A Great Multi-Purposed Printer!
on March 19, 2019
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
The Canon G4210 is mega tank ink printer that has fax, copy, print and scan capabilities. My first impression of this printer is that it came with plenty of ink and then some to spare! I will further elaborate on key elements of this printer:
Setup-of this printer had plenty of challenges! I presently have 3 Brother printers in operation all of which setup was a breeze for each. I have previously owned 2 Canon printers in the past, BJC 4400 and 5000 series printers, which were great printers. However, setup of this printer was a night mare! I had an arduous time trying to get my Wi-Fi to ‘find’ this printer! I will note, I have several Wi-Fi connections in place, and I couldn’t get any to find this printer the first 4 attempts with the included CD. Finally, while on call awaiting support from Canon, my Wi-Fi successfully found and accepted this printer! And, as setup was nearing completion, a representative answered the phone, who was very pleasant in demeanor. I explained to her how difficult setup was and that seemingly everything was working properly. She stayed on the phone to make sure that everything went well.
Printing performance-I am pleased to report, despite the difficult setup process, this printer prints crisp clean legible prints that truly compares to laser printing. I did some comparison printing to my Brother MFC J485DW, inkjet printer and the Canon was far superior. While the Brother ink jet prints well as the blacks are rich in color texture and do not smudge, the Canon presents a better overall clearer printing imagery. The printer runs smoothly and while it does make noise, it’s nothing that will cause distraction. Copies reproduce pretty decent from this printer as well. This printer’s scanning capabilities are good as scans come out clear and concise. I cannot attest to its faxing capabilities as I don’t have a land line in my home. Seemingly, faxing is becoming obsolete as scanning, emailing and signature services are decreasing its needs significantly. However, it is a feature that is better to have if the need arises, but there are viable alternatives.
App-the app (Canon Print Inkjet/Selphy) that Canon employs for tablets and cell phones is extremely user-friendly. I obtained the app from the Android play store and ran a few test prints. Printing from this app is great!
Miscellaneous-Canon Utilities have some great included resources such as IJ Network Scanner EX2, Printer Assistant Tool, Image Display, My Image Garden, Quick Menu and Speed Dial. I found the Image Garden to be a very useful tool because I enjoy creating calendars, birthday cards, labels, collages, etc., for special occasions.
Despite, the difficult time in setup of this printer, I do recommend it as Canon has really designed this printer with savings to the consumer in mind. I readily recall that printer manufactures would sell printers for cheap, knowing that their monies would be recovered in the costs of ink. Canon claims that the ink will not dry up because of the tight seal that keeps the ink moistened. I don’t know the costs of these mega bottles when it comes time to purchase ink, but I have my fingers, toes, eyes and everything that I can cross that this scenario won’t take place any time soon!

First off, let me open with how excited I was to be chosen to review this phone based on the dynamic products that Sony, a pioneer in entertainment produces. However, I quickly deflated based on the AWFUL performance of this phone. I will elaborate on aspects of the phone’s performance that were troubling to me:
Setup- After unpacking the phone which came in a standard box with a few informational packets, the phone itself, and proprietary charger, I began to setup the phone which took 3 tries. It proved to be a daunting task when trying to copy information from my Motorola phone to the Experia.
Phone Calls-Initially when calling and accepting of calls, I experienced clear communications; however, today when I talked it was made known to me that communications weren’t clear.
Performance-As of yesterday, there is an obtrusive interference that frequently comes in informing me that I need to update to the latest version of Android. However, I am updated to the latest version of Pie. I input my IMEI number, which informed me that I was up to date with the latest version of Pie which is 53.0.A.4.79. Apps are beginning to freeze up followed by a message that says, “Xperia isn’t responding!” Moreover, when I place the phone down, it starts to spin unrelentless!
Battery life-Seemingly battery life dissipates fast on this phone. Unfortunately, the phone isn’t going through a day without needing a charge.
Display-I have experienced where the display lighting goes in and out. Sometimes, it appears to be light then it will fade into darker lighting.
Texting-is something that I do on a regular. Unfortunately, because of the uneven lighting, it causes problem when texting as I cannot see clearly.
Youtube Videos- I was excited about viewing of Youtube videos; however, it has not been an enjoyable experience because of the obtrusive interference that comes into the phone frequently which prevents me from enjoying and/or doing things.
I am going to continue to try this phone out for possibly a few more days, if an update hasn’t taken place that will vastly improve performance, then it doesn't leave any viable option, but to turn back to my Motorola G5 plus, which has served me extremely well. Needless to say, in good consumer faith, I cannot recommend this phone until a serious software update takes place that will correct these arduous problems!!

