Neat Camera for the Tweens
on October 28, 2020
Posted by: OmieOne
from East Stroudsburg, PA
This is a simple point an shoot camera. Its easy to setup. Take it out, charge it up and hand it off to your Tween. They will have fun. Is this a serious camera for in depth photography, no. Is this a better camera then what is on most cell phones, no. But for what it does, a camera for quick snaps that get printed at the moment this is the camera for you. You can even add a memory card to store the pictures. Otherwise this is simple to use. Three modes, B&W/Vivid and normal. You point, shoot and it prints. They did make the front around lens a mirror like surface which makes taking selfies easier for the kids. Overall my daughter loves it and the expense of more paper for photo's seem worth it as she is having a fun time with this. This is a definite improvement over the first one and something fun, plus its nice to get the picture there to share with people, once we can be around people again.

Easy to use/charge and Comfortable
on October 18, 2020
Posted by: OmieOne
from East Stroudsburg, PA
TLDR: Overall this is a nice set of headphones with good sound and comfortable and easy to use.
Setup:
These do require the use of the USB dongle. It works well and on PC/Xbox, just plug it and go. Headphones pair easily so there is no issues with that. Makes it easy to move the headphones between devices/Desktop/Laptops. Don't have to re-pair it, just move the dongle. It is a long boy, so on laptops just not that it will be hanging out. On the downside it is a USB dongle, so if you lose it you can't use the headphones until you replace, so that can be a con for people, but since I have it on my desktop PC and that doesn't move it isn't an issue.
Usage:
Using the headphones is easy. The sound is good for me. I'm not an audio person, so high/lows and all that, not me, I can't speak to it. I can say it is clear, easy to hear, no crackle and the mic, I got no complaints from my teammates, they could hear me clearly and I do like the fact you can mute it by pushing it up. Having a way to quickly mute is handy since I do live in a noisy house. Wearing these for long sessions is not a problem. I found them light and comfortable and the battery had no problem lasting all day for my gaming needs, and I can be picky because of glasses. It wasn't an issue for me. I do like the simple controls. Overall you need some wireless headphones for gaming, these I think are a great choice. Easy and comfortable with sound that meets my needs.

Awesome Robot esp. for Kids who Love Robotics
on October 12, 2020
Posted by: OmieOne
from East Stroudsburg, PA
Let me say I got the robot, opened the box and handed it to my 11 year old daughter and then had to run out, figuring when I got back home I could help her get it fully setup. When I came home she had it setup between her computer (required Bluetooth) and the robot and she had programmed it to do the picture you see below. Now she has some experience with robots from school, so she was familiar with the concept of block programming. However from a setup, it is very easy apparently and walks you through it with no issues. Its neat that it comes with a foldable whiteboard to have some real cool fun. The language is a block coding and doesn't require any special programs installed, just access the website.
Overall I'm impressed with the robot, since it allowed my daughter to continue to play with robots and continue to get the concepts of programming and logic. I think iRobot did a great job and provided a fun package with lights, sounds and the ability to draw on whiteboard is great. The fact setup is easy and the ability to get programming is awesome. While kids who haven't had a chance at school to program robots a bit more work might be needed to get going, but really is something all kids should try and learn and I'm happy this allows robotics to come into the home.

Good Set of Earbuds
on October 4, 2020
Posted by: OmieOne
from East Stroudsburg, PA
Nice set of Ear Buds with a charging case that stay in when moving. Pairing is easy and the multiple set of ear pads to get the right fit to sit in your ears. That was nice to get six different pairs to get a fit.
Overall setup these days is easy. Paired without an issue and quick with my phone, and its nice that you can use one or the other, or both without issue.
Its easy to change between Noise Cancelling Mode too, just touch the left ear and it will go from Noise Cancelling, Off, to amplifying surrounding sounds in Be Aware mode. Makes it handy if you are out and about and want to be aware as you jog.
Sound is good, and the mic works well. At least when I was in my home office on conference calls. No complaints about the headphones.
The case is interesting as the charging cable is inbuilt into the bottom of the case. While it is a nice thick rubber but flexible enough to not overly worry about breaking. Additionally if you do break the cable, the case can also be wirelessly charged if you have them. So that is awesome to have two ways to charge the case to keep the earbuds going and not having to carry another cable is a huge bonus.
Controls are easy to use to adjust the volume or the ANC modes. Overall I like them and the sound of was good, I could enjoy the music as I walked and I was able to talk easily on conference calls. These are great ear buds, with a comfortable fit, good sound and nice battery life.

