AirPods Pro

Posted by: Mike
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is my third AirPods Pro. I have enjoyed every one of them except for the fact that the batteries start declining after a year of use. The sound is great and the ability to pair so quickly to my iPhone and iPad amazing.

Affordable Wide Angle Lens
on January 15, 2021
Posted by: Mike
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this lens for my Nikon D7500. The kit lens that came with it did not have a true wide angle. I love shooting landscape and other outdoor shots as well as family group shots. This lens fits the bill perfectly. The images are sharp and it focuses quickly and effortlessly. I also like its light weight and length.
The DX lenses are more reasonably priced than the FX lenses. I know that there are some trade offs respecting aperture capabilities but the camera’s sensor has excellent light sensitivity.
It’s a great buy.

Purchased on sale as a Christmas present for my son. He said "The 1.0mm actuation point is extremely noticeable. I barely press down and it registers to my computer. The keys feel and sound extremely amazing. I enjoy typing and gaming on this keyboard more than the razer green switches or any other ones that they have released."

Not Truly Wireless
on January 15, 2021
Posted by: Mike
Verified Purchase:Yes
Good add on to the sound bar(3.1.2 440watts Dolby Atoms SL8YG) I purchased a month ago. I bought it on sale and would ONLY recommend if its on sale. Not really worth the full price. These rear speakers definitely adds to the immersion. Beware of the wired that need to be used to hook up the speakers to the wireless receiver.

I bought this product to use with my laptop as I work from home. It works extremely well for teleconferences and voice-to-text writing. The built in microphone is very sensitive and translates voice very well to videos made for social media. The headphones are very solid and block out most noise while speaking and listening.

is the laptop holder adjustable?

Yes, You can choose not to install the bottom portion of the feet. The Best Buy photos show a metal footing on the right side and a plastic footing on the left. Those pieces can be left off and the stand will sit a little bit shorter.

My 30 year old Technics SA-GX303 died. I mainly used it with a CD. I am thinking to replace it with this unit. Can I? The Yamaha I was also looking at has an input labeled "CD". This one just says aux: 1,2,3.
