Excellent Audio Quality and Comfort
on October 3, 2016
Posted by: lambda100
I love to listen to music while jogging and working out. I've always used wired earbuds where the wire would get in the way or the earpiece would not stay put from the sweat. Needless to say I was eager to ditch the wires, and I could not wait to see what the Bose Soundsport Pulse Wireless headphones had to offer.
The headphones come packaged very nicely with an outer cover that slides off to reveal a hard black protective box with the headphones inside. In addition to the wireless headphones, the other contents include a usb charging cable, a zippered pouch to store the headphones, a total of three sizes of ear tips (the medium size tips are attached to the headphones, while the large and small tips come in its own plastic packaging), and supporting documents (warranty information, safety instructions, user manual). With three different sizes of ear tips you will hopefully find the one that fits.
The headphones are secured to the ear with the combined action of the wing tip that attach to the ridge in the ear and the oval shaped part that is inserted into the outer ear canal. The material of the earpiece is silicone. I was surprised at how comfortable and light the headphones felt, almost forgetting that I was still wearing them after several hours of having them on. Bose is known for comfort and these definitely do not disappoint. Upon putting on the headphones you will notice how much of the environment you still hear through the earpiece. The earpiece fits snugly in your ear, but without forming a really tight seal. These headphones are not designed to isolate ambient/background noise, only slightly muffling your surroundings. However, this is an advantage not a disadvantage as someone who exercises outdoors will tell you. While exercising outdoors you will want to be able to hear your surroundings especially being able to hear vehicles when crossing streets or if someone engages you in conversation. If you are interested in active noise canceling wireless earbuds, Bose has the QuietControl 30 earbuds.
The headphones have an inline remote with microphone and buttons for playing/pausing/skipping tracks and adjusting volume. The buttons are stiff, so you will have to press with a bit of force to get the button to respond. The mic works well. People on the other line heard my voice clearly.
The audio quality of the Soundsport Pulse wireless headphone is impressive for a bluetooth headphone, given the inherent data compression and sound quality losses of bluetooth compared to a wired set of headphones. There is a good balance of high, mid, and low frequencies. Bass is powerful and tight without being overpowering. Overall sound quality is crisp. I'm sure there is some quality loss, but I was unable to discern any appreciable loss in sound quality compared to a wired set.
The lithium ion battery lasted me a little over 5 hours of listening pleasure. This is right in line with the spec of 5 hours per charge. The remaining battery life is indicated by a computerized female voice upon powering up the headphones, or alternately by a battery meter in the Bose Connect app, which can be downloaded for free from the app store.
Now to get to the 'Pulse' part of the headphone. These headphones are distinguished from the Bose Soundsport Wireless headphones by the 'Pulse' in their title. There is a heart rate sensor that is embedded in the left earpiece. It works with many fitness apps, but I tried it with the Bose Connect app. Your heart rate is conveniently displayed on your smartphone or tablet and you can monitor it during or after your workouts. It a nice feature to have for your workouts.
With respect to wirelessly pairing the headphones via bluetooth or NFC, I found no issues when pairing to my android tablets and smartphones. The headphones paired seamlessly with no drops in connections. You will hear a computerized female voice when pairing and connecting the headphones with your host devices. With the Bose Connect app, the voice can also be programmed to one of several different languages.
Okay, so how did these headphones actually do in practice during my jogging and workout routines? They work very well. Through sweaty jogging sessions and workout routines, they stayed securely on my ears. I was able to listen to my music, while being able to hear my surroundings. The headphones are comfortable; I did not have to make much adjustment when exercising. And best of all, the audio quality is superb and the fact that it is wireless, made the workouts that more enjoyable.
In summary, the Bose Soundsport Pulse wireless headphones set a very high bar in terms of audio quality and comfort. They are priced at the higher end of the market, but for those willing to accept no compromises in audio quality and comfort, and desire a set of wireless headphones that can deliver through demanding workouts, these headphones should be at the top of your list or already in your shopping cart!

