TP-Link is the first consumer networking brand to release a Wi-Fi 7 router and mesh system. With so many smart home devices connecting to your home network, it is crucial to have fast internet and a mesh system that can provide coverage throughout your home. TP-Link system is ready for Wi-Fi 7 devices. This system has three separate mesh points, a power supply cord, and an Ethernet cable with a quick installation guide. Each mesh is a tall cylindrical shape with a # 7 design with the Deco branding logo, WPS, 4x 2.5 Gbps Ethernet ports, and 1x USB port. To set it up is straightforward; download the TP-Link Deco app and follow the instructions. Log into the TP-Link app, create a network (+), select the device/router, unplug the modem, remove any previous router, and plug in the new device/router. Then, power up the modem and the router. Once the device is connected, identify the location of the device (e.g., office/ bedroom/ etc..). Last, plug in the other Deco units and follow similar instructions without plugging them into the modem.
This mesh system uses multi-link operation, allowing multiple devices to simultaneously send and receive data across different band frequencies and channels. This results in more devices reaching maximum speeds all at once. There are no issues with streaming for lag-free 8K content and virtual reality gaming. I get zero dead zones in my house (the area is about 3000 square feet). The Wi-Fi is excellent; I even get full speed in my front and backyard. With this device, you can upgrade to HomeShield Pro, TP-Link’s subscription service, to protect your family's parental controls, block access to malicious websites, identify potential threats, and keep your home network safe from attacks. I did tests using different devices and locations, producing fantastic speed. This network system is the best Wi-Fi solution I have ever tried.

Usually, I'm not particularly eager to wear jewelry, rings, or watches, but this Withings ScanWatch 2 will be the exception. It is a nice-looking watch, esthetically simple, lightweight, and extremely easy to use. It is a unique, hybrid watch that combines analog and smartwatch features and is packed with many health measurements. To charge the watch, you place it on the charging base by inserting the side with the crown (pin/dial) first and sliding the other end. It clips in and stays attached to the charger. There are no plugs to insert into the watch. The charging base connects with a standard USB-C, which includes one end that is USB-C and the other that is the older USB connection. It does not have a charging block/charger; you must use one from your other devices. The digital OLED display is a decent size and easy to read. Note that it is not a touch screen; everything is controlled by the app or the crown/ dial (push and scroll). I use this watch with an Android device, and the app is straightforward. You can customize the notifications sent from your phone to the watch. The watch will gently vibrate whenever there are notifications. You can customize notifications by turning some on or off or all. I don't particularly appreciate being distracted, so I turn off all notifications, including incoming calls and messages. Also, if you turn off notifications, your battery life on the watch will last longer. You get the actual message as a scrolling display on the watch and an alert (a gentle vibration). There is no option to respond to the notification on the watch.
The app gives you a daily report that includes how you slept, your heart rate and is at the moment, post-workout recovery time, and optional menstrual health (a menstrual cycle tracking for a woman's health). The watch includes for free both (1) monitoring your health data and (2) data insights. With the membership of Withings+ (Plus), you get the above and (1) a health improvement score, (2) follow health insights and trends to improve, and (3) an exclusive library of recipes, articles, and workouts. The features I enjoy are the body temperature and ECG sensors, heart rate, and sleep tracking (score). Overall, I am incredibly impressed with the look and the functions to track your health with this Withings ScanWatch 2 hybrid watch.

I got this device for my daughter, who goes to college during the day and comes home very late at night. Setting up the personal alarm is quick and easy with the app. First, download the Swann Security app and sign in (or sign up). Then the app asks you to “Pair Device” and follow the on-screen instructions. Scan the QR code on the bottom of the device (keychain). After pairing, designate an emergency contact. Without the mobile subscription, you can only add one (1) emergency contact. With the subscription, you can include up to five (5) emergency contacts. There are two methods to use the alarm: (1) activate Siren and Emergency Help, and (2) activate Emergency Help Only. For the siren and help, you pull up the help/red ring to activate. For emergency help (without the siren), you press the help/red button. For both methods, the designated contact will receive an emergency text with the current location. With the Swan subscription to their ActiveResponse plan, you unlock the 24-hour/7-day professional monitoring and response, alert up to five (5) emergency contacts, and use the app to find your keys. To avoid unintentionally (or accidentally) pressing or pulling the help button, the alarm can be locked by twisting the ring (red button) to the lock position. The alarm requires one (1) CR2 3V battery. The device isn’t bulky, has a very decent size, and is lightweight. So far, the device works properly, and fortunately, we have not had an actual emergency. Overall, I am satisfied with this product.

