Excellent Performance, but is that enough?
on May 12, 2019
Posted by: NAMO
This product performs better than any other 4k Blu-ray player I have ever used. But I have one major reservation about it that I will reveal at the bottom in the summary.
SET-UP
The back contains 2 HDMI outputs, one for A/V, one for audio only. This feature is rarely seen on anything but the premium players. The back also has provisions for USB, Ethernet, and coaxial digital outputs.
I always like to go into every piece of equipment I get and manually tweak the settings. Thinking I can do it better and not rely on the machine deciding in its Auto functions. I went against tradition and let the Sony set itself up with Auto, as I think most people will. Aside from an odd Dolby Vision option, the Sony hit it spot on first time. Other than the one DV oddity; Wi-Fi, video, and audio options all went without issue. Super quick and easy. About 2 minutes total.
PERFORMANCE
I was hooked on the first press of the eject button. Lots of folks say you can judge the quality of a product by the behavior of its media tray. If that is the case, this is a great piece. The tray ejected and loaded nearly silently. Disc access was quick and very muted, not a distraction like other players. No more sounds of jet engines spinning up with this Sony.

As I stated in my opening line, this is the best performing 4k Ultra HD Blu-Ray player I have ever used. I have it hooked up to an LG OLED TV and the performance of the HDR10 and Dolby Vision 4k Blu-Rays are outstanding. Blacks are inky and bright scenes in a light controlled room are almost too bright. There is outstanding definition in the darker scenes and the shadow details. Bright scenes are very bright, but still retain fine detail with no visible banding, something that is often missing in other players. This player also does a unique SDR to HDR conversion that Sony claims improves picture quality of SDR material. I normally don’t like a processed image, but I feel this made a subtle and discernible improvement.
The X800M2 supports all major HDR formats: Dolby Vision, HDR10, and HLG. In addition, the player also supports the major surround sound formats: Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and Dolby TrueHD, to name a few. Audio performance was just as clear and pristine as the video playback. Dolby Atmos and DTS soundtracks sounded great. This player has many more audio / video features and playback options. Far too many for this review. Needless, to say, if you have a file, this will probably play it and make it sound or look better.
The Bluetooth feature is a nice touch. The unit easily paired with my Sony headphones and I was able to watch movies silently. Great for late night binge watching and not wanting to disturb the family. I noticed no discernible lag in the Bluetooth transmission compared to the picture.
NEGATIVES
First and foremost, if a majority of your video collection resides in the cloud, this may not be the unit for you. It only supports 3 streaming services: Netflix, Prime, and YouTube. Nothing more. Even more frustrating is that to enable these 3 services, you must agree to allow Sony’s terms of service stating they can see your viewing habits.
I was able to lock up the player. Trying to find some HDR videos on YouTube, toggling back and forth between videos, rewinding and fast forwarding, I eventually locked up the player. Totally unresponsive. I had to unplug the unit and wait a little bit before plugging back in. Problem solved. I’m sure it is nothing an app update or firmware update can’t fix.
Dolby Vision must be toggled either on or off. I wish for an Auto option on this setting (I can’t believe I just said it). The unit will not auto switch between HDR10 and Dolby Vision automatically based on source material.
SUMMARY
As I have stated before, I really like this player. It is well built, and the audio and video performance are excellent. Far better than my players that are only a couple of years old. With the SDR to HDR image enhancements and 4k up conversion, audio and video processing have been getting better and better.

Why only a 4-star review after all the good words? I will say: value. Is this a great player? Absolutely. But is it better than a similarly priced XBOX or Sony’s own PS4? I’m not so sure. Even though the picture is slightly better than my XBOX, the audio performance is only on par. Add to that, the XBOX and PS4 can play Blu-Rays (the XBOX will play 4k Ultra HD Blu-Rays and supports HDR), plus can play hundreds of games, and have apps for nearly any and all streaming services available today. I find recommending a standalone Blu-Ray player hard to do.
My opinion: if you only want outstanding audio/video quality without all the extras, I don’t think you will be disappointed by this player. It really is a great product. However, for the same price or similar amount, you can get an equally impressive XBOX or PS4. These devices, especially the XBOX, have almost as good video quality, identical audio quality, and can do so much more.

