Incredible Sound and Performance, OK comfort
on October 5, 2017
Posted by: Saitzev
from Missouri, USA
I was pleasantly surprised by these headphones.
I know that B&O has a stellar reputation but have not had the pleasure of experiencing their products until now.
Where to begin? Well they were very easy to pair with my phone. However, the app you need to use, it required me to update the firmware on the headphones before I could start using them. The download for the update went incredibly quick, maybe a few seconds with my internet. The biggest issue was installing the firmware. It was a good 20-30 minutes to update the firmware. It was moving about 1% a minute. Pretty disheartening when you can use them right out of the box, ymmv though depending on the manufacturing date.
Comfort. They fit quite nice and stay in the place you put them in. The band doesn't feel loose or shifts at all and requires a bit force to initially adjust. Likely because of being used the first time. My issue with them is with most of the headphones designed like this is the way they sit on the ears instead of over them. This is of course completely dependent on how huge or small your ears are haha.
They were actually fine for about an hour or so, but after that I had to frequently adjust them to be comfortable again, usually only after 10 or 15 minutes and adjust them again.
Comfort aside they are really nice headphones. I'm not audiophile, but I have used my fair share of them.
The build quality is really nice on these. They definitely have a high quality feel to them and don't feel cheap or make me feel like they are going to fall apart with use.
On to the most important thing, how do these sound?
Well they sound incredible. One thing I will say that I really enjoy is their app and it's Tone Control. It's works like an EQ, but without managing the individual frequencies. It's like choosing a pre-set EQ.
Since I prefer a fair amount of LFE in my listening I found that right in the Middle at the top of the Tone Control between Warm and Excited is perfect for Bass centered tracks. It even worked great for Rock tracks.
There were sounds that I hadn't quite made out before in songs that I've played over other Headphones of similar price.
One thing I really enjoyed is that regardless of the Tone Control settings they sound great, even with it off. The Tone Control certainly add's tons of depth to the headphones. Most of all though, everything comes through even. Obviously there are differences to the types of sound, but i never felt like i was being overpowered with one thing over the other. this is evident in orchestral or jazz like tracks. Even while listening to Electronic, Rock, or Hip-Hop tracks I was never overwhelmed and everything just blended, but had in a sense it's own sound stage.
One impressive thing I did notice with these headphones, is in bass focused tracks, I could feel the bass. I could actually feel the effect you would get from the reverberations from a speaker. I've never really felt this on most of my headphones I've used.
My only complaint really aside from the exceedingly long firmware update is going to be the comfort of the headphones. They are such great headphones that I'm just sad because they get uncomfortable after such a short period of time. Again, this is going to be all in how they fit for you so they could be perfect for you, and if they are, the price of entry is more than worth it.

Once charged and filled with pet stain cleaner,
I found this product to work very efficiently and did remove the stains as stated in information.
Pros: light weight
Easy to use
Works as promised
Cons: Initial charge took a long time
Cleaning product runs out quickly when cleaning a large stain.
I would like to see a less costly product to use for spot removal.

Great Printer, Easy to use and setup
on September 20, 2017

from Missouri, USA
This was Easy To Install And Set Up Wireless. Fairly quiet when operating and prints pretty fast. I like the fact you can print on both sides of page instead of wasting paper, which only some printers can do.
Pictures print out clear regardless of the type of paper you are using. Glossy Photo Paper will all give you the best result for photos.
Unit is fairly low profile so would work well in a choice of spaces.

The gold accents are a nice touch and not overblown, and gives it a bit of character.
I would definitely recommend this. We will see how the ink holds up over time.

