It Sucks Really Good! Convenient for Pet Owners
on November 10, 2017
Posted by: EXWOLF
from Anaheim, CA
This cordless pet stick vacuum has really made life a lot easier for me when it comes to cleaning up pet hair and dirt. I used to sweep all the pet hair and dirt on the floor so it is definitely a big upgrade. It is very easy to maneuver around the house and is lightweight enough to carry. The different attachments to clean up corners and hard to reach areas really come in handy and are simple enough to take on and off. I have used it a couple of times for my tile and hardwood floors and although I feel the suction isn’t as strong as I had hoped, it does the job well and my floors are left pet hair free. I liked that it displays how much battery is left and after a couple of quick uses the battery still has about 75 percent left. I’ve only had to remove the dust cup once because it holds a lot of dirt so I don’t have to clean it out that often. After use I can easily hang it up on the wall mount that was provided or place standing up on a corner because it’s very thin and doesn’t take a lot of space. Overall I’m really please with this vacuum and happy I don’t have to go back to sweeping everyday.

Average Pair of Truly Wireless Headphones
on October 28, 2017
Posted by: EXWOLF
from Anaheim, CA
The Jaybird Run truly wireless headphones offer a mix of negatives and positives.
Positives:
- Great Fit. They are snug and never once fell out of my ear. I was never afraid of them falling out even on long distance runs.
- Good Noise Cancellation. The headphones themselves don't have any built in noise cancellation features but they do a good job at cancelling ambient noise since they go right into the ear and fit so snug.
- Small/Stealthy Design. They are one of the smallest truly wireless headphones in the premium market. They don't stick out really far from your ear. The case is also tiny so you can keep the case in your pocket for charging or storing purposes.
- Decent Price. For a premium brand they fall in the right price range for someone looking to get workout headphones without the cord.

Neutral:
- Average Sound Quality. I'm not too impressed with the sound quality but the Jaybird app allows you to change the sound signature to your liking. There is very minimal amount of bass.
-Battery Life. They will last 4 hours on one charge which is very little but the charging case has 8 hours worth of charging on it. Since you have to store them in the case after use you almost never run out of battery unless the case is out of it. That being said I can't be too upset with the battery life.

Negative:
- Pairing isn't the smoothest. The first time I attempted to pair my Jaybird Runs was when I removed them from the case and pairing started by itself. Unfortunately they did not pair right away and I had to manually start pairing on both headphones themselves and open the Jaybird app to do it.
- Sound Cuts Out: Jaybird recommends using these headphones on your right side of the body via armband or in your right hand or pocket. This will minimize sound cut outs but I still experienced it multiply times throughout my uses. (note: on google pixel phone)
-Playback Controls are Awful. Each side of the earbud serves a function whether it be play, pause, skip, or activate voice assistant. This was a bad experience for me as play/pause would only work a fraction of the time.

Overall, I think the Jaybird Runs could use a little bit of improvement. They are not awful by any means and the great fit is definitely a positive. Although the sound signature is not the best it still provided a good listening experience when I was out on a run when it wasn't cutting out the left earbud. I would still recommend the Jaybird Runs because of the price, comfort, cordless experience, and their compatibility with both Android and iOS.

Philips Norelco OneBlade Pro hybrid electric trimmer and shaver, QP6520/70 (14 length comb)

Good Facial Hair Trimmer
on October 18, 2017
Posted by: EXWOLF
from Anaheim, CA
The Philips Norelco OneBlade Pro serves a simple purpose but is a good tool for quick trimming of facial hair. The precision trimming comb is easy to use as turning the dial marks the amount of length you want left in mm from 0.4 to 10mm. The trimmer has a great 90 minute battery life and comes with a charging base. Philips Norelco has quick charging technology in the OneBlade Pro and I was able to get a full charge in under 20 minutes. The battery life is displayed right on the handle above the power button for a quick glance at how long you have until you need a recharge. The trimmer is water resistant so you can take it with you in the shower.
Overall, I really enjoyed the trimmer for the purposes of accurately trimming to the length I want with the precision trimmer. I believe that without the trimmer the single blade is not very good a producing a clean shave. It will not get all the hairs which is a bit frustrating but the trimmer is what makes this product worth it.

