Great printer, cheap ink tons of it! Some tips.
on March 20, 2019
Posted by: JamexRZ
from Salt Lake City, UT
Great printer. It takes away the expensive out of printer ink. Instead of replacing cartridges all the time (which are more expensive) you just buy ink bottles and fill up the tanks in the printer, and the prices of the ink bottles are way cheaper!
The print quality and speed is great. I printed around 50 pages last night and I thought it may have gone down, but after looking at the tanks (are see through) it barely used any ink! I'm loving it!
Now some pros and cons:
Pros:
+ Tons of ink! It even comes with 3 huge black ink bottles, these may last me a year or more! Also one for each of the 3 colors needed for color printing.
+ Fast and great quality. A little noisy, but that can be attenuated, I'll explain later.
+ You can print, copy, scan (and has an auto feeder on the top, so no manually placing page by page, which you could do, but no reason to!), and Fax! Had no problems using my Voip line.
+ Setup to my PC was easy, just followed the instructions, then typed the given url for setup on my broswer and I was printing in a jiffy.

Cons:
- Doesn't have full duplex printing! I think this is a must nowadays, helps save paper, and trees! My older HP printer would do this, print both sides of a page automatically, this one can't.
- It comes with an installation CD?? Who uses optical media anymore? Come on, include an USB drive in the future, like many PC motherboards manufacturers do nowadays.
- No USB cable included for people that want a physical connection.
- Tiny screen and not back-lit!
- Paper feeder ins on the back and open (not a closed casset), so you will get dust in your paper...

Now, onto some issues some people have that can be solved easily with something that Canon haven't put in their manual, shame on them:
*** Noisy printer? Turns off automatically? Doesn't turn back on?***
Well, you can solve that easily. Either download (or check, your programs it may have been installed already) "Canon inkjet print utility" from the Windows app store and check the "printer settings". You can also access them via a web browser. Like entering the setup of a router, you can enter the printer's ip address in the url bar and it will pull the printer's web gui. There you can login (default login is admin and the password would be your printers serial number, you can find it in the back of the printer, and can be changed in here). From this web menu there are many settings, including the power saving ones. You can set the printer to QUIET MODE, will be slower, but quitter. Also, you can set it to AUTO SHUT OFF, AND AUTO TURN ON when a print job is sent. I hope this helps some people. Shame on canon for not providing instructions to this great web gui.

Great wireless charger. Its easy to plug in (comes with its own adapter) and you can charge any device compatible with the Qi standard. I'm currently charging my LG G7 and it does well. Has a small Led light on one side to indicate the status. Highly recommend it to anyone with any Qi enabled device, specially smartphones. Wireless charging will never charge as fast as turbo chargers, however is very convenient and I use it to charge my phone overnight. Just placing it on top and done. No plugging and un plugging mess with cables. Highly recommend it!

Great and strong signal!

from Salt Lake City, UT
Great antenna, its a little larger than the common ones of these type. I liked that it has a signal strength led indicator, that way you can place it where the signal is stronger without guessing. Once plugged into my tv, ran a scan of channels and was able to pick up 70ish. A good thing is to check where your local broadcast signals are coming from (there a few websites that show that) so you can better position it.

Excellent headset. I liked how well constructed they are, to the point that they were a little stiff and felt hard at the beginning, however after a breaking in period, they started to feel softer. The ear lining is of a textured fabric, it allowed my ears to breath and didn't sweat at all after a long gaming session. Sound is great and these have Logitech's excellent Pro G drivers, the same as in the higher wireless ones. Cables were long enough Logitech's software was easy to install and configure. I must say that I'm loving the new DTSX 2.0. Finally good surround audio without feeling like I'm in a reverberating can.
It has RGB (not that I care for, but has it anyways) and has two programmable buttons in the headset you can choose what to assign to them. Also has a mute and volume wheel on the left ear cup. I found the mic was great (its big, 6mm) and flips up and down hiding in the left ear cup discreetly, communication was crystal clear with my friends playing Rainbow six siege. Finally, it can work with a PC with usb or any other thing with the 3.5mm plug (like PS4, phone etc, you just lose the 3D surround features obviously).

