These have just become my "Go-To" earbuds! I use earbuds when doing construction work, yard work and exercising. These Anker Liberty Pro earbuds have just moved to the top of my favorite list.
There are many of features to be aware of:
- LDAC tech for Hi-Res Audio

- Multipoint connection (pair to two devices)
- Transparency mode
- 8 hours playtime and 32 hours of charge in case
- 4 sizes of liquid silicone eat tips
- 4 sizes of flexible ear wings
Overall - great fit in my ears - haven't had an issue yet! Sounds is great and bluetooth is strong! Soundcore App provides good functionality and is required for firmware upgrade. I'm very impressed and I think you will be to!

Decent sound, comfortable
on November 17, 2021
Posted by: TechMatcher
from Minneapolis
I've been wearing the Belkin SOUNDFORM Move Plus earbuds today while I work and while I mowed the yard. There are very comfortable in my ears - so much so I hardly noticed them.
Right our of the box - they were automatically in paring mode and paired up to my iPhone with ease. I had only charged them for about an hour and have been already listening to them for over 4 hours. They are rated at 5 hours playtime battery life with another 19 in the charging case - no reason at this point to say that is inaccurate.
For the price, I think this is a great investment for those wanting an option to the more expense earbuds on the market. Also - the charging case also works by just setting it on a wireless charger!
Box includes charge case, earbuds, short USB charging cord and 3 different size ear tips. I did have to read the manual to learn the volume and sound controls....so don't throw it out!

Sweet Shaver!
on November 4, 2021
Posted by: TechMatcher
from Minneapolis
I have owned a few different electric shavers, and this Norelco 9500 is the best yet! Right out of the box and onto the charger, I gave it a full charge and tried it out on my 3 days of growth. No issues at all, fast, smooth and fairly quiet!
It came with a Quick clean pod - a first for me. After unsealing the liquid cartridge and placing it into the pod - I saw how the contraption worked and was pretty impressed. You turn the shaver on as it sits upside down in the cleaning pod, and it cycles on and off - cleaning, de-odorizing and lubricating the shaver all at once. Seems to take about 30-60 seconds. It says to let it sit in there until it dries. Done.
If you've never used an electric razor before, you'll notice that you can shave in about 1/3 of the time. You can even sit down and do 2 jobs at once if you want - or use it in the shower!
Overall, it comes with a case, charger cord, cleaning pod and cartridge. I would have liked a charging stand though like I have for my other shavers....thus 4 stars.

Not Consistent
on October 2, 2021
Posted by: TechMatcher
from Minneapolis
I've had mixed success using this Beurer bluetooth upper arm blood pressure monitor. As other have experienced, I find that it needs to run 3 cycles about 50% of the time - only to error out at the end. I have an average size arm and my wife is in the medical field, so we're using it correctly. The last run usually pumps up to over 200 and deflates so slowly that my arm and hand go numb before it's finished.
When it works, it works quickly and the features of having bluetooth capability my phone for up to 4 people made this an attractive device, but the mixed results has rendered it ineffective for me.
Gave 2 stars for features, and only 2 for functionality.

Comfortable and Crisp!
on October 1, 2021
Posted by: TechMatcher
from Minneapolis
Although I haven't been able to take this on an airline yet - I'm very excited to. These Sony headphones are comfortable and sound great at home! Bluetooth easily paired, and setup went well including the Sony apps available for your phone.
Firmware was automatically updated on first use and battery life thus far has been great. I charged for about 2 hours before using and have used for about 10 hours now with noise cancelling. Hoping to get the stated 20 more (30 hours with NC on).
A surprising find was how good they worked on phone calls. My picky call recipients said I sounded as good or better than my go-to boom headset I use for conference calls. Nice job!
I like the case and audio jack cord that came with - but they could have provided something a bit longer than the 6" USB C type charging cord. What were they thinking? Oh well, I have another cord I can use.
Sound for music is exceptional, strong bass and full sound. Very excited to wear these more.

