First off, I'll start this by saying I have used a plethora of earbuds recently trying to find ones that felt just right in my ears. I've been using the very original Galaxy Buds, coming up on 3 years old now because they just fit right, but the sound quality has been drastically going down , cutting in and out.
In the last 3 months I've purchased the three latest earbud models from the competitor of the Android/Google world.. Returned all. All of them either fell out out my ears, were extremely uncomfortable and painful ( the pro true wireless from you know who) or the sound quality wasn't as great as I expected for the brand that was always known to have the best sound..
I was very excited when I saw the Google Pixel Buds Pro announced and the design. It looked like they were going to be just what I needed and sure enough, they are. These are extremely comfortable, very light weight and doesn't cause me an pain.
The sound on these are awesome, I am very impressed with the ANC and EQ. To me, it is a perfect balance of treble and bass with neither too overbearing or obnoxious.
Multi point works great. I've tested going back and forth to my Pixel 6 Pro and IPhone 13 Pro Max and it switches between both where I left off once I open up Spotify on either in my testing. No need to repair or go to bluetooth settings to ensure they're connected. It's pretty seamless which is very nice and convenient.
Transparency mode is good, but I wouldn't say great. I can hear myself better, but if someone is next to me trying to talk to me, they're still pretty hard to hear.
The noise cancelling is phenomenal and blocks out/washes out the noise around you so you can ensure your enjoying just your music.
I love the touch controls. While they may be sensitive, they're a great feature and something a lot of other brands are lacking.
The microphone is amazing for calls. One of the other issues I've had with other wireless earbuds. Spoke to my wife while on the treadmill at the gym and she said she heard me crystal clear and sounded great. I was very happy with this feedback because I always had to disconnect my phone from any headphones I was using to take calls due to microphone issues.
All in all, I am extremely satisfied and impressed with these. I am looking forward to some updates to fine tune things even more and make the experience even better than it already is, but at early launch I really can't say anything bad. Google hit a homerun with these and they came at just the right time for me when I was in desperate need for new headphones.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The premium Pixel you have been waiting for. The design itself is very unique and gives you that standout feel. It's not the typical boring design we have been seeing from phones over the years. Google really added a lot of thought into its appearance from inside and out, hardware to software.
Which is where I will transition into software to go deep with this review. Material UI (AKA Material You) as Google likes to call it. Because it is just that, an extension of YOU. From the widgets, to theming the icons and dynamic colors you can choose, you almost spend the first 30 minutes on the phone just messing with all the different themes you can come up and colors you choose depending on the wallpaper you select. I really like how integrated the personalization is with Materia UI and Android 12 as a whole. It feels very immersive. One of my favorite minor updates I love is with the widgets. A lot of them were refreshed with a more simplistic cleaner look. The clock and weather widgets along with many others really add to the Material UI theming integration.
What does everyone know Google best for? Search. We have grown spoiled with being able to go to Google.com and search for any and everything. They now have given you that spoiled feeling with ease of search on your phone now. With a swipe up from your home screen you can start typing in the search bar for things like Apps, People, Settings and it will start filtering to whatever it is you are searching for. If I type “Fantasy” it’ll show me all my fantasy football apps I have as well as search within other apps, like Reddit for the fantasy football sub reddit I am subscribed to.
While having an in-display fingerprint unlock option is nice and matching tech of others flagships, I feel that google had a great spot with the fingerprint unlock being on the back in previous generations, your finger would just always rest naturally on the back where it was. This is still great to have however. My one recommendation for when setting it up is set up the same thumb multiple times. Having 2 to 3 profiles with the same thumb, in my use, allowed for much faster response and recognition.
I love this screen. The colors pop, it’s bright and it is buttery smooth. The 120hz refresh rate on here just...feels different from other phones I use. When I say different, I mean better. This feels smoother than any other 120hz screen I’ve used so far.. And with the LTPO Technology allows it to adjust to lower the refresh rate as low as 10hz to save battery. Speaking of battery, it is also pretty good on this phone. You should be able to get a day to a day and half, depending on your usage. I am heavy user and I could get a full day out of this with typically 6-7 hours of screen on time.
