Good wet/dry shaver for everyday use
on June 27, 2020
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
This is my first time trying an electric shaver. I generally use a trimmer, so wasn't sure how this will work. But honestly, this has done a great job that I might switch to this long term. This shaver is pretty comfomfy when holding and it is not bulky or heavy either. I charged it to 100% battery before first use, as always with any battery operated device. There is a LCD display that indicates your battery percentage. The shaver comes with a case for easy storage and travel. Since this is waterproof, you can use it in the shower as well, plus cleaning under a tap is handy. There is a sensor that changes the power based on the beard density where you are shaving. On the back side of the unit (if you are facing the display), there is a pop-up trimmer that comes in handy for sideburns and mustaches. The outer foil and the inner blades are replaceable. This is more like an everyday shaver. If you have grown out your beard, you might want to use a trimmer first before using this shaver and continue to use it everyday to get the clean shave look. Overall, a really good shaver and I would recommend it to anyone looking for everyday use.

Great party portable speaker
on June 17, 2020
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
Sony's SRS-XB33 is an amazing portable Bluetooth speaker. The speaker is well built, with excellent sound quality and does not feel heavy. The battery is supposed to last 24 hours, but I have used it intermittently everyday for almost a week without recharging. Similar to other SRS series of portable speakers, this one comes with line LED light that syncs with the music. You can also change the color of the light or completely turn it off. This speaker is IP67 rated, which means it is waterproof and dust resistant. Sony mentions that it is also shockproof and saltwater resistant, which are nice to have and not something I would want to try. By closing the cover for the connection at the back of the speaker, you can submerge or run this speaker under running water to clean. All the controls are housed on the top panel on a rubber strip.
Now to the best features part, one such thing is the easy pairing of the speaker using Bluetooth or NFC connection. Another feature I like is the ability to connect up to 100 wireless speakers and sync the music. The charging of the speaker is done via USB C cable, which is a nice change compared to traditional micro USB. It also comes with a USB A port that you can use to charge other devices, making this speaker a portable battery pack. The speaker can also be used for handsfree calling, although not everyone might use this feature all the time. Overall, it is a great update from Sony on their SRS line of portable speakers and I recommend it to anyone looking for a great quality portable speaker.

Compact yet powerful handheld massager
on May 13, 2020
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
I never owned any handheld massager nor used any Theragun devices before. My very first handheld massager from Theragun to relax those sore muscles and joints. The build quality and design is impressive and ergonomic, light weight and powerful. The Theragun Elite comes in a nice protective case, with 5 attachments and the wall charger. Make sure to download Therabody app and connect to the device. You can use the app to guide you with the massage to focus on your back, body, sleep, etc., adjust the speed (between 1750 - 2400 PPM), update the device, or set presets for the device.
I charged it completely before my first use. It took close to 2 hours to fully charge this and you get 2 hours of continuous usage time. The Elite is enabled for wireless charging, but it is not included in the package and you have to shell out extra to buy one. Coming to the noise part, it is not the quietest nor the loudest. It is a bit noisy if you are working on your neck/back area. You wouldn't notice it if you are watching TV or listening to music. The display on the device will tell you the speed the massager is running and the battery life.
Overall, a solid handheld massager for daily use from relieving body aches and sore muscles to theraputic sessions.

Quality soundbar with 4K support
on May 13, 2020
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
I have used so many Sony headphones and portable speakers, but never had a Sony soundbar. Unpacking and installing was easy. I connected it to my 55 inch TV via the HDMI port. There is only 1 HDMI in and 1 HDMI out. So if you have multiple devices, you might need a HDMI splitter or a hub. The design of the soundbar is pretty standard, a compact rectangular bar and a wireless subwoofer. This soundbar has left, right, and center speakers that upscales the audio close to a 7.1.2 channel sound system.
I was able to control the volume of the soundbar using my TV remote. This depends on the compatibility of the TV to support HDMI ARC connection. It has various sound modes like movie, music, voice, night mode, etc. that comes in handy depending on what you are watching/listening to. I was also able to connect my phone to stream music wirelessly. If you don't like the LED display on the soundbar, you can turn it off. With HDR10 and Dolby format support, 4K movies never sounded better with the 4K TV.
Overall, this is an impressive soundbar from Sony and I would recommend it to anyone looking to add a good sound system.

