UPDATE: Added the 5th star. Read the review with edits at the end.Wow. I am rarely this blown away by consumer-grade peripherals, but I feel very compelled to write a glowing review of these headphones.I do a lot of audio work, and cans are ubiquitous. I have some wired Sennies that I love behind the mixer, a couple wired Audio Technicas that have stood the test of time in the broadcast studio, and a pair of nice Sony BT cans with ANC, so I will be comparing these Ankers to the Sony model WH-1000MX3.Without question, Anker has come further, faster, than a lot of peripheral manufacturers. The attention to detail in their products is exceptional, and downright attractive. The build quality is great, the packaging is great, the functionality is great, the ergonomics are great. My experience with their hubs is what leaned me toward their headphones.After a bad experience with in-ear phones on an airplane, I decided I really needed some over-the-ear headphones for flying, but I didn't want to carry around a $300 pair of cans that I only use a couple dozen times a year. I looked on Amazon, saw the reviews, read the single-star complaints, and plunked down a whopping $60 (SIXTY BUCKS?!?! Are you kidding?) figuring they couldn't sound that awful and would be perfect for the task.Let me assure you: these are the perfect headphones for flying.I like the idea that if they get lost or stolen, they're easily replaceable. I love how well they fit (with a caveat, below), and they look great. MOST of all, holy cow do they sound great!Pairing the first time was a little bit of a process, but that's to be expected the first time you play with a new toy. After that, I put on my go-to sound check song ("Sacrilege," by Mentallo and the Fixer), cranked the volume way up, and listened.I have no idea what the THD or frequency range on these are, but I don't think I care. The "silent note" at the 1:00 mark of that song came through so clearly, without even the slightest hiss or noise, that I was madly in love with them immediately. The dynamic range is exceptional, there was no need for me to play with the super-duper-bass-button-doodad, I just let it play.The highs are crisp without tinny tones, the lows are deep without rattling the 40mm drivers (I'd love a set like this with 50mm drivers), just a very clean, direct, simple, uncomplicated sound quality that rivals the AT 500's I have and is absolutely on-par with the Sonys.So I tested the ANR. I turned on the A/C in my office, reset Sacrilege, and played the beginning again. The A/C, as expected, kinda dampened the experience, but not any worse than the Sonys. I reset the song again, with the A/C on, and activated ANR (it's called ANC on the Sonys). THIS is where the two headphones differ dramatically.With Noise Cancellation on, the Ankers outperform the Sonys. Period. It's a night and day difference, so if this is why you're considering these headphones, waste no more time and go get yourself a pair.In terms of tonal quality, I put these at the top of the list of any wireless earphones anywhere. I mean it. They're better than ANY earbud type I've listened with, they're better than every other OTE without ANR/ANC, and they're as good as the Sonys, but with better ANR. They're better than any WIRED earbud, too, including the Sony IEMs I used to use back when everything had an 1/8" jack.Sound is, as you would expect, not 'quite' as good as the higher-end wired ATs and Sennies. I don't think Anker would mind me saying that, because they're a completely different application. If you play MP3s and don't think they sound worse than lossless files, you wouldn't appreciate the higher-end phones, so go buy these right away. If you can't hear compression noise in your satellite radio, then you won't appreciate the compression of BlueTooth and you should go buy these right away.That's quite a lot of good stuff to say about a pair of headphones that cost less than a decent dinner.There are 3 reasons for the 4 star review.1. The ear pads are uncomfortable for my ears. Not VERY uncomfortable, but enough that I have to adjust the phones several times during a 3 hour flight. It might be that they're new and I just need to break them in. If that turns out to be true, I'll adjust the review up a star.2. The battery life isn't that great. To be fair, I only need about 12 hours of battery life and I'll just recharge them. However, the advertised battery life is estimated at 40 hours with ANR and 60 hours without. My experience is that with ANR I get about 22-24 hours, and without I get about 48. Now, I have not had these very