Amazing mouse for gaming.
on August 11, 2017
Posted by: Saitzev
from Missouri, USA
This mouse is really fantastic.
In the short time I have had it, it's worked incredibly well. The DPI of up to 12,000 is insane and makes for rapid movements and pinpoint shooting is a breeze.
I love the lighting on it. I kinda wish my G700v1 I use also had this. The Logitech software works perfect without any issue, this is also true on MacOS Sierra where I have been primarily using the mouse.
The battery, although I wish it was removable, is incredible. Compared to the rechargable in my G700, this thing will last you a while. If you have the brightness of the mouse all the way up and you have it pulse rotating the RGB lit mousewheel and Logitech G logo, you will see about 12-16 hours. I keep mine about half brightness on a single color with a slow pulse with only the logo lit and I'm seeing around 26-32 hours on a full charge. I imagine you could get a whole work week out of the mouse with max polling and minimal brightness. You can turn off the lighting completely as well. You can also adjust it to where you can have just the logo, the mousewheel, or both on or off independently. I really like the cable they included as it's all braided and definitely gives a sense of quality. It also has the wireless dongle. It also has some sort of other rectangular dongle with a standard USB on one side and Micro USB on the other. I think this is so you can use the charger cable as an extension for the wireless dongle if your case is far away.
My only real cons with this mouse, I wish it had more buttons. You get the Middle Mouse, Horizontal Scroll, 2 side buttons and the middle button below the wheel for DPI. All these can be configured through the Logitech SW.
The other con I have is that the mouse picks up dust really well around the Teflon feet. I've also noticed the Teflon pad that's around the laser start to shift, not sure how long it will last before it comes off. I'm using it on a SteelSeries QCK+ mat, which my 5 year old G700 hasn't had an issue with.

Oh before I forget, they also included a weight in the box. It add's a bit of heft to the mouse as well.

A new take on neckband based ear-buds.
on July 29, 2017
Posted by: Saitzev
I can't really say that I'm a huge fan of these. I've never really been a big fan of earbuds as they typically get uncomfortable for me after a short time of use.
These are definitely not the most usable if you're a much larger person. The biggest issue for me is that the speaker placement is behind my ears. I'm not sure if this is to emulate the surround experience but it only felt like I was listening to Stereo Sound. The added Micro Subs that are supposed to "Vibrate" to simulate LFE don't really do anything, again this could all be due to my larger frame. I would say if your over 250lbs with a large neck, you will probably not enjoy these at all.
I did use the speaker mode with my TV, an older Vizio XVT423 with bluetooth, aside from there being latency, the tv uses a much older BT profiling version, and I will say they did a decent job. I didn't get any bit of a surround effect feeling at all from them, but they were clear, again though, nothing really there for low end so it was mostly just the high's coming through.
Audio Quality wise, the earbuds lack depth, I listened to a variety of music over them and everything was just really bright with not much in the low end to replicate any bass whatsoever. For a pair of earbuds that are over $250, I expected a lot more and was disappointed.
The earbuds and speakers do not work at the same time, they are controlled by a toggle, which makes sense, however it would have been nice had they word in conjunction to provide some low end response.
If LG can figure out how to get a more even sound out the speakers and the earbuds and maybe make it where the neckband is adjustable to some degree they would have a real winner, but these at the current MSRP at $300 is big bite to chew on.

Great product for indoor grilling!
on June 29, 2017
Posted by: Saitzev
Pros on this unit: Love the choice of grill plates and the fact they are dishwasher safe. A lot can be cooked at one time on this unit. Does cook well once you figure it out.
Cons on this unit: You need to make sure you have the counter space for this unit .Fully opened it takes up a large area. Unless you are keeping it on counter all the time it will need a generous space to store it.
Takes a while to study the instructions and you need to . A bit confusing and instructions aren't the clearest. More pages were given to Spanish instructions than English.
All in all ,it’s a fine unit, well constructed, easy to clean.
One thing I would have to liked to see is that there was less plastic. The knobs and buttons are all very cheap feeling and are made of plastic. For the price, and the fact there is stainless steel on the unit, I would have expected that the buttons and knobs be stainless as well as it would give off a better feel of reliability and durability. Other than that really the only real negative is the space as mentioned above.

I was not thrilled with this product. It was very inconvenient to use. I spent more time watching where it was going and I could have vacuumed with my shark and did my whole house in what it took for the powerboat to do half of my living room. These was even after 3 runs of the machine, not very efficient.
You have to empty the container to many times. Very disappointed!

