These things PUMP
Pros: Excellent sound/bass for low-cost headphones. Padding above and does a good job of sealing out outside noises when seated properly on the ears.
Cons: Not bullet proof.
Overall Review: Was very surprised at the quality of these headphones when trying them for the first time. They're replacements for an old pair of Sony MDR-V200s that I bought several years ago for at least double the price, but these blow the Sony's away.
Too bad these didn't work out
Pros: They look nice. That's about it.
Cons: They sound "tinny," like cheaper speakers. Also there's the static noise that comes and goes.
Overall Review: I bought these to replace my old Microsoft Sound System 80s speakers that I purchased back in 1998. That's how long those lasted, and I loved them. These pale in comparison, as far as sound. Going to get a pair of the similar-priced Lxxxxtech X-230's, that seem to get great reviews.
Good quality laptop
Pros: Excellent display and performance
Overall Review: I use this mainly as a desktop (separate 27" QHD 2K monitor) and the display and performance so far has been great. No doubt this would work with a 4K monitor but don't need or want one. Using with Windows 11. Although the non-touch screen as a slight glare, it's not enough to bother or distract. The OLED and HDR (when used as a laptop) is a big plus.
Just what I needed
Pros: Very noticeable improvement in internet speed.
Overall Review: If you have only USB 2.0 ports in your PC this might not help much. I first tried it in my 2.0 port and the speeds were about the same as using wifi (my router is a couple feet from my PC). But putting it into my 3.0 port, the speeds jumped from 300-400 mbps to 900+ mbps! Major difference!
Fast shipping and product was what I wanted
So why the 3 stars? The seller ordered it from a well-known dealer for $11 cheaper and shipped it via Prime directly to me. Yes, I got what I ordered but I have to question the manner of how it all was conducted....
