Wahl Bump-Free Rechargeable Foil Shaver
Very Well Designed Electric Razor!

The Wahl Bump Free Electric Razor is the best electric razor that I have used. It is the first one of it’s kind that I have ever tried and it is much more aggressive and capable compared to the old 3 circle type with a flat head. I have been using it almost exclusively just because it is so much quicker and easier to use compared to using a razor and shaving cream. It gets everything off really well everywhere except for some spots under the jawline. For some reason, I have trouble getting a really close shave in spots in that area. It’s not too big of a deal just not quite as good as a razor with shaving cream. Maybe over time, I will figure out how to do better there I am not sure. I know they said something about giving yourself time to get used to it if you are switching in the instructions. I am not quite sure if that means my facial hair my ability with the tool or both. Regardless, I am very impressed with this razor it is very powerful and does a great job for an electric razor. I definitely think that the design of it is superior to others I have used and just out of pure convenience I have picked it up to shave every time I needed to since I acquired it. One time last week I used a razor with shaving cream after using this to get the hard to eliminate jawline hair and to see if it would shave any closer overall. With the exception of getting the jawline hairs, I did not notice my face being smoother anywhere else. Whether you are looking to switch over completely to an electric or just want to have another alternative for when you are in a rush the Wahl Bump Free Razor is a great choice that is equipped with a slide-up trimmer built into the back that also works well and is easy to use and access.

The Galaxy Buds Pro True Wireless Earbuds are a very well-executed product with an excellent combination of hardware and software that is very well integrated. Not only that the features are well executed on the software side and the hardware stands out with excellent form and fit topped off with a great sound stage. I have many Bluetooth headsets of all types and forms and these Galaxy Pro True Wireless Earbuds are at the top of the pack in many aspects.
Starting off the fact that they are integrated into the Galaxy Wear suite with my Galaxy S3 Frontier Smartwatch is a wise move that simplifies and integrates your Galaxy phone very well with its counterparts developing a seamless system without losing any software features as well as providing a quality execution of the features. First of all the Galaxy Buds Pro Voice recognition feature is top-notch. It enables you to be listening to or viewing media and when it hears your voice it mutes the sound level down very low so you can comfortably carry on a conversation with someone. Then it automatically unmutes after 10 seconds of not hearing your voice. A second feature that I do have on some of my other headsets is ambient sound. However, the Galaxy Buds Pro headset lets you control the level extensively and works so well that I find myself having to turn it down at times. The touch controls for controlling media playback and answering and ending phone calls also work well and can be turned off in settings if you find yourself accidentally touching them enough to annoy you or you would just prefer using your phone or watch to control them instead. My experience with phone calls has been very good as well with crystal clear conversations. This brings me to the sound quality aspect of this headset it is top-notch however there are a few things to note here. First, the absolute best sound is with the equalizer set to normal, active noise canceling on and set to low. However, the sound quality in ambient noise mode is very good as well which I prefer to use at about the 75% mark while out and around others when I want to be able to hear my surroundings. You have the ambient sound slider under the noise control bar in the settings and then under advanced, there is a maximize ambient sound to further boost the ambient sound which is when it can get annoying at times unless you have significant hearing loss then they serve as somewhat of a hearing aid. There is also a setting to turn on or off notifications that just simply states what type of notification you received like email for example or text message or it will read the full content out with this option available in Alarm, Email, Incoming call, Messages and Missed Call. It also includes an option of whether or not you want them read while your in a phone call which I can not see that being preferable personally.
In conclusion, I would say I am very impressed with Samsungs execution with the Galaxy Buds Pro. My impression is that while other headsets have some of the same features that I have none of them have the amount or range of control found within the settings of the Wear app. Samsung seems to have put a lot of effort into getting these right. The one thing I did notice is that when I had them at full volume while using YouTube Music they would cut the volume back automatically when a song was hitting a high point like a singer topping out their vocal range. I did not find a way to turn this apparent safety feature off however it did not ever happen with the sound one notch down from full volume. Samsung to me really put forth the effort to make this headset worth the purchase price in my opinion. They have outstanding clarity and range in sound but I did find they can get bottomed out in some songs with a lot of bass even with the equalizer set to normal but only while at full volume with my phone’s Dolby sound setting turned on. Once again this was only while at full volume. I would highly recommend this headset to anyone that can afford the price. They are also getting included in some of the new Samsung Galaxy S21 phone package deals as well I believe so you could possibly go that route and obtain a set at a great value. Whatever route you choose to take I believe you will be very impressed with the Galaxy Buds Pro. You can tell a lot of effort went into every aspect of their production and I do not see anyone that attains a set being disappointed with their choice!

