Superior Look, Fit, & Sound Quality
on August 16, 2022
Posted by: MRWilson
Google has always been in that top tier of software and now it is a breath of fresh air that they are able to provide hardware products in that same tier. I am a heavy wireless earbud user and I must say that Google is now a strong competitor to Apple and Sony in the wireless earbud department.
Right out of the box the aesthetics and build quality of these headphones are great as I love the matte look and feel as there is no cheap plastic feel to them. The wireless charging case was exactly as expected and the fast pairing worked seamlessly. I do appreciate the removal of the wingtips from the previous version as those just felt cumbersome in my ear and created an additional pressure. This did not affect the fit at all though as the earbuds fit snuggly in my ear and even after multiple runs I have yet to have any issues with the earbuds coming loose. I did use the ear tip seal check in the Pixel Buds app and it recommended moving to the larger size ear tips so I would recommend running that test before just settling on the default medium size ear tips.
In regard to the actual performance though I was extremely impressed with what Google has done here. I will say my daily drivers are my airpod pros, but after using these I was shocked at how they actually sounded better for typically once you hit that $150 threshold in earbud cost there is not much difference when it comes to actual sound quality as you are simply paying for extra features, but putting recency bias aside and going and back and forth the pixel buds put out a more pronounced and fuller sound. You are also not losing any of those extra features here with the pixel buds as the active noise cancellation is top notch and nearly matches that of the Sony WF-100XM4 earbuds which are noted as being the king of the mountain. Additionally, the transparency mode, call quality (both incoming and outgoing), automatic device switching, built-in Google Assistant, and in-ear detection are all on par with both those of Apple and Sony.
There are a couple items I do want to highlight that I really liked with these earbuds over the competitors. The first was the simplicity of the app as every single piece of technology anymore has a dang convoluted app, but the pixel buds app was extremely straightforward and easy to use. I know I previously mentioned the active noise cancellation, but the thing that stood out was that there was not as strong of a pressure when this was turned on as with other earbuds which resulted in a much more comfortable fit. The last thing very subtle thing I want to note are the charging lights on the case as when the case is under 20% the light blinks yellow which is such a small thing, but comes in handy.
Overall, there has yet to be anything I can fault these earbuds for as I am blown away by this product by Google. They are the perfect combination between the top-notch portability of the airpod pros and the superior sound quality of the Sony WF-1000XM4s. I would not hesitate to recommend these to anyone, especially if they are an Android user. If Google can build upon this success in their phone and wearables lines they definitely could dethrone Apple and Samsung in the coming years.

Versatility In A Nearly Complete Package
on August 12, 2022
Posted by: MRWilson
As someone who has used a variety of computer monitors for both work and entertainment this product by Samsung is definitely a first of its kind. In true Samsung fashion they have stepped out of the box and were able to merge elements of both a computer monitor and tv into one product though unfortunately it falls just short in a couple areas.
Right out of the box the look of the monitor appears very sleek and modern to which you will definitely not be ashamed to have this sitting on your desk. The stand is very slim and compact which is nice visually, but unfortunately the stand is thus somewhat wobbly though you shouldn't need to touch the monitor often since a remote is included. The included remote is where you first start to notice this is not your normal computer monitor as the remote mirrors that of a traditional television and is extremely handy when using the built it smart features for entertainment.
The actual performance of the monitor is where it tries to do a little of everything, but does not fully excel in any one area. The initial aspect that stands out is the brightness or lack there of as it is not as bright as the majority of other monitors though as long as you are not working in bright daylight there is not an issue. For tv watching the visuals are right on par with what you would expect from a tv, but if trying to game it just does not feel like it is a true 4k experince and that may simply be because of such the large display with the majority of gaming monitors being 27 inches or less that the pixel density is just not as compact with this monitor. As far as gaming goes I think I would say this is more geared toward producitvity and consuming media as can be shown by the 60Hz refresh rate and lack of freesync and g-sync.
Building on the varierty of use cases for this monitor I will say it does start to excel when it comes to productivity. The ability to remotely access office 365, use DeX with your android phone, and use airplay 2 with your apple products is what sets this monitor apart as very rarely do you see all these features on one monitor. The voice assistant and 5 watt speakers begin the transition to entertainment monitor that functions as a smart tv with the built in apps. Again the monitor may not be the brightest, but the ability to transition from work to entertainment is a major success for this product.
Overall, this monitor has both it's pros and cons which comes down ultimately to the user. If you are a college student you couldn't ask for much more as the price is absolutely fantastic for a monitor with these productivity features that easily transitions to your dorm room tv with the included remote and wifi capabilities for streaming apps. However, if you are someone predominantly focused on gaming then you may be swayed to other models. Samsung has swung for the fences here and hit a ground rule double in my opinion as there are some truly revolutionary facets with some areas that do seek improvement though at this price point I find it difficult to find anything comparable.

