My new i5 does not create a smart map. It claims it is mapping in the app but when it's done there is no map shown in the app. I read in a few places online where the i5 does not smart map so i assumed this is normal but now your vid says it should map. Confused...
If its just me or, this console for me costs like 450 for me, idk how tf for yall it cost 800, i bought a ps5 for 950
Biggest negative is only 3 gb ram . Should have minimum of 4 . Seems like a little difference but it does make noticeable difference. Google as mentioned here can be sideloaded.
The problem with the claw is intel chipset it's nothing compared to amd z1 extreme, ryzen 7840u or 8840u with rdna3 and readeon 780m integreted graphics. Even last gen readeon 680m like the one in ryzen 6800u is much better. but the new two msi claw 7 or 8 ai+ are amazing because they have the new intel ultra 7 cpu's(2nd generation) it is amazing. and they give amd a run for their money. Amd chould be worried about intel because their back in the game. The new msi claw 8 ai+ have amazing specs. I wouldn't mind choosing intel over amd.

Nah the MSI Claw was the worst pc handheld of 2024 by far. Horrible framerates. Ally X smokes it by a mile.
The ally x is also 300 more dollars
@@hitnrun66 Okay but he said "best handheld gaming pc of 2024" which it is not. And the regular Ally is also way better than the claw, and the ally is $100 cheaper than the claw right now.
@@btconnergamingThe same Ally that cooks literally everyone’s SD cards and ports leading to constant repairs?
@@Huh-t4t the sd card slot is only an issue on the ally and not the ally x. But yes, if you need to have a micro sd card, then you shouldn't get the regular ally. Even if a micro sd is your deciding factor, the msi claw is still one of the worst handhelds you could buy for performance. The Ally is melting micro sd's and still getting better reviews than the claw because of how poorly the claw performs.
For the money this handheld sucks, wtf you talking about. You cant run anything else than games like minecraft and tetris. The performance is worst of all the handhelds out here in 2024. Dislike and stop fooling the crowd.
Yeah, original pricing prob sucks. I picked this up for my gf at a liquidation sale for $300 (canadian) taxes in, unopened brand new in the box back in August, and been finding it to be great for her. Runs better than my Steam Deck for the most part (other than a few games), lots of nifty features, better joysticks, triggers and buttons imo. The new Claw looks like it'll be one of the better handhelds this year as well. Curious to see how this year shakes out for handhelds
Well i got it for 350, and the rog ally is double that price so... worth it imo. And i can play god of war 4 and ragnorak with little to no issue. Idk where you're claims are coming from. Its definitely capable of running most AAA games at low to mid settings. when it comes to the steam deck games are specifically optimized for it. So obviously the steam deck is going to win most of the time. Stop meat riding.
@@hitnrun66 The OG Ally is like 350€ here on marketplace or 499€ new. The Claw is non existent because no one bought that and for retail price it sucks. And no im not a Steam Deck user I use the Legion Go Go touch grass you dogwater
I just got mine and I can run mechwarrior online no worries. So cool. 😎
How much fps does Fortnite run
when i was setting up gemini account "nest" was mentioned and I wanted to check it out, didn't know this existed nor that amazon and apple are competing in this space but seriously you don't need any of that, maybe except wifi
Do you know if it's possible to show a Telus Slimline ADC-VDB105X wifi doorbell camera video feed onto a Google Nest Hub so I can watch it on a larger screen that using my cell phone?
Cool video yet didn't answer the questions I needed for Google Nest hard wired light switches. And Thank you for saying Hey 'G' lol I'm looking to replace my light switches that will allow me to have it remotely control other devices (lights) AND not have it dem lights. You get the idea for future videos.
you can easily sideload google play store and get all the apps you want, yes even youtube. plenty of tutorials and easy instructions
Just switched from Mobility to Virgin plus and cut costs by over 50%. No fuss, instant switchover, and a very knowledgeable technician Anthony. Why didn't I do this sooner? Mobility offered me, a loyal customer, $1.00 per month savings. No math to do. - 5 stars to Anthony!!
I’m having trouble adding contacts from the app. Any ideas on how to do that?
How can anyone adopt Google as their smart home of choice ? Beats me !
I have had 2 Samsungs that did the same as yours (NOISEY) and 1 LG Linear Inverter that has lasted 10 yrs and counting. The Samsung fridge noise (LOUD) is due to the ice touching the fan and blocking the ducting. causing the noise and causing the inside to not cool, and also ht fridge running endlessly. The only good Samsung product I have ever bought is the NVME and SATA SSD drive for a computer. beyond that ... Say NO to Samsung!
How much did the space heater affect your electricity bill?
I'm a Google Home fan. However, after using both Amazon and Google home devices, I noticed that Alexa is a lot faster at getting things done. Google has at least a 5 second delay in responding to commands vs 2 seconds from Alexa. In addition, I like the Echo Drop in feature. Huge help when I need to check in on my kids.
I have been paying for premium for years and now all of a sudden I have these horrendous intrusive ads that are loud. What can I do to stop these ads?
Who are using chrome browser 😊
I got $28 month plan. I love it.
yikes, that seams high. i pay 8/m for car + app and seams to do all. what does the the 28 plan get you?