The Polk Magnify 2 is a great addition to your TV. I am impressed with this soundbar and wireless subwoofer system. I have a less expensive soundbar with a small built-in subwoofer that sounded pretty good but lacked a true low end. The Magnify 2 will give you a full sound stage that is crisp and clear with good separation. What it will not do is completely blow you away like a full 5 or 7.1 surround with a dedicated amp/receiver like some of my other systems have. I have several 5.1, 7.1 systems and a couple of soundbars. I am an audiophile type of person and I am impressed with the clarity of this Polk system.
First, the unboxing and setup was fairly simple following the instructions that it came with. I mounted ours to my homemade bracket under my TV that is wall mounted with a fully articulating TV wall mount system in our bedroom. This is the only way to go folks. It lets you point the TV and soundbar in any direction you want at the same time. We watch TV in bed and sometimes on a couch that is on the other side of our bedroom. With this system since bass is omnidirectional, it works perfectly. I was able to easily set up our satellite receiver, TV and soundbar on our Universal remote without any issues. Besides drilling new holes in the mount everything was fairly easy. Once all set up we began watching some TV and were immediately impressed by the new sound we had in our bedroom. My wife said it sounds like a theatre in here. I also connected to the soundbar with the Google Home app and it immediately asked if I wanted to sync with my SiriusXM service which I did. Additionally, I chose YouTube music as the default music streaming service since we have the YouTube premium service. With that, you can connect to the Google Home app and can jump into the YouTube Music app from there. You can also cast from other apps like SiriusXM by touching the cast button from within those apps. What I did find somewhat disappointing though is that there is not a full-blown Google assistant built into the speaker like I thought there was. You need to have a separate Google Home speaker to enable a fully functional google assistant and a regular Chromecast is still needed to cast pictures and videos. The built-in Chromecast is just for casting music. Which to me is still a great feature but you can just use Bluetooth to do that as well which works with any app or source from your phone while the Chromecast feature is limited to certain apps. The only issue we have had with it so far is it seems to automatically turn off after a set amount of time. I will need to look into that and see if it is something I can disable so it does not go out of sync with our universal remote and the other hardware in our system. We do not want to have to be using the soundbar remote to turn it back on all the time when are just taking a break from watching TV and have it paused between shows. Another thing I would like to see is an app that goes with the system to give me more control over the sound settings to fine-tune it more with an EQ. I also have read an article that stated there is supposed to be some wireless Polk SR2 speakers coming out for this system in January of 2021.
Overall, we are very happy with our new sound system it is a big improvement over our stand-alone soundbar that did not have a separate subwoofer. This system will give you a great soundstage and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a simple solution to creating a full range of theatre-like experience without having to run wires. Since the subwoofer is wireless and the Polk SR2 surround speakers that are supposed to be coming out soon are also wireless it is very easy to get set up!

Overall I am very happy with the performance of our Blueair-Classic 480i air purifier. My wife and I both vape and I sometimes vape heavy and it used to fill the whole room up with vape clouds. It would actually create a film on our dogs water bowl on the top of the water. Well not anymore with the Blueair-Classic 480i it can keep the vape clouds at bay on the high settings with ease and no more film on top of my dogs water. So these air purifiers definitely do their job especially if you choose the right size for your space. With that being said I am quite annoyed and think that the app's software is ridiculous in that in the year 2021 it is not capable of handling connecting to by wifi because of my mesh WI-Fi system. Most homes have gone to the new mesh systems and all of these smart products should be able to handle connecting to mesh systems. I even went into the Netgear-Orbi webpage and turned off the 5ghz wireless in an attempt to make it work since it only works with the 2.4ghz band and it still would not connect. Therefore, I can not control it with my phone which is disappointing. There is no excuse with the onslaught of mesh systems that the software of any smart electronic product would be unsuitable for connections on the 5ghz band. I even tried turning off the 5ghz band via the Orbi control center webpage and it still would not connect. I have some older Android devices set up for connecting to my smart gadgets but now I can not download the apps because they say my android version is too old and will not display the app in the store. The older software versions of Android gave you the ability to switch between 5gz and 2.4 ghz under advanced settings in WI-Fi! Overall, I am still very happy with my Blueair-purifier because it does a great job of cleaning up the air. My wife Amy and I can both tell the air is cleaner just by breathing it into our lungs and that is refreshing. I have also noticed there is no more film on top of our dog's water from the vapor more proof it is working well! I would definitely recommend the Blueair purifier despite its software implementation being out of date. They do a really good job of keeping the air clean especially on the high settings!