Bissell CrossWave Makes Cleaning Floors a Snap!
on September 17, 2016
Posted by: lambda100
I was eager to put the Bissell CrossWave to the test. I have white tile floors in the kitchen and bathrooms, an area rug in the living room, and laminate flooring throughout my home. Dirt, debris, hair, food stains, and water marks easily show through the white tile floors of my kitchen. Ordinarily this job would require me to use a broom and dust pan to pick up the debris, dirt, and hair, and then bring out the pail and mop to clean up the food stains. This would take at least twenty minutes. However, all of that was easily taken care of by the CrossWave in a matter of two minutes. The dual action mop and vacuum turned a chore into an enjoyable experience. The cleaning solution that came with the CrossWave did an excellent job removing the tough stains and left a fresh lemon scent. Cleaning the area rug was also a cinch and the stains were no match for the CrossWave.
The remainder of flooring in my house is laminate flooring, and I was curious to see how much dust, dirt, and hair the CrossWave would remove compared to my usual tried and true method of using the dry, disposable and refillable cleaning cloths from a certain name brand product. Setting the CrossWave on the hard floor mode, I let the vacuum and multi-floor roller brush work its magic. Once the laminate flooring was cleaned with the CrossWave, I took the dry cleaning cloths from a competitor floor cleaning product and proceeded to go over the same areas where I used the CrossWave. I was pleasantly surprised at how well the CrossWave cleaned my laminate floors. The dry cleaning cloths did not pick up much more dirt. The cloths remained clean and white. However, on corners and edges, the dry cloths did a slightly better job of getting into those harder to reach areas and picked up the remaining dust and hair.
The CrossWave is also very easy to use. Buttons are conveniently located on the handle to select between rugs and hard floors, and mopping action. Measuring the proportion of cleaning solution and water is also quickly done using the fill container with markings that clearly indicate how much water and solution to add. The CrossWave comes with a good length electrical cord. I measured it to be around 25 feet in length.
The dual mop and vacuum action of the CrossWave is pretty much a winner for cleaning hard floors. The warranty is 2 years. However, there are things to be mindful of. First, even though using the CrossWave is quick and easy, you will need to spend some time cleaning up the machine after each use. The brush roller, brush chamber, filter, and the float need to be rinsed and cleaned off to maintain optimal performance. The items will then need to be air dried. Second is the cost of the supplies. Purchasing the Bissell multi-surface floor cleaning formula will naturally increase the overall cost of ownership, especially if you plan to use the mop action often. The Bissell brand multi-surface floor cleaning formula may be more expensive compared to other off-the-shelf floor cleaning formulas. Competitor floor cleaning formulas may not be compatible with the CrossWave and may even void the warranty. So, just keep that in mind. Finally, another item to add to the cost of ownership is that the brush roller will also need to be replaced when it is worn out.

Solid Performing Value Tablet
on May 19, 2016
Posted by: lambda100
Vying to grab some market share from the major tablet manufacturers, Acer produced the Iconia One 10” 32gb (B3-A20) at a low price point to attract users who do not need the bells and whistles of the top tier tablets, but still require some minimum baseline performance. The Acer Iconia One 10” does not disappoint. In fact it is surprisingly a very capable tablet for the everyday user looking for a tablet for light duty use such as browsing the web, checking e-mails, watching videos, streaming music, and playing the occasional non-graphic intensive games.
Locations of Buttons, Weight, and Finish
The tablet has a matte finish to the back which helps with gripping and preventing it from slipping easily from your hand. The power button, volume button, microphone, micro SD card slot are all located along the top edge of the tablet when holding it in landscape mode. Along the left edge there is the micro usb connection and the standard 3.5mm audio jack. The tablet also has right and left speakers.

Along the left edge there is the micro usb connection and the standard 3.5mm audio jack. The tablet also has right and left speakers.
The specs state that the tablet weighs 1.2 lbs. but it really does not feel that heavy. The weight is evenly distributed and I did not feel tired from holding it for extended periods.
Hardware and Operating System
Under the hood the tablet has a 1.3ghz Mediatek MTK MT8163 chip, 32gb of storage, 1gb of RAM, a 10.1” IPS 1280x800 screen, a 5MP rear camera/2MP front camera, a micro SD slot for up to 128gb card, bluetooth 4.0, wi-fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, and a 6.1 milliamp-hr battery. It runs on Android 5.1 Lollipop operating system.

It runs on Android 5.1 Lollipop operating system.
Available Storage and RAM
One of the first things I did after going through all the initial set up menus was to go to the system settings and check how much actual storage and RAM are available. The operating system, pre-installed apps, and system apps consume around 8gb of storage. Although marketed as having 32 gb of storage, there is only 24.35gb of available storage for the user. Additionally, out of the 1gb of RAM, only 549mb was available for use.

