Nice!

Posted by: HiFi80sMan
Verified Purchase:Yes
Comfortable, quality mouse that's perfect for travel or if you just like a smaller profile. Personally, the size is great from my minimalist set up, which also features the MX Keys Wireless Keyboard, which honestly, is the best keyboard I have ever used over the last 10 years.
Back to the mouse...it has a nice textured rubber on the sides, which is high-grade and very comfortable for long stretches. The sensor is also top notch and works on basically any surface. I use the RF dongle for work and Bluetooth for my casual laptop. It switches devices easily by simply pressing a button on the bottom. Scroll wheel is quiet, smooth, and can go from steps to "free wheeling"
The only con, which is not an issue for me, are the clicks are louder than I was anticipating. If you're looking for a quiet mouse, this is not it, but for any other use and most hand sizes, I recommend this.

Great Mouse, Light, Smooth
on January 1, 2021
Posted by: HiFi80sMan
Verified Purchase:Yes
Not only does this mouse feel smooth, but it also moves precisely. It's light, yet feels quality built. The secret sauce is the top-end optical sensor, which is basically what you're paying for. If you need absolute precision wirelessly, this is one of the best you can get. On sale for $20 off frequently, so I would keep checking back and price match if it falls within the return period.

Good, not Great
on December 28, 2020
Posted by: HiFi80sMan
Verified Purchase:Yes
PROS
*The materials and finish are excellent, especially at this price point.
*Easy to use.
*High-quality carrying pouch.
CONS
*1st pair had a louder right speaker than left. Exchanged for another, which had the same issue. Flipped the headphones around (R speaker to L ear) to make sure it wasn't me, the issue remained. Also, it seemed like the vibration was a bit stronger on the right side than the left.
*Really poor noise isolation. Although the ear cups are thick and dense, none of the other elements isolated you much from your environment. In a mildly loud area, it was just not good enough,
If it weren't for the imbalanced speakers, I probably would have kept them to use in semi-quiet environments, but the deal killer was the 2 pairs with the same speaker issue.

The Best Wireless Keyboard!
on December 28, 2020
Posted by: HiFi80sMan
Verified Purchase:Yes
Super solid feeling. Feels like a slab of steel with some light up keys. Low profile, yet complete without compromises. I was a bit hesitant when it was branded as something that allows for "fluid" typing, but it's true! I've never had so much fun just typing!
Whatever research they did on the human brain and how this can interface with it at an optimum level, succeeded!

Great Laptop!
on December 28, 2020
Posted by: HiFi80sMan
Verified Purchase:Yes
One of the best features of this laptop is the sharp, vibrant, bright screen. I run the brightness anywhere from 50% to 80%. The colors are great and can be calibrated further via Intel's Graphics Command Center. Also, although this is not an OLED screen, there is no noticeable backlight bleed or IPS glow, which is absolutely amazing for a non-OLED panel. This is running a 17" 16:10 ratio screen manufactured by LG, different from last year's 17.3" 16:9 screen, which I believe was an AU Optronics panel. Kudos to Dell for going with an LG panel, which is near flawless.
As far as performance, PC Mark score averages in the high 5300s, very close to Dell's own XPS 17 running Intel i7 10875H w/ GeForce 2060 Max-Q, which averaged in the high 5700s.
Although not a gaming machine, good for casual gaming on low-medium settings at 1080p for current titles.
Overall build quality is fantastic. All aluminum build with a full keyboard that has a great layout. Value/Performance is excellent and unless you're a gamer, the 11th Gen I7 1165G7 will serve you well. The added GeForce MX350 gives you that added pep if needed for casual gaming.

One of the Best TVs
on November 23, 2020
Posted by: HiFi80sMan
Verified Purchase:Yes
There's almost no negatives to this TV, other than the price (which has gone down quite a bit from the original MSRP). The X1 Ultimate Processor reproduces images a bit more naturally than the LG CX. Both have great panels (I believe both are made by LG themselves), but the image processing on the Sony is superior. The LG is still good, but when doing a side by side (picked up the CX from Target), the Sony looks slightly better. It's not a huge difference at all, but if you want to eek out as much from the picture as possible (especially upscaled content), you're better off with the Sony.

Great, Almost Excellent
on November 23, 2020
Posted by: HiFi80sMan
Verified Purchase:Yes
First of all, the build quality is very robust. These are great for any teen who may be a little rough with their stuff. Soundwise, they are nice, a little warm, with good oomph in the lower end. They are not kings of pure audio quality, but they are an enjoyable listen when you're in the mood for this type of signature. One buggy thing is the software will works well to adjust the light colors, however, the EQ does not universally apply to all sources. Mic seems to work well with no complaints on the other end.
As long as you know what you're getting, this is a great gaming headset.

Just OK

Posted by: HiFi80sMan
Verified Purchase:Yes
Sound is good. Surround approximation is actually quite excellent. Build is a little cheap for $300 and pretty much just mid-grade plastic. I personally had some issues with the stated range of 30m. I probably was able to get maybe half that and there were hiccups. I run normal music through my setup and wanted to use it when doing things around the house, but the range wasn't quite there.
Overall, for full price, I don't feel the value is there. They are currently on sale for $199, which is more palatable, however, the range for me was a non-starter.

Great Laptop
By HiFi80sMan
PROS
- Beautiful screen. Honestly, probably the best OLED screen I've seen on a laptop, especially at this price point. It can get bright. Great contrast with vivid colors.
- Benchmarks consistently beat baseline averages on all tests.
- I know some mention heat issues, but I've had no such issues using this in a typical home/office setting.
- Cool lighting system.
- Large, high-quality touchpad.
- Top-notch metal construction with a classic understated design.
CONS
- Fans are a bit louder than average, but by no means obnoxious. Use headphones anyway, so not an issue for me, but still worth mentioning.
- Glare could be an issue if you are in a heavily lighted area.
OVERALL
Got this on sale for $1,899. For that price and the specs, which overachieve, this is a fantastic laptop with a flat out gorgeous screen.

Great Audio
September 28, 2020
Another thing to add, is the sound card is incredible. It's a Realtek chip and simply identified as "Realtek High Definition Audio", but nevertheless, it makes my Audio-Technica MSR-7b shine!

From the beginning, the AERO series raised the bar of what a high-performance laptop should be; ultra-light, ultra-fast, with no limitations. Cutting edge engineering enhanced the end user experience by tackling the finer details, optimizing performance through calibration. The all new AERO evolves again from the inside out with an upgraded cooling system, refined aesthetics with an unparalleled visual experience, giving users the power to realize endless creative possibilities. With the AERO series, users can have lightning fast video or 3D rendering, or embrace smooth as butter gameplay of AAA game titles.

Smooth like butter
By jarjar
This is seriously pretty cheap if you do the price match. The 3070 has more than 100w in this model and 360hz screen is sweet. The only thing I would complain is the fan noise. The fan sounds like a desperate woman screaming. Overall, I would suggest this laptop, even though the performance is not Alienware’s strength, the outlook of this laptop is sick.