Enjoy up to 10 hours of wireless audio with these Sony noise-canceling headphones. They produce rich sound by playing at audio frequencies of 3-40,000Hz and have a closed-back design that blocks outside noise for a better listening experience. These Sony noise-canceling headphones sit comfortably behind the neck and work with or without the 1m wire.

Best Noise Cancelling Experience I Have Ever Had
on October 18, 2017
Posted by: EXWOLF
from Anaheim, CA
I owned various pairs of noise cancelling headphones with all sorts of different noise cancelling technology but these Sony WI 1000x are the best I have ever used. I work at a dinner theater that gets extremely loud so I decided to put them to the ultimate test and at just 80% volume I was able to cancel out all the noise! It was incredible and the sound quality is just phenomenal. They fit really well and Sony provides 6 other earbuds to try out if you don't like the ones that are already attached.
At $300 these are premium headphones and I believe they are worth every penny. Combined with the Sony Headphones App they are just incredible with all the different features you can use. You are able to control for ambient sound in case you want to hear the world around you clearer so you're not completely tuned out to your surroundings. There is also a feature called adaptive ambient control that allows the app to know what type of activity you are doing so that the level of ambient noise you hear changes based on that activity. Along with that, you can also test for atmospheric pressure so that you have the best noise cancelling experience you can get whether on the ground or in the air on a plane. There is a toggle called Sound Quality Mode which you can use to switch between Bluetooth codecs which can either improve connection quality or sound quality. For example, my phone is running android Oreo so toggling on "Priority on Sound Quality" will use the LDAC codec which is Sony's bread and butter for the new age of great Bluetooth sound quality so that it sounds like it was meant to sound for a live performance. If you switch to "Priority on Stable Connection" you switch to SBC. Other features you can use with the headphones are Surround(VPT), Equalizer, and Sound Position Control which allows you to pinpoint from what direction you want to hear the sound. These three features can only be used while on "Priority on Stable Connection" so just keep that in mind. One really underrated and overlooked feature is the "vibration for incoming call" feature which I really enjoyed. The neckband will vibrate noticeably if you are receiving a phone call and I think that it a neat feature that isn't mind shattering but it is a nice addition.
The headphones themselves are sleek and very comfortable. However there are some flaws. They are not water or sweat resistant which is a real bummer especially since I am a runner and a very active person. The Adaptive Sound Control feature would be great to use while running but it's not something that would sway me away from these headphones. The 10 hour battery life is just about right for a neckband style pair of headphones. You generally see over the ear at 20-40 hours, with neckband from 10-12 hours, and regular in the ear headphones between 5-8 hours. The headphones are portable but they are not something you can just stuff in your pocket and pull them out whenever you want. The physical buttons for playback control aren't tough to reach but they are a bit awkward to press since they are around your neck on the left side. Being right-handed, I would've preferred them on the right side but that's just me.
Overall, I am really enjoying what Sony has made here and I love the noise cancelling. The noise cancelling itself justifies the price for me because it is so good and the sound quality is just too amazing to pass up.

