Blazing fast Wi-Fi!
on October 3, 2023
Posted by: VangTfz
The Linksys Velop Pro 7! TLDR - blazing fast Wi-Fi, but will you notice it?
Out of the box, it comes with 3 Velop Pro 7 MBE7000 nodes, 3 charging bricks, and 1 ethernet cable.
Pros:
> Setup is a breeze and shaved off a couple of minutes from previous Velop systems i’ve had. My Wi-Fi 6 Velops typically took me around 4-5 mins to setup via the app whereas the Velop Pro 7 took 2-3 minutes per node :)
> Wi-Fi speeds are almost blazingly fast and just shy of my wired connection speeds. I have a 1gig Fios connection, and am pulling 800+ down & 600+ up when on my S23 Ultra. For comparison, my wired connection gets me 900+ down & 900+ up! These speeds are consistent for each of my nodes as my two satellite nodes are connected to the main node via a wired backhaul (as opposed to a wireless backhaul). Please note, your mileage may vary depending on the number of devices connected to your network - this will mean you’ll see higher or lower speeds! For reference, I have around 45 smart devices connected to my network at any given time which includes: TVs, smart phones, smart devices, tablets, and home security devices. Also, streaming 4K content on 6+ devices (e.g, Computers/TVs) seems snappier than my previous Wi-Fi 6 Velop network :P The throughput of the Velop Pro 7 is quite amazing!
> Wi-Fi coverage is pretty good. I live in a 3 story home and am able to easily get a strong Wi-Fi signal within every room of my house. Additionally, when outside I get pretty decent coverage as well being about 40ft+ away from the nearest node…can't ask for more :)
> Each MBE7000 node comes with 5 ethernet ports (1 of which can be used to connect to your main source of internet OR to the main node). This is quite nice as you can hook up multiple devices to the node, or even connect a switch to connect multiple devices via a wired connection. All of my nodes are connected to a 16 port switch (so I can wire in as many devices as I can to free up the airwaves for my wireless devices).
> Router features - i’ve been in the Velop ecosystem for quite a while now at around 4 years and use most of them (e.g., Guest Network, Parental Controls, Priority) and it’s good to see there are some beta features in development (e.g., Multi-Link Operation & Safe Browsing). I’d probably say the Parental Controls is the feature i use most right now as i have 4 kids and it helps me to limit their iPad & computer times!
Cons:
> I’ve noticed that with my older Wi-Fi 6 Velop systems, they would lose internet at least once every 2 weeks or even sometimes weekly. The nodes themselves are on, however the light indicates there’s no internet. To fix, i would have to unplug the main node and plug it back in and it works again within a minute (otherwise if i do nothing, it’ll come back up within the hour). Was hoping this would not be an issue with the new Velop Pro 7, but it seems to be unfortunately. Can’t help but think it’s the Velop system because if it were my ISP, i shouldn’t be connected back online so quickly. I set my neighbor up with a Wi-Fi 6 Orbi mesh system about 2 years ago and he’s also got a Fios 1gig plan but he never seems to have downtime/interruptions like i experience on my Velop systems :( Though it happens infrequently, it is kind of annoying & worth mentioning since i’ve observed this on 3 different Velop mesh systems now.
Overall, I would highly recommend the Velop Pro 7 mesh system. If you have tons of devices and stream a lot of content, this mesh system will definitely keep up with all of your devices Wi-Fi needs! Considering the price point of Wi-Fi 7 mesh systems right now also, this one is priced much lower while providing great features!

