A field trip to Europe with his classmates was supposed to provide Peter Parker (Tom Holland) with a well-earned respite from his superhero alter-ego of Spider-Man. But when he's recruited by superspy Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), Spidey is soon back on the job and teaming up with the InchMysterioInch-us Quentin Beck (Jake Gyllenhaal)-apparently a hero from an alternate universe-for a dangerous mission that may not be what it appears. Zendaya, Jon Favreau, Marisa Tomei co-star in this fun-filled Marvel sequel.

I really like this movie - the way it covers Europe and its inclusion of local music makes it a really fun movie. For those who have been fortunate enough to have seen a little of Europe, the film will bring back fond memories.

Better than advertised!

Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
This task lamp is actually better than advertised! Fully charged I have operated it for over 5 hours when set to minimum brightness - and that is more than adequate for most situations, with the lamp directly above the material illuminated. I find it extremely useful because it is easily moved from one location to another for whatever the need is - such as the kitchen table for tax returns, or my computer table to better illuminate some manual. I recommend it!

Outdoor photographers will want this camera!
on December 5, 2021
Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have lost two camera to weather. One simply because the humidity killed it. One simply because of a little dust in the air. This had till now severely limited my pursuit of photography outdoors. This camera is a little miracle! It's weatherization allows one to use it in most outdoor situations without having to take great pains to protect it from the weather, or other adverse conditions experienced outdoors. I don't need any contraptions to protect it - it simply hangs from my neck and is easy to operate. The camera body fits my hand easily, and provides easy access to all controls. The lens provided (which is also weatherized) is excellent for the broad range of situations I encounter outdoors. This camera truly is a little miracle for those who wish to expand their skills in outdoor photography. I have attached 4 sample photos - be aware that each had to be sized down to meet the size constraints of the website. One is a shot of a cardinal high up on a tree top. It was taken at max zoom, handheld. Another is of a pileated woodpecker that I was able to get closer to. It too was taken at max zoom, handheld. The dual stabilization does a fantastic job. Another shot is of the near total eclipse of the moon on 19 Nov 2021, at maximum extinction. It was taken at max zoom, handheld, at below freezing temperatures. Finally is a picture of a dramatic sunrise, taken at mid zoom, handheld.
This camera has opened up a whole new world of photography for me. I highly recommend it!

The Philips PH805 headphones give you control over what you hear and what you don~t, no matter what the day brings you. Enjoy your favorite songs in Hi-Res Audio during your morning workout in wireless freedom. Switch to Google assistant to check your flight information with a touch, and then enjoy your flight in silence by activating noise canceling. And enjoy your videos in high quality sound once you get to the hotel. One set of headphones can now cover all of your needs. With the PH805, you control what you hear and what you don~t hear. A tap to the ear-cup will activate noise cancelation, so you can be enveloped in a shroud of silence when you need to concentrate or rest. If you want to turn the volume down on the world but still hear louder sounds like someone speaking to you, simply activate Awareness Mode with another tap. The PH805 comes with Google Assistant, which allows you to manage your life on the move, without taking out your phone. Just touch the headband to activate it. Open your calendar, read notifications from your phone, call or send messages to friends, or check the weather simply by asking Google Assistant. The PH805 is also a quality headphone set that delivers detailed, high resolution sound, which you can use as your go-to headphones for home or on the go entertainment. Hi-Res Audio means that they are capable of playing back lossless audio at a higher sample rate than most headphones and CDs when connected to a high-res source. The benefits of the PH805 last for a full 30 hours, making them an ideal solution for every situation you find yourself in throughout the day (and night). You get up to 30 hours of play time (or talk time) with noise canceling off, or 25 hours of use with it on. If you need an extra 2 to 6 hours of battery life, 5 to 15 minutes of charging will be enough. The Philips PH805 has you covered. And when you are finally through using the Philips PH805s, they fold right up into a compact travel case, making them convenient to take with you wherever you go.

