We answered Joann’s plea for help in the comments section and here we expand upon it so that everyone will know about this increasingly popular scam and how to avoid becoming a victim. I’m ever afraid to continue to use my computer at all. I have NOT touched anything at all on the “thank you notice” for fear of making a horrendous error. I will not type in the man’s name because I wonder if that sent up a red flag causing my problem to not be accepted. I have Emsisoft & have had it for a number of yrs. I have received a “thank you for payment” for $399.00 from renewing a Norton anti-virus, which I’ve never had. I already had presented the problem but it was not accepted because it was determined to be a possible fraud. Joann received an official-looking email made to look like it came from Norton thanking her for her payment of $399.

![]() ![]() The Xgimi Halo+ is a strong candidate for anyone who wants a smart (streaming-capable) portable projector that's easy to carry and set up as needed, inside or outside. Using it lowers brightness and usable image size, but the 2.5-hour life is enough to let you watch a full-length movie. One other key plus is the onboard rechargeable battery. Its audio was also among the best, delivering good-enough quality at high-enough volume for a large family room.Ĭolor accuracy and shadow detail were better for SDR than for HDR in our tests, but it handled HDR well enough to deliver a watchable picture, which is more than many 1080p (1,920-by-1,080-pixel) resolution models with HDR can manage, and it can accept and downconvert 4K (3,840-by-2,160-pixel) input, so you can watch 4K HDR video and movies. Even when set for best picture quality rather than highest brightness, it lit up a 90-inch screen in low levels of ambient light in our tests. It's one of the brightest in its class, rated at 900 ANSI lumens. The Xgimi Halo+ starts with a combination of high brightness, robust audio, and image quality that makes it one of our top picks for a mini projector, and then adds Android TV for streaming as an extra. Three-chip LCD engine (3LCD) for equal color and white brightness and no rainbow artifacts.Native 1080p resolution supports 4K UHD (3,840-by-2,160) input and HDR.We found the EF12 delivered good image quality in our tests, and when compared with many competitors that offer higher maximum brightness, it had a brighter image for the picture modes that you'll actually want to use. Many will also consider it preferable to any current portable 4K model for the same reason. Who It's Forįor anyone who sees rainbow artifacts easily and considers them annoying, the EF12 is a prime candidate for a 1080p room-to-room portable. Two other important pluses are integrated Android TV and a 4.7-pound weight, which makes the EF12 surprisingly light for a laser projector. ![]() The three chips, which project all three primary colors at once, guarantee that it can't produce rainbow artifacts. In our tests, the 1,000 ANSI lumens lit up an 80-inch screen with nicely saturated color in a family room at night even with lights on, and also delivered a watchable image in daytime. The EpiqVision Mini EF12 offers a native 1080p resolution and pairs a 1,000-lumen laser-phosphor light source with a three-LCD chip design. Then, we'll take you through the factors you should consider when shopping for a projector to help ensure you find the best match for whatever you plan to use it for. We'll also explain why we picked each one for that specific use. In this guide, we'll first cover our favorite picks for a variety of needs, chosen from models we've tested. A model intended for showing business presentations in rooms with bright lighting, for example, needs higher brightness than one designed for watching movies in a dark room, but it doesn't need the same level of contrast or color accuracy. Today, you can break them down by any number of meaningful categories, including their imaging technology (LCD, DLP, LCOS, and even laser raster), light source (lamp, LED, laser, or hybrid), and most important, their intended use.Īs projectors have become more widely used, they've also become more specialized. Projectors have come a long way from the days when they were all essentially interchangeable for anything from business presentations to setting up a home theater, and the most useful way to categorize them was by their weight class.

However chest rap style monitors use smart fabrics that do not have to be stuck to your skin. If you have ever been to a hospital and seen patients with sensors stuck to their chest, than you've seen this technology in action. There are currently three technologies used for measuring your heart rate.Ĭhest strap style monitors work by measuring the electrical signals coming from your heart. They typically must be worn very tightly around the wrist to get an accurate reading though. Obviously, they are not quite as bulky as a chest strap. Wrist style heart rate monitors operate just as they sound- by being worn on the wrist. They are tend to be somewhat bulky and some people may find this uncomfortable.