Absolute Tank
on August 11, 2022
Posted by: MRWilson
The past couple years I have explored other gaming laptops from Asus and MSI, but after coming back to this laptop from Alienware it has definitely made me question why I even ventured out to other brands. This laptop is an absolute tank in every dimension and thus dwarfs the competition.
Firstly, the unboxing was effortless as there was not a lot of fluff as it was very premium and included the basic necessities of the laptop, charging cable (which is the largest computer power brick I`ve ever seen), and your basic warranty/startup instructions. I will note that this thing is absolutely massive and with the size of the power brick I would not plan on this being too portable as it seems geared more towards a traditional stationary gaming setup. The build quality of this laptop is absolutely of utmost quality. There is no cheap flimsy plastic as it is almost a metal/plastic combination that is used and the matte finish produces a very mature and professional theme. The full backlit keyboard is great and the keys allow that perfect distance of travel with the layout of the keys being extremely well though out as I found myself using the keyboard shortcuts much more than I had with my past gaming laptops. The large trackpad is also a big upgrade over many of those used with 15 inch laptops and it has been extremely responsive when not using an external mouse. My favorite non-performance aspect of this laptop is the ports being on the back of the laptop as it allows for a much cleaner setup to which the ports provided leave nothing to be desired. The overall build quality thus shines to which the only small blemish I can note is the lack of a number pad as I feel with as large as the laptop is this could have been included.
After being impressed right of the box with the aesthetics the laptop only impresses more with its performance. The startup was extremally simple and straightforward as it utilizes Windows 11. A major positive was the lack of bloatware as there really was nothing that needed to be uninstalled following the setup. After finishing setup I went right into getting some games downloaded from FPS (Warzone and Apex) to open world games (Red Dead 2 and GTA). After hours of playing I can definitely say that there is not anything you can throw at this laptop from a gaming perspective that it can not handle! When it comes to shooters I was hitting 200 frames consistently and then with those open world games to hit 100 frames at high settings without any overheating issues was absolutely phenomenal! I know there are some that prefer to game at 4k, but if refresh rate is what you are after then this laptop is a must buy as there is nothing that it can`t take. The colors and vividness of the games was also outstanding and I really did not see much need for a 4k display as if you really want to do that you can always game on a traditional tv. Then in regard to the speakers they were definitely solid though with the size of the laptop I think I may have expected slightly more though it is not a major weakness. Additionally, when it comes to usability, the only negative aspect that comes to mind after using this laptop is the 720p webcam as I was somewhat surprised that it did not have the standard 1080p webcam though when it comes to gaming this is obviously a non-factor.
Overall, I will remain with my initial title in that this is an absolute tank of a laptop in all facets. The build quality is of the utmost quality as you will not have to worry about anything breaking from that standpoint. Then the performance is outstanding as it will power through absolutely anything you want to throw at it! I know this laptop may be in that upper price range, but you are truly paying for that difference as I would find it extremely difficult to find anything that would outmatch this machine.