This review is for the NextBase iQ 4K smart dash cam without the rear camera. This is the third or fourth dashcam that I have owned, and so far, I like this new NextBase iQ. The box has everything you need to connect the dashcam to any vehicle. It comes with the camera and its two attached antennas, a couple of wire ties (zip ties), warning stickers, an extra 3M double-sided sticker, a tool to hide (tuck) wires, a clip to hold the wire on a solid surface, an OBD port connection wire, and four (4) different types of fuse-type connection wire. This camera has front and cabin (cockpit) side cameras, and the rearview camera is optional. The double camera feature makes this dashcam great for rideshare drivers or when you want to record your passengers. Because of privacy issues when recording inside your car, it is highly recommended to place the sticker both on the outside of the car and inside.
Setup is super quick and easy with the Nextbase iQ app installation wizard (guide). I chose the easiest of the connection wires, the OBD port connector. After the connection, the dashcam will get power, and you will get a barcode on the cam display screen, which I had to scan with my phone camera. This will link the device to the iQ app. The device will undergo a software update. Then you will be guided to place the camera and hide the wires. After that, you will choose your plan type: monthly or yearly (get 20% off with the yearly). There are two types of plans: (1) Protect (which is basic) and (2) Protect Plus. Whichever plan you choose, you get three (3) months of a free trial.
There is no video screen view on the dashcam; to view recordings or live views, you must use your mobile device. There is a small display that shows recording, motion, and parking. The night vision quality is very good. Note that the cabin (cockpit) camera records night vision in black and white. The daytime 4K view is the best I have seen compared to my older dashcams. Some of the issues that this new solution solves are high-memory storage (SD cards) and cloud storage. I don’t know which cellular company it uses for its full 4G connection, but so far I have not had an issue with the connection. On a mobile device, you can view all of the cameras live with a 4G cellular connection from a remote location. This is great for protecting your vehicle when it senses a movement, it sends you a notification to the iQ app. It can sense and activate the smart view when there are pedestrians, cyclists, and other cars. Another great feature is that the camera records the GPS location, which will be great to use as evidence. There is an option within the app for privacy to turn off the GPS. I tested the “witness mode,” and it does great at storing and sharing recordings with a loved one whenever you experience different emergencies like road rage or a police stop. The view is not only stored in the cloud and internal memory but it is also transmitted live streams with the people I selected to share. The witness mode and the emergency SOS are very useful and maybe even life-saving features.
This device and the cost of the plans are worth all the features and benefits it offers as a smart device. Are you willing to pay more for security and safety for yourself, your passengers, and your property? I am extremely satisfied with this Nextbase iQ dashcam, and I highly recommend it.

This is my first iRobot vacuum cleaner, and so far, I am satisfied. The charging port has a very sleek design, and it attaches to a floor protective tray. Setting up the device on your smartphone is quick and simple. When the machine does a complete cleaning routine, I get a notification on my device. The smart mapping did an excellent job drawing the area around my kitchen and nook. The mapping was over 95% accurate. With smart mapping, you can assign a custom room name to each room in your house. The kitchen area and the nook are next to each other with a diving wall, but with smart mapping, I was able to divide both areas into different sections for the iRobot. The performance of the vacuum is excellent; it can pick up many small particles from both hardwood and tile floors. The two green roller brushes and the cleaning system do a great job of picking up debris and placing it into the dust bin. It is very impressive how the robot covers the entire mapped room without missing a spot. For bigger areas, it may take longer to clean, but at least it is being done by the robot. During certain jobs, the battery needs to be recharged, but the great thing about the robot is that it doesn’t require you to do anything about it because it does it itself. The mop pad does a great job for small, not heavily stained areas. To clean the pad, you can wash it by hand or place it in your washing machine. For tougher stains, you will still need to use a regular mop, but at least you won’t have to mop the entire area. Once in a while, I mop the entire floor with a regular mop. The vacuum and mop combo design is great for everyday cleaning and maintaining your floor. The best part of owning a robot vacuum is that it can clean your floor when you’re not home. I have a small dog, so to avoid it barking at night and waking me up with the iRobot vacuum, I only have it clean when I am away. If you want to constantly keep your floor clean, an iRobot is the way to go.

