Sleek, fast laptop; will be great for college!

I've been using this laptop for about a week and I become more impressed every time I use it. This is a quality product if you're looking for a small, portable device. It runs fast and smooth and the fingerprint sensor is convenient and works well. The back lit keyboard is a nice touch, making it nice to look at as well as nice to use. I start college in the Fall so having this laptop is going to be huge. Love it!

Great software, user-friendly

Its been awhile since I've used Premiere Elements. I had it on a previous computer which has long since died so its probably been 7-8 years or so since I last used the software. I just finished putting together my first video and this version of Premiere Elements is vastly superior, very user-friendly and intuitive. The software provides lots of tips to help you as you are putting your clips together. Once completed the rendering process was MUCH faster than I remember it being on the previous version I used, and sharing/uploading my work was also quick and easy. Although I've only used the software for 2 videos so far I am very impressed.

Very impressive, great choice for small businesses
on October 3, 2019
Posted by: Randy
from Parker CO
Recently added this printer to our home network for small business printing purposes and general use by my wife and kids. I have only been using it for a few days but I am very impressed by its functionality and quality.
Setup was straightforward and went flawlessly, just follow the directions for setting up the printer/toner cartridges, download the software, choose the correct operating system of your PC and let the software do it's thing. I experienced no setup problems whatsoever.
Upon usage the printer is excellent. Very quiet, almost silent, and incredibly fast. The quality and color of the pages is top-notch.
A few other notes:
-Its fairly large in size, larger than other home printers I've had over the years. The printer is a workhorse and while I do a fair amount of printing honestly it may be a bit of overkill for me/my family's purposes. But I have no regrets, I would much rather have a printer that is overly capable of meeting our printing needs than one that is slower, is of less quality and struggles to keep up with demand
-I looked up the prices for toner cartridge replacements and they are not necessarily inexpensive, but the yield and number of pages they will produce are well worth the price in my opinion
Overall, this is a fantastic printer and I highly recommend it.

Outstanding ear buds! Fantastic noise-cancelling
on July 23, 2019
Posted by: Randy
from Parker CO
I got a pair of these a few days ago and they are easily the best ear buds I've ever owned. My top priority is always quality sound and these deliver. I highly recommend downloading the Sony Headphone app, it has numerous settings you can change including an EQ; I love the "Excited" setting because of the clean highs and the deep base it provides.
I've been using these ear buds A LOT over the past few days, not sure how many hours, but they are still fully charged and I have not had to re-charge the case yet. Speaking of the case, very classy looking and I love how there are magnets in it to keep the ear buds in place. A cool feature I use quite often is when my wife wants to tell me something, a simple tap on the left bud stops and re-starts the music. By the way, my wife loves them, too, so she'll be getting a pair for her birthday (hope she doesn't see this review :).
The noise cancelling provided by these is also very impressive. I own a pair of the over-ear Sony WH-1000xm3's whose noise cancelling is second to none, in my opinion. The noise cancelling from these ear buds is not as good as the WH-1000xm3's, which for their size one would not expect, but impressive nonetheless. I've used the ear buds while mountain biking and they stay solidly in place and never drop the bluetooth connection like other headphones/earbuds I've used. Perhaps the only downside to these is that Sony does not list them as water-resistant. That may be a turn off to some but so far during my workouts I have had no issues whatsoever.
To sum up, these are top-quality earbuds worth the price. Highly recommended!

Great smart lock, lots of features
on May 13, 2019
Posted by: Randy
from Parker CO
I recently installed the Lockly Secure Pro smart lock and found it to be a great addition to our home.
Installation of the lock went fairly well. The directions are well-explained although I made a bit of an error by not leaving the deadbolt extended when installing so I had to go back and re-do the installation, completely my fault. Once I downloaded the app setup and connection to the wifi was flawless. The only thing I could not do was install the door sensor because our internal door frame has trim molding around it; I suppose I could notch out a space in the molding to add the sensor but I decided not to do that. Without the door sensor you cannot use Amazon Alexa or Google Home Assistant but that’s not a big deal to me.
Since installation the lock has worked flawlessly. My wife and kids have all registered their fingerprints and the fingerprint sensor works very well (you can add up to 99 fingerprints). My kids also wanted their own access codes so they can use those, too. The finish also matches our existing door hardware perfectly.
Overall, the Lockly Secure Pro works great, looks great, and gives me peace of mind when I’m away from home. Great product!

