What an awesome laptop!!
on March 8, 2024
Posted by: Zeppelin33
What an amazing piece of electronics!! Arrived safely, well packaged. Set up was simple.
This laptop is the fastest I've ever seen. Although I'm an older gamer nowadays, I'm also using this to run Photoshop and Lightroom for editing photos and it's just spectacular. Faster processing than my home PC and having it mobile like this is just awesome. I'm actually flying across the country today and will be in Hawaii with it tomorrow. This will come in handy for the trip and to get my, hopefully, amazing photos processed during my vacation instead of afterwards.
I've loaded MS Flight Simulator on it so far and it's breathtakenly fast with the graphics pretty much maxed out. So excited to be able to play the latest games again in all their glory.
The lighted RGB keyboard is really cool along with all the other lights underneath it. Looks amazing in the dark. The keyboard being full size along with a number pad in a laptop is fantastic.
I would highly recommend this to anyone that needs some serious horsepower in a lightweight, beautifully designed laptop.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Incredible drone for such a small package
on December 12, 2023
Posted by: Zeppelin33
This is awesome. Can't wait for some better weather and longer daylight to get some serious time in with this. This is my 2nd DJI drone. My first one was the Phantom 3 and I ended up being scared to death to fly the thing around. It was so big and I just didn't trust myself to either lose it somewhere in the water or somehow destroy it or get in trouble with it.
This one is so much smaller and compact. Technology has improved a lot and I really hope this will get me over the fear of flying it. So far so good. It's really steady, even with moderate winds. I haven't dared try it with heavy winds yet and we've had a lot of that here lately so I haven't been able to get the time in on this yet.
The video quality at 4k is really good. I've done a lot of practicing in the house with it and the object detection has been flawless with it. I can't even reach up and grab it out of the air. It sees my hand as an object and jumps out of the way.
The built in screen on the controller is really what sold me on this. It's so nice to not have to attach a phone, open an app, get it connected, etc. Just to fly it. This is instant gratification. You turn it on and it's ready to go. The screen is really high resolution and looks fantastic.
The battery life is pretty much as rated - about 35 minutes and that this set came with 3 batteries is just awesome. I'm a photographer on the side (mostly wildlife) so I know I won't be chasing wildlife with this but when I want to stop and do something with the drone, I can be up and running it in about a minute.
The carrying case it came with is pretty small so I ordered a larger one to keep everything safe and easier to remove.
This is really an incredible drone and I just can't wait to really get comfortable with it and put it to some serious use. Just need to build up my own confidence. I can't think of a better drone to recommend.
This is so much fun!!

Amazing technology here
on November 6, 2023
Posted by: Zeppelin33
This is some serious technology. I can't believe how well this works and that it can actually make it's way back to the base, empty itself and then continue on cleaning the house. Truly incredible. I have had an iRobot before (maybe 6 years ago or so) and it's like night and day to how well this J9+ works.
Setup was simple and straightforward. I was able to download the app on to mine and my wife's phone and it can be run from either phone. So cool that either one of us can fire this up and clean the house from wherever we currently are. I vacuumed the living room from work, 25 miles away yesterday. The app is easy to use and understand.
I love how it learns the house as it goes. We haven't had it long enough to learn the whole house but it's well on it's way. My last iRobot kinda took off on it's own and eventually made it's way around the whole place. This one methodically goes back and forth and obviously is missing nothing.
We have 5 cats, and there are toys all over the floor. The amount of cat hair that is around the house is incredible and the amount this picks up is astounding. We've begun to just trust it and run it when we're not home. iRobot actually guarantees a free replacement if it accidently goes over and picks up a pet mess. Luckliy we don't have an issue with that here but it's a nice guarantee in case it ever happens.
The sound of it emptying it's load in the the base (which actually has a small standard looking bag inside) is pretty loud and makes the entire cat population in the house scatter. But it doesn't take long before it's off to continue it's job. While actually vacuuming, the sound is not very loud at all compared to standard vacuums that make all the cats run and hide. None of the cats ride around on it yet but 2 of our 5 have shown possible future interest in it. I can only hope.
We do have mostly hardwood floors with a couple area rugs in the living room and hallway. It has no problem moving off the wood to the carpet and back without skipping a beat.
Highly recommend this and have been talking it up at work to all my coworkers.

