Almost a perfect thin and light gaming machine.
on March 13, 2024
Posted by: BillFromKC
Short but sweet - it's a beautifully designed, powerful gaming laptop but realize that the RAM this comes with is the RAM this is stuck with. At least you can throw in a second SSD should you want additional storage. Build quality is excellent, almost like it came from a certain orchard. The keyboard feel is amazing, better than any laptop I've ever used outside those that you have to think about. OLED - enough said.
Unboxing, first impressions, and initial setup:
First thing is the packaging feels like any other Asus laptop. While the ROG Zepherus G16 comes in a box within this box similar to what your high-end smartphone comes in, you have to get through the brown cardboard first. I feel like this takes away from the experience of opening it up.
The laptop is solidly built. The body is milled from a single piece of aluminum, the way premium laptops should be made. The bottom is one large set of vents, which is a way to keep things cool. The dark grey color looks nice, and where the light stripe is looks like a terrific accent, even when off.
Power it on that you'll be greeted by the sound of the G16 booting, which is the sound of a sword being drawn. I'm a fan of this. Also, the contrast between the foreground and background is startling if you've never seen an OLED larger than your smartphone.
This laptop comes with Windows 11 Home Edition. While there are ways to get around making a Microsoft account, plan on doing so if you haven't already. For what it costs, however, it should have with Windows 11 Pro.
The best part of the OOB experience is that McAfee doesn't come installed by default. That was enough to bring back one of the stars taken away from the upgradeability thing (more on that later).
Usage:
The Core Ultra 9-185H processor is extremely snappy and responsive. Windows boots fast and Windows updates very quickly. The SSD in this system isn't the fastest thing out there, but has adequate performance for any game you can throw at this machine. The RTX 4070 Mobile is a capable GPU, even with only 8GB of memory. Performance feels similar to the desktop RTX 4060Ti when turned all the way up to its 115-watt TDP mode. The Core Ultra 9-185H also has integrated Arc graphics that perform very similarly to the Arc A380, which is terrific for encoding and even decent for low-setting gaming.
Everyday usage for productivity is great. Internet browsing is only slowed by your WiFi connection. Office apps do whatever you need them to instantly.
Most games run without issues. While some modern titles will only allow for medium graphical settings because of how much memory they need for the GPU, almost everything else that can run on an 8GB video card will run at high, settings natively. On the 2560x1600 display, graphics look beautiful. Thanks to the display being OLED, the contrast is deep and colors are very rich.
For video editing, the combination of the RTX 4070 and Arc graphics makes for a powerhouse. The RTX chip is great for rendering out graphics while the Arc is very efficient at rendering video.
The G16 comes with a proprietary 240-watt charger. It's also compatible with up to 100 watts of USB-PD charging, which I confirmed for myself with a third-party adapter and a USB-PD cable rated for 240 watts each.
You'll also find USB-A and USB-C ports on both sides of the laptop, HDMI and headphone on the left side, and a SD card slot on the right side.
If you're familiar with Asus ArmoryCrate, that's the software used here to control the keyboard lighting, update the firmware/BIOS, and control the Slash Lighting, which is a very unique feature in that it's a multi-zone light strip that can be set to one of several animated presets. It does only glow white, however. Other Asus-branded peripherals can be controlled with this software, too.
Upgradeability:
2 SSD slots are a terrific way to make sure you don't run out of storage, especially with the price of high-capacity SSDs dropping. The included SSD is an adequate performer, with 5000 MBPS reads and 3000 MBPS writes. it does support PCIE 4 aand PCIE 5 SSDs, but I would stay away from high performance drives in a laptop because of heat and power concerns.
the WiFi card is also easily accessible with the bottom open and uses the standard form factor. As WiFi versions improve, it's good to know you can upgrade.
However, the RAM is soldered into the machine. You can't just go buy a DDR5 memory kit to upgrade from 16GB. Gaming laptops should have upgradeable memory. I would have even given up one of the SSD slots for this.
Closing:
This is almost a perfect laptop. Thin, light, powerful. Then you find out that even though you can add storage, you can't add RAM. While it's a good premium laptop for those looking for something thin, stylish, powerful, and not from the orchard, it's not something I can recommend to the core audience Asus was looking at selling this to, as 16GB will be less than the minimum spec you'll want for gaming. It is a solid laptop though. My recommendation is for those that aren't looking at this as a hardcore PC gamer.
And for the price, it should come with Windows 11 Pro.
If you're a gamer who really does want a Zephyrus laptop, I'd recommend spending a little more on one of the models with 32GB of RAM. Yes, it's going to cost more, but you'll get more enjoyment over the years out of one of those models.