Best Overall Truly Wireless Headphones
on October 4, 2017
Posted by: EXWOLF
from Anaheim, CA
As a big player in the audio business I was very excited to learn that Bose was releasing truly wireless sports headphones. I was even more excited to receive them and experience their amazing sound, fluid connectivity, and comfortable secure fit. Now time to breakdown these headphones and dive deeper into them through each category that can be judged.
Design: The aesthetic design while not pleasing to the eye should not be judged too harshly. While being surprising light, they are also big and bulky looking almost like having a beetle sticking out of your ear but it serves a good purpose. The unique design allows for better pairing, battery life, physical tactile buttons, and for keeping the headphones securely fit inside your ear. With 30 minutes of constant running at just under 6 min/mi pace I never once had trouble with the headphones slipping out of my ear. I have to admit I was a bit nervous at first but I eased up as the sweat started to pour down my cheek and the headphones would not come out of place. I definitely felt much more comfortable to wear them playing basketball after the running test and they held up to that too. The tactile buttons on the right earphone are very clicky and have several functions from volume up/down, pause/play, answering phone calls, activating voice commands, and skipping tracks which is nice to have over motion gestures that other true wireless headphones have.
Overall Design Score: 5/5
Overall Design Score: 5/5
Sound: If you've ever owned a Bose audio product then you are probably familiar with the prestigious sound they emit. These headphones keep up with that reputation and consistently drive pure and rich sound signatures. Whether you're playing pop, rock, rap, edm, or even ska music these headphones are able to create a beautiful sound signature that closely matches the artists intent. Volume plays a large factor in the quality of sound and I found that the best quality of sound for any style of music came at around 75% volume. The bass was very noticeable while not drowning out the mid and high level frequencies. At 100% volume the sound does not get distorted but you start to lose more of the bass signature as the highs are clearly dominant.
Overall Sound Score: 5/5
Overall Sound Score: 5/5
Battery Life/Charging: While the battery life is not very impressive when it comes to Bluetooth headphones it is impressive in the truly wireless game. At 5 hours per charge we get battery life that is about 1 to 3 hours better than the recent competition. The charging case is also capable of holding a 10 hour charge and the headphones snap very easily into place so that they could be charged. Even just 15 minutes in the case will give you about 45 minutes of listening time depending on the volume you are using. Personally, I think 5 hours of battery life is adequate because I am generally only spending about 30 minutes to an hour doing physical activity so even if I max out my activity time per use I am only charging after every 5th activity. That is roughly every 5 days for me which I am totally fine with.
Battery Life/Charging Score: 5/5
Battery Life/Charging Score: 5/5
Connectivity/Pairing/Ease of Use: This category is bundled up because of how closely they relate to each other. Pairing the headphones to my smartphone(Pixel XL) is one of the easiest experiences I have ever had. As soon as you detach the headphones from the case the pairing process begins and you simply open up the Bose Connect app and it does everything for you including detect the headphones you are trying to pair which are the Bose Soundsport Free Wireless Headphones. From there you are prompted with instructions on how to get started and what capabilities you have with your new set of headphones. Within the app you have control over music playback, volume, and the ability to locate your headphones if they go missing. It is a simple app to use and a must with this pair of headphones. As far as connectivity is concerned I had quite a mixed experience. For the most part the headphones stay connected without any issues but when I had my phone in an armband the connectivity would dip out for half a second and reconnect particularly in the left earphone. This could be due to the fact that the armband somehow obstructs the signal or slightly poorer connectivity when outdoors. I have had this issue with other Bluetooth headphones before when outside and while the issue is still present in this pair of headphones it is not nearly as bad. However, the half second dip did happen a few more times while indoors while just calmly sitting in my chair with my phone on my lap.
Overall Connectivity/Pairing/Ease of Use Score: 4/5
Overall Connectivity/Pairing/Ease of Use Score: 4/5
My overall impression of the Bose Soundsport Free Wireless Headphones is extremely positive and I am a very happy owner of them. They sound great and fit perfectly inside my ear so I do not have to worry about them falling out mid workout when my sweat is dripping off my body. It is also great that they are both sweat and rain resistant. Although you cannot take them for a dip in the pool they are still great for nearly every activity. I wear a hat and glasses when running and the headphones did not get in the way which I was very appreciative of since they go directly in the ear and not around it. These will definitely be my go to headphones in the gym, on the court, and on the track for a long time coming.

