Impressive monitor for this price!
on May 8, 2023
Posted by: Samson
Curved monitors are all the rage right now and if you don't have one, then you want one. This monitor is the perfect model if you are wanting to make the jump from a "flat" monitor to a curved one. I found the size at 27" to be perfect for my setup on my desk. I love the look of those bigger curved monitors, but those really aren't practical for me for my desk size or my budget. This monitor has been great so far and its about what I expected at around at this price. is the refresh rate the highest? No, but its also a budget friendly monitor and I didn't have any issues while gaming. Are the speakers the best in class? No, but they worked perfectly fine for me and I still haven't felt the need to hook up any external speakers. I think that say a lot... While this monitor is truly meant for gaming, I decided to put it through its paces as a secondary monitor for my office. I have to say it worked really well and exceeded my expectations. The 27" size is really nice for a secondary screen and the curve adds to both the aesthetic, and the functionality of this screen. No real complaints at al, I would recommend this to anyone wasting to make the jump to a curved monitor.

Great affordable option!
on April 23, 2023
Posted by: Samson
I am transitioning from a wireless security system to a wired one and I have found this to be a real contender and great option for this looking for something affordable, easy to setup and a system that is highly customizable. Out of the box, I thought the setup and installation would be a lot harder than it actually was. There a lot of wires, plugs, etc and I was beginning to feel overwhelmed until I started reviewing the instructions and setting it up. It was very straightforward and easy! Yes it’s a wired system. Yes it will take some planning and strategy on camera and DVR placement. But that will afford you higher quality video, better connectivity, lower latency and all the other benefits of having a wired system not dealing with bandwidth restrictions and buffering of WiFi. Once up and running the pictures and videos were bright clear and honestly better quality than my 4K wireless cameras bc of all the compression associated with transmission over wifi. Very happy and impressed with this system so far.

Perfect choice!

Posted by: Samson
I got this as a gift for my son was initially nervous about him having and being able to use a “throttle” at his age… I wasn’t sure if he would be able to control the bike and maintain control as he accelerated but I’ve been very happy so far! Assembly was nice and quick with all tools that were needed included in the box. I charged it up overnight and it was ready to use! As soon as we had the first nice weather day we took it outside and I don’t think my son has gone a day without riding it yet. I love that it has a high and low setting on it. It gives me peace of mind and assurance that he won’t go too fast when I don’t want him to, but it’s still plenty of fun for him right now. I haven’t ever felt like he was unsafe while riding or the bike was going to get out of control at any time. It’s always performed perfectly safe and has become one of his favorite outdoor activities! Whether we’re walking the dog in the driveway, getting the mail, or just enjoying some nice weather, this has been a fun addition to our home!

Great addition to your home!
on November 2, 2022
Posted by: Samson
I love the features and convenience this lock brings to my home. Not having to run and get a key, or walk around to the unlocked door while working outside, or coming home from work, etc. is a huge convenience and time saver for me. This is the third different smart lock I've installed in my home and the 2nd one from Yale. The build quality is superior to other brands. It looks classy and like a higher end lock. I already have the Yale app and an account on my phone, so setup and adding a lock was a breeze. No issues whatsoever. Installation was just like my other lock and didn't really cause me any trouble. Once installed, it was seamless and calibrated perfectly to my door. I love the ability to invite someone and send them a code. We have a cleaning service that comes once a month and not having to hide a key under the door anymore not only makes me feel safer, it gives me piece of mind that I can turn on and off their code, and assign a day or even time to select when their codes will work. For example, if they're coming to clean at 9am on Tuesday and will be done by 11am or noon, I can select their code to only work on Tuesdays from 8:30am-12pm. PERFECT! In addition, it shows a history or what code was used, and when! I highly recommend it. Perfect addition to your home.

BEST for the price, no question.
on October 12, 2022
Posted by: Samson
For the price, I don't think these can be beat. This is a very simple setup and system. Wyze has been a leader in inexpensive camera systems for awhile now. They've built a reputation for quality products, great price, and no frills. This system is what you would expect... Out of the box you have 3 battery powered outdoor cameras, charging cables/ethernet cables, and a base station. Initial setup was super easy and quick! I already had the Wyze app and account, and pairing this to my account was seamless. The cameras are 1080p, not 4k. That's what I expected at this price point. I've used and tested a ton of different camera systems from almost every brand... These rank right in the middle.... The price is great! But the footage quality isn't the best, and the audio is difficult to hear sometimes. The fact that I can easily move these camera because they're wireless is another plus, but I was sure to have some ambient light nearby, they seemed to perform better for me at night when it wasn't completely black outside. Some of the features you'll WANT are behind the subscription like accessing past recordings, etc... You do have the option to add an SD card for local storage though! If you NEED a camera system and this fits your budget, I would absolutely recommend this. If you are a little more comfortable with technology and prefer to spend more $ to get more features and more for you $, Id go with something at a higher price point.