When you need the right tech to take on a day full of projects, meetings, and more, you need the HP Series 5 23.8-inch FHD Height Adjust Monitor. Its sleek design complements any workspace. And its beautiful screen, adjustable stand, and comfort features take your productivity to the next level. Bring flexibility to the way you work through enhanced visual performance, contrast ratio, and refresh rate.
Posted by: BillFromKC
The short and sweet - It's a nice-looking 24 inch-class (23.8 inches viewable) 1080p monitor that hits a lot of points in terms of features - 100 Hz fast refresh rate, bright panel, decent color, and smooth visuals. This is balanced out by the color balance not being the greatest (especially in the greens), no adaptive refresh rate technology for tear-free visuals while gaming, no VESA mounting options, a VGA port instead of a second HDMI or a DisplayPort port, black levels that aren't particularly great with the brightness turned up, and an external power brick instead of internal power.
Unboxing and setup:
This went pretty quickly. HP's packaging for their basic monitors is, well, basic, but gets the job done. The stand assembles quickly with two thumbscrews, and the panel snaps into place. There's the included power supply with power cord and a pretty solid HDMI cable as well - if you're wanting this monitor for a computer with a VGA port, you'll need to pick up a VGA cable if you don't already have one.
Aesthetically, this is a nice-looking monitor. 3 sides are "bezel-less", and the bottom chin's silver plastic does look classy. The surfaces have the look of aluminum, but are plastic.
The menu system is easy to navigate with four buttons on the lower right side of the screen. There are tons of adjustments, from the basic brightness and contrast to color levels, black levels, response time, and even sharpness (rare for a computer monitor).
To enable this monitor's marquee feature - the high refresh rate - you'll need a compatible graphics solution. Most video cards and integrated graphics chips made in the last 5 years should support this feature without issue. As long as this requirement is meant, you'll just need to go into the Settings app in Windows, under Display, then Advance Display at the bottom to Choose the 100 Hz refresh rate. For my fellow Mac users, it's a similar process - Go to the System Preferences app, click on Display, and the refresh rate should be immediately accessible.
I did play a little Doom Eternal and some Resident Evil 4, and tested with the UFO blur test. While there was a little ghosting on the screen in the dark scenes and in the UFO test set to high speed, the bigger problem was how the black levels were crushed by blacklight bleed. Turning down the brightness helped here, as did playing with the black stretch and making sure it was set for full-range visuals over the more television-like limited setting. Games like the Doom and Resident Evil series, along with other FPS games like Call of Duty and Fortnite, and horror-type games like Five Night at Freddy's and The Last of Us Part One need those more complete black levels for more immersive gameplay.
Productivity is where this screen shines. Text is crystal clear, spreadsheets are easily readable, and surfing the web is smooth as butter.
Video and photo editing is also decent on this screen, but you'll need to calibrate the display's color to get accurate results.
Criticisms:
So first and foremost, my biggest gripe with this display is the power supply isn't integrated. It's easier to manage a power cord than a power supply. No VESA mount also limits the options you have with this screen, especially if you want a portrait display. The lack of Adaptive Frame Rate - either generic, FreeSync, or G-Sync - is also disappointing, as I did have several games run faster than 100 fps, which resulted in some frame tearing. Also, it's 2024 - why do we still have VGA on a consumer-class display? Finally, I feel the price is high for the feature set of this monitor.
Conclusion:
It's a decent screen but lacks features you can find in competing screens for similar prices. The menu system is easy to use and featureful, but only a single HDMI port limits your connectivity. Gaming is okay outside of dark scenes, video and photo editing need display calibration, productivity is great though. Get it if it's on sale or matches your HP computer.

