Nice to be back with PixelWatch!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Coming from a Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra. Wasn't a bad watch, but as a Pixel platform user (phone, buds) I really had to do a lot of research and hacking to get the health stats to work for me. I only went with it for the bigger clearer display, but the PW4 has done a great job of eliminating that as a factor. And since most of the hacks I used are soon to be obsolete, I felt it was time.
So nice to be back where everything just works seamlessly. The new display is crisp and easy to read, even in bright sunlight. Very happy with the battery life and feature set and it's so much more comfortable to wear 24/7 (sleep metrics are important to me and the PW4 does a better job IMHO).
The Best Buy experience was top notch (Bridgewater, NJ) and everyone at BB made the trade in and purchase experience wonderful from the moment I entered the store until I left. Watch was shipped NEXT DAY and arrived on time same day. Wouldn't go anywhere else!!

The perfect Pixel Tablet companion

Can't imagine why Google unbundled this from the Pixel Tablet. I can't imagine using mine without it - it's what makes it a standout. But they really need to rework the pricing. Given that it's only a medium range speaker and charger and a few magnets, they should be able to produce these at a lower price. That would encourage people to buy more than one - I know I'd happily add another dock for my bedroom at the right price. Otherwise, I'm quite happy with what it does and what features it adds to the tablet.

Went for a replacement & got an upgrade... wow!

Bought this after much consideration to replace a 4K HiSense 65" that started losing it's backlighting after 3 years of solid use. Did a lot of research online and reading reviews here and narrowed it down between this and another HiSense. Went into my favorite BB to see them cause you can only look at specs so much and pricing was almost identical.
After seeing the TCL I didn't even look at anything else; the picture was that impressive. And it looks even better in my home. I haven't adjusted ANY of the display settings and it just looks awesome out of the box.
It's crisp, with rich colors and inky black where it should be. The shadow details I've been noticing on replaying my 4k content is incredible to me.
I legit spent the first week doing nothing but re-watching all my favorite 4k movies and the difference between the TCL and my older HiSense was staggering. Of course, picture quality is subjective as everyone has differences in their vision, so I'd encourage you to go to your local BB and see for yourself what suits you best. I am extremely happy with my purchase and it came with the confidence that if I wasn't happy, BB would find a way to make it right.

Bought this a Brother color laser all in one that got killed by a power surge while doing some mains work. My fault, not Brother’s! Logic dictates not putting it on the UPS because of the large draw when it starts; never occurred to me to worry about the feed side… Otherwise, that color laser would be alive today.
In fact, before I bought this, I swapped in a 7+ year old Brother mono laser that sat idle for years and when I plugged it in and loaded the drivers, it output a quality test page. But with tax season coming I really needed a duplexing printer so I when I decided to buy, Brother was my first choice.
I opted to go with a mono laser, since I have a Brother ink jet AIO if I really need color printing. And it has an auto document feed for the scanner so I didn’t need that feature either. This allowed me to save a little cash but still get great performance and features to match my needs. And this model really fit the bill. It’s quiet, energy efficient and prints duplex pages quickly. The flatbed scanner is high quality and the copy feature makes it easy to use for a few quick copies.
Best of all, I know it will be with me for the long run. I’ve put the old mono back in storage – but I know it’ll be there in a pinch! I haven’t bought another brand of printers since I bought my first Brother and I think you’ll be as pleased as I am with this model.

Bought this a few weeks after purchasing the companion dryer. When my dryer failed, I knew I'd be looking at replacing the washer soon since the last washer was purchased at the same time the dryer that failed was. So when I looked at the dryer the sales person had me look over the companion washer - not to hard sell me but to educate and prepare me for making easier choices when I would replace the washer. I'm glad he did because it made it easy for me to make my purchase online when I was ready. The washer started acting up and the unit was on sale so the 'stars aligned', LOL And the online purchase and delivery scheduling was just as easy as the in person experience was.
This washer has a great capacity and is the first washer I've owned that didn't have a center spindle agitator. While I initially thought this might be a negative, I quickly learned that is it an real advantage. There's more room for clothes to move around and nothing gets tangled up, either. The panel has a few confusing options at first but I quickly got used to it after reading the manual (both the washer and dryer have well written manuals, BTW!).
I'm really happy with the way it cleans my laundry, including the spin cycle (no more soggy laundry) which aids in the drying efficiency. Plus it turns completely off at the end which means it's not slowly sucking electricity. I have power monitoring plugs on my washer/dryer and you might be surprised how it's always draining off just a little bit of juice 24 hours a day.
And btw, it looks darn nice next to its companion dryer. I love the clear lid too! Definitely would recommend both the washer and the dryer.

The contractors that BB uses are awesome and quick! I never worry about them trampling over my lawn or banging walls or door frames as they remove old appliances - they are super respectful of my property. Plus I have the peace of mind that my appliance's disposal is going to be properly handled. Well worth the small price in my opinion.

Then the LTE period is over can it be used as just WIFI
Yes, a Pixel Watch 4 with expired LTE service will still work perfectly fine, but it will function like the standard Wi-Fi model, relying on Bluetooth to stay connected to your phone for most features; you just lose the ability to make calls, get texts, or stream music independently when away from your phone. It will still tell time, run apps, track fitness, and use Google Assistant via your phone's connection.

Seems like this question was ignored, but can it be turned on via switch? To replace an existing flood light which operates by switch, don't want to use the app each time. Also, how easy to install replacing existing flood without motion detection?
1. You could turn it on and off with a switch, but when you power it off you will no longer get video or motion detection.
2. Replacing an existing floodlight with this one is very easy. Turn off power to your light. Unmount your old flood light and disconnect the wires. Using the included hook, hook the floodlight to the fixture to keep it in place while you connect the wires. Then mount it back up.

I'm older and like the wired versions. I read a response, and it states that the bulb can't be replaced on the floodlight. Is that correct? Help me understand.
