I’ve had an Apple Watch since the first one and probably should have had a screen protector but never liked the look of them. The Insignia hybrid glass screen protector is the first one I’ve given a try and so far I’m happy with it. The biggest thing with others I didn’t like is the fact you could tell they were on or they were the plastic type which I hate. The curved glass with the black border makes it appear like it’s the regular screen of the Apple Watch. This is as long you’re able to get the bubbles out, it’s a bit of a challenge but can be done with some persistence. When I get a new watch I use my old one for work and with that I’ve messed up the screens on my work ones with scratches or from chemicals I use sometimes. Having recently relegated my 45mm to work duty, this will at least not destroy the glass and make it a little easier to sell it when I do. The installation process is very simple as they include a tray with alignment post to hold the Apple Watch so you align it perfectly. They also include a small squeegee to help remove the bubbles. The Insignia hybrid glass screen protector is a great option if you want that seamless look.

The Best Buy essentials wireless charger is a convenient all in one charging solution for your iPhone, AirPods and Apple Watch. The charger comes with a USB-C to USB-C cable and a USB-A to USB-C adapter. You have to supply the wall brick and the Apple Watch cable. The folding design is both convenient and space saving. The maximum charge rate is 10 watts so it doesn’t have fast charging capabilities, but is more than sufficient for overnight charging. The device feels relatively well made and the silicone straps that hold the to pieces together feel strong. The design of the Watch charging part is accommodating enough for the Apple Watch Ultra when flipped up. I have some older products that would charge the smaller models of the Apple Watch but not the ultra due to the design. When unfolded the device is just a little longer than a Pro Max size iPhone. If you want an inexpensive charging solution when traveling, the Best Buy essentials charger is a solid option thats both portable and lightweight.

Get everyday storage and backup for your precious photos, videos, music, and daily files with the WD easystore portable drive. Lightweight, flash-based durability and fast access to quickly expand storage and help keep your important files safe on the go.
Posted by: Linksys
There’s certain brands that you think of when you think of certain products and when it comes to storage drives Western Digital is one. It’s a brand I know I can count on when I need any kind of storage solution. The Easystore is a small and very lightweight portable drive that’s easy to take with you on the go. Installation is a simple and quick plug and play operation. The device supports USB 3.0 and is backwards compatible with 2.0 devices. Western Digital says the device is made up of 50 percent recycled material. In a time where e-waste is becoming more of a problem, it’s nice to see a company trying to reduce their impact on the planet. My only knock would be I would have liked to of seen them use a USB-C cable instead of the USB-B. The biggest reason is if you forget the cable it will be harder to find someone that has one that you could use compared with USB-C. Having a backup drive for important documents,pics or anything is becoming more and more important with the digital age. Though you can use the cloud, if you’re like me, I would rather have my own backup that only I can access and the Easystore is a great inexpensive option.

Nice budget friendly watch band
on November 17, 2023
Posted by: Linksys
The Insignia nylon watch band is an inexpensive and comfortable option for your Apple Watch. I like to change out my watch bands on a regular basis and the nylon style is what I like to use when working out or in the summer. The breathability of nylon just makes it much more comfortable when you’re sweating. The Insignia watch band is slightly slimmer than the one that comes with the Apple Watch. This is more pronounced at the top where it fits into the Apple Watch as instead of contouring out it’s straight. This gives the illusion that it’s much slimmer but it’s not. This would be my one criticism of the band when on the bigger watches, if using it with a smaller model it won’t be as noticeable. For the price the band feels well made and makes a great back up band. The hardware is plastic but feels substantial and that it will hold up. The Insignia nylon band is a nice alternative to the more expensive OEM bands. If you’re on a budget or just need a back watch band the Insignia brand gives you just that.