Thump away the soreness.
on January 9, 2024
Posted by: BillFromKC
The Sharper Image Powerboost Deep Tissue Massager will thump that soreness out of your muscles. With different attachments, it's built to handle all of your sore spots. It's extremely powerful, where even its slowest speed won't grind to a halt as you power out those knots in even your thickest muscles. The only real disappointment is that it doesn't come with a USB-C charger - while it can charge with a USB-A style charger, even using a USB-A 12-watt charge brick won't charge this very quickly, where a 20-watt USB-C charger will.
Before usage, make sure you charge this device completely. While it will power on, you risk damaging the battery, depending on how discharged it is. Charing using a 20 watt USB-C charger didn't take too long to get it full.
To change tools, you'll want to twist as you remove the tool head. I don't know if it's a design issue or just my unit, but I found this a little finicky on the starting position of the tool. I've had this issue with nearly every percussive massager I've ever used though, no matter the brand.
Usage is straightforward. Press and hold on the power button to turn the unit on and off, press the power button to flip between standby and one of 7 speeds; the higher the speed, the harder the percussive thumps are. As for the tools, I'm a fan of the foam ball and the air cushion heads.
Now is this for everyone? Probably not. My wife has fibromyalgia and didn't enjoy this massager at all. My 12-year-old enjoyed that it made him have a robot voice but was over-sensitized after a few minutes of on-and-off use. Just because I had a positive experience with it personally doesn't mean that you will.
I'm a fan of it, but that doesn't mean you will be. I would give it 5 stars but this should come with a USB-C to C cable and USB-C charge brick instead of the USB-A cable.

Decent bluetooth keyboard
on December 1, 2023
Posted by: BillFromKC
The Insignia Full-size Bluetooth scissor switch keyboard is useful for those who need a single keyboard that can be shared between multiple devices. Useful with Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android devices, but also handy for AppleTV and Google TV devices that can be used with bluetooth keyboards.
Setup is super simple - the keyboard comes with a pair of AAA batteries that you install. Flip the switch to power it on and the first pairing goes quickly with a compatible device of your choosing.
Usage is a mixed bag, however. While the key switches are fine, the keyboard itself isn't comfortable if you're using it for a living room experience, as the keyboard itself has some flexibility when not supported all the way across. I was able to connect and stay connected at around 40 feet away from my Android TV, 35 feet from my AppleTV 4k (1st gen), and about 50 feet from my iPhone 15 Pro Max.
For the price, you're not going to find a keyboard this size and this usable. However, it could be stiffer, which would improve its usability.

The finest mouse I've ever used
on November 10, 2023
Posted by: BillFromKC
The Corsair M75 Air Wireless provides a very solid mousing performance from a device that feels like it weighs nothing, especially on a high-quality soft mouse pad from Corsair (like the MM300 series) or a high-end glass mousing surface, but also on furniture in the living room. The programmability of the sensor polling rate and what the buttons do throughout not just games, but the whole OS interface is a very nice option to have - while I want the thumb buttons to flip back and forth between weapons in a game like Halo Infinite or Doom Eternal, I like them to be usable as zoom buttons in Google Maps and Microsoft Excel.
Setup is super easy - you can plug the mouse in and just go, or connect wirelessly through your Bluetooth connection or the included Corsair Slipstream wireless receiver that goes in your USB port. Windows and macOS both recognize this mouse as a basic USB mouse without drivers, with slow cursor polling and set functions to each button.
If you want to get the most out of this mouse, however, you'll need to install the Corsair iCue software, available for Windows 10 and 11 and macOS versions 10.15 and later.
With the iCue software, the flexibility of the mouse really comes through. You'll be able to update firmware to add new capabilities, set macros to each button, and configure how sensitive the mouse is to motion by default while directly connected with a USB-C cable. While iCue allows you to change some settings without the mouse directly connected, it does not allow for saving those settings for the mouse to default to.
Performance is nearly identical between connections. Wired connection and Slipstream Wireless both allow mouse sensor polling rates of up to 2000 times per second, while Bluetooth is limited to just 1000 per second. I found mousing easy on dedicated mouse pads very comfortable and on microfiber furniture to be better than any other mouse I've used in this way. The sensor didn't get tripped up on hard surfaces and carpet, too.
Is there a drawback to the M75 Air Wireless? The price for some. I do believe you very much get what you pay for here - a very-high quality all-purpose wireless mouse that's a master of everything.
All in all, the Corsair M75 Air Wireless might be the finest mouse I've ever used. If you can justify the price, get one.