Definitely the best PC I've ever had
on October 9, 2023
Posted by: Zeppelin33
Super fast PC with plenty of storage.
Setup was easy as it typically is with any Windows based computers. No stumbles along the way. Pretty much had it up and running with all Windows updates completed in less than an hour.
32 gigs of ram right out of the gate is key. I do a lot of photo editing with Photoshop and Lightroom as well as game on my PCs so the more ram the better. I doesn’t look like there are additional slots for more though so it would have to be replaced to upgrade. Maybe somewhere down the line but this is great to start off with. And a 1 tb hardrive.
A very nice video card comes with this – the Nvdia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti. I was previously using the 3060 Ti so it’s a bit of an upgrade but not huge.
I love the RGB lighting accents. I chose solid blue for the time being but there are a lot of different options and patterns besides changing the colors.
The fans are really quiet and the air hole on the bottom is a nice touch. Seems the cooling is set up perfect for this machine to keep the air flowing from the front and bottom and then out the back.
This has a wifi antenna that connects with 2 wires in the back. This may work out great as it seems that it would have a bit more reach this way and I have this PC about as far away from our router as I can in this house. Since I keep my PC under the desk, the extra reach of the antenna allows me to mount it on top of the desk. No disconnects yet over the several days I’ve been using this and I have with other laptops and PCs in this room. I know I should just get an extender but if this stays connected all the time, it won’t be necessary.
Another nice add is the little lever on the left hand side that drops down to hang a set of headphones on – very handy.
Gaming performance is fantastic. High frame rates with the graphics cranked most of the way up. I was able to run Flight Simulator at 4k resolution with almost everything on Ultra. Very impressed.
This one should last a long time - Love this!!

Great quality - Easy setup
on September 27, 2023
Posted by: Zeppelin33
Perfect addition to my 2 indoor Arlo cameras.
I've had a couple indoor cameras for a few years and was hoping this would integrate with them even though this one is much newer. It went flawlessly but I did have to update the app I was using. Quickly added the new camera and now I can control all 3 together on the same app. Set up was fast and easy. So happy about that.
Love the spotlight on it. Definitely bright enough to light up the area when it detects something. I'll be using this outdoors to protect our back deck and watch the critters that come visit us at night. Much better video quality than the typical trail cam. Seems pretty good so far at not noticing leaves blowing around but saw a coyote and our regular possum friend stop by the other night.
The weather hasn't been cooperative enough here lately for me to get outside and permanently mount it but it looks very easy to do so and I'm looking forward to getting that done.
Very happy with this so far and extra happy that 1 app controls all my Arlo cameras.
I'll be picking up another of these soon to keep an eye on our front yard as well.

Perfect indoor grilling!!
on September 4, 2023
Posted by: Zeppelin33
This will be fantastic for grilling in the winter or on rainy days. Getting great results indoors so far.
We've cooked burgers flawlessly, Pretty much smoke free. An amazing piece of equipment.
Simple setup, simple clean up.It claims they are dishwasher safe but easier for us to just clean them in the sink. This will definitely become one of our highest used appliances.
Big enough to cook 6 small burgers at a time with room to flip or 4 larger burgers.Grease runs down into a little catch. No splatter while flipping and no mess spreading outside the area of the grille itself. I was worried that grease would end up all over the counter but there was nothing to wipe up after a few meals. Everything styed right on the grille.
Can't wait to do some breakfasts on the griddle part of it. It will do eggs, pancakes, sausage, etc.
Fantastic all in 1 appliance that doesn't take up a lot of room and easily stores away when not in use.
Highly recommended

The ultimate mouse pad / mat
on June 13, 2023
Posted by: Zeppelin33
Ingenious idea. I had a glass desk once that was just a fantastic surface for the mouse I had at the time.
Regular mousepads irritate me and are just too small for me so I’ve been using my current wooden desk with no pad for the past few years. The desk is not as smooth as I'd like but the open surface was something I was too used to.
The minute I placed this on my desk, not only does it just look cool with it’s rounded edges, it’s the absolute perfect size for my wandering mouse hand. It is more comfortable than my old glass desk, and the black color really accentuates my current desk. It just feels fantastic. Movements are so smooth and accurate, I can’t recommend this enough to someone bothered by standard mousepads.
I’m not the gamer I used to be but I can imagine this would be the ultimate surface for high paced gaming. It’s just so smooth.
These are a little pricy but in my opinion, are worth every cent. It cleans easily and I see no reason to not be using this for the rest of my life. This really is the ultimate mouse pad / mat.
I see no way that this could be improved.

Great trimmers but I'm gonna need some practice..
on March 6, 2023
Posted by: Zeppelin33
I'm gonna need a little practice with this. LOL. I can tell it's gonna be really nice but I nicked myself on it's first use but I have no doubt whatsoever that it was my own fault. Just really nervous about where I put things with sharp blades. The little built in flashlight is a nice touch when reaching for those hard to reach spots no matter how bright the light is in the shower.
Only down side I've noticed is the power button is right where I hold it and is very sensitive so I turned it off inadvertently several times. Just gotta retrain myself on how to hold this particular trimmer.
Love the charger for this as it just sits in the cradle. No need to plug anything into the actual trimmer. Seems to hold a charge for quite a while.
The nose trimmer works fantastic. As I get older, ear and nose hair is becoming more apparent and this just zipped everything right off in seconds. Very effective. Has a typical charger cord that plugs into the bottom of it. USB-C like pretty much everything else these days.
Over time, I'm sure I'll really love this. I just need to be more careful so I don't nick myself.

