Nice upgrade from Pixel Watch (original)
on January 9, 2026

Verified Purchase:Yes
I just upgraded from my original Pixel Watch (1st gen). The screen on this is very bright and the battery life is amazing. I regularly get 2 full days even using the always on display. It also charges very fast. I'll sometime throw it on the charger before I hop in the shower and it'll be fully charged by the time I'm getting dressed.

Lenovo Idea Tab Plus is designed to fit your style and power your study. With a thin, lightweight build and a choice of three fresh colors, this tablet feels personal from the start. The 12.1" display with 800nits HBM brightness and 96% DCI-P3 color keeps everything sharp and vibrant, even outdoors. AI-powered study tools and the responsive Lenovo Tab Pen help elevate focus and make note-taking feel smooth and natural.

I use this to play youtube guitar lesson videos while playing along. The speakers here are surprisingly loud for a tablet and I've been very happy with the screen and audio.

A million years ago I used to use my Top Gun laser disc, yes laser disc, to demo this cool new thing called surround sound. Now, many years later, I had to have this in 4K and with upgraded audio. Still a great demo disc!

The best bedroom Smart Clock just got even better. The Lenovo Smart Clock Gen 2 with Wireless Charging Dock keeps your nightstand clutter free. Charge up to two additional devices at once: your phone (using the wireless dock) and another accessory, like a smart watch (using the USB port). The 4~ color touchscreen showcases the time, weather and your family photos with a choice of customizable clock faces or check in on your smart cameras feeds before bed. Enhanced with a built-in nightlight when docked, the light is just bright enough to illuminate your way without waking your partner. With multiroom audio, you can add your Lenovo Smart Clock Gen 2 to a speaker group and play media across multiple devices and rooms.

Nice, but don't buy it if you own a Pixel 7 Pro

Cool product, nice features, GREAT price. So why one star????? Because it doesn't support wireless charging for my Pixel 7 Pro phone. Had to return it. Read online that the same thing happened last year with the Pixel 6's and *eventually* a patch was released. Wasn't gonna wait.

Love these. Upgraded from Pixel Bud A-Series primarily for the noise canceling. Sound great. Could be slightly louder, but google is probably protecting me from myself.

This is compact but heavy (in a good way because they pack a lot of battery capacity into a small package). Charges two devices at same time if necessary. And charges reasonably quickly itself. Happy with purchase.

Great product, easy to install
on March 18, 2022
Posted by: Kevin
Verified Purchase:Yes
This took about 5 minutes to install in my PS5, with 4 minutes of that spent trying to figure out how to get the PS5 case off. Just check YouTube for instructions.
After installing, you just reboot your PS5 and it recognizes the drive. I just wish the 4TB NVMe drives weren't so expensive, because at 100GB for a large game, even 2TB will fill up in a few yrs.
Oh... and hats off to BestBuy because I bought and installed this, then a few weeks later the price dropped by $50. I chatted with customer service online, and they price matched to themselves no questions asked and credited my CC for the $50. Well done.

4 out of 5Mostly awesome. Possibly one show stopper.
By Kevin
Love ALMOST everything about this TV. Setup, picture, build quality, built in apps, ability to play wide array of video formats from USB, etc.
However there is one issue that could be a showstopper.
I play a fair amount of PS4 on the TV, and it will periodically blink the screen off for a short period. Maybe 1/2 second. Not a problem for strategy type games but could cause issues with action games. I can't tell for sure, but when it comes back on after the flash, the contrast *appears* to be different. Maybe it's struggling with HDR data on some games or the way the PS4 sends it.
I've updated the TV to current level and rebooted. I haven't tried an exhaustive list of video settings to determine where the problem is, but it seems to occur regardless of Picture setting (calibrated, vivid, game, etc.).
Hopefully Vizio support sees this and is able to find a product fix to issue in the next update. Otherwise, this may have to go back.

UPDATE: The sync / flashing problem I encountered was being caused by an old HDMI cable that obviously could not keep up with the throughput. Swapped it out with a new high speed cable and the problem went away! 5 stars now!

I just updated to an xbox one x. Is there a specific HDMI port I should use for Gameplay? I can see the Xbox home screen fine, but when I enter a game the screen goes green jumps betweem HDR/HDR10. Did I miss a setting? No manual was provided w/ TV.
Are you using a high end, high speed HDMI cable? Or the one you used with your old TV? I was having all kinds of problems with my PS4 on this TV til I replaced my HDMI cable. Didn't think that could matter that much but it sure did for me... completely solved my problem.