A very good value
on May 3, 2019
Posted by: NAMO
Quick Overview - The ear buds have a fairly stiff plastic strap that goes behind your neck and connects the two drivers. On that strap are two plastic pods. One pod I assume is the battery, and the right pod contains the charging port (micro USB) and audio controls. There are only 3 buttons, so each button serves more than one job. Controls are fairly straight forward, but does take a few times to get them down. Due to their location, I was unable to look down and see the controls, having to rely on feel. After using them for about 15 minutes, the controls become second nature. The box includes an assortment of silicone tips to help fit the drivers in a wide variety of peoples’ ears. Each individual ear bud is magnetic and they can be stuck together when you don’t have them on for hanging or storage. Nice touch.
Positives - The Bluetooth audio is clear and detailed, even when listening at moderate volume. The product is super easy to pair to both Android and iOS devices. The controls for the headphones mostly work as promised. The ear buds vibrate during a phone call, pause your music, and announce the caller’s phone number. They also announce the status of your buds, pairing, etc. Very nice. The pods have a built-in microphone that can be used to answer calls or speak to your Google Assistant or Siri. Conversations are very clear and callers stated they have had no issues hearing or understanding me. Most of my calls take place in an office environment where ambient noise is minimal, so windy days could prove more challenging. The buds support Bluetooth 5.0. Bluetooth 5.0 is more energy efficient than prior versions, so you can get longer listening time with less battery. Note that Bluetooth 5.0 is backwards compatible if your device doesn’t support the protocol. Battery life is rated at 8+ hours and I routinely get a good 10 hours before needing to charge them.
Negatives – Once pushed a little too hard, these buds quickly give up and distort. Returning the audio to a lower level does clear things up once again. Unfortunately, even with the pre-programmed EQ curves, don’t expect any significant bass. While not necessarily a negative, it must be noted that this product does not have any form of noise cancelling technology built-in and relies completely on a good seal in your ear to suppress ambient noise. Speaking of ambient noise, my Android devices seem to cause the headphones to emit a slight hiss a majority of the time. It isn’t terribly loud, but is noticeable mainly during quiet passages in songs and podcasts. Oddly, it isn’t all the time. It will shut off for a few seconds then there is a slight pop and the hiss returns, only to randomly repeat the cycle. I did not notice this behavior with any of my iOS devices. Lastly, voice assistants. I have had absolutely no issues with iOS devices and these ear buds. Double click the center button on the right pod and Siri immediately opens up. The mic works well and Siri understands what I am asking. Responses to my questions and requests are also clear and intelligible. Super slick. Android was another issue. I am unable to get the product to open the Google Assistant no matter what I try. Maybe you will have better luck, but I tried numerous times and ways and have still been unable to get the ear buds to open the Google Assistant as indicated in the documentation.
The final verdict is that I would say these are definitely good replacement ear buds. The audio quality and value are quite good. These headphones offer a lot of features: Bluetooth 5.0, IP66 sweat resistance, easy access to voice assistants, vibration alerts, and voice guidance. For listening to podcasts, news, or music at the office or the gym, these are well worth your consideration, especially if you use an Apple product.

