Meet Pixel 9 Pro with Gemini, now in two sizes. It has a sleek, stunning design, and it~s the most powerful Pixel yet. Take pro-level photos and videos with the triple camera system, and make expert edits. And it~s engineered by Google, so it gets the best of Google~s AI first.
Posted by: Closingracer
I have the Google Pixel 9 Pro Obsidian color 128GB model here. This is the 6.3 inch display Pro model.
I have owned various Google Pixel phones in the past like the 1,7 pro and 8 along with various Nexus devices as well. This is my favorite Google phone so far. I love the smaller phones personally for this phone Google has featured AI a lot in this device. With the Pixel 9 series Google replaced Google assistant with Gemini although if you would like to revert back to the assistant you can as well. For this phone they have upgraded the Ultra wide and selfie cameras with a 48 mp ultra wide and a 42 mp selfie camera. The new cameras take some great shots especially when there is plenty of light in the picture. Some of the biggest gripes with the Pixel devices the past few years has been overheating and bad signal from the modem. From my experience I haven't experienced either. The phone uses a Vapor chamber for the Pro models this year and Google has a more aggressive management system for the Tensor G4 where it throttles the performance so it prevents from overheating. I also haven't noticed any issues with wifi or cellular using this phone on my home wifi and Verizon network. Google also promises 7 years of security and feature updates and this is a premium looking device it would do well for the next 7 years.

I had the opportunity to try this out and glad that I did. I have been using a bigger battery pack that uses 2 USB C ports and a USB type A port that charges at 140 watts max 24,000 mah nice to use for my laptops and phones multiple times. This is a 5000 mah battery that uses Magsafe or Qi 2 charging standard (I'm not sure since there is no reference for it) either way it's the same I guess. This charges your phone at 15 watts wireless and also wired with the USB c port which is also used to charge the device. This is nice to have when I don't want to carry my other power bank.
Inside the box:
The battery pack
Manuals
1 inch or so USB type C to type C cable
The battery pack
Manuals
1 inch or so USB type C to type C cable
The device connects to your Magsafe compatible device like your iPhone or a case for your phone. It is pretty strong but I wouldn't just be careless because it will come off with enough force. The device also has a ring on the back that rotates so you can use it as a stand as well while you're charging your phone which is nice. As far as charging the phone wireless I don't notice a lot of heat which is attributed to the graphane being used.

Best Samsung Galaxy watch so far
on August 13, 2024
Posted by: Closingracer
I have used various smart watches in the past from Samsung, Apple and Google and this is the best I've used on the Android side that's for sure. This is an LTE connected smartwatch which means you can sign up for a cell plan which connects to your phones plan so you can leave your phone at home and take it out and have service for phone calls, texts and GPS for like Location services without bringing your phone with you. This is a 47mm case which I find a tag big I prefer a smaller watch like the pixel watch but I like the durability of it so it's a trade off.
Specs
Sapphire crystal glass
Samsung Exynos W1000 SOC
Titanium frame
32GB of storage
2GB ram
Sapphire crystal glass
Samsung Exynos W1000 SOC

I have used other recent watches with older Exynos chips and the battery life was mediocre. After using this for about 5 days I can tell this will last longer. As far as performance goes it's snappy. I am using the default watch face but there is plenty to choose from in the Galaxy gear app. I am using this with a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. This watch can detect workouts fairly quickly and end them quickly as well which is nice if you don't start one manually. There is also a new action button as well which I set up to start walking exercise workout and that's great they added it. As far as workout monitoring and etc I find it accurate enough no complaints

