Bright, Sharp, and Several Inputs...

Connecting this Epson Home Cinema 2150 Projector is a breeze, with one VGA connection, two HDMI connections, and a Wireless connection to choose from. I tested it out using a small screen and really thought the setup was super easy, with zoom and focal rings that are easy to find and adjust and a keystone slide switch making it super easy to correct any skew you may have in your projection. The brightness and clarity is incredible. It has an option to mirror cast, so you can actually cast your phone screen. I'm not sure when I would use it but thought it was neat. I can't wait to use this unit for some outdoor movies.

Incredibly Rich Sound in a Small Package
on September 25, 2017
Posted by: bryanhill
from pittsburgh, pa
I have been using this new design of wearable speaker by Bose, a Soundwear Companion Speaker. It took no time at all to have it connected to both my laptop and my mobile phone. First I have to mention two things that blew me away. The sound that comes from this apparatus is incredibly rich and well balanced, with the use of it's patented tuned waveguide that is throughout the unit. It also is very comfortable on my shoulders, with it's low profile and cover it never feels like it is going to fall off. The controls are easy to navigate from your volume buttons to the next/previous buttons on one side and the power a bluetooth buttons on the other. A nice feature of this unit is you can quickly toggle between two bluetooth devices via the bluetooth button. I love this device for when I want my music to travel with me, but need to hear the ambient noise of this world around me. It works great for calls and for Google assistant. The battery life of this unit is pretty incredible at 12 hours and a 15 minute charge gives you up to 3 hours of playback time.
About the only thing I noticed that was negative about my experience, was it makes my neck area a little warm when performing some activities, but that is to be expected.

Rock Solid and Easy To Connect
on September 21, 2017

from pittsburgh, pa
I am no stranger to wireless keyboards, I have owned several styles as well as several different manufacturers. Logitech has always seem to have the upper end of hardware and software to offer. Here are some of the things I love about this particular unit:
Adaptive Backlit Keys
USB Type C Charger
Unified 2.4 GHz connectivity
Bluetooth connectivity
A pretty small footprint (without a giant chin at the bottom of the keyboard)
Well constructed
Control three items with designated buttons.
Keyboard layout is efficient.
Crown can control things with a spin if the app and os supports it.

Here are two things I dislike:
Sealed unit, not sure what it will be like to replace the batteries when they stop holding a charge.
Hopefully the Crown will gain some profiles for other apps, the only thing it can control on my machine is volume, app switch and switch tabs in Google Chrome.

Fast, Easy, and a great Brew.

This is my first actual Keurig branded single serve coffee maker. I have used several different brands of these brewers. This particular one is a nice brewer. It has some features that our past ones have not. One of those features are the Strong brew button and the other is the 12 ounce brew feature, I used to have to double brew a K-cup at 6 ounces to get my morning started right with my big mug. It also has a simple interface with only buttons, no display and menu to figure out and also has 52 ounce or (1.6 quarts) water reservoir, so there is no need to fill with fresh water after every brew. This unit is also very quick at brewing. Something I did not notice at first is the small footprint this unit also offers. I actually am impressed with this little brewer and would suggest it to a friend.

LG’s SJ7 Sound Bar Flex offers endless entertainment from a versatile dual-speaker design: The two main speakers can be placed in front of the TV, or to the left/right vertically or in front of and behind the listener for an even more cinematic experience. Both speakers are Bluetooth, and the right unit has a built-in battery, so it can work independently just about anywhere.

Excellent Sound with Versatility
on August 14, 2017
Posted by: bryanhill
from pittsburgh, pa
This unit has a small footprint and is versatile. I love the fact that it can be used as a standard sound bar, or as a surround sound system, or as a portable Bluetooth speaker system. You lose the subwoofer when using it as portable Bluetooth sound system, because the sub has no battery. Sound quality is excellent, with an optical and HDMI input. I also appreciate that the speakers come with separate stands.

This juicer is not only super easy to use, but it is also super easy to clean and reassemble. Two things stood out to me on this unit. It's very quiet while extracting juice, and it has a pretty small footprint for what it does. It's nice that it is black, and it really does do a fantastic job of juicing just about anything you can think of.

Enjoy music wirelessly with these Everest Bluetooth in-ear headphones. A built-in microphone with echo cancellation lets you make clear, hands-free calls, and ergonomic ear tips in three sizes ensure a comfortable fit. The built-in battery on these Everest Bluetooth in-ear headphones provides up to 8 hours of listening between charges.

These wireless in-ear headphones are very light, comfortable and affordable. They have decent but not perfect balance of bass reproduction for the size that they are. They include a charging cable, and several sleeves/earbud options to fit most ears, even the small ones. The one thing they lack is a carrying case. They provide 7 plus hours of use between charges. These are a nice pair of headphones, they include all the controls one would expect on the go. They are a perfect addition to the go bag, being so light and small, giving you the wireless option for where ever you find yourself.

This modern day boom box, called the Nyne - Rebel Portable Bluetooth Speaker is a really nice unit for a modest price.
It has plenty of bass.
It has a huge battery.
It has an input jack.
It has an output jack.
It can charge a device.
It is durable.
It is splash/dust proof.
It has a built in handle.
It has back-lit buttons.
It has NFC for easy pairing via Bluetooth.
It Rocks!!!
I wish it charged via a usb cable and not it's proprietary charging cable.
I wish it had a little better balance of highs to it's great bass response.
Ultimately this unit was surprisingly well built with great bass. I would recommend it to a friend.
The NFC is my favorite part of this device, making it uber easy to connect.

Toss this waterproof LifeProof AQUAPHONICS speaker in the pool and watch it float. The crisp audio doesn't stop for snow, dirt or ice, and this Bluetooth-enabled speaker can withstand a drop from 1.2m. The battery of this LifeProof AQUAPHONICS speaker keeps going for 15 hours, and it charges your phone while it's playing.

Waterproof, Drop Proof, and it Floats....What?!?
on June 25, 2017
Posted by: bryanhill
from pittsburgh, pa
I love this new LifeProof - AQUAPHONICS AQ11 Portable Bluetooth Speaker. It's perfect to have poolside, lakeside or just about anywhere. This unit is water proof, drop proof, easy to use, and has a dry compartment that not only fit's your phone but also has the ability to charge your phone while it is kept dry. The volume is good, it lacks a bit of punch in the bass. But ultimately has a pretty good balance with no distortion at it's highest volume setting. I didn't test it but it's specs say it floats, and it also has a 15 hour battery. A bonus, the buttons light up so you can see them at night to skip songs, or turn up the volume.
The simple fact that it is waterproof, dustproof, and drop-proof, makes it a great companion to play your music, no matter where you are, or what your doing.
The only thing I dislike about this device, is that the charger is proprietary, and not a standard connection like Micro Usb or Usb Type C.

Excellent Sound Bar with internal Sub-Woofer

This Samsung 3 Channel Hi-Res Soundbar with Built-in Subwoofer is an excellent choice for a soundbar without an external subwoofer. It was super easy to install, with several options of inputs. It also is wifi enabled so you can stream using the Samsung Multi-Room app, or wirelessly connect your samsung wireless enabled tv. This device is not only versatile with it's connections, it has a very rich sound with great quality reproduction of bass and treble while obtaining a balance throughout different volume points. It also has unique metallic finish, bringing a high quality look to a high quality unit.

Does this take the place of Alexa? Or do you use together?
No.
Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant are two separate things that assist you in two different ecosystems.
You can use them together, but not to do all of the exact things. Alexa would be used for amazon oriented services, and Google Assistant for Google oriented services.
