Beautiful Color and Contrast
on August 26, 2019
Posted by: RobWLINY2
from Levittown, NY
The color seems so much more vivid on this compared to our previous set, and that is probably due in part to the Quantum Dot "wide color gamut". I'm noticing more on video when people wear colorful outfits on television where before it seemed more neutral. The default factory out of box settings provide a very good picture without having to tinker, which is more than I can say for our last Samsung.
The sound quality is very good too. Again, I don't normally pay that much attention to sound quality on a TV, but it is more pleasant sounding, even without an external speaker connected at this time.
Android TV with the included voice remote will mean I need two less HDMI ports because I will not need a 'smart' streaming stick or a Chromecast. It's all built in.
The four HDMI ports will allow expansion a lot easier than our previous living room TV which only had half as many ports and had needed an HDMI switch (port extender, separate remote). To start with, we'll have a cable box, a gaming console, and a disc (Blu-Ray) player, which will leave one port for future use. The location of the ports, if you need to know, are on the left side in the rear (the power input is on the right side).
Bluetooth support is a nice benefit of this set, and will allow wireless connections to things like external speakers and headphones (maybe keyboard for some apps too).
Support for both Wired and Wireless networking is important, I am set up to run the network either way - I have an available ethernet wire which I can connect, but may leave it disconnected to minimize clutter.
The stand installed easily, just two screws on the bottom (not back) of the TV for each of the two feet. It may be safer to mount it on the wall, but the configuration of our living room layout prevents it for us (the wall is not straight).
Oh, on power up, you use the google app on your phone to link your accounts (on android, anyway). It's easy and it walked me through everything.

Powerful suction in a light/small size
on August 22, 2019
Posted by: RobWLINY2
from Levittown, NY
This Shark UpLight Duo Clean is surprisingly powerful for something so light and compact. Our previous stick vacuum was no where near this powerful. I selected this product for its smaller size which meant I could compactly keep it as a second stick vacuum for cleaning up on the second floor, though it may get more use. In our case the timing for testing it couldn't be better, the day it arrived we were moving 10+ year old wood furniture and doing so created a ton of dust, which this thing picked up great. Right away after even just a short cleaning job I could see a notable amount of dust that it collected. Assembling it was easy (did not need to reference a manual), though admittedly it seemed a little difficult to figure out how to get the hose to disconnect from the base (I think I was expecting it to work different) - but for me that was not a major issue. It's a small thing, but i love that there is a light on the stick so you can see what you're cleaning, makes it easier to move to make sure you picked up everything.

Comfortable and lightweight Jaybird Vista
on August 13, 2019
Posted by: RobWLINY2
from Levittown, NY
The android app set up the pairing with the phone easily, and using the app to connect them the first time resulted in a firmware update downloading and installing from the app. The app also allows adjusting the sound with presets, it may take some experimenting to find what appeals to your own ear, and it may vary by the kind of content you listen to most.
When I first checked the sound on music, i was unsure about the quality, but it turned out the source material was the quality issue. I found more dynamic full sound content and was impressed.
The portable carrying case has a USB-C port for charging, and note that the pairing button is inside the case. I like, as with some other Jaybird true wireless earbuds, that I can charge the case even while I am wearing/using the earbuds, and later charge the buds in my pocket inside the case. The case itself is small and the earbuds fit the case easy. Battery life is excellent, I used them quite a while the first day of testing (putting them in the charging case in pocket in between) and it's held up strong for hours. It's convenient that in the notification area on my android phone, I was able to see the battery level for each earbud. Also when I first put them on, a voice announces the battery level which I always find important for all Bluetooth headphones, without that I put them on and have no idea how close to empty I am.
While testing, to see how well they held I used these earbuds while doing a 15 minute run/walk on the treadmill and they stayed in the full time without seeming to come loose, and during that time they provided a good sound quality as I streamed live tv (which made the treadmill time go quicker too).

Gaming Laptop with excellent speed and graphics
on July 23, 2019
Posted by: RobWLINY2
from Levittown, NY
This DELL G3 Gaming Laptop went beyond what I was expecting when I placed the order. The display is a good size for my eyes (on my previous 13" laptop I had more eyestrain), and the blue backlit keyboard is very nice. It is thin and light for what it is. I was happy to see the inclusions of ports such as HDMI and Ethernet, which my last machine lacked and only supported via a USB adapter if/when they were needed. It's worth noting that this is not a touchscreen, though for me I find that to be an advantage (such as the issues when cleaning a dirty screen from touch and tapping buttons accidentally). The 512GB NVMe SSD helps keep it thin and ensures that this system boots and runs without the slowdown of a traditional hard disk, while providing ample storage. The Nvidia GTX 1660 Ti provides visual effects for games that are at least as good as the Nvidia 1070 that is on my Desktop gaming rig, making the laptop a fully functional portable gaming computer for my interests. The included i5 processor appears to have 8 cores (looking at device manager). The Wireless AC is perfect speed and matches my home network, and Bluetooth support is a nice benefit. The laptop does come with a free trial and discount for McAfee protection, but I believe in my personal case my cable company ALSO offers a "free" (with subscription) full version of McAfee protection so I opted for the one included with the cable bill. I had downloaded Steam and retrieved a few recent games in my library after getting the laptop up and running, and the graphics all were very smooth (fast) and look great.

Outstanding sound, true wireless
on June 19, 2019
Posted by: RobWLINY2
from Levittown, NY
I've had a few pair of JLAB earbuds, and they were all very good quality sound, but by far these are the best. The fact that they are true wireless and come with their own charger (which itself appears to hold a charge) with built in USB plug really makes these a great set of earbuds.

These seem to grip in the ears really well and do a good job of blocking out background (outside) noise. The sound itself is pretty good, a full sound and loud and clear.

I've made these the primary wireless laptop headphones. They are a bit bulky to wear out of the house (i.e. you can wear them on a treadmill or that kind of thing, though I prefer earbuds for that due to stability in motion), but the sound is very good, and wireless to boot.

Not Universal, Except maybe major brands
on May 10, 2019
Posted by: RobWLINY2
from Levittown, NY
My first attempt to get this up and running, which involved installing an app which guided the set up process, I thought both would be promising and also I dreaded whether it would support my "Hisense" video display ("television"). The brand did not seem to have built in support, and further, there was a "manual learn from my exiting remote" option, which resulted in "nothing detected" from the remote (which was 100% transmitting a signal because the TV power was toggling off and on as I was trying to train it). I imagine this thing has potential, it just seems that as of this writing, there is some more work needed on the software side. Mind you, something like extra manufacturer support "could" be added in an app software update, so the hardware is "no necessarily junk" it just needs to wait for the software/code side to catch up.

Instant Photos - Fast and Easy

While a limited number of picture print pages are included with the start-up kit, which does make me wonder about the cost of 'refills', I was happy to be able to print crisp/clear photos relatively quick without lugging around a photo printer.

With one of these: pic the cheapest mobile plan
on April 14, 2019
Posted by: RobWLINY2

This seems to (From all appearances) take the best signal from all five(?) major mobile data/voice providers, and repeats it so it is accessible by other providers' phones.. Thanks to transition to Voice over IP (laziness?) you can router (automatic) your calls over any network, without worrying about "who has the best coverage" because quite simply - if you have the lowest cost plan, with unlimited data/minutes, at this point with this, it does not matter. enjoy .