long, so I've only timed my first recharges, so if it turns out the battery life goes up with proper use, I'll add the 5th star.3. They don't fold up as small as the Sonys or even my ATs. This one alone is not worth docking a whole star, but it's the only other complaint I have. Carry-on space is so limited, and there's a pocket in my bag that the Sonys fit in, and these don't (not by much though).Hope that helps you make a decision. I'm very happy with these, and I just might give them some airtime at sea level just for giggles.UPDATE January 2023: After using these headphones for a reasonable amount of time, I'm adding the 5th star. The earphone cushions did "break in," which I'm not crazy about (if it breaks in, it will break out), but they did become more comfortable. Ordinary movement is sufficient to avoid the urge to move the head phones. On a 3 hour flight, they're perfectly fine. When they are new, the cushions are a bit stiff and I should have realized that, because my AT's needed their cushions replaced after umpteen years.Battery-wise, I am getting pretty close to advertised spec, but I have noticed that if you crank up the volume on your phone or player, then crank up the volume on the headphones, the battery life suffers dramatically. Play with it a bit, adjusting device volume and then headphone volume until you get good sound without noise.Finally, I'll tell you that I like these so much that I bought a BT card for my PC. These are pretty good for videoconferences, and they're nice to have while you run a buzzsaw or have screaming children next door and you just want to not be distracted. I'll still prefer my Sennies for mixing, and I still prefer my AT's for ordinary focused PC work, but these cans are exceptionally good. I cannot get over how good they are, affordable or not.Five stars. When they wear out, or break, or otherwise stop making me smile, I'll just go buy another set.

If you have a steel door you will need to have a multi-tool and experience on hand to install this lock. I had to use a multi tool with a carbide bit to carve out the steel to accommodate the bolt and face plate. The drill bit included was a breeze to use. I was able to drill through the steel door and wood without any problems. As far as the lock goes, it looks and feels very heavy duty (e.g., it has quite a bit of weight to it). The instructions need to be re written by a native English speaker, although I was still able to figure things out without needing to call their customer service. Programming users was a breeze. Please note that each finger print, combination lock , or proxy card counts as one "user". There is no way to program usernames and associated authentication methods. For the 300 authentication slots that are available, essentially each slot is a "user". So if you program 2 fingers, 2 passwords, and 2 key fobs, that's 6 users! Each is counted as a "different" user. I wish it had the ability to add username and then associate many authentication methods for that username. As it stands rights now you would need to keep a log on a spreadsheet for each authentication method and who has been assigned to that fob, fingerprint, etc. The fingerprint reader can often be hit or miss, but this is more of a user problem. You need to be consistent with how you place your finger on the device. It is always best to press slightly on the fingerprint while programming and using it for best results. Accessing the emergency key hole is an absolute breeze; it was definitely well thought out. I love the fact that after you enter the house it immediately locks the door behind you. I no longer have to worry about my wife leaving the front door unlocked when she is alone at home. Once you get the hang of operating this lock you will quickly realize that it was a great investment for your safety and easy access. Giving your pet sitter a temporary code is also easy. You have the ability to create single use pass codes. The price is just right. Other vendors should take notice and reduce their ridiculously high prices for their locks with half the features. I am not too fond of the Echo or Google home controlled locks...that is seriously asking for trouble. This lock is a great option unless you really need that ability to remote unlock it, have a built-in alarm, have a camera built in, or the ability to interface it with your phone to look at authentication logs or to program it. Having said that, programming it on site was a breeze. I plan to purchase more in the future as long as the price stays within reason. I'm really enjoying this purchase.

