Great sound for the price. Purchased one for the bedroom in our motor home. Plugged into the headphone jack on the tv and our tv remote controls the sound bar. Purchased on sale. Great purchase for smaller spaces like a spare bedroom

Purchased one for my son and one for myself and we both love it. They charge faster than I would have thought possible, and they don’t take up much room. They feel very solid and have a rubber like coating to protect the phone. It charges through my heavy duty otter box and my sons case as well. Very happy with purchase

Very Happy w/Purchase

Verified Purchase:Yes
First off, I researched for a number of weeks before making my decision and it came down to really one thing for me, the best sound for a reasonable price. I debated between the Jabra Elite 65t, the Apple AirPods, the Sony Sp700 and the Bose Sound Sport. The price for all of these models are with in $20 of each other so I was comfortable with any of the brands just based on price.
Most of my media consumption comes off my Apple products, so I was inclined to go with the AirPods initially due to the ease of use with my phone and iPad. Apple definitely has the best reviewed product, but it also has a rabid and dedicated fan base that tends to skew the ratings on customer reviewed sites.
All of my home sound equipment, most of my tvs and a couple of our gaming systems are Sony products, so I most definitely believe in their quality and value. I have a pair of their noise cancelling headphones, which I really like, so my heart was pulling for Sony.
I didn't know too much about Jabra outside of the fact that they make tons of good quality Bluetooth headsets for hands free driving.
Bose has always been one of those premium brands that I've heard tons of good things about but have always felt that were out of my price range.
After much debate, reading reviews, asking friends and co-workers and picking the brains of the Best Buy associates, I finally decided on the Bose. When I laid out the Pros & Cons of each they were all very close. With that in mind, I chose the one I associated the premium sound quality, and I believe that I made the right decision. The sound quality is fantastic with deep bass and a clear, crisp high end. The ear pieces are comfortable and easy to insert into my ears, but best of all they stay put once I get them in. The only knock I have against them is that they are pretty bulky when compared to the Sony and Apple products, The case is also larger and a little more difficult to carry in a pocket. Better suited to a book bag, briefcase or purse. However, the sound quality more than makes up for that in my opinion and I have actually forgotten that that I had them in after working out in the yard, they fit so comfortably in my ears. I didn't have any lag that others have complained about when watching a movie on my iPad. That may have been fixed with the update I had to download before using them, in any case, I don't plan on using them for video all that often, more for listening to music during workouts and while working on the laptop. I'm very happy with the SoundSport and I will definitely buy Bose again (assuming they are in my price range)

ASUS ROG Strix G15 Laptop: Game like a pro with this ASUS Strix G gaming laptop. The 8GB RAM ensures resource-efficient multitasking, while the 2.6GHz Intel Core i7-10750H provides enhanced power for smooth performance. This ASUS Strix G gaming laptop has RGB lighting and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 graphics card for quality visuals on the 15.6-inch Full HD display.
Which one is better in performance, frames per second, and other perks? This computer or the “ASUS - 15.6" Laptop - AMD Ryzen 7 - 8GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 - 512GB SSD - Fortress Gray”
Not a whole lot of difference in my opinion. The Intel chip outperforms AMD in most expert analysis but the difference between the two wouldn’t be very noticeable for most users. Safe bet is to go with the intel 10th gen 7 for the extra money. My son wanted that one because he considers himself a “serious gamer” (I wish he was a serious student instead) but I would easily recommend the AMD as well. Take the savings with the AMD and add additional RAM and a cooling pad (it gets pretty hot) and you won’t be disappointed. Both need the additional ram to play the more intensive games and it helps future proof it for at least 3 years or so. Hope that helps some

Does it get crashed? In review theyre saying it?
it hasn't crashed in since we bought it and my son uses it strictly for gaming. We did add another 8gb of ram so that may help. It does get very hot during his marathon gaming sessions but we have it elevated somewhat in the rear to make it easier to cool and it's never overheated or shut down
