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.

I mainly got this short cord to connect my laptop to a large monitor. You can use this HDMI cable to connect laptops to TVs, projectors, and monitors. It can be used for DVD players, Blueray, AppleTV, Nexus player to TV. No issues with the product. It feels like a good quality cable. This is the 2nd cable I buy. Great for the price paid.

SimpliSafe wireless home security system is an excellent product for homeowners and renters. All wireless alarm systems (DIY and professionally installed) work pretty much the same and they come with cellular communication instead of a landline. What SimpliSafe provides is quality wireless home security similarly to those professionally installed without the extremely high initial installation cost and ridiculous costly recurrent monthly monitor service charge. With SimpliSafe professional monitoring the lowest monthly plan is just $14.99 and with other traditional companies, their prices start at $27.99. Note that the $27.99 is ADT’s basic plan and you required to have a landline, which if you don’t have is an additional cost to monitor your system. Their wireless, without a landline, basic plan starts at $48.99/month. Comparing similar products (wireless) and service, SimpliSafe is cheaper by $34/mon ($125/year) for the same type of system and professional monitoring service. With the money saved, you may even want to buy a system for your loved ones.
What is best about this DIY system is that because it is completely wireless you can take it with whenever you move home or apartment. If you have a second unit, this might even work when you stay at another location for a prolonged period of time, e.g. summer/winter vacation homes. Even though it is not recommended, you can have this system working in your home without monitoring service.
PROS:
> NO Contract at all! This is the best feature that you aren't locked into a monitoring service contract. You pay month to month and you can cancel your service whenever you want. Other companies require at least a minimum of a 1-year contract and if you need to cancel for whatever reason most likely will incur a cancellation fee. Alternatively but not recommended, the system can operate on its own without the monitoring service. The alarm sound by itself might deter burglars from continuing even further from taking more of your belongings. If you will be doing the system without the monitoring, I highly recommend getting the additional siren to even deter the burglars from continuing their bad deeds.
> Wireless contacts, touchpads, and motion sensors that come reprogrammed to just plug and play. No net to make complicated programming. This makes the system easily expandable with additional components. Other companies will charge heavily to add those components while with SimpliSafe it’s DIY.
> Add additional devices such as glass break sensor, another high pitch siren, carbon monoxide sensor and more.
> NO need of a landline. This alarm system uses cellular communication to connect with the monitoring station. Cellular signal is way better than landline since landline has the risk of burglars disable the system by cutting the phone line or power line. Traditional monitoring system doesn't offer cellular communication or they charge extra for use of cellular connection.
CONS:
> Keypad system is not light up. Place the keypad in a location near an available light and this helps you see the buttons and avoid entering an incorrect code.
SUMMARY:
This is a good system for a low price. You get a professional quality monitoring for a low price and no contract.

All you will need in a trimmer. This is the best upgrade over other beard trimmers because it comes with a variety of different sizes to your desired bear length. I like the fact that comes with extra accessories such as the nose hair and precision shaver. I don’t like shaving my body hair but I do like having it short. The Multigroom comes with 2 body guard clip combs that will reduce the size of your body hair. This is a lot faster and safer than shaving your body hair. It is very comfortable to hold and operate which gives you feeling of control in trimming.
What I like most about this product is that you can use the trimmer cordless or corded, and while charging. It is very annoying when you have an old device which you can’t use because it no longer hold charge and the batteries are hard to find. With this trimmer, you don’t have to worry the device turning on when the battery doesn’t hold a charge because you can use it corded.

I have a busy schedule so I like devices that help you make things quickly and easy. This Philips Multi Chopper does its job perfectly and it is a lifesaver to have in your kitchen. The first thing I wanted to chop with this device is onions. This chopper cuts onion into small pieces and I didn’t end up with blended onion like other choppers. Normally, other choppers you end up with onion that looks like-paste; and this is because most choppers have a blade at the bottom which overly chops the onion into a paste. Philips chopper design solved this issue with their chop drop technology. This design chops onion on the top canister which has the blade on the top part of the machine, once the onion is chopped it drops to the bottom of the container where it doesn’t get chopped again. The Chop Drop Technology is great for onions because you will not get paste-like onions. For harder chopping vegetable like carrots, I remove the top canister and I use a different blade. The carrots came out perfectly chopped for my cooking needs. The device is very simple to use, place the vegetable inside with the appropriate container and blade, place the cover motor, and finally the cover down to chop. This just turns the chopper on without the need to press a switch.
Cleanup was not hard to do because the device design prevents food from getting stuck. It was easy to rinse and wash, no issue in this process.
This will be an extreme lifesaver if you need to chop for a large family event. If you hate how some chopper leaves your onions with a paste-like texture, then you will love this Philips MultiChopper with Chop Drop Technology. The most important thing is that my wife loves this new chopper. “Happy wife, happy life”

Finally, I have a monitor that is nice to work, study and have fun.
The screen dimension is nice to work because it allows me to have to browsers, or apps open at the same time to work more efficiently. I find working on word documents a lot easier when I have another page open and on my screen. The colors are beautiful and vibrant. The resolution is excellent to watch movies.

