Avoid Dentist Cleaning Bills
on October 15, 2019
Posted by: Mrbell1970
from Fresno
This is my first electric toothbrush and impressed with it so far, when I first took it out the box it was already fully charged so used it right away. It has a very powerful vibrations for cleaning, feels like a professional dental equipment, with modes of cleaning: Clean, Gum Care and Deep Clean. Myself regular clean mode is more than enough for my needs and really could feel the difference of my teeth surface compared to a regular brushing, like I mentioned before felt like I had a cleaning at the dentist. After using it for almost two weeks now, can see an improvement and almost embarrassed that I have not purchase an electric brush sooner. The unit comes with two brush heads for plaque removal, rechargeable base and travel case, not sure how long it will keep a charge since I keep my base plugged in but all parts are small enough to travel. The only thing I should mention as a negative is a bit hard to keep clean since there is a space between the motor base and brush unit, besides that this item is worth the investment.

Great monitor
on September 26, 2019
Posted by: Mrbell1970
from Fresno
Colors and contrast are excellent on this monitor while just surfing but it really shines while gaming if you have a card that has Freesync. I played DOOM which had less graphic lag that my older monitor with is only 30 MHZ, also ran some color and contrast test with good results. Performance overall was great and will satisfied most gamer's and productive folks who use editing software for pictures/videos.
This monitor has VESA mounting 3 video inputs HDMI, DVI, VGA (VGA cable included) 300 nits. The tilt is adjustable but no way to rotate the screen and the base that holds up the monitor feels cheap.
This is a good gaming monitor with a few bells and whistles if you own a compatible AMD GPU.

These headphones are adjustable and offer a tight, stable fit on your ears for the gym. Sweatproof and seem really durable with up to 24 hours on a full charge. Pairing my device was easy with the quick set up guide included but full manaul for features is not included, full manual here: https://www.plantronics.com/content/dam/plantronics/documents-and-guides/en/user-guides/backbeat-fit-6100-ug.pdf.
You need to download the Back Beat App and update device to access the E/Q features were you have 3 choices: PLT Signature Balanced, Bright and Bass modes, I prefer PLT but did check out the bass mode which was really good. Sound quality in general with good highs, mids and lows. Very nice headphones to listen to music while working out or on the plane, list of features include:
Adjustable sport-fit headband
Powerful 40 mm drivers
All-day comfort
Sweat proof and water-resistant
24 hours of power
Awareness mode

I really like the my tap features (this is the ear touch feature you use to control tracks & volume on right headset) were you can customize functions and the awareness mode button were you can quickly hear someone talking to you without lowering the music for a sec. I'm a happy camper with these headphones

Xfinity users may have issues with App
on September 12, 2019
Posted by: Mrbell1970
from Fresno
I could not connect the Shark Clean app to the robot, the app only can connect to a 2.4 GHZ signal. My router is a combination of 2.4 and 5 GHZ and it assigns which one the device uses automatically , the app needs a SSID that is only 2.4. I called Shark customer service (1-888-228-5531) they stated that I might try calling Xfinity so the 2.4 network could have priority, after a chat session with Xfinity mentioned that their router is not design to have separate SSID’s (one 2.4 SSID and one 5 GHZ SSID) and was not recommended. Since I can’t connect the app and use all of the features don't really have much use for it, I did still ran the vacuum by hitting the clean button and it works pretty well but only did one room, It has doorway strips to block locations and seems to get itself out of tight corners but still managed to get stuck in-between my TV and sub woofer.
I think the app needs to be updated to include Xfinity routers.

Fantastic Smoothies & Blender

Posted by: Mrbell1970

This item is perfect if you need a blender and Nutribullet for smoothies, it has a powerful motor with a full size blender and two Nutribullet cup attachments. The base seems to be very sturdy with weight and suction cups, plus a very compact design. I was making smoothies in no time with a press of the extract button that does everything automatically by following recipes in the included recipe book. Chops through ice, nuts etc with ease and easy to clean. I’m very happy with the Nutribullet blender combo.

