Great set of buds.

Great sound in a small package. Phenomenal battery length. They sound great out of the box, but you can also tailor the sound to your liking via the app. They are comfortable. I can wear them all day at work without fatigue. They have good passive noise cancelling. I work in a truck production plant and these block out a significant amount of noise. I had these in my ears for about 8 hours, and the battery bar was still over half full according to the app. The only issue I've had with these earbuds is that once in a while, for whatever reason, they get out of sync. I've had this issue with just about every set of wireless earbuds regardless or brand, and at this point feel that it's normal. It may even be my phone.

An excellent printer

I love this printer. It's super easy to setup via the app. It's like have a text message conversation. Super easy. Print quality is on point. Pictures print well even on plain paper. I love the fact that you can easily print a photo via the app and resize it within the app so it won't take up the whole page. Eco tanks just make sense. I can't tell you how many times I bought a new printer because it was cheaper than buying new ink for my old printer. This printer is very quiet, and has an option to make it even quieter. The only thing I don't care for is that you have to top load the paper. This limits where I can place this printer in my office.

An excellent alternative

Having used this controller for the past few days, I have to say it's a pretty good controller. It's definitely compact. If you have smaller hands, this would be ideal for you. The analog sticks are very responsive. So much so that I have to turn down the sensitivity in game. The software allows you to remap buttons, but that's it. You also get access to Dolby Atmos for headphones using the jack on the controller. To be be honest, the sound quality form the headphone jack is not very good, and there is a constant audible hiss. Chances are you're probably using a nice gaming headset, so this is almost a non issue.

1.) Very responsive sticks and buttons

In competitive gaming, every frame matters. Introducing Acer's KA242Y gaming monitor - the Full HD resolution monitor that can keep up with your game play. Through AMD Radeon FreeSync technology, the game’s frame rate is determined by your graphics card, not the fixed refresh rate of the monitor, giving you a serious competitive edge. Plus, users can enjoy comfortable viewing experience while gaming via flicker-less and low dimming display. The design saves space on your desk and lets you place multiple monitors side by side to build a seamless big-screen display.

Decent entry level monitor
on August 26, 2021
Posted by: kwilks3
from St Clair Shores, MI
This is definitely not a gaming monitor. I would say that it is a very good work station monitor, but I would recommend against gaming on it. There is terrible ghosting, and also tearing, even when forcing v-sync. Just running the mouse across the screen, you can tell something is off. It sorta of stutters across the screen. I will say that the picture quality is very good. The colors are vibrant, and the blacks don't look washed. Running the Blur Busters UFO test is where you can really see it's issues. I was trying to play Crew 2, and it was very difficult because of how bad the ghosting and tearing was. It was also stuttering, which has me scratching my head. Forcing 75Hz refresh rate didn't help at all, as well as turning overdrive up or completely off.

Solid Gaming Drive
on July 27, 2021
Posted by: kwilks3
from St Clair Shores, MI
Over the past few days I've been putting this drive through it's paces. I have to say it's a solid performer. Games like Crew 2, Monster Hunter, and others load very fast. While gaming there is no lag to speak of from games loading. Maps and levels load in an instant. This would also be great for a main OS drive as well. When you install this drive, make sure you download the software from WD and enable Game Mode. Solid state drives are just the thing to have in a PC or console these days, and I would definitely recommend this one for your PC.

Great addition to a great system
on July 23, 2021
Posted by: kwilks3
from St Clair Shores, MI
This is a great addition to my current eufy system. I have the eufy cam 2 system along with the flood light. The doorbell is just a logical choice to keep all my camera's within one app. It was easy to install. I have mine wired, but you can use this wirelessly for about 6 months with the battery. You can also use the included chime for a complete wireless install. I'm using my existing chime, along with my home base. The picture is crystal clear. False alarms are kept to a minimum with the human only motion detection. This is a feature other manufacturers charge a premium or monthly fee for. One thing I really like about this doorbell is that it actually rings the chime each time you press the button. The doorbell camera I just replaced wouldn't let you do that. One thing I wish this doorbell came came with is an angle bracket. My house is older, and the doorbell is placed fairly high up by the door. Angling down is a must for the best view. Luckily I'm fairly handy and was able to make one out of wood.
Likes:
1.) Easy to install, plus many options for install
2.) Great picture
3.) Human detection only for avoiding many false alarm

Good Insurance

These are great to have "just in case" something starts leaking. I have one in my laundry room, and the other by my hot water heater. I've had a hot water tank go out on me, and I have no idea how long it was leaking, but with these sensors, I'll know right away. They also have a nice feature that tells you the humidity. Here in Michigan our basements get pretty humid, even with the air going. I've heard you really want to keep the humidity under 50% if you can, because that's what really causes mold and other funky stuff to grow in your basement. Since installing these I have found that my dehumidifier was not working very well, so I have replaced it, and everything is back to "better conditions". I'm glad I got these just for the peace of mind alone. It's not fun cleaning up after a water leak, especially if it's in your finished basement.

Clean powerful sound
on June 17, 2021
Posted by: kwilks3
from St Clair Shores, MI
This is the kind of sound I'd expect from a Sony speaker, Clean powerful sound. This speaker has plenty of volume. It's perfect for gatherings outside with more than just a few people, and you want to be able to hear what's actually playing. While it is a bit on the heavy side, I'd expect it for a speaker of this size, sound output, and battery life. The LED's are a nice touch. They did do away with the flashing strobe lights on this iteration of the speaker, but personally I prefer it this way. If you had a couple these speakers and your phone, you'd be able to have a party virtually anywhere. This is my new go to speaker for when I watch movies on my garage here at home. It feels like a theater outside. Very impressed.

I was not expecting this speaker to pump out as much bass as it does. Especially at this price point. It's impressive. It has a good sound to it right out of the box, but a few tweaks to the custom EQ lets you really dial in a great sound. I have found if you turn off the "BASS" boost and just pump up the bass a little bit in the EQ you still get a good bass thump, but it's cleaner/tighter, not so boomy. At least to my ears. I listen to mostly rock/metal music, and this speaker sounds really good. There are only 4 presets for the RGB lights and you can not customize them. Not really a big deal for me because I always shut them off.

Love them, but...
on May 20, 2021
Posted by: kwilks3
from St Clair Shores, MI
These are ideal for having to be aware of your surroundings, yet still be able to listen to music or your favorite podcast without bothering the people around you. They sound pretty good for what they are, but I wish they had a bit more volume to them. I work in an automotive plant, and even at max volume they can be hard to hear. These would be perfect if they were a bit louder because there is a lot of background noise going on, but I understand these are meant more for personal music and to not bother others around you. These are better suited for quieter work settings or places without much background noise. One drawback to these are that they put extra weight on your glasses, and in my case, my safety glasses kept wanting to slide off my face. The included spacers or adpters for glasses do not fit all glasses that are skinny, which allows the JBud Frames to slide freely. You just have to be creative to to get them to stay, but it would have been nice to have a couple different types/sizes to accommodate for this.
Likes:
1.) Decent sound for what they are
2.) Last up to 8 hours on a single charge
3.) Can be used on just about any pair of glasses