Ideal For School or Business Presentations
on September 27, 2017
Posted by: EXWOLF
from Anaheim, CA
The Epson - EX5260 projector is great for projecting power point presentations, excel spreadsheets or charts, and even video. The projector is extremely bright and I noticed that text is very clear when the right adjustments are made to the focus ring.
The projector is very easy to connect to and has a variety of methods to connect. There is a USB-A port, USB-B port, HDMI port, computer port, and a video port all for displaying your material. If you are using all the ports in the projector you can easily switch between source via the buttons on the top of the projector or with the remote control that is included in the package. All video sources I tested were very clear but some were more responsive than others. Using the computer port when connected to a laptop provided lag free response in slideshows and even video. The USB-B port was a bit more laggy but using this port allows for any audio from presentations or videos to play through the projector itself. I would not recommend using USB-B for video because there is a lot of lag. Anything with high bandwidth usage should be used in conjunction with an HDMI port.

I would not recommend using USB-B for video because there is a lot of lag. Anything with high bandwidth usage should be used in conjunction with an HDMI port.
The Epson EX5260 also allows wireless connectivity through a wireless receiver that is included in the packaging so don't throw out the box without taking out this receiver first because it is not pre-installed! If you wish to connect your phone or computer wirelessly you simply have to input the receiver into the USB-A port and configure the wireless settings on the projector to either quick or advanced. The Quick setting allows you to smoothly use the Epson iProjection app to easily connect your smartphone for viewing photos, pdf's, webpages, the camera, and even cast your screen through the projector. Casting the screen is not very smooth as there is a delay in response time but it is useful for projecting files that the projector does not automatically support through the app such as PowerPoint. Another thing to note is that if you are using the wireless receiver to connect your smartphone and you decide to connect to the projector's network then you will not have internet access on your mobile device. You will not be able to pull up any material that requires an internet connection unless you connect the projector to a wireless network and the mobile device to that same network. That will grant you access to media files online such as your Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive.
The audio for the projector does get loud but it is not a great sound so I would recommend using an external device such as dedicated computer speakers from a computer or connecting an audio device to the projector itself via the audio ports. When running sound and video from a computer I did not notice any delays. The only time I noticed sound delays was when I was connected wirelessly through the projection app.
My overall review is a positive one for this projector because it can handle a variety of things someone such as myself needs. The brightness of the projector allows me to showcase clear slideshows even with direct sunlight entering my workplace. I am able to connect multiple media devices to the projector and seamlessly switch from one to the other. I can have a file of a musical score highlighting all of the important key changes on one source and a video rendering on another source of that score to easily move from one to the next.(Note: Split source is not functional on this projector model. You can only view one source at a time). I love being able to move around a room freely with my smartphone in my hand controlling what I am projecting at what particular moment in time. The included remote control also allows for free movement during a slideshow as you can control the slides with the remote for USB-A connections. This projector is just extremely useful for my everyday life in teaching and preparing for school presentations. It is very small and thus very portable. It can easily fit into any regular sized backpack but also comes with a carrying case for ease of transportations and protection from scratches. I am genuinely excited to continue the use of this projector and I know if you decide to pick one up for yourself you won't be disappointed when you're pitching your next idea at the business meeting or simply practicing for your final project in school.

Most Comfortable Mouse I've Ever Used
on September 21, 2017
Posted by: EXWOLF
from Anaheim, CA
The Logitech MX ERGO with a trackball mouse is truly the most comfortable mouse I have ever used. I thought the 20-30 degrees slant would make no difference with comfort but it works wonders. I say 20 to 30 because with the added wedge you can achieve a 30 degrees slant but without it you can only achieve 20 degrees. I personally prefer to use the mouse at the 20 degrees slant pretty much at all times.
The mouse also has 6 programmable buttons that you can remap via the Logitech options software that you can find by searching logitech.com/options. I have a windows 10 pc and the software downloaded quickly and I was able to change the pointer speed to my liking. Just to the right of the trackball there is a button dedicated to something Logitech is calling precision mode which drastically lowers the DPI so you can make those fine adjustments when working on graphic designs or any other piece of art on your computer.
The mouse is wireless and supports Bluetooth pairing with up to two devices but it also comes with a unifying receiver in the case that you do not have Bluetooth on your computing device. You can even hook up the mouse to your game console or smartphone/tablet and all functions of the mouse including the programmable buttons will work. You can also use FLOW which is a feature by Logitech that allows you to move your cursor from one computer to another as long as you are on the same wireless network and the mouse is connected to both computers(Note: You must have Logitech Options also installed on both computers). With this feature you can copy and paste files seamlessly between two different computers.
Overall, I believe the MX ERGO is a truly amazing mouse and the comfort level is through the roof. It's great for browsing, working on school documents, design, and even just sitting back on a couch with the mouse on your lap browsing through movies with your computer or smartphone connected to a TV. It is the ultimate comfort mouse and the trackball was extremely easy to get used to.

