I have a much smaller (size and capacity) drive, but it was not fast enough to use on my laptop for gaming ( I run games off the external drive to make them portable). So I went on a hunt and found this gem. It is the size of a credit card and comes with both usb3 type A and C connections. This sucker is fast and shows no sign of slowing down. I moved my game over (over 18Gbs) in about 3 mins. A lot faster than my other SSD drive I was using prior. Like all good things you have to take the read/write with a grain of salt. Large files (movies and such) will transfer faster than a bunch of smaller files. this is due to finding, moving, registering and verifying each file. So you can see how a single file will be faster in this case.
Likes:
size, weight, portability, connection options, speed and pocket-ability.
Dislikes:
none at this time. Though I doubt I ever will.

This is a good, bad, ugly type of review.
Good: small, wireless, fits good in ear, easy to charge and holds charge while not in use very well, charging case is a bonus with about 2 full charges of power available for earbuds.
Bad: hard to set up as you can use them separately or together, which means of you only use one, the other will not be able to be used for stereo sound unless you return the other to the case and get it to sync again. I had to set up each earbud individually to get it to work in stereo. Earbuds do not fully seat in case with a simple drop. You need to make sure they are fully down, or else you will not be charging them (even though case is closed).
Ugly: The sound is ok, but not good. The highs are not really there and bass is no where to be hear. The mids stand out the most leaving you with a stereo mono sound. Also several frequencies will cause the sound to pop as it can not fully produce that sound with other sounds at same time. therefore listening to action, symphonic or rapid changing sound structure will not be enjoyable.
So if you need earbuds for your small kids to just hook up for long trips or do simple soundscapes on a app, these will work but not for music, lectures, or anything that needs a full spectrum of sounds to be heard clearly. Worth the price? sure, but not if your preferred mode of entertainment goes beyond audio books.

As the title says, it is a good monitor. Why only good and not great or fantastic? Well come along and lets find out.
Good:
Good size screen,
Thin bezel (making use of screen size),
Ambient lights,
Back lighting,
Custom display settings to fine tune your screen your way,
Vivid colors and contrast ratio,
and finally.. a stand that tilts and goes up and how (oh how I have missed this).

and finally.. a stand that tilts and goes up and how (oh how I have missed this).
Bad:
None standard power plug (uses round plug instead of normal computer/monitor "square" type)
None standard back of screen (connection area)
All connections are at a angle (shifted 45 degrees) so now cables come out sideways instead of down)
Screws on stand are not hardened metal and round out very easily.
Area to tighten screws are in small area making it very hard to get more then 1/4 turn each time, making it take a long time to assemble.
Heavier than screens of same size, so if you are mounting to desk arm support it might not work so well.
Mounting to said arm would require you to rotate support by 45 degrees to attach it.
Only accepts HDMI or Display Port connections.
Will only get 60Hz refesh if you use it as external display on laptop or secondary display on desktop. Must use as main to get full refresh and even then only if your card is newer than 2018.

Ugly:
Not overly stable on any surface except completely flat. it is somewhat top heavy, so balance will be affected placed on none flat or unstable surface.
no cable management to group cables. Only slot in stand is available and it would create a mess if done wrong.
Angle of connections might cause kinks in cables due to being set sideways for so long or breaking of port due to angle and weight.
Lastly, not at comment on product so much as delivery during the Covid19 pandemic. Shipping will be slow from factory during this time (took about 45 days to get it), so getting from retailer is best option for getting your monitor quicker.

First off, I have the 65t's as well. So I know the specs and how the 75t's have been an improvement. So here we go.
GOOD:
lightweight
comfortable
easy to use physical buttons
great battery life
excellent for phone calls
nice even "flat" EQ for my music taste (YMMV)
more compact charging case (as well as type C charging port)
google assistant works wonderfully.
BAD:
much smaller than 65t, therefore you must be care handling them as they are hard to keep ahold of
no ear fins so if you are "between" sizes of ear gels, so you might have problems keeping them in easily
if you do not keep the metal portion in contact with your ear, you will keep pausing your music or have it cut out
if you use the right earbud by itself (great option) then once you are done you must take both of them out so they will sync next time.
UGLY:
takes about 3-4 frustrating mins for the left earbud to stop going in and out before I can enjoy the majestic stereo sound. I have not had it cut out during long plays like other reviewers, but I have had issues with hearing with "hear through" turned on in a office environment.

This is the perfect size to take on vacation or business trip. Nicely spaced keys and not much is missing from a full sized board. Battery life will have to wait to see if it lives up to the rated life. But so far so good and have not had issues with the included batteries.
Pros:
Light
Nice key movement
No issues with connection or setup it up
comes with mouse and keyboard on same dongle.
slim design for easy storage and packing for trips or smaller places.
no skipping of letters while typing and keeps up with all my rapid fire backspacing (haha)
Cons:
Mouse works but flat design hurts my hand after awhile. I can't use with my hand flat so I end up with my hand "floating" above it while in use.
Keyboard is not lit and letters are not pure white, so anything other than a well lit room has been a issue.
Keyboard does not have a on/off switch. So like most wireless keyboards it will go to sleep to save battery. Issue is if you put in backpack or the like. It will keep turning on every time the keys are hit.
Dongle storage area is very tight and you almost break it to get it in. It is only two little plastic fingers that seem to be ready to snap off.
Keyboard battery area is easily dislodged and has come off a few times during transport.

straight out the box this was perfectly color corrected for my needs. Easy to set up, and if I need to take it apart it will be just as easy. Does not go up and down, but I never needed that feature anyway. I love the almost bezel-less screen as it gives me a non distracting view of my games.
Hooked up to HDMI and the picture is sharp, the colors are bright and the darks are dark. I noticed that with my 144hz video card that this monitor keeps with the near perfect framerate that I am use to with the laptop screen. All I can say is I wish I get one sooner, as this has made game play much more enjoyable.

this was a nice addition to my roadtrip gear. hooked it up to the aux port in my car and played with no repeating for almost a day. love the fact that I don't have to go through some funky music program to get the songs loaded or have them converted to something I can't play with anything else. Great sound and very small. I like the size since I can put it in my pocket, jacket or dashboard and not have it taking up precious room.
would recommend to anyone that does not have a MP3 player or just needs something light to go with them to the gym.