It should help you in your search to find the best heart rate monitor watches. ![]() That's why we have created this short guide. This will allow you to track additional metrics such as how many steps you have taken, your total distance traveled, and even your total calories burned during the day.īefore you rush out and buy heart rate monitor watch however, there are a few things you should consider. In fact, most heart rate monitors work best when they are paired with a fitness tracker or smart watch. Heart rate monitors come in many shapes and sizes, and many can do much more than simply track your heart rate. This is a good thing, as exercising for too long in your maximum heart rate can cause injury or even a heart attack. Heart rate monitors will also allow you to see when you are approaching your maximum heart rate in real time. To get your maximum heart rate simply subtract your age from the number 220.īut it can be tedious to have to measure your heart rate by taking your pulse constantly. This is because being able to track your heart rate in real time will allow you to see if you are within your "optimal zone".ĭon’t know your optimal zone? That’s easy: you should aim to exercise at 70 to 80% of your maximum heart rate. But thanks to the ever improving technological landscape, Heart rate monitoring is now a feature found on many fitness watches.Īnd if you are someone who takes his or her fitness seriously, it may be worth your while to invest in a reliable heart rate monitor. ![]() The ability to monitor your heart rate while exercising once required very expensive equipment.

Talked with other friends with Apple Watch to see if it was just mine- nope same problem with theirs as well.įitbit was nice with the price point and it tracked what I wanted at the time. Not sure if it’s the sensors or the software that makes for such a bad experience (doesn’t pick up on exercises often, the stand reminders are terrible and it often thinks I’ve stood up when I have been sitting for the whole hour, the delay between getting a message on my phone and it displaying on the Watch and more). Another pro is only having to charge it 1-2x a week compared to everyday with the Apple Watch.Īpple Watch was the biggest mistake and would not recommend at all.

I’ve used a Fitbit, Apple Watch, and Garmin forerunner. TLDR: go for a Garmin if it has features that your Fitbit doesn’t. ![]() ![]() ![]() One, if they are red, then it means the drone batteries are drained, time to come back home.

When you buy the drone, it will come with a pair of batteries, remote control (Flypad), charging cable (micro USB), manual and 4 spare propellers. To make the drone even lighter, the skeleton is made of plastic. The wings are the most noticeable feature on this drone because they are big.

This is especially true if the error has come up when you've recently carried out an update. But if that doesn't work for you, the other suggestion that seems to have worked for a number of players is to check what's going on with your antivirus or firewall software.

It makes for a great home for anything from a simple mid-range build to a high-end powerhouse, and we've used it as the basis for our own mainstream PC Gamer test rig. If you're just looking for a solid budget case, the 4000D gets our highest recommendation. Considering that all of this can be picked up for well under $100, it's hard not to be impressed by the overall package. Overall, it's a reassuring return to form for Corsair. Though I did wish that same front I/O panel offered a little more. Out of all the neat features I like about the 4000D, the fact that it has both USB Type-A and Type-C ports on the top panel is pretty clutch. This makes regular cleaning of your system less of a hassle. Popping off the front panel is simple, making installing fans or a radiator that much easier. You'll find easy-to-remove dust filters on the top, front, and below the PSU for easy cleaning. The fact that it has both USB Type-A and Type-C ports on the top panel is pretty clutch. ![]() Although the latter can be tight against the top of the motherboard, it's still possible. There's enough space here for various radiators and cooling setups-you can fit up to a 360mm radiator in the front and a 280mm radiator on the roof. The channel in front of and behind the motherboard tray makes routing your main cables much more effortless. The ventilated front panel means the fans can run slower and quieter while providing the same level of cooling over closed-off cases.īuilding a system inside the 4000D Airflow is straightforward enough in our testing, with plenty of room where we needed it most. That changed with the release of the 4000D Airflow, which shows that the two schools can be combined for a great-looking case that offers excellent airflow. After some rigorous rounds of pulling components out and jamming them back in, here are those we found to be the best.Ĭorsair has made some excellent chassis over the years, but the appearance of some of them was starting to take precedence over functionality. So you can get it right, we went through and tested countless mid-tower cases by building into them ourselves. Getting the case right is essential-especially if you've spent a ton of money on your new graphics card. When searching for the best mid-tower PC case, keep an eye out for those with ease of access to your components, good fan and radiator support, great airflow, and high build quality. Whether you're pulling together a whole new PC, or just rehousing ready for some upgrades, these mid-tower cases will offer enough space-far more than the best Mini-ITX cases do. Otherwise, a mid-tower case will give you a good starting point for a small footprint machine that's tidy and, hopefully, badass looking. If you're looking to make a statement the best full-tower cases will offer space for a truly monumental, extreme gaming PC build. It's still not the easiest task getting hold of the best graphics cards, but there are a ton of quality cases to pick from before it comes to that. ![]() |
