique blender from Ninja. It features 10 speed manual mode and 6 preset 'Auto-iQ' mode. The build quality is pretty good and quite bulky. Given the base and the jar is made of plastic, the blender might not feel like a premium unit. It is very easy to use and clean. The blender comes with one large pitcher, two blades and a cleaning brush. The 1400 peak-watt motor is powerful enough for multi-purpose use with all kinds of ingredients. It makes amazing smoothies, shakes, crushed ice, and batters. I was very happy with how they turned out using the preset modes. My next experiments with this blender is to make nut butter, and cookie dough and see how it turns out.
The blender base has intuitive and simple controls. It comes with a small LCD display, 4 buttons to control power and other modes, and a dial to select the preset modes or to manually adjust the blending speed. This blender can't be used for hot blending. The other thing I am not a fan of is that you can only use the manual mode blending for 60 seconds at a time. After that the blender shuts off. I would have liked to have an option for longer duration. The blades are very sharp and you should be very careful while handling and cleaning them. It is dishwasher safe too. For the size, I would say the blender is quieter and not as loud. Overall, this is a versatile blender from Ninja that can be used for various uses at a very reasonable price compared to other brands.

Feature rich ANC earbuds
on February 10, 2021
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
I have had Skullcandy wired headphones that were my go-to and I really liked them. This is a feature rich headphone at this price point, and I am impressed with the quality of these headphones. I really like the stem design. You can touch/press the step part of the earbuds to control the features. With the right silicone ear gel size, the fit is extremely comfortable and really helps with the ANC, which is awesome. I can barely hear any outside noise. Overall sound quality is also great.
I highly recommend you download the Skullcandy app which will help in customizing your personal sound. The charging case comes with USB C port as well as the option to charge wirelessly. The battery life is pretty decent. You do get almost double usage time with the ANC Off option. The in-built Tile feature is really amazing. You can use the Tile app to activate the earbuds and use it to find in case you have misplaced them. Overall, this is a great earbuds from Skullcandy with packed features and I recommend giving it a try.

Powerful and effective purifier for clean air
on January 14, 2021
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
Blueair 480i is my first air purifier. It is quite big and heavy and takes up plenty of room space. The setup was a breeze. The purifier can be controlled by the touch sensitive buttons. They are easy to see and use. The unit can be connected to Wi-Fi. You can download the app and use it to track the air quality, schedule the run times, or even control the purifier. If you use Alexa, you will be able to use voice commands to control fan.
The fan at low and medium speeds is pretty quiet and you won't even notice it. At high speed, it can get a bit louder. This is recommended for medium size rooms (434 Sq. Ft.). I used it in my living room and it did cover it pretty good. The filter operates every 12 minutes to purify the air. The unit comes with one DualProtection filter which is supposed to last 6 months. The filters can get expensive, but Blueair provides 15% off replacement filters with subscription. Overall, it is a great purifier that removes odors and germs and would definitely recommend.

Transforms your Surface Pro into a laptop
on December 21, 2020
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
The Brydge keyboard is a must have accessory for your Surface Pro. This literally converts the Surface Pro into a legitimate laptop. I really like the Type Cover that I got with my Surface Pro, but at times (like on an airplane with small trays) I prefer the need for proper base support, this definitely transforms the Surface Pro into a versatile laptop. I have used the previous version of this keyboard, but this one is for sure an upgrade. It is sturdy, compatible with Surface Pro 4, 5, 6, and 7 and I like the fact that it charges via USB C, which is supposed to last up to 6 months of battery charge.
The keyboard has a bigger precision touchpad compared to the previous model and supports multi-touch gestures, which are fully customizable. The backlit keyboard comes with 3 levels of brightness option. It connects to the Surface Pro via Bluetooth 5.0. The hinges hold the Surface Pro very well and provide 0-180 degrees of viewing. Overall, this is a solid accessory for your Surface Pro and would recommend this as a perfect pair.

can I add ram to a surface pro 4 that only has 4gigs

You cannot add any RAM to the Surface pro 4. You have to remove the back casing in order to do so and by doing that, you will be voiding the warranty. If you are looking for an everyday device with not so heavy applications, 4GB is sufficient. If you planning to run heavy applications/games, then I would recommend the 8GB model.
