Decent retro Joystick
on April 30, 2022
Posted by: OldGuy
Verified Purchase:Yes
As a basic joystick it functions fine and it has a fairly high-quality feel to it.
I was hoping to use the joysticks twisting paddle function on PC games like Tempest and breakout, but it is not working at the moment. There are complicated ways to make it work I believe, but they are out of my wheelhouse. But the basic joystick and buttons work fine with PC in 360 mode. Windows does recognize the paddle function so I'm sure there will be updates to make the twisting paddle function work with PC games on Steam etc eventually.

I saw this in theaters, and it was better than I expected!
I new it was mostly special effects eye candy, but the story wasn't bad and I like martial art-like movies as well...
The 3D is good as well, though most movies don't pop out of the screen so much as go back into it anymore...

Decent Budget BD Player

I just needed a basic player to replace my Xbox One's Player, and this did the trick. It doesn't have a huge library of streaming apps, but it's good enough for me. Also no wifi, but I prefer the hardwire ethernet anyway to get the best streaming.

Loving it so far!
I wanted a series X fo course but decided I don't game enough to justify the extra $200 and the fact that you can't find a series X and I had $85 in Best Buy rewards pushed me towards the Series S.
I bought an inexpensive Blu-ray player to go with it and I'm good to go!
I converted 3 years of Xbox live Gold to Game Pass Ultimate for free and my gaming experience is incredible...

I went down a rabbit hole with these 1:24 scale Diecast cars for a while. This one is especially fun with its illuminated parts and the fact that the wheels can turn in for hover mode. Build quality is great and detail is very good as well.

Starts up very fast!
I purchased this for my parents because their 1o year old Blu-ray player was getting very slow.
Plays Blu-rays and DVDs as would be expected.
May be a little light in the amount of streaming apps available...

There is conflicting information in the description about Verizon compatibility. Will this phone work on Verizon?
Yes, I got it to work with my Pre-Paid Verizon plan.
I bought this 12-1-2019 to use with my Verizon Pre-Paid plan.
I got it to work very easily, but not with the help of the Verizon owned Verizon store I went to (they tried it and couldn't get it to work, and said it wasn't compatible).
I was going to return the phone to Best Buy, but I decided to put the SIM card in the slot designed for a micro SD card using the adapter that BLU includes with the phone.
When I put the SIM card in the slot designed for a micro SD card using the adapter, the phone immediately gave me a message that it was connected to the Verizon Network, and the phone work fine. I can make and receive texts and calls and use the internet of course.
So in order for the BLU - Vivo XI+ with 64GB Memory Cell Phone (Unlocked) to work on the Verison Network you have to put the SIM card in the Micro SD slot using the SIM card adapter provided with the phone. So the down side is you can't add a SD card in this instance.
