I feel more secure that all of my smart connected home devices are protected. This device would prevent a hacker from entering your home network through any of your internet connected device. Nowadays there are tons of connected devices besides computers, smartphones, and tablets that use the internet, such as TVs, game consoles, printers, security system and cameras, refrigerators, garage door opener, lighting fixtures/bulbs, and etc… The Bitdefender BOX has a nice clean and futuristic look.
With the Quick Start Guide, the setup is easy and straightforward. You will need to download an app and create an account, the app will guide you through the rest of the setup process. The app will instruct you to plug the power cord into the device and the wall outlet, then wait for the LED. Next, connect the box to your Wi-Fi network, this step has three options (1) use the Wi-Fi router from your internet service provider (ISP), (2) use your own personal Wi-Fi router or (3) use the Bitdefender box as a standalone Wi-Fi router. My setup was very easy without an issue; for my setup, I used my Wi-Fi router. One excellent feature of this device is that if you encounter any issue during a setup you may call the 24/7 free setup assistance number.
Once everything is set up, the Bitdefender scans all connected devices and continuously search for any weakness. The app will let you know of ongoing events and this will help prevent security threats. It really blocks suspicious links and blocks them; they can be phishing attempts. If you are certain that a link is safe, you can simply allow it with the Bitdefender Central app.
Nowadays it is very important to protect our data, such as family photos, digital documents, and credit card bank information. If your network is not protected you have a possible cyber vulnerability. The device includes the Bitdefender Total Security software to remotely protect your computers. The subscription is for one-year and is for unlimited devices. The device also includes various parental safety controls, such as setting content filtering, manage daily internet usage, blackout potential harmful persons, and monitor texts. To close, I highly recommend Bitdefender to protect your home network with a complete cybersecurity.

My family and I were very, very excited to get this TV! This Smart TV connects to the internet, as well as many other devices at home. Everything to do with setting it up was fairly simple, and it only required one wire to turn on the TV. Moreover, the resolution on the screen is great, and the image is very well sharpened; The screen is wide, making the living room seem bigger. Also, the sound is loud and clear. If you can’t locate the remote control, don’t panic because on the TV there are all the buttons needed to control the TV, including a scroll-wheel. The TV comes with a variety of features and 27 pre-installed apps, including our family favorite’s: Vudu, Netflix, and Youtube (These apps along with Amazon are on the remote for immediate access). It also has Game Center, Dailymotion, and Pandora. Although we have not tried it yet, you can also download other apps you wish to have. Therefore, one can not only watch movies and shows on this television, but can also play and download different games and apps, and stream and access music online!
The settings I used: Sports mode, brightness 47, contrast 53, Color 53, dynamic backlight off, aspect auto, eco sensor off, noise off, adaptive off, sharpness 10, ultra smooth standard, and back light 100. For our type of room lighting condition and the type of movies we watch, this is the best setting for my family. You have to adjust the setting to get the images that are best for you. The key is playing with the setting.
Considerably, this is a good investment for as you can do many things with it; it has a ton of bells and whistles at a great price. Overall, we are very satisfied with the product.

These bulbs emit good quality light. The only issue I had was that one bulb came defective; it did not light up. I returned to store the entire box for a full refund.

This is an awesome speaker that comes with Google Assistant.
It is easy to set up with a smartphone or tablet. Simply download the Google Home app and then follow instructions. I did not encounter any issue during the setup. Included in the setup is an offer for a free trial of Google Play Music and YouTube Red. Once Google Assistant is set up with JBL speaker, the assistant is activated by saying “Hey Google” or “Ok Google”. The device’s microphone does work as expected, detecting your command even when playing loud music or speaking to it from long distance range. My son spoke “Ok Google” from the second floor of my house and the speaker was able to detect it. I had no Bluetooth connection issues, it did work great.
The weight and compact size of this speaker truly make this very portable. The sound produced by this very small device is very nice with great bass. I have not tested the device’s waterproof feature but I prefer not to risk it. It’s good to have portable devices be waterproof, many devices are damage because of water/drink splash accidents. If you ever need to press the buttons on the speaker they are very easy to find and are backlit. To end, this is an awesome speaker because it is truly portable, has great sound and it comes with Google Assistant.

The Google Pixelbook is a great computer/tablet. It is a slim device with a sharp image; it has an Aluminium case with a glossy white shade top,smooth trackpad that responds just right, a soft keyboard that is backlit when pressing any key, and a fairly comfortable armrest (made from silicon material). When used as a tablet or display stand, the silicon acts as an anti-skid pad. It also comes with two USB C ports and a headphone jack. Furthermore, the keyboard has a Google Assistant feature which you can type on or speak to it and the system will respond.
However, it does not include a SD card slot since it already has 128GB of storage, nor does it have a cooling fan which may warm. Plus, the charger’s cord has a good length and the power supply/ AC power adapter is located at the end where it get’s plug to the wall. This is great because you don’t have a bulky power adapter box in the middle of your cable.

