Haven't watched yet

Ignore this review. I haven't watched the film yet and am just reviewing it because BB bugged me too. I like Amy Adams and she got nominated for an Oscar for the role, so it can't be bad. And I like intriguing SciFi films, so I bought it when in the store.

Plastic, not metal
on April 8, 2017
Posted by: chezdude
from Hillsborough, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
It's not outrageously priced for a GoPro branded accessory, but there are better and cheaper ones online. It's all plastic, which isn't too bad given the frame on the go pro is plastic as well. It's lights and works, so can't ask for much more. Time will tell on how it holds up.
The little tripod is interesting. It's really small, for tabletop use. Not sure how well it would do in a stiff breeze.

More expensive than 3rd party - but good quality

Verified Purchase:Yes
Sometimes you are willing to pay a little more for something knowing it's good quality. That's the case here. You can cheaper ones online, but I wanted it now and the price wasn't way out of line. It works well with the hero 5 black. It's comfortable to hold. Can't comment on floating ability yet, but I have no reason to doubt GoPro.

Good, not great marvel film
on April 8, 2017
Posted by: chezdude
from Hillsborough, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
There are better marvel adaptations out there, but this does a good job of introducing the character. It's a little slow at times for a marvel flick, but moves better at the end. I'm not all that familiar with the character from the comics to say how faithful it is, but it's a good watch either way.

Quality, at a price

You can find cheaper ones, but I found this as an open box and needed it for work so picked it up. It works well and is well built. Can't say much more about it.

Officially licensed by Xbox, the Xbox One Charging Station eliminates the cost of replacement batteries. Keep your Xbox One wireless controllers* fully-charged and ready to game! Controller battery level is indicated on the screen, so there's no need to take your eyes off the action. Each Charging Station includes 2 charge-through battery doors and 2 rechargeable battery packs equipped with hours of gameplay. To charge, simply click controller down on the Charging Station and view LED light bars indicating charge level. When fully charged, click up to store. Focus on the game and not on the charge.

Does what it is supposed to
on February 5, 2017
Posted by: chezdude
from Hillsborough, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
Battery life seems pretty good, so no complaints there. The battery does are black, so if you have other color controllers, they won't match (if you care). Getting them seated to charge can be finicky, but the charging orators are nice. I'm not sure of the point in the spring loaded part, seems pointless to me as they only charge when in the down position.
Good price for the charger and batteries, before cheaper than OEM.

Good so far

Verified Purchase:Yes
Haven't put much time in, but so far it's been fun. The wife and mother it in local co-op mode, which was a big plus as most Xbox games are single player locally.
Ga!E play and action is good. The buttons can be a little complex at first depending on what you are coming from.

Works well with Win10
on February 5, 2017
Posted by: chezdude
from Hillsborough, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this as I didn't want tonnage to deal with the little receiver and breaking or losing it. So far it's worked very well with a Win10 Lenovo X1 Yoga. I can't comment on the battery life, but it's a month and going strong and I don't turn it off overnight or the weekends when I leave it at work. It's on the small side, so it you like big mice this isn't for you. But buttons and scroll wheel work well and it tracks well for a business mouse.

Great card at a good price

Verified Purchase:Yes
If you get this on sale, that is. It's more than capable of capturing FHD video. It may not be that good for 4k, depending on the bandwidth that the device writes at. Check the specs of your device and look for some sites online that review the actual speeds of various memory cards to be sure.
I trust SanDisk, especially when you get them from a reputable source like BB.

Excellent smart remote

Verified Purchase:Yes
I own 2 of these remotes. The small simple remote works well and is very configurable. The ability to control it with a smart devices usage said great as well. If I had anissue, it would be the limit on devices. I'm not sure why they do that, and it's not likely to affect most users, butifyouhave a complex HT setup, it's worth noting. they are still pushing out updates for this year's after it came out, which is nice.

Featuring a wireless subwoofer, this LG LAS551H soundbar enhances your home theater with 320W of powerful sound. Bluetooth and multiple inputs and outputs, including HDMI and USB ports, enable flexible connectivity to wired and wireless devices.
 

Surround setup?

I currently have a wired system. Does it make sense to use a soundbar like this one (I'm planning on purchasing an LG TV) along with my wired rear speakers to get a 5.1 experience?
Thanks.
If your rear surrounds are already wired, I'd say to go with a wired system. You will get more bang for your buck that way as you can get a powered sub that is a _lot_ more powerful than the one in this kit. While this isn't a bad kit, it's certainly not audiophile grade. You will always get better sound from a wired setup as it doesn't have to convert the sound to some compressed digital format to send to the speaker to then convert it back to analog to actually be played by the speakers.

My advice, if you can go wired, do that.
