Great quality microphone
on December 17, 2019
Posted by: CAPNDigital
The Blue Yeti X USB microphone is a great product. Its solid and quality design provide excellent sound quality right out of the box. Great for voice recording (my primary use)
The Yeti X has a highly sensitive pickup which offers clarity but beware it can also pick up more room noise if you are using a high gain or sitting too far from the mic. It offers several common pick up patterns that are selectable from a rear button with an illuminated display.
This new model offers an multicolor LED to show current gain setting or input signal - however in practical use (in a more near-mic setup) you really can’t see the input metering - but it can be helpful for quick setups - or checking things in a live setup.
Aimed at podcasters, gamers and streaming applications you can you the Logitech GHUB to apply sound processing and even customize the LED colors (if you prefer). The available sound processing is nice for some instances (such as live streams - with compression, limiting, and eq plus various presets) but I prefer to add processing in Audio editing software afterward for more non-destructive control.
The mic is nice and securely packaged but a little excessive with an outer sleeve that could have been simply printed on the main box making unpacking a bit easier and less wasteful. It comes with a desk stand which is nice, but personally I like to use a boom arm when recording as the stand picks up noises from the stand on a desk or table.
Overall this is a fantastic microphone and I am happy with the purchase.

Dentist office cleaning
on December 17, 2019
Posted by: CAPNDigital
The Oral-B Genius X gives you the feeling of having a professional dentist office cleaning. It comes with three different brush heads to try, I started with the cross action and really like it! The different settings are nice giving the ability to have a gentle brushing to a more aggressive “professional” cleaning.
The app is helpful to establish a better pattern of brushing. I used it multiple times for the A.I. feature, it is decent at approximating which zone you are in on your teeth. Not a feature I would use frequently, but nice at first with the new toothbrush. You can also change the color of the light on the handle via the app which is a fun feature.
The travel case is nice and being able to plug into the case to charge the handle is a good feature when packing light for trips.
I would have liked it the charging base had storage for brush heads, in my house we share the handle and need that storage. That is my only real con for this unit.

This Oral-B is a great replacement for my older electric toothbrush.

Just wow!
on October 26, 2019
Posted by: CAPNDigital
This is my first GoPro and I am absolutely floored at the power and quality in such a small package! There is, for a first time user, an absurd amount of variations in the menu settings. You can take photos, videos, time lapse, slow motion videos and also adjust the quality from standard to 4k, just to name a few settings. It was a bit overwhelming at first, but between the manual and playing with the unit it was not difficult to get the hang of it.
Jumping in the water taking a video and then coming to the surface in the same shot, I was quite pleased with the quality of the video. The glass protecting the lens let the water slide off and didn’t leave much in terms of water spots, that was impressive!
The GoPro app on my iOS device worked well and I was able to transfer the media for viewing and light editing.
The two cons I have for the camera are the battery life and controlling the camera through the phone app. The battery only lasted around 1.5hrs of heavy use (screen at full brightness, 4k video, and a lot of touch screen use) and I have not been able to control the camera with the app, it always states update failed. I am sure in time a firmware update will fix the remote control app issue.
Overall I am very impressed with the quality of photos and videos the GoPro Hero 8 produces. It is a well built device and I have really enjoyed getting outside and using the GoPro Hero 8!

Works as expected
on October 26, 2019
Posted by: CAPNDigital
The Philips - Philishave Electric Shaver is easy to use and simple to figure out. Charged from the box in about an hour, but one thing I thought was great is it worked while plugged into the wall. The razor did a good job on the day old stubble, getting a nice close shave. The trimmer works great to get around the ears between haircuts. I like the misty dawn highlight color and the fact it come with a travel case is a bonus. A nice simple electric razor that gets the job done!

Super responsive!
on July 24, 2019
Posted by: CAPNDigital
This is the best mouse I have personally purchased for my PC. It is incredibly responsive, no lag at all! It preformed perfectly for me while playing games on my laptop. It connected right away and I was able to customize my button settings as well the light color. I quite like the extra weight you can add to the bottom of the mouse giving it a heftier feel.
This Logitech mouse is a great addition to playing PC online games for me!