Amazing laser MFP for home office & small business
on April 10, 2020
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
I have owned so many inkjet printers yet never had a laser printer. Every time I thought of getting one, my initial thoughts were, toner is going to be expensive, or it might be too big for my home office since I am so used to the compact/portable printers. The this HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M283fdw came along and so far, I am liking it. Especially with the current work from home situation, I do not have access to my work printers and need something to get my job done.
The setup is pretty easy and quick. The printer itself is large and heavy for its size. You might need to make plenty of room if you are replacing any inkjet printers. But make sure you follow the included flyer for easy unpacking. This unit comes with 4 individual cartridges (Black, Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow). The printer cable (USB cable), phone cord, power cord are all included with this. There is a front USB port for direct access. The dual band Wi-Fi connectivity is an added bonus for all wireless printings.
A multifunction printer, this unit handles your everyday essential functions like print, copy, scan, and fax with ease, along with other additional features. You can print from your smartphone (AirPrint, Google Cloud Print) or download the HP Smart app to use the additional functionalities like scanning receipts, email documents, uploading to your cloud storage (OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.) or to adjust the settings (this can be done via the 2.7" color touchscreen too).
The quality of the prints are much better compared to my inkjet printers and faster too. The automatic document feeder is pretty good. You can stack upto 50 pages and this unit prints fast even with duplex printing. You can also use it to scan multiple pages at once, even though it is one-sided scanning.
Overall, this is a solid printer for all home office as well as small business needs with added functionalities. Given the high cost of the printer as well as the toners, it is economical in the long run and I highly recommend this for anyone looking to upgrade or try their hands on first laser printer.

Versatile, comfortable, amazing travel backpack
on March 7, 2020
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
A very comfortable backpack which can be expanded to a carry on size duffle bag. The bag is durable and water resistant. I usually travel with my work laptop and a personal tablet (Surface Pro) and this backpack fits them perfectly in the dedicated pocket. It comes with enough compartments to store everything needed for the trip. There is RFID storage and hidden pocket that comes in handy to carry cash, passport, etc. You can use the ventilated pockets to store shoes as well as keep the water out, if needed. The water bottle holders are magnetic and snap back when you are not using it. I was able to use it as a carry on for a 4 day trip and fit everything I need without needing an additional backpack that I usually carry. Another additional feature that I haven't tried yet, but might come in handy is the retractable key leash feature. The straps are sturdy and the bag comes with waist straps, that keeps the bag in place with added stability. It is also versatile that the straps can be tucked in to carry the backpack as a briefcase. Overall, a great travel backpack and definitely recommend for anyone who needs a bag that also encompass organization for tech products.

Great portable projector for compact usability
on January 6, 2020
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
This is a compact and portable projector, very handy and delivers Full HD quality. The picture quality is crisp and it can project to a max size upto 100". The size of this projector is comparable to the mini cable box and weighs less than 2 lbs, easily fits in a laptop bag. It comes with built-in speakers, but nothing fancy and too small to hear from a distance. I connected external speakers to the 3.5mm aux audio port and it was much better. This projector comes with built-in battery, which means you can use it without power cord. The specs say you can use it for upto 2 hours on battery, which I haven't tested completely to see the capacity. There is a small kick stand and a threaded tripod mount for easy portability. I will be testing the tripod option to see how well it can hold. You get the standard HDMI connection, but the best part is that it comes with USB-C port that I was able to connect my Surface Pro tablet as well as my phone and start projecting instantly, a much better way to show the photos and videos. Overall, it is a great projector that you can carry around for portable use and outdoor movie nights.

Solid protection with added features
on November 13, 2019
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
Heard about Tech 21 cases, but never tried one until now. This definitely looks to add solid protection to the phone. It has 10 ft drop protection. Clear case helps showcase your phone's color. It has self healing finish which is supposed to smooth any scratches, not that I want to try how it works. The case is very durable, not too slippery, and doesn't make the phone bulky. Overall, a good investment for a phone case.