Google seems to have put a lot of focus in remembering that, even with all the bells and whistles this device has, that it is a Phone after all. Google has added a lot of really neat features here with their calling assistance software. From assisting with wait times when you call a business to avoid a wait, to directing your call where Google Assistant will transcribe automated menu options for you. But my favorite of the features is the hold for me. Nothing worse than when you call a place only to be put on hold for who knows how long.. Well, Google has added this option where if you are put on hold, Google will wait in line for you and give you a call back once the place you called takes you off hold. No more tying up your line or holding your phone for 30 minutes or more waiting for someone to assist, Google will handle the waiting for you!
We all know that Google is king when it comes to voice typing and translating, but the new Tensor chip takes this to another level. It's faster, smarter. Live translate is really great for those who work in an environment where they deal with a lot of clients/customers who speak different languages or have language barrier. Fortunately, I don’t face this issue in my everyday life, however I did find myself using this for the first time thanks to my 6-year-old. She had told me that a girl in her class was speaking differently to her parents. I used Live translate to say things like “How was your day in school today? “And used it to translate to different languages to see if my daughter recognized one of them. I am sure it all sounded confusing for her, but seeing how it worked in real time and how useful this feature can be was really cool to experience.
Now, I think it speaks for itself based on Googles history with the Pixel line, but once again the cameras continue to shine here. Google has given you a lot of flexibility here with the camera, from hardware with the 4X Optical zoom, Ultrawide selifies, the 20x SuperRes zoom to all the other software features. I’ll bring up my favorite here which is Magic Eraser. This tool will allow you magically erase whatever unwanted subject/object that might ruin a rather otherwise perfect shot. There are many other modes to mention but I won’t go into detail. Motion mode, Face Unblur, Real Tone. Google has given a lot to work with here. They have definitely stepped up their game in the video camera department as well. We have 4K recording on both front and rear cameras here, Live HDR+ Video and Speech enhancement. Speech enhancement is definitely noticeable. This really allows you to bring focus, regardless of the noise surrounding you, to the person you are recording or if you are recording yourself and what is being said.
You have a lot of other added benefits here, with personal safety features, Anti Malware and Phishing protection, as well as more transparency with the privacy dashboard. There is just a lot of great benefits here that you wouldn’t expect in the software until you really play around.
All in all, this is by far not only my favorite Pixel to date, but favorite Android phone to date. Google has hit it out of the park and I know it can only keep getting better with updates and feature drops.

This is my second Roccat product. I decided to get the Syn Pro Air wireless headset due to how much I enjoy my Kone pro air mouse I have from this company. I had a previous gaming headset before from a company with 3 letters in its name that I wont mention. I had high expectations for those but not even a year has passed and they no longer work right. I've had friends complain about how bad my mic quality is and no matter what I did nothing seemed to fix the issue. Eventually the mic just stopped working via bluetooth and for some reason only worked wired in. Thus, here comes Roccat to the rescue.
First, upon placing this headset on my head, I noticed a significant difference in comfort level. Not only are these much lighter than my previous headset, they are way more comfortable and softer on the ears as well as being compatible with my glasses. Gone are the days of me constantly adjusting my headset or glasses to try and limit the pain. I am please to say that these were greatly designed with those who wear eye glasses in mind.
The build quality on this is outstanding and they are visually attractive to look at as well. The RGB lightning is an exciting touch and my kids become mesmerized while daddy gets some gaming time in just by looking at the lights. The headset was extremely easy to assemble out of box making it ready to use in no time.
Mic quality is fantastic from what friends are reporting. My wife was watching a show on the TV and my son was on his iPad sitting in the seat over and I was told they didn't hear anything but my voice coming through the mic clearly. We were all in the living room and I received no complaints of loud background noise.
Audio quality is superb as well. I primarily play Call Of Duty Warzone and I was calling out enemies left and right by the sound of their footsteps. I felt way more immersed in my gameplay with this headset thanks to it audio.
