Just Wireless 10' USB C cable

Posted by: JAXTECHIE
from Jacksonville, FL, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this cable to use in my vehicle. Why don't you 10-foot cable for my vehicle when I'm 18 in from the 12 volt port? I need the excess cable length to strangle whoever sitting next to me whining about my music selection. The cable works perfect for charging my phone. It's a non tangle chord which is nice. I can't attest to lethal capabilities of this cord as I typically warn people about it when they get in the car so they don't complain. I just don't get why people hate on my Barry Manilow mix.

Jaybird Freedom Head Phones
on January 27, 2018
Posted by: JAXTECHIE
from Jacksonville, FL, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was so mad when my GF bought these. They were $100 off at Best Buy (on sale). I own the X3 and paid $99 when they were on sale. She only paid $49 for hers.
I'm a headphone junkie and have owned $10-$700 pairs of in ear head phones. These headphones are really nice for wireless, sweat proof, active headphones.
These head phones are Bluetooth wireless and can sync to 2 devices.
The battery life is 4 hours but the charging clip acts as a battery booster which gives it 8 hours of battery life total. It seems to stay on OK but she hasn't done anything rigorous with them, like storm an embassy with special forces to rescue hostages. The charging port on the booster is a micro usb connector. The J3 has 8 hours of charge time and the charging clip is not a battery booster. Just so you can compare the 2.
These things are great if you like to misplace things. I had to hunt hers down twice since she bought them. Once they were around her neck and the other time they were in her truck. Jaybird has an AWESOME app which not only lets you set up a listening profile and adjust tones but also has a SEARCH feature that helps you locate the headphones if they are on or their last know location when they are off. I use mine all the time because I misplace mine constantly. I love it when I see where I am on top of the dot and the dot stays with me no matter where I am walking (because they are in my pocket).
There are 4 negative things about these headphones.
1. Very easy to misplace.
2. You can only make them go so loud. You can't blow your ear drums out listening to speed metal.
3. Ear buds are pretty expensive to replace and I have not seen any official OEM ear buds online. It's all after-market stuff You do get 3 sets of rubber and foam buds
4. If you have the synced to 2 devices (phone/tablet for example), when You are on a call with someone, the call quality is not as good.
Surprisingly when these are worn behind the head and shortened with the clip (the sporty or rockstar look) the mic and controls are behind your head off the left or right ear and the person talking to you can hear you perfectly fine. There are ear inserts, which I hate because my ears are sensitive and made from newborn lamb skin. They are supposed to help keep the buds in. The J3s stay in pretty good without them, even when I am storming an embassy with special forces.
The headphone angle on the Freedom is slightly different than the J3 and the profile is smaller then the J3. I can wear each one behind my head and in my ears comfortably no matter which way the headphones are aligned (Left/Right or Right Left). You can go over the ear or under the ear depending on which side you have going to which ear. It's more of a personal comfort thing.
These are not noise cancelling. You can still hear the idiots around you talking so you just have to pretend you can't hear them, unless they also own a pair, then they will know you are faking.
These are made by Logitech. Their support is awesome! I had a pair of J3s 'go bad', (fell in a toilet and there was no way I was going to put those back in my ears!), and after cleaning them off and putting them back in my ears........one side wasn't working. These are SWEAT proof, NOT completely water proof (but I have used them in a pool but not underwater). Logitech gave me an RMA and told me to keep ALL the accessories (charger, buds) and sent me the new pair first, then I sen't the damaged pair back (it wasn't a hostage exchange type of scenario, thats just how they do it).