Lightweight and snappy
on February 15, 2019
Posted by: JamexRZ
from Salt Lake City, UT
Great laptop, I was surprised how light it is, I could not believe it was in the box it was shipped in due the weight (or lack of!). Its very thin, the screen is almost bezeless and its fast!
It comes with a great amount of RAM and a speedy 4 core 8 threads cpu! The storage is a speedy 512 Gig SSD, making it boot super fast. I'm in love with the IPS screen. I'm not sure if its one of LG's oleds, but if its not, I'm amazed. The blacks are truly blacks and I didn't see any of the classic IPS backlit glow at all. The keyboard is illuminated and very soft while providing great tactile feedback. It took me a little to get used to the numpad being somewhat close to the main part of the keyboard, but in such a limited space, works ok.
The construction is very sturdy and I love the gray metal. I like also that the webcam is on the top, and not bottom of the screen like other laptops, no more showing your nostrils!
The only con I would say is the integrated intel GPU, while great for light workloads, video and productivity, not that good for gaming, but this is not what this laptop is intended for.
I find carrying this laptop everywhere and I have barely used a tablet I have, since the laptop is so thin and lightweight, its just way better. I will highly recommend it to anyone traveling a lot or wanting to make some work/homework on the go. Lastly, the battery life is superb!

Fast and powerful router!
on February 11, 2019
Posted by: JamexRZ
from Salt Lake City, UT
Excellent router. The 8 antennas give it great penetration and range on my home. No need for extenders anymore, at least for my home. If you still wish to use extenders, the router supports Asus's Ai Mesh, which you can use to add additional routers as a mesh for total coverage.
It has great gaming and streaming features, ie. it has adaptive QOS, you can choose what to prioritize, like gaming, streaming, surfing. It also has integrated WTfast network, which chooses the fastest path to your gaming servers automatically, you can configure it per game and per device (ie pc, consoles etc), most of the more known online games are there, like rainbowsix, overwatch, fortnite, etc. Only caveat is the router only gives you a 30 day trial, you have to purchase a subscription from Wtfast after that if you wish.
It has configurable button on the side, you can configure it to boost games, or to switch off the LED lights and the lighted up logo (I use it for that, as can be annoying at night).
Has many features, if you're a tinkerer with settings you will be in heaven, however if you're not technically inclined, it may be too overwhelming.
A few caveats, I could not get it to work with my Pihole raspberry adblocker. No matter what I did to setup the DNS to my Pihole server, it will not block ads. For some reason the router seems to skip the manual DNS settings. Also, it lets you monitor traffic/bandwith used, but does not allow you to configure it to ie block all internet access once certain bandwidth is consumed (good for ISP's that have data caps, com...st I'm talking about you). I had different brand router that allowed me to monitor total bandwidth used within a month and then stop all data once a certain amount configurable by me was used, so no overage charges on data caps.. I hope Asus ads this feature. I tried to use the submit feedback feature, but I got a return email saying that the email inbox was full, I guess they get a lot of requests!!

Good sleep pattern sensor. It can measure heart rate, breathing and also sleep pattern (whether one is in light sleep or REM sleep). The sensor must be installed correctly under the mattress (instructions were a little confusing, but if sleeping alone, must be placed around where the center of your chest rests on the mattress, if 2 people sleeping and both using sensors each, must be placed around the shoulder area to the outside of the bed of each person). Pairing with phone was easy and downloaded the app. App has several settings and also lets you set an alarm, however within around a 30 min period it will evaluate the best time to wake you up (usually whenever you're in light sleep and not deep REM), making it easier to wake up and waking up fresh! I usually have sleep problems (insomnia, and waking up tired), this has helped me a lot, specially with the alarm, I find it I wake up less tired and ready to go. Highly recommend it!