Lightweight and super comfy headphones!
on October 2, 2023
Posted by: VangTfz
The Bose QC Noise Cancelling headphones! TLDR - Lightweight and super comfy headphones!
Out of the box, you get the headphones, headphones case, a charging cable (USB Type A to C), and a 3.5mm audio cable.
Pros:
> Build quality feels good and premium. The headphones are super comfy and I can wear them for hours without having any ear fatigue/pain. The ear pads are pretty plushy and create quite a tight seal for very good noise cancelling. The headband is flexible with a good amount of tension (as to not move/shift), so these headphones should fit comfortably for many different people. These headphones hardly moved/shifted when I was working out. The buttons are very tactile and give good feedback to confirm presses (unlike some of my other headphones which have buttons that are very mushy providing little tactile feedback).
> Pairing is pretty straightforward and super simple. Sliding the bump toggle halfway turns on the headphones and sliding it all the way to the right puts the headphones into pairing mode. I appreciate this method more than the push/depress & hold methods which are found on many other headphones (e.g., Sony XM5s). I’m able to switch pretty easily & quickly from my phone, iPad, Macbook Pro, and other devices.
> Audio quality is quite nice and I would say it’s pretty much on par with my Sony XM5 and this goes for the microphone quality as well! When connected to my gaming desktop or laptop, I noticed there isn’t much lag at all when playing games so that’s a big plus (especially crucial for FPS games).
> Battery life is pretty good. I usually have the volume @ 70% and was able to go easily go two days with these (8+ hours each day) before needing to charge. Your mileage may vary but overall, it should last easily a full day with constant usage, which is more than enough for most users :)
Cons:
> None yet so far. I have been using these for the past week and they have been stellar.
Though the Bose QuietComfort WIreless Noise Cancelling headphones come with a high price tag, they are totally worth it. I would highly recommend these to anyone that is looking for wireless over the ear headphones!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great security system with eight 2K cameras.
on August 21, 2023
Posted by: VangTfz
The Night Owl 12 Channel 2K DVR System… TLDR: Great security system with eight 2K cameras.
Onto the review, this system comes with:
> DVR: This system’s DVR has a 1TB HDD. It appears to be upgradeable, however there is no documentation provided (at least easily searchable) with any recommended specs/requirements of drives. Would be nice if Night Owl would provide this information (if they do, it’s not easily accessible). Since the drive itself comes with a 1TB 7,200RPM drive, i’m assuming any 7,200RPM drive will work. To Night Owl’s credit, they do provide a support page illustrating how to upgrade the drive… There are a total of 12 channels, with 8 being wired and 4 being wireless. Since this comes with 8 wired cameras already, if you need to expand your coverage then that means you’ll need to buy compatible wireless cameras.
> Cameras: This system comes with 8 cameras that are 2K resolution (e.g., 2560 x 1440). The cable length is 60ft, which may or may not work out for you depending on the size of your house; in my case, the placement of the DVR was not ideal but i wanted to place my cameras in certain positions so I would have better coverage of my property. The camera’s provide a decent field of view, however compared to my Nest outdoor cameras it’s more narrow (e.g., my Nest cameras have a 130° field of view, not sure what the field of view is for the Night Owls but they aren’t 130°). The video quality is pretty much on par with my Nest cameras; neither really do well in low light conditions but are pretty good in well lit environments. The cameras also provide 2-way audio which is pretty good compared to my Nest cameras; Nest camera speaker and mics were lacking and tiny sounding compared to the Night Owl cameras.
Setting up the system is pretty simple, but can be time consuming. Installation of the cameras took me ~3 hours to ensure I had the cameras where I’d ideally want them for the best coverage. The setup process via the app was pretty straight forward and took less than 30 minutes. The alerts/notifications are pretty much on par with my Nest system and do not go beyond 3–4 seconds when motion is detected. Overall, I would recommend this system to anyone that is looking for security without any monthly costs (e.g, Nest Aware, Ring Protect, etc.). You can’t go wrong with this system!

