Decent, value watch band for you Apple watch
on May 15, 2024
Posted by: Bappy
Only needing a basic watchband for my Apple watch I searched the web for something fairly cheap, I came across the Insignia Braided Nylon Watch Band. This is a cost-effective watch band from Best Buy’s Insignia brand. The watch band is made of braided nylon which is comfortable to wear and looks good with a woven pattern. The band attaches to a 38mm, 40mm or 41mm Apple watch. The material is lightweight, you barely notice you are wearing it. This nylon watch band is water resistant and is visually appealing. This band comes is a few colors and I have the “Mauve” color which has a neutral appearance. The band is comfortable to wear. >>>> Pros: >>> good value >>> relatively inexpensive >>> looks good. >>> comfortable to wear >>> waterproof, after all it is braided nylon material. <<<< Cons <<< although this is breathable material, my wrist did seem to have a reaction with some irritation, however it seems after the watch band got wet, it might have rinsed away whatever irritant was impacting my skin.

Looks pretty in pink

The Philips Women's Personal Hygiene electric shaver lets you shave your legs and prevents irritation, which is sometimes associated with a bit of trimming. This Philips electric shaver is cordless battery-powered (using two AA batteries). I found the Philips Women's Personal Hygiene electric shaver to do a decent job shaving, although at times I thought I to exert too much pressure to get decent results. I have used better battery powered shavers in the past and did not think the Philips Women's Ladyshave were what I expected when cleaning up a bit. The design of the Philips Women's Personal Hygiene electric shaver is compact and ergonomic along with being visually appealing with a pink accent. I can not tell you what the expected life of the shaver, but given the lower cost if you left it somewhere during your travels you wouldn’t be calling the hotel seeking its return. >>> Pros >> Pink >> ergonomic >> budget friendly <<< Cons << not durable << mediocre performance << not rechargeable
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Fair update to the 2024 Zephyrus lineup
on April 26, 2024
Posted by: Bappy
ASUS and their Republic of Gamers (ROG) line of gaming PCs continue a good run, including this Zephyrus G14 2024 model. Over the last few years, I acquired a ROG Flow and the 2023 version of this model notebook and have been using them nonstop since. The Zephyrus G14 (2024) is a fairly compact white/crème laptop with a LED pattern on the top cover which flashes and provides cool visual effects. The Zephyrus is packed with hot technology including a updated AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS CPU, NVIDIA RTX 4070 GPU w/8GB of DDR6 memory (both of which are updates from last years Zephyrus model which had a 7040HS CPU & a NVIDIA 4060 GPU), this model also includes 32GB of DDR5 6400mhz RAM, a matte 14" QHD (16:10) 165Hz OLED non touchscreen. Rounding the system out with a 1TB SSD - PCIe Gen4 all with Windows 11 Home operating system.
Ergonomically the Zephyrus feels good and is lighter and thinner than last year, 3.31lbs. A backlit keyboard and large trackpad are featured. Armoury Crate is ASUS’ software which provides you with deep insight and tuning abilities primarily with a CPU and GPU focus. Several preset modes are provided to keep all the performance related black magic behind the scenes. Performance profiles include Windows, Silent, Performance, Turbo (AC Powered only) and a Manual preset. Be aware some of the enhanced performance modes overclock the CPU/GPU and can really raise the temperature and get those cooling fans working.
I will avoid diving too deeply into gaming performance, I only play a few games, but those I do play including ACE Combat 7 looked silky smooth with no dropped frames or glitches. As for my other passion, creating content – including moderately advanced video editing, it handles those tasks well.
So everything I mentioned with the previous model of this line have been addressed. Bigger SSD, more standard memory.
Pros:
- Compact notebook, right sized medium form factor
- Performance oriented, blazing quick CPU and GPU
- 240 watt power supply
- OLED non-touchscreen
- Good gaming performance
- video production abilities, including those that are GPU intensive.

