Carlsen Wins Marathon Game To Even Match With Karjakin

GM Magnus Carlsen got to be Magnus Carlsen today.

He had tried to break down GM Sergey Karjakin with the Ruy Lopez and the Giuoco Piano in the 2016 World Championship. Today, he used a hybrid, but it was his continuous endgame edge that finally wore down the challenger after more than six hours.

With his opportunities to equalize the match score dwindling, Carlsen mustered pressure, then finally, his first full point. His win evened the match 5-5. There is still everything to play for with two classical games remaining.

The accumulation of many favorable positions finally paid dividends for the world champion. He wasn't perfect in the conversion, but he was good enough.

"It feels very good," Carlsen said, visibly much more ebullient than at any other point in the match. "It wasn't easy, but I made him break."

Longtime second GM Jon Ludvig Hammer, viewing from Norway, told Chess.com he had never seen Carlsen this happy before.

WINNER: HALO ROVER

BEST HOVERBOARDS | 2017

1ST PLACE / Halo Rover

THE GOOD
The Halo Rover is an absolute beast that is taking the hoverboard community by storm. Its 8.5 inch rugged non-inflatable tires are able to take on any terrain with ease and is easily the safest board to own. It is fully UL 2272 Certified which means no fire or issues with the board. The reviews from customers have been very positive. It includes an APP and Bluetooth. What more can we say, we all have fell in love with the Halo Rover.

THE BAD
 Zip, zilch, nada...

THE BOTTOM LINE
If you are looking for the safest and most reliable hoverboard it is the Halo Rover. It is fully UL 2272 certified and is the most durable of the bunch. Through our battery of tests the board we have concluded that this is the best quality board to be made to date and thus takes the Best Hoverboard Spot at #1.

2ND PLACE / Halo GO

THE GOOD
The Halo GO has made a name for itself as one of the most reliable and safest hoverboards on the market. It is fully UL2272 Safety Certified and has gone through a 156 point inspection test. They are enclosed with certified Samsung batteries in their hoverboards and include a 6 Month warranty. Halo GO has hauled in the best reviews online and that can be attrituted to their stellar customer service and satisfaction. The Halo GO is one of the few hoverboards today that include bluetooth allowing you to blast music to your board. Their sleek chrome designs and rubber protective padding are a majore plus that makes the Halo GO a safe buy

THE BAD
 The only ding to the Halo GO is that it doesn't include an APP like the Halo Rover.

THE BOTTOM LINE
They may be priced slightly higher than some models out there, but these are quality products, and one of the best hoverboards on the market, if not better. With a 10 mile ride range and hour charge time, you’ll never have to worry about having too much down time between rides. Through our hands on inspection, we found that every single Halo GO out their was made with quality parts and Samsung batteries. This could be the reason why we have never heard of a Halo GO to have any major issues and consumers are ensconced with the board. We have to agree with customers on this as we have ranked the Halo GO at #2 on our best hoverboard list.

3RD PLACE / Swagtron T3

THE GOOD
Swagtron is one of the most popular top hoverboard brands. There are a slew of celebrities who we've seen riding their hoverboards. For a while they were thought to be the best until the recent recall by the CPSC. That has forced Swagway to upgrade their rebrand to Swagtron. They do offer a wide variety of colors that will suit anyone currently looking to buy a hoverboard. Their new design is a head turner and is sure to please many eyes.

THE BAD
 While Swagtron has been rebranded we would recommend buyers to exercise some caution as to ensure they are not dealt with the same recall issues that faced before. This has got to be the biggest issues for them. These boards are UL certified but are not enclosed with Samsung batteries which pushes them to 3rd place.

THE BOTTOM LINE
While this companies includes bluetooth and does have app it still was faced with a recent recall. For this reason we must push Swagtron T3 to 3rd place in our list of top hoverboards.

4TH PLACE / Powerboard

THE GOOD
Powerboard is UL 2272 certified and one of the new and upcoming sellers on Amazon. It comes in 2 speed mode and a wide variety of colors.

THE BAD
 While we love the design and overall quality it fell in its ranking due to 2 reasons. It doesnt contain a Samsung Battery and is the new kid on the block. Once more reviews are established it will find itself to the list of the top hoverboards.

THE BOTTOM LINE
These are great hoverboards available at a decent price. Hoverboard reviews didn't show the Powerboard as being the best hoverboard and we have noticed that they did have a quit of few complaints. If you are looking to buy a hoverboard, but really don't want to spend a lot of money, this is a good board to purchase. 
 

5TH PLACE / Swagtron T1

THE GOOD
Much like the Swagtron T3 the T1 is built to last. It is not enclosed with bluetooth and an app but it is enclosed. It goes up to 8MPH and has a range up to 14 miles. It can hold a maximum weight up to 220lbs which ensure that it is made with a strong aluminum base.

THE BAD
As mentioned with its sister board the T1, it is not enclosed with a Samsung Battery and instead has a standard Chinese battery.

THE BOTTOM LINE
Is it great quality? Yes, but that quality doesn’t come with an assurance of having a warranty just in case you have concerns with the product. Although it may be one of the most popular boards it will never best the #1 hoverboard due to not being enclosed with samsung battery cells. 

What To Look For When Buying a Hoverboard

 

Battery

When it comes to searching for the right hoverboard start with the battery. Most of the lower end hoverboards are enclosed with cheap knock-off batteries that fail to operate the board properly. We at Best Reviews Online recommend to search for a hoverboard that has Certified Samsung or LG batteries. These batteries contain cells that contact heat and wont allow the battery pack to overheat at high temperatues. Few reputable hoverboard companies were judicious and spent extra dollars by building with quality Samsung Batteries.

Battery Cells & Quality

As consumers, our aim is to determine what peculiarities exist between models and brands that appear to be largely identical on the surface and sometimes sell at vastly different prices. Thus quality of hoverboards should be on the list. The search for hoverboards has become a difficult discovery in that it’s impossible to know exactly who is making what, which brands are in copycat mode and who is telling the truth. However, our recommendation is to first start with a company that has Certified Samsung Batteries. They uphold UL Certification standards and the extra battery seals protect the cells from any fire due to battery failure.

Warranty

We recommend to purchase a hoverboard from a company that doesnt shy away from providing a warranty. A 6 month warranty should be at play at the minimum to ensure you can still have technical assistance even months after your purchase. When looking to buy a hoverboard, make sure the warranty does cover most technicals issues an that might arise.

Not Recalled

It is an absolute must to now search for a board that is not on the recall list of the cpsc. While some of these boards were recalled initially most of these companies have gotten proper certificates and are now back on the market. It is important to note that UL has come out with a UL 2272 Certification for hoverboards so make sure to look out for hoverboards that are UL 2272 compliant.