A Furry Pet Owners Must Have!
on September 18, 2017
Posted by: EXWOLF
from Anaheim, CA
This Shark Ion Rocket is a great cleaning tool especially for those with pets who constantly shed around the house. The suction power has two settings: one for heavy duty suction and the other for extended runtime for everyday cleaning. It comes with a pet multi tool which was amazing for cleaning my couches and my car seats! I love the portability of the vacuum since it is handheld and the battery compartment is directly on there. Each different tool can be connected to the main handheld and easily removed by the click of a button. The floor nozzle does shine a light on the floor but it isn't very bright so I would recommend not using it into the dark. The vacuum is bagless but the dirt compartment is very small so you'll find yourself emptying it out very often if you have a dirty room. That being said, this vacuum is mainly for small rooms and cleaning shelves, cars interior, couches, and sucking up cobwebs from the ceiling. I am really enjoying this vacuum and the portability is just awesome to have. It's very easy to use and has a long lasting battery that has a battery indicator so you could see if you need a charge soon. Great vacuum and now my clothes and food don't have pet hair in/on them.

Great Monitor for any PC or Console
on August 27, 2017
Posted by: EXWOLF
from Anaheim, CA
This Alienware monitor is exceptional on my Dell Inspiron gaming desktop but it is also great for console gaming. If you are looking for a monitor that can perform well for both PC and console then you can't go wrong with this one. The monitor sports two HDMI ports and a DP port for fluid gaming. You'll get to experience the true potential of this monitor with a compatible CPU so if you have a computer with an AMD processor and graphics card then you will be able to use it's free sync technology. I tried my desktop with both AMD free sync on and off and the difference is very noticeable in graphically intense games like Forza Motorsport. One of my favorite things about this monitor is the very thin bezels which gives you more screen to play with and the ability to add a second monitor where you'll get a seamless blend between the two screens. The monitor is also very versatile and can be manipulated to a position where you'll be comfortable gaming or performing other tasks on it. The response time on this monitor and refresh rates are also very impressive at 1ms and 240Hz. My only issue with this monitor is that it does not have integrated speakers so you'll have to use an external setup or connect some headphones to the audio jack beneath the monitor. It's an easy fix so I didn't knock off a star for it. Overall, this monitor is amazing and it will be my newest gaming monitor for both console and PC gaming. The picture quality is astonishing and my games have never looked so good.