Logitech Has Up The Game In A Big Way!!
on March 11, 2019
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
These headphones came neatly packaged that was designed aesthetically beautiful! The headphones are truly designed to give gamers an immersive experience while gaming. I was truly blown away with the amazing color spectrum that these headsets offer. I noticed as action increased, the lightsync reacted to the action which builds on intensity.
Logitech did an amazing job at making sure the headphones have comfort in both feel and fit. Also, the overall style is pretty cool too! I did not experience any pinching of my ears after prolong usage as the bass is richly embedded. As such, if you’re a gamer and happen to be amidst an intense game these headphones will serve you well from a sound perspective. In other words, they will keep pace with your performance while gaming.
I want to truly commend Logitech on staying to the fore front in technology. They’ve truly proven time and time again, that they know and understand what consumers need for technological usages.
The only true con that I can see is that they are wired. I prefer wireless when gaming for intensity purposes. If you’re a gamer these will keep pace with you, but please be mindful that they are wired!

Experience portable creative power with this 14-inch LG gram two-in-one laptop. Featuring a 14-inch touch display and Wacom AES pen, this laptop lets you write and draw directly on the screen. This LG gram laptop delivers fast, long-lasting performance with an Intel Core i7 processor and up to 21 hours* of battery life per charge.
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
My first impression of the LG gram was how feather light it is however; unfortunately, the light weight has a cheap feel in my opinion. I have an HP Spectre,2016 model that looks and feels premium! Also, it has brought me great results. While, I know and understand these are two vastly different computers because of make, model, performance and appearance, yet they both are ultra books. The following are some areas worth noting about the LG Gram:
Setup-I love the initial setup that is provided, compliments of Cortana who truly is a great assistant from biographical information, account setup/s, login info, etc.. This artificial intelligence truly leaves no stones unturned and performs at a highly efficient rate!
Ports-LG has included some great ports such as HDMI, USB-A, USB-C, Headphone jack, ethernet connector to name a few. There ports serve for multiple purposes that users may have.
Performance-The Gram boots up and shuts down at a speedy rate. I found the gram to handle opening of multiple windows efficiently. The gram handles opening of multiple windows at an efficient rate. I haven’t experienced any sluggish performance or lag in the Gram thus far.
Storage-I am blown away that the GRAM offers 512 gb of SSD along with 16 gb of memory. I am certain that this computer will meet my needs for future proof purposes.
Keyboard-The keyboard which is lighted feels pretty tactile and sturdy. However, in comparison to the Spectre which has keys that feel exceptional to one’s fingers.
Pen-I found the Wacom pen that accompanies the Gram to be very intuitive and user-friendly. If you’re are a graphics illustrator or sketcher, you’ll truly appreciate what this pen offers.
Screen-the Gram has a 1920X1080 resolution with FULL HD which offers a decent picture. However, at the price point, I would have like to have seen a better resolution offered.
Audio-The audio performance on this laptop is decent, but not strong as I thought it would be being that this laptop is of premium design and performance. I have observed upon notification of E-mail messages; sound is sort of faint and this is at maximum volume.
Battery Life-LG claims 21 hours of battery life. I discovered after a full charge, I am only able to get 10 hours of battery life which is decent.
Overall, I think LG hasn’t done enough to make this a true top contender and this is in comparison to a nearly 3-year-old model that I have. Computers are supposed to deliver faster performance and features. However, I don’t see a single thing or things that make this laptop a WOW factor that I can say tech has made a major stride.

This device comes at a great time as I am currently experiencing a difficult time in getting a simple, good night’s rest!

These in-ear headphones were so easy to connect. Shortly thereafter, I paired them with my cell phone which instantly took place. The sound produced from these ear buds is great, and they stay in place within my ears well. I received clear communications when playing my songs from Dropbox from my phone. Also, the range throughout my home was decent. I did not experience any cutouts, drop signals, or unclear audio.
I think JBL has done a great job with this product from design, wear, functionality as well as usefulness.