This unit was able to make significant changes
on April 20, 2019
Posted by: NAMO
Weboost claims their product will boost signals up to 50dB. It supports multiple users across multiple carriers. A review of the installation sheet indicates that the Weboost supports the following: Bands 12, 13, and 17 in 700MHz; Band 5 in 800MHz; Band 4 in 1700MHz; and Bands 2 & 25 in 1900MHz. For those unfamiliar with the banding scheme it roughly equates to the following:
AT&T typically uses Bands: 4, 5, 12, 30 and Band 2 for PCS
Verizon typically uses Bands: 1, 2, 4, 13
T-Mobile typically uses Bands: 2, 4, 12
Sprint typically uses Bands: 25, 26, 41
GoogleFi typically uses Bands: 2, 4, 12, 25, 26, 41
The bands listed above are applicable to 4G LTE and this is by no means an exhaustive list as there are many more bands in use today. There are also many more carriers, and they too use some or all of these bands listed above. As a whole, Weboost seems to support a majority of the commonly used bands from the major carriers.
The device is quite simple to install. The steps are clearly marked on the antenna packages, on the device, and in the instructions. First, install the outside antenna (it is about 3" tall and is magnetic). But, includes an adhesive pad for those with aluminum vehicles. Next, install the inside antenna that the cellular devices will connect to. Find a desired mounting location for the amplifier unit, it measures approximately 4.5” wide, 6” tall, and 2” high and install the amplifier. Hook your antennas to Weboost and run the included power cable to a 12V outlet. The included power cable even includes a USB port to charge your devices. Nice touch. Once power is connected and the unit turned on, the device boots up. If everything was hooked up correctly and you installed your outside antenna in a good spot, the LED indicator light will turn solid green indicating that it is receiving cellular signals. That's it. You don't have to do anything to your phone. It requires no special pairing or software to make the Weboost function.
How did the Weboost actually perform? The following were results I achieved during tests from various known low cell signal locations. Tests will always vary slightly based on many factors, from location, congestion on the network, interference from surrounding businesses, foliage, etc. The results below were from a very popular network speed testing app. The devices included a mix of Android and iOS devices and this network speed testing app was installed on each device. I won’t list each and every test I conducted, but here are common results:
Before:
T-Mobile: Down: 41.7 Up: 1.01
Verizon: Down: 3.62 Up: 0.04
AT&T: Down: 27.3 Up: 7.75
After installing the Weboost:
T-Mobile: Down: 33.9 Up: 34.9
Verizon: Down 18.4 Up: 9.43
AT&T: Down: 12.8 Up: 17.5
I would say the WeBoost works well. Even though some of the download speed were slowed slightly, the increase in upload speeds made all the devices seem smoother and speedier with the Weboost. Calls that used to be inconsistent and drop in these locations went through without dropping and without fading. The Weboost was even able to take phones that indicated a 1x connection, to 4G LTE. The Weboost seems well built, and as mentioned before, was very easy to install. The only thing worth noting is that you have to remember that you installed this product and it has an outside antenna. The outside antenna is no match for the brushes and scrubbers at the carwash. Nice product!

A Very Good Speaker for Its Size
on April 16, 2019
Posted by: NAMO
I will admit that this little speaker exceeded my expectations.
The main speaker itself is approximately 2” in diameter, with unit having an overall diameter of approximately 3”. Sony touts this as an Extra Bass speaker, in that it includes a 2” passive radiator at the bottom of the unit. I will admit that for just a 2” full range speaker with a 2" passive bass radiator, this performs pretty well. I had no issues getting it pair with either an iOS or Android device. Additionally, Sony claims you can pair this with another XB12 and have a stereo speaker pair. Very cool. I was unable to test this feature, I only have the one speaker.
Sony claims that it will last approximately 16hrs on a full charge and this seems reasonable. I have it at work and can listen to the speaker for a couple of days straight before needing to recharge it. The play time includes a lot of quieter listening with a good bit of louder play times mixed in. Battery life is very good.
The speaker is IP67 rated against dust and water intrusion. This is a great feature as you don’t have to worry about it if you take it to the beach, the pool, to workout, etc. Just ensure all the covers are tightly closed. The little speaker also includes a microphone. I have used it several times to answer the phone when it rings in during a listening or workout session. Sound quality on my end is very good and those I talk to say I am very clear on their side as well.
Now, a few of the shortcomings: Push the little speaker too hard at higher volumes and it will distort and the audio will become very poor. It’s just the laws of physics. Lower the volume a little, and the speaker clarity returns and everything is good. This speaker doesn’t get super loud, but has performed adequately in my listening time. It has played plenty loud enough for me at work and at the gym, but it definitely won’t convince you that you are at a concert.

