Solid Improvement on an Already Stellar Product
on June 17, 2020
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Circle Home Plus is a solid improvement on an already stellar product. For those looking for simple but thorough control over family internet use and site access, this is a no-brainer.
Yes, it will cost you a monthly fee to maintain the top features after your free trial expires. However, my experience is that those who place a high value on what the Circle Home Plus provides will have no problem with the monthly (or yearly) charge.
A great product for a much-needed application.

Excellent Choice for Wireless Earbuds on a Budget
on June 17, 2020
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Skullcandy - Sesh Evo True Wireless In-Ear Headphones are an excellent choice for true wireless earbuds on a budget. Charging, pairing, charging case, convenience - it's all there at a great price. These have all the expected features at this level and are comfortable to wear for extended times.
You should not expect super high-fidelity sound or noise-canceling at this tier, but neither is missed for practical day-to-day use.
One thing I found especially intuitive was the way the control scheme uses the left and right earbuds: left is for going back a song or lowering the volume, right is for going forward a song or increasing the volume. Minor, but to me, appreciated.

Listen to music on the go with this black Sony EXTRA BASS portable Bluetooth speaker. The shockproof, dustproof, and waterproof design allows use on rugged terrain and near pools, while the rechargeable battery offers up to 12 hours of playback on a single charge. This Sony EXTRA BASS portable Bluetooth speaker has an X-balanced speaker unit for well-balanced sound.
Posted by: JBCTECH

The Sony - SRS-XB23 Portable Bluetooth Speaker is pretty much just what it presented itself to be: A comfortably mobile Bluetooth speaker prepped for outside use, long battery life, and capable of producing volume beyond expectations. No complaints on any of these points.
The only thing to keep in mind in getting this speaker is that it is for volume, decent base and impressive coverage. It is not for high fidelity sound. It has a nice solid sound, but there's a slight soft edge to the individual parts which increases to a (very slightly) muffled quality at high volume. When listening nearby, it makes a significant difference as to what part of the speaker is pointing towards you. This is not the case when it is placed further away.
On the other hand, I would expect that you would experience a whole new level of quality by pairing 2 of these units together - one of it's added features.

Excellent Keyboard Case for iPad with Trade-offs
on May 20, 2020
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Logitech - Slim Folio Pro Keyboard Case for Apple® iPad® Pro 11" (1st and 2nd Gen) is an excellent, protective case offering a superb typing experience for the iPad.
Typing is solid and comfortable for extended use. The row of iPad function keys is very convenient and genuinely helpful. The levels of backlighting are nice and the Apple Pencil holder included with the magnetic latch gives a much-needed sense of confidence and security when bringing the Pencil along.
The trade-offs come in two areas:
- When using the iPad for reading in portrait mode or sketching, the case is bulky, loose and awkward. It is clearly intended for typing as it primary use. However, I often read with it on my lap in typing mode and that works fine.
- The bulk added by this case eliminates the slim, light form-factor of the iPad and also makes using the iPad buttons difficult.

Great Balance of Features - Glad We Got It
on May 3, 2020
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The ECOVACS Robotics - DEEBOT OZMO T8 AIVI Robot Vacuum & Mop is a significant improvement in smart robot vacuums. In the past, I've found that those trying to be 'smart' - mapping, video detection, etc. - were so finicky they were practically useless. So we've enjoyed our 2 'bump-n-go' models because they just work.
However, the Deebot OZMO seems to be a good balance. It has smart features and mapping tech, but it keeps running and rarely gives unneeded error messages. The vacuum was also more powerful at picking up and has a slightly lower form factor than our previous ones. All very good.
As for the mopping feature, it's usefulness is probably going to depend on how much mopping surface you have and whether or not it's in a single large space or separated into different zones. The OZMO won't switch between vacuum and mop modes automatically, you have to attach the pad and add water and then take it to the mopping area. Once there it does a good job. So, the convenience of this feature depends on your specific layout and needs. In our case, we have a small kitchen and very small dining area and it's probably easier to grab a quick light-duty mop than to set up the OZMO.
But, as long-time users of robot vacuums, this is a significant upgrade to our previous models and a much-improved balance of smart features and simple reliability.
We are Very Glad we Got this! (the only reason I didn't give 5 starts is because each mode has to be done separately).