Features?????
on August 21, 2019
Posted by: Mrbell1970
from Fresno
This is my first dash cam so good instructions on how to operate the features would have been nice, but Cobra is lacking in that dept. After downloading the iRadar app I had to go the settings (physical button on bottom of cam) to connect the device. The instructions tells you in diagram to get the RED iRadar app but after that your on your own. Now it’s not hard to figure out but if your a first timer with a dash cams it probably will take a little extra effort, this is my biggest gripe.
On a positive note from what I can tell? You just hit the record button and forget for continuous recording and it records automatically when you turn the car on, picture quality is good. Things get iffy when iRadar is concern because I did not get any alerts regarding radar but I honestly don’t know how it works since there are no instruction on it so that is a real bummer. Other good thing is that it comes with a 32 gig SD card and physical set up is straight forward.
As far as a basic dash cam, it seems like a good product but radar feature may be more a gimmick (the feature I really wanted) so a little disappointed in this product.
Video of quality here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7CPRY5Sdqs&feature=youtu.be
THE GOOD:
Clear video
Small form factor
Come with 32 gig SD Card

Air frying & Digital
on August 12, 2019
Posted by: Mrbell1970
from Fresno
What I liked:
Digital controls. Are pretty convenient to touch a button and set your time and cooking temp, other times you sort of just want to turn a knob. I’m more of an analog (knob controls) person but I can appreciate that some people love having higher tech digital controls.
One thing that I notice right away is that the digital controls are different. This is good, as many brands seem to buy their Air fryers from a single source then re-brand them. The Chefman digital Air Fryer is different. This fryer has you set the temp then timer, plus the fact that you can stop cooking on a dime (a feature you can’t do on the analog one) makes this a better choice in my opinion.
I cook some hot wings at 375 for 20 mins and they came out perfect (pictured).
What I disliked:
Wished it was a little bigger like 4.5 quarts.
Final Thoughts:
This air fryer is a much better alternative than running an oven during the summer and if you follow the directions can use it as much as myself which is three times a week with enjoyment.

Best design for working out
on August 4, 2019
Posted by: Mrbell1970
from Fresno
SUMMARY
If you’re looking to break a sweat alongside your favorite tunes, At the gym. Or the mountain, the track – wherever you get your workouts these headphones are designed just for that, with wing design that securely keep them in place and long battery life.
THE GOOD:
Adjustable EQ
Excellent battery life 70 hour w/ case
IP66 Sweatproof and dust resistant
Can play one ear bud at a time (left side only for music)
Great sound
Good fit
Excellent battery life 70 hour w/ case
IP66 Sweatproof and dust resistant

Great sound
Good fit
THE BAD:
Charging case on the big side
Not a very sleek design
Limited EQ options
Bass Boost is lacking compared to others
Not a very sleek design
Limited EQ options
Bass Boost is lacking compared to others
Epic Air Sport has many ear tip options are included. Inside a flip-out section of the box are seven different choices: Four sizes of silicone ear tips, a pair of double-layered ear tips, triple-layered ear tips, and foam ear tips. I preferred the standard silicone in most instances, but the foam was nice in particularly noisy settings. You will have no trouble finding a great fit.
Pairing is a easy process, which is something that can't be said for others. Power up, you hold down the power button on both earphones for a few seconds. Then you pair one earpiece with your mobile device, and the other with the now-paired first earpiece, and you're set. The status LEDs blink rapidly or slowly during this process to guide you and let you know when both earpieces are ready.
Sound is really good and the fact that you have 3 EQ options (although I wish there were more custom options) make this even better but Jlab siganture EQ is the best while the Bass option is not as good as other headphones I have.
Call quality is good as well. I should also mention that Bluetooth range is excellent too, main Bluetooth antenna seems to be on the right side so will have to have your phone on that side if you don’t want any cut off’s (I wish manufactors would have the anttenna on both sides)
FINAL THOUGHTS:
Epic Air earphones deliver a strong sound signature that is typical of workout-focused in-ear pairs: but with enough definition in the high-mids and highs to keep a semblance of balance. The sound will motivate your workouts. You're looking at a solid option. And of the true wireless designs we've tested, the JLab manages to have the most useful controls and best charging case at a comparatively reasonable price. But some option from Apple are hard to beat and offer deeper Bass plus price tag:)
I really do like these and if I didn’t own others in higher categories, these would have been my daily drivers. The features like built in USB cable for case, battery life and great overall performance does put this above some others.

Main complaint is that the sales rep said this laptop, purchased as an open box item, would receive the Windows 10 upgrade. On turning it on & trying to upgrade, I found out that the laptop, in fact, cannot receive the Win10 upgrade. Always disappointing when a sales rep overpromises and under delivers!! Other than that, it seems to be a nice laptop but I won't keep it because Windows 8 drives me crazy!

2 out of 5A nice tablet for books. That's really it.
By MK555
Apps run okay but the real problem is streaming and internet browsing. I'm telling you, generic tablets are faster... I thought it was my internet at first but all my other devices work phenomenally fast. I first noticed this after I started using it but I thought I would give it a shot. I've decided to return this and exchange for another $50 tablet tomorrow. This is because I couldn't even watch a simple youtube video today.
Here's what I did like. It's name brand. The games are nice and mostly ad free. It uses Android 5.0 but uses their own app store. Reading books is great. Library app is kinda slow but still works.
Perfect cheap tablet for kids age 6 to 13 maybe...

