JBL - Under Armour Sport Flex Wireless In-Ear Behind-The-Neck Headphones setup is quick and easy. I was able to connect my iPhone quickly using Bluetooth. I am wearing this headphones everyday as it was so much convenient while running / biking due to long battery life around 12 hours.
The headphones feel good while wearing and well built. The design protect the headphones slipping around the neck while doing workouts. The ear-buds are magnetic and it is really cool design to keep them together while not using it. The buttons are very easy to use for play, pause and volume adjustments. Another great feature is RunSafe LED which allows you to configure three flashing modes while running in the dark.
It supports Bluetooth 4.1 interface to enable simple pairing and wireless streaming with compatible devices. Supports HFP, HSP, A2DP and AVRCP Bluetooth profiles. The headphones are sweat-resistant to provide protection from sweat, so you can easily wear these headphones while working out.
The sound quality is amazing and this headphone is very comfortable to wear and lightweight. The battery is great and providing close to 12 hours. I was able to charge quickly. I use this headphone all day during work and workout. It is one of the best headphone owned by me and another outstanding product from JBL.

Turtle Beach Mic is an excellent option for PC and gaming consoles. I was able to assemble less than 5 mins with the insturctions given the box. The look and feel is good and it is heavy to stand on table without falling down. I have connected this to my gaming PC and it recognized immediately. I have tested with voice recorder and recording quality is crisp and clear.
This mic is very handy for skype meetings, video chats etc. It has universal plug and play compatibility for all type of devices. It is perfect fit for recording livestream commentary, vocals, podcasts, voiceovers and interviews. It comes with multiple mounting options and it can be adjusted to fit user needs. It's studio-grade digital processing balances EQ, gain and compression to deliver superior voice performance so anyone can stream like a pro.
I would definitely recommend Turtle Beach mic to anyone who are looking for a mic for recording, chats, live streaming etc.

Great Antenna for HD Local channels
on April 18, 2018

from Chander AZ
MOHU Sail 75 setup is quick and easy. I was able to assemble and installed within 30 mins. I have used few antennas in the past to cut the cord and none of them really worked. The quality is outstanding compare to previous ones. I was able to get more than 30 HD changes and many SD channels. The reception is great after installing into my attic. MOHU Sail delivers excellent 1080 HD channels.
The antenna is slightly larger but it is very lightweight and i don't have any issues installing in attic as i had lot of space in attic. It is good to see an amplified antenna powered by USB. It comes with 30 feet cable and powered amplifier. It is very powerful antenna and reception is great to provide crystal clear picture.
I would recommend to anyone who are looking to get local HD channels without going through cable companies. It is definitively a good start for cutting cable cost.

Outstanding Alienware Gaming PC!!!
on April 13, 2018
Posted by: Selva
from Chander AZ
Alienware Aurora R7 is an excellent gaming PC came with 8th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-8700 6 core processor with twelve-way processing performance and coupled with 16GB DDR4 RAM, 2 TB 7200 RPM HDD with Intel Optane Memory. Intel Optane works perfectly to boost performance forexisting hard drive. However, i will be adding SSD soon on this amazing PC to boost more performance.
The case is very slick and i love the color changing LED panel and it is treat to watch. Inside there is plenty of room for additional drives and RAM. One really nice feature is that the 16GB of memory came in two DIMM's, leaving another two memory slots free if you'd like to expand the memory to 32GB.
GTX 1080 is amazing graphics card with 8GB GDDR5. It comes with three DisplayPort ports and one HDMI port. I was able to use my ASUS 32" 4K monitor to pair up with the PC, I must admit that the graphics are simply superb. It handles all type of games without any issues.
It has 7 SuperSpeed 10Gbs USB 3.1 ports with ultra-fast data connections to transfer large files rapidly and 6 USB 2.0 ports for quick plug-and-play connectivity for your devices and accessories. Killer Wireless-AC 1535 wireless LAN connects to both wireless frequencies (802.11a/b/g/n/ac) for the fastest available signal. Killer Game Networking LAN also lets you plug into wired 10/100/1000 networks.
Bluetooth 4.1 interface syncs with compatible devices Wirelessly transfer photos, music and other media between the desktop and your Bluetooth-enabled cell phone or MP3 player, or connect Bluetooth wireless accessories.
This PC outperformed my existing gaming PC with GTX 1070 and i must admit that this PC exceeded expectations with processer and graphics performance at least 40% margin without SSD.
I am using this as HTPC also connected with Epson 5030UB projector with Plex Media Server, Kodi and CyberLink Power DVD setup. Due to high end graphics card, the picture quality is really crystal clear on big screen for Blu-ray Discs and 4K videos. It runs very silent
On the complaints side, the included mouse and keyboard are extremely cheap, and i have replaced it with my existing gaming keyboard. If you can replace the keyboard and mouse with your own, this PC is a really good for gaming or HTPC. It comes with DVD drive and with this price they should have included
All-in-all, this a great pre-configured gaming PC at a great price with outstading performance.

