Very Nice Headset
on March 30, 2019
Posted by: Olive
from NY
This is my review of the Turtle Beach Elite Pro 200 gaming headset. My first impressions of the unboxing were great. The headset itself was packed very nicely and gave the feel that I was about to use a high quality product from Turtle Beach. I have been using the Turtle Beach Stealth 600 previously. The set up for the Elite Pro 200 was relatively easy and it was ready to go in minutes. The app you have to download in order to fine tune/adjust the sound is simple but takes some time to get it just right. The good part is that you can save your settings (I made specific adjustments for PUBG alone). This is my first wired headset and I really don’t mind not having wireless. The amp is ok but the adjustments are a bit difficult to get just right but I guess that is what the Turtle Beach app is for. It would have been great if the mic was noise canceling. My friends reported that the headset sounds great on their end. The sound quality is very good and is accurate as to where sounds are coming from in any direction. As for the hardware itself, the headset is very sturdy and feels heavy in your hands. When I am wearing the headset, it feels great. My ears do not get hot and I don’t feel much of the weight. The adjustable ear cups that allow space for eyeglasses works great. It definitely takes a lot of pressure off my face when my glasses are on. Overall it is a great headset but $250 is a little steep. $200 would be more reasonable that is why I gave it only 4 stars.

Great Camera with GPS and Rear View Camera
on January 13, 2019
Posted by: Olive
from NY
Pros
Provide wire clips to hide the connections 4 and a prying plastic tool for hiding the wires behind panels
Rear View camera with GPS capabilities
Software that is easy to use
Wi-fi capabilities which allows for downloads on the fly instead of removing the memory card to download videos
Supercapacitor instead of a battery
G-sensor for collision with auto lock for current recording
The software can show your location on google maps as you drive around.
The view of the rear camera is a picture in picture (wish I could choose which one to display on the LCD screen)
Software is easy to use, just open the program and click file: open and select the video. Not sure why the video when played in the software player is a bit blurry when it is also displaying map speed etc. but when expanded it is clear and when I check it from the saved file and play it through .vlc player it looks great.
License plates are very clear and can be made out easily in the daytime
Cons
The size is substantially bigger than other models, understandable since this has the GPS built in and allows for rear view camera connection.
The wire for the rear camera was very long! I have a Volkswagen Alltrack and had to tuck a lot of the wire in the roof.
Minor cons
No alcohol swabs and cloths provided
The software on the computer could use more attention. The player controls and video are not smooth. Not sure why there was no G sensor data when I opened my selected video.
Overall a nice vehicle camera.

Neat Portable Printer
on January 3, 2019
Posted by: Olive
from NY
I love having this printer readily available to scan all my receipts because I have a tendancy to always misplace them. I come home after shopping and scan my receipts and the printer has a feature that extracts the data and uploads it to a spreadsheet. This portable printer has the ability to recognize and extract data from receipts and uploads them to the included accounting software so you can expense your purchases. It also features the common scanning features that you find with a large scanner. You can easily scan, review and save important files. Its scans very fast and is extremely portable. I bring this with me on business trips just in case a copier or printer is not available. Its powered through USB connection. I use it to scan business cards, receipts and quick document scans. If you are looking for a portable scanner this is a must buy.

Modern Day Boom Box
on November 21, 2018
Posted by: Olive
from NY
This is a good, surprisingly powerful audio system. It fills the entire room with sound and supports several types of media formats, including CDs, USBs, and Bluetooth, all of which can be set up in a snap. The sound of the speaker is amazingly loud and clear, and its powerful bass manages to fill the room without distorting the sound (it also features a “Mega Bass” function, which can be enabled or disabled at the press of a button). I tried listening to several songs from every genre I could think of, and with the minor adjustments the speaker allows, they all sounded fantastic.
My only complaint is that the construction of the speaker, although lightweight, is rather inconvenient. It’s too large to set on a table, but also somewhat small to give a dedicated space on the floor, making it a bit awkward and cumbersome. It feels like there is a lot of unused space inside the speaker, which makes me wish for a slightly more compact build. But this is ultimately a minor gripe. The sound quality of the speaker more than makes up for it, and the karaoke functions are quite good too, allowing users to plug in a mic or any electronic instrument of their choice (as long as it has a 6.3mm audio jack to plug into the machine).
Overall, it’s an incredible sound system for the price and does not disappoint! Highly Recommended

NIce bodygroomer

The trimmer is excellent for grooming armpits, arms, legs and bikini area.
The shaver could possibly be the best one on the market for the price. I’ve read other reviews of people warning not to use it dry on your privates and I have no idea what they’re talking about. Like with all razors, if you’re reckless then you’re guaranteed to knick yourself. I’ve used this thing wet and dry (preferably dry) and have flawlessly achieved smooth unharmed skin.
The battery is my only real complaint. The trimmer seems to use a lot more energy than the shaver, so I’ve had to strategize which parts of my body I’ll shave first, given the almost certainty that when I switch to the trimmer I’ll only have seconds before it dies.
I can’t bring myself to buy a new one just because of a sketchy battery, it’s still a great functioning device when it wants to be. Despite this issue, I’d still recommend it. So enjoy your smooth silky skin but don’t act surprised if your battery conveniently dies right after the warranty expires.

