Best sleek and stylish notebook for the price
on August 27, 2017
Posted by: Prat
This Samsung notebook is a powerful yet flexible notebook. The design is sleek and clean. I have the 13.3 inch version. This comes with the latest Intel code i7 processor and 8 GB ram with 256 GB SSD.
The booting and shutting down is fast. This model is the flip and fold model, where you get 4 modes. It comes with Bluetooth 4.1, AC wireless card, USB Type-C and 2 USB 3.0 ports, along with the built-in webcam, backlit keyboard, fast charging, touch screen. A great addition to all these is the S Pen. Given Windows 10 Creators Update and other areas utilizes pen support, this really comes in handy and you can make use of the pen perfectly. The pen's shape is not round, like a normal pen. This might take some time to get used to. If you have used Samsung galaxy note's pen, then you will love this one.
The battery life is decent, you will get 8 hours of normal use. This might be somewhat lower compared to other devices. Plus the battery life isn't consistent. The out of the box device comes with Windows 10 and some bloatware. I did a fresh install so that I can get rid of the unwanted apps. The trackpad works great. I haven't noticed any issues with it so far.
The option of microSD slot will help increase in storage space if you need more than 256 GB (only 190+ after OS installation). The built-in webcam is an IR camera, which means you can use Windows Hello to login to the system using your face recognition. This is so useful as you don't need to type any passwords to login. Using my Surface Pro 4, this feature is one of the must for me for all my new devices.
This also comes with full size HDMI, not mini or micro. Another good feature is that you can charge this notebook using a portable charger. This is done via the USB Type-C port.
You cannot connect to LAN unless you have a USB Ethernet adapter. There is no dedicated video card. This is not an issue for me since I am not planning to use this for games. Overall, this is a great notebok for the price you pay and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get a new computer for school or as a mobile computer.

Great fryer
on July 31, 2017
Posted by: Prat
This review is for DeLonghi - MultiFry 1.8-Quart Multi Cooker. I never had a multi cooker before and this is my first one. Was skeptical before using this. But it has changed my experience for good. It comes with clear instructions manual and a recipe book if you want to try few things. First thing I tried is making fries. Easy steps and oil is not even required. It has the convenience of the slow cooker added to a cooking pan. It is quick and easy to clean as well. There is a timer included with the unit. But it doesn’t do auto off of the cooker. It is more like a reminder. It can cook food for 5 people easily. Be careful opening the lid or touching the other parts, this one gets really hot. This one heats up the food from top as well as from the bottom. Overall, it is a wonderful design and very well built. Highly recommend this one as your next air fryer.

Bluetooth bridge for your wired headsets
on July 5, 2017
Posted by: Prat
Great idea and versatile headset. It converts any wired headset into wireless using the built-in 3.5mm headphone jack. You can also use the included earbuds. It uses Bluetooth to connect to any device wireless. It did last me an entire working day, although I didn't test it for more than 8 hours. The neckband is very comfortable resting around your neck and you can hide the wire inside. The band also has volume and play/pause controls that can be used to answer calls as well as listen to music. It was easy to pair up with my phone. You charge it using the included micro USB cable. It is also sweat-proof and waterproof with rating of IPx4. You get the standard three size pods. There is no noise cancelling or any additional features. You shouldn't expect the sound quality like from a high end headphone. The instructions weren't clear, but it is easy to configure. Overall, for this price point, this is a good headset that can also be used as an adapter for your wired headset.

Compact yet clear audio soundbar
on July 5, 2017
Posted by: Prat
This is my first Samsung soundbar. I have used Vizio soundbar before. This one is new and has more features and definitely feels like an upgrade for my Vizio one. I connected this to my LG TV that has Harman Kardon built-in speakers. Adding this soundbar does give a nice boost to my sound system. It has Bluetooth and 9 speakers to give you a clear and wide range sound. It is also multiroom compatible, although I couldn't test this. If you have a latest Samsung TV, the TV remote can be used to control this soundbar. I really like the 4K HDMI pass-through audio to connect with other devices like Xbox and Blu-ray players. You also have additional inputs to connect other devices. You can also stream the music from your smartphone using the Bluetooth feature. I used the traditional cable to connect to the TV. There is Bluetooth and Wi-Fi streaming of audio from TV which I haven't tested since I wasn't sure if my LG tv is compatible with it or not. Don't be fooled by its sleek design as the bar itseld is heavy and sturdy and comes with the wallmount brackets. This is ideal for apartments as well as for living rooms that are not humongous. There is no need for a subwoofer. This soundbar pretty much takes care of it. This has exceeded my expectations and I would definitely recommend it to anyone and you won't be disappointed in it, especially if you are into Samsung ecosystem.

Affordable and excellent mesh router system
on July 5, 2017
Posted by: Prat
The Connect Home is Samsung's version of Google Wifi or Linksys Velop. This is a mesh router where you can connect one router to the modem and the other routers act as an extender. The additional feature on this is it has a built-in hub called SmartThings that can connect to your other compatible devices like cameras, lights, etc. You can control all these using the phone or a tablet or even via voice control. You need to download the app for iPhone or Android to set this up. I setup the 3 pack as a mesh system. I connected all my devices to this for testing. Although the WiFi speed throughout the home was consistent and strong, it wasn't the fastest compared to the latest router. I really like the slim and sleek design. Automatic updates are a plus since you don't have to worry about being on the latest firmware. I do not have any smart devices to test the smart home features of this device. Some things to consider are that you can't configure a static IP for this router. You also cannot configure this using a computer like a traditional router. And sometimes it doesn't show all the devices connected to the router even though they are online. Maybe a software update could fix this. Overall, the performance, design, features and the functionality are impressive and i would definitely recommend it to someone looking for a mid-tier mesh router system.