Though small, I have grown to really like the size and form factor. It fits nicely in any cup holder I have tried. I am thoroughly enjoying it at work, as are my co-workers who have commented on how good such a small speaker sounds. I especially enjoy taking it to the gym, where I don't have to worry about any ear buds, headphones or wires. The added features of making the speaker a hands-free device with a built-in microphone and the ability to pair it with a second XB12 was quite clever. Nice job Sony!

A good & very useful vacuum
on April 9, 2019
Posted by: NAMO
I didn’t think a vacuum that only draws 5 amps and has just a 9” cleaning path would serve any real purpose for me. My main upright vacuum is a full 12 amps and does a great job at cleaning carpets, hardwoods, and tile. I have had it for several years and it continues to work like new. I tried the Shark in a carpeted room that been swept by my main upright a couple of days earlier. I knew there was no way this lightweight would do too much. After all, it draws less than ½ the power of my upright. I was wrong. The little Shark filled its dirt cup up nearly half full.
The vacuum has two power settings on its power head. 1 for bare floors and 2 for carpet. These settings don’t appear to increase suction power, just increase or decrease the speed at which the brushes rotate. The motorized head has a rotating soft, fuzzy roller and a normal brushed roller behind the fuzzy roller. The motorized head has 2 LED lights to illuminate the cleaning path in front and a red/green LED to let you know if the brush head is turning or not. I was able to stop the brushes from turning while trying to sweep an area rug with a very long shag-type pile. The LED turned red. I shut off the vacuum, waited about 3 seconds and turned the vacuum back on. The LED turned green and brushes started rotating. I never had them stop again. The vacuum swivels at the brush head and the vacuum will lay almost flat to the floor, making it a breeze to sweep under furniture. While it does not go completely flat to the floor because of the motor, I have had no problem reaching under any of my beds or other furniture. The LED's do a good job of illuminating under your furniture so you can see where you have and have not swept.
The Shark has now become the go-to appliance for daily cleanups, even over my cordless stick vacuum from another manufacturer. It is a little awkward when you first start using the vacuum, as the weight is at the top of the vacuum instead of at the base like most uprights. It kind of feels like using a weed eater. With there being no weight on the brush head, you have to be cognizant that the brushes stay in contact with the floor while you use it. But, at less than 10 pounds it isn't tiring to use.
Shark includes a few attachments like a brush and crevice tool and there are many more useful ones that are available for purchase separately. The accessories are easy to attach and don’t require a bunch of steps to get them fitted like a normal upright. The Shark has multiple ways to convert it based on your task. You can use it like an upright, you can use just the motor and an accessory, or you can detach the extension from the powered brush head and use it with the tools to extend your reach.
While I don’t know if this is a suitable replacement for a full size upright, especially for those with larger homes. I could see those that have smaller homes or apartments making this their only vacuum. It is a great vacuum for quick cleanups along with general everyday cleaning. I have even started using it to clean up my cars. It has just enough power to get rid of the grit and grime that accumulates on the floors and mats, and most importantly, the included attachments can reach places my shop vac or upright never could.
It would be great if Shark included a few more attachments with the vacuum instead of making them available at additional cost. In particular, I think they should include the wall mount bracket instead of making it separate. The vacuum won’t stand up by itself unless you remove the motor and clip it to the molded hook at the top of the brush head. I think the wall mount bracket would be a must have accessory.
This vacuum is super convenient and works well. As a bonus, I have not had any hair get wrapped up and stuck around the brush head, and I have tried repeatedly. AWESOME!! I would definitely recommend this product.

