Philips Norelco OneBlade Pro is a revolutionary hybrid styler that can trim, shave and create clean lines and edges, on any length of hair.

Rechargeable Li-Ion battery delivers 120 minutes of constant styling power after a 1 hour charge. The blades are designed for lasting performance. For optimal performance, you will only need to replace each blade every 4 months (For best shaving experience. Based on 2 full shaves per week. Actual results may vary.).* Replacement is easy and hassle free.

Great Beard Trimmer
on March 29, 2021
Posted by: TechGuru
from Oklahoma City, OK, USA
This is a great shaver/beard shaper. It works great, is easy to adjust, and DOESN'T cut your skin on close shaves. It charges wirelessly and can run for 90 minutes on a single charge, so it can be ideal for short traveling trip, even if you forget your charger.
I love everything about this razor, but I wish that is was also designed to cut all of your hair. I know that would be a tall order in such a tall package, but it is the only thing it lacks. other than that, it is perfect, and no matter what, great for beards.

Designed for a life with less cleaning, the DustMagnet 5410i air purifier catches 99% of airborne dust before it settles on floors and surfaces. Independently tested for performance as part of the AHAM Verifide Program for room air cleaners, for a Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) of 244 cfm for fine smoke particles, 265 cfm for pollen particles, and 266 cfm for dust particles. Recommended for medium rooms like a master bedroom, living room, or playroom, the 5410i model completely filters room air about every 12.58 minutes (approx. 4.8x an hour at 380 ft) on the highest speed. Patent-pending DustMagnet technology powerfully attracts airborne dust particles like a magnet. Two air intake points and a unique airflow pattern create a vortex effect in the room to capture dust before it settles. A stream of negatively charged particles clusters airborne dust particles, making them easier to capture. Once inside the air purifier, the particles stick to the positively charged pre-filters like a magnet. Equipped with HEPASilent filtration technology to kill germs and effectively trap 99.97% of airborne particles like allergens, dust, pollen, pet dander, mold, bacteria, and viruses down to 0.1 microns. Additionally, activated carbon is integrated throughout the filters to absorb gases and household odors from cooking, smoke, and pets. DustMagnet delivers more clean air using less energy and less noise, quietly cleaning the air with less noise than a whisper (31 dB) on low and up to a normal conversation (50 dB) on high – while using about as much energy as a light bulb (42 watts) on high. Air purifier not tested against SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19). Designed to blend into your home like a great looking piece of Scandinavian-style furniture, the dual-use design features a convenient top surface to double as a side table and air purifier. With a design worth showing off, there’s no need to hide your air purifier, place it prominently in the room where it will be most effective. DustMagnet takes a simple approach to smart air quality management with proactive features such as Auto mode, Welcome home, and a five-color LED air quality indicator light. When Auto mode is enabled the air purifier will auto-increase fan speed when the particle sensor measures diminishing air quality conditions (when cooking, vacuuming, etc.) and returns to a lower speed once pollution dissipates. Activate the Welcome home feature (available March 2021) via the Blueair app and your air purifier will go into standby mode when you leave the house and turn back on as you approach home, reducing airborne dust for when you arrive. The Wi-Fi-enabled air purifier also allows you to control settings from almost anywhere with the Blueair app and voice-control via Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant-enabled devices. Includes one set of combination particle and carbon filters with a maximum of 1-year filter life and two permanent stainless-steel pre-filters. DustMagnet proactively monitors filter use and pollution levels in real-time to accurately determine when you need a filter change. When it's time for a replacement, the Blueair app sends an alert with an option to order filters at the touch of a button. For optimal performance, we recommend cleaning the pre-filters with a vacuum or cloth weekly, or as often as needed. Replace the combination particle and carbon filters when the filter light indicates a filter change is necessary (roughly 6-12 months of 24/7 use based on pollution levels). At Blueair, our Swedish heritage inspires sustainability and quality at the heart of everything we do.

Set It and Forget It
on March 18, 2021
Posted by: TechGuru
from Oklahoma City, OK, USA
While the Blueair Dustmagnet does have voice control from a digital assistant, such as Google, Siri, or Alexa, which is very cool, I love the simplicity. It has an auto mode, which will take the worry out of your air purification. It will sense the level of debris in the air and adjust its performance automatically.
I also love the "end table" style so that this isn't a device you need to figure out where to hide, you can actually use it to put things on. It looks great next to my work desk.

The iPad is a great device, especially if you pair it with an Apple Pencil. A full-fledged computer, the power of a digital work environment literally at your fingertips. But one thing is still not great: the Apple Pencil slipping around on the iPad's glass surface feels unnatural and the pencil tip gets stuck on fingerprints and smudges. It simply doesn't feel right. If you're like us, you miss the accuracy of writing on paper. Paperlike, a screen protector that emulates the natural feel of paper when writing and drawing on the iPad. The most significant challenges in developing the Paperlike were finding the right friction while keeping light refractions at a minimum. And keeping the material smooth enough, so it doesn't eat up the pencil tip like sandpaper (a lot of regular matte screen protectors do that). That's why we developed a unique surface technology called Nanodots. These microbeads are evenly distributed across the foil and allow for a natural paper-feel while keeping as much of your iPad's brilliant display quality as possible. Join tens of thousands of artists, students, and notetakers around the world who love Paperlike. And finally, make your iPad the truly magnificent device it can be.