Solid video and photo editing for Windows machines
on October 26, 2023
Posted by: BillFromKC
Adobe Photoshop Elements 2024 & Premiere Elements 2024 are a good way to dip your toes into photo and video editing without breaking the bank, facing subscription charges, using something free with a high learning curve, or using something free with tons of missing features. The Elements programs, as always, are build on the same technology as the professional programs, but with fewer features and more guides on how to do things. For beginners, they're great. For more seasoned users, you may run into the limits these programs have when compared to their professional counterparts.
One thing I'm glad was included in Premiere Elements was GPU acceleration, and not just for Team Green video cards. As tested with an all-AMD laptop (Ryzen 5800H, Radeon 6700M), an all-Intel desktop (i5-12600k, Arc A750), and an older Intel desktop (i7-6700, GeForce 1050TI), video editing and processing was much smoother while being able to offload things to the discrete GPU. While these tasks are also alright on modern AMD and Intel processors (Ryzen 5625u and Core i7-1360p), they're slower when your system lacks an encoder (like with a Ryzen 3600 and with a Radeon RX6400).
Photoshop Elements can also take advantage of your graphics processor for anything from image compositing to rendering filters nearly instantly. Compatibility with JPG, HEIC, and even RAW format photos means you can take pictures with nearly any camera or phone and it'll be viewable here.
You're also able to install - AND RUN - the Elements package on multiple PCs at the same time. Terrific if you have a batch job of photos to apply filters to. This is a win in and of itself because many consumer and prosumer-level photo and video editing apps don't allow for this.
I can't really think of any negatives with this package.
All in all, this is a solid package for photo and video editing. Photoshop Elements 2024 and Premiere Elements 2024 is the perfect way to dip your toes into the world of Adobe creative apps.

Solid ear buds, especially for the price
on October 17, 2023
Posted by: BillFromKC
TL;DR - The Soundcore P25i earbuds are a solid choice for low-cost true wireless earbuds. You get the signature Soundcore sound with different EQ settings for different tastes, but all remaining at a “hits above its weight class” level of clarity. Sound settings are also app adjustable, which is great at this price point. They’re also super easy to set up. A solid value all-around.
Setup is a cinch. The case may need a quick charge but the ear buds are ready to go - pop them out of the case and they’re immediately in pairing mode. They paired quickly to an Android device. Install the app and you’re able to control the more advanced functionality of these ear buds.
They’re as easy to use as any other ear bud, speaking of. The charge case uses USB-C, which is very nice. Changing out the tips is pretty simple, too.
Audio quality is great, as expected. Bass was definitely there, highs were punchy and vocals were clean. I have costlier earbuds that aren’t this good.
The only negative I can come up with is the lack of active noise cancellation, but turn them up loud enough and that won’t matter.
All in all, another win for Soundcore.