Solid 2-in-1 with excellent features
on November 3, 2019
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
This is Dell's one of the latest Inspiron models. The build quality is pretty good and has a solid feel on the heavy side. This is a 2-in-1, which means you can use this laptop in different modes: tent, stand, laptop, or tablet mode. The setup was a breeze. The laptop comes with Intel's latest 10th Gen i7-10510U processor, powerful for a variety of users to get their work done. The display is a 15.6" touch screen with 4K resolution. The resolution is stunning on this and I really like the narrow border with less bezels.
The included 16GB RAM (max capacity as well) handles the tasks very smoothly. I had couple of browsers with few tabs open on each, listening to music, doing some light work, and didn't feel any lag and everything was loading very fast. It is also equipped with 512GB SSD + 32GB Intel Optane. The loading times are really fast. Not to forget, there is also a 2GB dedicated GDDR5 graphics card onboard which helps with photo/video editing software, some gaming, movies, etc.
There are plenty of ports on this sleek laptop. You get two USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports, one universal headset jack, 3-in-1 MicroSD card reader, one HDMI 2.0 port, and a USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type C (Thunderbolt 3) for power and extended display. It also has Intel WIFI 6 adapter (future proof) and Bluetooth 5.0 module.
The keyboard is backlit and Dell has managed to include the full numberpad. The trackpad is not exactly positioned by the center of the keyboard, so it might take few uses to get used to this placing. The power button is placed inline with the keyboard and has built-in fingerprint reader, which you can setup to use with Windows Hello. The included webcam is a standard 720p camera and doesn't support facial recognition for easy login. But it serves its purpose of video chats.
The included Dell Active Pen is similar to Surface Pen and it works seamlessly. I use it to take notes and some of the Windows Ink functionality. It is not rechargeable, and uses an AAAA battery, which does last long (from Surface Pen experience), depending on how heavily you use. The best part is that there is a storage on the laptop hinge where you can keep the pen secured.
The included speaker does a good job of stereo output. You can customize it using the included Dell audio tool. Since I mostly connect my headphones, I am not going to leave it as is in default mode. The battery (nonremovable) life is pretty good and has the Dell's version of quick charge. It lasts 5-7 hours, depending on the usage and the settings.
A solid laptop from Dell that is good for various users with wide spectrum of use cases. Do take a look at this one if you are in the market to buy/upgrade to a new computer.

Compact airfryer for simplistic use
on November 3, 2019
Posted by: Prat
from Chicago, IL, USA
Philips Air Fryer is an easy to use, simple unit. It uses little to no oil to fry food. This is done by heating up the air using proprietary technology (TurboStar). It is a decent size unit. It has two knobs, one to set the temperature and the other to set the timer (30 min max). Might not feel fancy with no digital or touch controls. But it does cook well. The best part is that I can use this to make fried food without worrying about oil spluttering all over my kitchen/stove area with traditional frying. I was able to make fries (default test action) and also make some personal pizzas using the naan bread. Next trials would be to make mozzarella cheese sticks and potato chips. You can also check out the included cookbook for any new recipes. Cleaning was a breeze, both the basket and the mesh didn't had much grease after using. The If you are thinking about getting an airfryer to switch to oil-less cooking, I would definitely recommend this one.

Make a smart solution to upgrade your home security to IndoorCam Mini. Never second-guess what you see in clear 2K resolution, and give yourself control with pan and tilt functions to monitor your home’s most vital areas. IndoorCam Mini features On-Device AI Human Detection, a technology that identifies humans in the frame and only sends you the notifications that matter.

Can this new Indoor Cam Mini connect to the Eufy HomeBase? I would like for the IndoorDam store data on the base for easy access and control.

No, it is not compatible with HomeBase.

The Soundcore by Anker Select Pro Portable Bluetooth Speaker has powerful stereo sound and BassUp technology to fill any room with high-quality sound, even in the great outdoors. It features built-in LEDs that blink in time to the beat, creating a fun light show. This portable speaker can play up to 16 hours from one single charge and has an IPX7 waterproof rating, making it even great for poolside listening.
 

What's the difference between the Soundcore selecrt pro and the soundcore motion boom? Will they sound the same?

Soundcode Select Pro will let you connect up to 100 speakers, but they all will play same sound. Soundcode motion boom will let you pair with only one another speaker, but it will be truly in stereo mode. Boom also has bigger batter than the Pro.