Feels Great

This truly makes the note-taking (or drawing, though I'm not much of an artist) on an iPad feel like real paper. It is a very welcome shift, as someone who grew up with pan and paper, it brings back the natural feeling of note taking.
Paperlike is easy to install on your iPad, and if you use your Apple Pencil a lot, is definitely worth a try!

Good for Shaping Your Beard and Shaving Your Head
on March 7, 2021
Posted by: TechGuru
from Oklahoma City, OK, USA
I love this razor, as someone who has shaved my head for 20+ years now, however, I don't think it would get a good fit if you have linger hair, unless you are just looking for something for your beard.
That said, it works great for shaving down to your skin, so regardless of if you are using this on your head or beard, it is great to get down to the skin without bumps.
FYI, comes with shaver w/ pop-up trimmer, beard brush, charger, cleaning brush, blade oil, foil guard, and a storage bag.

First off, this case looks highly professional. It has a sleek style that looks very high-end. It easily opens to allow you to view your screen at a comfortable angle.
On top of all of this, this case definitely feels like it will protect your Galaxy Tab A. Highly recommended.

Easy to Use, Almost Perfect
on February 13, 2021
Posted by: TechGuru
from Oklahoma City, OK, USA
The Epson RapidReceipt scanner is an awesome way to increase your productivity if you are on the go and deal with lots of documents or receipts. It is capable of quickly scanning documents, and either creating searchable PDFs, or even extracting the important data from receipts for bookkeeping.
I wish the device had battery power and internal memory, because it is portable, but it is not standalone. It must be plugged in to a computer via USB to get power or to be able to scan.
That said, I love this scanner. It is small enough to fit in my computer bag, easy to transport, even in to an office, and doesn't take up much space on a desk.

Wonderful, but BIG!
on January 29, 2021
Posted by: TechGuru
from Oklahoma City, OK, USA
I love this Juicer/Blender combo. We have been making morning smoothies for years with a standard blender. I was worried that the Bluicer would be a lot louder than our old blender, but wonderfully, it isn't! It is such a great, versatile machine. It has tons of preset buttons to make most tasks simple.
On the juicing side, I have not found an apple that won't fit in the slot, as it is a great size. The whole process, including cleanup is great.
The ONLY downside is that it is quite a bit bigger than our old blender. Our old blender was very small though.

This is a no-frills camera. By that, I just mean it is quick and easy to setup and start using. I was literally up and running in moments after opening the camera.
It captures 4k video that looks stupendous.

The styling of the Espresso Defined professional-quality espresso machine will make it the centerpiece of any kitchen. With 19 bars of pressure, this unit produces intense flavor and a rick, velvety smooth cream. Presents and menu options let users adjust flavor strength and brew temperature, to customize each cup. Easy start to finish, with used capsules ejected right into an internal waste bin. Compatible with Nespresso OriginalLine capsules, this is Cuisinart at its best!

Requires Nespresso Capsules, No Good for Me
on December 25, 2020
Posted by: TechGuru
from Oklahoma City, OK, USA
I did not realize that being "compatible with Nespresso OriginalLine Capsules" meant that they were required. I am tired of coffee makers that essentially require a subscription service in the form of pods. This makes this nice looking coffee maker a no go.
The packaging should say the espresso OriginalLine Capsules are required. Being "compatible" with them sounds like they are optional.
The maker looks really nice and professional, would look great in any kitchen or office though.

So light!
on December 11, 2020
Posted by: TechGuru
from Oklahoma City, OK, USA
I love Shark vacuums, especially their cordless wand vacuums. The Shark Vertex DuoClean is no exception. It is a fantastic vacuum that has enough power to vacuum a 2400 square foot house twice over on a single charge. It is supposed to be able to last 60 minutes on a single charge, but I haven't had to use it for nearly that long to see. It does go strong for at least 30 minutes with no difference in power.
Its ability to bend in the middle so that it can go under things like couches and beds is great. It makes vacuuming the whole house a snap, and I don't have to move most furniture.
The attachments are also great, especially when using it in handheld mode, or using the wand to vacuum high-up corners, chandeliers, and other light fixtures, etc.
The only downside as compared to some other similar Shark vacuums is that this only comes with one battery, but so far, that isn't an issue, as it lasts so long on the single battery.

Cut The Cord with AirTV Player. Stream movies, TV, music and other content using a wide range of apps, including Netflix, SlingTV, Google Play and many more from the Google Play Store all with AirTV Player. AirTV’s streaming platform integrates local over-the-air (OTA) programming with your streaming services. The AirTV Adapter and an OTA antenna provide local channels like ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX, without a monthly cable bill.
 

I’m confused. How/ where does it get ota channels? Is there an antenna that comes with it? Similar to the digital antenna I use now for local channels? Or does it get the local ota channels and stream to device via the internet?

It actually has a coaxial cable plug-in so that you can use any OTA antenna with it.You should be able to use the digital antenna you mentioned in your question. That said, you can get a new, Smart 4k TV for around $300-$450, so I would go that route unless you are on an extremely tight budget. 4k, plus Roku is a much better option in my opinion. If nothing else, Roku isn't going anywhere.