Smart toothbrush, app enabled !
on April 21, 2024
Posted by: Bappy
The Philips Sonicare 9700 Diamond Clean Smart rechargeable electric toothbrush is far from your basic electric model. It is well built, includes seven brush heads of three unique types. These include a Premium All in one which does Plaque removal, Gum Care and Whitening, a two in one which covers Plaque and Whitening, another which does Plaque Remove and Gum Care, and final a Tongue Care only brush head. Key to this model is the inclusion of connectivity via your mobile device to the toothbrush using the Phillips Sonicare app (iOS and Android). The app provides real time feedback and sectional timing (which haptic feedback) to ensure you effectively brush your teeth. The app informs you when you are using too much pressure or moving too quickly. I found the app handy, and it pointed out some of my long-standing brushing habits which perhaps are not effective as I thought. After going through the brushing regiment, I felt like I had a teeth cleaning, not just a brushing. In addition, the app will let you know when it is time to replace your brush heads as well as tracking your overall brushing habits. The handle is well built and has a Power on/off button, intensity indicator, mode/intensity button, mode indicator (which is a lighted word describing the mode), a brush head replacement reminder, battery indicator and a brushing feedback light along the base of the handle. Also included is a USB-A enabled charging/carrying case, a charging glass (which you can use as a rinsing cup, and a standard charging base. When the handle starts charging it provides both visual and haptic feedback.
My thoughts on this smart electric toothbrush…it does have a bunch of bells and whistles, the smart app is not needed but at least initially it did provide me some useful feedback regarding my brush style. I am not sure I will continue to use the app, as it seems a bit of a novelty item. However, if you need to have the best brushing experience, including feedback on your brushing style and effectiveness, this is a desirable model. And for you data nerd, it collect metrics on your brushing sessions, then this is the model for you. On the front of the handle is a battery charge indicator, which provides you a visual indicator of the battery state, an visual indicator of when you need to replace the brush head.
Overall, I am happy with this unit and have yet to find anything that I don’t like about it, the inclusion of all the accessories and multiple brush heads are great. As for the brush heads, the top of the line genuine “A3” offering are not the cheapest to replace, depending on how durable and lasting they are you may be in for some sticker shock when it is time to replace them. Although there are other replacement versions you can buy, including the version that just does Plaque and Whitening. I am unsure if non-Phillips brands are compatible with the smart functions.

>>> Pros >> Mobile connectivity via Bluetooth >> App that provides you with real time brushing feedback >> Ample supplied brush heads >> included charging accessories, including the stand and brush cup <<< Cons << The electric brush kit is a bit on the pricey side of electric toothbrushes << Consumables (brush heads) can get expensive, will have to see how that works out.

High capacity SSD with mid level performance
on April 18, 2024
Posted by: Bappy
Solid-state drives (SSD) are almost standard offerings now when buying a new PC, having one instead of a spinning disk is a no brainer. When upgrade a hard drive in an older laptop or computer, it increases performance and breathes new life into the device. Part of the reason iPads, tablets and mobile devices start “instantly” or restart quickly is because they do not use spinning disks, they use solid state memory. Just the fact that you are getting much quicker read and write file operations on an SSD leads to a large performance gain. The Samsung EVO 990 2TB PCIe 4.0x4/5.0 x2 NVMe M2 SSD literally was simple to install in my laptop. Now if you are not comfortable with opening a PC (or laptop) and getting into the innards of a device then this is not a self-installable item. Especially if you want to replace the existing hard drive which contains the operating system (Windows). Within the SSD drive packaging there is information on how to download the imaging utility that can “clone” your existing drive to your new SSD. The Samsung Magician Software is fairly easy to use, however it does require some additional equipment to clone a device (an enclosure for M.2 PCIe NVMe/SATA SSD which attaches via USB). Again, if you are a novice, don’t expect to purchase a new SSD and successfully tackle this type of project.
The performance of the drive is good and is rated 5,000mb/second read speeds and slightly less for writes. It sits fairly in the middle of the performance range for this type of SSD, with Samsung’s Pro line providing better performance. However, for the price, the Samsung EVO 990 2TB drive is a decent value and is a relatively easy way of increasing performance of your PC or laptop. I did not get the rated read/write speeds due to some limitations of the system I installed the Samsung EVO 990 2TB in apparently, only getting 1394.515 MB reads and 1143.434 MB/s writes.