Great Beginners Gaming Desktop
on August 24, 2017
Posted by: EXWOLF
from Anaheim, CA
Firstly, I would like to mention that I am primarily a console gamer and had only played PC games on a very weak laptop with minimal graphics. I have always wanted a true gaming PC as I was gifted a ton of games on Steam by my friends and family members. I have to say that I am truly amazed at how this Dell gaming PC handles graphically intense games such as Forza Motorsport and Battlefield 1. I will now list my Pros and Cons with this desktop and why I think it deserves the highest rating.
Pros:
1 - This desktop comes with an AMD Ryzen 7 processor which is able to handle multitasking and gaming with ease. The boot up times are quick and I was able to hop onto my games and applications in a snap.
2 - The Radeon Rx 580 graphics card is no slouch as games look stunningly beautiful at high resolutions. The Radeon settings applications is simple to use and allows you to adjust your graphic settings for gaming, video, and display. It is extremely useful for setting adjusting the graphic settings for each specific game you have and monitoring and controlling your GPU activity, temperature, clock, and fan settings through their overclocking features. I was able to see how hard my computer had to work for each game and adjust the settings to my liking.
3 - With a 1 TB hard drive and 16 GB of Ram I should have enough memory and storage for all my files and games. I did notice that installing games took less than a minute for small files and less than 10 minutes for large files just over 20 GB.
4 - The desktop is extremely quiet and not noticeable at all even when the fans are kicking.
5 - Extremely easy for a beginning PC gamer like myself to figure out the tricks to use the full potential of the desktop.
Pros:
1 - This desktop comes with an AMD Ryzen 7 processor which is able to handle multitasking and gaming with ease. The boot up times are quick and I was able to hop onto my games and applications in a snap.
2 - The Radeon Rx 580 graphics card is no slouch as games look stunningly beautiful at high resolutions. The Radeon settings applications is simple to use and allows you to adjust your graphic settings for gaming, video, and display.

Cons:
1 - Like many other windows PC's the desktop comes pre-installed with McAfee bloatware which really bogs down computer performance and even slowed down the downloading of my games. I uninstalled McAfee and substituted it for a different protection software which did improve my PC performance.
2 - The desktop ships with a standard keyboard and mouse which should almost definitely be replaced with a gaming keyboard and mouse if that is your preference. The keyboard is not backlit and feels a bit awkward to type with.

Overall conclusion: I didn't find many things about this PC that I didn't like and even one of those things that I didn't like didn't have to do with the desktop itself but the items that ship with it. As a beginning PC gamer I am truly satisfied with this Dell desktop. AMD's software in this unit is amazing and I am sold on PC gaming. If you are looking to get into PC gaming and have decent budget and would rather have a desktop over a laptop then this unit is definitely worth a look.

Does the Sony 1000XM3 InEar have it's own volume control? I need to amplify my listening, while my wife listens to the normal TV volume. I have a pair of the Sony 1000XM# over the Ear Head Phones and of course they DO have volume control. Thanks.
Yes they have their own volume control. Volume can be controlled with your phone or through a voice assistant.

Can i use this during my workout sessions I have read articles which says it is not sweat proof and water resistant. I need to understand how bad can it get or damage the product if used during the workout? Is it ok to use or not recommended for workout
These are more for casual listening than for working out. Try out the jaybird xt run for working out or beats pro.

Get your floors sparkling clean with this Bissell Spinwave powered mop. It’s made for sealed hard surfaces, and it uses washable cleaning pads that can be customized according to the type of flooring and level of cleansing the job requires. This Bissell Spinwave powered mop swivels to let you access hard-to-reach places.
Can I use murphys wood soap?
Best to use Bissell products with this mop. Otherwise it voids the warranty if something were to happen to it.

Create a reliable internet connection throughout your home with this Google Wi-Fi system. The convenient package of three connectivity points effortlessly covers even large homes up to 4,500 square feet. This Google Wi-Fi system eliminates uneven bandwidth usage among multiple devices, including cellphones and tablets, for an unimpeded connection that doesn't lag behind.
In some rooms in my house the WiFi signal is VERY weak and in some cases its not available. If I use an extender, it creates another WiFi ID which is different from the main one assigned to the router. Does this device creates another WiFi ID?
If you connect this directly to your modem it will replace your Wifi ID that you created. If you have a router/modem combo then you will create a new network so you will have two networks( existing network plus Google Wifi network). Wireless range extenders halve your bandwidth while Google Wifi access points do not. Use directly with modem to solve your double networking problem. Otherwise you may need to put one of your routers in bridge mode which essentially destroys your routers features and simply makes it into an expensive device that extends the range of your Wifi like your range extender that you mentioned earlier.

Will these work on a regular Verizon broadband? They don't offer the fios out where I liv yet
As long as you have a modem to connect it to it will work. So the answer is yes since you need a modem regardless of what ISP you have.