Battery life seems as advertised. You can get up to 24 hours of use on a single charge and based on my usage that is very obtainable. They charge fast as well and I am happy that they come with the standard USB-C for charging.
As someone who is new into the PC gaming world and new to the Roccat brand overall with this being my second product from them, I really can't say enough good things about them. I look forward to continuing to pick up products from this company for all my PC needs. I don't think you can get a better bang for the buck that checks off all boxes in the performance, comfort and style department.

First thing off the bat is how incredibly lightweight this mouse is. I was blown away. I actually had to adjust my mouse sensitivity settings due to how much quicker I can move it compared to my other mouse I was using. I have no issues at all with connectivity either. It was a seamless connection with no disruption in the wireless portion. I do like that you have the option to wire it in as well.
I had carpal tunnel surgery two years ago so comfort is a big thing for me as far as hand placement goes. I am happy to say that the ergonomics of the mouse provides fantastic comfort and placement. The alternate buttons on the side are perfectly placed and not a strain to reach for.
The clicking/responsiveness is also top notch. I mainly play Call Of Duty Warzone and the performance of the mouse along with the responsiveness of the buttons brings a much better aim/shooting experience and feel that it gives me an advantage over my previous mouse. I can't even go back to my previous mouse. It feels like it weighs 10lbs compared to this one. It's just such so smooth to use and always awesome to look at. The illumination is really vivid and adds an awesome visual.
I'm very glad I picked this mouse up. I really don't think you can get a better mouse in this price range. Roccat really hit it out of the park with this.

I grabbed this Filtrete purifier due to some issues we have been having in our bedroom. Lately my wife, my son who sleeps with us and even myself would always be coughing and congested in our room, with my wife dealing with the worst of it going through terrible coughing fits. Our cat has been spending more time in our bed and I think its caused a little bit of an issue for us . Our bedroom has always had a dry not clean air quality too it for some reason, even after we replaced carpets.
This purifier in just a week of use has proven itself to be worth it. We haven't coughed at all or dealt with allergy congestion since plugging it in. My wife who like I said, had the biggest issue lately, has not gone through any coughing fits since. The air in our room just feels cleaner, with a crisper air smell to it and easier to breathe in. My son has also not been woken up by any coughing fits either. The coughing wasn't illness related either as this has been an issue in our room for years but it only recently got worse because of our cat making his way on the bed more.
I've been really impressed with it, the design of it is clean and the Filtrete smart app is simple to monitor and use as well. I like that it shows the air quality not only in your household but in the area you live as well. This also had to be probably the easiest plug and play type of products I've ever bought. Setting it up was less than 5 minutes and was absolutely smooth.
The fan isn't too loud either and is a pleasant white noise actually. I think this is a great purchase for bedrooms, isn't intrusive or in the way and has a great overall design that doesn't make it an eyesore to look at .

Let me start off by saying that, I am not what you call a pro PC gamer. Matter of fact, I have not played PC gaming in many years. However, I am a big Call of Duty Warzone fan and it is pretty much the only game I have been playing on console. I do want to begin venturing into more PC gaming now that I have this, but Warzone was a primary reason for my purchase as I have heard that PC gamers have a competitive advantage over console. That could not be any more truthful too. The fluidness of gaming on this is unlike anything I have experienced. For reference, I have an Xbox One X. This laptop exceeds my expectations and Asus has really hit it out of the park IMO. This is everything I was hoping for out of a laptop of this size and it has not disappointed.
I really thought it would take me more time to adjust from console/controller to keyboard/mouse, but the transition was pretty easy once I knew what keys did what. Using a mouse to shoot/aim in a shooter game like this is lightyears better than my console experience. The graphics are SO CLEAN! Everything is so crisp and smooth I really cannot believe how much power is packed in this thing. The frames show no stutter whatsoever and I have everything maxed out for graphics settings on Warzone. It is absolutely amazing the difference between FPS and latency when I compare my experience to gaming on the Xbox. I really feel like I have done myself wrong by not jumping to a gaming pc like this sooner.
