So far, after a week or so of use, these headphones have proven to be "OK". I wouldn't say they're great or bad. They're just OK.
Starting with sound, they sound pretty good. I'm no audiophile but these sound pretty good. On par with other totally wireless headphones I've used. I mostly listen to podcasts, though, so it's not hard to sound decent enough for that. I've had a single instance where one of the headphones kind of crackled a little bit but that honestly could have just been what I was listening to. It was very subtle. These have a slight delay in audio which might be a little better than my other paid of totally wireless headphones but is still noticeable. Watching videos can be annoying. Playing games, you'll hear the delay in the audio. It's not huge but it's noticeable so if you're looking for no delay, steer clear or maybe a firmware update can fix this in the future? Overall, decent sound (to me).
Battery is pretty nice for my needs. I only use these for about an hour to an hour and a half at a time every day at the gym so I can't really speak for how long a single session can last but I've never run into any issues with battery life. It has been about a week and I charged them (as in the charger case) for the first time today. The case is really nice as it has indicators for battery life! My only other pair of completely wireless headphones (Sony) does not have ANY indicator as to how the battery life in the case is doing so this is a very welcome change for me. Whenever you open or close the case, you'll see a nice green light on the bottom when things are ok. This changed to amber and after my last use so I knew it was time to charge. Take notes, other companies making wireless headphones with charger cases!
The app for connecting (for the first time) and controlling the headphones audio is pretty nice. Easy to use. A handful of decent features. I haven't used many of them but if you need to tweak things like the equalizer or sidetone (so you can hear yourself talk), it's not hard to find these options.
The fit. Probably the only reason I wouldn't give these 5 stars is the fit. I'm using these at the gym and to listen to podcasts that occasionally make me smile or laugh. This is relevant because when I smile or laugh, I now know the shape of my ear changes slightly and either the sound changes because the seal is partially broken or it feels like one of them is going to fall out. There's no wings or ear hooks or anything to keep these in your ear. The stock earbuds felt very loose in my ears so I switched to the large ones pretty quickly. These feel snug but they feel like they're suctioning into my ear so if that suction is broken, it feels like they're going to fall out. I haven't had a lot of mishaps, but I have had one of them fall out once on me at the gym. This may be something you don't have to worry about if you're not using them at the gym as sweat COULD be a part of the issue. I will probably continue to test the other side buds and see if I can get a fit that really works. But this seems to be one of the only downsides for me.
Connection is overall pretty good. As stated previously, there's a slight delay but this isn't different from my other set of totally wireless headphones so I'm not sure if it's just always the case. The buds are easy to connect for the first time through the app and they automatically connect to your phone when take them out of the case. There's even an option that pauses your media on your phone when you remove one of the headphones and resumes it when you replace it. I have had occasional drops in one ear that are very quick and not very annoying. The incredibly strange thing I've seen is, at the EXACT same place in the gym, the same ear drops completely until I move away from that spot. It's a very small spot but it's VERY consistent. It happens to be right at the water fountain so my ear drops for the entire time I'm getting a drink and comes back as soon as I move away again. Really strange.
Overall, these are pretty good headphones. The sound is good enough for me. The charger is really nice and gives me status updates on the battery level before my headphones die on me in the middle of a workout (looking at you, Sony). The app is good and the overall connection is pretty stable. There are a few downsides that I've noticed in the fit, but hopefully some testing and using different buds can fix this. I'd say pick em up if they're in your budget.