Our son is 2 now and we have used a baby monitor for him since we came home from the hospital. We actually have had two other monitors besides this one; a babysense and a YiHome that we repurposed as a baby monitor when the babysense quit working. Both of these other monitors worked via wifi, which was really convenient because we could just use our phones from anywhere in the house to view our son. We started hearing horror stories from people that lived near us about how they heard voices from their children's monitors, so we decided that the wifi monitors were banned from there on out in our house. We had heard similar stories on social media, but it became more real that people we personally knew had this happen to them. Creepy!This particular Vtech model is all that we could have hoped for when deciding on a new monitor. A dedicated monitor, night vision, built in lullabies, a long range, temperature measurements, etc. The image is pretty clear, and it has a zoom option too. The monitor is designed in a way that it rests sitting upright on a nightstand, which is a nice feature. It takes a while to fully charge the monitor, but it works while charging so this isn't a huge negative for us. The range is WILD. I know it says 1000ft, but I think its a lot longer than that. We have 3 stories in our house and I can take it anywhere in the house or in the yard and still not even get a warning signal that I'm getting too far away. Another really nifty feature that we didn't have with our other monitors is the light on the side of the monitor that changes based on how much noise is coming from the baby's room. This is nice for when you are sleeping and want to turn the monitor off, but still want to have some kind of visual cue to help you wake up in the middle of the night when the baby wakes.The one negative we have found with this monitor is that the light on the camera flashes continuously. It is a small orange light, but our others had a "stealth" mode so that it was completely undetectable. It hasn't posed a problem for our son and falling asleep yet, but it's just one more thing going on in his room when he already has issues falling asleep at night.Overall, we will definitely look at Vtech in the future for baby monitors. Should this one ever break, we would seriously consider ordering the same model again. We plan on using this for our future child as well.

I am a Professional Home and Personal Chef and I also teach cooking and knife skills. I have a multiple online presences where I use both still shots of culinary creations as well as live streams and recorded media for Social Media.I had been looking for a reasonable solution for shooting overhead shots of food preparation and completed creations. This Viozon Extendable phone tripod with a flip-over extension works fairly well overall.There are some annoyances, but I am getting functional use out of the reasonably priced unit.* The unit folds completely down to the size of a brick for compact storage and portability.* Moderate rechargeable LED lighting on top and bottom of phone mount. Temp adjustable* Remote control for lights and phone via Bluetooth. (Only works on iPhone with camera app, will not work with Filmic Pro, and unknown on Android)* Very well made and robust constructionAnnoyances:* The phone holder when extended for top-view is not tight enough to hold an angle when wanted. There is no adjustment to tighten that would have been beneficial for use in that manner.* In overhead mode, you cannot completely block out a portion of the base unless you zoom into your subject. Not a great issue, and a photo can be cropped to eliminate it, but there are options the manufacturer could have taken to completely eliminate this issue...and I hope they will with a future product. (See the picture attached to this review)GREAT Customer Service:The unit I received had an issue with the micro-USB port and would not charge the base unit without manually holden the charging cable with down pressure. (The remote control charging was perfect)I contacted the company through their website contact link and had a response in less than 10 hours (China based company) They requested picture or video of the issue to which I complied with a illustrative video. Ten hours later, I had a an email back requesting my shipping address with a confirmation that they would be immediately sending out a replacement base. AWESOME! This is how all companies should be so customer oriented. They clearly provided A++ service when required!All in all, I am rating this at a high FOUR STARS due to the annoyances mentioned. Nonetheless, this is a great product that will get a LOT of use in my cooking video, food photraphy and live streams. At the value price, I can honestly and heartily recommend the stand. Great innovation!UPDATE! April 6, 2021:WOW! I received a full replacement today...6 days after working with customer service at Viozon. This was shipped from CHINA and I got it in six days!! Awesome care of their customers!! A+++!! This should give all prospective buyers of their products a lot of confidence. Great Customer Care!!*If you found my review helpful to you, PLEASE let Amazon know by clicking the "HELPFUL" button below!