Rich full relaxing sound
on July 21, 2019
Posted by: CAPNDigital
These Sony wireless noise canceling earbuds are some of the most comfortable earbuds I have ever used. From the box after a full charge I was able to get 6 straight hours of use before the right earbud died on me. The case is great being able to charge the earbuds without needing to be plugged into the wall. The case is small and can fit into your pocket or purse taking up very little room.
Pairing to my iPhone X was quick and without any issues. I pulled the earbuds out of the charging case, put them into my ears, turned on the phone’s Bluetooth and paired right away.
These little powerhouse earbuds sound fantastic! I love being able to tweak the audio to my preferred sound settings with the Sony Headphone Connect app. Using the app to change the earbud button function is a plus. The noise canceling is beyond what I was expecting. I didn’t think earbuds could come close to over the ear headphones in that area, but surprise they are amazing!
The adaptive ambient sound being on being on during workouts is a plus! I can hear the music without compromising safety. The earbuds stayed in place during my workout and felt quite comfortable. I was nervous one would fall out, but never happened.
The call quality was better than using just my phone. I could hear the other person very clearly and they let me know they could hear me much better than when just using the phones built in microphone.
Overall I was very surprised at how much I enjoy the quality of these Sony Noise Canceling earbuds. They are comfortable and built really well!

Surprisingly powerful i5!
on June 26, 2019
Posted by: CAPNDigital
I would have to say overall I am very impressed with how fast this i5 processor operates. I have an older i7 (i7-3632QM) and this i5 blows it out of the water. I was unable to play games on Steam with my old laptop, but this one had no issues playing Planet Coaster. There was no lag in placing elements and ride in the parks I was building. The graphics card kept up with the games I play and never gave me any issues. So far I am quite happy with this Acer Nitro laptop.
I like the 17” screen size, love having a dedicated keypad, and also enjoy the over all aesthetic look of the computer.
The only personal annoyance I had was at start up, windows now wants you to create an account and log in to proceed with windows set up on the a computer. That doesn’t take away from the computer and it’s hardware, just a personal dislike.
For my gaming needs this fits the bill and enjoy playing with this Acer Nitro Laptop.

Better than expected!
on May 21, 2019
Posted by: CAPNDigital
My primary reason for getting this product was for a better charger for my Apple Watch. The standard charger from Apple annoys me (it falls off my nightstand regularly) and I really wanted a more stable stand type charger. I like the idea of being able to charge my phone and watch at the same time on the same dock.
The dock is packed really well for shipment! At first glance I thought the stand was a bit on the large size, but I really like how stable it is with both watch and phone on the charger.
One thing I was not looking forward to was taking my phone out of the case to charge, I have and iPhone X with an Otterbox commuter case as well as a PopSocket on the back.
For fun my husband put his iPhone 8 plus with an Otterbox Defender on it on the charger and to our surprise, IT STARTED CHARGING!!! So just to see what would happen, I placed my phone with the case and the PopSocket on the charger and some sort of magic happened.... It was charging the phone through the case and PopSocket! A heads up the phone must be flat on the charging pad while in the case, if it is at an angle it will not charge.
I must say I am beyond impressed and was not expecting to like this as much as I do. I really only wanted the watch charging part because I am lazy and taking the phone out of the case to charge on the wireless pad would become tiresome very quickly. The phone and charger never felt overly hot during the charging process, overheating was a concern I had with the wireless charging. I am just blown away with this Belkin wireless charger for my iPhone and Apple Watch (series 3), it exceeded my expectations.

Great leap into 4K
on May 17, 2019
Posted by: CAPNDigital
This Sony 4K player is an absolutely wonderful addition to my home theatre. (It is paired with a Sony XBR-X900F TV and Sony receiver.) The player looks beautiful on my tv stand, it is gorgeously designed, sturdily made and well packed machine. The picture quality with the tv and player are quite stunning, both supporting Dolby Vision. They complement each other quite well. I love the menu on the player, it is streamlined and not cluttered with unnecessary apps. I was unsure if 4k really looked better than a blu-ray, but with this player and tv together I can honestly say yes it does. I am quite happy with this upgrade to my home theater system.

Nice little speaker
on April 14, 2019
Posted by: CAPNDigital
This Sony speaker is small, but packs a punch. Set up was quick and paired with my iPhone super fast. I was quite happy to see that with this speaker Sony went with a micro usb cable, making charging a snap!
I did not test the water resistance of the speaker, so I cannot speak to that feature. Taking phone calls or using the voice assistant to make a call was quite easy. The quality of the call was acceptable, but honestly will not use that feature regularly.
Listening to music was great, it has a good out put of sound for a small speaker and fits nicely in a cup holder if you were so inclined. Thankfully for my taste, the bass was not too heavy as I was a bit concerned about that at first.
Overall it is a nice little Bluetooth speaker to use to listen to your music around the house.

Will this work with an iPhone 12Max with a Mous Limitless 3.0 case. Anyone foolish enough to use any gimble w/o some sort of protection is just asking for trouble IMO. I really want to pick one up but not if it won’t work with a case.
No, I have an iPhone 12 with an otter box commuter series case and it will not fit my phone in the case. It makes my super nervous to use with my phone out of the case.