Multipurpose Rice Cooker/Steamer - works well
on January 31, 2024
Posted by: Bappy
The Cosori five-quart rice cooker includes a nine in one touch control on the front panel, which is a bit more basic than the previous model which seemed to be a bit of overkill control wise. This unit has “advanced fuzzy logic controls” which if you look up the definition basically means this unit adapts and has a few different cooking stages depending on what setting you press on the front panel. The controls also provide a plus and minus button to change some of the preset parameters to meet your needs as will as a multi-function time display. Unpacking the unit was simple and like any other cooking appliance you should really wash the components with a mild soap and water. For this unit that included washing the nonstick inner pot which primarily where the food is cooked in this unit. Also, the unit also comes with a basket if you choose to steam a vegetable or something similar. I also cleaned the removable inner lid which contains a steam cap and release mechanism. In addition, I cleaned the inside of the unit with a damp paper towel. The instructions and quick start guide provided clear directions on getting to know the rice cooker. The user manual also mentioned to run the unit through a steam cycle without food first to familiarize you with the operation of the rice cooker (also it helps eliminate some of the odors associated with manufacturing the unit). Also provided within the user manual was a table on how to cook certain items which I found useful and straightforward. We initially only cooked a cup of long grain white rice to see how it did, the guide stated that should take between thirty-five and forty five minutes, however the rice cooked more quickly than that and the time display on the front panel gradually indicated a even quicker cooking time (perhaps fuzzy logic) ? As for the rice, it was moist, and I fluffed it up with the provided standing rice paddle yielding a really well cooked and fluffy white rice. You can also set a delay timer of up to a twenty-four hours if you want to coordinate cooking just before you arrive home. Also, after the cooking cycle is complete the unit will enter a keep warm mode. I am looking forward to steaming some vegetables with the 2.3 quart steam basket. As well as cooking some Long Grain Brown Rice, Jasmine White rice and especially some steel cut oatmeal, all of which sound promising. As for the unit itself, it seems well built and includes several different items including a measuring cup (which for some odd reason had lines but no measurement units) a recipe book, the earlier mentioned steam basket and the rice paddle. Overall, I am looking forward to using my first ever rice cooker even more, expanding into other cooking use cases. >>> Pros >> simple to operate, with not an overabundance of unneeded settings or controls >> BPA Free materials (for items which have a food contacting surface). >> two year warranty >> Fuzzy Logic seemed to lead to good results <<< Cons << I might prefer a metal based steam basket like a previous model >> States it is BPA free (cooking surfaces), but appears a sticker was added to the box with the warning from the State of California that this product can expose you to lead and BPA, so I am a bit confused. Recently there was an article in Consumer reports on plastics and food contamination, so I am and have always been hyper vigilant regarding this, ensuring I never microwave food in plastic containers. So, I may need to inquire with Cosori on more detail about this unit in regards to food safety.