Outstanding Bluetooth Speaker!!!

Sony - SRS-XB41 Portable Bluetooth Speaker packaging is excellent. It came with speaker and charging cable. The design is very unique and well built. Setup is quick and easy. I was able to connect using Bluetooth and NFC options without any issues. It has full size USB port along with audio port. I was amazed with sound quality and clarity after playing a song from my iPhone. The color changing LED lights are really cool while playing songs. The bass is really good as well from this speaker.
Battery life is really solid and came around 24 hours. It took around 5 hours to charge fully. I was playing a song with full sound and fill the entire living room with great sound quality. The ability to connect more than 100 speakers is a great feature and it will help to place speakers in each room. I already own SONY SRS-XB31 and able to pair with SRS-XB41.
The quality is much better and wide in SRS-XB41 compare to SRS-XB31 due to increased size. Live Sound is an amazing feature to get 3D sound experience.
I have installed the SONY Music control and it has tons of features to control music. The call quality is great with this Bluetooth speaker. SONY built a very solid Bluetooth speaker with better sound quality with bass. The price is reasonable as well. My kids are using this speaker very regularly due to the color lights and party mode.
SONY always make better products in TVs, Cameras and they have entered in audio space with quality products like SRS Series Bluetooth speakers.

Simplisafe - Protect Home Security System installation is quick and easy. It took less than 30 mins to install the base, control pad, motion sensor and entry alarms for all doors / windows. It came 4 entry alarms, base, control pad and motion sensor. The design of the base is really good and size of the sensors are great as well. I was able to rename the values by specific location in keypad so that it can be identified which is open or close. It came with cellular connection and was able to connect the home Wi-Fi without any issues. In case of power cut, it will keep monitoring your home for additional 24 hours.
The monthly monitoring fees with no contracts starts at $14.95 and $24.95. Even though you have option of running a standalone home security system without monitoring, 24/7 Alarm Monitoring for $14.99, 24/7 Alarm Monitoring and APP support for mobile for $24.99.
I will be ordering additional door sensors and cameras to expand my home security.
It is perfect product for those who don't have existing pre-wired for home security system. Simplisafe provided products to satisfy those user needs with competitive pricing to enable home security.

Outstanding AC Extender. Excellent Performance!
on March 12, 2018
Posted by: Selva
from Chander AZ
Linksys RE9000 extender setup is quick and easy. I have configured with my Netgear CM7800 Modem / Router combo. This extender will work with any router. It is easy to configure using WPS button from your router or you can configure using browser setup. It is recommended to put the extender within best Wi-Fi coverage to extend further inside the house. I have used the same SSID instead of different SSID. I wanted to connect certain devices like Home monitoring system in second floor. This extender helped to achieve the same without any issues.
The performance of this extender is outstanding. I have two story house and router is sitting in first floor living room. I had weak signals in second floor rooms. I have placed this extender in second floor and now i am getting full speed of 300+ Mbps in speedtest.net in second floor.
This extender is compatible with most 802.11a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi routers / gateways to extend your existing network's range and create a stronger signal in hard-to-reach areas. With MU-MIMO technology, we are able to connect more than 25+ devices and no more slow down on internet. I like the idea of spot finder technology with one push button and it will expand the coverage to everywhere in house. There are 4 Gigabit Ethernet ports will allow to connect wired devices.
This extender exceeded the expectations and Wi-Fi signal is very solid throughout the house. It is worth to buy this extender to extend the Wi-Fi signal to get outstanding results.

