Escort Passport Max radar detector Posted: 21 Dec 2013 01:42 AM PST Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: The Escort Passport Max boasts increased detection range over the previous generation and, with its GPS marking of false alerts, less unnecessary beeping. Bad: Adding compatibility with the Escort Live app requires an additional $99.99 cable, which we think should be included in the MSRP. Bottom Line: The Passport Max isn't exactly a bargain, but with improved detection performance and fewer annoying false alerts, it certainly justifies its price tag. [Read more] |
LG G Pad 8.3 Google Play Edition Posted: 21 Dec 2013 01:20 AM PST Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: The LG G Pad 8.3 Google Play Edition features pure Android with a deeper Google Now integration, and receives the latest updates. It also has a sharp display, expandable memory, and runs a tad faster than its original LG counterpart. Bad: The G Pad doesn't have the same elegant build-quality as Google's Nexus tablets, and this stock model lacks a few useful apps compared to the LG-skinned original. Bottom Line: Android purists will find Google's mid-sized LG G Pad 8.3 more compelling, but it's pricier than the model that's overlaid with LG's skin. [Read more] |
Posted: 20 Dec 2013 10:34 PM PST Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: The Mac Pro's hardware is incredibly powerful, especially if you're using it for pro-level graphics and video tasks. It can output to up to three 4K displays simultaneously, thanks to six Thunderbolt 2 ports plus HDMI. The system is whisper-quiet, with a clever three-sided motherboard for efficient cooling and space savings. Bad: Internal expandability is limited, and even the starting price is a hefty $3,000. While it's a very high-design product, the components inside are intended for professional use, and not especially suitable for Apple-loving home consumers. Bottom Line: Apple radically re-imagines the professional desktop with the new Mac Pro, featuring a design looks fantastic and offers genuine breakthrough advantages. But, consumer-level Apple enthusiasts should note that this product isn't specifically targeted at them and DIY upgraders will lament the loss of traditional desktop tower flexibility. [Read more] |
Samsung NE58F9710WS Slide-In Electric Range with Flex Duo Oven Posted: 20 Dec 2013 10:25 PM PST Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: Excellent features like a dual oven and gorgeous touch screen make the Samsung NE58F9710WS Slide-In Electric Range with Flex Duo Oven a knockout. Bad: It's an expensive range, and while it falls in line with the prices of other slide-in models, unless you plan to use the Flex Duo regularly, you may not be able to justify the cost. Bottom Line: If you're not on a tight budget and like the idea of choosing between one or two ovens based on your needs, this might be an excellent option for you. [Read more] |
Posted: 20 Dec 2013 07:05 PM PST Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: Quip's collaboration tools make it easy to share documents with others, and then track every edit made. Bad: The app is missing many formatting settings found in other word processing apps. Bottom Line: Rely on Quip for its solid document-sharing features for Android, but skip if you need a robust mobile word processor. [Read more] |