Works as Advertised With NO Sensitivity Issues
on May 24, 2022
Posted by: MRWilson
I have always been a proponent of whitestrips as they always seemed to do the job, but after using this system by Snow I definitely have a new favorite preferred teeth whitening method.
Right out of the box the initial packaging was of great quality along with the product itself. There were not too many bells and whistles with all the unnecessary accessories as you see with other products so it seemed extremely straightforward. Setting everything up was as simple as plugging the included usb cable into a power adapter and then standing up the case, so all in all it takes less than a minute.
Now onto the actual use of the product. To start with I can say I typically appreciate simple instructions, but the instructions included seemed almost too basic and I could have used a little more as I ended up going to the product`s webpage to find a little more specific instructions. However, after looking up those instructions everything seemed fairly simple. I will say that what sets this product apart is the wireless nature as with my usual whitestrips this was one feature that is a must for me. The process was extremely simple each day and after 30 days of leaving the mouthpiece in for 15 minutes each day I moved up two (nearly three) shades on the included guide. After showing pictures before and after using the product (without the guide) my wife was able to distinguish which ones were before and which ones were after. Also, just as important, was that after the 30 days I did not have any teeth sensitivity issues as after using other whitening products this has been an issue for me. Overall, the only real item that did not seem to work absolutely seamlessly was the touch sensitive power button as it is sensitive and at times it did come on without me meaning to hit it or water splashing it.
All in all, this product by Snow has impressed me exponentially from the initial packaging to the ease of use and the overall positive effect it had on my teeth. I can definitely overlook the two minor inconveniences of the simplistic instructions and sensitive power button as I would not hesitate to recommend this product.

Stylish and Secure
on May 5, 2022
Posted by: MRWilson
from Auburn, IN
I had been looking at smart locks in recent years waiting for one that finally checks all the boxes to which this lock by Eufy does exactly that.
Firstly, with the installation this was much easier than anticipated. The instructions are clear and getting everything installed took less than 10 minutes. The calibration was the part that is finicky, but after understanding to fully open and close the door during calibration everything went much more smoothly. The app even has a video showing the installation process, which was extremely helpful!
The aesthetics of this lock are very sleek as everything has that matte black finish that blends in perfectly. Some may complain that the lock is plastic, but when mounted you won`t even notice the difference. The keypad is great as I love the actual physical buttons in order to avoid any malfunctions that come with the touch key models. I have not had any issues yet with water resistance and it appears to have an extremely sound seal that I do not anticipate any issues.
Then finally when it came down to the actual use and function all features worked absolutely flawlessly with my iOS devices. The auto lock and unlock are a major component of why this model is so great and I am extremely pleased that it has worked bug free. Additionally, the alerts have been working perfect for me as well as I have not had any false alerts so it is to the point where I trust it nearly 100%. As mentioned earlier the keypad has worked flawlessly and I have had no issues with using it or providing temporary codes. I also have not had any issues with the battery so hopefully it holds up to the full year of use as advertised.
Overall, I really don`t think you can go wrong purchasing this smart lock from Eufy as nearly all elements from the appearance to setup and use are right on par with other high end models. Eufy is constantly at the forefront as the perfect budget product in a multitude of categories and it is no different here. The multitude of features are exactly what you need and I really can`t think of much else you could expect out of a smart lock.