Complete Protection for Home Connected Devices!
on March 9, 2018
Posted by: Selva
from Chander AZ
Device / Privacy protection is number one requirement for many users. As we are moving more into internet things, it is important that all our smart home devices are protected at most. The challenge most of the protection software comes with 3 users license and unlimited licenses are bit pricey. Also, lack of support for various devices / operation systems including mobile OS and no protection for internet connected things such as TVs, Receivers etc.
Bitdefender - BOX 2 Smart Home Cyber Security Hub has solution for all of these. The design is sleek. Setup is quick and easy. Download the Bitdefender App either in iOS or Android and login with existing account or create a new account. It can be configured either with existing modem and act as router or it will work as bridge mode with existing modem / router. There is a 24/7 support number provided if any issue arise during installation.
Once it is connected to the network, it will scan all connected devices within the network. It will provide information about ongoing events and will help to prevent security breaches. Since all the devices are connected with Box Wi-Fi, my entire home devices are protected rather than few devices. It will block all suspicious links and sites. It is easy to unblock the links in the app.
In current world, it is important to protect all of our data as most of us store our contents in cloud like Dropbox, Box or OneDrive. Also, many of us are using password safes to store all our passwords. If the network is not protected, it is possible that we might lose all our data including financial information.
I am impressed with the concept and design of Bitdefender Box 2 Smart Home Cybersecurity Hub. I highly recommend this product to provide full home protection for connected devices.

By Jacobs

I bought this router to replace my perfectly working Asus RT-66R model. I wanted to change my router just to get bit more range in my new 2200sqft home. Prior to getting this router I have tried one of the best range extender Ampedwireless AE-20. It’s range was excellent, but connection was very much degraded and struggled to get connected at times though it was set up to clone settings from original router.
So, after reading few positive reviews on BBY and mixed reviews on amazon, I decided to give new Nighthawk R8000 a try. I am happy with its slightly improved range than Asus and very much disappointed with its 2.4Ghz performance. I have more than 15 years of network experience and I really don’t bother tech support unless until it is really out of my hand and hardware specific.
Here I am trying to do a fair comparison with two routers I have (Asus & Netgear) + sign means “better” and – signs means “poor”
Wired Connection:
+ RT-66R has excellent wired connection which works at par with Motorola SB6141’s consistency
+ RT-66R has excellent wired connection which works at par with Motorola SB6141’s consistency
- R8000 has fair wired connection with slight consistency issues.
Wireless 5.0 Ghz:

- RT-66R Not applicable (does not come with this feature)
+ R8000 excellent connection with full speed by ISP’s
Wireless 2.4 Ghz:
+RT-66R has excellent connection with 80~Mbps out of my actual 120~Mbps ISP feed at channel 6 with 450 Mbps capability.
+RT-66R has excellent connection with 80~Mbps out of my actual 120~Mbps ISP feed at channel 6 with 450 Mbps capability.
- R8000 is a complete failure in terms of 2.4Gh network
I have tried all available channels and found it degrade my 120~Mbps connection 1-14 ~ Mbps
I have tried all available channels and found it degrade my 120~Mbps connection 1-14 ~ Mbps
At this point I called customer service and it sounded like they kind of aware of the issue. With minimal trouble shooting and changing the channels to their recommended channels (01, 06, 09 & 11), there was no improvement. So they asked me to degrade from 600Mpbs to 289Mbps and it started working.
So technically now their claim of 3200Mbps became 2911Mbps.
Access Control:
+ RT-66R has fairly good access control capabilities. You can schedule what time of the day each device can access the internet. This feature is important for me as I found it is very useful with kids on top of parental control settings.
+ RT-66R has fairly good access control capabilities. You can schedule what time of the day each device can access the internet. This feature is important for me as I found it is very useful with kids on top of parental control settings.
- R8000 access control only let you allow or deny connecting a particular device. You cannot decide what time it should be able to connect. – Major drawback for me.
Parental Control:
- RT-66R has poor parental control settings, but with an option to point DNS to OpenDNS we can achieve better parental control settings with their FREE offerings.
+R8000 – also use OpenDNS but with dedicated service assigned to netgear so that you can add bypass account also which can’t be done with OpenDNS free account. This is the only additional benefit I found with this router so far compared to RT-66R.
VPN:
+ RT-66R is also able to use OpenVPN with mobile access with their free App. I was abe to access local network using iOS and Android devices with no issues.