This is great because you don’t have a bulky power adapter box in the middle of your cable.
According to the product information, the computer’s battery lasts for about 10 hours. It has an Intel i7 processor and 8GB RAM. Weighing under 2.5 Lbs with only 10mm in thickness, it is very portable. In addition, the touch screen is 12.3 inches and is 2400 by 1600 pixels. It works efficiently - rapidly and with great quality - when watching movies, talking to a friend, playing games, etc.
Coupled with the fact that I have had the best experience on the web while using the Pixelbook, the option to use Android apps just like desktop apps makes this computer one of my favorites. I plan to be using this device mostly for school, and since my school provides free Microsoft Office on the cloud, I will not have any issues in working with Docs or Excel Files. Upon setting up my Pixelbook, I received 6 free months of Netflix for 2 devices at a time, 100GB Drive Storage, Asphalt: 8 Airborne Game, and Google Play Unlimited Music. Overall, I am satisfied with this product and if you like only best of the best, you will be too.

I have owned two projectors in the past and this BenQ HT1070A is by far the best in its class (entry-level home theater) by delivering excellent picture quality with a superior color performance at a very reasonable price.
My first impression of the product was that the BenQ projector would be slightly better than my older projector but I was wrong; the exceptional lifelike color and sharp detail every image comes to life amazed me. I initially did not set it up in my entertainment room. I had special guests and I had to quickly setup projector it in my living room which had a bigger wall to project. They were all impressed with the image quality of my new projector. I did not use a screen at that time but the BenQ still gave far better image quality than my older projector. After that, projected in at a regular screen, it gives even better picture quality. The BenQ can project up to 25’ size screen and still give a good image. The best screen size is 100 inch for a permanently fixed setup. For smaller rooms, you can also make the 100” screen viewing in only 9.2 feet.
Even though it is best to use the projector with a dark room without ambient light to bring brilliant colors to elevate your home cinema experience, this projector can be used with some room ambient light. The setup was very easy with very little adjustment required. This is great for quick setup when projecting at a different site other than its permanent cinema room. It has three quick mode setting for sports, TV and movie. My favorite mode to use this projector is the sport mode for most of the time.
In conclusion, what I like about the BenQ HT 1070A is the excellent cinema/theater quality for home viewing at a very reasonable price. It gives brilliant, precise, and authentic color to project any type of image. It is a full HD resolution with spectacular clarity with depth and range. I also like the fact that if it is set up at a different site to project, it is basically a hassle-free setup with minimal adjustment. This is convenient and flexible to have in a projector. Thanks to this new projector, my family loves our updated home cinema entertainment to watch movies, sports, and tv on a larger screen.

My family loves our new speaker that comes integrated with Alexa voice control. It has awesome sound with deep bass good for listening any type of music. It is very convenient that the speaker comes integrated with Alexa. Very easy to set up; just download Ultimate Ears app and follow instruction. During the setup, it suggested speaker software update which I did and found no issue. To use Alexa with the speaker, you need to use an Amazon account and Ultimate Ear offer free trial period for Amazon Music Unlimited. We did not encounter any issue giving Alexa commands even while playing loud music. The microphone works very well at detecting voice command.
It is great that more and more devices are made waterproof and this device has this great feature. Hate seeing a good device getting damaged due to splashed water. I don’t plan to use this speaker near a pool but It will be placed on my kitchen’s island counter where water or liquid splash may accidentally occur. The Ultimate Ears website show an image that the speaker can even be used in the shower or the pool. You may even shower with Alexa playing your favorite songs.
The speaker is a hard casing but with a coat of rubber-like material with will help in getting a strong grip on the device when transporting. The battery life is great and got the additional accessory for even easier charging. The power-up charging dock accessory is a great addition to get to complete for the speaker.
To conclude, my entire house loves this new speaker and I would recommend it because of its awesome sound, this to any home.

I am very impressed with this system. I had an older security camera that needed urgent replacement. This security system comes with many options and features with the easiest setup for this type of device. The major steps are downloading Arlo app, then creating a Netgear account and synchronizing cameras to the main system. Very easy to follow manual or in-app guided instruction. Once setup complete, all settings and option of each camera can be done using the Arlo app. What I like a lot about the system is that I can use a local storage using a USB cable to connect the base station to the USB hard drive. The Arlo does come with paid and free cloud storage. The free option only keeps the past seven (7) days of motion with audio. I recommend the additional storage on a local USB drive to backup your recording.
The Arlo Pro 2 has a great 1080p video quality with great audio recording. Night vision is good. The motion activated recording works how it should with no issue; this will save a lot of storage space and it will record what is most important. This is one of the best wireless DIY security camera systems on the market. The camera and the base station has a very simple and attractive design that matches the surrounding. It is an excellent size to hide it and use it as a discrete camera. This is great for renters because of its wireless feature it is easy to remove and take to a new location.

Can this monitor be put on a desk mount?
The monitor is not VESA mount compatible. To have it mounted you would need to get a VESA adapter mount, sold separately. If you use an adapter, you will need to be careful when adjusting the mount and by using the adapter it might void the warranty. It is a good monitor but it is not a VESA mount compatible.

Since this laptop lacks an HDMI port, is there a way to output video to a monitor/TV? And if so, what would the maximum resolution/refresh rate be?
This laptop has 1 USB-C type port and Best Buy does sell adapters that you can connect an HDMI. Search for USB-C to HDMI adapter. I have used a USB-C to HDMI adapter on my other laptops and I have not had an issue with the image quality. You may also use a streaming device on your TV/monitor and then stream from the laptop with Bluetooth. The simplest method would be the USB-C to HDMI adapter.