large humidifier - with smart capabilities.
on January 25, 2024
Posted by: Bappy
The Levoit 6000s is a large humidifier capable of being used to raise the humidity in medium to large sized homes. The unit consists of four core components, a large 6-gallon water tank as the base that has attached rollers for ease of movement (as most people will have difficulty lifting a filled water tank), a support frame which sits above the tank and snaps into the top of the tank, a wick filter frame with four individual filters and a powered top component which contains a fan, controls and a display. The design is quite ingenious as the powered portion (top) pulls air and water into the filters via the filter frame and dispenses humid air through the top. What is really a desirable feature with this unit is it DOES NOT produce a mist and thus if you have hard water, you do not see mineral dust on the surfaces of your home. Mineral dust is a problem I have run into with traditional humidifiers. The unit can be controlled from the top panel, and also pairs with a smartphone app. The smartphone app provides a good history of your indoor and if you setup the smartphone with location services enabled it will gather the currently outdoor levels via the internet. The app also provides full control of the unit. Also included is a filling hose which attaches to your faucet to aid in filling the tank, the hose and faucet fitting had me do a double take, as it is visually interesting. The unit also has a humidity sensor so it can cycle the unit fan to bring humidity levels up to your desired level. I used this humidifier during a bit of a cold dry spell in the southeast US, setting the unit to fifty percent relative humidity level and it mostly kept up and never got below five percent of the level I set. The humidifier started to cycle off and on less as the weather changed and the outdoor humidity increased. Over the course of four days I had to refill the tank at once, I was surprised that it used so much of the six gallon capacity. The fan in this unit was a bit loud at times when really pumping humidity into the air, however it always sounded controlled. The unit also has a sleep mode which reduces the fan noise as well as turning off the blue colored LED display to ensure the light does not disturb you. The unit will remind you when it needs to be cleaned, after three days it started to notify me that maintenance was needed. Constant maintenance is needed with most humidifiers to ensure bacteria or mold does not form on the components and it is no different here. A small brush is also provided to enable you to clean the filters of any mineral buildup, mine had none. The unit also has a dry mode which helps to dry out and prepare the wick filters for user maintenance. The manual also mentions that the four filters should be replaced every 3 months, but depending on your usage you may get more life out of the filters by promptly cleaning them and allowing them to dry out when humidity is not needed to prevent mold growth >>> Pros >> large tank >> strong fan >> humidity sensor >> easily disassembled >>for storage within the supplied fabric bag. <<< Cons: << ongoing issues with availability of the wick filters. << maybe a bit heavy some folks when the tank if full

Toy drone, set your expectations at this price pt.
on January 22, 2024
Posted by: Bappy
The Snaptain E10 drone is designed for people fourteen and older as an entry level product. It is substantially less expensive than drones from other manufacturers and even though it has a camera, I would not consider this a camera drone (one that takes steady video and pictures). The Snaptain E10 drone falls squarely towards the toy drone category, with an adequate camera that takes HD resolution video and low megapixel photos. The price point is somewhat reasonable and out of the box the drone looks quite appealing. However, at this price point it falls in flying characteristics, which actually makes this drone more difficult to fly, which is counter intuitive given it is targeting a novice or first time drone user. The Snaptain E10 is foldable, making it compact, comes with two rechargeable batteries that are rated for about 18 minutes of flight time, a decent, well designed controller which pairs with the drone rather easily and then maintains connectivity with the drone while in flight by using Wi-Fi connectivity. Setting up the drone was fairly simple after the batteries were charged for both the aircraft and the controller. You download the appropriate mobile device software (apps are available for both iOS and Android, with me choosing the latter) and then you are ready to fly. As a First Person View (FPV) drone when flying it you actually feel like you are piloting a mini plane. The controller has dedicated buttons for a few maneuvers, including a dedicated take off and land button, as well as the ability to circle an area or flip the drone upside down. In addition, there is a emergency power off button that will quickly cut the power after pressing for three seconds, at that point the drone will drop from the sky. The manufacturer recommends that you fly when no wind is present and that certainly is the case due to the lack of power in the motors driving the propellers and the lack of a level sensing feature, which makes it quite the choir to fly with any wind. Takeoff and landings can be a bit abrupt at times. I would absolutely try to fly this drone under the best conditions, meaning no obstacles, no wind in a relatively flat area. All drones per FAA regulations have to stay within your line of sight and given some of the limitations of this drone and controller you should never lose sight of the drone. Unlike more expensive drones, this does not come equipped with any GPS functionality, so there is no “return to home” function if your controller loses the connection to the drone. As for the video, the sensor in the camera is marginal, it will take HD video, but the contrast and saturation is a bit odd and the picture often “blooms” and is less than clear. I did have some strange bands in the video I took which was present both on the screen of my phone while flying (transmission between the drone and phone) and on the video it recorded to the MicroSD card into the provided card on the bottom of the drone. This banding effect seemed associated with the motors. As for the flying experience, it was a bit difficult, and I think some of the more expensive drones with GPS and a gimble based camera are actually easier to fly. So really it becomes what would you rather do ? Spend considerably more money on a more sophisticated drone with a better flying experience but at the cost of losing or crashing four to seven hundred dollars or something less expensive. Can you have fun with this drone within reason, absolutely – but if you catch drone fever, be prepared to step up to a better product. >>> Pros >> looks more expensive than it is >> controller is a decent design >> takes video/photos >> if you lose it or crash it you will not be happy, but given the price point it will generally not break the bank >> nice accessories provided, including a case, a second battery and extra propellers <<< Cons << no GPS or stabilization << no return to home << camera quality is marginal << no wind resistance at all, only can fly without wind present << controls are less than precise.