Samsung 50" 4k 2160p Ultra HD Smart TV
on January 27, 2018
Posted by: JAXTECHIE
from Jacksonville, FL, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Holy cow! Where do I start? I can control this thing with pretty much everything; phone app (android), any of my other Samsung remotes from my other 6 Samsung TVs, Firestick remote, Xfinity X1 remote, the remote that came with it, and my favorite, making my kid go up and change the channel, which I had to do when I was a kid.
The picture is great. We have a 55" 3d Samsung TV that isn't 4k and is only 1080p (still trying to figure out what I'm going to do with additional 1080p from this new tv....all this extra 'p'.....
We use this TV in the master bedroom because the rest of the family is not worthy of this TV to put it in the main living area.
The remote on this TV is very different than the conventional Samsung remotes from older sets. It is almost identical to the Amazon Firestick remote in design, and can control the Firestick, as well as the Xfinity cable box. I wish Samsung would add a feature to mute the kids and sometimes the GF, or at least change the channel from Lifetime Drama to Comedy. We have like 18 different remotes in our bed because the GF has to have one near her at all times. Its like sleeping in a bed of bones. Sometimes I purposely use the bed remote for her side of the bed to change the TV and give her the 'whoops' when I fold her up like a taco.
I was definitely in button shock when I used the remote for the first time. I do miss the 100 buttons of the old remotes, not because I use them, but just knowing they are there so I can use them, even though I don't know what half of them do.
The apps and menu features are very easy to use. If you can't figure them out, you also probably don't own an ATM card. It integrates nicely with Xfinity and displays the TV lineup nicely. Netflix was already there ready for me to set up my account, which now makes the 123rd device with my Netflix account on it.
I haven't been able to run my gaming console on it because my GF has forbidden it (ruthless).
This is not an OLED system like the LG so the blacks are not going to be a true black but if I want a true black, I just turn the TV and lights off and then shut my eyes.
I can't think of anything else other than I have been very satisfied with all my Samsung TVs (Yes I actually have 7 throughout the house - I'm a TV hoarder and they say admitting to your addiction is the first step to recovery).

What can I say? It's OEM ink and it works, and it runs out just like all the other ones I buy. No complaints other than I wish the rest of the family didn't have to print everything in color all the time. Like can you just print it in monochrome and then look at it in your phone if you need to see the color? It's like herding cats sometimes.....

EAR Force Stealth 450, works with XBOX ONE and PC
on March 5, 2017
Posted by: JAXTECHIE
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought these for my kid because he bought his own gaming computer. I like the fact that I have to constantly put them on a charge because he forgets to. Actually I don't do that. Sometimes I like to turn them on to drain the battery on him and he has to play his games with no sound.
The headset has great sound. Volume control for mic and regular sound. There is a button on the under side of the ear to change different sound settings (xtra bass, etc). There is a a Bluetooth USB dongle that connects to the PC and I assume will also work on a PS4, so the headset connects wirelessly in that application. To connect to an XBOX ONE, there is a separate cable that attaches on the underside of the headset and plugs into the game controller.
The headset notifies you when it's turned on, charging, turned off, and it will also do an auto shutoff and notify you when it is doing a auto shutoff which gives you time to cancel it by tapping the power button. You will use this feature when using the wire connection. It always happens to me at the most inopportune times when I am playing Battlefield 4 because as soon as I take my hand off the controller, that is when I get shot. Slamming the side of my head against the wall or table doesn't seem to get to the power button :/
These headphones have noise cancelling. It's called turning the volume up. I can't hear squat when I have these things cranked. Like when my girlfriend is screaming at me to get off the XBOX. Unfortunately the same goes for my kid when he's playing. Good thing I have good aim with my controller, phone, or any other blunt object, when I need to get his attention.
For the price, its a great buy for wireless headphones. I would have given it 5 stars but the auto shutoff feature when I have it wired is really annoying.

OK, This is another one I didn't purchase for myself. I actually own the one for the PS3 so I can comment on this one. One of the best open world games I have played. Great to have if you are single. If you aren't, don't worry, you soon will be. I recommend signing up for the BestBuy Gamer's Club Unlocked for $30. Between the 2 boys and myself, I have saved about 5-10 times in that easy with the purchases I have made. Don't know what that is? Search it on the BestBuy page.
Back to the game...sorry for digressing.
Great graphics, immersive world. Still fun to play.