Probably the best gamepad ever.
on October 13, 2023
Posted by: BillFromKC
The SCUF Envision Pro controller is probably the best dedicated PC controller out there, maybe even the best controller I've ever used. Between the mechanical switches for the D-Pad and every button, the analog sticks that are the most accurate I've used, programmable G-buttons that can do macros or control things like the computer volume level, and just the overall feel in-hand of the controller, I absolutely love it.
Unboxing is an experience almost on par with Apple. While I would have preferred a sleeve around the inner box instead of an outer box, the inner box opens with the pomp and circumstance worthy of this controller. The controller itself has a little peel on it, protecting the RGB and a few shiny surfaces, along with a stick lock that safely holds the analog sticks in place for travel. Under the controller, you'll find a sleeved USB-A to USB-C cable, a USB-C to USB-A adapter, a wireless adapter using the Corsair Slipstream standard for directly connected-like wireless performance, and domed analog sticks should you prefer those over the concave style that comes installed by default.
Before attaching the Envision Pro to your computer, you'll want to install Corsair's iCue software first, as this will enable to you use the under-controller paddles and side buttons. Once installed and running, connect the Envision Pro directly, as this is the only way the buttons can be programmed. It's also a good excuse to charge the controller.
Usage without programming anything is good. The d-pad and buttons all feel amazing due to being mechanical, though pulling off special moves in fighting games may take some getting used to as buttons don't need to be pressed as hard - or far - to be triggered. Speaking of, the dual-mode triggers are great in quick click mode for games like Tekken 7, Street Fighter 6, Sackboy's Big Adventure, and Mortal Kombat 1. For games like Team Fortress 2, Counter Strike, and Halo Infinite, having the face buttons mapped by default to the paddles is a dream. The left and right side buttons are unmapped by default, and the G buttons are configured to system functions.
When you use iCue to map the buttons, however, that's where the real magic begins. For example, I have a profile set for the Mortal Kombat games that maps the shoulder and trigger buttons to the paddles, along with left trigger+right trigger to the left side button so I don't even have to think about that special move. For the way I prefer to hold a controller, it makes it easier to deal with the shoulder buttons. Also, iCue is how you customize the light show put on by the RGB strip, or how you turn it off completely.
The headphone port is good for in game chat, and I appreciate that the 3.5mm port is lit up. However, I'd like to see more than just the headphone port, G buttons, and the RGB strip lit up; while I don't want to see the whole thing lit up, halos around the sticks and the non-letter face buttons would be great for dark environments.
All in all, the SCUF Envision Pro is a sweet gamepad. The weight and mechanical switches make it a win for me.