This Pixelbook could be really great for you if you need specific, limited things.
For starters, the look and feel of the computer are pretty good. Not Apple caliber stuff or anything, but it doesn't feel like a hunk of plastic either. It feels sturdy and heavy and like it's a real computer. One large downside for me is the bezel on the screen seems VERY large. I'm not sure if I'm just used to looking at screens that are a lot less lacking in the bezel department or if this one just happens to be that huge. My MacBook Pro and XPS 13 both have much slimmer, nicer bezels around their screen, though. Not a huge fan.
The one time the larger bezel did come in handy, a little bit, was when folding into "tablet mode". Having an area for your fingers to rest without actually resting on the screen is nice. That's where tablet mode niceness stops, though. This isn't a light machine. For a laptop, it's a pretty standard weight. When sitting it in my lap to use it like a normal laptop computer, it feels fine. When you fold it into tablet mode and have to hold it with one hand while touching the screen with the other, it feels very heavy. I wouldn't recommend this pretty much ever. Instead, you can fold the keyboard to face down and rest it on your lap. This worked well for me in the limited time I used "tablet mode". A minor issue with using it this way is, although I'm sure the keyboard is disabled, you press the keys a lot on the bottom of the system and it feels a little weird.
The main reason you'll want to use tablet mode is one of the nicer features for me. You can install Android applications and use them like you were on a tablet. I was able to install Hearthstone from the Amazon App Store (you need to enabled developer mode to install the Amazon App Store, but it isn't a difficult task) and it ran really well with the keyboard flipped underneath while using touch to control things. I didn't test many other android apps but you have access to the main Google Play store out of the box and any "unsigned" applications can be installed if you turn on developer mode. For a person who almost exclusively uses Apple products, having a device that runs Android applications (and is fast enough to run most anything you throw at it) is very nice for me. I'm not sure how useful it is if you already have a nice Android phone or tablet, though.
The ChromeOS is very limiting for me and the reason why I say this product is situationally great. The machine runs well and if you're only really using it to check mail, browse the internet, maybe touch up some photos (I haven't tested connecting a camera to it, but it is supposed to support them). ChromeOS is essentially just a Chrome web browser as the entire operating system (with some added bells and whistles that help store files and connect peripherals). Basically, if you need to run Android applications and almost exclusively use websites that you can access from any browser, this is probably a good fit for you. If you need to run Windows or Mac applications, you're SOL. I may attempt to install Linux on mine.
Bottom line, this is a well built machine that seems fast enough for any task you possible COULD throw at it, but most of the tasks you can throw at it aren't going to be super intensive as they will probably be web applications and android apps. If you're already familiar with ChromeOS and this is what you're looking for, I'd recommend this system.

These cameras were quite easy to setup. The box plugs into your router and you sync the cameras pretty easily and you're done. The app on your phone updates the base station and the cameras for you and then you're ready to go! Took maybe 20 minutes start to finish to have them all set up and receive video on my phone.
The wall mounts included are very nice. They're pretty small and they just magnetically connect to the back of the cameras. The magnets are REALLY strong so once you get them in place, you shouldn't have to worry about them moving at all. You can also use a standard camera mount to screw them into.
Battery life is pretty ok. On the best quality, lowest battery life setting, I got few days of battery. Dropping the quality to the more optimized settings seems to help quite a bit too. I prefer to plug in my cameras so I don't have to worry about them at all. This is where one of the downsides come in. The micro USB plug is buried in a pretty deep hole so you need to get a cable with a very small profile plug or it won't fit. I bought some really long cables and had to send them back because they didn't fit.
Video quality is good indoors. The night vision is pretty nice but the infrared lights are noticeable. It was actually an issue with our cat who wanted to attach the camera because of the lights when it was dark. So mount your camera high instead of putting it on a fireplace mantle! The app gives you options to automatically record when it detects motion or audio and you can either record for the amount of time that is detected or from 10-300 seconds. If you are unable to mount your camera outside, you probably won't have a lot of luck viewing your outdoors. The camera automatically focuses on the screen and motion detection doesn't work at all when it's viewing through the screen. Night vision doesn't work at all when pointing at glass for obvious reasons so if you need to watch your outside, you should just mount the camera outside.
I can't comment too much on the monthly costs as I'm using the free tier plan. I believe I get 2 weeks of recording storage. Not a whole lot more. They have larger tiers that allow for more recording storage. They also have "CVR" plans that do some continuous recording that you can scrub through on your app. That costs at least $100/yr for 2 weeks of CVR recording per camera. I don't think that's crazy so it might be good for you. I wish there was an option like the Logi Circle where you get 1 day of CVR for free.
Overall, a good set of cameras that have a couple of drawbacks that may or may not matter to you.