Great Massager with multiple attachments
on January 9, 2024
Posted by: Bappy
The Sharper Image Powerboost Plus Deep Tissue Percussion Massager is a great device. The massager comes in a compact case which stores neatly and keeps things organized. The case is sturdy and stands upright. There are 6 attachments that are used for different areas on the body and up to 7 speeds. The device charges using a USB C charging cable, which it comes with. No block included which is a con. Also no place in the case to store a block, which would come in handy if you travel with the device, another con.
I found the device a little large to grip, in that it is slightly larger than a vacuum handle. It also has a good bit of weight to it, making the grip harder to use over time. Additional con in my opinion.
The device does not have any annoying vibrations that other devices do have. My teeth did not rattle like other devices I have tried!! It is quiet as stated on the box.
The compression attachment feels so terrific on my sore back from a sore muscle that never seems to go away. It is very gentle but alleviating at the same time. I also used the round attachment on my shoulder where I have bursitis and found relief as well. I used the lowest setting on both areas so as to not to be stiff and in worse shape than when I started using it.
Overall I would highly recommend the Sharper Image Powerboost Plus Deep Tissue Percussion Massager to any household. It is like having your own home massaging device. Also this would make a great gift for anyone!!

A traditional looking watch - with a dash of smart
on November 27, 2023
Posted by: Bappy
Having not ventured into the smart watch world the Withings - ScanWatch 2 - Heart Health Hybrid Smartwatch seemed like an interesting choice. The ScanWatch 2 otherwise looks like a traditional watch, however once you look closely you will see a small circular OLED non color screen which can display small messages and notifications. In addition the screen can be used to set options on the phone. Withings health related products have a good reputation and the sensors on this watch can detect heart rate, gather an Electrocardiography (ECG) measurement, get a measurement of your blood oxygen, Respiration rate, Resting heart and Skin temperature rate. Also it can keep track of Calories burned, Distance swam, Distance traveled, Duration of exercise, Duration of sleep stages, Hours slept, Laps swam, Pace, Route, Running/Walking speed, Stairs climbed, Steps taken. What I found intriguing is the sleep health feature to measure key metrics during sleep. I gained a new insight into my sleep habits and truly provided me with information I have not had before. As for setup, the watch easily paired via Bluetooth with my iPhone as well as integrating with Apple Health and providing that app with additional data. The Withings iOS app has a lot of capabilities, although I would not call it overly intuitive. The app does allow you to configure notifications on your watch from some of the mobile apps on your phone, I chose initially to be notified of several events such as texts, phone calls and a notifications from a few other apps. Notifications are scrolled through the OLED screen which provides basic display capabilities. I did need to purchase a bigger watch bands online, as the one out of the box was not large enough to fit around my wrist. As a matter of fact this traditional looking watch looks a bit small on my wrist, however it does not diminish the usefulness of this watch. If you are not yet ready for a full feature smartwatch or dislike the look the Withings ScanWatch 2 Heart Health Hybrid Smartwatch seems like a good middle ground with some world class health sensors. However if you are looking for capabilities like you would get in a traditional full feature smartwatch, this may not be the one for you.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Automatically go from hundreds of mystery folders to a visual view in the photo and video Organizer. See your best photos thanks to auto-curation.

And create and share beautiful printed artwork, new dynamic slideshows, photo and video collages, animated GIFs*, and full-length movies. Being creative is even easier with the Elements bundle.
Will this be a CD software or an internet download version?
DVD media was included in my package, however my computer doesn't have a DVD drive so I had to goto Adobe's site to download the installations