Probably the best MFC I've ever used.
on October 11, 2023
Posted by: BillFromKC
TL;DR - The Brother MFC-L3720CDW does it all and does it especially well for an all-in-one. The printer does vibrant color prints and crisp text on documents from any source. The scanner is the best scanner I've ever used with an all-in-one. Fax functionality is there should you need it. You can even scan documents to PDF, Word, and Excel format straight from the control pad.
The box is large and the unit is heavy, so you may need help with carrying the MFC inside and placing it on a very sturdy surface. When you open the box, make sure you open the bottom so you can slide the box off the top of the unit to avoid damage to the control panel and the scanner mechanism. You'll have 10 or so pieces of tape to remove from the unit, along with 3 protective sheets (plastic on scanner, paper in the toner area, and paper in the paper tray), 8 toner caps (two per cartridge), and one large silica packet (in the paper tray).
Once placed, you'll need to connect the power cord, along with the (included) phone cord and a (not included) USB cable should you need them. Power it up, connect it to your WiFI network (sorry, no ethernet port here), and update the firmware. Now you're ready for the software, should you want it.
For users of Windows 10 and Windows 11, drivers automatically download and you're ready to go for printing, scanning, and faxing. For users of macOS (and OS X back to 10.7), the printer can be added as an AirPrint printer and the scanner is automatically detected by software that is compatible network scanners. Also supported are any Apple iOS devices that support AirPrint and any Android or ChromeBook device that support the Google Cloud Print and Mopria standards.
Alternatively for Windows 10 or later (including related server versions) and for macOS 11 or later, Brother does provide native drivers and control apps. For Android and iOS devices, Brother also provides the Mobile Connect app for scanning, printing files, and managing the printer toner from your phone. Installing the native drivers or the Mobile Connect app also makes it easier to register your MFC with Brother for warranty, and to subscribe to Refresh, their subscription ink and toner service. 4 months of this service is also included for free on any tier, so take advantage of free toner for a few months.
Performance is great for a MFC. These machines usually feel as if corners were cut to make them work, but Brother did a great job with this one.
I tested the printer first with some photographic prints and some documents from Word, Excel, and Notepad on Mac, along with a Vizio chart from Windows. All the documents looked great and the photographs looked amazing for a laser printer. Pages come out quickly once the first page comes out, as the paper has to travel through all four toner cartridges, even with a black and white document.
I followed that up with both flatbed scans of pictures and documents along with scanning 20 pages with the document feeder. The scanner is a decent performer for being a desktop-class scanner, while the document feeder is a little loud but quick for this class of machine. Color, greyscale, and black and white scans left nothing to be desired with their quality - exceptional for this class of machine.
I did make the fax modem dial, and that worked. Unfortunately, I have no one to fax so I couldn't test that functionality.
One other thing this MFC does that not many others do, is function with empty or missing toner cartridges. I was able to usethe scanner and the fax modem without a yeller cartridge in the printer.
If I have any complaints, it's the lack of ethernet port and included USB cable in the box. Considering this is the kind of machine that ends up in office shared spaces, ethernet would have been nice for keeping things off the Wi-Fi. The lack of an included USB cable baffles me, as some consumers won't have one and wouldn't have the option to use USB out the box.
One other thing I will also touch on is Brother's Refresh program. There are three pricing tiers - 75 pages for $9.99 a month, $19.99 for 200 pages a month, and $34.99 for 500 pages a month. Extra pages come in a quantity of 30 for an additional $1.99 after you hit your page limit. and it also includes an extra 1000 prints with signup of the 500-page tier (which is what I did). Compared to buying toner, it can be less expensive if you're constantly printing color documents. Use the 4 month trial period to see if it's less expensive for you.
All in all, the Brother MFC-3720CDW is a very solid machine. Large and heavy, but great performance from all of its part. I highly recommend this.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Solid keyboard - figuratively and literally
on October 11, 2023
Posted by: BillFromKC
The Corsair K70 Core keyboard is a nice, quiet mechanical keyboard that's just as home with gaming as it is with productivity. The red key switches provide a nice, tactile, linear feel without being loud at all, so it's not the clicky-clacky mechanical keyboard you expect. Per-key RGB lighting can be adjusted with the Corsair iCue software, from static colors to full-motion backgrounds that can be paired with other iCue devices (mice, mousepads, PC cooling) and compatible devices too (including other computer peripherals, and lighting from Nanoleaf and Philips).
Setup of the hardware itself is a breeze - plug in and go. If you want to adjust lighting or update firmware, you'll need to install the iCue software for this functionality. Installing iCue is easy enough; just make sure any other device control software like MSI Center or Asus Armory Crate is disabled before the install.
One thing I like about the K70 core is how extremely solid it is. There is zero flex here, just a well-built device. Even if Corsair didn't use an aluminum top on this keyboard, it would still be rock solid.
Usage is a dream. While I normally like clicky keyboards, I appreciate the feel and quietness of the K70's red switches. The control knob is nice but the functionality can be a little overboard; I have mine set as a volume control, but the options to use it to adjust keyboard brightness and scroll left and right or up and down are intriguing.
If there's anything I don't like about this keyboard, I'm not a fan of how short the cable is. I''m a bit of a keyboard connoisseur and I definitely appreciate breakaway cables, especially with USB-C ports on them; if I have to live with a fully integrated cable, I would like to see it a foot or two longer.
All in all, however, Corsair's K70 Core is yet another example of their prowess building quality peripherals. You won't regret purchasing this one.

This TV has an ATSC tuner.
August 27, 2015
There's no guarantee that ATSC tuners will work with ClearQAM cable channels, and even so, the greater majority of cable providers now scramble all cable channels. Including OTA channels. Because the FCC changed the rules and they're allowed to do this now.