Powerful Combination
on April 29, 2022
Posted by: MRWilson
from Auburn, IN
I have always been a little envious of my wife as she has always used the Philips Sonicare line compared to the Oral-B toothbrush I have used in the past, but upon using this system I am definitely convinced in making the right choice to switch to Philips Sonicare.
Firstly, right out of the box the setup of the product was extremely easy and you really don`t even need to use the instructions it is so simplistic, even if you have never used a water powered flosser before.
Everyone has probably used an electric toothbrush nowadays, but Philips takes it up a notch in a multitude of ways. Firstly, the look and feel make it seem like a premium product as it is not just cheap flimsy plastic. After getting past the cosmetics, the technology that Philips has packed into a toothbrush is definitely amazing. The Sonicare app is where this toothbrush starts to set itself apart as the toothbrush is Bluetooth and thus connects to the app in order to provide assistance with your brushing routine that entails the timing and pressure of the toothbrush along with also keeping track of the time until your toothbrush head needs replaced. The best part about the app though was that it was actually bug free on my IOS device (iPhone 13). Then finally in regard to the actual use and effectiveness it definitely was as expected, though different than the traditional Oral-B toothbrush I had been using as it had a different motion that I assume to be more effective as my teeth did have that clean feeling upon completion.
The second component was the water flosser, which was what I was most intrigued to use as I have always been a traditional floss sticks person. I will say that it was definitely an interesting experience as there is most certainly a technique to it as the first week or so of use you will have to be patient as excess water/mist will end up on the counter and it will take some time to get used to. However, after the first couple weeks it only takes about a minute and you`re good to go. The base was extremely quiet though and the multiple tips (especially the quad stream tip) was a great plus as it allowed a more personalized approach as opposed to just varying water intensities. The one qualm I did have with the flosser though was the cord as it was nice that it folds right back into the base and the magnetic back of the flosser was great, but the cord was very stiff and I did catch the base beginning to tip a couple times when the water level was becoming low. Additionally, there is that slight hassle to fill the reservoir up after each use, but compared to traditional flossing it is still easier though compared to my trusty floss sticks the verdict is still out until I can get some more use with the water flosser.
Overall, you really can`t go wrong with purchasing this product to take care of both your brushing and flossing needs. Yes, it is not perfect with the unsteady base at times and need to consistently fill up the reservoir, but the pros far outweigh the cons in that both the toothbrush and flosser allow an extremely personalized experience with the introduction of the Philips Sonicare app and the multitude of settings and heads within each individual item

Powerful and Versatile
on February 7, 2022
Posted by: MRWilson
from Auburn, IN
I was very intrigued to get my hands on one of these new laptops that utilized both AMD`s processor and new graphics card to which this did not disappoint. I have used my fair share of Intel, Nvidia, and AMD components to which this laptop seems to be one of the best bang for your buck laptops with its use of an AMD processor and graphics card combined with its versatility.
Firstly, the build quality is the first thing I noticed taking it out of the box as MSI definitely put out a quality built laptop here that is first apparent with the metal cover. The first aspect that sets this "gaming" laptop apart is how versatile it is in its appearance as it does not have the flashy RGB or odd angles and big flashy letters to which it instead sports a very symmetrical and professional look as the only logo is the MSI block logo on the cover that is very subtle. This is nice as I can use it in a library or in a classroom without drawing a lot of attention that I`m using a gaming laptop for everyday work as it is extremely visually appealing. The other element that makes this laptop feel more on the business or everyday use of the spectrum are the keys. The keys do not have much travel and are on the lighter side which isn`t the greatest for gaming in my opinion. However, this allows this gaming laptop to be one of the lightest and thinnest I have ever used which is a great way to offset the lack of more of a gaming keyboard.
Moving onto performance is where I`m sure a lot of people are intrigued as to how this new AMD combo compares to Nvidia graphics cards to which it definitely holds it own and gives Nvidia a run for its money. At first I was skeptical that I would achieve high enough performance to utilize the laptop`s 240hz screen, but once again I was impressed as on less demanding games such as Overwatch, Doom Eternal, and FIFA I was able to hit over 200 fps on medium settings and then even on more demanding games like Far Cry 6, Assassins Creed Valhalla, and Deathloop I was able to hit around 70 fps on Ultra Settings!! This laptop was able to handle nearly everything I threw at it. There were two minor hiccups that occurred during my testing though with the first being the use of ray tracing as the laptop really struggled when playing with ray tracing on, but when turned off it appeared to run much better. Then a minor issue was just that the laptop seems to run extremely warm, but this seems to be an issue that nearly every gaming laptop faces currently. Then the final item I want to mention along the lines of performance is the battery life as thing lasted forever on a charge compared to other gaming laptops and the aspect that amazed me the most was that this laptop is lighter and thinner than nearly every other gaming laptop I`ve used so how they managed to achieve this is beyond me, but it truly is amazing.
Overall, this laptop is at the top of the mountain when it comes to a versatile laptops that tiptoes that fine line between a gaming and everyday use. The slim and sleek design combined with the superior performance of the "AMD Advantage" of utilizing both an AMD processor and graphics card is a near perfect match. If the ray tracing issue was improved even slightly then this would be an absolute perfect laptop, but still at this price point I would not hesitate to recommend this laptop as the versatility and performance are things extremely difficult to find in the laptop space, especially in this price range!