Awesome scooter!
on August 13, 2023
Posted by: VangTfz
The GoTrax G6… The TLDR: if you want an awesome scooter, go for this one :)
Onto the meat of the review, this scooter requires a bit of assembly when taking out of the box. Following the instructions is pretty straightforward and powering it up for the first time it had around 40% charge. I didn’t charge it to 100% at first and began riding it around for a bit out of sheer excitement. Out of the blocks, I noticed how smooth this was compared to my Segway Ninebot ES4. This is due to the size of the 9” pneumatic tires and front fork suspension! Going over bumps and rocks/pebbles, you hardly feel it. The travel in the suspension is pretty good and makes for a very comfy ride. The brakes on this are awesome as it’s a dual disc brake system. This makes for a very smooth and efficient ride when coming to a halt. Unlike my ES4, the G6 has brake levers on both handles like you’d find on bicycles, which allows for a gradual braking. Pretty awesome considering if you don’t want to fly off the scooter :P Like my ES4, there are three modes in terms of speed. I find that the lowest and middle modes to be more for casual strolls, wherein the top speed you’ll hit is ~14mph. The highest mode allows you to get up to ~20mph, and this varies depending on the gradient (surface slope) which you are riding on. During my first week riding this, i got around 35 miles before getting to the last bar. The range is quite good and definitely beats my ES4 which comes in around 20 miles. The addition of reflectors, brake light and front light allow for peace of mind when riding in low light scenarios (early morning or late nights). Being visible to others is a must have safety feature, and I think GoTrax definitely nailed it with this iteration. Another awesome safety feature is the physical combo lock which sits above the collapsible fork suspension and the console lock :) Makes deviant people think twice before attempting to ride off with your scooter!
Overall, I would highly recommend this scooter. If you’re able to find it on sale, I would say look no further as this is the one to get!

Great all-in-one printer!
on June 27, 2023
Posted by: VangTfz
The LaserJet Pro 4301fdw… The TLDR - great all-in-one printer!
Pros:
> Wireless feature…once hooked up to your network, it's almost pretty seemless to print from any device (e.g., computer, tablet, phone, etc.). Very easy and straightforward to set up and get running.
> Great color space when it comes to printing. Heavy weight paper and photo prints look great. Save on trips to the store or ordering online prints.
> Duplex printing and scanning! Need I say more?
> Speed of printing and scanning… pretty much on par with other laser printers, not to say it's slow but it's just as fast or faster than the competition out there
> Multiple trays for loading various paper types and sizes
> Design and build quality feel top notch
Cons:
> Heavy! This thing is not meant to be moved or to be portable. Setting it up can be a hassle (in terms of us permanent location but not actually the setup process itself).
> Won't print when running low on ink (different from actually out of ink)... Ink is expensive (I won't mention the price but just say a couple sets of ink will go over the price of the printer itself)....
Overall, this is a great all-in-one printer. It's a bit pricey, but definitely geared more towards small to medium sized businesses.

great looking/feeling smart watch lacking a lot...
on June 15, 2023
Posted by: VangTfz
TLDR… a great looking and feeling smart watch with lacking software and mediocre battery life.
Pros:
> Build quality feels awesome. The band it comes with is adjustable, simple as using a SIM ejection pin to remove unneeded length. The buttons and dial seem very durable and provides good feedback to convey presses.
> Look and feel are definitely premium. This bit is definitely subjective, but I personally love the design language here that Citizen went with (there's only so much you can do though right?)
> Activity tracker gives good metrics on health! There is moderately more info compared to my other smart watches.
Cons:
> Battery life was sub par. Could hardly go a day with light use before the battery saver mode had to kick in.
> The watch face options via the Citizen's is very limited… Leaves only a handful of faces to choose from.
>> The watch can't connect via the Wear OS app though it's a Google/Android watch. This is unfortunate since I was hoping to customize the watch face with the Wear OS app…
> The watch feels laggy compared to my other smart watches. When bringing it to my face (via lifting my hand) there is a noticeable delay/lag with the watch waking up. Once I enter my pin, interactions with the watch continue with this behavior of sluggishness (especially if I have apps opened).
> Though this watch can track health/fitness related activities, it doesn't provide any IPX rating… making me feel like that was a big miss… makes me hesitant to sweat it was my hand with the watch on…
Overall, this is a great looking watch but I feel like there were a lot of missed opportunities to make it also a great functioning watch.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great lightweight camera!
on May 26, 2023
Posted by: VangTfz
The Canon EOS R50… This is an entry level camera? Not quite… The pricing indicates it is, however once it’s in your hands you will feel otherwise.
TLDR - If you are looking to get into photography or vlogging, look no further than the EOS R50.
Pros:
> This camera is super lightweight. Makes for taking it anywhere almost a no brainer as you can easily pull it out to begin pointing & shooting.
> Autofocus is very good. Like very good!!! Given the price point, i was surprised at how it was able to keep up with moving targets & targets coming into view (whether snapping a shot or recording a video).
> The vari-angle touchscreen allows for versatility whether point & shooting or vlogging. Anyone looking to get into content creation will definitely be happy with this camera.
> The A+ Assist is actually not too bad, especially when you hand off the camera to inexperienced hands such as my 8 year old son. Would say 3 out of 4 photos came out with decent to great quality shots with occasional ones which were not.
> Burst shot capabilities were very good. Was afraid the camera would overheat, however I was able to get many sequential shots without any issues.
> Battery life is good, considering i had sessions where i took 100+ photos and still had enough juice to keep going.
Cons:
> The location of the USB C charging port is less than ideal. May get in my way one day if i forget to bring spare batteries and have to use the battery pack to charge it while shooting.
> Lens selection is limited…
Overall, this is a great little camera with a lot of versatility. Highly recommend especially for those looking to get their feet wet with content creation!