1 out of 5Big Time 3-D problems
By Mike
I am writing to review the “XBR-55X850C”. HOWEVER, I have read multiple web pages that state this problem is happening with all Sony 3-D televisions, in the United States AND Europe, and that customers are not receiving ANY customer service, or any help from Sony whatsoever.
I have called 3 times and have been hung up on each time.
So, if you are looking for a great 3-D experience and excellent SONY customer service, LOOK ELSEWHERE. Sony rolled out an update for this television at the end of November of 2015. After the update, when viewing 3-D content, the display mode function of the current screen is continuously showing the current screen mode of the television. ALL THE TIME. Coming in and out up to 7 times a minute.
So, while watching a 3-D movie, every 5 to 60 seconds, the words “Wide Mode Full” flashes on the screen in the lower left hand corner. It NEVER stops. Sony is aware of this problem, unfortunately, Sony customer service is rude & unhelpful with this issue. They claim that “Sony is aware of this and is working on an update”. When I asked when the update would be released, Sony representatives claim they do not know when this update will be available.
Every Sony representative has hung up on me after not being able to satisfactorily answer the simplest of questions.
Anyone looking for a great 3-D experience, look elsewhere. Sony does not care about this problem. After all, they already have our money.
If you think this is the same old Sony with great products, high standards, and great customer service, THINK AGAIN! This is not your father’s Sony. This is the new, corporate Sony that just wants your money.
Everyone out there looking for a good 3-D T.V. should stick with Samsung. I wish I did. I thought I was “upgrading” from Samsung to Sony.

Customer service people are never told when...
January 2, 2016
...things get fixed after they get broken. I have this TV as well, and customer service people have no idea when Android Marshmallow will hit this TV set, let alone any of the other 2015 Sony TVs. Considering the Google Nexus Player got borked by the update though, that's probably a good thing the update hasn't hit yet.

By FortFun2
from Illinois
Found it is difficult, not intuitive, to program. Others have said if you loose power all your programming is lost, but we haven't lost power yet so can't confirm. I just wanted it to run when I left the house without a set program and contacting Bissell just led to more confusion. But, once I got it working I was impressed with the amount of pet hair it removed.

Sometimes, I have to plug mine directly into the charger to get it to charge because the battery is overly drained. Because of this, I don't even bother programming it anymore.

About 15 minutes into the movie the volume became muted and a message came on the TV that this was a bootleg movie. An unauthorized copy. Be very careful purchasing DVD's or Blu Ray movies from Best Buy. They just may leave you and your grand children very disappointed as it did our family.

causing your issues. The Film Industry (MPAA and associated groups) are known for their draconian DRM systems, first with DVD and now with Blu-Ray and 4k Blu-Ray.
if your Blu-Ray player isn't connected to the internet, connect it to the internet and update its firmware. That should fix all your issues.

5 out of 5This is the future of WiFi
By neio11
I threw (recycled) away my wifi extenders plus I am now able connect a device with an ethernet cable without having to run cables through the walls because each node has 2 ethernet ports. So for instance, I have one node connected to my modem and an ethernet switch. My 2nd node in another room is connected to an NVR for my security cameras. The speed through the nodes is surprisingly fast. The NVR is capturing HD videos from 3 cameras and it seems to capture fine. The 3rd node is in my living room area. The whole house is covered! Please put a password on your wifi otherwise you'll be supplying FREE wifi for your neighbors. I can have full internet access from 3-4 houses away from my house. I thought installation would be a pain considering you have to setup each node. Well, I shouldn't say "have to" because you don't have to use all 3 nodes. You can use only 1 or 2 and give the 3rd to me. haha. No but setup is a breeze! The only thing is that you have to use a smart device such as a tablet or phone, to do the setup. Velop currently doesn't support PC-based setup but I hope Linksys changes that especially for us "techies"!!! It works with Alexa. You can ask #Alexa what the wifi password is... so they say. I haven't had much success with it yet. It looks clean and neat. It doesn't all those antennas sticking out of it which makes it aesthetically pleasing.
I'm loving so far!

The setup process basically forces you to put a...
February 19, 2017
...password on your WiFi network. In fact, it's one of three things it asks when you set up the parent node, the other two being "Do you connect directly to the internet or through a modem/router device provided by your ISP?" and what to call your wireless network.