Great Tablet, Good alternative to Surface Tablets.
on June 15, 2017
Posted by: Saitzev
Where to begin... This is a really great Tablet.
I like the size of it as it's not quite you're normal Notebook PC, but it's small enough to not be cumbersome. The addition of the S-Pen and the included folio/keyboard cover gives it an advantage over other competitors. Instead of having to buy a pen and a keyboard after the fact, Samsung includes it, which compared to some other folks, their pens and keyboards/cover can run you an addition $60 and $150 respectively. I will also say, and this was not advertised when choosing this tablet, was that included with my tablet was a 128GB MicroSD Card, so it gives the tablet 256GB of storage. I wouldn't recommend installing anything to the card however unless it's a program or something you don't really need speed for. Using it as storage is going to be the best option for you. There are MicroSD cards on the market that are as fast as some lower end Solid State Drives and that would be a big investment, but it would also give you very fast, very reliable storage on this tablet.
After having it for a couple weeks now I've been able to do some various things on the tablet. Writing, drawing, web browsing, light gaming, even installing an Android emulator to take advantage of the high resolution screen and screen size.
It's been a trooper through all this, however, it can get overwhelmed easily at times, especially when really multi-tasking. I think this is in part due to the amount of available RAM and the CPU in this particular model. This tablet comes with an i5 7th Gen CPU and operates up to 3.10GHz. Under use you can hear the fan kick on but it's not very loud out all. The RAM is only 4GB, but there's a 256GB model that gives you 8GB. That may make multi-tasking easier.
I have had the tablet lock up a couple times while I was using it and that was usually doing more than one thing at once, which resulted in needing to force off the tablet. It seems to do this most with Google Chrome, which I'm currently using to write this review. Again it could have been due to too any things going on, but other browsers appear to be fine, IE and Edge notably.
The tablet starts up and shuts down really fast thanks to the actual SSD in the tablet, not the typical flash memory you find in most other "tablets". From being completely off you can be in the tablet and going within 10-15 seconds. Windows 10 boots extremely quick due to the SSD.
Applications and such open near instantly, unless of course you have a lot going, as this is just a Dual Core CPU. The tablet could have really been a lot better with Quad Core part instead, even if it was clocked slower.
The Display on this tablet is awesome. It's an AMOLED screen, which means colors pop, they can be a bit over-saturated, similar to AMOLED based cell phones. Otherwise, the screen is very bright, easy to read just great to look at. The resolution is very nice and makes viewing websites in portrait mode a breeze as you get plenty of information on screen without having to scroll as often.
Sound is decent for a tablet, it's not earth shattering but it works very well and you can hear it just fine. When I was streaming in the hospital recently I had the sound up to around 15-20 and it was plenty loud to hear the sitcom I was watching. I didn't try a movie or anything but music, youtube, netflix all seem to be easily heard over the dual side speakers.
The keyboard and touchpad are about what you would expect for a slim style. The Keyboard is backlit, so you won't have issues typing in the dark either. The keys light up through not only the letters but also around the individual keys as well and it's just bright enough without being overwhelming, and it offers a couple different levels depending on your needs. The touchpad can be pretty sensitive, this can be alleviated some within the settings of Windows 10. I have noticed that at times if the tablet is not on a flat surface, sometimes the touchpad will get stuck. This happens when you click on something and then you have to re-adjust the keyboard and it will return to it's normal operation. Overall the keyboard and touchpad are just fine for this tablet and make using this as a notebook PC that much easier.
The S-Pen does not dock anywhere into the Tablet due to the slim design of the Tablet. The keyboard case however has a place on it that you can adhere a S-Pen holder on to it. It can be unwieldy if you're holding the Tablet with the case folded over to where you are in tablet mode as the holster gets in your way. The Tablet does easily and quickly dock into the cover thought and is easy to take out and use without the keyboard case. The case does offer the ability to prop up the screen like most folio cases, but unless you are on a flat surface or a slight elevated surface the tablet will just tip over. so that is one negative of the case/cover.

