Easy setup and strong connection!
on December 7, 2016
Posted by: JamexRZ
Large box! It was easy to setup using the Google wifi app (make sure you download it before!). I setup the 3 points in 3 areas of my house. One on the living room (main one connected to my comcast modem), the 2nd on a main hallway that connects to my rooms and the 3rd one on the room the farthest from the main one. I get full solid bars on all my devices connected! Some pros and cons for ease TLDR:
PROS:
+Very sleek looking, the light can be dimmed on each point.
+Easy to setup, recognized my comcast modem right away.
+Each point has an ethernet port so you can connect devices to them via wire (I have my PS4 and PC on a couple of them, since the PS4's wifi sucks).
+You can manage all your network and points easily with the Google wifi app, even remotely as long as you have data on your phone or tablet (can be ios or android).
+You can setup family hours and turn off the internet, or limit it (in example, dinner time, kids homework time etc).
CONS:
-Not IPv6 capable. I have emailed Google about them enabling this, will update when they response, but being 2016 should be a standard.
-Lacks some power options for power users, like setting a DMZ etc (same, I have emailed Google about this).
-I wish it had a web interface, to be honest I have not explored this much, but if it may be a feature, its very hidden as there is no mention of it anywhere.

Pros:
All in one
Quick charge and lasting battery
It can be used in the shower
The detail trimmer is perfect for sharp, well defined lines
The turbo speed makes it easy to use even on thick hair

The shaving tool's head is fixed which makes it a little harder to get to certain places

Fast and beautiful phone
on October 20, 2016
Posted by: JamexRZ
The packaging is neat, it includes actually two type c usb 3.0 cables and one adapter (so you can transfer all your old phone settings and data connecting the two phones). I was able to setup the phone within less than 10 minutes of receiving it that way (older android phone to this one, I read you could also transfer from an iphone to this one downloading an ios app from google for this purpose).
The phone is thin and sleek, a metal unibody and the glass camera cover portion didn't bother me as much as I thought. I must say this is the most quick and snappy android phone I ever used. No classic android lag at all. Its very polished and I'm loving the new Pixel launcher. The screen is gorgeous and I got zero defects.
By the way, for anyone wondering, the phone is indeed carrier unlocked. Its a Verizon one, but you can pop in any sim card and it will work. I tried a tmobile one and all worked fine, so If you travel a lot like me, you can pop in a sim card of whatever country you are in (granted it supports the bands in such country).
I'll point some pros and cons.
Pros:
-Perfect size, not as humongous as my previous nexus 6 but large enough to be considered a phablet.
-Gorgeous quad hd screen.
-Superfast charging with the included charger.
-So far have been installing and restoring several apps and I have not gone down less than 50% battery, so battery life is very good.
-Great call quality, tried a couple of phone calls and was crisp clear.
-Finally a Google phone with a notification light! (none on my nexus 6).
-It has a earphone plug! (I'm glad they didn't follow apple on this).
-SIM unlocked.
Cons:
-No stereo front facing speakers, this should be the norm these days.
-Average visibility on sunlight (its an super amoled screen, so all of them suffer this).
-No SD card slot.

Fast and stable router
on October 20, 2016
Posted by: JamexRZ
Router came in a neat packaging using foam to protect it and the antennas (4 in total). Setup was a breeze, the interface wizard is very simple and auto detected my cable modem connection quickly (you can also access a more detailed interface to fiddle with settings like NAT, Lan settings etc) and I was up an running within 5 minutes. I'll point pros and cons I noticed.
Pros:
-Easy setup
-Fast and strong connection (I was able to get full bars from my living room where the router is at to my bedroom, whereas other routers would not).
-Reliable, I have not lost any connections since installed, be it wireless or lan cable.
-The status leds are not glaringly bright, and you can disable them if you wish.
-Was able to max out my cable modem connection speed, sometimes even exceeding it more than I was provisioned for!
Cons:
-Big, make sure you have a good dedicated space for the router.
-Power brick is big too, make sure you have good space if you are using an extension or surge protector as I had to fiddle with mine. I guess with great power, comes bigger sizes too.

Showed it to my friends in all it's HDR glory, looks amazing! The reds of the planet and the detail on the suits, o my god! To people that say 4k Netflix is ok, with all the compression they use its just a little better than 1080p, but a reak 4k disc will blow you away!

Channel your inner gamer with the Xbox One S. An impressively sleek reduction in size belies the fact it supports HDR visuals and impressive 4K resolution for outstanding detail in the latest games. Bluetooth technology bundled with the Xbox wireless controller means you can use this device on both your Xbox One S and your Windows 10 PC.

Great card!
on July 23, 2016
Posted by: JamexRZ
Verified Purchase:Yes
Really good upgrade from a radeon 7970 ghz. Card is silent when on desktop (it turns off the fans automatically) and then its super silent when in gaming (compared to my 7970 that was a leaf blower). It never goes higher than 72 C even when overclocked. Right out of the box it boosts to 2.0 ghz by itself at moments (nvidias boost 3.0 at work) and I was able to overclock to 100 mhz core offset and 400 mhz mem offset without a sweat (stock volts). Card is great at 1080p and 1440p. 4K is around 30 fps - 40 fps. I guess for 4k you need another one on SLI, or a gtx 1080. I'm thinking of using evga's step up program and getting a 1080 when its on stock.
I just wish best buy would keep up with their inventory system for stores. It said it was out of stock on all the stores nearby and I go to my store planning on getting a gtx 970 and there it was, one evga 1070 and no mention on the website it was in stock at that store. Sigh.

Great tv for the price. Deep, dark blacks. On game mode, lag is nonexistent. If you look at reviews for the 6300 (which is the same tv, sans for the bluetooth), is around 19 ms, so gaming is excellent too!

Grey blacks, and not really full UHD
on June 26, 2016
Posted by: JamexRZ
Verified Purchase:Yes
Its a nice tv, and the OS is oustanding (webOS). However I had to return it due being an IPS panel, the blacks are never black. They are milkish-greyish blacks, no matter how I calibrated. Also, on this model, LG is using a RGBW pixel arrangement. If you do a little research, you will see this reduces the effective resolution by 25%, making it not really 4k UHD. Got a Samsung UN55KU6290 and could not be happier, deep blacks!

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).

Experience high-quality audio with this Arctis Pro + GameDAC gaming headset system. An Arctis ClearCast microphone delivers background cancellation and voice clarity for use with multiplayer co-op games, while the ski goggle suspension headband allows for a comfortable fit. With premium Hi-Res speakers and a dedicated DAC and headphone amp, this Arctis Pro + GameDAC gaming headset system offers dynamic sound quality through your desktop or laptop.
 

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.

Has anyone watched a football game on this topic? Wondering how it handles motion blur. Thank you

I watch soccer games, and its great. I has an special "sports" mode (although to much saturation on color, but you can tune it). Didn't notice any motion blur at all.