For someone who is not so fluid with the gaming vocabulary and language, I can appreciate what Asus includes here. The Armoury Crate software I personally find especially useful as it makes it easy for someone like me to understand and in a way “ do the work “ for me . So far, I have been satisfied with the systems default options in the software. I think for someone who is a beginner into PC gaming and is scared they might not understand what to do or the best settings to tinker with, this laptop is a great start to ease those nerves and fee comfortable.
This is my first AMD powered device as well. I’ve only ever owned Intel based products but from my research I gathered, AMD has come a long way to the point where they are preferred for gaming, which also had a part to play in why I chose this specific laptop.
The 144HZ FHD screen is a beauty. There is absolutely no reflection on this screen either and it’s so sharp it puts my 4k TV’s in my home to shame. I was worried with the size for gaming but it honestly is the perfect size and is ideal because I feel you are able to focus completely on the ratio this screen offers VS looking around and moving your head so much on something bigger ( I’m used to gaming on a 60inch .) I think I spent more time looking at each corner of my TV than I did finding enemies because of how big it was. This has changed that for me and has made the gaming experience even better. I feel more involved than ever before as it’s just all right there in front of me without any strain.
The laptop does get hot initially when playing, but it seems to find its sweet spot and settle in. You can hear the fans, but it is not that intrusive. I was using Turbo mode while playing, but changing it to silent mode and instantly everything goes quiet within seconds. It's actually pretty neat how quick the armoury crate works it's magic. I also like that you have the ability to use your phone to adjust settings as well.
The fingerprint reader works fantastic as well. In general, the keys are great, probably the best feeling keyboard I've ever typed on. Extremely tactical and well raised. The trackpad is top notch as well. The hardware inside and out is extremely impressive, this is one beautiful laptop. From screen quality, gaming quality, sound quality and build, I really find it hard to compare this to any other laptop in it's class and price.
One negative thing I'd say is that I wish it came with an ethernet adapter. Now, initially I had concerns when I saw this wasn't included as the WIFI in my home isn't the best, even when I'm right in front of my router. My Xbox is hardline in because of it. I was really worried about lag when playing online but, I'm not sure if it just speaks volumes to how powerful this laptop is or if it picks up my WIFI better than other devices, I experience zero lag, even when I was on the 2nd level away from my router, I had no issues which I'm really happy with because now I don't have to confine myself to the basement to game.
When I asked some of my gaming buddies about the NVIDIA RTX3060 and if it would be sufficient enough for me, they all said I'd have no issues, and were even surprised a laptop of this size had it. They were right though, as this graphics card has provided me with an experience in Call Of Duty that I have never had.. The details it offers blows my mind and I really can't wait to test out its other capability down the road.
Everything loads insanely fast. I'd watch streamers playing Warzone and always wondered how everything loaded so much faster vs console and now I know first hand what that feels like. Within a full day of use, this laptop has made me feel like a true gamer. I'm very excited to use this and transition more and more away from console gaming to this. I have no doubt in my mind that it will handle everything I throw at it.
For those in the market for a superb laptop that has everything you need and more, look no further. I don't see how anyone could be let down by this beast. For anyone who is like me and was scared to take the leap and not sure if it'd meet or exceed expectations after spending most of your life on console gaming, do not hesitate to buy. This has opened up a new world of gaming for me that I'm excited to expand on.

So, with the pandemic going on and uncertainty of gyms staying opening or closing, I decided to start investing in some home options in the instance the gyms were to ever close down again.
This is where the JAXJOX Dumbbells. For one, prices of dumbbells became inflated during this time we are in. The amount it would’ve cost me to get a few sets of dumbbells made no sense when you can have an all in one option like these. These are 15 dumbbells in one when you consider all the weight adjustments you can do with them as a pair. The amount of space saved with this efficient design made this a no brainer. The weight options range from 8 to 50lbs in 6lb increments. This gives a nice sweet spot in weight whether you are trying to cut, bulk, going for light weight with high reps or heavy weight with low reps, the versatility of these are fantastic. Adjusting is easy thanks to the bright and clear LCD screen on the base.