I've tested a lot of headphones but have never had the privilege of testing out some completely wire-free ear buds. I'm not disappointed with these at all. Aside from a couple of minor annoyances, they're really nice headphones.
The sound is great. I really don't have a lot more to say than that. For completely wireless headphones, they sound really nice. The noise cancelation also works pretty well and the app lets you adjust the "type" of noise cancelation you want. You can go for the "I don't want to hear anything but my music" setting (which is default) or you can go for a more of a "I like my music, but I want to know if someone is talking to me" setting. I've used these in the gym a lot and they do a pretty good job of blocking out the loud music playing at the gym even when I'm just listening to a podcast that's almost all talking.
That said, the one downside I found with the noise cancelation is that is makes the slight slippage that happens very noticeable. As I said, I use these in the gym a lot so it only makes sense that they move around a little bit. And I'm not saying anything bad about the fit. Both the small and large buds fit well (the large seem to fit me a little better, though) and I've never had one fall out of my ear. The issue is just that they do move around a little bit in your ear and, with the noise cancelation doing such a good job, when they move to allow the tiniest bit of air through, it's a lot more pronounced than other headsets that don't have noise cancelation. This is a minor annoyance. I have to occasionally readjust them in a quick second.
Battery life is another minor annoyance. The buds are supposed to last 3 hours or (with the battery pack charging case) 9 hours. This is a far cry from their closest competition. It's a minor annoyance for me because I don't have an issue charging them every couple of days. You might not love that. An additional note on charging, my desktop computer that I'm usually able to charge my phone or portable battery packs while in standby mode, apparently can't charge the case for these things. My initial review was going to be pretty bad because I was having a lot of trouble with them keeping a charge. It wasn't until I searched through the little instruction pamphlet that I saw there was a charging indicator light on the case (you wouldn't notice it there unless you were looking for it) and that's when I discovered that my PC wasn't charging them. They charged when I plugged them into one of my portable battery packs, though. This was another one of the minor annoyances. I felt like the indicators on the headsets and case were pretty cryptic and took some time to just "figure out". After I got things charged, I'm much happier. And one last minor annoyance while talking about charging. The charging case for these is gigantic. Not a fan at all. I have to remove the buds from the case in my car on the way into the gym and just hold them in my hand or put them in early because there's no way I'm lugging around the huge carry case/charger with me.
End of the day, I'd recommend these if you're find with the handful of minor annoyances they bring. They aren't deal breakers for me, but they might not sit as well with you. So just consider them when making a decision. Since most of my devices are Apple, I'd probably recommend the AirPods to myself but that's mainly just because I don't care as much about the noise cancelation.

I've liked Ninja blenders for quite some time because they're pretty heavy duty machines that do a great job but at a consumers price point. This one is another example. If you're looking for a blender to knock out some smoothies or frozen drinks, it'll take care of it. Looking for something to make for dinner? There's a pretty nice recipe book with a lot of suggestions. I, personally, really like it. My favorite thing is definitely the "auto wash" setting. Just needs a little bit of warm water and it cleans itself! My biggest gripe with most blenders is definitely cleaning up when you're done, so this is a super positive for me.
So, bottom line, if you want a GOOD blender and this is in your budget, I'd recommend it. It does a lot of things (possibly replacing your food processor as well) and is a breeze to clean up.