NOTE- In the 2nd pic the flash on my camera makes the color on the outside look more blue but in reality it's more teal than blue. (Like the stripe you see closest to the earbud itself in the 2nd pic).I listen to meditations all night to help me stay asleep so wireless earbuds are out of the question as they just die after a few hours. I needed wired earbuds that would hold up through me tossing turning and yanking on them all night. Prior to trying these, I'd spent $20+ on more well known brand earbuds only to have 1 earbud stop working after 10 days of use. Therefore, I didn't want to spend a ton of money on another gamble. I purchased these because you get FIVE pair for half the price of 1 pair of the brand name earbuds! I figured worse case I'd have 4 extra pair once I started having issues with the first pair. Well I'm VERY PLEASED to report that I've been using these all night (about 5-6hrs/night) every night for about 2 weeks and they FAR EXCEED my expectations. I've had no issues whatsoever up to this point. (I will definitely update if that changes, but don't hold your breath as I don't think it will be any time soon)SOUND QUALITY + NOISE CANCELLING -10/10Sound quality is great for my needs. No muffled static sound because I don't have to blast the volume to drown out my husband's shows due to excellent noise cancelling feature. After 2 weeks sound is still crisp and clear with no issues of cutting in and out.DURABILITY- 10/10The wires are not quite a braided wire, but more of a twisted wire (see 2nd pic) that has a protective outer layer of, what appears to be, a clear silicone to ensure durability which I REALLY appreciate as durability is a main concern for me when purchasing wired earbuds.OVERALL LOOK/FEEL- 12/10I absolutely LOVE the colors & design. The metallic teal color is my personal favorite. I love that they include both black and white with just a hint of color & shine. It's just enough to add some pizzazz so they are not plain 'ol boring earbuds, but not so much color that they look like cheap kids earbuds. (Although technically when you breakdown the price they are just over $2/pair). The silicone (or whatever material it is) over the wires provides a silky luxurious feel and extra durability which makes me confident that they will last well.WOULD I RECOMMEND? - 10/10 WOULD recommendABSOLUTELY 100% YES! I would feel more than confident recommending this product to friends and family... And YOU! In my opinion you can't go wrong with this purchase!

I did not buy this for streaming, and instead use this for working from home at my desk.Reasons why I enjoy it* Zoom - I was able to program shortcuts and just have a nice little gadget to mute, raise hand, camera on/off, and leave calls. I felt more engaged in the meeting vs using my mouse to move all over the screen and getting distracted by other things going on* Elgato Key Light - I received this as part of a work from home package and at first I wasn't sure if I cared but it ended up being a very useful and needed light source for my needs. Having a simple button at my fingertips made this a nice add.* Pomodoro Timer - I was able to use this to trigger multi-actions. So I had a pomodoro timer turn on and also a white noise track from spotify play at the same time. This allowed me to get my focus work done.* Calendar - I had set up separate buttons specifically to pull up my calendar on a specific area of my screen (used with moom) to have a good glance at my day. I use this feature often since my day is filled with zoom meetings.* World clock - I was able to display a world clock which is useful since I have teams across the world I work with* Spotify - nice to have controls at my finger tips.* App Launcher - it works just like cmd-tab, but I could toggle thru my apps by using a button.So... to be fair, none of this *required* a stream deck, but it definitely did make things a lot more simple, and I really liked this experience that I didn't realize I would benefit from, especially working from home.However, I have decided to return the mini. I was going to buy the 15key one because while the mini does allow for folders and menus, I find that I would be willing to pay a little extra to not have to dig thru menu items. However, before I buy the 15key, I am going to try the mobile app version on a stand first. One day with the mobile version definitely means it is not as tactile (the buttons on the stream deck feel great) but it does provide the same functionality as the 15key at a fraction of the cost.I think this is a great product for those working from home and taking video calls with teams often. This can be programmed to do a lot of things and I feel like I haven't scratched the surface. The mini definitely did everything I mentioned above, but I have the desk space and disposable income to maybe take it a step further. Highly recommend, but not needed. It's like wired vs wireless headphones. Wired was fine, wireless is better.