OK, but not the best audio quality.
on April 2, 2019
Posted by: NAMO
I had high hopes for this speaker system. After purchasing Sony's excellent WH1000 headphones and my prior Sony TV's and audio gear (CD Players, Tape Decks, etc), I thought this would be a home run.
SET-UP
If you use this product with an Apple product, you will love the ease of set-up. After pairing the device via Bluetooth, your Apple product will automatically (with permission) open the App Store and display the 2 apps that you use to adjust its many parameters (Music Center & Fiestable). The Music Center iOS app allowed me to add my music subscription services without issue and I could either use the Music Center app to access these services within the app. A total breeze and a true delight. AWESOME!
I was less successful with my Android phone. I tried to pair the speaker with my S7 via NFC. I had several unsuccessful attempts to pair with NFC and eventually just paired it manually via Bluetooth. The Android Music Center app worked very well & also allowed me to add my music services. Oddly, when you select add app (for your music services), the Sony Music Center app doesn't just display the music apps on your Android device, it displays every single app, regardless of its purpose installed on your phone. The Fiestable app didn't work so well either. The motion effects of the phone didn't work correctly and the whole Party Light function was a battery hog.
PERFORMANCE
These were my biggest disappointments. Sony uses 3 x 2" tweeters that are not high quality. Anyone that has had a good set of home stereo or car speakers will realize how important a good soft dome or titanium tweeter can be. Sony's appear to be a paper material (like what you would find in a cheap set of factory car speakers) and do not lend themselves to high quality music reproduction. Sony also touts XTRA BASS for this system, and that is good. If you unselect XTRA BASS (enabled by default), you literally get no bass. Even with XTRA BASS enabled, these are not high excursion, deep bass producing woofers. Second - The item has a built in FM tuner. It is entirely software based and you set the presets via your iOS or Android device. The tuner received all major broadcast stations in my area without issue, but suffers from a definite noise problem. It is not static, it is just digital noise that is always present in the background & cannot be fixed (it reminds me of analog tape hiss). The louder your music, the more noticeable it is, especially during the quiet passages. Third - Sony uses LDAC as opposed to the far more common Apt-X for Bluetooth streaming. LDAC offers up to 3 times the bandwidth of normal Bluetooth for superior sound quality. My S7 picked it up (iOS was out of the question) and I enabled it. Unfortunately, even under ideal conditions (less than 18 inches) from the speaker, my phone could not provide sufficient bandwidth (Prioritize Audio) to maintain a stream. Once I selected Prioritize Connection (this utilizes a far lower bitrate), it played without issue. But I feel it offered little, if any, discernible improvement over standard Bluetooth streaming.
With all this long winded information, the speaker is fun. It has a good selection of input options, such as Bluetooth, NFC, a mic input for karaoke & the speaker even allows you to charge a phone and/or play files via USB. The Fiestable app allows you to play amateur DJ and adjust things like LED flash rate and color, create sound effects like scratching, audience applause, drums, cymbals, etc. If you throw large parties, it may be fun to play DJ and it is always fun to listen to how bad your buddies sing karaoke. With the ability to pair multiple devices via Bluetooth to the speaker, others can share their music with everyone. However, I quickly saw little value after the newness wore off.
The speaker is link-able to other GTK-XB72's to expand the sound and the coverage. However, with the deficiencies noted above, there are better choices for streaming & sharing your music. Furthermore, these other major players offer similarly priced speakers with better, more detailed music reproduction. Some even account for your room acoustics. If you don't specifically need the karaoke function, the portability or the limited DJ enhancements, you are better served elsewhere.

Good choice for small drive
on August 11, 2017
Posted by: NAMO
Verified Purchase:Yes
A nice little drive. Has a downloadable utility to set the maximum drive speed. This is to control drive noise while in operation. It is pretty loud when set on standard or performance mode. But, on quiet mode, it is very quiet. Not that it is louder than any other optical drive out there, just more noticeable because instead of being enclosed in a computer case, it most typically sits out on top your desk.
All in all, has a lot of features for the money and is compatible with a wide variety of media.

Very Nice TV

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a great TV. Having reviewed and watched numerous TV's, none stood out like this one. This was the only one that could match my ZT60 for black levels. I opted for this model over the other E & G series, as they use the same OLED panels, just step up to better sound on the higher end units.

Verified Purchase:Yes
As a fan of the original 80's TV show, I had to get this when it came out. Plus, being able to get it on a huge sale, made it a no brainer. Is it a great replica of KITT, No. But, it brings back the nostalgia, just like the Midway pack and A-Team pack.