Perfect setup for office!
on September 30, 2022
Posted by: Samson
You can never have enough chargers… I’ve been needing a MacBook charger for my office since I’ve been getting tired of lugging my charger from home to the office and back every day. Inevitably, I forget it the one day I need it and get frustrated. I got this to keep in my office so I don’t have to take it back and forth anymore.
It’s 100 watts, so it’s plenty of power to keep it plugged in, or that quick charge. My favorite part of this is the 8ft cable. I’m a huge believer in you can’t have a long enough cable, and I love this one! This cable is perfect for my office, it has plenty of length to stay plugged in, and snake around my desk to power my computer all day.
The other feature that sold it for me and really made it a no brainer was the dual port. I have my iPhone charger plugged into that port, and it’s just the perfect work setup for me! I haven’t really noticed a slow down in charging when using both ports at the same time but I’m sure it’s negligible. I haven’t had any issues with it so far and I can’t recommend this enough!

Love it! Great sound and compact!
on August 18, 2022
Posted by: Samson
I've been using this now in my workshop for a few weeks and love it! We've listened to every type of music there is, podcasts, etc. and its performed flawlessly. Battery charge has been great, like really great! I only charged it the after I took it out of the box and its still going strong! It has really good bass and the sound really carries well with this speaker. I like the rubberized tough exterior, and its already been through a few small rain storms, nothing major, but a more than a sprinkle and its all good! The fact that I can use it vertically or horizontally has actually been pretty useful for me lately, we'll stand it up vertically and set it in the tight corners and the sound is great plenty loud. I tried to use my existing Sony app I use for my Sony headphones, but that didn't work. I had to download ANOTHER Sony app in order to use the advanced app functions.... not a deal killer, but I really don't need another app on my phone. Oh well, I did it and its not a big deal. I have to say this has become my go-to speaker, but also my kids favorite... when they're outside this is the speaker they use! Shooting basketball, swimming, etc... I'm really not worried about them hurting this since its rated as waterproof and feels pretty rugged. I would definitely recommend!

Uniquely great gift idea!
on July 30, 2022
Posted by: Samson
I'm a little late to the party, but this is my first smart photo frame! I've honestly always wanted one of these and I'm glad this was my first one, because now the bar is set high... As with everything, this device has an app that makes everything easier... Do I need another app on my phone? No, but I also don't NEED a smart picture frame, touché... I downloaded the app and off we were, Its super simple to select photos to display pictures and choose the settings of those pictures, you can even set the hours in which you want the frame to be on, or to "sleep"...pretty cool! However, the coolest feature of the app is that you can "share" you picture playlist to anyone else with a similar Nixplay smart frame... so I immediately thought of my parents, I can add/share my pictures to their frame at their house, from my phone! Super cool and the best feature of this! I immediately thought of getting a few of these as gifts for the parents and grandparents in our lives to we can share pictures with them in "real time" and add/edit picture playlists on the fly.

Awesome machine, the BEST quality!
on July 30, 2022
Posted by: Samson
I was excited to try this system as I have heard so much about the benefits of this type of therapy for years. Once I received it and took it out of the box, I was extremally impressed with the quality of this product. Its top notch and you can tell from the packaging! Out of the box it was super simple to setup. I plugged it in and let it charge overnight... Once all charge up, I connected the 2 leg sleeves to the hose and voila! Done. It was ready to go! I used it after I got home from my workout and run and I truly enjoyed it! It felt refreshing, and almost massage like... My wife and kids also finally got their chance to try it out, my wife used the "Post workout recovery" 45 minute program after her run and gave it 5 stars! She said she woke up the next day and her legs felt significantly better than they did without using this, and she felt more refreshed. My kids have used the same program after their sports practices and conditioning sessions and love it... they sit in the recliner or in their beds with the legs sleeves on and relax while this works its magic! You can download the app and run this on Bluetooth, or just plug it in and hit the button! I like to use the app as I can customize everything about it... I can work different zones, increase/decrease of pressure, increase/decrease time, run specific programs, etc. I love this, and someone in my house has used it every day for 2 weeks! Battery life has been impressive. We were able to get over 3 sessions (45 min each) on its first charge! Not too bad! Overall, I HIGHLY recommend this product to anyone who consistently works out or trains, even kids!

Great and simple smart lock system!
on July 8, 2022
Posted by: Samson
This is a must have accessory to pair with the Wyze lock! Technically its not necessary as you could unlock using the app alone, but that is more of a pain to have to take out your phone, unlock it, open the Wyze app, then finally unlock the lock.... its much easier just to type the 4 digit code into the keypad and voila! Your in! Setup and install was the best part of this.... it was so easy!! I have used other smart locks and I wouldn't say their install was super hard, but it definitely wasn't this quick and easy! The keypad has some sticky tape on the back of the mounting plate that firmly holds it in place and then you can screw it into the wall... I'm convinced you don't even need to screw it into the wall because the tape is THAT sticky. It holds it very firmly in place and doesn't move at all. This is a must have accessory and I couldn't imagine NOT having this lock and keypad now that I've been using it for a few weeks! It simple, effective, and I love that I don't need to use a new key IF the battery dies. Highly recommend,

Improve your audio experience with this Samsung three-channel soundbar. This unit, which has a built-in subwoofer, channels high-resolution full-spectrum sound and eliminates the need for an extra bass speaker. Use 4K pass-through to connect your Blu-ray player or other UHD device to the Samsung three-channel soundbar for stunning multi-channel audio and a clear picture.
 

The soundbar comes with the wires to connect it right?

It comes with an optical cable to connect it to a TV, but supports connectivity via Bluetooth, Wi-FI (Samsung only, certain models), and HDMI cable (not included). I used Optical cable and it works perfect.