Superb Sound!
on October 1, 2021
Posted by: TechMatcher
from Minneapolis
I have several soundbars in my house - as most TVs just cannot produce a decent quality audio stream at all. This Samsung 3.1.2 soundbar does not disappoint - and the minute I hooked it up and was cranking some bluetooth tunes, the kids came running to see what was producing such big sounds!
The Dolby Atmos/DTSfeature is nice, but I think it is hard to pull off Atmos sound on a single unit soundbar - so although I do hear a slight difference it's not as good as the Atmos I have setup in the basement with dedicated speakers.
Overall - I'm impressed with the sound and ease of setup - and if you are looking for an entry level start into Atmos - or you're just tired of straining to hear on those little TV speakers - this soundbar will greatly improve your audio experience!

Very capable multi-function printer
on September 12, 2021
Posted by: TechMatcher
from Minneapolis
Just received the ET-4850 multi-function printer and opened it immediately to setup it up. Setup took about 30 minutes using the Epson Smart Panel app on my iphone. It walked me right through it from filling tanks to WiFi with no problems.
Filling the ink tanks was a breeze - hard to believe just how easy it was and how much it can reduce future costs of ink! Great job Epson.
Print setup was easy as well - ran through the adjustments and tweaked a few settings with no issues. Print quality looks good for normal document printing. Photo printing was very good - especially using photo paper.
Scanning was easy to use, but the initial quality suffered. After playing with the resolution and a few other settings, I have it working better. The document feeder works well too. I used it both scanning and copying - flawless.
I only gave a 4 star rating as I can't seem to find a way to set/retain the default scan save location. I want it to go into the "My Scans" folder on my PC.....
Other than the default scanning location issue - this printer is quiet, fast and easy to setup! Sure to be a solid performer in your home!

Interesting concept for a vacuum
on August 11, 2021
Posted by: TechMatcher
from Minneapolis
This is my 4th Shark vacuum - I have one on each floor and at my son's apartment. The Vertex Pro with MultiFLEX is interesting not only in how the unit stores, but how it feels and operates with in the FLEX mode - a bit awkward in my opinion.
I'll admit it does a decent job cleaning, is light and maneuverable and certainly able reach under bed, chairs, couches, etc. The Power fins work great - with two labs and a cat two long haired women in the house, I haven't yet noticed any buildup of hair on the rollers or anywhere underneath.
Battery run time is average, less than the full 60 min as advertised, but I run it at full suction strength. Charging is also a bit awkward - you have to plug the battery into a little 1/4" jack. I would have expected a charging station or something....so now I have yet another power adapter and charger to try not to lose.
Overall - it's a unique concept for a vacuum that provides solid cleaning and flexibility. If you're looking for a cordless vacuum option - this may fit the need for you!

Excellent Productivity Laptop!
on June 29, 2021
Posted by: TechMatcher
from Minneapolis
Let's start right off by saying "I'm very impressed"! I didn't expect the colors and QLED screen to blow me away - but they did and you can't help but notice! Along with that, it's got a very quick and responsive feel, makes me happy. :-)
Seriously though, when I have a chance to test new laptops, I run them through the Passmark Performance Test tool. I've attached the final result from this laptop's test below. It even beat my current "loaded" laptop in some categories like memory and disk. Download the tool for free and compare to your existing system. I'd be curious to see some of your own test results on your existing system - post them in the comments! Remember - this is NOT a dedicated gaming device - more for everyday productivity and entertainment use.
So far, the only CON is has is the charger. Most new thin 2-1 devices and Ultrabooks are leverage USB-C type chargers, this laptop still has a 1/16" jack. It works, just odd that Samsung is still using that.
Speakers are adequate for a small device like this. I expect that for audiophiles, they'll connect to their favorite Bluetooth speaker or use the headset cable.
Overall, I'm extremely impressed with the solid feel, battery life, vivid QLED screen and overall performance of Flex2 Alpha.

