Pros: Paired this with a Aorus Z690 ITX with dual M.2 PCIE 4.0 slots. It delivered just as described. Reads are close to 7000MB/s & write is about 6000 MB/s. Pics attached from Atto Benchmark & Crystaldiskinfo for temps. Temperatures are really good for the speeds it delivers. Played Sims 4 & GTA 5 without a hiccup. Everything loaded smooth & quickly, seamless load times.

Cons: None yet

Overall Review: This is definitely another level of data transfer. Can see this being great for 8K video & even better for 4K professional media workstations. Rendering & exporting times will be cut in half, of course depending on the rest of your setup.

Pros: You can drive it around to scope out your house. Out of the box it was a really easy network install hassle free. First test drive was fun & amusing with its sideways drive capability. Overall maneuverability is executed well. Night vision is a plus.

Cons: Drove it mid way in my house & when my sister walked by it lost connection & then I had to restart the app to regain the connection. After my nephew walked by in that same spot again it lost connection. Also drove it away from home via 5G & after 5 minutes it lost connection. FYI I have an expensive ASUS Gaming router with really strong signal. Tried 6 times to program it for patrol mode & failed horribly. During a straight path patrol it somehow manages to go crooked crashing into the couch legs & other objects. I believe it CANT see objects so it just runs into them. It doesn't know what a wall is so it keeps trying to drive through. The pet companion or follow mode if just as bad. When it senses you it throws itself back about a foot or 2. Then it tries to follow but it turns the other way loosing you. Then when it does actual follow for a sec it crashes on objects because it doesn't detect them or see them. Pretty much the ONLY proper working feature is as a remote control camera car, period.

Overall Review: This is cool just for checking in around your house for whatever it is you want to look around for but probably not too far depending on your router strength & location. As I mention the Robot function is not functioning patrol & follow. I would recommend this only if you needed a remote control car with a camera because after 2 weeks of testing that seems to be what its actually good for. Instead of calling in to see whos at the house, just turn on the Moore not bot & scope it out.

Pros: The 2in1 design is convenient for notetaking, drawing, or media. The 14 touchscreen smooth & bright. With the 120Hz it plays video & games super smooth and responsive. Runs cool and quiet. GPU performance is surprisingly decent for such a thin laptop.

Cons: Limited upgradeability. RAM is soldered, SSD is the only replaceable component.

Overall Review: The Acer Swift Spin 14 AI is a solid choice if you want a lightweight, quiet, and efficient 2in1 laptop built around Qualcomms new Snapdragon X Elite platform. For web browsing, productivity, streaming, light gaming, and general multitasking, it performs very well and stays cool. Battery life is one of its strongest points. Overall, its a good laptop for students, office work, graphics design and everyday use.

Pros: Extremely powerful CPU/GPU combo Gorgeous 165Hz WQXGA display Fast 1TB SSD + 32GB LPDDR5X Great for gaming, editing, and multitasking Solid build quality Ive been using the GIGABYTE Gaming A16 Pro for a bit now, and its easily one of the most powerful laptops Ive owned. The combination of the Intel Core 7 240H and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 delivers outstanding performance across gaming, content creation, and multitasking. Modern AAA titles run smoothly at high settings, and the system stays surprisingly cool for the amount of power its pushing. The 16-inch 2560×1600 WQXGA display is a standout feature. The 165Hz refresh rate makes everythingfrom gaming to everyday browsingfeel incredibly fluid. Colors are vibrant, text is sharp, and the taller 16:10 aspect ratio is great for productivity. Storage and memory are more than enough for demanding workloads. The 1TB SSD provides fast load times, and the 32GB of LPDDR5X RAM ensures smooth performance even with multiple heavy applications open. Build quality feels solid, and despite the high-end hardware, the laptop remains relatively portable. Fan noise is noticeable under heavy load, but thats expected with this level of performance.

Cons: Fans can get loud during intense gaming. Battery life is average (expected for this hardware).

Overall Review: If youre looking for a high-performance gaming laptop that also excels at creative workloads, the GIGABYTE Gaming A16 Pro is a fantastic choice. It delivers top-tier performance, a beautiful display, and excellent hardware for the price.

Pros: User-friendly interface, suitable for beginners and professionals alike. Good for quick and simple edits Tutorials for beginners to learn the basics of editing media.

Cons: Program Lagged with RTX 4060 Ti 8GB, i5-12400, 2TB NVMe SSD PCIE 3.0 X4 & 16GB Ram 3200 MHz Possible limitations

Overall Review: The 2024 edition of Adobe Photoshop Elements & Premiere Elements offers an easy-to-use set of photo editing and video production tools. Each program has three options to choose from, Quick, guided, and advanced. It is easy to switch between these modes and is convenient when needing a specific tool, or need to learn how to use one. This software package has a simple, yet powerful interface, making it accessible to beginners while catering to more experienced users' needs. However, during testing, a few issues arose. The Blur tool in Photoshop Elements was lagging at first, but after some time it worked as expected. It did result in an unexpected smudgy display before resuming functionality. This was surprising because the PC used to test the program is fairly powerful. This was mostly the only notable drawback that was encountered while testing out this software. There were no notable issues in Premiere elements. It is very easy to use and it has very useful tools for simple video editing. In conclusion, Adobe Photoshop Elements & Premiere Elements 2024 is an amazing tool for beginners and professionals to easily make simple and unique creations. However, the possible bugs and delays may hinder the flow of ones work, but with updates in the future that might be fixed & no longer be an issue.

Pros: Upgraded from 1TB M.2 SSD simple swap. Works great with my Asus Z390 ROG ITX motherboard M.2 PCIE 3.0. Used with the included heatsink from the motherboard & temps stayed really low. Being an ITX build temps were 40c idle & 57c playing COD MW. Did a 5GB transfer test using Black Magic Disk Speed test software & did pretty good even thought I was doing more then its advertised. Also did ATTO Disk Benchmark & tested with default setting & got exactly what was advertised. Note, when in game my CPU i7-9700k 87% load was reaching temps of 80c. So a lot of heat was being creating & again it manage to stay below 57c preventing thermal throttle.

Cons: As always the consumer has to take the loss of loosing what the manufacturers dont want to loose. 199GB you dont get to use, reserved for SSD Firmware functionality. You get 1.8TB

Overall Review: In this fast technological developing world 1TB of storage for the digital creators & gamers just doesn't cut it anymore. With 30GB updates from Adobe cloud software, plugins, game updates & expansion packs a 2TB storage should be the standard now. You also feel limited when you have 500GB to work with, not good feeling when you have to remove things you want to keep. With the speeds of this drive & size its ideal for 4K video production. Overall its just what I needed & dont feel limited. Recommend to start BIG or go home.
