WISE BLACK FRIDAY PURCHASE
on December 27, 2019
Posted by: howardgee
Verified Purchase:Yes
One of Best Buy's Black Friday 2019 specials. Turns out to be a decent controller. I am an older gamer and I like the way it grips. I also like the color. To me it appears to be a bluish grey with black and grey highlights. To be honest, and as much as I am enjoying the controller, I would never have paid the retail price. So my recommendation is price based.

IT'S PAPER AND BETTER THAN SOME!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I find this multipurpose paper to be above average and compatible to HP Printers. I have used this paper for both ink jet and laser printers without a problem. Does it work as well on other brands of printers I cannot say.

PURCHASE THIS PRINTER AT YOUR OWN RISK!
on July 26, 2019
Posted by: howardgee
Verified Purchase:Yes
If I could give this printer no stars I would. I purchased this printer because the GEEK SQUAD found that my Windows 10 program in my new HP Computer was corrupted. Because of this they could not guarantee that my 5 year old ink jet printer was not affected. Best Buy had this model reduced because it was being replaced with a new model (m428fdw). It took me hours to this get this printer to work. In fact, I never was able to set it up wireless as it always caused a critical error. As I was getting ready to return it to Best Buy I discovered that you need to download "HP PRINT AND SCAN DOCTOR." This is downloaded a firmware upgrade which will corrected a major problem: whenever this printer goes into sleep mode it will go offline and needs to be rebooted. I still cannot use the wireless option but at least is stays on line. Luckily I took out an extended warranty as it may still have to be replaced.

"A 5 star knockout" as slipcover advertises
on May 28, 2019
Posted by: howardgee

Verified Purchase:Yes
For those BLACK HAWK DOWN lovers this is definitely the best it has ever looked or sound. A must have for 4K enthusiasts to show off your theater. Not a steel book collector so the slipcover edition was just fine. Both theatrical and extended versions in 4K. Highly Recommended.

Excellent 4K restoration
on May 28, 2019
Posted by: howardgee
from Pickerington, OH, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is not a review of the movie but rather a personal review of the 4k restoration. When Superman: The Movie was first made the green screen technology did not exist to correct the shift in colors. Hence, Superman's costume varied through the movie. For the 4k restoration Donner painstakingly supervised the color correcting of the problem areas and enhanced the audio. This is the best Superman has ever looked or sound. While the image is slightly sharper, it retains the soft film grain look of all previous formats.

Best tasting K-cup hot chocolate
on March 30, 2019
Posted by: howardgee
from Pickerington, OH, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
In my opinion this is the best tasting hot chocolate. The 2 reasons why it gave it 4 stars instead of 5, first this is my personal opinion and second making hot chocolate in a k-cup is so much more costly than just buying a large package of Swiss Miss that it becomes an extravagant pleasure. One additional comment select a smaller cup size on your Keurig, because the smaller the cup the richer the chocolate it will taste.

Very helpful in navigating the world of Anthem

Verified Purchase:Yes
First the price is right and Best Buy has already had it on sale. Second there is so much to do in the World of Anthem you need something to help you navigate. Sure you can constantly check you tube but I like having something physical in hand.

Beautiful graphics but grinding is unbearable
on March 25, 2019
Posted by: howardgee
from Pickerington, OH, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
First of all stay away from the Legend of Dawn edition it's a ripoff. The unique weapon is no longer useful after a few hours of game play and you can buy better looking armor with the coins you earn through the in game merchant. This has to be one of the most stunning XBOX games I have ever played. But the amount of game play it takes to level up your character will become unbearable. Many of my friends that left Destiny 2 have returned due to the absolutely poor drops in Anthem. I played just a few days ago for 4 hours on Grand Master 1 and did not get anything I already had gotten a dozen times or more. Even on the higher Grand Master settings the rare drops are few and far between. Some posts say it may take 10-20 hours of game play to get an item you need. In short, if you love stunning graphics this is a must own. But if you hate grinding run away from this game!

Latest edition is almost 3 years old!
on September 3, 2018
Posted by: howardgee
from Pickerington, OH, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Our 5 year old laptop had to be replaced. Office 2013 was installed in the old computer. However according to Geek Squad it was for that computer only and could not be transferred to the new one. So we had to buy the latest edition. This is August 2018. So is the latest edition 2019, 2018 or even 2017. NO IT'S 2016. Which means that more than likely it will be revised in the next few months. Am I the only one that finds this to be ridiculous in a tech world that is constantly changing to offer a must have product that is three years old? No one would buy a smart phone that is 3 years old so why would I want computer software that is 3 years old?

Saved our data from not working laptop
on September 3, 2018
Posted by: howardgee
from Pickerington, OH, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
When our 5 year old HP Envy laptop stopped working, Geek Squad diagnosed that it was due to a bloated internal battery that was about "to explode." Due to its age, we decided to purchase a new computer. While we were not happy to incur this unexpected expense we were glad that the Geek Squad was able to retrieve the data and transfer it to the new computer. PLEASE TAKE NOTE TO THE REASON WE WERE EXTREMELY UNHAPPY. WE WERE PAYING FOR AN EXTENDED WARRANTY WHICH WE FOUND OUT ON THAT DAY, WAS FOR GEEK SQUAD SOFTWARE SERVICES ONLY AND NOT FOR ANY HARDWARE (WHICH WE THOUGHT WAS ALSO COVERED). THE COMPUTER SALES MANAGER SAW HOW UNHAPPY WE WERE AND TRIED TO HELP US OUT BY TAKING $100 OFF A NEW COMPUTER. IN SUMMARY, WE FOUND THE GEEK SQUAD SERVICE TO BE EXCELLENT BUT DISCOVERED THAT THEIR EXTENDED WARRANTIES ARE OVERPRICED AND VERY DECEPTIVE AS TO WHAT THEY COVER.

whats the difference between this and the older version?? i have the older version on 82inch q90 from cable box and ps5. would this give me any improvement??
OLED at the top of its game. From the big game to being in the game, no detail goes unseen. With advanced gaming technology like NVIDIA G-SYNC, you'll crush the competition. Self-lit pixels emit their own light for perfect black, intense color and stunning picture~paired with our best processor for even better picture quality. Only on OLED.
Does C1 support 5.1 surround sound pass-through?
Yes, so long as it has 4K HDMI eARC technology. I am using a DENON AVR-S750H receiver (2019 model). My old receiver did not have HDMI eARC capability so I had to buy a new receiver for the pass-through to work. Without the new receiver I could only get sound through my TV's speakers.