I was first introduced to Sennheiser when I got a pair of their earbuds and those are some of my favorite. The Accentum headphones continue that with great sound quality and features for the price. Unboxing you get the headphones and a USB cable, no carrying case or bag. The headphones have a solid feel and the ear cups and headband are very soft and cushy. If you’re someone with a small to average size head the headphones will be comfortable for you. If you have a large or an x large head they probably won’t be.
Setup is simple and straightforward like most Bluetooth devices and having one of the latest Bluetooth versions 5.2, you’ll get a strong stable connection. This is especially noticeable when using them to watch videos as you’ll not have to deal with out of sync audio. The app is minimal but allows for a decent amount of customization with different or custom eq settings, ANC control and more. Sound quality, they have a well balanced sound and clarity and deliver bass with depth without being boomy. My one knock would be they don’t come with a carrying case or bag, it would have been nice even if they had to charge a little more. The Sennheiser Accentum are well balanced headphones for people with small to medium heads.

Receive gorgeous close-up photos of your birds whenever they visit! Bird Buddy is an AI-powered camera feeder that attracts local birds, capturing intimate photos and videos while they feed. The user-friendly companion app notifies you of new visitors with photo postcards, identifies the species, and offers fun facts about that species to enrich your understanding of your feathered friends. Plus, the detachable solar roof harnesses the power of the sun for longer photoshoots with your wildlife.
Posted by: Linksys
Having two cats that love to watch birds and squirrels, having another bird feeder was a no brainer! Having a bird feeder that can tell you all sorts of info about those birds, take pics and videos, now that’s cool! The Bird Buddy is just that, a modern bird feeder that can entertain your cats and educate you! Setting up the Bird Buddy is straightforward and simple, charge the camera before installing it, pick a location and you’re up and running. The solar panel is only on one side of the roof, but you can remove it and put it on the other side. The feeder comes with a hanger, universal pole mount and a seed scoop.
The camera is only 720p unless you sign up for the Pro version which unlocks 1080p and other features for either $2.99 a month or $29.99 for a year. I usually don’t like subscriptions but don’t feel like $30 a year is a bad deal for what you get. Even at the standard 720p the camera is very clear. One nice feature is at night the camera goes to sleep to save battery. Even if you put this in an area without good sunlight, the camera is easy to remove to charge inside. The AI camera and the ability to show all sorts of information about the different types of birds is really cool and honestly makes it worth it alone. We’ve had a couple of bird feeders for a couple of years for the cats, we now have a bird feeder for the humans! If you’re a bird lover and want to watch and learn about the birds who visit, the Bird Buddy is worth the money and more!

Great glass screen protector
on November 1, 2023
Posted by: Linksys
As expensive as phones have become, a glass screen protector is cheap insurance to keep your device’s glass scratch free. The Insignia Anti reflective glass screen protector is a great option that’s easy to install. Along with two glass screen protectors, you get two alcohol wipes, two dry wipes, two polishing style cloths, dust stickers and a plastic installation guide. When installing the screen protector, the plastic guide insures you screen protector is perfectly straight and not crooked. If you use a bulky case that has protector around the edge, the Insignia glass screen protector will still work. The anti reflective coating is nice especially when you’re out in bright sunlight. Insignia has long been known as a brand you can count on for a quality product at a reasonable price and their glass screen protector is another example of this. The Insignia glass screen protector will protect your phone and the anti reflective coating will make it easier to see in sunlight, all without adding a lot of bulk to your phone.

Cool Switch/phone grip
on October 31, 2023
Posted by: Linksys
The Proteus 3-in-1 Joy-Con grip makes gaming on your Switch or cell phone like console gaming. I’m mostly a console gamer with some occasional pc gaming from time to time. So, no matter what I’m gaming on, I prefer the feel of using a controller. When I use my switch on my tv I can use the accessory grip that comes with it and now with the Joy-Con I can when I’m not. When using it with a phone it has a middle support that’s adjustable for different size phones. The back of the grips have a nice texture that gives you a nice secure grip while holding on to it.
When using the Proteus 3-in-1 Joy-Con grip on your Switch it just makes gaming a more pleasant experience especially if you have bigger hands because of how thin the Switch is. When using it with your phone, the right grip has a removable back to run a charging cable through the back of it. If you want the console experience while playing on a Switch or your phone, the Proteus 3-in-1 Joy-Con grip gives you just that at an affordable price.

