There’s a lot to like about the Sceptre C248W-1920RN including very good image quality, impressive grayscale performance and a very reasonable price than most curved 24-inch monitors. It is a good choice for budget gaming, better still, it can double as a very able monitor for video watching. Throw in a sleek design, and you’ve got one of the best-looking mid-size monitors around.
There’s a lot to like about the NETGEAR Nighthawk R6900P Smart WiFi Router (AC1900), including its cool name, stealth design and excellent speeds on the 5GHz band as well as better Quality-of-Service (QoS). These features, along with the Nighthawk’s VP and NAS capability, offset the router’s slower speeds at the 2.4GHz band, longer reboot, and hum-hum bridge-mode configuration. Netgear’s Nighthawk R6900P earns our Editors’ Choice award for 802.11ac routers.
The iRobot Roomba 960 isn’t cheap, but you get value for all your money’s worth. It delivers better navigation than any other robot vacuums that use sensors alone, and the fact that it isn’t slowed by obstacles or attempts to climb over them counts for a lot.
The Asus ROG Zephyrus S GX701 (GX701GX-XS76) is a complicated one. It has a crisp display that looks great, has tons of speedy storage, and isn’t prohibitively heavy for anyone who wants a gaming laptop to tote around on daily commute.
The Brother HL-L3290CDW is a great printer, though the lack of an ADF and Ethernet make it a mixed bag of choices among color laser printers. For light-duty use, like copying or scanning a couple of pages at a time, you’d save a few dollars, but get the job done within the shortest time possible.
