Great Accessory
on April 3, 2017
Posted by: Robs
This charging cradle works with Revolve and Revolve+ speakers, but I used it with the Bose Soundlink Revolve speaker. The speaker simply sits on the cradle to charge, and the cradle makes for a stable, low-profile base. It charged my speaker within a couple hours, and that charge would last about 10 hours. It is important to note that a speaker remains fully functional for playback or phone features while it is charging on this cradle. This is an excellent feature, and it isn't always the case with lesser portable speakers. I find this accessory to be a must-have if you are purchasing a Bose Soundlink Revolve speaker.

Deep. Loud. And immersive, too. The SoundLink Revolve Portable Bluetooth speaker delivers true 360° sound for consistent, uniform coverage. Place it in the center of the room to give everyone the same experience. Or set it near a wall so sound radiates and reflects. This wireless speaker is durable, water-resistant and easy to grab and go - with a rechargeable battery that plays up to 12 hours.

Excellent speaker
on April 3, 2017
Posted by: Robs
The Bose Soundlink Revolve is an amazing speaker. It is cylindrical, wider at the base than at the top, and stands about 6 inches high. It produces very high quality sound, as you would expect from the brand. I listened to music at low, middle, and high volumes, and the sound is very deep and rich. This may be obvious but the sound is projected in all directions. This makes the speaker very versatile when it comes to placement in a room or space. It connects via Bluetooth, and I had no problems connecting my phone to it for music. I was also able to use my phone via the speaker and callers sounded great, but I didn't use it extensively for this purpose. There is a Bose app for the true audio fanatic, but it isn't necessary to enjoy this speaker. It does appear to be tough, as it took a tumble off of a table onto wood floors with no apparent damage or blemishes. The manual mentions that the speaker can go for 12 hours on one charge, but in my experience it went about 10 hours. This is a fine Bose product, and is on a different level than any mid-range portable speaker. I highly recommend it,

Alternative to Traditional Router
on December 14, 2016
Posted by: Robs
The Google Home WiFi System performs very well in the place of a traditional router by supplying fast, seamless WiFi coverage to all corners of my home. It comes with the 3 WiFi points, 3 cords, an ethernet cable, and a quick start guide. Each WiFi point is intended to cover up to 1500 sq ft of a home. My home is not nearly that large, so I cannot speak to the intended full coverage range of 4500 sq ft. If you have a smaller home, you might just want to get a single Google Home WiFi point, or two. Needless to say, three WiFi points in a smaller home does really well! The WiFi points have a low profile and blend in pretty well around the house. You simply connect the base WiFi point to your modem via the ethernet cable. Each point has two LAN ports, so on the base point one port is for the ethernet cable from the modem and the other can be used as LAN for a computer, etc. Each point will display different colors depending on if it is connected to the network or not. There is an App that you can use to control pretty much everything about the Google Home Wifi system, including the installation. It will ask you to scan the QR code on the base, and will walk you through the steps of setting up the remaining points. The app doesn't have great parental controls. It does have the option to setup Guest Networking, and it appears there is functionality to control smart home devices, like Hue light products. Overall, this system is very simple, streamlined, and blends into the home. I don't think it has all of the bells and whistles of a top-end router, but you probably wouldn't be buying this if you have the need for a top-end router.

Great router for multiple devices
on October 26, 2016
Posted by: Robs
This router is perfect for a user that has multiple devices on their network, and shines if the user desires to customize their network. It was quick and easy to assemble the router out of the box by screwing on the 4 small antennae. I connected it to my cable modem with the ethernet cable that was included, and was quickly able to login into the wireless network and setup the router through my browser. Once that was completed, I started moving my devices over to the new wireless network. The router seems to have a very strong signal, as my devices had strong wi-fi signal at various parts of my house and even yard. The new multi-user MIMO technology in the router worked very well as I was able to stream movies to multiple devices at the same time with no hiccups. There is a Linksys Smart Wi-Fi app that you can use to view your network, which is handy because you can setup guest access as needed, and basically manage the wireless network. I have not needed to customize my network because I don't find it to be necessary in my situation, but I would be remiss if I didn't mention that the router can be customized and optimized with several open source programs from the onset. The casual user may never want to dig that much into their network, but that is fine because it isn't required to appreciate this device. This technology should provide some future-proofing, but you will want a nice modem and strong internet signal from your provider to really take advantage of all that this device can offer.

Wi-Fi 6 combined with Velop's Intelligent Mesh™ technology delivers true Gigabit Wi-Fi speeds, up to 5.3 Gbps, to every corner of your home, even the backyard and outdoor smart home devices.

So, it can handle the demands of up to 50 devices and more, from laptops and gaming consoles to smart home devices and 4K TVs, all competing for the same bandwidth. You'll also always have a more efficient Wi-Fi experience with OFDMA that enables more data to and from your devices in a more streamlined manner.

Is this a light headset? If not, will it cause any head pain or anything? Im using this for long term use.
The headset is very light, under 1 pound. Good for long sessions. Some users have reported some tightness or pressure against their ears from squeezing. That is so subjective though.

What does it mean by limitied edition? Like is it only gonna be up and available for a certain time or is it only for the color scheme?
I believe the Sensory Bass is what makes these headphones a limited edition. They will really rattle your head.

Sleep better. Cover unwanted noise with soothing sounds. Bose noise-masking sleepbuds™ are uniquely designed for sleep. They don’t stream music or have acoustic noise cancellation. Instead, these tiny, wireless earbuds use pre-loaded, soothing sounds to cover up unwanted noises, so you can get to sleep — and stay asleep. Plus, unlike traditional earplugs, they’re super comfortable and made to stay in place all night long, even if you sleep on your side. 1. Choose your sound, 2. Set an alarm, 3. Fall asleep without unwanted noise.
How well do these work for silencing out loud snoring from your bed partner?
In my experience, it works very well at focusing my mind on the sounds or tones that are being produced by the earbuds so that other noises become unnoticeable. I can't say for sure that it will drown out every variety of snorer as you will still be able to hear very loud noises. What I liked is that the 10 noises that the earbuds come with seem to have a unique pitch, and I'm thinking that it would be crucial to find the best noise/pitch that matches the pitch of the snoring. I think you would have success.