First off I am techie, so I know somethings do not work exactly like advertised all the time. So here is my review:
1. got coffee, unpacked the airfly and got ready to finish the coffee while I waited for said device to work.
2. sipped the coffee and before I could put the cup down, the Airfly was connected to my bluetooth headset and I heard music (angels singing Hallelujah, or something like that).
Now on to the reason you are reading this.
1. unit is small and very portable. which I like
2. it recharges quickly and comes with need cables ( you must supply your own "phone" brick)
3. easy to understand directions and pictures about setting it up.
4. once connected, I got as good or better audio than I get from my laptop or phone.
5. comes with carry pouch (velvety) 2 cables (audio, charging) and or course the Airfly unit.
All in all I was impressed with the size, charging, connection, audio and portability of this. I have not tried yet, but I assume it is a one connection at a time situation and can not be shared (headphones) with another person.
I highly recommend this to anyone that travels a lot and wants to watch movies/programs on the plane via bluetooth headphones. The uses are limited to only planes, trains and automobiles. You can subjectively connect any audio source with a 3.5mm audio out plug to this and go on your wire-free way.

First off I have been looking for a wireless charger since I got my battery case for my android phone. I never wanted to guess on such things as type, model, make, voltage, and etc. Well now I do not need to.
Got this out of the box and within minutes I was charging my phone with out the need for cables hanging everywhere or in my way. Just set it down and watch the magic happen. Although I do have a rather beefy case battery, so charging is not as quick as if you have a bare phone. But since I only charge at night or after a long call/text session the charge time does not bother me.
Easy to understand lights
Simple setup
Easy to hide cables behind something since you do not need to plug anything else in.
All in all, I am happy with my charger and will be looking for a compatible case for the wife's phone so she can enjoy the ease as well.

Rarely do I give 5 stars for a product. But this time it is a must. I have had older versions of this headset (x2) and they were great. But, when I got these, I was blown away to say the least. Yes it has a long battery life is quite comfortable to wear. I love the custom soundscapes you can create/share/download to make them audio perfect for anyone. Best part is that once you load the right sound for you, the headphones remember it when you switch to something else (phone, media player, computer) so it is a win/win for me. I love the braided cord as it does not stick to the back of my neck when sweating during exercise. However, with all great things there is a but... well the cords are good length for either under ear or over ear placement. BUT it is barely long enough to close the earpieces together and feels like a choker. With the adjustable cord cinch you would have thought a few extra inches would be expected. All in all I am happy with them and the long battery life that comes in handy during long travel.
Also remember that this has its own charging cable that is not universal. So remember to bring it with you when you travel or on long trips.

Will I be able to use my gear s2 with the pixel?
I have a Gear 2 and it does not work with it yet. when changing phones it will have to reset your watch and reconnect. The issue I have is, the watch can connect to the phone via bluetooth but can not be seen in the gear manager. I suspect it it is due to the app not being updated to work with a 7.1 phone. I hope this does get fixed soon, however it is a Google phone and it is a Samsung watch. So no one really guaranteed it would work together. In the past the watch only worked with Samsung phones.

In most cases yes. However since a lot of people want it, you will find it sold out quite a bit until the first few weeks hype dies down. But keep looking and be ready to travel to a few locations before you find one available.

I currently have the Netgear NightHawk router. Will this be better than that, and should I get rid of that one?
keep the router if you need to use the usb for hard drive, printer, etc support. But I hooked mine up just strictly for the printer since the ORBI just blew the nighthawk out of the water with the wifi speed and range. I can now cover my whole apt with one unit and with the satellite hooked up I can get wifi almost half way up my block.

Q I am looking for1 Orbi router and 3 Orbi satellites for my big home, since Netgear is not giving the option to buy satellites individually ,will I be able to order two boxes of Orbi and be able to use one of Orbi router as a satellite ,? interchange
each set is already "synch'd" with each other and just requires a simple button press to join them. However I have heard that you can buy extra satellites soon and once you do, all you would have to do is hit the sync button on them and confirm the M.A.C address with the control panel for the main router. I will tell you from experience with "repeaters" that once they are connected it will give you wifi and it will be decent, but the speed will be cut in half of that of the main unit. That is just how it works in the real world. However since the wifi is quite fast and has large area of coverage you will most likely not notice that difference from a older router speed .
My wifi is running at 850Mbs and satellite runs around 500 Mbs, but since my older router was only pushing 300-400Mbs I did not really care since on that end of the house it was just tablets, phone and such that were maxed out on speed anyway

Will this prioritize devices like some other routers do?
I have the router and have not found the ability at this time to add options for priority. I have in past used keywords like "world or Warcraft, ftp, or Skype, to add to the router table but this only has multi-media enhancements for streaming audio and video. Since this is still new and with the bonuses it has already for speed and coverage, I would assume this option will be made available in future firmware/software updates

can i use this with photoshop 6
you can use this for what ever program you would use a mouse for. that is what it is really. However since APS is working with Wacom you will get the rated pressure sensitivity in the program and any other drawing/art app that supports pens with pressure and not just a pointing device