Works as nice Controller
on October 2, 2020
Posted by: OmieOne
from East Stroudsburg, PA
Overall as a controller it works. If you phone is the right size for the controller (check the website) and has the USB-C Connection in the center of the phone then your good.
Setup and plug in just seemed to work and using it with XBOX Game streaming on the phone. My only issue was getting the pass-thru charging to work. With my phone it disabled the controller, so it didn't work, but I used a Nokia 6.2 and not one of the officially listed. Honestly I feel its more a setting in Android I need to configure so the pass through works and not the device itself.
When playing a game using it, I didn't find any problems. The sticks responding to the game as expected and I never once had an issue playing game. Even over a 2 hour session, it worked as a controller and felt natural. I really liked it as a neat way to play on the go or around the house.

Nice Solid Stick Blender
on September 23, 2020
Posted by: OmieOne
from East Stroudsburg, PA
TLDR: This is a great Stick Blender, easy to use, a long cord and variable speed power button allowing for a bit finer control.
For a stick blender I like this a lot. I appreicate the bottom comes off for easy cleaning and they include a pan guard, to help protect more delicate pans/containers when blending for scratching. Its a nice addition that allows the blender piece to keep to stainless steel. They also include a very study blending cup, which I found handy for making Salad Dressing quickly and the lid fits well too, so I'm not knocking it off in the fridge.
I appreciate they also made sure the power cord has a decent length so I can easily reach pans on my stove without having to move them closer to an outlet.
It is easy to clean because the bottom, blending part comes off, I think it is dishwasher safe, but I hand wash since, that is how I was taught.
I do like the power button is variable speed, based on how far down you push. It allowed for me to have improved control compared other stick blenders in the past. When I used it to make a Jalapeno salad dressing in the cup, using the speed control, meant I could start up slowly and not splatter and slowly ramp the speed up as I required. From the blending side I put larger then normal chucks in the salad dressing mix to test and it had no problem smoothing it out and creating a dressing without issues.
Overall I am very happy with this blender, it does the job with a long cord, easy to clean and has a nice variable speed allowing me get some extra control over the blending process. If you need a stick blender I highly recommend this one.

Great Wireless Headphones
on September 20, 2020
Posted by: OmieOne
from East Stroudsburg, PA
These are great sounding headphones that are easy to pair with an Xbox One or PC (though PC you will need the XBOX One wireless adapter as they aren't Bluetooth headphones). That said when I turn them, either on PC or XBox, pairs quickly and sound switches over. So from a setup standpoint. Very easy.
Sound wise it gives good coverage and while playing with my clan on Div2 didn't get any mic complaints. I do like its easy to mute by flipping up. The controls for the volume are straight forward, one wheel for headset volume, one wheel for mic.
Battery life has been good for, haven't died while I've been gaming yet, so that is a good sign.
I did find the fit a bit tight on my head, so if you have a larger head, know it will feel a bit tight, but nothing overly bad, and didn't squeeze my glasses anything odd.
I did like the fact this does pick up and boost the ambient game sound more then normal so I got a more fuller/richer impact in games bringing the world to life.
Overall this are great light weight, easy to use headphones with the Xbox One or Xbox One adapter for PC. Sound good, pair quickly and work. Mic seems fine based on feedback from others I've played with. Overall this a great set of headphones for the Xbox Gamer in your life.

Perfectly Good Charger
on September 9, 2020
Posted by: OmieOne
from East Stroudsburg, PA
If you need a charger for your car that has two ports for your phone and someone else this is a good charger for you. It delivers plenty of power to the device you are charging and it comes with a spare Apple charging cable, which is handy if you transport one of those devices, you have a cable that will work.
There isn't much to say, you plug it, plug in your standard USB-A End of the charging cable and your device into the other and it works. Kids like it because it can charge the switch on the go and I like it because I can keep my phone topped off. If you need a two port charger then this will work for you.