5 out of 5Blazing Speed, Best In Class Performance!
By gadgetguy11
The Linksys - Velop Tri-Band Whole Home Wi-Fi System (3-pack) is packaged in a beautiful & functional box with magnetic closure - it exudes quality! Each Node is protected individually. Just looking at the box, you expect a premium, esoteric product... & Linksys delivers that & more in spades! The shapely Nodes are beautiful & blend with any decorating style.
Simple set-up via the Linksys iOS or Android App. Within minutes, you are ready to go online.
As shown in attached photo, I have 90 wireless devices utilized over 5,000 sq feet / 3 floors: this is a challenging application for high speed Wi-Fi that includes: connected major appliances; BAS ceiling fans & Haiku Wi-Fi connected lights; Wi-Fi Thermostats; Netatmo Wi-Fi Weather Station; 65 Hue Lights; Connected exterior door locks; Wink Wi-Fi connected devices; connected iDevices, Nest & Arlo cameras; iPads; iPhones & computers. Finally, Streaming from 4) Apple TV's; Nixplay Wi-Fi Photo Frames.
And now the Results:
Velop delivers the fastest Wi-Fi speed I have ever experienced and does so consistently! The attached screen capture shows 349 Mbps Download / 23 Mbps Upload. These are WIRELESS speeds!! I pay for 300 Mbps Download / 30 Mbps Upload & our internet service provider generally delivers 300 - 360 Download & 22 - 32 Upload.
Velop is the only Wi-Fi System I have found to date that actually delivers this sustainable speed and does not randomly disconnect the many devices.
High power Wi-Fi requires a high current source. Each of the 3) square white power supplies produce 12 Volt, 2 Amp output! 24VA (Volt Amps) is the highest output of any router I have tested. Better yet, the cable that plugs into each Velop is perfectly angled at the plug so the wire routs neatly through the cable management feature at the base. Brilliant design!
PRO's:
1- Fastest Wi-Fi Speed
2- Easy approximate 10 minute Set-up per hub
3- Velop Nodes are very attractive & blend with any architecture
4- Robust infrastructure yields dependable performance
5- 24/7 Support
6- 3-Year Warranty
7- Easy to use App with great diagnostics
8- Wire Management at the base is excellent & offers a wire free appearance.
9- Three Velop Nodes establish fast Wi-Fi speed across the house on any floor.
10- Expandable: Add an additional Node any time you prefer.

CON's:
1- IP Address range cannot be changed from: 192.***. My 2) existing Apple Time Capsule / Routers had IP addresses of 10.***, but they can be set to different ranges. A different IP Address range requires individually resetting a few devices that previously connected to the other range. For example, each Nixplay connected frame had to manually "Forget" the old Wi-Fi name of the previous SSID, then set up the same name with Velop, even though the Wi-Fi name and password are the same. On 13) Apple Airport Express devices, I had to power down each device to reset it from 10.*** to 192.***
2- IPv6 is not supported as of product release. This is surprising, as my three year old Apple Time Capsule / Router supported IPv6.
3- The first unit set up in under 10 minutes; however the remaining two hubs froze at the same exact place midway every time during set-up. After 6 failed attempts, I held each Node horizontally and kept my hand around it. Surprisingly, this procedure resulted in a virtually immediate set-up! Then I set each Node vertically & it continued to work great.
4- Only one Node can connect to the internet via ethernet. The other Nodes connect to the first Node via wireless mesh connection. I would prefer the option of connecting each Node to a wired ethernet connection. Linksys Technical Support indicated this may be added later as a software update. This would prove beneficial because the Nodes must be located fairly close together (my tests showed less than 40 feet apart at most).

Mine gave me IPv6 OOB

and even so, there was a firmware update it applied immediate after setup. I agree that the IP address range thing is annoying though, especially when you're moving from an existing network with static IP devices (NAS, printers, etc.)

It stores data on the camera itself and not on a Homebase module. However, you still access the video like you would with Homebase-connected cameras - via the app.

It can if you used a Camera Connection Kit and a Powered USB 3.x Hub. The lightning port by itself doesn't output enough power to run this drive.
For newer iPad Pros with USB-C connectors, you could just use a USB-C to USB 3.0 Micro B cable.
Either way, you'd need to format this drive using a computer first to a supported format (I believe that would be either ExFAT, HFS+, or APFS).

Does this need a 3.0 slot to work correctly on an xbox series x? Will it work in a usb hub on the xbox series x with only 2.0 slots available?
It can work with a USB 2.0 hub, but it will run at approximately 1/3 the speed you'd get with a USB 3.x connection (40 megabyte per second transfers on USB 2.0 versus 120 megabyte per second transfers over USB 3.x).