Awesome sound and size!
on June 16, 2021
Posted by: TechMatcher
from Minneapolis
I don't often give 5 stars, but I'm very happy with the features and performance of this portable speaker. Quite literally, I've used it every day while my landscaping crew gets the job done!
Bluetooth range is great, sound and bass are full and amazing! The color ring is cool - but obviously in the daylight we don't really notice it.
There are many features to take advantage off, the best in my opinion would be the Party Mode (if you have more than one of these or your friends do, you can connect them together for an immersive sound experience) and Guitar Amp - where this device can be used as a guitar amplifier for you or your strumming friends! Also, a 30 hour battery life.....really a must have especially if you want to charge your phone on this bad boy. Lastly, the IP66 Water-resistant and Dustproof Design. Since this is on the job landscaping - you can imagine how important this is.
Overall - very pleased and I'm sure you will be too. Even the dog likes it (see pictures) - also showing relation in size to a 70 lb Labrador retriever

No more WiFi dead spots. The powerful Nighthawk DST AC1900 WiFi Router along with the DST WiFi adapter eliminates WiFi dead zones. Create additional WiFi coverage right where you want it. The DST Router comes with a year of worry-free set up and support from Geek Squad.
 

Is this also a modem?

No - this is NOT a modem. You need to use a modem to modulate the signal from your Internet provider - after which you can use this router to deliver WiFi or wired Internet through your location.

what router i need that works well with fois

Basically, ANY router will work with ANY internet service. Your Internet company will provide an ethernet cable connection to their modem device, which you can plug into any router to create your own wireless network. NETGEAR has several router products that you can use - with different features depending on your needs, number of connected devices, etc.

Will this allow someone 500 ft away to pick up internet or does anyone know how far of a reach internet can be recieved outside the home is?

There are too many factors to tell you exactly how far wireless signals will reach. Your home construction materials, wall/duct location, placement of the router itself, your landscaping features, fences, etc can all affect the wireless range. If you need to get signal that far away - you're best to place a second router or network extender device. NETGEAR has several products that can solve this for you.

Use your existing electrical wiring to extend your WiFi Internet access to any room in your house. Just plug the PowerLINE Adapter into your modem or router, then plug in the companion PowerLINE WiFi access point to an electrical outlet. It's that easy. With 1000 Mbps speed and Homeplug AV2 support, the PowerLINE WiFi 1000 is perfect for connecting smart TVs, streaming players, and game consoles wirelessly.
 

i want to provide signal strength in different parts of the house. Can i buy additional access points?

Router is on second floor. I want to provide stronger signal in basement and in first floor den and porch.
You can purchase several things - including a better router or a PowerLINE adapter - which uses your home wiring to extend your network to other areas of your home.

Do you need a computer to set it up?

My only computer, a MacBook Air has no Ethernet port but does have usb.
No - it does not require an ethernet connection to configure. You can simply plug it in and connect to the wireless network it provides to configure it.

does this package use powerline technologies

Yes - the basis of this product is that is has built-in powerline wiring technology to communicate with the DST adapter - which would be one of the only ways to get signal into a tough spot without running more cables.

Will this be an OK router for streaming 4k content?

Well - there are two sides to this question. Where is the 4k content coming from? If it's the internet, this router would likely not be a bottleneck - your internet connection would be. If you have 4k content locally on a PC or NAS, this router would be able to handle that as well. So yes - this router could handle 4k content. The point is, this router has a specific feature - the Dead Spot Terminator - built in. You would buy this router to help resolve dead spots in your location by using your electrical wires as network cables.

Will this router work with Windstream?

It does not matter who your internet service provider is. As long as you have the Netgear Nighthawk R7300 Router, you can add up to 16 DST Adapters in location - provided that it shares the same electrical circuit box (since it uses your powerlines as wiring).

Only at Best BuyNETGEAR DEAD SPOT TERMINATOR Wireless Adapter for Nighthawk R7300 Routers: This adapter plugs into an electric outlet to extend the range of your wireless network. The router (sold separately) uses the electric wiring in your home to send a signal the adapter can receive and rebroadcast as a secondary network.
 

Does it only work with the one router?

Yes - to use the NetGear DST adapters, you need to have the Netgear Nighthawk R7300 router - since it has built in powerline networking in it...