The hardware and case feel like a quality built. It is extremely light that you may lift with just one hand. This Acer monitor is very thin and it comes with RGB cable for connection. It has a HDMI port, which this is the only type of connection my new computer has. The monitor tilts a bit forward and backward, but only a few degrees. What I like about this monitor is that after a few hours of use it doesn’t feel hot or warm.
I think that this Acer monitor is great and I plan to get another one for my wife, maybe the 27” for her.

This Sphero Spider-Man product is amazing and my 10-year-old son loves his spidey (that is what he calls him). The device is kinda of the concept of Alexa but it doesn't activate by voice command, you have to press the spider on Spidey's chest. Pressing the spider button activates the device. He tells many jokes and asks questions to know you. For playing, he features a story where he walks your through a spiderman crime scene and he requests the player's assistance. He can guard your room when someone enters and keeps track of the time and gives out an alert. The sound is incredible and the Light eyes change with Spidey's emotions and conversation. The first day he kept my son entertained for hours. Easy to set up with a smartphone app and you may set up an alarm to wake up your little ones in the morning. I love the features that come with its own charger and rechargeable batteries; no more using disposable batteries. I hope Sphero company can create a device for girls. To summarize, my son loves his new toy/friend.

Hisense - 60" Class - LED - H6 Series - 2160p - Smart - 4K UHD TV with HDR
Stream your favorite shows on this 60-inch Hisense television. Its 3840 x 2160 resolution and 8 ms response time bring scenes to life, and 4K upscaling transforms lower quality video into HD resolution. This Hisense television is equipped with HDMI inputs to connect to a gaming console or Blu-ray player.
Why I see this tv offered to me at 479.00 and when I clicked on it has a 599 price instead??????
This has happened to me and I think this might be your reason why you see a different price. Sometimes BestBuy does offer a different price but the tradeoff is that it is an open box item. When a product has an available open box, it will show you the different prices. Sometimes availability of an open box depends on your location; it looks like they do open-boxes within a certain distance from your location. So, if you are doing a search on BestBuy.com for a particular product and the browser has a different zip code (auto fills the zip code) other than your location it will give you the price for the wrong location. Once you enter your correct zip code at checkout (or before) it will change or state that it is not available. I live in Florida and many times my browser sometimes gives a zip code from different states, like NY or NH.
Another possibility is that an Open-item was available when you started doing your search and just before deciding to checkout it is no longer available because had already bought it online or in the store. Nowadays, many stores are fulfilling their online purchase with their own store inventory, not from a warehouse.
BestBuy has 3 types of Open-Box products:
1) Excellent
2) Satisfactory (in-store only)
3) Fair (in-store only)

Is this speaker drop proof
The top and bottom sides of the speaker are made of a hard plastic material which probably breaks easily. It is not insulated by any silicon or rubber type material, the bottom has some rubber but that is to prevent skids. So, I will not think that they can hand a heavy drop, maybe from a table to floor distance but I would be careful.

This water-resistant JBL portable speaker is made of durable materials, so you can use it outdoors safely.
I want the JBL Link 20 in white. Is it available? And how do I order it?
I have seen these in white but I am not sure if this store sales them in that color. White is a very nice color but if it will handle a lot to move it from place to place the cloth-like material surround the speaker might get dirty and not stay white. This is just like white vehicle compares to a darker color vehicle, you will see them dirty more quickly. If you get white and you want to clean the side, then this will be no issue because these speakers are water-resistant.

My laptop works but the screen died. Both my TV & laptop have HDMI hookups. Can I use these to make my TV my computer screen?
Yes, It should work fine. I watch online movies using my laptop connect with an HDMI cable to my TV or my projector. It works fine. You might have an issue with screen size and resolution, but this is a temporary fix to be able to use your laptop with a damaged monitor. My laptop only has the newer USB connection but NO HDMI so I use an adaptor which allows me to connect an HDMI cable to my laptop. See image.
