Could have been great but so so bad

This was my second version of this controller if you read my first review the same thing happened with this model. It’s terrible and the project reds to be scrapped and they should start over. The software is Beyond garbage and the hardware randomly stops working. I had to remap the controller multiple times and save the remapping as a new profile to get the hardware to start working again. This is not something that should happen. The software needs to be started from scratch. The hardware needs to be started from scratch or they just need to come up with some sort of solution to fix this. The price of their charging for this is absolutely ridiculous for something that should be premium. It’s really sad because the controller felt amazing in my hands. The layout was Great, but the overall functionality wasn’t so bad.

Geez wow I never start off like this but OMG did they mess this thing up. I saw the reviews and thought it couldn’t be this bad. It has to be a user error. Nope it's just bad. The software is terribly bad and the hardware just randomly stops working until you go back into the janky software and completely remap the controller and save it as a new profile. This happens more times than I can count and for that reason, this thing needs to be scrapped. The idea behind it was fantastic and the feel of it in my hands was wonderful but the functionality is bad.

Good replacement older version

I had the previous version of this backpack and used it regularly for years. It was a great bag and so is this one. I only switched to this version because mine finally kicked the bucket when the zipper broke but honestly, I have gotten way more use out of it than expected or should have. The new bag has plenty of room and good pockets for all your needs. It feels good and seems built just as well as my beloved old bag. Worth getting if you need a nice backpack

Nice mouse terrible software

Good mouse not sure it’s worth the hype it gets. Has a great dpi but price is higher than some others. Razer software is straight up bloatware so if you can find something else that would be a better bet.

Outstanding feeling keyboard with bad software
on March 15, 2024
Posted by: nickcal
Verified Purchase:Yes
Absolutely loved the feel of the keyboard. It is outstanding. The low-profile keys are heaven for me. I have such a hard time typing on a standard keyboard, but low profile keyboards I can fly on this keyboard has everything you need to get the best gaming or work experience done with ease. The only downside is Razer's terminally ill trash software. It's straight up bloatware and I would not ever install that garbage but unfortunately you can't do any of the mapping or RGB effects unless you install that or OpenRGB. For me that wasn't an option because OpenRGB causes my ASUS motherboard to flake out. If you're OK with their software, are you have a different way to control the features this keyboard is absolutely outstanding. They built the keys correctly. The switches are wonderful. Everything about it is great. The software is terrible.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Not what you see on the box that is for sure when I pick these up in the store, I thought man this is gonna be great. My keys are gonna shine through and it’s going to look stunning. I was wrong when I installed these on my keyboard, I found that not only did it show an extreme hotspot in random spots on my keys it Did not light up the keyboard the way shown on the picture and to top it off. They were about six keys missing from my brand new unopened box. I don’t recommend.

Poor experience

Tried to set this up and YouTube’s loading page kept refreshing and at some point it timed out when I entered the code again it said that it was already in use so I went to my YouTube channel and lo and behold. It didn’t take to my channel for whatever reason I went back to the page and tried it again and it said the code had expired. I’m assuming that this is just a glitch on YouTube’s end but I never got my code so I’m not worth it.

Made to be easy

Super easy to use. There is a pin inside so when you slide your wire in it has something to intertwine with the wire giving it a better connection these are wonderful. I highly recommend using them instead of just sticking your wire in your speaker.

You~ve purchased a high-quality sound system for your entertainment center, and now only one thing remains: putting it all together and achieving that perfect sound. Some would say it~s the most daunting part of the whole process, especially when a bad cable can make your audio experience fall flat.

And with 50 ft. of wire to work with, you~re sure to have enough to finish the job. Made with oxygen-free copper for crystal clear signals, Rocketfish wire supports the superior audio you deserve.

Way more than I needed for my project but the extra will last. It's sturdy 16gage wire the covering is stout and my speakers sound great so I'm guessing it's working as it should be.

Outstanding laptop full of power
on March 15, 2024
Posted by: nickcal
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've been on a Mac for 18 plus years so it was a shock switching to a PC. I wanted to make sure whatever I got would be powerful like my Mac but I needed it to be more for gaming than designing. I went back and forth on what brand to go with and in the end, my choices ended up being the Lenovo Legion, the Alienware, and this ASUS. Price is a factor but this time around I decided that I would go all out and get a specked-out machine as I wanted to make sure it would last for a long time. ASUS had the best laptop for what I was wanting. I knew the i9 14gen and the 4080 was a must. I would have rather had the 4090 but this laptop had the best bang with the 32gb ram and 2TB hard drive. The only way to get the 4090 in an ASUS was switching to the Scar and the spec difference in the two didn't justify the price for me. This 240hz screen is super bright and has a Beautiful color array all my games so far just looks stunning. I don't know what they're doing with their display or the software but they got it right. The laptop starts up extremely fast powers up when it needs to be. The battery is not the best. I'm used to extremely long battery life with my Mac. The battery life on this is actually pretty sad but it's a gaming laptop so it's expected it has a good amount of ports but I think I would've preferred a few more thunderbolt or USB-C ports as that's where everything is going the one flaw that I have with this laptop is its design. The hinges seem strong, but they're ugly. The body isn't bad but it's not sleek when you look at Apple laptops or razors laptops you can see what I'm talking about with a design even the Lenovo legion has a sleek design. Everybody's different and I'm sure people will find the design of the laptop to be stunning, but for me, it just sticks out like a sore thumb, but on the other hand, the performance justifies this weird look to me if you're looking for a powerhouse laptop that can play anything you throw at it and probably will be able to for quite some time at an affordable price. This one right here is by far amazing.