Record road trips with this Rexing dash cam. Its built-in GPS logger and G-sensor safely store footage in addition to time, location and speed without a separate accessory.

from Birmingham, AL
Let me start with…..I wish this were available when I had fender benders that weren’t necessarily my fault, yet per one officer’s finding, “I cannot determine location of debris impact!” This is an AWESOME system that has some very cool features. Mainly, I am geeked to know that I have a recording system in my car that will capture video of what’s going on around me while driving.
The installation of this system is user-friendly, but I will note, please take your time and make sure you follow the steps closely. The built in GPS accurately records speed, time, dates and locations of recordings. The video display is crystal clear.
Overall, I highly recommend this system to users, because one never knows when a wreck can possible occur and you’ll have that reliable witness that has you covered.

A Great Multi-Purpose Speaker!!
on December 29, 2018
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
This is a great multi-purpose speaker as it can be used at the beach, pool party, smaller rooms, to name a few. I found the speaker to be easy to pair as the lights beckons for disco fever. The sound is fairly good for a speaker of this size. It has very good bass, as such I believe it can rise to any occasion and give a great listening experience. I would like to commend Anker on producing a product with great features at affordable cost.

Another Awesome Product from Jaybird!!

Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
Jaybird’s headphones have always served me well, The Tarah Pro is no different as this is my second pair of Jaybird’s as I have the Jaybird run, which I love their performance as well as features. The sound is amazing as I don’t experience any breakups, cracking, to the contrary I receive clear and concise audio performance. The feel of these headphones is amazingly comfortable and lightweight as I minimally feel them within ears while walking. I have only used these headphones for a week; however, the battery life is amazing as I’ve only had to do one charge for my daily morning walks.

Great Portable Scanner!
on December 21, 2018
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
Wow, this little Minnie Mouse works great for documents, especially letter-sized documents, receipts, business cards, driver’s licenses etc....This scanner creates very nice images or PDFs that are clear and concise. It has the main feature of portability, thus if you’re on the go and need documents of importance signed, this is the perfect solution.
Setup of this scanner was user-friendly only requiring per documentation from Epson, to go to their website for this model ES-65WR: www.epson.com/support/es65wr and download and install the drivers and utilities combo software package and from there you are go to go. I am especially glad that this unit can be charged via USB which lasts a long time as such, you don’t have to worry about carrying an adapter because it’s USB charged.
The software, which has premium accounting features that automatically extracts data from receipts and invoices to Excel and Quickbooks. As tax season nears, this is going to be helpful for me. I am glad that this scanner has the ability to scan files to the clouds as I am a regular user of Dropbox as such, this will come in handy for me. Another feature worth noting is that this scanner can automatically detect whether its in wireless or USB mode.
Customary to Epson and their products this scanner is great as I already have an Epson scanner, which works wonderfully. As such, this is no exception because it certainly does what I want, and well.

I needed a basic keyboard since the one on my lap top stopped working. It worked fine for a few weeks. Having a problem now, It types Caps without putting on the Cap key, It skips spaces. Then the next day It will be fine for awhile and do the same thing again. Only paid $12.99 for it and that is just about what it is worth. I have had it over a month and as I said it was great for about 2 weeks.

By Hpandme
It's my fault for not reading the fine print but I now realize that this desktop does not have a CD/DVD Rom Drive. This is important to me since I do play games on my computer. It's smaller than the picture looks...about the size of a gallon of milk and I just got it , so I don't have any comments yet on the performance. The keyboard is compact too, wish it was wireless. Otherwise, a great buy.

I have the same desktop; however, it is with the i3 processor. Yes, it does come with a keyboard and mouse which are both paired. As a result, all one needs to do is plug and play. The desktop comes with several ports if a person desires to use an external CD/DVD player, the unit can accommodate the need by using one of the USB ports. I have an extra keyboard (which is bigger) and mouse that I use along with the included keyboard and mouse. So, if the included keyboard and mouse are not to your satisfaction, there are several USB ports that can be used to accommodate something else.