Great first gen AI Laptop
on July 25, 2024
Posted by: Closingracer
I have the opportunity to try this Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 out and overall it is a great laptop if your looking for a premium device for productivity like Web browsing, Microsoft Office apps like Excel, Word, Powerpoint and etc. One of the biggest weakness for windows for window laptops in the past has been poor battery life. Intel powered ones were just horrible or underpowered and AMD powered ones were better but still was lacking compared to the newest MacBooks with the M chips. The early adoption of ARM chips with Windows the apps were lacking. Even more recent ones like the Qualcomm 8cx Gen2 chips the chip was ok and the support was ok the laptop's I've seen were more of the budget kind and the power didn't work well with traditional apps that still use X86 and not native to ARM
Specs;
13.8 HDR 3:2 Aspect ratio LCD Screen with 120hz and 600 nits of brightness ( reported)
16GB of LPDDR5X RAM
512GB SSD
Qualcomm X Elite SOC X E80-100: The middle variant of the X elite chip
13.8 HDR 3:2 Aspect ratio LCD Screen with 120hz and 600 nits of brightness ( reported)
16GB of LPDDR5X RAM
512GB SSD
Qualcomm X Elite SOC X E80-100: The middle variant of the X elite chip
The thing with these new Co-pilot + pcs are the min specs are 16GB of RAM and 256GB SSD so you know you'll get a decent amount of RAM in the base model if that is all that you want. Plus with the Surface laptop you can upgrade the SSD with a 2230 sized one if you want so you don't need to pay the premium for the bigger ssd if you don't want to. I have been using this for a while now and the battery life is better than what I have gotten compared to other Intel/AMD powered general purpose premium laptops. I mostly been using this for web browsing, youtube,netflix, and some very light gaming. The games are older so not gpu intensive at all. The GPU in this computer is lacking compared to the integrated ones in intel and AMD chips but this isn't meant for gaming or like intense video editing. As far as the apps that run native on ARM like Microsoft Edge the battery life and experience is great. I have noticed apps like discord is kind of sluggish but this Prism emulation is new so we need to give devs time to make their apps ARM native
Now onto the Copilot part of this computer. They did remove the recall feature as of the writing of this review. Though if you sign up for the windows insider you can try it out I believe which is basically a beta. I have tried the live translate and the co create in paint and its nice. The live translate would be great for Video calls If you both don't speak the same language or in videos like youtube even. The Cocreate is nice as well you can make some nice pictures of what you tried to draw or make.
Conclusion: I do hope Windows makes the effort to keep on working on Windows on ARM with them and their partners because it is the future. The better battery life with ARM chips and the power we can get from it is great for portable devices.

Great multi display option
on July 22, 2024
Posted by: Closingracer
I had the opportunity to try this out and i am amazed by how great it is. If you need a multi screen setup this is great if you don't need a bigger screen option. You get two more displays that connect basically side by side of your main display which means its great for semi portable setup. You won't be using this on a train ride or something but if you want to go to the cafe or something with it then it is portable enough to use it.
Comes inside the box:
The device itself
1 USB C to USB C short cable
1USB C to USB C long cable
1 USB C to USB C cable for power only
1 USB C to HDMI cable

I used it on my Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 13.8 and my Macbook pro 14 inch. The panels on this are glass QHD resolution, 14 inch, 144hz refresh, 500 nits of peak brightness, 100% of DCI P3 color space , IPS, and low latency of 3 ms. You also need to download an app to use it with your laptop and they have one for windows and Mac as well.It helps sync your brightness levels to your main display if you want along with other features.
As far as using it as an display I find it a tad darker then the display on my Macbook pro but it is good still. I wish it got a tad higher brightness to be the same as my Macbook.

I’ve never used a standing table before until today and after looking into it and trying it myself I can see why people would want one. Setting this up is easy and you don’t need any other tools then what is included inside the box. I set it up myself but I would suggest 2 people to make your life easier. If only counting unboxing it and setting it up it only took about 30 minutes or so for me. As far as a general desk it’s nice build and I feel would last a long time. The desk says it has a limit of 144 pounds and I feel like the desk could carry that much weight but I don’t want to try that out myself. What’s great is the desk is great to sit at as well I was worried it would be higher than usual. But you can control it to be as high as six feet or something close to that. Having a desk that you can stand at can help with posture and if you’re sitting down a lot like if you’re playing video games a long period of time the ability to raise the desk and still play while standing easily is great. You don’t have to hurt your back.