Look no further, this is the top tier ultrawide
on May 26, 2023
Posted by: VangTfz
The Alienware - AW3423DWF 34" Quantum Dot OLED… Quick a mouthful, but nonetheless it
delivers on multiple fronts with rich feature sets.
The TLDR - If you are in the market for a top tier ultrawide 2k monitor, look no further.
Pros:
> OLED panel does extremely well with regards to response times along with no observable
ghosting.
> Color space is impeccable due to the OLED panel, colors truly pop and make the experience
surreal. This panel makes me truly want to game because of the new look and feel provided by
the color depth & richness. Really felt this when playing some of my favorites such as
Borderlands, Fortnite, etc.
> Curved screen makes gaming/movie watching experience more immersive. At first I thought I
wouldn't like it but it has grown on me and I kind of wish all my other monitors had the same
1800R curvature.
> Design language of the monitor keeps it looking very modern with a touch of futuristic vibes,
meanwhile not being too flashy.
> Build quality seems exceptional in regards to both the monitor & stand. I personally mount
mine on a VESA arm to reduce desk space clutter, but when using the stand i definitely felt the
sturdiness and quality.
> Feature rich settings to tune the monitor to your liking
Cons:
> HDMI 2.0 port instead of 2.1 - felt the omission of 2.1 limited my experience here when i
hooked up the monitor to my PS5 (was capped at 2k resolution @ 60 Hz instead of 2k @
120Hz). Would have loved to see a monitor at this price point provide at least a HDMI 2.1 port.
> UI/UX of monitor settings could be better. Felt like there was a bit of clunkiness in the way the
menus & options were laid out. I almost couldn’t find my way back to turning off the monitor’s
setting for toggling off the frame rate (took me a while to get there & took me even longer to get
there again to turn it off).
For reference, this monitor was paired with my desktops (one running 5900x + 6900XT & the
other running 12900k + 3080ti) and my PS5 for testing. Definitely happy with the framerates the
monitor is cappable of when running alongside hardware which could push it to it’s limits.
Games i play tested on the monitor were Borderlands, Fortnite, Apex, Call of Duty MW2,
League of Legends, Starcraft 2, Elden Ring, & Need For Speed Unbound. Each game felt like a
new experience and the vibes to game are coming back stronger than ever.
Summing up my experience into one word: WOW! I thought i was happy with my LG C2 42”
OLED TV for gaming, however this Alienware ultrawide has taken its place. I couldn’t
recommend this monitor more for gamers & those who are looking to get motivated to game
again. You won’t regret it!