Photo editing made easy
on October 26, 2023
Posted by: Linksys
It’s been a little while since I’ve used Adobe Photoshop and Elements truly makes editing easy. I can’t remember that last time I used photoshop, but I do remember it being much more complicated than photoshop elements. Maybe I just have more experience with editing in general now so maybe it comes to me a little easier now, but elements truly makes it easy if you’re a novice. The UI is simple and straightforward which definitely lends to the ease of finding what you’re looking for.
When editing a photo, adobe makes it easy with three quick tabs to choose from, quick,guided and advanced. The first two is definitely what makes this software so easy, especially for someone that is new to photo editing. You have so many options to quickly and easily edit your photos and can add so many different effects. One of the features I was surprised about the most was the AI feature, it just makes it fun and interesting to let the AI do the work. If you’re just getting into photography, Adobe Photoshop Elements takes the complexity out of photo editing and truly makes it easy.

USB-C to Ethernet adapter
on October 22, 2023
Posted by: Linksys
The Best Buy essentials USB-C to Ethernet adapter is a convenient little dongle to have when WiFi isn’t good. When I visit my brother they don’t have the best WiFi coverage throughout their house but have Ethernet ports in every room so this will make life a little easier. Like a lot of things everything is getting thinner and thinner so most laptops don’t have Ethernet ports anymore, which 99% of the time isn’t a problem. But, for that 1% of time it can be a hassle when you need good internet speed.
With speeds up 1 Gbps this will allow you to take advantage of the latest and greatest home internet speeds. Testing on my iPad I was able to get 440Mbps from my middle floor router in my mesh system. This isn’t the main nodule in my mess system so I’m happy with the speed. If you don’t have good WiFi coverage and you can’t use your phone as a hotspot, this little Ethernet dongle is an inexpensive way to solve your problem. It will deliver the speed and reliability of a wired connection.

Bring the power of Google directly to your fingertips with the Google Pixel. A large 32GB of storage keep data secure, while unlimited cloud storage transfers data as needed, and it's completely automatic. The large 5-inch screen is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 4 to ensure the Google Pixel remains scratch-free.

5 out of 5Phenomenal!

from Richmond,VA
Googles first attempt at their own phone (software/ hardware developed by Google) is a solid homerun, even though it has a few shortcomings!
The hardware; at least to me is absolutely beautiful and on par with any of the top cellphone manufacturers out there. The software; is so smooth and buttery, there literally is no lag! It reminds me of iOS in the early days. The screen at 5 inches is a sweet spot, though I love bigger screens, it's a nice comprise especially if you want a big screen but dont have big hands.
If you are a died in the wool Android person, this phone is an excellent choice when considering a new phone. The price could be a shortcoming for some, and the lack of headphones baffles me especially when you're competing with the big manufacturers. 32 gb may not seem like a lot of storage these days, but Google gives you unlimited photo and video cloud storage for all taken on the Pixel.
Google should be very proud of this phone and anyone should put it on their short list when searching for a phone.

I understand and know there has been Nexus devices for years that run stock android. But all reports from plenty of sources ( The Verge, Andriod Central, Droid Life and so on) have indicated that the Pixel is the FIRST phone where Google designed the hardware and software to work together like Apple does with the iPhone. Even though HTC made the hardware.

Introducing wireless AirPods. Just take them out and they're ready to use with all your Apple devices¹. Put them in your ears and they connect instantly. Speak into them and your voice sounds clear. Simplicity and technology, together like never before. The result is completely magical.

I got my first Bluetooth headphones 2 years ago with the Beats solo2 headset. As much as I liked them having the wire between the two could still be a pain at times depending on what you're doing. The new AirPods are phenomenal from the sound quality, ease of use and just the general quality. These are my new go to headphones, I love the fact I can just use one at a time if I want and the fact the case is a battery also so it charges them when you place them in the case. Worth every cent!

Until Apple fixes the issue with these disconnecting from calls while using a 6s and 6s plus avoid these. I'm on my second pair and they both would randomly disconnect while talking.

1080p or 720p ?
can u tell the differince
No, too me I cant tell the difference and I have watched bluray on both 720p and 1080p. Maybe if you had both sets sitting next to each other running the same bluray you could but. Especially on a tv 46inches or smaller to me 1080p is not worth the extra money.