Great controller for your phone
on July 2, 2024
Posted by: Closingracer
I have seen other manufacturers make these kind of controllers for a while now like the Backbone one I've seen that has the PlayStation white and buttons. They were nice looking but at the time I didn't have a PlayStation 5 and I rarely game on my phone besides candy crush and games like that. Anyways this controller for your iPhone is great. Also comes with an app that acts like an aggregator of other apps you can use this controller with. No subscriptions or anything for the app. I've tested this with two iOS games StarWars the knights of the old Republic 1 and 2 along with PlayStation remote play with my PS5. Playing with it for like an hour or two I got used to the control layout and it's nice. Responsive. Nice to have the Hall Effect sticks so there shouldn't be an issue with stick drift with the joysticks on these at all. The device also comes with a USB A to Type C to charge it and they say you get about 16 hours of battery life with it. I knocked down a star because I feel like they should of made it compatible with Android phones as well. Weird that it isn't because it's Bluetooth.

Rank Up to a New Level of Control. Insanely responsive, and immensely customizable, the Turtle Beach Vulcan II TKL Pro Magnetic Mechanical RGB PC gaming keyboard delivers pro-level performance in a compact TKL form. Equipped with analog hall-effect magnetic switches for silky smooth, reliable key presses rated at a 150M click lifecycle and they have a fully adjustable actuation point from 0.1mm to 4mm. And with Rapid Trigger setting, you~ll have better, more precise movement control, with less downtime between key presses. Lastly, the per-key AIMO Intelligent RGB lighting, five on-board profiles and adjustable actuation points can all be customized using the Swarm II desktop software.

This keyboard from turtle Beach is surpisingly good. Ikn ow turtler beach for their headsets more than anything els. But this keyboard is great. I came from using a different kind of TKL gaming keyboard but this beats it. The keyboard has their typical gaming stuff like RGB colors in zones. This being a TKL keyboard which means it's basically a full size keyboard but doesn't have the num pad. This also features Rapid triggers as well which means you don't have to fully reset the key before pressing it again which is nice. I mostly play Role playing games where I doin't need it b ut it's useful for the few games that it does benefit from. As far as the kerys goes I love the feel of liner switches over clikcy or tactile because you don't have that clicky sound or the tactile feel of each press which I find annoying myself. My only minor gripe about this keyboard is the typing experience with it for typing out stuff like this review but that could just take some time to get used to the layout.

Sonos headphone doesn't disappoint
on June 2, 2024
Posted by: Closingracer
The Rumors of Sonos making a pair of headphones was so long I didn't know if I would think I'll ever see them but here we are in 2024 with a pair of headphones from Sonos. These are Bluetooth Active Noise cancellation headphones first and a swap to the home theater system second. For right now it supports Arc but more support will come later.
As far as the contents of the box you get
The headphones
A case
USB type C to Type c
USB type C to 3.5 mm plug
The headphones
A case
USB type C to Type c
USB type C to 3.5 mm plug
The type C cable is able to plug into your phone to listen to lossless music as well as charging the headphones.
As far as the headphones goes it has ANC which I would say is pretty good not as good as the top tier ones but pretty close to it. As far as sound goes these sound better than those headphones in my opinion. They have physical buttons unlike some ofhers which is my preference.
The slide for volume controls is also the button you use for play, pause, skip and etc but also to swap to your sound bar at home and it's quick to set up in the Sonos app. This puts a home theater sound around your ears so this way if you're trying to be quiet around you and head your movie of TV show. Quick and easy button to switch to your headphone or sound bar.

Whether you~re the go-to DJ in your crew or a curator with the best playlists, the Bose SoundLink Max Speaker is the ultimate party starter. The stereo sound and deep bass turn good times to the max, letting you feel the music from your head to your toes. And with a trendy removable handle, you can take the party anywhere. Water and dust-proof features mean it~s perfect for a poolside, beach, or rooftop hang. And when someone spills a drink or you run into unexpected showers, it never knocks the vibe. Amp up the party even more when you link two SoundLink Max Speakers. Choose Stereo Mode for left and right channels, or go for Party Mode for the biggest, boldest sound. Thanks to the epic battery life, you can keep bumping the playlist for up to 20 hours*, so the party can start in the day and carry on through the late night. Phone battery is running low? The USB-C port has got you covered. Power up from the speaker~s built-in battery. Get yours in Black or Blue Dusk.