Makes my computer run slow
on November 12, 2018
Posted by: Olive
from NY
Before you buy this read the reviews for the Windows PC version. Same thing applies -- you download it (after some effort), enter the product key (not the serial number, where's the serial number?) and then when you go to use it Adobe thinks you haven't purchased it and your only option is a 30-day trial.
Then I open a few jpgs and get that spinning beach ball. I'm used to using CS5 where I can open thirty or fifty jpgs at once, and it all happened fast. CS5 doesn't work since I upgraded the Mac OS to Mojave (OS 14). Going to try to go back to the previous OS and back to my Photoshop CS5 and just give up my $106.00 (with tax) as a lesson learned.
I want to save some other people the terrible experience and expense. By the way -- good luck trying to find any support from Adobe. The only thing offered is online forums.

Heavy Plastic
on October 30, 2018
Posted by: Olive
from NY
First impression when I opened the box and removed the accessories and handle I was disappointed because it seemed to be made of cheap plastic. I removed the vacuum from the box and it was kind of heavy. I attached the handle to the vacuum with the two screws provided, which was easy, and then added the attachments to their respective spots. Now I was ready to vacuum the entire living room.
The one thing I really liked was the retractable cord, but I wish it was placed higher up so I didnt have to hold it up so I dont run over it. I vacuumed the area rug and office and livingroom floor and I was impressed with the suction and how it picked up dirt and dust from the sides and corners. I also liked that it came with a spare fabreeze filter.
The vacuum came with a peteraser attachment and although it remove the pet hair, I had to go over the same spot a few times. Also when I pressed down a little harder the roller would stop but still suction. Its a useless tool.
When using any accessory the suction was strong that the vacuum would always fall over. When I finished vacuuming it was very easy to empty the canister. Overall, Bissell is known for their vacuums and I wish they would make a small powerful vacuum with accessories that remove pet hair. And is multi floor use. I gave it three stars because of the retractable cord and suction power.

Comfortable, Waterproof and Good Sound Quality
on October 7, 2018
Posted by: Olive
from NY
These Plantronic wireless sport headphones my be a bit on the expensive side but they're worth every penny. First, they are the best sport headphones I've yet had. They are imminently comfortable around the ear, made of a pliable poly material that can be worn for extended periods with ease. The ear pieces are likewise a snug, comfortable fit that will not tax the soft cartilage of the ear. Second, they stay in place though the most intense activity, exactly what I would look for in a sport headphones. There's no excess length of the type I've experienced with other wirelesses that might drape too long down the back of the neck and risk getting entangled with exercise equipment or just twisted up in my bag. The sound quality is outstanding -- warm base, clear articulation of instruments and vocals and as I also listen to audio-books during some of my activities, of the spoken voice as well. I'd go so far as to say that they compare favorably to some of the most expensive headphones on the market. The controls are integrated into the outer sides of the ear buds making for ease of control volume, on/off and advance/reverse features through tapping on the designed area of these buds without breaking your rhythm or stride during your workouts or runs. They also have excellent noise reduction, blocking out most outside noise; however, I always advice potential users of this kind of project to remember that superior noise-blocking also brings with it less awareness of one's surrounding, especially important to keep in mind if you use them where you have traffic or otherwise have reason to stay alert while running or exercising. They poly material is strong and promises long use, while the connection with a smart phone was quick and virtually effortless. These Plantronics are great!

Large Footprint, Cooks nice
on October 1, 2018
Posted by: Olive
from NY
Package arrived and it came in a large box. Upon opening I was pleasantly surprised, it was nicely made and solid. The instructions were pretty easy to follow and quick for me to start cooking right away. I dont have a lot of countertop space and felt this was a little to large for a countertop appliance. I know it will fit a 12 inch pie but if I want to cook a large pizza pie I would just use my oven. The reason for the 4 stars is because because of the footprint, but I am very impressed with how nicely the food came out. The chicken wings, mozzarella sticks, cauliflower pizza and hot dogs came out crispy and perfectly cooked and moist.
As far as maintenance is concerned I have to be on top of it, it is not a deal breaker. One last con is that it is a little loud, but overall I like it as a quick to use appliance when I dont want to pre heat the oven and start cooking immediately.

Awesome sound in a small package
on September 25, 2018
Posted by: Olive
from NY
First impression: Small with a rubberized outer coating the speaker is more portable rugged. The small rubber ring that is attached to the speaker makes it even more user friendly as you can hang it from anything like a bike handlebar or your dashboard or clip it to your backpack.
There is a rubber gasket to cover the Micro USB port (cable included) and the audio in port.
There are buttons for power, volume, play/pause, and bluetooth pairing. If you buy two of these you can set it up for stereo sound which is a nice option.
Sound: Basically, they actually sound really great, I was pleasantly surprised with the BASS, it was really very good.
There is no distortion at loud volumes and the speaker is very loud for the size and would be great for the beach or by the pool or at a BBQ.
Bluetooth setup: Hold the power button for 3 seconds and you are ready to pair it up. I used it with my NOTE 8.
Battery life: 16 hours which is better than the Beats Pill at 12 hours. It makes a difference and I appreciate the extra battery life.
Water resistance: It's not water proof but it is water resistant.
Overall, I really like this bluetooth speaker. It is very portable and has a long battery life and has great bass and it is water resistant too. Works great with my phone and even as a computer speaker. I brought my speaker to work and when i play it people are surprised on how nice the sound is that comes out of the little thing. Even though it is portable I leave it in my desk drawer. I really like this little thing.
