This channel is dedicated to everyday consumer life hassles. We talk about regular consumer goods and services, how to select products properly and save money on them, and of course, avoid scams and money grabs along the way.
I don't go too deep into obvious technical specs, since a lot of it has been published and reviewed by others, instead, my evaluation is based on 3 pillars:
1. Ease of Use - anyone has to be able to use it if they know what this is.
2. Build Quality - product has to be durable and reliable for its life span and adequately sturdy for its method of use.
3. Task Performance - everything is made to complete a certain task, if it fails at its main purpose of existence, why would you buy it?
If my videos help at least one person on the planet make the right choice and save some $, then this channel is a success!
I am open to meet-ups and projects!

What a complete nonsense to compare a more than double price notebook (RAZER) and YES for a gaming laptop bigger is MOST TIMES better as those VERY PRICY ones most times don't deliver, but only look 'good' for being very thin, RATHER when turned off, tho... Maybe look at some comparisons of real-time gaming power and you see you pay for thin and nothing more which makes no sense for nearly any people, definitely none that would look at a review of this type of bang for the buck notebook!
@LS-cm9lt watch it again. It's not compared, it's being put next to it. You get triggered from your own imagination.

Do it work on pc with fortnite? Asking because i have 2 controlers and both not work in fortnite, some cheap models. What about this 2 from video?

I have a coaxial connection already running through my house, in fact my main router for the house is connected to a coaxial port. I’m looking at the Amazon page for the product and it seems to imply that I need two of the adapters to make the connection work. Will it not work if I take the existing connection I already have and just put one adapter in my PC room to connect to ethernet with my computer?
It's not implying anything, it literally tells you that you need a full set to make it work.
The reset process had no effect on the admin password at all. I am still unable to log in.

It did reset the device, the blue light was flashing for maybe a minute after. I still can't log in.
I have done this 3 times now, no effect on the admin password.
When i try to log in with no password under "admin" it says "unable access drive (500)"
Wow, my '16 is at 68,000mi and I've not experienced any of the failures you have. I'm still on the original wipers with no squeaks/streaks. Seat, door handle light, mirrors, roof window all trouble free. No streaks on paint on roof. I do have to lube the sunroof track each year as it squeaks and binds. Doors perfectly aligned. Engine and drive train and electronics all trouble free. HOlds alignment. normal brake and tire wear, no oil consumption. Nothing coming loose at all. Extremely long lasting brakes. Original Michelins were cheap junk and wore out at 20K. I put a nice set of Yamahas on and they are still on. The failures I've had are leaking trunk (factory service bulletin issued and fixed) failed starter solenoid (factory recall 1 year later) . A piece of dirt got in the rear caliper and jammed the rear brake. I have had lots of damage done by dealer mechanics though. THey broke my driver seat control ($35 part) They overfilled oil twice by 1 quart. They didn't bolt oil access panel on, twice, causing wind to rip it off ($350 part ruined twice). 2 weeks in shop waiting for part both times. Didn't tighten oil filter, causing oil to blow everywhere, requiring another week in shop to clean oil mess. Plus damage to my driveway from massive oil leak (good thing I noticed before engine blew) I can't blame the car for the incompetency of the dealer and I would gladly buy another Genesis.
That's what my video is implying a lot too - any car is garbage without proper service. Genesis has 0 service available to the owners. No mechanics, no parts, poor treatment all at the same time while being positioned as competition to other premium brands. All that special treatment ends once you sign the purchase agreement.

You can only fault the "Dealership" you chose to do your repairs and paint job. AND.... Since you purchased it used, what was the CARFAX on it? How many accidents if any did it have? How many owners? There's a lot of undisclosed information. My family member has one and it's a dream of a vehicle. I have an older model (2010) and I have absolutely NO issues. It still shows well and drives smooth. I think this guy just got a bad Genesis. Maybe the owners prior didn't take care of it very well or had an accident. 🤷🏾♀️
@@rhondawest2051 what was used? I got mine brand new. You missed the entire video. Genesis Corp refused to service it. Watch it again! 😀
This thing gets stick drift after a while. Also the button below the stick wears out fast. Overall now worth the price.
Easily the king of the handhelds right now
Thank you. I was looking at this to replace my Razer beause their quality is so horrid, but I was very concerned about the joystick position - with it not being angled like on the tartarus, it looked very uncomfortable to use. Having watched this, I think I will stick with Razer. Especially with the price tag to Australia.
I have a 2017 Genesis and no faults at all. Maybe you just have a defective one. And no saying your just having an outcry you should simply gotten the extended bumper to bumper warranty vs going through all these loops from what seems a defective vehicle. And I would also love to see your service maintenance records to prove your service routine has been authentic thoughout this video outcry of complaints. I love my Genesis again no faults at all 🥂
@@Claireoilve there is literally a link pinned in the comments for people like you.
honestly if you get used to it then itll be better than a razer keypad. it has a true analog and the razer is just a D-pad
We bought a Dēlonghi Perfecta Esam 5500 B (I think) 11 years ago and besides the frothing container quitting about 6 years ago, we’ve never had an issue. We love it Once it quits, I’ll see about getting it repaired, but if that’s not an option we’ll replace it with a new one and cross fingers it lasts. We paid €400.00 for it, on clearance 😂🎉
XD, put dongle in a most unreasonable usb port, complain about connecivity issues. *surprised pikachu face*
@@gladcomming what is the most reasonable USB port on your face?
if you’re using it for gaming you will still get really bad ping spikes if theres other things being used on the coax throughout the house.