Additionally, out of the 1gb of RAM, only 549mb was available for use.
Screen
The 1280x800 IPS screen produces clear, clean, crisp images and sharp text. Also, I was able to clearly view the screen from various angles. It would be no problem for more than one person to be huddled around the tablet and still be able to enjoy watching a movie or viewing pictures together. Colors and skin tones are reproduced accurately, neither too cool (blue) nor too warm (yellow/orange).

Colors and skin tones are reproduced accurately, neither too cool (blue) nor too warm (yellow/orange).
For those who are unsatisfied with the default image settings, Acer has nicely equipped the tablet with MiraVision which is a set of display tuning engines which allows you to dynamically adjust the image settings such as contrast, saturation, brightness, sharpness, color temperature, and contrast. Tune it to your liking and kudos to Acer for making these options available on a budget tablet.
Finally I would like to mention that my tablet also has no edge light bleeding or dead pixels.
Preloaded Apps
The Acer preloaded suite of apps include (1) Acer’s Building Your Own Cloud (BYOC) suite of apps for managing, storing, and interaction with the cloud, and (2) Iconia Suite which includes useful tools such as EZ WakeUp for waking up the tablet from sleep mode and opening a default app by touching the screen, EZ Snap for simplifying screen captures, EZ Tasking for allowing two running apps to be displayed on the screen simultaneously similar to a Windows desktop environment, and EZ Note for easy note taking and managing your collections of images and thoughts.

I enjoy using the EZ Tasking app the most since it allows me to have two apps open simultaneously on the screen. I can have YouTube playing on one part of the screen while I browse the web on Chrome. The screens can also be resized. Note, however, only supported apps will be able to use the EZ Tasking feature.
Acer also pre-installed an app called System Doctor which is more annoying than it is useful which constantly provides notification when the tablet is low on RAM. I have simply learned to just ignore it.
Also pre-loaded is the standard Google framework of apps such as Chrome, Gmail, Calendar, Google Play Store, Play Movies & TV, Hangouts, Youtube, etc.
Finally, there is a Kid Center app which features filtered content and apps which are designed for young kids.
Performance
The tablet is very responsive to the touch. Scrolling and swiping are fluid. There is very little delay when entering text using the on-screen keyboard. Wifi connects without any issues. Web content loads fast. Apps load instantly or with only a second of delay. However, the tablet does begin to lag when multiple apps are opened simultaneously or when many tabs are opened on the browser. There were times when I had Pandora playing in the background, while using the EZ Tasking windows with five tabs opened on chrome and g-mail opened on the other portion of the screen. This overloaded the tablet resulting in the system resources automatically shutting down the Pandora music app. So to get the most optimal experience out of the tablet have no more than a few apps opened.

The Bluetooth connection is robust. I had three devices connected via Bluetooth simultaneously: mouse, keyboard, and external speakers. I did not experience any disconnection while they were in use.
I was pleasantly surprised at how smooth the movie streaming was. Video was crisp and clear.
One of the shortcomings of this tablet is the internal speakers. The sound is tinny so only use it when you have to. On this device, audio is best experienced when using headphones or external speakers.
The tablet can last me approximately 9 plus hours with a combination of web browsing and music and video streaming.
There is not much to be said for the performance of the 2mp front facing and 5mp rear facing camera. They clearly lag behind the competition in image quality and feature set. Photos are grainy with excessive noise. Use your smartphone instead for taking selfies and videos. You wouldn’t normally use a 10” tablet to take photos anyways with today’s highly powerful smartphone cameras.
Conclusion
I think this is a great value tablet with solid performance. You get a lot of features on a full size 10” tablet for a very reasonable price. It’s a no brainer. Just don’t overtax the tablet with too many open apps and you’ll be fine. The mediocre speakers, cameras, and annoying System Doctor app are minor issues and other than that, there isn’t much more to criticize. Acer did a very good job with the tablet. I would definitely recommend giving the Acer Iconia One 10” tablet some serious consideration when shopping for your next 10” tablet. In fact I think I will be purchasing a few of these to give as gifts.