Fantastic laptop - Won't disappoint
on February 14, 2023
Posted by: Zeppelin33
Super cool looking, the unboxing of it alone was nice. Alienware has always just screamed high quality and this is no exception. Super fast initial set up and after a few updates from Windows it was ready to go.
My main game currently is Microsoft Flight Simulator and this runs it very well with the 2nd highest settings. With it only coming with 16 gigs of ram, an upgrade is in order. Looks like easy access to the slots to turn this into even more of a power horse.
Battery life is average when not gaming but if you really want to game with this, you should be plugging it in anyway. I got about an hour or so before it was showing low battery life while flying around in a helicopter with Flight Sim and the fan was screaming. Thought I was hearing a heavy rainstorm outside.
This is quite a heavy laptop, probably the heaviest laptop I’ve ever had. Comes in at 7.3 pounds. And the power supply brick is quite large as well.
Love the RGB keyboard and the ability to change the logo colors on the front and back. And what they call the Stadium, which is a cool oval ring on the back that runs the length of the laptop. All of it is RGB so it’s fun to try new colors and effects.
Ran 3DMark Timespy on my older desktop that’s pretty powerful in itself and this compares quite nicely. While the graphics didn’t score as high, the CPU test blew my Intel I-7 9700 out of the water. Well done AMD
Surprised it only has 1 USB-C port but I can make dues with it. But it does have 3 USB-A ports, an audio out port, an HDMI out, and a wired Ethernet port if you want it hardwired.
The keyboard doesn’t have a numeric keypad so numbers are a bit of an issue if you’re used to and proficient using a numeric keypad on a typical keyboard. Other than that, it’s comfortable to type on and I love the color changeability. Only downside is only the main letters / numbers light up, so none of the secondary commands on the keys are visible in the dark.
One annoyance was Bitlocker came up after an Alienware update – huge pain in the butt. Never even heard of it before until I got locked out on startup. Was easier once I figured out what was going on and how to get my authentication code. Just glad I wasn’t in a rush to use when this popped up.
Overall, this is a great laptop. Alienware hits a home run with this one.
Highly recommended

The Turtle Beach VelocityOne Flightstick for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One & Windows 10 & 11 PCs equips you with immersive, accurate controls for navigating air and space flight simulation & combat games on Xbox and PC. High resolution non-contact sensors provide precise response and extended longevity to the main stick controls, while throttle and flap levers control main engine power and make for quick adjustment of secondary control surfaces. Plus, the levers can be customized with swappable throttle heads to suit the aircraft you are flying. Precision detents at the minimum and maximum positions allow activation of full reverse thrust at minimum, and afterburner, boost or Take Off/Go Around thrust at maximum. An ultra-precise nano trim wheel allows for fine tuning of attitude, and an analog POV hat allows freelook in cockpit views or strafe thrusters in space simulation games. An OLED Flight Management Display makes for easy adjustments to control profiles, trim wheel input mode, rudder lock and more. Navigate the FMD using an intuitive rotary dial with click at the base of the stick to configure, and update product performance in real-time with all information stored in on-board memory. 27 programmable buttons, stick mounted buttons, dual throttle lever detents and 8 programmable base buttons equip you with an arsenal of adjustable controls to your most critical simulation functions. Pilot fighter jets or airliners thanks to an ambidextrous right and left-handed design with a reversible wrist rest, and programmable base buttons allow the entire setup to be configured for right, or left-handed controls. Take customization a step further and adjust the color, brightness and response of multiple RGB LED zones. Familiar Xbox controls allow for easy console operation, and you can switch input mode to PC to play across a wide range of simulation titles.

This is a lot of fun
on December 29, 2022
Posted by: Zeppelin33
This adds a whole new dimension to Flight Simulator for me. I haven’t had a flight stick in many years. So I can’t really compare it to anything else that’s out there. I’ve been using the keyboard and a game pad since the new Flight Sim came out and was happy enough with it. I didn’t realize what a huge difference this Flight Stick would make.
Set up was pretty easy. The quick start guide was a little vague on how to change it from Xbox to PC (it defaults to Xbox) so it took a while for me to figure that out. Once I had it set to PC, it self installed and Windows recognized it immediately for exactly what it was.
I love the little OLED screen on top of it and all the blue and yellow lights on the stick itself. Looks really cool.
Flight Sim recognized it the first time I ran the game with the stick plugged in. I didn’t need to do anything in the game to get up and running.
The stick is very responsive and precise. The throttle/ flap levers are both firm and steady. With 27 customizable buttons, there’s a lot you can do with it but since the game pretty much detected and set it up automatically, I haven’t needed to customize anything yet.
I’m, admittedly, not an avid flight sim guy. I bought Microsoft Flight Simulation just because it looked so cool and I have a high enough end PC to display the graphics almost maxed out. I do know that I will now be spending a lot more time with this game, and maybe others just because of the flightstick.
Really looking forward to using this flight stick more and more and maybe even try out a few other flight games now.
Highly recommended. I’m really enjoying it
