I'm puzzled when I read the negative reviews, about this camera not working with [x]; this is my 3rd Logitech camera, and I've never had a problem getting them to work when I've reviewed the system requirements and made sure I was on a compatible machine running appropriate software. I've split use of this camera between my Mac Mini and my Macbook Air, and had no problem getting it to work on either machine, nor have I had any issue switching back and forth between them. Picture and sound quality are excellent, and there's a free Logitech app in the App Store that lets me adjust the zoom, lighting etc that's also effective and simple to use.What's really blown me away is that it's also just as impressive now as it was almost two years ago, when I first started using it. I bought it in October 2016, to replace another Logitech camera; the cord connected to the back of the camera had frayed over time as a natural consequence of adjusting the angle over and over, making the older camera only work sporadically, and I fully expected something of that nature to happen to any camera I purchased. Not so with this one. The cord has held up, and not because I've babied it; it's just a sturdier design and tougher than the model it replaced. And while we now have Ultra HD/4K cameras and better, this 1080p is still respectable quality; it's not like the old "high def" TV a friend of mine has that's 12 years old but whose picture now looks grainy and not at all impressive compared to other newer TVs. I've used a projector as a monitor for my Mac Mini and broadcast the video from this camera onto a relatively big screen (bigger than any TV I've seen) and the picture quality is still impressive. (I hope I don't jinx myself!)I'm not accustomed to peripherals like this maintaining their function over time. Either the gadget breaks or it becomes obsolete because newer versions of it do the job so much better that it becomes a relic. Not so with this camera. I spent more than the current price (not quite double what it's going for now) and still really feel like I got my money's worth. If I needed another camera I would consider buying another one, it's that good. It's nice to not have One More Thing that needs to be replaced, that just keeps working.So yeah, take the time to look at the system requirements, and make sure you're using a Mac running the stated minimum version of MacOS (or better), or a PC running the stated minimum version of Windows (or better), and your processor is fast enough and you've got enough room on your hard drive and all that, before you buy it. If you're planning to use it for a specific app, perhaps you should check with that app's developers to be sure that it's compatible with it, but I can vouch for Mac versions of Skype, Zoom, ezTalks, and of course FaceTime and Photo Booth, as well as browser plugins for Firefox, Safari, Vivaldi and Opera: it works with all of them.I can't say enough good things about this camera. Unless you just absolutely have to have 4K/Ultra HD quality video, it's well worth the price it's currently going for, and I am happy to recommend it.

First impressions until I get a proper mounting system:This is not a mario kart wheel like on the Wii, it is a quite advanced driving simulation that requires time and patience to properly mount and then adjust settings in your driving game. I bought this one for me and my mom to play Forza Horizon 5. She doesn't really get controllers, and I wanted to try one of these as well. You will need to mount both the wheel and pedals or else both will end up getting away from you. Also, the USB cord is decent but not long enough if your Xbox or PC sit far from where you will use the controllers (e.g. with some projector setups or even large or long living rooms). Depending on your setup, you may need a power extension cord as well. I have bought a USB cord extender to remedy this. From what I can tell, you have to adjust settings for every game you might play with this. (Check YouTube or online for some nice guides and suggestions.) I regularly do the seasonal playlist on FH5 without much trouble on controller, but with this at default settings I could barely keep my steering straight with most vehicles, and going off road meant taking a beating from the strong force feedback trying to hold the wheel in my lap. There are other conveniences you may also miss from a regular controller like being able to keep your finger on useful buttons since you may be turning the wheel a long way from center. I have a mount system on the way and will update my review once it is here. I feel it cannot fully rate until that arrives. In the meantime, this seems to be a decently high quality piece of hardware. There are some differences in button responsiveness I've noticed vs the regular Xbox Series X controller. Also, it has a damn annoying bright white light on it which I ended up taping over. I could have done without that Xbox controller "feature" carrying over. BTW, I got this at ~$270, not the $400+ it had been for a while. It's $250 now, a more reasonable price, but definitely a stretch to justify unless you are really into racing games. I'm into some, and maybe this will get me into more. TBD

This is my review for the Puxinat BT103 2.2 CH Sound Bar. NOTE: When I purchased this sound bar for another one of my projectors, I did not realize this product is identical to the GEOYEAO Sound Bar. The only difference appears to be the branding. As such, my review and photos are identical to the GEOYEAO sound bar I reviewed earlier this year. Also, to be fair, I really like the design options these sound bars have (separate or connected), I think it is very intuitive. I also like the sound quality for the price point. I decided to use the GEOYEAO sound bar in my bedroom and I am using the Puxinat sound bar for outdoor projection movie nights since setup is easy and sound quality is good. The sound bar does provide a 3D surround sound feeling which helps when watching movies and it does have the power to get very loud while still keeping the sound fairly clean. As of this writing, the Puxinat sound bar is retailing for $69.99 on Amazon. I still rate this product a 5 stars because I really like the design of setting it up like tower speakers or a sound bar. The sound quality is good overall - voices are clearly defined even at low levels. Ease of use - basically plug and play. And lastly, the price point. You get a very good sound bar at an attractive price."I was in the market for a sound bar for my outdoor projector setup and I came across this 3D surround sound bar. Since the weather isn’t cooperating, I set the sound bar up in my spare bedroom. Fist impressions, very impressed. Pros: The product came with multiple options for connectivity. I chose to use the included HDMI cable and connect to my TV’s HDMI ARC connection. The design is amazing with an option to set up like tower speakers or a sound bar. I changed the set up to a sound bar during audio testing Set up took around 5-6 minutes and is straight forward. Sound quality for movies, video games, steaming all sound great. I tried the Bluetooth function and streamed some music. Connection to BT was easy and the pre-set sound options are a nice touch to enhance the music. I like the 3D audio button which makes everything sound like you have a multi speaker set up. I have two cons: first, the light on the front cannot be dimmed not turned off. However, it is not too bright to cause a distraction. I watched a movie last light and it didn’t bother me nor did my wife notice it. However, an option to turn it off would be nice. Second con: there is no movie preset for the sound options. There are numerous presets that enhance the sound but not one for movies. A minor con but still a con. To remedy this, the remote does have treble/ bass controls which can be tailored to your sound. I was able to find a sound that worked great for different types of shows/movies. Overall, I am very happy with the purchase. Not only does this sound bar provide options for the setup, it sounds great, easy to use, and didn’t cost a fortune. If you are in the market for a sound bar, don’t pass on this one, I think you will be satisfied"