Great Wifi Range Extender
on May 12, 2016
Posted by: lambda100
The Linksys Max Stream AC1900 Wifi Range Extender is a winner.
It was easy to perform the initial set up using the Quick Start Guide. There are two ways to set up the wifi range extender wirelessly. The first way is to use Wifi Protected Setup (WPS). The second way is to connect via your internet browser. It can also be set up as a wired range extender with an ethernet cable. It only took me a few minutes to have it set up.
I tested the range for the wifi extender. According to the box, it has a range of 10,000 square feet. The acceptable range for me would be to still have two signal bars. I was able to walk approximately 60 feet away before it dropped down to two bars. I was in an open space, so there were no physical obstructions that you would find in a house such as walls, metallic objects, etc. In my house, there were some dead spots where my wireless router could never get to. Strategically placing the Linksys wifi range extender eliminated the dead spots. Problem solved.
Wireless speed using the range extender is identical as using my wireless router. The range extender is set up to use dual band 2.4 Ghz + 5 Ghz. As an added bonus it has MU-MIMO technology which as the name suggests allows multi-user wireless data packets to be sent simultaneously as opposed to single user SU-MIMO. Without detracting from the review of the Linksys Wifi Range Extender, let's just say that MU-MIMO is the next generation wifi standard. It is definitely nice to have, but you will need your other hardware to also support MU-MIMO to really get the benefits from it.
The unit plugs right into any wall electrical socket. During use it gets very warm and has what appear to be ventilation holes around all four sides.
The unit is designed to be continuously plugged in and connected to your router wirelessly (or wired if using the ethernet cable) 24/7. However, I was curious as to whether or not the wifi extender would re-establish the wireless communication with my router if I turned off the wifi extender by removing it from the wall outlet and re-plugging it back in. Note there is no on or off button. It is continually on when plugged in. It turns out when I did this, most of the time the wifi extender would not re-establish connection. It would continue to blink orange indefinitely, signaling that the connection with my wireless router was not re-established. Re-booting of the router did not solve the issue. The connection still did not re-establish itself. I had to do a full re-set of the wifi extender, and enter set up mode again before it would re-connect with the router. On occasion, it would re-establish the connection to the wireless router. I tested this many times, and with the wifi extender only several feet away from my router. This is a minor issue, though as I intend to keep it plugged in all the time. Maybe it is an isolated problem with the unit I received or perhaps a future firmware update will solve this.
Overall, I would not hesitate to recommend the Linksys Max Stream AC1900 Wifi Range Extender with MU-MIMO technology. I think it is a great wifi extender. Easily 4.5 stars from me, with the half star reduction for the issue I mentioned above.

Great Budget Laptop!

I use this laptop to stream movies and music, browse the web, compose and edit documents and spreadsheets, and watch dvds. It does these things without hesitation. Boot times are also quick, with the laptop booting up between 10-15 seconds. Keyboard is comfortable but there is a little bit of flexing when typing. Screen resolution and color rendition are tolerable considering the fact that this is a budget laptop.

Decent Entry Level Laptop
on December 20, 2014
Posted by: lambda100
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a great laptop for users who simply desire to check e-mail, browse the web, watch videos, chat using webcam, stream movies and music, and work on office documents. The i3 processor and 4 gb of RAM are sufficient to perform those tasks. The laptop boots up quickly and wakes instantly from sleep mode. It comes installed with Windows 8, with a free upgrade to Windows 8.1. There isn't much bloatware that comes with the laptop, and the ones that come pre-installed are easy to uninstall. Audio/speaker quality is average. Even at maximum volume, it doesn't get too loud. Purchasing separate external speakers such as a 2.1 system will definitely enhance the audio experience.
Here are some of the cons:
Battery life is short, somewhere on the order of 2 to 3 hrs depending on your use. RAM cannot be upgraded.

The earmuffs can help to reduce more noises than ANC maybe can't do (high frequencies)? How is the passive noise reduction compared with QC35?
I have both the Bose QC35 and the Sony 1000XM2. I qualitatively tested the passive noise reduction for both, and can conclude that passive noise reduction is similar on both. The Sony headphones press tighter onto my ears and gives the perception that they offer better passive noise reduction, but they really do not.

I read that the ANC technology don't works well to cancell the high frequency noises (fireguns, fireworks). However, these headphones they have a passive isolation around the ear. The passive isolation, ANC and music combination can help to reduce it?
The passive isolation on the 1000XM2 and all audio headphones on the market for that matter are insufficient at effectively reducing high frequency noises. Of course, if you turn on the volume loud enough, you will be able to block out most of the noise at the expense of your hearing. With that said, please use proper, dedicated earmuffs rated for firearm and industrial use for your specific purpose.