AR is the new "thing"! With the new AR frameworks in both Apple and Google operating systems, AR is really picking up steam. This little cube actually does some neat things even if it has some drawbacks.
For starters, the registration code thing is kind of weird and stupid. It's a physical thing but the app requires you to "register" it like you were proving you purchased it. I found this off-putting and would love to be informed on what the point was.
Another drawback is the lack of "free" apps. Testing this thing was tough to do because all of the apps recommended by the starter websites cost money. Some as much as $50. Most around the $2-5 range. I found the "Th!ngs" app which is a demo app with a bunch of little mini "things" to play with. Even if it was a little limited in functionality, it was a pretty good demonstration of what can be done with the cube.
Another small issue makes a lot of sense because you're holding this thing in your hands. The marks all over the cube are for your camera to read to find out how the cubs is sitting and where to draw stuff, so you will occasionally block some of the things the camera needs to see and the fun little thing disappears on you. Not much you can do about this as you naturally want to move the cube in your hand as it appears you're holding something else.
There's 2 ways to use this cube. You can use "VR Mode" with the merge goggles or just regular old AR mode with the included packaging/phone stand. I used the VR mode and would recommend this but AR mode is cool too. Depending on the apps your using, you hold the cube in your hand and your phone, with the camera on, tracks it and renders cool stuff on top of it. So it usually looks like you're holding something else in your hand. In AR mode, when you're looking through the phone on a stand, it has an OK effect. In VR Mode, when your phone is inside a pair of goggles, it does a decent job of making you feel like you're really holding that thing. I didn't try any of the paid apps but I gave all of the demos a shot in Th!ngs and some of these really showcase what can be done.
Bottom line, I think it's a neat little toy. Would work well for kids. If you have a GearVR or Google Cardboard compatible goggles, it's really cool to play with in VR mode.

I have an Oculus Rift and a PSVR already but I've always been interested in the whole "mobile" VR thing. These googles do an OK job of recreating what "real" VR is like. Not great. Not terrible. Just OK.
For starters, my iPhone 6S Plus was probably too large. It was able to stretch itself into the slot but it felt like it needed to be pressed down a smidge more than it would allow without locking the device (which would require you to completely remove the phone again to unlock the device). It was serviceable but I feel like a smaller phone would probably fit and work a little better. The google cardboard app is used to set things up. There's an included code you need to scan that's at the very back of one of the little pamphlets. I feel like this should have been it's own card and right up front as it's one of the first things you need. If you don't set up your viewer correctly, the buttons on top probably won't work.
The demo app was neat but just a demo. The big issue I had, coming from much higher end VR was the tracking rate. When you moved your head to look around, there was a lot of noticeable stuttering. This could be a result of an older phone, and I'm sure milage will vary by device. The frame rate was not bad at all, though. Again, it will vary by your device but the frame rate on my 2 year old phone was just fine when I wasn't moving my head around. This is the biggest issue that could cause motion sickness so it was nice that the apps were optimized enough.
Heat and battery was a little bit of an issue. You're encasing your phone in a pretty tight space and then running a graphically intensive application. This kills the battery fast and removing my phone from the goggles, you can feel the heat. I wouldn't recommend using this for extended periods of time without testing how hot things get first.
Overall, it's a decent VR device if your phone is good enough to run at a reasonable frame rate. This is novelty VR. You'll want a Rift, Vive or PSVR if you want REAL VR.

I'm a very persistent and technically capable individual. I'm a developer. I write computer code for a living. I have a network router that, when I had a cable technician come in to look at an issue, the first thing he said was "Well, we know it's not an issue with this router!". I say all of this to say that I'm not above troubleshooting and I know my way around networking products.
These cameras don't work. I was unable to get them to connect to my network after countless tries, resets, modifications, etc. After emailing support, I tried a couple of extra things that were suggested. Still nothing. I was told to call support to get further help and was given some other troubleshooting tips (mostly involving changing network settings that I really didn't want to change but did anyways. I have a lot of devices that have no issues connecting to my router) and at the end of it, the last solution she had was that the ! in my network password might be causing the problem. I told her I didn't want to change my password and she said that was all there was left to try. So after hanging up the phone, I changed the password to remove the "special characters" from my password and still no luck.
Both cameras do the same thing, so on the positive side, I'm sure it's some little quirk in my network that's causing this issue, but if they have an issue connecting to a top of the line router while I've never experienced any other issues connecting countless devices before this, I can't give them a pass on that. I'd love to leave feedback on the quality of this camera and other things, but I just can't. I was never able to see an image.
As far as I've READ about these cameras, I don't think I would have much use for them anyways. There is no way to passively record things like a security camera. You have to be logged into the app and hit the record button yourself and it record directly to your phone/tablet. There's no web interface for these cameras either. I would hope that would change in the future but those reasons alone make these cameras pretty useless to me.
Bottom line, you might have more luck connecting these to your network. I wish you the best. I did not have a fun week trying to get these to do anything at all, but even if I did, I don't think they would have been very great for me anyways.