Interesting Data.
on September 1, 2020
Posted by: OmieOne
from East Stroudsburg, PA
Overall the uHoo device is an interesting mix of sensors for monitoring air quality in a room, what I'm unsure with the device is the calibration of the sensors. For things like particles in the air or even CO2, I don't have anything else to compare it with, so the measurements it provides me I take with a grain of salt only because I can't verify the readings. That was my biggest problem, I just don't know off hand how accurate within a reasonable range they. I didn't see anything so out of whack that I doubt it, I just wonder how best to verify the data. That said let's get onto setup with the uHoo. That was very well done. I was using the Android version, but unlike a lot of other IoT devices this walked you through setup and it was easy without an issue and the device came online first try no needing to figure out how to reset it and try again. It just worked, that was very nice.
Once that is done, you just leave the device in whatever room you want to monitor. I'd recommend at least for the first week you turn off the alerts in the app since a few of the sensors took a few days to calibrate according to the app, like the volatile compounds. Once its dialed in you can adjust the alert thresholds and monitor the air quality. I do appreciate the app allows me to set alert levels, since you can customize your thresholds. Now the app does take this information from all the sensors and gives you a score from 1-10 on the ability of viruses to live in that area. Interesting information and that is all it is. Nothing something that will prevent them. Just gives you an idea of what you might want to adjust.
The overall sensor package is small, and looks ok and can fit anywhere where it can get power and Wi-Fi. This can be handy to monitor spaces for dust or should I open a window, or what the temperature is. The graphs in the apps are nice and a handy way to track trends for the month. Overall if you are looking for a sensor package to monitor the diverse things this covers from CO/CO2/Volatile Compounds/Temperature/Humidity/Air Pressure/Dust/Ozone/NO2 this might be something you can use.

Great Wheel
on August 29, 2020
Posted by: OmieOne
from East Stroudsburg, PA
This is my first wheel and first time using a wheel. Overall I'm happy, but expect so spend some time dialing it in. I didn't get a chance to test it with a PS4, but was able to test with a PC. If you are getting this wheel for PC gaming exclusively I do recommend you choose the XBOX version as there are a few more supported games then the PS4 version on the PC due to Microsoft Windows liking XBOX control scheme. That said setup was easy. Mounted securely to my desk without issues. Very easy system and the pedals have enough heft that they didn't shift around on my carpet. The cables have a good reach, so routing them wasn't a huge deal, I was able to position everything to be comfortable. Since I already have Logitech's G Hub installed on my PC for my mouse the wheel was seen immediately and ready for action. I happened to try a few different games and this the part where the wheel isn't as plug and play as a controller. It takes time with each game to dial in the settings that make it feel good, so expect to fiddle with the settings for the game you want. For me, not being a wheel expert it did take me some time for WRC 3 /Crew 2/Forza horizon 3/Grid 2019 to get the Wheel dialed in the way it felt natural and good. Again I feel as I use the wheel and learn about the settings in games and read more forum posts it will be a faster setup for newer games, but being new expect to spend about 30 minutes to hour per game playing with the settings and tweaking it to get it right. Once it is dialed in it feel great on the games, esp. Grid 2019 that fully supported "True Force" racing giving a feeling of being on the road. It gives you a better feel for the speed and the control is more natural if you drive a lot. Did it make me better at these games? No. Partly because I'm still used to controllers, but mostly because I am not the greatest at playing these games. But it did give me a greater sense of immersion in the game and feeling of being on the road. I had I think a bit more fun losing then I normally would.
Overall the feel of the wheel and pedals is very premium and it have a lot of heft to wheel especially. This really does help in providing some immersion to the games and the fun. Now as soon as I get my PS4 back, I'll be able to try Gran Turismo, and I'm hoping the setup on the Console for that game will go faster now that I have an idea of the different settings and what I seem to like.
TLDR: Great feeling wheel, if this is more for PC Gaming using the XBOX version since it covers more PC Games, but if you are willing to put in the time to tune the settings it really adds to the fun and immersion of the games.

If you still have to have Internet service what do I need this thing for I already have a router

Well the two I can think of are: 1. If you need better/stronger wifi coverage throughout your house or 2. if you have newer devices that can use the AC wireless settings. With the Mu-Mimo, even if your devices don't support it, testing has shown that your over all wireless throughput will be better as the router can share the connection better with all devices.