The JAXJOX app offers a lot of options itself too, especially for classes. My first class I signed up with was only about 9 minutes long, it was a Strong class with Coach Anthony.. I figured 9 minutes to test these bad boys out, should be cake… wrong… I was dying in no time. Now, I know the pandemic hasn’t been great for me and adding a few extra pounds and being out of shape, but for someone like me who practically worked out every single day before lockdowns, I did not expect this short workout to do that much work for me like it did. I was sweating in no time and watching in real time while the class/video was playing my reps and progress. At the end of it all my data saved and logged to todays today to go back to reference. This is extremely beneficial as this allows you to keep track of your progress and your improvements the more you do classes and do the same way down the road to see how far you've come along. Now, I’ve been going back to the gym since they opened back up however my motivation just hasn’t been there. I feel like I’m dragging along and at the end of my workout don’t feel like I accomplished much or feel the good pain… after just 9 minutes I can say that wasn’t the case. I felt motivated just hearing someone coach me along and push me to get it done. After the short 9 minutes I felt like I accomplished a solid workout. This is my first time really utilizing a coach based virtual trainer like this and I have to say it definitely helped.
I would definitely recommend these if it fits your budget. The overall package and synchronization this offers I feel sets it apart from competition. From its versatility, to its comfortable handle and solid build, I really don’t see how anyone would be disappointed. My only negative I'd give this is the monthly subscription to classes. I personally feel somewhere around $5 to $8 a month is more sustainable

Pros
- Great suction. I've had a cheaper robot vacuum before this and it missed a ton of things like pet hair, crumbs and dust/dirt piles. With the Deebot T8+ this is a thing of the past for me. This beast picks up every little thing thats laying around. I dont have to constantly see where it is and what it has missed. Definitely provides a peace of mind that it'll clean up the way you expect a vacuum to.
- Mopping - Wow. So this was an unexepcted feature I didn't think would have such an impact since you are to use water, but I'm pleasantly surprised at what just using water can accomplish on lamenent wood floor. The fact that it mops and vacuums simulantously just ensures you're getting the best clean. It has sensors so it can recognize if its going to hit carpet or a rug to stop mopping. This isn't a feature I was able to test yet but it's advertised to do so and I look forward to testing this out when we get our eventual rug for our home.
- Fairly queit for the type of power it posseses . The loudest point you will get to is when it docks back up the charging station and self cleans into the vacuum bag.
- Packaging/Unboxing. This thing was pakaged great. Easy to remove, easy to set up and easy directions. I was a little worried when I saw how much was involved as my previous robot vacuum was so basic, but to my surprise it was a seemless set up and the steps were concise and to the point. We had this beauty up and running within an hour after it fully charged.
- App/Mapping. Easy to use App, feature rich. Really neat seeing it map out your house and seeing its path. The first time using it the vacuum was kind've all over the place and didn't following a streamlined trail, however after its second run it was pretty cool to see how smart the tech is and seeing how it learned from its first run and was able to ride a better path its second run, making it run more effecient. The first run it took more time in less square foot to clean than the second run did due to learning the area floor layout of my home. The app also shows you when you should change certain accessories like the filters, brushes, etc.
Cons
- Mopping is more beneficial when you use the high setting. If you use a setting less than that I feel it doesn't clean as well as the high setting.
- Wish you could use floor cleaner, like Bonomo or something, to provide even better cleaning. Maybe you can attempt but Im not sure if its worth the risk.
- Wasn't expecting the charging station to be as big as it is but thats because it also is self cleaning so have to take the pro with the con.
- No manual control to move the vacuum , at least from what I can find. Our previous vacuum came with a remote that you can control the direction of the vacuum. Maybe this can be done in the app but I haven't been able to figure it out. I will not deduct a star because this just could be my own ignorance .