Perfect Mix of Tech and Style

How Often Used:Daily
I like to think of myself as pretty proficient when it comes to technology and rarely am I amazed by new technology as everything nowadays seems to be more evolutionary than revolutionary, but leave it to a pair of sunglasses to surprise me. At first I assumed this was just another gimmicky product, but I think this is the next true wearable segment that eventually meets with virtual reality which makes sense as to why Facebook was pivotal in its creation.
Anyways though upon first opening the package everything is is of the highest quality from the packaging down to the leather USB-C charging case and to the sunglasses themselves. Having a smaller face I figured the sides would be massive with all the internals that they had to pack in, but they really are only slightly larger than regular Ray-Bans and the weight is practically indistinguishable from traditional Wayfarers. Bringing Ray-Ban onboard this project definitely helped sell the product as everything you would expect from the form, fit, and function of traditional Ray-Bans is similar. With the number of colors and styles available I`m sure everyone can find something they like as each style mirrors their Ray-Ban counterpart.
After being satisfied with the overall look I figured worst case was that I use them as traditional sunglasses if all the tech items were subpar. The instructions to get started were very simple and after downloading the app and syncing them to my phone I was up and running in less than five minutes. The nice thing with these is that they didn`t try to do too much as the functions are very basic so that there are not four or five buttons on them to remember where everything is at. Playing audio (music and calls), taking videos, and taking pictures are the three key functions to which each were incorporated perfectly so that there is just one extremely slim button on the top and one touchpad on the side of the sunglasses. First I played some music and that is where I was so amazed I went and took them to my wife to show her as it literally sounded like I had my airpods in as it was so clear. Then I moved to taking pictures and videos to which the experience was seamless and uploading them to my phone couldn`t have been easier with the app. The voice assistant was also a nice feature as it made everything hands free and was extremely simplistic as it only responds to perform items the sunglasses can execute (change track/volume, take picture/video, etc) so it`s not going to read off some obscure web search when it doesn`t understand your question. Then finally the battery was no issue in my daily use as the case provided enough power for a whole weekend.
There are two items that need addressed. Firstly is that yes, this isn`t a DSLR or iPhone 13 camera in a pair of sunglasses and nobody should expect it to be at this price point and style of glasses. I will say that the pictures and videos I took were great for what I expected as only upon zooming in to larger landscape pictures does it become even slightly grainy. Then secondly is that Meta (Facebook) designed the technology/software and that some may have concerns over privacy to which I will say that we are just taking pictures and videos here and Meta does a great job understanding that people may have some hesitancies so they attempted to keep it as barebones as possible upon setup and security features.
Overall, I complete product reviews weekly and very rarely do products come by that amaze me like these sunglasses do. From the aesthetics of mirroring my other pair of wayfarers exactly to the technology in these I really hope that other companies take notice as I definitely could see this being the next Apple Watch type product that we all will have in the coming years.

