Ps You have your photos for the cleartype-on and cleartype-off switched.
And not sure why youd rate the G7 and the G8 with the same text clarity since there is a filter on the G8
Thanks for the response! (and for anyone else reading this in the future, 1) I did not find a noticeable reduction in actuation testing between the g502’s and the newer g502x’s, contrary to testing, but thats likely impacted by age of the mice.
What did make a huge difference for me was to drill a hole and add some round rare earth magnets to the bottom of the mouse, then superglue magnets on the top, and added magnets to get as low of actuation force while still reliably releasing the mouse switch. I’ve been able to get them down to ~15g of force on a g604!
Q: Any idea if the difference between the midea 50 and 35pint cube dehumidifiers is the compressor, or just the fans, or both? They seem to have almost the same dimensions/weight. I’ve got a MAD50PS1QWT myself.
This was an incredible read. And now you’ve got me wondering about modifying my midea cube dehumidifer to pick fan speed based on home assistant’s dew point calculations, or see how I could add variable fan control.
(I’m in puerto rico, so it’s super humid, and I’ve got a bunch of blue tooth temp sensors all feeding back to my HA install, so if you ever want help testing, let me know!)
Help me better understand:
Due to loud ac noise and being in the tropics, I live in noise canceling headphones. It’s not an exaggeration to say I wear them 95% of my waking day. I’m not listening to music - simply using them to reduce background noise.
Frequency analysis shows a peak at 60hz, and a much stronger peak at 120hz.
I’ve extensively tested NC700,Sony WH-1000XM5, Airpod Max’s, and Bose QC Ultras. I tested the Sony WH-1000XM4 for a smaller period of time. I tried 3M peltor earmuffs as well.
The non bose options consistently perform significantly worse than Bose. At one point I lost my NC700’s on a plane, bought the XM5’s because most reviews said they had better noise canceling. I tried them for a few months, Then bought a pair of Bose Ultra’s, and there is a night and day difference.
But when I look at the graphs, the Sonys usually beat the Bose.
ps. Any idea how the NC700’s compare to the other Bose options in the 60-120hz range? I don’t know if 1.6 vs 1.7 benches are directly comparable, and I have not had a chance to compare the Bose head to head vs other Bose headsets. Looking at the Bose Ultra review, It seems to indicate that you had tested them On the 1.6 bench, however they no longer show up when I’m looking for them on the 1.6 graph
Thanks for this, it’s amazing to see this sort of testing being done on actuation data.
My mouse finger hurts from too much clicking, so anydata I can use to help reduce that pain is incredibly valuable.
One request: can you include some of the data as numbers, not just graphs? I like graphs for detail, but if you put numbers then we can add them as a column for the table and sort accordingly.
Also would be interested in tests on some of the weirder mice for accessibility reasons - ala Elastos M4 https://amzn.to/3MQD5FI

Can you warn people that the G8 and other samsungs only support ddc control over hdmi, not DP - so you cant control dimming or other settings :(
Just got bit by this hard, after buying this monitor on your advice. More info and some workarounds - https://old.reddit.com/r/ultrawidemasterrace/comments/17hsgm3/successful_ddc_input_switching_on_samsung_odyssey/

There doesn’t seem to be any way to use the rating table to show all neckband headphones