Great comfy wireless headset with swappable batter
on April 23, 2023
Posted by: VangTfz
The Turtle Beach Stealth Pro! TLDR - great comfy wireless headset with swappable batteries.
Now to the details. I primarily use Astro A40s and A50s as my main pair of cans, so trying out the Stealth Pros for the first time was quite interesting. In terms of audio quality, the Stealth Pros were definitely on par with the A40s/A50s. Directional audio was very precise and i did not notice any lag when playing FPS games. In terms of build quality, i feel like it's as premium, if not more than my A50s. There is quite a heft to it though, so that may factor into fatigue for long gaming sessions (which i have not yet experienced but your mileage may vary). The design choice of the Stealth Pros is quite nice in my opinion but that is a pretty subjective area. In terms of comfort, right off the bat the Stealth Pros have quite higher clamping force than my A40s/A50s and this is due to the headphones Noise Cancellation feature. I personally do not like Noise Cancellation as it creates an atmosphere within my ears that is jarring, so i left it off. Additionally, to help with easing up the clamp force a bit, i placed my Stealth Pros on a yoga block to relieve some of the clamp tension. After one night of this, the comfort level of the Stealth Pros were defintely on par with my A40s/A50s and i was a happy camper, pun intended :P One of the best features of this headset is the swappable batteries! I can't tell you how many times i forget to charge my headphones and have to wait for it to get charged in order to play. With my A50s, i usually hang them right on the edge of my desk after gaming sessions, and when I need them again they're usually low on battery or dead. Well, with the Stealth Pros i definitely didn't have anymore of those worries as the batteries here are swappable. I just can't believe this hasn't been a feature other premium brands haven't thought of before or began adopting yet... Truly a game changer! The last bit of detail i have left for the Stealth Pros is the microphone. For sure my friends hear me better with the A40s/A50s, and the clarity and depth of the Stealth Pros were not far behind. It wasn't bad, but if i had to nitpick about something, the microphone could be the only thing.
In terms of settings up, it's pretty intuitive and straightforward. No hassles really, i got my Stealth Pros up and running with a couple of minutes after unboxing it. Using it on my Xbox X & PC and i didn't really experience any issues. The Stealth Pros also come with high quality cables for connecting the receiver battery dock combo, so big kudos to Turtle Beach for that.
Overall, i would highly recommend this for anyone that is truly looking for a premium experience when gaming.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Gets you ready for your day, everyday!