Tested this computer at the store and when you move the screen you can see the panel flex in the lower corner about an inch above the hinge on the edge of the screen on each side. This effect happens when just moving the screen back and forth even gently. Not sure how long the screen will last like that otherwise seemed pretty awesome for what it is.

Lenovo's cheaply made
December 14, 2015
I have a Lenono G50-45 and can confirm the build quality is flimsy at least on their entry level laptops, don't even take it anywhere for two reasons: 1st I think it will break easily, 2nd the battery life is not good, even bought a Asus Chromebook because of these issues. Other issues were the wifi taking 6-8 mins to reconnect after sleep mode, cursor freezing (seem to went away after updating to Win 10) but everything else was fine with it but would much rather have a similar spec Asus that been on sale a couple times this year for $399 (not at Best Buy unfortunately )

Bought this tv on black Friday and purchased the 5 year warranty. After a couple days it started to have a pink cloud affect on the screen. Tonight it just shut off and had no picture but sound. Sat on hold with geek squad 2 seperate times. First time I was hung up on second time I was told to take it back in. When I purchased the warranty I was told with the size of tv they would come out to my house to repair or replace it. So I called the store and sat on hold another 20 min. When I finally talked to someone they said it's not there problem after it leaves the store and I would have to do whatever the geek squad tells me to do. Disappointed in lg and even more disgusted with best buy. Great customer service until you walk out the door than who cares

I bought this phone to see if it would work on a free government plan (Safelink) and did not want to pay a lot for premium phone but did want some premium features. The phone works perfectly on Safelink (I am extremely happy about not paying a cell bill anymore) plus does everything a $400 phone does. This phone outperforms my Samsung Galaxy Core Prime in every way and for $130 (on sale plus I had Best Buy points) . Great build quality, fast processor, plenty of storage and ram. Picture quality is good to me, since I'm use to entry level phones but does not compare to other premium phones.

4 out of 5Solid Construction, Excellent Display
By LJG500
Solid, above average aluminum construction and a very good, 1080p IPS display. Performance is good, but not exceptional with the Braswel N3160 CPU, however, 4GB of ram and 32 gb of flash memory are above average for a consumer grade Chrome laptop. Lack of SD card reader is puzzling- but having two USB 3 ports is helpful, for example, when connecting to an external hard drive. Be advised that some Chrome extensions can hamper performance, and if ad blocking is use, I would recommend Ublock Origin versus Adblock, as the later significantly decreases performance (Chrome Web Store). Finally, this laptop should run Android apps sometime in 2016/2017.

Experience legendary performance and sound of ASTRO Audio V2, with the convenience and freedom that comes without wires. The A50 Wireless + Base Station for PS5 /PS4 / PC delivers top-of-the-line acoustics, ergonomics, comfort and durability that gamers demand. The all-new Base Station provides clear, low-latency voice communication, while making headset pairing and charging simple. The ASTRO Command Center software allows gamers and streamers to tune every input and output parameter of the A50 precisely for their specific setup. Experience absolute audio immersion with the A50 Wireless + Base Station.
From past reviews on the A50s there was a charging station to headset connection issue. In this new A50 headset has that been fixed? Does the mic take out background noise up to how many DBs? Does the RF automatically select the best frequency?
Safeguard your home with this Arlo security camera system. Its 4K resolution provides maximum clarity so you don't miss a single detail, and a siren is integrated so you can fend off intruders either remotely or while at home. This Arlo security camera system is weather-resistant, so it's functional rain or shine.
Do the Ultra cameras have improved motion detection compared to the Pro 2? I currently get false alerts when the Pro 2 detects shadows from tree limbs. I would like to upgrade only if the Ultra has improved motion detection.
Can't answer your question regarding comparison, but I had the same issue with the Ultra regarding shadows/tree and resolved it by lowering motion sensitivity to 65% and limit the motion detection area.

I have a Cannon wireless printer and there was no app for it in the store but they do have a HP one and a print app that uses Google print server which mean you would have to log in to Google to print from your device.

Do Amazon Fires purchased through Best Buy contain the loaded Amazon screensaver you have to PAY to remove?
Yes it has a ad on lock screen.
Does not bother me at all in fact barely notice it once I unlock the screen, I would not pay to get rid of it since its only in screensaver mode but that's me.