Best router in the market right now.
on May 24, 2017
Posted by: Prat
Just like the other new Linksys routers, this one can be easily setup using the Linksys app or using the traditional web browser setup. The overall design is stylish and modern, but no compact. Follow the directions, connecting, and setting up was a breeze. This router has all the latest features like MU-MIMO, tri-band, gigabit Ethernet ports, great signal strength with long range covering entire home, etc. I connected 7 devices and they all have fast speeds and this router manages the load very well. If you have the old b/g/n devices, you might not experience the fastest speed. I am using the Linksys CM3024 modem with this router. The web dashboard and the app is fairly simple and easy to use. You can also use it as an additional node with Linksys Velop or as a range extender to your existing Linksys router. Haven’t experienced any drop in connection so far. The two USB 3 ports on the back can act as your own cloud storage and easily accessible on multiple devices. It is one of the best routers and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a new router in the market.

Best floor mop
on May 24, 2017
Posted by: Prat
I recently moved to a new apartment and everything is hardwood floor or tiles. I was looking for a better way to clean since my vacuum is not the best on hardwood floor. This one is a powerful, a bit heavy, cleaning mop that can be used on any hardwood or concrete/tiles floor. Straight out of the box, very easy to assemble, and start using right away. I used a soap solution to clean the floor since I didn’t had the recommended Bissell multi-surface cleaning formula. It comes with two kinds of pads, one for soft wood floor and the other one is for more tough and messy floors. You might not be able to reach the tough corners since the pads are round in shape. But this one cleans everywhere just fine. Make sure you wash or rinse the pads right after you use them so that the dirt doesn’t stick to it. It would have been nice if it was a cordless cleaner, but I understand why one would want it to be powered all the time. I would recommend using a broom to do some light sweeping of the dust/hairs etc. and the use this Spinwave for best results. Overall, I am happy with this mop and would definitely recommend it.

Affordable yet powerful portable speaker
on April 30, 2017
Posted by: Prat
I always wanted to get a portable speaker. But didn't want to spend a lot of money on it. When I got this, I was surprised by its size. I wasn't sure if it will do any good. Don't be fooled by its size. It is cute and rugged and packs a punch.
It is easy to pair right out of the box via Bluetooth. It had little charge, but I decided to let it charge completely before I start playing. There is an option to hook this speaker to your bag or door or any place. Its very light, easily portable and you can use the big plus and minus signs to control the volume. Although it is waterproof, I haven't dropped it in a pool. One of the best option is that it can be paired with another UE Wonderboom for large room or multi room setup. Unlike the front facing speakers, this one is 360 degrees and can be heard in all direction.
It comes with a USB cable to charge this speaker. Even though we have so many USB wall adapters, it would be nice if it came with one since the charging times varies based on what kind of adapter or port you use. There is no other input to the speaker like an aux or USB port. Overall, an affordable wireless Bluetooth speaker with great sound, easy portability and long battery life. I would definitely recommend this if you are considering an entry level portable Bluetooth speaker.

Amazing and impressive headphones
on March 30, 2017
Posted by: Prat
This review is for the Sony XB950N1 Noise-Canceling headphones. This is a premium, well-built unit. There is an extra bass button that that boosts the bass effect and a digital noise cancelling feature to block out the outside noise. Tapping the power button conveniently gives you the battery status over voice. Once you know the button placements, it is easy to use without thinking twice. There is an app that you can download to adjust the sound levels and battery level. The battery life is pretty good. It says 22 hours, but I have used it for few hours every day without charging it. The headphones also come with a wire if you want to use it without a Bluetooth connection. These headphones are not too heavy and very comfortable over the ears even after long hours of usage. I was able to connect to my Xbox One for game play and chat and it worked flawlessly. You can even connect to the phone and answer calls as this one has a mic. I do not own a Bose headphone to compare this with and attest to what other users might say in comparison. I had been using Monster headphone and this is a nice upgrade overall and definitely worth the purchase and would recommend it.

Premium wine purifier
on March 30, 2017
Posted by: Prat
Basically, what this wine purifier does is it removes Sulfites and Sediment. This is a very well designed piece and it looks intuitive (read fancy) in shape. It works with both red and white wine and with expensive and less expensive wines. It definitely helps anyone who is allergic to sulfate. When you pour the wine, it takes few seconds for the filter to purify and fall into the wine glass. There is a huge difference in the taste with and without using this filter. I even had people taste test using this filter and they all were surprised to see the difference. Similar to a pot coffee system, this one comes with a filter. You use one filter for 1-2 bottle of wine within 3 hours of the first use of the filer. So it is good to order or keep extra filters when having a party or people over. There is also a Decanter if you want to use a multiple bottles of wine with a single filter. The purifier is very easy to maintain and clean and also dishwasher safe, although I hand washed it. Overall, this is a premium product I would recommend to anyone who is allergic to sulfites and would like to taste the difference in the wine taste. It can also be a very good gift item.

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.

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.