The entry points (doors, garage, windows, etc.) to your house are the most important to protect your home. Specifically, the security around the garage door needs to be secure. This MyQ smart garage video keypad with a camera is essential to add to a home security system. This device functions like a traditional keypad by creating pins for every home member, with the additional feature of having a video camera. The MyQ app adds even more personalized access than traditional keypads by removing setting changes, viewing activity history, and interacting with people near the device. A great feature of this device is that you get excellent video confirmation of who opened the garage and meaningful real-time alerts for both when someone uses the keypad or the camera detects motion. The person detection works extremely well at the highest motion sensitivity level, but you may want to reduce it if you have trees or bushes nearby. The two-way audio works very well; I can talk to the person near the keypad, and they can also hear me when I select the mic. There is an option to subscribe to access recorded events for up to 30 days. The box comes with a 30-day free trial of the subscription service. The device uses a rechargeable battery, which has a decent battery life. The wide-angle view and the images are clear, and the night vision is acceptable. I tried the two-way audio with a few delivery drivers, and it worked great; they can hear me fine, and I can hear them fine as well. Installation is easy if you can drill a hole for two screws in the wall or frame around the garage door. The MyQ app guides you through the entire process of adding the keypad to your MyQ account. Note: To work properly, this device needs to be near an area where there is access to your Wi-Fi. To conclude, the MyQ app and devices are fantastic, and it is an excellent investment to protect your home.

I have had the LiftMaster MQ Retrofit Package on a standard garage opener (without MyQ) for over 6 years, and I have been extremely satisfied with its performance and the convenience of opening the garage on a mobile device. Now, with this new MyQ smart garage security camera that easily connects to the MyQ app, I can view my garage when the garage door is opening or closing (even when closed) from essentially anywhere. Now I can see who opened the garage and which car is in the garage. It has a cool feature with two-way audio and motion detection to speak and hear someone inside the garage. Now I can be more confident that the things in my garage are more secure. Setup is also easy: (1) enable Bluetooth and location services; (2) open or download the MyQ app; (3) follow the app wizard or guide to set the camera to your smartphone; (4) update the firmware if required; and (5) mount the camera. Note that for the camera to work/ connect, there must be a strong Wi-Fi signal where it will be installed. So, if there is no Wi-Fi signal in your garage, this camera will not function properly. Mounting is also extremely easy if you use the magnetic base, which can just be attached to the metal case of the garage opener motor. You can also mount the camera to a wall or other object with the included self-adhesive mounting plate. The angle of view of the camera is great; I can see more of my driveway when the door is open. In low light, the camera does well with images shown in black and white. To conclude, this is another great device to add to the MyQ system to secure your garage.

I’m the kind of person who loves to hear music, podcasts, and videos while I am doing whatever I have to do, which is why I needed to find a good pair of wireless earphones. These are the second pair of earphones I’ve gotten from JLab and I am very happy with them! It is super easy to connect them to your device(s). Also, I’ve found that the connection stays strong even at a fair distance, which I love because it allows me to move around and put things away quickly without having to carry my device with me all the time. This pair is truly a very small fit but still fits comfortably. I especially love the case and how it charges the earphones so whenever I am not using them, they can be charged and ready for the next time I need to use them. They have a “be aware” feature, which is a nice safety feature whenever I need to be aware of my surroundings. I like how the sound is still very clear even when it is in this mode. There is also a music and movie mode, and you can skip, raise, and lower the volume by just tapping on them. You can also customize the sound experience through the app. They are a very functional pair of earphones and I would definitely recommend them to anyone!