+R8000 – very useful feature if you have your router in bedroom or other place you don’t like lot of flashing lights. Can be accessed via web GUI and with a dedicated hard button at the rear of the router.
USB Storage and Cloud access:
+RT-66R allow you to create a personal cloud with your router with AiCloud application. I am able to enjoy my music and movies over AiCloud on the move.

- R8000 – could not find any documentation about cloud access. Only information I found is about ReadyCloud and it is dedicated to Netgear NAS only. Another major setback for an expensive router.
Web GUI:
Though Netgear has a simple interface and easy to follow GUI, it lack modern look and feeling. I like Asus GUI better.

- Netgear – Though I received prompt customer service when I called, it was shocking to learn that the phone support is only available for 90 days of purchase, then you have to pay PREMIUM subscription to get phone support.
CONCLUSION:
I have thoroughly tested all important feature that I need. Rest of the features are generic to me and I am not bothered much about them.
I am sure this router with Dual 5.0Ghz network will be very useful for those who have new wireless devices. For me I have a lot of devices that depends on 2.4Ghz frequency such as smoke detectors, thermostat, laptop that connects to NAS for backup etc. and degraded and unreliable 2.4Ghz network make it absolutely worthless considering the amount I spent on this router.
I am seriously thinking to take this back to the store. I don’t see any point in spending almost double amount of money to get a couple of benefits and a lot of drawbacks and pay for a premium to get their phone support if needed to an overpriced product.
I would not recommend this router at its current price and it is unable to meet its original claims and comes with a premium phone support after 90 days.

5 out of 5Outstanding 2-in-One Tablet from Samsung

There are not much Android tablets with premium specs in the market compare to Apple iPad, but Samsung is not ready to give up the fight with the release of high-end Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 with significantly updated specs, HDR screen and improved S Pen support. It is equally positioned with iPad Pro.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 screen has a 9.7-inch 1536 x 2048 Super AMOLED display with support of HDR content and it matches the iPad Pro 9.7 in size and resolution. Samsung Tab S3's screen size and resolution have not changed with pixel density of 264 pixels per inch. It has Super AMOLED display, for brighter, richer colors. The main upgrade over the Tab S2 is HDR content support. There is not a huge amount of HDR content yet, but once there is this it will be really helpful with Samsung Galaxy Tab S3. Another big change for this model is that there's no 8.0-inch option, Tab S3 only coming in a 9.7-inch size.
Tab S3 has metal and glass build with similar size to Tab S2. Samsung upgraded the design for the Galaxy Tab S3, replacing the soft plastic back of the Tab S2 with a glass one, but retaining the metal frame. The overall appearance like an oversized Samsung Galaxy S7.
While cameras are never the highlight of a tablet, Samsung Tab S3 came with 13MP back side camera and 5MP front facing camera with LED flash. It does include an autofocus and can record 4K video at 30fps.Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 came with 6,000mAh one and it can last up to 12 hours of video playback. I have used more than 10 hours without any issues. It supports fast charging via USB Type-C, so you shouldn't be waiting too long.
Tab S3 runs the latest major version of Android 7.0 overlaid with Samsung's own interface. It came with quad-core Snapdragon 820 chipset and 4GB of RAM. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 only comes in one size - 32GB, but it also has a microSD card slot with support for cards of up to 256GB if you need more storage for apps and games.
Beyond the core specifications, Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 is packed full of features, including support for Samsung's S Pen stylus. This is the latest and greatest version of the stylus, with a smaller 0.7mm tip and increased pressure sensitivity. It also works with S Pen features like Screen Off Memo, which lets you take down notes without turning the screen on or launching an app. The Tab S3 also supports keyboards using a pogo connection, so all that along with the screen specification make this remarkably similar to the iPad Pro 9.7.

Hi Malack,
Apps can be downloaded from Google Play or Samsung Store. If you are looking for side loading apps from 3rd party, you can do that as well. It is similar like S2 with upgraded features.

How can I order this so it arrives just in time for Christmas as it only has a 15 day return policy right?
You can order online and choose two day shipping or you can go to any store to pick up immediately.

I currently have the Netgear NightHawk router. Will this be better than that, and should I get rid of that one?
Yes. It is much better than X6 or X8. I am getting 300+ mbps in all over the places in my house.