Peace of Mind and Better Sleep
on February 2, 2022
Posted by: MRWilson
from Auburn, IN
When it comes to buying baby products a lot of them seem to predominantly offer parents peace of mind to which this is exactly what the Owlet Dream Sock does. Upon venturing into all the various baby products this was one item I knew I wanted as I had been told numerous times from other first time parents that their babies were completely motionless when they slept, but they didn`t dare risk waking them up. The Owlet solves this problem perfectly!
Upon opening the sock it is apparent that Owlet had quality in mind. The material of the sock seemed very comforting and our baby didn`t have any issues. The inclusion of four separate socks (left and right along with 2 sizes) was a nice added feature to ensure the widest range of uses. The small base station was nice and the wireless charging is a great feature!
Getting into the actual use of the sock though is where it really shines. The sock tracked nearly every aspect of our baby`s sleep that you could ask for to which I will say that it no longer does track blood oxygen level, but I think for the vast majority this should not be a deterrent to purchasing the product in the slightest as the amount of other sleeping measurements was immense! The ability to track heart rate, movement, and times woken up is not where it ends though as it is not just a tracking product, but also a learning product as it took our child`s sleep data and showed how it could be improved along with setting up a sleep program and then even providing weekly parenting tips.
Some of the best functions of this sock that go unnoticed are the ease of use, fit of the sock, and the long battery life. Upon opening the product it was up and running in less than five minutes and my wife and I were even able to use it that night. The fit has been great and we have not had any issues with it falling off in the slightest. Then the battery life is exceptional as it seems to last for naps and through the nights without issue.
Overall, I can`t recommend this product enough for both peace of mind while your child is sleeping and also to help improve your child`s overall sleep with the various programs and tips. If you`re looking specifically for a high tech mini apple watch that is going to record every body metric then this may not be for you, but if you are looking for peace of mind and better sleep for both yourself and your child then this product is a must!!

Mice are a dime a dozen today with the rise in popularity of competitive gaming and what Logitech has done here has definitely set itself apart from it`s competitors. I will firstly say that the partnership with Shroud was a great marketing move, but regardless the product does speak for itself.
Firstly, right out of the box the mouse is definitely visually appealing and I greatly appreciated the removal of the excessive RGB. The mouse looks very sleek and refined. The other aspect that is a nice feature is the USB-C charging.
Onto the actual performance though is where this mouse really starts to set itself apart. The first thing you notice is how lightweight it is to which at first I did show some hesitancy, but after using it for a few hours I began to realize how valuable this aspect is. In addition to how lightweight the mouse is, the use of the HERO 25K sensor resulted in amazing precision that is hard to even explain until you`ve used it. The GHub software does help with this though as I did play with some of the settings within that so I`d highly encourage utilizing that to get it setup to your preferences. Then with battery life this thing is still holding up strong as I have yet to have an issue as the 140 hours advertised has held true so far though I will mention the USB-C fast charging is also a great feature to note.
There were a variety of positives with this mouse, but the one specific area that was a slight negative for me was the comfortability aspect as my hands are on the smaller side so this did prove to be an issue at times so if you do have smaller hands I would first recommend playing with the mouse in a store just to be sure it does work for you.
Overall though, even though the comfortability was an issue at times the positives far exceeded this one issue as every other element of the mouse from the aesthetics to the software and overall performance was exceptional. I would definitely not hesitate to recommend this mouse to anyone.

Customize your home theater system with this Samsung sound bar. The 1.5-inch tweeters and the 6.5-inch subwoofer deliver crisp, powerful sound, while the included remote control allows easy multimedia handling. This Samsung sound bar has Bluetooth connectivity for streaming audio files from compatible devices smoothly, and the wall-mountable design helps declutter your space.
 

What are the dimensions of the included soundbar bracket(s)? Any recommendation for position of the soundbar in relation to the TV (Q60T) such that the up/out projection of sound is not blocked by the TV if the soundbar is mounted to the brackets/wall.

The bracket is 2 feet wide and 2 inches tall. The manual recommends mounting it at least 2 inches under your TV, but I would recommend 3 as you would not want any sound reverberating off your TV when it uses Dobly Atmos.

The bracket is 2 feet wide and about 2 inches tall. The manual mentions mounting at least 2 inches below the TV though I would recommend about 3 inches just to be sure as you would not want to block the sound that reverberates off the ceiling when using Atmos.