Other toughts.. I really can't say many bad things about this robot. Its efficient, cleans great and keeps learning. The dual mop/vacuum is so great and a big help in killing two birds with one stone. Between animals foot prints, hair and dirt being kicked around, the T8+ really lifts the burden of doing all this manually. I would recommend this vacuum to anyone. We don't have the largest foot print for our main area that we use this in but I can't imagine how amazing having this would be in an even larger living area. If youre in a market for an all in one robot vacuum, look no further. Give the T8+ a try and I dont think you'll regret it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Ill start this off by saying i am overall very impressed with the LG Tone Free wireless earbuds. I was hesitant to get these due to some negative videos and reviews I saw pertaining to lack of bass on them. For me, these have plenty of bass. The sound is extremely crisp and clear. The clarity is fantastic. I've owned quite a few wireless earbuds and these definitely top my list.
The pairing was extremely easy for these. I opened up the charging case ( which has wireless charging and USB C ) and my phone found them almost instantly. I'm not sure if it's because I had the LG Tone app preloaded on my phone with anticipation of these headphones arriving or what, but either way I was impressed at how seemless the connectivity is. The case has a LED charging indicator to indicate different levels of a charge. It also provides UV nano to clear the earcushions of any bacteria. I don't share my earbuds but I'm sure for people that do this would be a nice benefit. Can never be too safe these days with all we are dealing with.
The touch controls are accurate, almost too accurate with its sensitivity. I do find if I'm adjusting the earbud in my ear I activate the touch controls. This is a personal issue as I've had this problem with every earbud I've owned that goes into the ear, but my left ear just doesn't hold in place as perfect as my right one does. Apart from my personal issue, the fit and comfort of these are excellent - they're so light you barley notice they're there. Included are different cushion selections to fit your ear needs.
The LG Tone app has a lot of great options. From here, you can choose different equalizer settings, powered by Meridian, with options such as Immersive mode, Bass Boost, Natural and Treble Boost modes. There are also two options for custom settings ( I do not know enough to make my own setting but for audiophile pros I'm sure this is a welcomed option ) My personal favorite modes are Immersive and Bass Boost. You can see each buds battery life here. The app also offers a Find My Earbuds mode where if they're out of the case, you can have beeping noise play to help locate either bud. When its in the case, you can see a GPS location of where it last registered its location. The app offers a lot more to the sound experience of these LG Tone's and probably helps set it apart from the competition in that area.
For phone calls, this is probably where I'll knock it down a star just a little. They're better than my previous wireless earbuds I had ( sammy ) but they don't do a great job cancelling out noise in the background for the person I'm on the phone with. They can hear me clearly and I can hear them clearly, but it definitely will pick up background noise such as a TV on in the background or music at a gym or grocery store. While this is a negative part for me, it's positive in a sense that it's better than what I've owned thus far. I think this is just a major issue with wireless earbuds in general and hopefully advancements in the tech increase the quality in this area.
In summary, I recommend these earbuds. The sound, the sleek look, the charging case and its health benefits, the great battery life and LG Tone App offers a complete package at a very aggressive reasonable price to set it apart from the competition.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The sound from these are fantastic. I've been playing call of duty warzone mostly and hearing the enemies have become way clearer than ever before . I was using generic earbuds before and it's amazing how much detail in sound I was missing .
The build of the headphones are great, very cool looking.
The cables are high quality. From the 3.5mm cable to the USB c cable, very unique design and I feel can hold up long term . I like the added sturdiness to the 3.5mm jack plug
I use these for the Xbox one and this is where my 4 out of 5 star review comes in. I can't for the life of me figure out how to hook these up wirelessly. I've tried plugging in the usb adapter and read the manual but nothing indicates it can be connected wirelessly unless I'm missing something..
Not a deal breaker for me as they still do what their main purpose is and that's offer great surround sound headphone quality to up the gaming experience and give a competitive advantage against others.
Another negative for me is theyre quite heavy so that is an adjustment on the head as well as not being the most pleasant to wear if you wear eyeglasses. A lot of adjusting to get a good comfort level.
I would recommend this to a friend!

How is the finish on the black model? Smooth and glossy, or textured so it doesn't show fingerprints?

It's glossy. The picture is deceiving I thought it was going to be textured or even a slight metal feel but it is smooth and glossy. It doesn't hold fingerprints all that much though so I wouldn't worry too much about it.
