too many omissions
on June 14, 2019
Posted by: RangeExtended
from Uniontown Ohio
I'll start with the positives. The Acer looks look and has great battery life. The NVDIA GTX card screams. I could not discern a frame drop or any lag. The hard drive offers plenty of storage for the machines size.
That being said. The display is only 1080p while most competitors offer 4k. Also there is no touch input ( which my laptop 3 years ago offered it). There is no SD card slot!!! All the other ports are good but NO SD? Lastly while the hybrid drive is snappy on start up, this is billed as a gaming laptop. Acer put a great card in it then choked it into a bottle neck by not making the hard drive all solid state.
This laptop may be good for a very new beginner but there are much better options out there.

At the time of this review 40 is a big number for transfer speeds 40 is almost triple the basic older thunderbolt cable speed. This cable lives up to those claims after having run several common tests. The build quality is grate with a nice thick wire, and solid ends and connections.
I would have preferred a braided cable shielding for longevity but I don't have anything to complain about.

So too preface I usually love SanDisk. Their build quality has never let me down over the years, and almost always blow the competition away with performance. That being said this specific drive has a design issue. or lack there of. With most new products on the market iv'e found the USB ports are crammed in very close together. The width of this drive is unacceptable in relation. In testing I have at least 3 devices i am unable to use with this as it's width pushes against the other ports. So if was still 2005 with devices flaunting USB on the front or a vehicle then great. However it's 2018 and some changes need to be made.
Lastly (I'm just being nit-picky.) I don't understand why I need the cloud software included. The reason for a flash drive to begin with is to stay away from the cloud. If you use cloud storage then you don't need a flash drive.

My first impression out of the box was "wow" these are sleek and light weight for monitors! Setting up the connection was simple, and they charged fairly quick. Sound isolation was fantastic and overall quality was good. IMO these are great for relaxing to an entire album and catching all the finer details.

Perfect

It's well built, very small,& light weight, easy to carry in a front pocket, and crazy fast. USB C makes for fast transfers. I transferred my entire photo library (over 15.000 photos and around 200 short videos) to the drive as a back up and couldn't be happier. This is a must buy as the solid state is a much more reliable and fast way to back up or transfer your important memories.
I wish it were a full terabyte but so far the 500 has been enough for most everything I require.

Better than most but not the champ

So I’ll start with the positives. The wand is great! It separates in two places to make getting into hard to reach areas even easier. The dust bin is large and empties all the way clean (without having to be blown out ) the vacuum is light and easy to maneuver. The cord is very long and reaches 50% of my home.
That in mind there is a cord... at first I thought ok maybe it cleans better, has more power etc. Alas the brush head needs some work and I find myself rolling over the same spots multiple times. Overall a solid vac , but not the best

Who is this for?
on September 28, 2018

from Uniontown Ohio
So I liked the design and the retro feel. To me this is a camera for a child or teen learning the basics of subject framing. I don't like that it connects to a smartphone which defeats the purpose of an instant camera. Why would I use it over my cell? instead of trying to add bells and whistles Polaroid needs to focus on image quality. Film price. and most importantly improving the battery. There was a time when they had this market cornered but others are doing it now and better. There is nostalgic value to the name and design but for me that's all.

while the range seems to be much further than my phantom 3 standard I don't know if it can actually get to 4 miles out. I really wish it had occusync, but overall it's still a great drone. The 4k footage is amazing

I was thinking less about this set at purchase. After getting it home I realized this is a great value set. It has more features than my top of the line one. For the class it’s in I would say it’s a great picture with all the bells you need. The only drawback for me is the thickness. It’s still a flat panel but much deeper than its peers

After much research I found it very difficult to find a card that actually supports the new GoPro hero 6’s 4K 60fps. Most mfg hide the actual write speeds of their cards. After much testing I can say this one will work without a glitch.

I play PC games. Would these headphones be good for communicating with my friends online or should I just use dedicated gaming headphones? I like the way these sound, but if the microphone doesn't work, then i'll just have to pass. and how loud is the mic

No pick and over the head pair that isolates better

iPad mini 4 has a gorgeous 7.9-inch Retina display, yet it's only 6.1mm thin and weighs just 0.65 pounds, making it small enough to hold in one hand. It has a powerful A8 chip with 64-bit desktop-class architecture, advanced iSight and FaceTime HD cameras, Wi-Fi and LTE connectivity, iCloud, the breakthrough Touch ID fingerprint sensor, and up to 10 hours of battery life. It also includes great apps for productivity and creativity, and powerful new features in iOS 9 like multitasking. And there are even more incredible apps available in the App Store.
 

Has Apple improved the back light in the iPad / iPad mini? I often use my iPad to read outside and the glare makes it impossible if the sun is out.