Great little speaker
on April 15, 2019
Posted by: Randy
from Parker CO
Impressive speaker for its size. Its smaller than I expected which makes it very mobile, and since its advertised as waterproof and dustproof we got this speaker for taking to the lake/beach. But don't let its size fool you, it puts out a lot of sound and very impressive bass. The speaker I have is black with a white light that flashes in sync with the music coming out of it. At first it seemed kind of gimmicky to me, but honestly its also kind of cool. Battery life has been great so far, over 9 hours and still playing strong. I plan on getting more since you can link them all together using Sony's app, but I'll probably get the next size up, the XB32 for our backyard patio. Overall a great Bluetooth speaker.

Good for workouts

They stay in my ears quite nicely during workouts, lightweight and comfortable.The touch controls take a little getting used to, but that's not unusual. I love the storage case that also charges the headphones, pretty cool and I get a lot of hours out of them. Sound quality-wise the mids/highs are good but the bass is lacking for my tastes. Overall, nice wireless in-ear headphones for workouts, I'd recommend them.

Totally Awesome!!!
on April 3, 2019
Posted by: Randy
from Parker CO
Its like the '80's at my house all over again. I have several crates of vinyl albums that I haven't played in years. My CD's took over in the 90's, then when MP3's and digital formats took over that was the end of my vinyl collection...until now! This turntable has turned back the clock for me. Its been great sitting down with my daughter and son playing my collection for them. They are amazed at the album covers and inner sleeves and all the cool stuff you used to get when you'd buy vinyl.
The Sony PS-LX310BT turntable works flawlessly, and with its Bluetooth capability we are connecting to our various speakers, headphones, and it sounds especially great when we connect to our Sony Soundbar on our TV. I have numerous Sony devices and they keep putting out one awesome product after another, this one is no exception. Thanks, Sony, for bringing my vinyl collection back to life and giving me some great quality time with the kids. If you have vinyl and no way to play it, get this!

Fantastic printer, easy setup
on February 20, 2019
Posted by: Randy
from Parker CO
While I have only had the OfficeJet Pro 9015 for one day, I was so impressed I felt compelled to write a review to share my thoughts.
Setup was very straightforward, I downloaded the HP Smart app to my Iphone and finished setting up the printer. The app gives you the option to send a link to your email so I then downloaded the appropriate software on my work laptop (a Dell). The app/software located and connected to my Wifi automatically and without issue. I had a small issue with my work's firewall but the software guided me through overcoming that and the printer was up and running flawlessly. I then did the same thing with my personal laptop, also an HP, and unbeknown to me the Smart App was already loaded on my laptop. So setting up my personal laptop took mere seconds, awesome!
I frequently use my phone to capture images, take pictures of paperwork/contracts, etc., and the Smart app on my phone is incredibly useful for those purposes. I can also use my phone/Smart app to scan images, print documents/photos from my phone or my Google Drive, Facebook or Instagram pages. There is a lot of versatility with the app, but I was most impressed when printing documents and images. The printer is smoking fast, especially compared to my older Canon printer that this printer replaced. The documents printed perfectly crisp and clear.
Overall, while I have only had the printer for one day I am extremely impressed with its quality, speed, and Smart app versatility. Highly recommended!

Fantastic handheld vacuum, super convenient for vacuuming out my car and removing dog hair from furniture/beds, etc. It is very powerful for such as small and lightweight device. It empties with a quick push of the button and charges quickly. I love that the filters are washable and reusable. My kids make messes all the time, this handy vacuum is worth its weigh in gold with them around. Love it!

Make hands-free calls and listen to music with these Sony wireless in-ear sport headphones. The wireless design frees your range of motion, and the microphone makes conversations more convenient. Listen to music for over 8 hours on a single charge with these Sony wireless in-ear sport headphones, which are moisture-resistant for use during strenuous workouts.
 

Has anyone used these for running? I'm worried they won't stay in my ears...

I just finished a 7 mile run with these headphones, the outside temperature was 31 degrees, so I was wearing a knit cap. When running with the cap on the headphones stayed in place very well and required no adjusting or pushing them back into my ears. I also did a test without wearing the knit cap where I found the headphones did start to work themselves out of my ears after a few minutes. I’m 6’2” 205 pounds and not the smoothest runner so this probably had something to do with that, plus the fact that these headphones have a little more size and weight to them than others I’ve had in the past, no doubt due to the construction which helps them deliver that excellent bass sound.