Are the prices in USD? U just stumbled on the video. I recently purchased a Philips 5500/80 for about USD 660 (SEK6999) fron the Philips online outlet Versuni. Very satisfied so far (only a week/100 cups)

Is there a way to possibly get Internet from a phone line?

@cinnamocinnamon you can use phone line with it as well. The Adapter connects to the ehternet port on your router.

Hey nice review. I was just wondering how the seat leather felt? Currently my office chair’s leather is unbreathable and not smooth causing my legs to stick and become sweaty after sitting for a long time. How is the quality of the materials and can I sit in it for a long time comfortably? Thx and nice vid
@pavinos first of all none of these gaming chairs use leather unless you specifically pay for it but then you are losing any sort of design. If you like seating in your underwear with direct skin contact you will sweat in any non-perforated material. I suggest you look for a cloth seat or perforated leather seat like they do it on cars
bro the model he's holding cost 104.44 dollar on amazon 💀 💀

@@Mr.IQ69 and?
I have this laptop, its so good, i bought it 2 years ago, its now overheating for no reason, why?
Try reinstalling Windows. If that doesn't help try going to the repair shop. Maybe the fan vent is filled with dust.
If you can't figure it out yourself, take it to the repair shop

@firecat1007 is she blind now? Blasting that screen at max brightness will damage not only the screen but any eye too 😀
I would've kept both. I already have the OG black series 2 and the white core. Probably going to buy myself another custom made one as well

Don't play mortal Kombat or similar games with xbox controller 😂. Then, Élite are amazing 😍 Blue 💙 But once you get bored, red ❤
only 2 things I care about: overclock (which you can do on dualshock 4/dualsense unlike first party xbox controllers) and hall effects. if they don't have any of these things, I'm not interested.
I'd say hall effect sticks is number one for me and mechanical front buttons
Im planning to buy an ssd to back up my phone, would the 1tb version be good?
Why risk it? Knowing they fail frequently, I'd stick to Samsung T-series drives instead. Like this one for example: amzn.to/4cOvx0L
@@RomanDoes do you mean all of sandisk's product is really that bad and it's not really worth the risk?
@@RomanDoes hmm because I am only a student and I only have limited budget, the t7 and other brand options such as crucial seems more expensive in our country so I'm trying to find the best bang for my money and at the same time has good quality.
@@RomanDoes btw I learned about the Kingston's XS1000, I heard a lot of good things about it so I ordered few hours ago as it's on sale. I hope you can consider to make a review about it!
How about their 1tb option? Is it any good?
If you watched the car video, you would have already found out how penetrable the paint is
My only hesitation from buying this Blueair unit is that the design resembles public trash cans you will see on sidewalks and at parks here in the U.S. So it will look like having a trash receptacle in the middle of my living room. If I purchase the white version, they are older models. I wish they offered color options for their newer models.
lol its true, the struggle with looks
I purchased the coway Airmega IconS and it’s shaped like your old coway, but the intake is at the back while the fan is at the top. I thought the fan at the top was an intake before I purchased. Disappointing. It’s getting returned.
yes, make sure intake is front-facing to capture the dust.
Thanks for talking about the intake vents. That’s not commonly discussed in review videos. Would be great if you could do a Kleenex test on your intake vents to see how powerful they pull in air. The test you did with balls of cat hair was genius - was that done on full blast? Don’t know why the intakes can’t be as powerful as the fan component.
the hairball test was pulled in with max setting. Keep in mind air purifier is not a vacuum cleaner, it was done for demo purposes to show how it works. When it comes to intake, it's usually equal to the outgoing force, just on the intake you have more barriers (filters) to go through, so it looks as if it pulls less air.

I had just bought the Alienware dwf, but after this review I saw the neo g8 and I think about returning the dwf for the g8 🤔
At the end of the day the AW display is made by Samsung, though we liked G8 a lot, I would be cautious when it comes to both of these displays. The only advantage G8 has is 4K resolution, but again the hardware is limiting factor to spit out 240Hz refresh rate in 4K resolution.