The S-Pen, having previously owned Galaxy Note phones, these devices have always been joy to use, especially when needing to do any handwriting. The S-Pen recognizes how much force and input your putting in when you're writing on the screen. Press down real hard and you get a much wider stroke, lightly write and you can wind up with some fine lines. Handwriting, Windows 10 recognition is actually very very good here. I'm a horrible writer let alone using a screen and pen and it apparently can read my gibberish about 90-95% of the time. My only quirk about this is that with handwriting instead of the keyboard is that the box you right in isn't all that large, so you can get in about 6 or 7 words and then have to enter then begin the next portion of the sentence. This is of course due to Windows 10 so it's nothing bad about the tablet itself. The Pen does offer some Samsung style things when you press the button on it, like making quick notes, or even screen capturing to name a couple. It does have to be in close contact with the screen as if you are writing on it though. If you've used a Galaxy Note phone, you will know what I mean. Earlier I mentioned the holster and that there is not place to hold the pen, there is a small work around for this if you are just using the pen and the tablet and want to keep the pen somewhat safe. The clip porting of the pen appears to be made of metal, so what you can do is along the back of the tablet there are magnetic areas, namely for the folio case so you can "kickstand" the tablet, but you can stick the pen up against one of the magnets and it will mostly keep the pen in place there. Not as nice as say a holster, but still a better way to keep track of your S-Pen. There is no message if you travel too far away from the pen, but if you lose it, they are around $70 to replace.
Overall the tablet is great. It can get warm when using it intensively and takes a bit of time to cool off, but you can typically get right back to it.
Battery life is ok. You could probably get away with watching several hours of Netflix or hulu with the brightness down, but with it all the way up the battery goes fast. In the 90 minutes that it has been on and I've been typing this review and browsing the web with a couple tabs open it's gone from 100% to 70%. I'm also using a battery plan than maximizes performance, so using balanced or another option or other settings could very well make this last a good 8 hours for you. It all depends on what you're doing but overall, again it's a great tablet.
I did some Netflix streaming on it a while back and only saw about a 10% use in battery with the brightness near max on my current battery plan. I want to say it was about 2 hours of streaming or so. I imagine if you download to the tablet you could get even more time out of it since you wouldn't be using WiFi.
I will also say if you want to use an external screen or any other device you will need to get a USB-C to USB adapter as the tablet has only 2 USB-C ports. Samsung makes an adapter that gives you a USB 3.0, HDMI and a USB-C port on it, but it's expensive. There are some alternatives out there so if you need to use a mouse or keyboard, you have options still.

Great Bluetooth Speaker
on April 24, 2017
Posted by: Saitzev
Just to preface, I've never owned a bluetooth speaker, so my thoughts on this could be seen as biased.
Firstly, this is not small, this is a pretty good size speaker, it's roughly a foot wide, about 4 inches tall and about 4 deep. So with it being a fairly large speaker that means that the speakers themselves aren't tiny and tinny sounding.
Secondly, the biggest benefit to this speaker is that you can add a second, and it doesn't have to be the same model. Although I imagine in doing so you will end up with an imbalance of sound.
The biggest issue with this though is cost. I don't imagine too many will be willing to shell out $500 for a pair of these speakers.
The biggest issue with this though is cost. I don't imagine too many will be willing to shell out $500 for a pair of these speakers.
So, as for quality of the speaker itself, the sound is pretty good. I've used it paired to my phone, my tablet, and my Vizio TV.
It's really nice too in that it has an app you can download to connect to it to control the audio from whatever source you have it connected to. I noticed thought that when you do this, you need to connect the app first otherwise the BT will override the source it's initially connected to and stop audio/playback.
Audio wise, I've listened to a variety of music and it's handled it all very well. It's not an exact accurate reproduction of the soundscape though. If the Extra Bass option is off it reverts to a flat eq, this can be adjusted from within the app thankfully. With it on flat it leaves something to be desired, but playing around with the EQ or even just turning on the Xtra Bass mode adds a lot of life and depth to the sound. Spending time with it can really transform the basic sound from it. It does get plenty loud too. The bass can get a bit muddled when the sound gets loud though.
Some other pros of it I appreciate of this speaker is the fact that it's water resistant. The panel on the back that seals closed has a Aux port, USB to charge a device and the charging port. It seems to hold a charge for a good long while.
The lights on it are to me, gimmicky, but to some it could be a welcome thing. I do wish that it was a bit better tuned to the audio coming through. It does pick up the pace when the playback get's busy, but for example, the strobe setting is just not very effective.
Overall though, if you got the money to spend, for $250 this would be a good option. Again though, at $500 for a pair, that's a stretch. You might be better off going with some of the X20-30 models and then just pairing a bunch together. I believe you can have a maximum of 4 all in sync which is nice.

