Absolute beast of a machine.

I’m loving this laptop, I haven’t had a MacBook since 2007 or so and this is night and day. I’m still re-learning my way around macOS, but the power of this machine is more than I need, I haven’t even made the fans kick on. Very pleased with my purchase…so much I bought my son one as well. Battery life is amazing, screen is great, integration into the apple ecosystem makes me giggle, speakers are the best I’ve ever heard on a laptop.

Huge upgrade over my Honeywell t5. I use HomeKit and this one actually communicates with HomeKit effectively.
I love that it shows the humidity and can overcool to reach a humidity goal as I live on a body of water. So humidity is always a concern. The remote sensor is another great feature. Our house is much more comfortable with this thermostat. I definitely recommend.

Solid upgrade over my old watch
on January 28, 2022

Verified Purchase:Yes
Series 7 was a solid upgrade from my series 4. The battery life is okay. About the same as my multi year old series 4. The color is awesome. I really like the green band/case. The slightly larger screen is nice compared to the s4. Always on screen is a neat subtle feature.
I’m very happy with the purchase.

Not impressed with C by GE. My home is Automated with HomeKit. The C by GE lights performed so poorly I gave them to my son as he has zero automation in his home and wanted to see if they were awful. He probably gave them away or filed them in file 13.

Very good set of earbuds, Noise cancellation
on November 12, 2021
Posted by: BenRN
Verified Purchase:Yes
I really like these, the noise cancellation is good and I love how easy it is to toggle between cancellation and none. I've actually been using them to all but eliminate loud exhaust noise from my racecar, while still hearing important things. great for work, etc.
one glaring issue is the size, if you have small ears these are larger in ear than the OG airpods I used to have, and that may be a problem. They come with 3 sizes of silicone tips. I use the smallest. I can't imagine how massive a persons ear must be to require the large size.

Protect and enjoy your Nintendo Switch more with this Insignia performance grip case. It comes with two contoured and two smooth grips for a flexible, comfortable hold, letting you play with less hand fatigue. The slim profile of this Insignia performance grip case keeps it compatible with your console dock.

5 out of 5Reminds me of my old Sega Handheld.
By BenRN
Rewind 25-30yrs ago and I was playing a Sega handheld. This is like a newer version of that. Simple to use and loads of fun. I’m sure it has more capability than I’ll ever understand. Love that you can dock it and play on your TV as well.
Build quality is good.

I can’t read apparently.
July 13, 2019
This was my review for the switch itself. On the grip, it’s pretty awesome. I definitely recommend this grip to make the switch for normal sized adult hands.
One suggestion is when you’re taking the switch out of this grip. Remove the control pads then remove the switch itself from the grip. If you don’t do this you’re putting a large amount of force on the connection between the switch and the controllers.