This is a versatile one-box streaming amplifier system that can do a lot. It has the capability for sound from HDMI ARC input. This system can play everything: turntable, CD player, digital files, internet radio, FM radio, TV sound, and Tidal streaming service. The entire box is encased in a silver metal frame with a high-quality build and finish. The few buttons and the informative display, which is a touch screen, have a sleek design and placement. The dimensions are similar to those of other systems. The system works well out of the box; I completed the installation and the connection to the Wi-Fi in under 30 minutes. Using the Google Home app, the system is not connected to my house Wi-Fi, which is great if you use Google Chromecast. Alternatively, you can use the system via Bluetooth. The built-in FM radio works great, providing an excellent signal to my favorite radio stations. There are multiple ways to connect the system: (1) two line-level inputs; (3) phono RCA; (4) optical and coaxial digital inputs; (5) a high-quality 6.3 mm headphone jack; (6) HDMI ARC; and (7) two USB ports (Type A and Type B).
This is a crossover product that makes it possible not only for streaming services such as music, radio, and podcasts but also for the sound coming from video services (movies). Technics combines both types of services so that users can enjoy the great sound of an audio system as well as the video content on one system and easily switch from one source to another. What is special about this product is that the HDMI ARC does great at removing any noise from the video circuitry of the integrated digital environment. Now, when I watch high-definition movies, the sound produced by the system is of pristine quality. There is no need to use two controls to watch movies because the sound volume coming from the TV using the HDMI ARC can be controlled with the TV’s remote control. The power output is 80 watts a channel into four and 40 watts a channel into eight. This awesome high-end audio network integrated amplifier system allows you to listen to music/audio from nearly every connection type, source connectivity, and digital connectivity. What today's music lovers want is convenience and great sound. The music landscape that this product allows streaming is huge, from different sources and services. I like the fact that I can do all this with just one system without the need to have another system when I switch to another source or streaming service.

Includes four attachments: a USB-C to USB-C cord for charging, a USB-C to USB Adapter, the Theragun Sense, and a carrying pouch. It does not include a wall charger (power brick), so you might have to use a charger from another device. The carrying soft cloth pouch is of a thick quality, holds all the accessories, and the zipper is easy to open/close. The Theragun design is more ergonomic than other massagers since it is shaped like a triangle and allows one to get back muscles. The device is lightweight, easy to hold, and used around the body. There is no issue with using this device across tough-to-reach muscles. The gun’s massage volume/noise (depending on the speed level) at the highest level isn’t loud—very acceptable. The multi-button control panel and an OLED screen allow you to set the desired setting for the massager without using the app.
The SENSE has three new unique features not found with the other Theragun models: a biometric sensor, guided breath-work, and the TheraMind sound. The biometric sensor is a heart rate sensor. I enjoy These new features because I frequently have difficulty falling asleep at night and after waking up in the middle of the night. These unique features (guided breath-work, biometric sensor, and the TheraMind Sound) help me bring my heart rate down to allow my body to fall asleep. For example, on one use of the product and before starting the routine, my heart rate was 81bpm, and after using the routine in the device, my heart rate went down to 74bpm. This device helps reduce my stress, makes me feel more relaxed throughout the day, and helps me fall asleep much faster. It works so well that I have 2-3 guided breath-work sessions per day and one before going to bed. The use of the Theragun SENSE is now part of my daily routine. After every session on the app, it asks if you want to save your results (heart rate) and routine. The purpose of recording these is to help guide the user through a wellness journey. The only one I saved is the sleep results, and this helps me get to sleep faster every night.
The Therabody App has a tone of Routines for the Theragun SENSE. Within each CATEGORY (18 Total) there are a number of routines, Categories are: (1)For Relaxation and Breath-work (4 routines), (2)For Walking (5 routines: Calves, Quads, Lower Back, Walk Recovery, Pre-Walk Warm-Up), (3)For Running (12 routines), (4)For Upper Body Workouts (9 routines), (5)For Lower Body Workouts (14 routines), (6)For Upper Body Pain (8 routines), (7)For Lower Body Pain (14 routines), (8)For Cycling (9 routines), (9)For Sleep and Relaxation (6 routines), (10)For Yoga and Studio Workouts (8 routines), (11)For Full Body Workouts (9 routines), (12)For Travel (6 routines), (13)For Outdoor Adventures (9 routines), (14)For Field Sports (16 routines: Golf Warm-up, Golf Recovery, Baseball Warm-up with Cody Bellinger, Soccer Warm-Up with Kevin De Bruyne, Soccer Recovery, Baseball Recovery, Lacrosse Warm-up, Lacrosse Recovery, Softball Warm-Up, Softball Recovery, Rugby Warm-Up, Rugby Recovery, Equestrian Warm-Up, Equestrian Recovery, Soccer Warm-up, and Baseball Warm-Up), (15)For Water Sports (6 routines), (16)For Courts Sports (12 routines: Handball, Padel Tennis, Volleyball, Basketball, Tennis, Pickleball) (17)For Winder Sports (9 routines), and (18)For Combat Sports (11 routines). Some routines repeat within other categories; some have video, some have motivational speakers, and all have background music.
Overall, I am satisfied with Theragun Sense. It has a tone of routines, and it is a great tool to help someone’s overall health. The unique features of the SENSE model (Biometric Sensor, Guided Breath-work, and TheraMind Sound) are my favorite and are excellent for helping relax, breath-work, and sleep.
The SENSE has three new unique features not found with the other Theragun models: a biometric sensor, guided breath-work, and the TheraMind sound. The biometric sensor is a heart rate sensor. I enjoy These new features because I frequently have difficulty falling asleep at night and after waking up in the middle of the night. These unique features (guided breath-work, biometric sensor, and the TheraMind Sound) help me bring my heart rate down to allow my body to fall asleep. For example, on one use of the product and before starting the routine, my heart rate was 81bpm, and after using the routine in the device, my heart rate went down to 74bpm. This device helps reduce my stress, makes me feel more relaxed throughout the day, and helps me fall asleep much faster. It works so well that I have 2-3 guided breath-work sessions per day and one before going to bed. The use of the Theragun SENSE is now part of my daily routine. After every session on the app, it asks if you want to save your results (heart rate) and routine. The purpose of recording these is to help guide the user through a wellness journey. The only one I saved is the sleep results, and this helps me get to sleep faster every night.