If you're experienced with (or have ever used) any sort of upright carpet cleaner, the idea is pretty similar with this hand-held, spot cleaner but a little simpler. You just spray the area from the nozzle on the device (comes out of the front), scrub with the front scrubber if you need to, let it sit for 5 minutes, then just reverse over the wet spot to suck up the liquid and you're done. You can repeat if you need to.
Thats about it. Really. The one thing I didn't love about it, is you have to turn the power on the device in order to spray the spot. This turns on the suction vacuum, which is pretty unnecessary during spray time. A minor negative that's obviously just for simplicity. Instead of saying "turn on the sprayer power", they just tell you to turn on the power. I was a little confused the first time I hit the power button and the suction started, though, so that's the only reason it's a negative for me.
All and all, if you have pets that like to make little stains on your carpet, this is a pretty nice thing for taking care of the small spots they leave. Our cats like to occasionally throw up and our dog has a mistake every once and a while and this seems to do a decent job of cleaning them up.
Take control of your oral health with this Philips Sonicare DiamondClean Smart toothbrush. The microchip-containing brush head sends brushing data directly to your phone to ensure that each tooth in your mouth is getting proper care. This Philips Sonicare DiamondClean Smart toothbrush even tells you when to change heads to keep your brush performing its best.

I've been using premium Sonicare toothbrushes for years now. They always work great and do a fantastic job at getting your teeth clean. The different settings give you different feels that you really notice. There really isn't much more too it. If you want the best electric toothbrush out there, this is your best bet.
A couple of downsides, now. Connecting to the app with my new toothbrush (after having my old toothbrush connected before) was not possible. No idea how to resolve this. It's not that big of a deal since I didn't find the app to be all that useful anyways.
The new charging "cup" idea is really cool. You just place the toothbrush into the cup and it lights up and starts charging. The old versions always have a little peg you had to stick the toothbrush in in order for it to stand and charge. This usually wasn't an issue but occasionally, you'd spend a handful of seconds trying to line the two up. Now, it's just as simple as placing the toothbrush into the cup. You're done. This is extremely nice to look at and makes it very easy to charge. The problem I have with it, is, with each generation of toothbrush, they appear to be getting rid of any sort of toothbrush head storage solution. Years ago, they included a UV light case where you put your toothbrushes and shined a light on them for 10 minutes to disinfect them. Who knows if the light did anything, but there was a place to put your toothbrush heads (2 people use the toothbrush and it had 2 spots). The next generation did away with the light box and included a little attachment for the travel charger that would let you put your toothbrush heads somewhere. This was a step down to me so we kept using the light box since the charger was the same. Now, all you got is a cup. I would have really liked some sort of attachment for the charging part of the cup that would let you attach some toothbrush heads. Placing them in the cup with the toothbrush is really clumsy and you basically have to take everything out of the cup in order to place the toothbrush back in. I might just 3D print a new holder of some sort.
That's really the only thing I have an issue with. No real place to put your toothbrush heads anymore. We're using the detachable piece that came in the years old lightbox right now. Other than that, it's a great upgrade to an already great toothbrush.

I didn't test them out on an Android device, but they're bluetooth headphones. So if your Android device supports Bluetooth audio, they should work fine.