I do not like at all the fact that that the mop does not stand up on it's own.

It certainly does. You can buy, swap or send and receive Dogecoin on the Nano. You do all this from the Ledger Live app either on PC or your mobile device. I'd recommend doing so from the PC as connecting it to your phone would require you to use an adapter since it uses the antiquated Micro-USB connection.

Featuring clear voice technology, this Yamaha sound bar ensures clear dialog so you can keep up with critical scenes or plot twists.
can i use this remote only and not have to go to a different one?
If you're meaning whether or not you have to use the included remote, then yes, you don't have to use any other. If you mean if you can use a 3rd party universal remote, that would be something you would probably have to reach out to Yamaha or the manufacturer of the remote for.
Also keep in mind you can use your phone as a remote with the Sound Bar app. It's called Sound Bar Controller and it's made by Yamaha. You can also use Alexa to control it as well.

This would be a killer unit if the GPU was a 1650 instead of the paltry 1050. As you can see at 1080 it just barely holds on to 30 fps at mostly medium. Further tweaking and you can probably get that closer to 35-40.

Acer Nitro 5 Laptop: Lose yourself in the absorbing multimedia experience delivered by this Acer Nitro 5 gaming laptop. The Intel Core i5 processor ensures a lag-free performance, and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 graphics card delivers immersive visuals on the 15.6-inch Full HD display. This Acer Nitro 5 gaming laptop has 8GB of RAM for seamless multitasking.
I bought this laptop with 256gb a month ago. Can I add extra 2.5 Internal HDD or SDD in it?
You certainly can. It's got expansion for another M.2 drive as well as a standard 2.5" Mechanical or SSD drive. If you want to expand the SSD storage I'd recommend looking at the Corsair MP510 series. They're cheap, fast, have a 5yr warranty and will probably outlive you lol. They have the highest endurance of any drives currently on the market, enterprise sector aside.

See who's at the door on your smartphone with this SkyBell Trim Plus home-security doorbell. It sends HD video and two-way audio and can detect and record a visitor's presence via live monitoring and a motion sensor. This rugged SkyBell Trim Plus home-security doorbell has full-color night vision and withstands inclement weather.
Does it come with the angle mount?
It does not sadly. You'll have to buy them. They're $10 per wedge at their website. You'll have to use theirs though, I bought some off Amazon and the SkyBell does not fit on them. They secure points or too close together which makes it impossible to use with them. Sadly I had to eat the cost cause it would have cost me more to send them back than I did paying for them.

How many USB ports does it have
Sadly it doesn't have any. I was hoping it might have had even just 2 USB 2.0 ports but it doesn't even have that.

Does this monitor rotate to be used in portrait mode?
You sure can rotate it. It might not seem like with how high the stand extends, but it is enough with some room left if you have anything beneath the screen itself.

The ambient lighting only displays from the middle one below the logo, how do i make it display from all of them?
The lighting is only along the bottom center strip, the Green you're seeing go out along the sides is merely accenting trim. It would have been nice to see either just the single bit being green instead of all along the bottom or just extend it but that just doesn't happen to be the case here.
It's still quite bright and doesn't really seem invasive. You can adjust the lighting option in the OSD though from either Off, On or Breathing.

Enjoy interactive streaming with this Google Nest Hub. With the built-in Google Assistant, you can view your calendar, receive alerts and reminders, and control devices from the single dashboard, and voice control lets you access other smart features. This Google Nest Hub lets you listen to music from Spotify and Pandora and view YouTube content. "
Can this be used with your phone to make video calls? Using Duo App?
It cannot :( as it lacks a Camera. There may be 3rd Party models that include one, but the one from Google does not have this capability. I attached a photo of mine, pardon the grainyness, but at the top you can see a small oval, this is an Ambient Light sensor to adjust the screen brightness. There's 2 mics flanking the Sensor to it's sides.
I imagine in the next revision we may get a Camera though.