Roll the dice on this one!

Verified Purchase:Yes
OK, I'm not a huge fan of USB wireless cards for the PC or laptops but sometimes it's necessary. If you have to get one, I wouldn't get this one.
I have a little bit of experience in the IT world so I'm pretty confident in my abilities to put in a CD, let the software install, insert the device when told and connect to the correct SSID when prompted. I can even put in the network key without even looking it up (Dad, can you enter the network key in <insert device name here> for me - after about 50 times, you tend to remember things like that).
I had the PC 10' from the router and the PC my GFs son uses for gaming (brand spanking new Dec/2016) would intermittently connect to the network. No issues with game consoles across the house on the second story. I did everything from looking for newer drivers to testing on other devices. It is possible I got a dud on this purchase but it just solidified my stance on USB wireless cards.
I buried this one out in the back yard, rather than return it for a refund, to pay it forward for some other person who may possibly be the recipient of a 'refurbished' device that came from me. Whoever you may be, you are welcome! Feel free to buy me a drink if you ever see me.

Great protection for the S7

Verified Purchase:Yes
Ok, not going to lie. I didn't buy this. My girlfriend did. I wouldn't be sporting pink bling on my phone. I'm more of plain black case kind of guy. So if you have a girlfriend, and she likes pink and has an S7, I would recommend this case. It works. I have a tendency to swipe her phone of the counter or table to see how far I can launch it (and I blame it on the cats or the kids so please don't tell her!) and it hasn't broken yet.

Zagg Invisibleshield. Great warranty!
on January 23, 2017
Posted by: JAXTECHIE
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm pretty abusive to my phone because of my job and my son also has the 'best' luck when it comes to handling expensive electronic equipment so a screen protector is a must. I prefer the glass over the plastic because the glass is scratch resistant, unlike the plastic which tends to scuff.
The best thing I like about the ZAGG product is the warranty. For $5.99 in shipping and 2-3 minute process to do the warranty/RMA request online (recommend setting up an account on their site), they will ship you a new shield. This is a LIFETIME (non-transferable) warranty!
I have already replaced the shield on my son's phone and my phone since purchasing the phone in July/16. They send you the new shield and the envelope to send the old shield back (yes you have to return the damaged shield).

Enjoy up to 8 hours of listening with these Jaybird X3 wireless earphones. Their Bluetooth connectivity syncs with the MySound app to create custom sound profiles, and they're sweat-proof for use during intense workouts. These Jaybird X3 wireless earphones are 34 percent smaller than the previous X2 model for comfort even under a helmet.
 

IS ONLY ONE VERSION JAYBIRD X3 OR EXISTING NEXT?

The wireless 'wired' phones are X3 and Freedom. They also have ear buds that are completely wireless (left is not wired to right).

Does this headset work for Xbox 1?

I need a headset that works for Pc and Xbox 1 will this do it?
Yes, with the attached cable. The headset will warn you when it is turning off, I assume because it is on and not within range of the Bluetooth dongle that it pairs to. You have to tap the power button to cancel the auto shut off so 99% of the time it will be at the most convenient time and screw up that kill streak you racked up.

For a PC connection, it has the dongle you plug into the USB port and pair it. Make sure you go into your sound settings and select it as the default.

Are they noise cancelling?

If you have a good seal around your ear and turn the volume all the way up, you wont hear anything else around you.

Actually these don't have true noise cancelling technology like the higher end IEMs.

will this connect to a galaxy s6 that is in a vr headset that is not a big brand

It will connect to an Android device. The VR headset should be independent of the phone device and the controller works the phone. I use it on my Samsung VR but all the headset does is project the phone screen. The controllers on the VR device control the phone through the USB connection. The controller does it through Bluetooth.