Good speaker but ok in the price range
on May 8, 2024
Posted by: Closingracer
This is the newest Speaker in the Bose Portable speaker segment and is a great speaker with a few issues.
Inside the box:
You get the speaker itself
Manuals
USB type C to type C cable and AC adapter
You get the speaker itself
Manuals
USB type C to type C cable and AC adapter
As for the speaker itself it's easy to setup you on Android and iPhones. This speaker as far as I know is the first product that supports multi link so you can have two phones connected to it at the same time and switch between them both. The only problem with this is that it has no microphone so you can't use it as a speakerphone. Also this supports snapdragon sound so it supports Apt X adaptive but not the older apt x. So you can get only AAC, or SBC on the major Android phones out like Samsung or Google. Of course you can only get AAC on iOS devices so this isn't an issue if you own an iPhone or iPad. Onto the battery life they say it has a 20 hour battery life and about 3 hours if you blast it. I like that Bose gave us that number as well . As far as sound goes it gets loud and the bass is decent . I wouldn't say it gets a ton of bass tho .it's also IP67 rated so you don't need to worry about bringing this outside though.
.my issue with this speaker is the MSRP of $399. I have heard speakers that just sound as good if not better for under $200. At MSRP it's hard to recommend this speaker unless you don't mind the premium for the Bose name.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The sound quality is OK but for the cost, it should be magnificent. Also the buttons controls don't control very much. Again for the cost, I should be a able to a answer calls, play/pause music, skip tracks, fast forward and remind as well as change the volume... I expected more for the money.

Waiting for them to mail out the replacement is ridiculous and not at all customer friendly! Because your iPhone screen is totally unprotected while you wait for their replacement!!! This is why I would not recommend it to friends!!! Too costly and time consuming and a huge inconvenience and hassle! I hate the way it is set up!!!

I have had this product for about 3-4 days and absolutely love it! its super thin and portable. It has a great keyboard and overall really fast machine. BUT the only thing that bothers me is the color. Only reason why i gave it 4 stars. I am actually thinking of returning the item and repurchasing once different color options become available. I just feel the current color is fit for women rather than men.

3 out of 5Great attempt by HP, but battery is dismal!
By Doug
I waited months for the lightest and thinnest 13" laptop with a Intel core i7. It has many terrific features; size, weight, awesome display, keyboard, etc. But for my uses, the negatives are too much to overcome; TERRIBLE Battery life (I have turned off Bluetooth, turned down display brightness, using power management settings, etc.) yet I am lucky to get 2.5 hours of web surfing and streaming of Netflix! Charging cord is long and bulky for travel. Audio is crisp and clear, but volume is insufficient if there is any background noise in the room at all.
I guess it is back to MacAir; as much as I wanted to get onto Windows 10. Extremely disappointed in HP's claim of 9 hours of battery life. Do they not test their prototypes out first?

While battery life with my MacBook pro is better This isn't that bad... I got around 6-7 hours with it and I was streaming Netflix and web surfing pretty much. A lot more than turning off Bluetooth, lowering brightness can affect the battery life. Low wifi signal can be an issue, high cpu usage and etc. I would also use it for a few days and see if its the same issue.

3 out of 5Great looking laptop, horrible battery life.
By byubangal
Laptop is one of the best looking laptops you can buy but the battery life is horrible. If you are running bluetooth, wifi, and your screen is bright; you WILL drop battery life at the rate of 1% every 3 to 4 mins. I've never seen a laptop drop power so fast. Other than that, laptop is great but I will be going back to Spectre 360

Well duh ... You shouldn't leave your laptop at 100% brightness and have Wifi and Bluetooth on the whole time unless you need it.