Great dash cam for the price!
on January 9, 2019
Posted by: JamexRZ
from Salt Lake City, UT
I'm loving this camera. It has two modules and records both front and back simultaneously at 1080p 30fps (it can record at 4k, if you only use the front one). Great to record any unfortunate events, like getting in a car crash, and you will have proof of what happened. The camera has an integrated GPS module too, so no need of external modules to plug. You just need to download the GPS software from their website. Oh, and once installed, make sure you have the latest firmware! If not, download it and install it, as it adds parking mode (the camera detects any collision while your car is parked and off, but you must buy a separated connector that will provide 24/7 power, there are ones you can find online that have car battery protection, so it doesn't drain your car battery dead), it also adds support for greater sizes SD cards.
Video quality is great and also supports night mode recording. The length of the cables is adequate and it actually comes with little self adhesive tabs and a prying tool to be able to route the cables nicely through your car's headliners.
The front cam itself is a little big, because of the nice size screen. Just make sure you position it well, before peeling the self adhesive to set it up, unfortunately due the size, it does not have suction cups, you must use self adhesive tabs (included).
Only con, is it doesn't come with an SD card, but they're cheap nowadays, so be prepared to buy one in advance.
In, all, I highly recommend this camera, specially with insurance fraud rampant, and a lot people out there driving recklessly its a must!

Very convenient design, easy way to have everything needed in a small practical design, the app is the best way to not only keep track of your glucose level but also to see the effect different types of food may have on your sugars, also what the impact of your insulin dose is on your levels as well. It has options to track your exercise and weight so it pretty much gives you a very broad picture of your health, as far as the lancets they are super thin which makes the poking much less painful than any other brand I have tried in the past overall i am loving this new device, highly recommend it!

Great shaver, took me a little bit to get used to dry shaving, but it was easy and painless with this shaver! No hair pulling at all. It just took a couple of passes compared to a regular shaver (I have thick facial hair). It did leave my skin a little dry, however I don't blame the shaver, I live in a very dry weather area, so perhaps I should try wet shaving next time, you can do that with this shaver! It can be used either wet or dry!
It comes with a trimmer attachment to, which is great. I like the included qi wireless charger, it may work with other qi enabled devices, I have not tried, but will do so with a phone soon, since the qi is a standard.
You have to clean it after every shave, which is easy just rinsing it. The manual says you have to replace the blades after a long while, so time will tell how long the original one lasts, I just hope the replacements are not that expensive. In all, after using it, no way I'm going back to regular shavers!

Dominate on a different scale with the Razer Huntsman Mini TKL — a 60% gaming keyboard with cutting-edge Razer Clicky Optical Switches. Highly portable and ideal for streamlined setups, it’s time to experience lightning-fast actuation in our most compact form factor yet.
This is ther 2nd-gen Razer Huntsman mini .?
There is no first version. This is the first time Razer gets out a 60% keyboard. You must be confusing it with the Huntsman Tournament edition (that one is a ten keyless version, bigger than this one).

How long is the cable to go from the DAC to the headset? Would i be able to purchase a longer one and still get the high quality sound?
It's long enough, It's about 3 feet, just a tad longer. And, no, so far there are no replacements available from steelseries as its a new product (some guy in the official steelseries reddit asked for a replacement after his cat chewed his cable and they told them, sorry no replacements yet). So better take care of it and hope there are replacements soon.

Add stability to your home network with the Amped Wireless HELIOS-EX Wi-Fi Extender. With DirectLink technology, it avoids signal loss by adding another 5GHz Wi-Fi channel to the standard setup, which it then uses strictly for receiving signal from the source. This Amped Wireless HELIOS-EX Wi-Fi Extender covers an area of up to 12,000 sq. ft. and includes four Gigabit network ports.
Can it use the same SSID as my TWC modem?
No, however you can have the extender kind of clone your SSID close to it. I.E if you SSID on your original router is "ONE" the extender would be "ONE_RE" for the 5ghz and "ONE_RE_2.4" for the 2.4 ghz.

there are conflicting answers as to whether the verizon model will be locked or not. purchase would be at full retail obviously
Phone is sim unlocked. I popped in a tmobile sim card and worked fine. Google search the latest official statement by verizon and google: The verizon phones are sim unlocked, verizon will not get in the way of updates (meaning these phones will get updates from google directly and fast as any other pixel bought directly from google) and if you boot the phone with a verizon sim card, it will download just 3 verizon apps, however they are fully uninstallable.

Does your Best Buy Pixel phone have the Verizon crapware on it?
It doesn't. Per previous nexus phones, it depends on the sim card installed upon first boot. If you have the verizon sim card (it comes preinstalled) it will download just 3 apps, @@however they are uninstallable@@. If you remove the verizon sim card, and use another sim (the phone is sim unlocked by the way) from another carrier and turn it on, it will not download the 3 verizon apps.