I'll start off by saying it was very straight forward to put together which was a big plus. Overall it's pretty sturdy considering how thin the pole is. The phone holder is a nice feature and actually held up very well. I have an iPhone 8+ with a case on it, and not only did it actually fit around the phone, when I tightened the secure screw it actually held in place! I would say it is strong enough to hold a camera even. I just sent mine in for a repair but will update when I get it back in. As for the light itself, it's awesome. It has three good light mode variations and each mode has multiple brightness levels. It's not by any means the brightest or best looking light you're ever going to see but for the price you're paying you really can't beat it. Really like that they went with a USB for the power cable. It makes it super easy to move around and it doesn't require a crazy amount of power. I plugged it into a laptop when I was setting it up and it worked fine. I now have it plugged into a wall outlet using the block that they provide as well (why does everyone not do this?!?!) and it still works great. Also the BT remote is an awesome added feature. Its super easy to connect, they have IOS and android compatibility, and it's so small you can store it anywhere without it taking up much space. There are a few small things about this product that I didn't really like. In the product pictures it looks like there are secure clamps and each level of the adjustable pole. It doesn't actually come with the clamps (at least mine didn't). Without them there it takes away from how secure the entire thing is, making me uncomfortable with putting anything to high end on the mount or a phone without a case. It also takes away from the aesthetic of the pole. There are small tan rubber rings at each level and I just think they would look better covered in black. I really liked how they gave you an extra padded mount, but they don't give you an extra way to attach it. If you want them both on at one time you have to buy another piece separately or already have one. Also the BT remote is powered by a watch battery which kind of sucks. It would have been really awesome if it was rechargeable, but at the price point I get it. Overall I think this is a great buy. It's multi functional with how easy it is to maneuver to what you need, and the light quality for the price is great. There are a few smalls things I would change with the product, but they could be seen a little greedy for $30 price point.

La camera arriva ben confezionata in una scatola anti urto all'interno si trova l'apparecchio una cinghia a chiusura e un libretto d'istruzioni.Sono un appassionato della fotografia e mi piace riprendere in genere la natura i paesaggi la flora e la fauna. Mentre per le riprese paesaggistiche la facilità della posa è molto comoda, purtroppo quando si tratta di fauna le cose cambiano di molto e quindi ci si deve attrezzare di altri tipi di apparecchi.La qualità dei materiali è buona, si vede subito la robustezza dei componenti.Le riprese possono essere ispezionate senza la rimozione della SD, infatti sulla parte inferiore c'è una finestrella apribile a libro dove si accede al display e i tasti di funzione.Caratteristiche principali:*Il pannello infrarossi led con 36 IR invisibili per le riprese notturne.*Il sensore di movimento a 120° di angolo aperto.*L'ottica a 20 MP e 1080P.*Impermeabile IP66.*Cinghia di fissaggio.L'uso è versatile, 8 batterie AA si ha una notevole autonomia, il generoso e ampio sensore PIR di movimento permette il rilevamento dando l'imput alla ripresa, con una latenza di ritardo di sole 0,3 secondi , la condizione di impermeabilità fa si di usare l'apparecchio anche nelle giornate di pioggia, le riprese vengono tutte stipate dentro una SD che non è inclusa.Ho avuto modo di usare la macchina per il monitoraggio di un capriolo, appostata in un'ampia zona vicino lo stagno dopo diversi giorni ho potuto appurare il periodo di frequenza dell'animale, quindi mi sono appostato con un super teleobiettivo a debita distanza e sono riuscito nel mio intento.Importante sapere:La fotocamera funziona tramite 8 batterie AA (non incluse) è possibile inserire batterie ricaricabili (a parte) di modello specifico NI-MH da 1,2V.La scheda SD o micro SD con adattatore (non inclusa) supportata dal sistema è da 32 gb massimo e superiore alla classe 6.La fotocamera mimetica si presterebbe anche ad un uso di "trappola" per gli enti pubblici, titolari di riserve e parchi pluviali, che appostandola potrebbero finalmente prendere e sanzionare a dovere quei pochi incivili che usano la natura come discarica!Trovo il prodotto funzionale, robusto e buono sia nel prezzo che nelle qualità elettroniche.