I use Alexa and have been using it for years. I'm seeing many new "features". I put the word "features" in quotes because, to me, they are not features. To me they are very disturbing. Especially with the music playback system. I purchase music from Amazon and listen to it through the echo devices. It used to be great, but now they decided to add other music to my playlists that I did not buy, or am interested in. This is probably how they generate additional money, but I want to listen to the music I paid for and not what other artist have paid to make me listen to. Now I am willing to switch systems to Google. So I appreciate your reviews. The cost of getting new devices is not something I really want to do, but I think it is time because of what I just talked about. Maybe you could do a review just on the music section of the systems you have. I would hate to switch everything over to Google only to find out that they do the same thing.
netflix has increased in subscribers😂
Spotify lost a customer of 5ish years when they made their UI look like garbage, im glad i switched to AM
That lag on the video footage is crazy
I like it but the songs are repetitive
I have this one for 2 years now. It stopped working after 10 months, so I got a replacement monitor. The colors a good enough for color critical work, but reliability, build quality are poor. Also it suffers from flickering like many non true 10-bit displays.
Thank you. Terrific straight to the point video! Ya gained a new subscriber. 😉
Thanks!🙏

are you trying to tell me you don't think that sirius is on A program loop hahaha you'll figure it out someday 🦧 then you probably didn't have sjirius radio back say like 2007 when I first got into it.. IT WAS ACTUALLY COMMERCIAL FREE MUSIC CHANNELS but I accidentally bought a lifetime subscription otherwise I would not pay for this slop nowadays 4 LESS THAN $5OO.oo
I have one for my daughter. Its very limited in features. Not having the calling feature is a bit disappointing. 20 second videos are too short too. its very basic. I wish they would come out with a bit more features.
You are 100% correct sir.
If you never find yourself in dead service areas, why detract from Pandora or UA-cam?
Literally the only video on UA-cam that shows the unboxing and accessories. Thank you!
You’re welcome! Glad it was helpful!
I bought mine today at $156.00
The mapping feature does not allow the placement of a doorway. Only a wall. I have rooms I do not want it to go. My mobile home has an addition with a ramp and it can go over the edge and then gets stuck. I don't want it in my bathroom and if I forget to close the door when it vacuums it will actually close the door and gets stuck there as well.
I do have an i5 however I also have some questions in doing the set up for the mopping feature. I am wondering, do I leave the linen bag that’s inside to collect the vacuum debris do I leave that in there while I’m in the mopping mode and also on the black bin I’m assuming you’re supposed to fill when you mop it says something about removing the filter says cannot get wet so I don’t know how to do that. I don’t wanna find it so hard that I break it to remove it so can you tell me a simpler way to achieve these things and if I’m in the ballpark of getting it done. I’ve owned my I five for probably two or three months now and have not been able to figure out the mopping feature any help will be a blessing. Thankyou Deb N
I was with Spotify for 10 years, until they announced their prices would go up. I decided trying AM. Their audio quality won me. I said bye to Spotify.
AM? Please elaborate.
Our old receiver was toast so we were forced into getting a new Ignite box. Not since the invention of television has there been a piece of junk like these. They have no indicator lights to inform that: !) The unit is on 2) There is a recording scheduled 3) There is a recording in progress And to add insult to injury ...the damm thing doesn't even have a clock!! We had to order one from Amazon. It is like every minute customers are in front of the TV, Rogers is rubbing their corporate arrogance in our faces. We hadn't thought about switching for some time, but as soon as their competition has a box that isn't,'t such an insult, we will.
Hi, i want to buy this tablet, but I want to ask, can I download youtube on it, if not from it's app store, can I download it from the Internet.
There are unofficial UA-cam apps you can download on it. UA-cam themselves don't make an app for the Fire, but the unofficial ones work alright.
The problem with satellite radio is you have to pay for it and it turns radio in the mess cable TV became. Customers paying for a service that includes hundreds of channels they will never watch. Satellite radio includes a bunch of stations/podcasts and other junk you will never listen too. Sirius got sued recently for making it difficult for customers to cancel their subscriptions. A few weeks ago I started getting phone calls from Sirius XM. I don't have, and never had a Sirius subsection so I was like why are they calling me? I assumed the calls were spam and ignored them. Yesterday I got a letter from Sirius XM in the mail. They were notifying me that the free trial that came with a car I purchased back in August was nearing the end and they were trying to get me to continue it. It was then that I realized why I was getting phone calls from Sirius XM. Unbeknownst to me, they have a deal with auto dealerships that allows them to tack on a Sirius XM free trial period when customers buy new and pre-owned vehicles. When I bought my car no one at the dealership told me it came with a Sirius XM free trail. Shenanigan's like this are why they got sued. Radio is dead, it has no future as far as I am concerned. The future is streaming on UA-cam and Spotify.
Wat if I have a carpet that I can not easily move?
Thanks
You're welcome!
Can you help with SD issues
Thank-you for giving me some great ideas, your house is so cool
I bought the Fire 10 back in 2021 and it is a nice budget tablet considering it is very heavy and no youtube or Gmail. I wouldn't upgrade to the 10.1 13th generation for those reasons. I am a die hard Apple fan and in need of a new iPad so I will have to further weigh my options considering the price of a new iPad that is also NOT expandable like the Fire 10. I think the fire 10 is a solid option for those who wouldn't miss youtube and other Google apps, for kids and for older folks who don't need all the bells and whistles. As an artist, I need more but I will still continue to use my 2021 Fire 10 and for youtube etc., my MacBook air M1 which I still love as I come upon the third anniversary. It does it ALL and does it really well.
How about the battery?
Great video!! Which one would you choose the CV or the CRV? All the best