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is about like all the other Harmony remotes. It works about 50% of the time. It routinely misses signals when executing commands. I have to manually keep my other remotes handy for when it fails to turn something on or off properly. No amount of tweaking in the settings or online help has resolved the issues. I returned this item and purchased the Harmony Hub. It works much more consistently & is Alexa compatible. I have yet to have the Hub fail to send the proper commands. The Hub is much more reliable & it included an RF remote too. In my opinion, the Harmony Hub is a much better alternative to this.

What if a vacuum was so advanced it could sense the type of floor it’s cleaning? BISSELL SurfaceSense Pet vacuum can! Its intelligent SurfaceSense Technology can detect floor types and automatically adjust the brush roll speed to give you optimal cleaning performance on any floor type. It’s also our first vacuum with a Tangle-Free, Multi-Surface Brush Roll which has stiff bristles for cleaning carpet and soft bristles for vacuuming hard floors, so it can pick up everything from fine dust to larger debris across all floor types. SurfaceSense Pet vacuum has a One Touch, Easy Empty dirt tank and a SmartSeal Allergen System that traps fine dust and allergens while you clean. The LED headlights illuminate hidden dirt and debris while the Quick Release Extension Wand and above floor tools work together to clean hard-to-reach spaces, like upholstery and stairs. And this vacuum doesn’t just clean up after pets, it helps save them, too! BISSELL proudly supports BISSELL Pet Foundation and its mission to help save homeless pets. When you buy a BISSELL product, you help save pets. We’re proud to design products that help make pet messes, odors and pet homelessness disappear.
 

Is this a self-propelled vacuum? Is there a Bissell that is?

Good Evening,

Unfortunately, no. This vac is not self-propelled.

Does this laptop have a MUX switch?

Good Evening,

I don't believe so. Unlike other laptops, that have both integrated graphics for the main display and an aftermarket solution (AMD or nVidia) for an external display, this laptop appears to be use the onboard, integrated graphics at all times.

About how long does the battery last from a full charge?

Good Evening,

I'm getting roughly 2-3 hours of casual use (watching videos, web surfing, emails, etc)

If I'm gaming, I get an hour or so, depending on the graphics needs of the game.

For on-the-GO peace of mind. Use UV light with or without a vacuum function so you can safely clean your phone, car and plane seat, hotel room, luggage and more.
 

Is the filtration true HEPA or HEPA-like?

Good Afternoon,
According to Raycop, this unit has true HEPA filtration, with a Level 13 HEPA filter that comes pre-installed in the unit.
Thanks!

DOES THE POWER BUTTON HAVE TO BE PHYSICALLY CONTINUALLY HELD DOWN BY THE USER TO KEEP THE DEVICE IN THE RUNNING MODE ( AS WITH THE DYSON CORDLESS VACUUMS ) ?

Good Afternoon,
No, you don't have to hold the trigger down the whole time like your Dyson. There is a small lever just above your thumb (assuming you are right-handed) that can be used to hold the trigger down while in use.

Thanks.

Enhance your TV experience without compromising your room’s design with the Sonance MAG SSTVAUDIO Sonos Powered 2.0-Channel Soundbar Alternative.

Designed as a discreet soundbar alternative, this system features two MAG6 LCR speakers with pivoting silk dome tweeters and dual 6.5" woofers, ideal for media rooms, living rooms, and TV audio upgrades. The included Sonos Amp powers your speakers, supports AirPlay 2, and connects directly to your TV via HDMI ARC, making it easy to control everything with your existing TV remote. The included PowerBridge kit and Sonance wall box conceal the Sonos amp, wiring, and even streaming devices like Apple TV®, Roku®, Amazon Fire TV Stick®, and Google TV Streamer®, eliminating the need for TV stands or exposed cables.

With a design-first approach, the MAG SSTVAUDIO is the ultimate in-wall TV speaker system for design-conscious homes.
 

Can you attach a sub to this system as well for extra bass, or are you stuck with just the 2 included speakers? And is the amp powerful enough for a sub?

Good Evening. Yes, you can pair a sub with this system. Using the Sonos app, you can add a Sonos sub or the amp has a line out to add a sub via line out connection. The sub will have to be self powered, the Sonos amp will not supply power to drive the sub.

Thanks.