Make a smart solution to upgrade your home security to IndoorCam Mini. Never second-guess what you see in clear 2K resolution, and give yourself control with pan and tilt functions to monitor your home’s most vital areas. IndoorCam Mini features On-Device AI Human Detection, a technology that identifies humans in the frame and only sends you the notifications that matter. After returning home, you can turn on Home Privacy Mode, which turns off the camera and rotates it to your preferred privacy angle. Best of all, there’s no monthly fee after your purchase.
Can this camera do motion tracking for People ONLY? And stay still for everything else? Or will it track every movement. I'd rather have it track people only instead of cars driving by etc.
The eufy - IndoorCam Mini is not designed for outdoor video recording, it is not weather resistant. It does record every movement.

Can this indoor camera be set up in a window to record outdoor activity? I can’t use a doorbell camera due to a porch pillar blocking the view of the mailbox. I am looking for something to capture both the mailbox and the porch steps.
Yes, it could work on a window, but make sure the night vision feature is turned off in the setting. Night camera emits infrared light to capture images in the dark. If infrared is emitted in front of a window, it will be reflected to the camera and distort the image. Just turn off the night vision.

Does anyone know what size of AC adapter this comes with? I know the higher models come with a 240W but that would kind of be overkill for this one
AC Adapter Model A20-180P1A
Input: 100-240V~50-60Hz 2.5A
Output: 20.0V---9.0A 180.0W
See image and I hope this helps.

Would the battery life in this last me throughout a typical 6-7 hour school day?
It has a long battery life and it has the feature to use a power bank. One of the USB-C ports is Type-C PD, power delivery, which will allow you to use and charge the laptop with a power bank. Very versatile power options: (1) original power input port, (2) Type-C port simultaneously or (3) individually. Using simultaneously the power port and Type-C port, the laptop can be used and at the same time it is charged fast.

Hello I am planning on moving overseas in a few months (South Korea) Is this product covered by international warranty? If not, is there a way to purchase the premium care for notebooks that provides international services?
According to the warranty card (ASUS Warranty Card e14568 v4), "This Warranty applies in the county or purchase". On page 7 of the warranty card, #4 ASUS DOES NOT perform warranty service outside the county where you bought the Notebook.
There is an additional step needed to enjoy comprehensive internation warranty service. Must visit ASUS Service Center website for detailed locations.

Is this anti reflective matt screen or glossy ? good for outdoor use ? Screen nits ?
It is an anti-reflective matte screen, not glossy at all. The screen is not reflective at all, so I think it would work for outdoor use.