Filtrete - Standard Under Sink Quick Change Water Filtration System 3US-AS01 - White

The Filtrete standard under the sink water filtration system is a high-quality 3M product with fairly straightforward installation. However, I did have to improvise since I did not have or want to go buy an adapter due to a fitting being the wrong size. I was able to make things work by cutting off the end of a toilet water supply hose the end that connects to the bowl and then shove that up onto the copper tubing and secure it with a hose clamp. The system tucks away nicely and stays out of the way mounted to the side of the cabinet under our sink. The water tastes clean and pure to me right out of the faucet and I love the convenience of not having to fill up my water purification jug now. I have no water testing equipment but this filter seems to work well to me and is definitely worth the investment in my opinion. It is great to have purer water on hand to cook, make coffee and fill your pet's water bowls. I think this is something every family should have to minimize chemical intake from water supply systems!

Just like many others, I have quite a few wireless Bluetooth speakers at this point. That being said this Soundcore Flare 2 stands out from the others I have due to its awesome form factor and cool lighting rings at the top and bottom. On the back, you will find a flap that opens to reveal the USB C charging port as well as a button for pairing and one for Bass boost! On the top are the play pause in the middle then a volume - and + as well as the power button. The flare 2 has good sound for its size and gets fairly loud and that's coming from a guy that likes his music loud and clear! I also love the size of the Flare 2 and find it very easy to hold in one hand comfortably which make it easy to carry around and transport in my backpack. The Soundcore Flare 2 is unique and I find myself wanting to use it all of the time! I would definitely recommend it to someone that is in the market for a Bluetooth speaker this size and even as a gift to someone that does not know they want one yet.

I personally have been using two matching high-end 2k 27" monitors for a while now. However, I have been wanting to get my hands on a 4k monitor for a while now. I have to say I am impressed with this HP U27 4k monitor. I was not sure if it would look better than my other two but it does and it is about $150 less than each of the other two I have. This has me seriously considering buying another one of these HP U27's to replace the other two. Currently, I have it in a different room where I use it with my laptop which is very handy considering it is wireless. I can easily walk in the room take my laptop out of my backpack and quickly connect wirelessly with no issues. Not only that I have not even been able to tell the difference between wired or wireless. I found this aspect to be particularly impressive since I have not experienced any lag or screen degradation even though it is running in 4k. This HP monitor rotates on its stand moves up and down and tilts and seems to be very well built. Additionally, the HP U27 features an HDMI port a Display Port 3 USB ports as well as a headphone jack and another audio jack which is either a mic jack or a speaker out not sure yet. It also appears to have a spot to hook a locking cable into it. It has you covered on input and output ports for whatever you want to do. Another feature it has that is impressive is the built-in speakers which sound surprisingly good! I feel like this HP U27 4k wireless monitor is a great value! I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for a 4k monitor!

Adobe Premiere Elements has all of the features I am used to with more powerful capabilities. You can edit videos extensively make video slideshows out of pictures with music added to them with custom backgrounds and even create a slideshow video with a video combined. While it is a bit more complex than what I am used to it was pretty easy to navigate the software and get started creating a video slideshow from a recent trip we took as well as edit a video of our dog playing. It seems like there are a lot of possibilities with Adobe Premiere Elements. I also have Adobe Photoshop on my computer and I am not sure yet why I can not open either one from the home menu of the other it just offers to try the for free. It would be nice to tie them in with each other. I am really looking forward to becoming a Pro with this software and making a lot of media for the family to enjoy. I would definitely recommend it to anyone that wants to get serious about creating videos, video collages, video slideshows or even editing videos for YouTube! While there is a little bit of a learning curve if you spend some time with it you can create some great media and family memories to pass down and share!

