1st time using them, will change all my connection

I read the reviews on BestBuy and other websites first. Sounds easy enough to convert current wire connections to the banana plugs. Much easier now to plug the speaker wire into the back of my receiver. I changed out all my connections to the banana plugs.

Perfect gauge wire to extend my 5.1 speakers

Verified Purchase:Yes
I used this speaker wire to extend the length of my 5.1 surround sound speakers. It was easy to use and worked perfectly. My only suggestion would be to purchase speaker wire with a distinctive red/black color. This product was all one color.

Easy to set up, but didn't work

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have an Onkyo 5.1 receiver and I wanted to make the rear speakers wireless. Setting up the kit was easy and the bluetooth signal connected easily. But no sound. I adjusted everything I possibly could, but no sound whatsoever. Bestbuy accepted the return without question and quickly issued a refund.

Best laptop I've purchased so far. Fully loaded.
on December 31, 2017
Posted by: JMT3
from Brentwood, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
The HP Envy is the best laptop I've purchased so far. It came with Intel's 8th Gen Core I7 chip, 1 tb of storage and blazing fast processor. The screen is virtually edge-to-edge and the quality makes viewing pictures, videos or just browsing great to look at. The Bang & Olufsen speakers are awesome. I like that they're on the top part of the keyboard rather than underneath; so you can hear them much better without turning up the volume.
Fast and easy set up. Once you load all the updates to Windows 10, especially the latest update; the start up, facial recognition and program speeds increase significantly.
The keyboard keys are spaced just right and they're easy to use. I don't use the 10-keypad much, but for those who do, you have one.
I download RevoUninstaller to remove the bloatware like Norton and other software I don't need. There's not a lot of bloatware like other brand named laptops, but the program take it all out.
I like the tablet function (turning the screen all the way back around) and used the touchscreen as well. The touchscreen is available to use either in laptop or tablet modes. Either way, it's fast and very intuitive to use. I've played Asphalt 8 and other racing games in tablet mode and it works just fine. Although the screen is larger and a bit bulkier to use for games, the picture, color and clarify are outstanding. You get use to it very quickly.
It's easy to cast any screen to my 4k TV. A nice feature when you have guest over and you want to share your pictures.
The HP Envy is a definite "I'll buy it a again" recommendation. Enjoy!

The best value for the money. Great TV
on January 23, 2017
Posted by: JMT3
Verified Purchase:Yes
I did a lot of research before I purchased my Vizio. It had all the features
and things I was looking for. Bestbuy had it in stock, delivered it 8am a
few days later and I set it up in no time at all. I drive my Amazon and Apple TV and my 5.1 Onkyo surround sound system. The tv quickly recognized every device and had no problem playing them as expected.
My neighbor was so impressed with the picture quality, he bought one a few days later.
I'm so pleased with Vizio I'll add a 45 inch tv to my office.
Better than paying for the next competitors higher price for the same features.

Chromecast: The 1st & best way to start streaming
on December 9, 2016
Posted by: JMT3
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've had Chromecast for over a year now. I can stream from my pc, laptop and ipad; all without a problem. Easy to set up. I use it to stream movies, YouTube video and even my Internet page (e.g. Google search, Amazon, etc.).
I just bought one for my millennial daughter...and she loves it! She no longer has to HDMI her laptop to her tv or watch movies on her ipad.
At $35.00, you get way more value with this than other streaming devices. Pair it with Chromecast audio and you can stream music almost from any source.

Your household demands a lot from your home network. With this Linksys router, you can depend on a strong Wi-Fi connection as you work and play online, even when everyone is using a different device. Plus, you can control the router from anywhere with the Smart Wi-Fi app.

Easy to set up! Awesome range!
on October 7, 2016
Posted by: JMT3
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this router to replace an older model Linksys model.
I found it at Best Buy right away and on sale!
It was so easy to set up. I followed the 2 lines of instructions and the router did the rest. It picked up all of my hardwired and wireless devices.
I alloted the .5gz band to my laptop, pc, phones and ipads. I used the 2.5gz for the tv, DirecTv, AppleTv and AmazonFireStick.
They all fired up and were online in a few seconds.
I've had it for about a month now and no problems what so ever.
I'd highly recommend the Linksys - AC1200 Dual-band Wi-fi Router to anyone who has multiple devices that needs a strong signal and range in a two story home. It's a good price point for this level of speed, range and features.

Will I be able to use my wireless hp printer with this laptop?

Yes. I have an HP all in one printer and it works quite well.
You can go to the HP site, find your printer on the support page and download the drivers and support program directly.
Then turn on your printer's wireless feature and find it via the laptops Settings-Devices-Download Printer feature.
Another way is to connect your printer directly to your laptop and let it find and connect.

What is the 4GB Memory-16GB cMMC Flash memory referring to? If everything my kids do in Google Classroom is in the "cloud" what is the benefit of 4 vs. 16GB?

Speed. The 'gb' is in part about the boot up speed to handle the system functions. I have 1 terabyte of storage on the HP Envy, yet I store almost all of my work on Google Drive.
The 'gb' speed helps me get there and move about faster. The Intel I7 helps me with the speed to move about in a program or game.
P.S. SSD's help with faster start ups, yet my HP Envy (which doesn't have one) starts up quite fast on it's own.

is there a external cd\dvd drive that is compatible for this chromebook?

I have a Samsung external dvd/cd drive and it works well with the HP Envy.
Plug the external drive into the laptop's usb port, let the system find and download the drivers and you're ready to go.
An option would be to go to the external drive's website, find the drivers and support program and download that first.

I just bought an Insignia "USB to VGA adapter" but I can not get this laptop to extend the display to my larger monitor. Any advice on home to extend my display onto a bigger monitor?

I'm not sure the USB connection will work on most current model tvs. Most now have HDMI connections.
You can use Chromecast. It connects to your TV's HDMI and you can access it via your laptop wirelessly. The Chrome browser has a built in 'cast' option in the settings menu.
Again, this is assuming your tv has an HDMI port.

Does this laptop run games pretty smoothly?

Yes. I can't address whether it plays Call of Duty like games well, but I play Asphalt 8, Star Wars, Mario, Tomb Raider and various boardgames; which the HP Envy handles quite well. Picture quality is awesome, there is no lag time or latency and it's quite fast.