Coming from De’Longhi the Dinamica Espresso Machine, the Magnifica Evo Coffee & Espresso Machine did not disappoint! Unboxing and getting the Magnifica set up took ~20 minutes. De’Longhi provides useful steps in setting up the Magnifica, so if you aren’t slow like me, it may take you less time. The quality of coffee you get is top notch in terms of flavor and richness, and you can’t get any better by going with other brands. Just as with the Dinamica Espresso, the Magnifica has a separate cartridge for the milk, so any leftover milk can be fridged again for next use. The froth is just perfect and leaves you feeling like you have a personal experienced barista…
Pros:
1. parts are removable and dishwasher-safe for super easy cleaning and maintainability
2. fast coffee with great quality
3. great froth; the foam is soft and light and lasts until the last sip
4. UI of the controls is very straightforward and simple to use
Cons:
1. there isn’t an easy way to empty out the coffee ground or beans when using different beans for other drinks
Overall, i only have one minor gripe, and it’s related to when you are making different types of coffee. There really isn’t an easy way to remove the beans that are already in the grinder so you can put in a different set of beans. From what i’m aware of, it's more or less you attempting to tilt the machine over to remove the current set of beans :( Wish this process would be a bit easier and required less effort!
Is it expensive? YES! Is it worth it? YES! I highly recommend the De’Longhi Magnifica Evo Coffee & Espresso machine for anyone that wants to have quality coffee at home. It’ll save you many trips from having to go out, but more importantly it’ll have you feeling ready for your day, every day!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great laptop for a great price!
By VangTfz
Long story short, the Dell XPS 15 9560 is a beast of a machine!
Pros:
- Thin bezels, makes the footprint of the laptop considerably smaller
- Port selection is good (2 usb 3.0 type a ports, audio headphone/microphone combo jack, HDMI 1.4 out, sd card reader and a thunderbolt 3 port)
- Dazzling 4k display with 100% Adobe RGB color space
- Upgradeable ram (2 slots up to 32gb ddr4) and m.2 ssd
- Fingerprint scanner (quick and easy way to login via Windows hello)
- Latest i7 processor (brings a marginal increase in performance over the previous 6th generation i7 along with better power management which equals longer battery life, I usually get a little over 7 hours of use before needing to plug in)
- GTX 1050 (allows for gaming with playable frame rates for demanding games and great frame rates for most games)
Cons:
- Thunderbolt 3 port when connected to either my 4k monitor or 4k tv both shows signs of lag even though I have set both displays to be 60hz in the Intel HD options (the lag is most noticeable on the external 4k displays when playing 4k 60fps content from YouTube) - not sure if it has to do with the fact that it only has 2 lanes vs 4
- HDMI port is not 2.0 (basically means it can't output 4k at 60fps unless you use the thunderbolt 3 port which is buggy)
- Last but not least, the darn placement of the webcam (be prepared for a lot of up the nostrils and chin cam angles
Only real issue so far that I have encountered with this machine is the Wi-Fi dropping every few minutes but I updated the drivers from Dell's website and have yet to see the Wi-Fi drop since.
Would definitely recommend this laptop to anyone who needs a portable quad-core CPU laptop that has great battery life and can do some light to medium gaming!

Not recommended
By Chuck
Took the computer 2 weeks longer than expected to get delivered, then the PC arrives and doesn't even boot up. Sent back to cybertron to repair and they were in no hurry to get it back to me. Told them to just keep it after about another 2 weeks and to refund money. Terrible experience for a PC purchase and will never go through it again.
Horrible Customer Service
June 7, 2017
"In regards to the RMA time, we apologize that you needed it in the first place, but typical turnaround time is currently 7-10 business days, not including transit time."
Wow, they apologize that we as consumers needed their product in the first place... Seems like their quality of customer service is on the same level as their products which is garbage. Stay away from CybertronPC...

So happy
By binkza
I am a gamer/graphic designer and I have to say this turned out to be a pretty good deal. It's so fast and performs so smoothly, but given some of the stuff in this is so new, I had to do some serious software and bios updating in order to achieve stability (it was mysteriously turning on and off, for no reason) If you're tech savvy or have like me, a brother who is, or have the geeksquad protection for this (which I also highly recommend) you should be fine. For a mere mortal like me, things might get a little scary at times, but it's really not hard to do if you have proper guidance. LONG STORY SHORT, I'm LOVING THIS PC :3

It says that it is for the third gen and the 4th gen iPad, but the camera for the iPad Pro 4th gen (2020) is different as the third gen (2018) iPad so for which ipad is this case?

This case is compatible for both 3rd and 4th gen iPad Pro 12.9”. The reason it is compatible with both is because the 3rd gen camera fits in the cutout that is dedicated for the 4th gen LIDR camera. Though it is truly made for 4th gen, the 3rd gen iPad will fit in as well.

Is the keyboard connected via smart connectors or is it Bluetooth?

The keyboard is connected via bluetooth. I keep it in the docked position and have not had any issues with the keyboard waking from sleep to begin typing (even after periods of time when idle).

With a 250GB capacity, this Samsung 850 EVO MZ-75E250B internal Serial ATA hard drive provides plenty of space for your digital media. TurboWrite technology delivers rapid read and write speeds for efficient performance.
 

Does Best Buy install these in desktops, how much?

Geeksquad should be able to help you out with the install, but to be honest, you would probably be able to do so yourself as well - it is pretty much plug and play (while the system is off of course). There are a lot of youtube videos out there which can be referenced when installing the SSD!