A good wireless headphones at a budget price
on January 25, 2021
Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a set of noise-cancelling, wireless headphones that has the most important qualities of its much more expensive competition. But it does miss some of the features of those headsets. Its pros are: it has good quality sound; it has good battery life; it has good bluetooth range; it connects to sources well; it is comfortable; it has a nice case. Its one most obvious fault is that it comes with only one EQ setting. That setting provides pretty flat response across the spectrum -- it works well for vocals, instrumental, classical, pop, operetta, opera. I find it also works well with tv programs - if there is any lag it is imperceptible to me. If you are looking for a set of wireless headphones that are of good quality, but can't justify paying a high price, these are a good choice.

Get a workout while sitting down with the Cubii Jr. Seated Elliptical. This compact elliptical machine has an ergonomic design to reduce joint stress and an assortment of tools to help customize a workout based on individual health and fitness needs, including eight resistance levels to help adjust intensity to appropriate and challenging levels for each user. This machine, which is made to work quietly, does require some light assembly (it comes with a tool to attach the pedals).

This Cubii is excellent for getting some exercise regularly during the very cold and icy winters of Minnesota. It is a quality product that will last a very long time. It is whisper quiet, and does not dominate a room - making it great in a modestly sized apartment. I recommend it highly.

Excellent gaming headset!

Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
This headset has very good audio! I have tested it on my Xbox One X console, my S7 Edge cell phone, and on my desktop computer. It has good audio with the mic, but the mic needs to be positioned close to your mouth. It is a very comfortable headset! It is a solidly made headset, and looks sharp but not garish. I recommend it highly!

Excellent speakers for apartment dwellers!
on October 24, 2020
Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
These are excellent speakers for my vintage stereo system. My 45 year old Kenwood KR-2400 receiver/amplifier is rated at just 17W/channel, but is well matched to these new speakers and sounds great. It provides plenty of volume for my modestly sized apartment living room with these speakers. I got a pair of Rockville stands to put some distance above the floor, and provide some acoustic isolation (important in an apartment complex).

Battery charge doesn’t last
By MariaC
Doesn’t hold charge for very long. But the quality of the picture is great . Fast connection. The only problem was my daughter used it for school and she would have to constantly charge the lap top
Adjust power and display settiings
November 14, 2023
Your problem might be solved by adjusting the power and display settings. For example, lower the brightness setting for the display. Also, shorten the time before the screen goes blank if there is no activity.

HO Pavilion — caveat emptor
By MichaelB
Thought I was buying an exact copy of the laptop I had when I ordered it online. Took it out of the box and it was NOT the same. My fault for trusting HP. The old HP Pavillion had a backlit keyboard and a good touchpad, which the replacement doesnt. Also, it seems to jump randomly to different cells when I am working in a spreadsheet. On the plus side, more storage and lower price point.
I recommend you test drive HP Pavillions rather than buy them online, because you dont know what you are going to get online
Different variant
November 14, 2023
Good points! After doing some online research I learned that large chains like Best Buy often have a variant of a device that is slightly different to what is described on the manufacturer's website. Sometimes it might have some additional feature, and sometimes it will be missing some feature. You will sometimes find that the product id listed on the seller's website does not appear on the manufacturer's website - which is an indicator of a special variant for that seller.

Soldered RAM
By JustinA
It didn’t say that the RAM was soldered in the laptop. I couldn’t use a recently bought ram into it. The sellers said that I can upgrade it but maybe they didn’t know that the ram was soldered. Overall its good just disappointed by the non upgradable RAM
Good point
November 14, 2023
You made a good point. I had to do some searching to learn that the RAM was not upgradeable. However, I also learned that HP installed the RAM in an optimal way, by installing two identical 4GB chips that run in parallel. This is far better than installing one 8GB chip.

Decent laptop, decent price.
By Squarehard
The laptop is a good one and does just about anything basic you will need it for.
If you're buying for just standard use like browsing, streaming, or other typical tasks, this will be more than enough to help support that.
The laptop itself is also pretty light, and good for travel.
While I'm not a fan of touchscreens, it's a nice additional option to have for those who prefer to utilize that feature.
One thing is that the storage itself is very low, so you wouldn't want to get this laptop for any major multimedia use. Storing music and photos will probably be fine, to a point, but videos and larger HD images will probably fill up the storage on this quite fast.
Overall, decent unit, nothing fancy, but seems reliable overall.
November 18, 2023
My sister recently got this laptop and I got her a little button usb memory stick to increase her storage. Be sure to plug it into the fast usb port (blue) on the laptop. Here is the item to consider - it has a great Black Friday deal right now:

Christmas Gift Too Early to Tell
By Colleen
So far seems like a good computer. I bought as Christmas present for my Mom, so time will tell. I set it up for her and only thing I’m struggling a little with is the Microsoft 11S version. I’m not clear if I still need separate virus protection or not, and in S mode I can’t download the free security suite offered by her internet provider because it’s not a Microsoft application. I’m hoping this will be good enough for her to check emails and do banking.
November 18, 2023
With the laptop in S mode, and running the included Windows Defender, Microsoft says the machine is well protected. My sister is in a similar situation - and I am advising her to let it be as it is for now.

A lot of features for the price
By smstz
This was a great deal when I bought it. Bought it for my mother who is elderly and enjoys watching videos on her phone. She very much enjoys the big 15 inch screen compared to her phone. Also, this laptop comes with a touchscreen which makes it very easy to use even for someone who never uses a computer. It is quick enough and has enough memory for her to store all her photos. Its not the lightest laptop, but that okay. Overall I would recommend this laptop for someone looking for everyday use like internet browsing, video streaming, etc.
Possibility for adding storage
November 21, 2023
One very easy and convenient way to add storage is to get a tiny button drive and plug it into one of the fast usb ports on the laptop. An example of such a drive can be found here:

Good Substitute for PC
By HyoJn
I bought this laptop a bit impulsively since I needed a new one for school with a camera and good enough battery. It definitely does the job, the only drawbacks being 720p camera, Windows 11 off the bat, no privacy shutter and bad speaker quality. For the speaker/sound- don't get me wrong it's not the worst, but definitely not the best, as the audio seems to come from the bottom of the laptop which makes the sounds become muffled in almost any position. Apart from these small quality of life issues it handles fine, seems sturdy, good battery, and has decent space. Additionally, I play videogames on this such as, Rainbow Six Siege, PayDay 2, Sims, etc. which run fairly fine besides the fan getting hot of course. I give it a 8/10 since it serves as a substitute for an actual desktop and don't think I'll be getting rid of it anytime soon.
Bottom firing speakers
November 23, 2023
The speakers for this laptop are bottom firing. These kind of speakers work best when the laptop sits on a hard surface, so the sound waves can bounce off that surface better and yield better and louder sound.

Battle friends and foes with the Sony PlayStation 4 Pro console. Its 1TB capacity lets you store plenty of games without an external hard drive, and the dual-shock controller improves your hands-on gaming experience. See enemies in clear, vibrant detail with the included HDMI cable of the Sony PlayStation 4 Pro console.
 

Will new ps4 pro consoles ever be back in stock? I worry that the fall debut of the new ps5 may spell the end of production for the ps4 pro.

Can you program a wattage limit? I can’t have an appliances exceed 1000 watts where I live

The wattage used increases with the set temperature, and also with the speed of the fan (which can't be set).

Does this item have a 3 prong plug? I need one as i will use it at work and need 3 prong to be compliant

It has a polarized two-prong plug, ie, one prong is larger than the other. It can be plugged in only one way. The outlet on the wall must permit the use of such a plug.

Does the refurbished t7 work as good as a new t7?

I purchased two of these refurbished drives. After properly initializing and formatting one of them, it appears to work as well as a new drive. This was not true for the second drive - I struggled to get it to work, and then found that 7% of the sectors of the drive were bad. It now appears to be working, but I less confidence in it.

Does the external SSD come with a USB-C cable? I’m not sure if I have one.

It should come with two cables. One a usb c to c, and the second a usb c to a. Mine came in a little box "hidden" behind the drive. However, you need to test them with a drive known to be good. I found 3 of the 4 cables I received with two of these drives to be defective.

I just purchased this external ssd and tried to use it for the first time. It will not show up on my computer anywhere, except on the "eject" tray. Why can't my new laptop see or open it the file location?

I suspect that it needs to be initialized and then formatted - operations you can do from disk management. However, it could also be a bad cable. I had a similar experience with this refurbished drive.