Great TV • Good Price • Excellent Features
on April 27, 2020
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Hisense - 75" - H8G Quantum Series TV is a joy to watch. As my first TV in this size range, it took some getting used to - so large, bright and impressive. The built-in Android features make it practically a turn-key purchase.
Using Google Assistant via the dedicated button on the remote is n-i-c-e. Also, being able to chromecast content from my mobile device, was simple and just worked. There are still many attractive features I have not yet been able to try out. But, judging from the way those I have tried are working, I expect all features to work exactly as advertised.
When you add the very competitive price of this unit, you come away with a great TV for a good price that is loaded with excellent features.

Functional for Specific Applications
on March 25, 2020
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The Brother - DS-940DW Compact Wireless Duplex Mobile Document Scanner is a great example of squeezing basic features into a small, portable and wireless form factor.
Setup takes some time and attention, but once you're finished it is ready to use. The most welcome addition to it's feature-set is that it scans both front and back in a single pass.
However, the main feature that a small mobile scanner loses is the ability to auto-feed multiple pages. Each sheet must be manually fed into a narrow slot. This makes it easy for sheets to scan at a slight angle and skew the image.
To be clear, this scanner works well for what it offers. My main concern is with it's practical use. I imagine there are some specific situations where this would be a perfect fit. Personally, I find smart phone apps work fine for casual scanning (though without dual-sided, single-pass of course). When I have larger scanning projects, I need something that offers auto-feed or handles non-standard sizes easily.
For the right use scenario, this is a tremendous product. Just consider your needs first.

Premiere Gaming Keyboard for S-e-r-i-o-u-s Gamers
on January 15, 2020
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The CORSAIR - Gaming K95 RGB PLATINUM XT Wired Mechanical CHERRY MX Speed RGB Silver Switch Keyboard with RGB Back Lighting is packed with top-of-the-line mechanics, an industrial-grade build, and a lighting scheme that provides virtually unlimited customization. Overall width has been trimmed from previous versions and a USB pass-thru has been added. Add the light bar at the top and you've got a premiere gaming keyboard for s-e-r-i-o-u-s gamers.
Neither the price nor the software are for the feint-of-heart, and the keys may be a bit too responsive for dedicated, normal typing usage.
For gamers, you cannot go wrong with this top-tier gaming keyboard

Game like a pro with this Alienware low-profile RGB mechanical keyboard. The 6.5-foot cable with a USB connector offers easy access to a wide range of gaming computers, while the Cherry MX low-profile keys offer fast, accurate responses for dominating the battlefield or race track easily. This Alienware low-profile RGB mechanical keyboard has dedicated volume and multimedia control keys for handling playback seamlessly.

The Alienware - AW510K Wired Mechanical CHERRY MX Low Profile Red Switch Gaming Keyboard with RGB Back Lighting is simply impressive. Fast and responsive mechanical action, comfortable low-profile with 3 levels of height adjustment, and, of course, lots of colors and color schemes.
Requires 2 usb connections for the lights, but has a pass-through that makes up for it. Also need the Alienware software in order to set up and customize the lighting. It can be used without the lights as a standard, high-quality keyboard, but it was made to be used with a dedicated gaming PC and that's when it shines.
For serious gamers, this is a no-brainer.

A Solid Ink-Tank Printer - Easy to Set-up and Use
on December 9, 2019
Posted by: JBCTECH
from Salt Lake City, UT
The HP Smart Tank 551 Wireless All in One Printer is one of the newer inkjet printers that uses ink tanks rather than cartridges for economy and larger print runs. This is a great improvement over cartridges. The quality for this printer is great, the set up is quick and easy, and the app works great. It just works, and for me that's exactly what I want.
One thing to consider with this printer: Due to the ink tank design, it's important to keep the unit level when moving it from one place to another. So, if your use requires frequently relocating the printer, this may not be the best choice. Otherwise, this a great printer.

If you still have to have Internet service what do I need this thing for I already have a router
If you're satisfied with your current wifi you don't need this. If your wifi is older tech and weak in spots, this system should give you a wifi signal that is stronger and speedier.