The first thing I liked about the Power XL smokeless grill was the size of it. I cooked 4 good sized Rib Eye steaks on it at the same time. After washing the grill and turning it on it heated up to the set temperature of 450 degrees very quickly. The two steaks in the middle got seared nicely while the outside two were slower to cook. I ended up having to rotate the outside two to the inside. While this is a minor issue I would like to have seen the heating element evenly dispersed the full length of the grill. The smokeless feature definitely works well and it did cook the steaks very quick. I love the design of this product other than the heating element being a little small. Once I had cooked our steaks and we had enjoyed our meal I found that the Power XL Smokeless grill was very easy to disassemble and wash. Another thing I noticed is that the grill seems to have the best non-stick coating I have seen which made it very easy to clean off with just a long-handled scrub brush. I like that it has plenty of room to cook for the whole family and next I am going to cook some shishkabobs. I think it will do great with those and I also plan on trying some of the recipes that come in the cookbook. I am also thinking about bringing this thing to work at a construction site so I do not have to eat sandwiches every day. I would definitely recommend it especially now that I see it is on sale. It is a worthy addition to your kitchen arsenal that sets itself apart with its diverse capabilities large capacity and ease of use it sets itself apart from all of our other kitchen equipment!

I have experience with several mesh WIFI systems and the Eero is very easy to set up and worked flawlessly for me. I commend them on their app software. I also like that it has a built-in smart hub since I plan on adding smart devices to my network. The Eero is made to work with Alexa which makes it very easy to set up by linking your Amazon account during setup on the app which is great for people that are already owners of Alexa devices and in the Amazon system. So far the Eero system seems very reliable to me it stays connected well has smooth handoffs between eero's and lets you know during setup if your Eero placements are adequate which is very helpful for setting up a good network. It says for Networks up to 500Mbps but I was able to get over 500 on a newer laptop with AX wireless in the same room. We live in a 4000SF single-story house and it does not have any problem covering it as well as providing WIFI outside the house. I was able to get 65 down on my phone about 25ft away from the Eero on that end of the house and 16.1 further out in the yard connected to that same Eero. I also got 17.2 in the very back bedroom which probably 50ft away and through 3 walls from the main router in my office also with my phone. I set them up toward the other end of the house since we do not use the back bedroom and I wanted WIFI in the driveway and out in the yard on that end of the house. It would be beneficial to add another Eero to that back bedroom to get a stronger signal and WIFI around that end of the house in the yard at better speeds. If you are in a 4000-5000 SF home I would use 4 especially if it is a one-story home on a big lot. Overall, I am impressed by the eero system and would definitely recommend it especially for those that are not so Tech Savy for it's very straight forward and easy setup. However, with its built-in smart hub and Zigbee compatibility, it is also good for advanced users or those wanting to learn and get into setting up their homes with smart devices. It is nice to see a company offer good hardware and good software in their app which offers features such as a built-in speed test and the ability to see which Eero you are connected to and what other devices are connected to each Eero you have as well. For a 2 channel system, this Eero system is very competitive and it will give you good speeds as long as you space the Eero's well and are not too far away from them. I would like to see a little better range out of them, however. For that, I guess it is either add another eero or get the 3 channel Eero6 system. For the price of this 2-channel if that is what your budget is though I would say you can't go wrong and you could always expand by adding Eero's to improve your system!

The soundbar has a built-in amplifier so you don't need a receiver but if it has a digital optical out or hdmi output it should work.

Where can i hear this soundbar in your stores? Why do you say it doesn't work with firestick? Firestick is plugged into tv wouldn't it do a pass through? In that case what about the DVD player or the Cable box sound? Are you saying it won't work?
I did notice this was not in stock at my local Best Buy. I am not sure they set up to many soundbars in the store. However, I have this one and it sounds really good. It will give you a Theatre like sound and the built-in subwoofer sounds pretty good. You can also connect your phone to it with Bluetooth and play music. You can use any device you want with the soundbar that is connected to your TV. The soundbar connects to your TV via a provided digital optical wire or an HDMI cable. That means that any sound going into your TV from any source will play out of the soundbar. The hdmi cable will give you HDMI arc which will enable you to program your universal remote to control the soundbar volume. Otherwise, you will have to use the soundbar remote if you use digital optical. Since the sound signal is coming from your TV into your soundbar it will play anything that is connected to your TV including a firestick. They probably just meant you can not plug your firestick directly into the soundbar since the soundbar hdmi is just used for hdmi arc to get the sound signal from your TV.

screen goes dark when I try to read book. How to fix?
I have brightness display as high as it will go but, still, every time I open a book to read, the screen lights up for less than a second and then goes too dark to be able to read. How to fix???????
Soooo frustrating and the tablet is brand new. Thank you.

Start by turning off auto brightness. If that does not work then go in to display and wallpaper in the settings and uncheck adjust screen tone. You can also take it off adaptive display in Screen mode also in the display and wallpaper section under settings. This sounds like auto brightness is on to me though which you can turn off by pulling down the notification panel and unchecking it by the brightness slider or in brightness under display and wallpaper settings.
