Compact, Lightweight and great printouts!
on September 24, 2020
Posted by: TechTux
from San Antonio, TX, USA
I have always missed the days of old where I could print out my pictures instantly. However with this product not only am I able to quickly print out the pictures I just took, they come out in great quality! I love how light weight this product is along with it using a rechargeable battery. The setup was easy and the print outs came quick. Unfortunately the cost of the photo paper is very high however I am sure it will decrease in prices once this is out for a while. Overall this is a great product that is made well and enjoyable to use!

Fast Charge, Compact, Lightweight
on July 20, 2020
Posted by: TechTux
from San Antonio, TX, USA
I never seem to have enough connectors and with the limit of only the one at the bottom of my phone I found myself always having to chose what to plug in. I am so thankful Bolkin made a product like this, it has made my life a ton easier! I am no longer having to worry about which device to plug into my phone with this pass-through option. The charging is very fast, even when I have a speaker or another component connected using the USB-C port. Its great to be able to connect speakers to it. I also found I was able to use my flash drive to act as an additional storage. However it may have been a one-off and do not recommend trying it because it was not intended for that use.
Overall its a great product and feel justified for the price point (as of July 2020). With it being compact and Lightweight I do not mind carrying it with me wherever I go!

Bright, Easy Setup, Great App
on December 25, 2019
Posted by: TechTux
from San Antonio, TX, USA
I have fallen in love with the Philips Hue lights. I find myself continually adding to my already large expansion of lights. This Hue Play is great for syncing them all up and play along with the movies / shows. The applications was easy to use / setup with a great tutorial walk-through. I do recommend at least 2 lights this way there is some cycle when playing along with a movie. Everything looked great and bright. Highly recommended

Average Clock, Bright Light, Too Costly
on December 9, 2019
Posted by: TechTux
from San Antonio, TX, USA
For some time now I have had difficulty sleeping so decided to try this SmartSleep Therapy Lamp by Philips. I honestly feel it is overpriced for the features it has and the application is pretty basic. The sound is average along with the clock and alarm features. However I was impressed by the light and method it wakes you up. I recommend trying the "RelaxBrethe" function on the application. Overall it is a nice aid when trying to sleep however no way justifies the price.

lightweight, long battery life, responsive
on October 30, 2019
Posted by: TechTux
from San Antonio, TX, USA
I was looking for a reliable mouse that was wireless and long lasting. I was happy to see this one not only was made well, has a long battery life, it also if very responsive when moving. It feels comfortable for large hands and allows for multiple device connections. I do wish there was a place to hold onto the dongle within the mouse itself. Otherwise if lost could always connect via Bluetooth. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a good reliable mouse!

Great Battery Life and Responsive
on October 30, 2019
Posted by: TechTux
from San Antonio, TX, USA
I was in the market for a wireless keyboard that could be used for my second computer. I needed one that was compact in size to fit my small work area. I really enjoy this keyboard and the illumination is a nice touch! I especially like how you can sync with multiple devices and switch by ease of a button. The batter life is great however do wish there was faster charge rate. One negative is there is not a place for the dongle on the keyboard itself so be sure to place it somewhere safe. Otherwise it is Bluetooth so you can go through that route as an alternative.

Perfect Little Adapter
on October 15, 2019
Posted by: TechTux
from San Antonio, TX, USA
I have always been a fan of Platinum products due to the level of quality and care they put into it. I was in need of a simple adapter to convert my USB-C into a USB for some legacy equipment. I had some cheap ones in the past that I always ran into problems where I would randomly loose connection on slightest movement. I decided to spend a little more and get the Platinum on which I am so glad I did. This adapter provide a perfect snug fit, no issues of connection drops however it is very small so try not to loose it! I do find it funny how they cram so much reading material in the small package. When I say cram I am not joking, the reading material is literally folding into 4 ways then thrown into the box. Overall I recommend this product !

I have always been a fan of Platinum products due to the care and quality they put into their products. When I discovered I was in need of an extra wall charger I decided to try out this one. I am extremely impressed with how fast it charges and the length of the power cable. The power cable is of high quality 8 FT long with the wall charger allowing 2 USB ports and LED power indicator. This is all around the perfect companion when traveling and needing a charger. I highly recommend this product !

Throw away your extra remotes in favor of the Logitech Harmony 665 remote control. This functional remote works with a range of devices, from basic cable to Apple TV, and can combine up to 10 remotes in one versatile unit. This Logitech Harmony 665 remote control offers one-button setup for easy incorporation with your entertainment system.
 

I don't see this model (Harmony 665) listed anywhere but at Best Buy. Is this a special version of the 650 just for Best Buy? Or is it an old discontinued model?

Hi Jim,

You may have been a little early, as I see it now listed on the Bestbuy.com website -

will this stream net flix and amazon? this is probably a stupid question, but I need help.

Its ok , do not feel silly asking as I am sure there are others out there with the same question. Yes it will stream both and the quality is just as good as Roku however the Netflix version on Amazon TV/Firestick will not show the actually video quality in the status during play. I am always checking to make sure Netflix is streaming the show at 720p or 1080p as it can change during play and that was a little disappointing when I discovered I couldn't on Amazon TV/Firestick
