Great Inner display and Multi-tasking is crazy goo
on September 29, 2022
Posted by: MarkH
Verified Purchase:Yes
Wow, the Z Fold4 5G 1tb is amazing...I bought the z fold2 2yrs ago and it is still running like new so I kept it and I'm totally satisfied with the Z Fold4...the newer cpu,faster memory and AMAZINGLY MEMORIZING Dynamic AMOLED inner 7.6inch screen is so crisp and colorful along with being brighter is perfect...the battery life as been great with the newer Snapdragon 8gen+1 cpu and Multi-tasking is still crazy awesome..I do like the wider front outter display but i wish it was still long as my z fold 2 outter display so it would make the inner display 8inch..the under display camera dissappears when watching videos our doing everyday tasks and my Spigen air skin case fits nice and tight with the new design of the frame bezels...i got the free Samsung case and s-pen since i pre ordered but I'm not of user of the s-pen so i can't comment on that...but so far everything else as been exceptional...the screen protector for the inner display is the best one yet for the Z Fold line up i wish it wasn't glaring..
One last thing I did my Z Fold4 1tb for $1899 with Bestbuy price match they did on 9.19.22..

Powered by 5G Wi-Fi and 256QAM technology, the 802.11ac chipset gives the RT-AC65 faster wireless speeds than N technology. At 2.4 GHz, it reaches 450 Mbps, while on the 5GHz band it blazes to 1300 Mbps. The upgraded bandwidth has the higher capacity you need to increase Wi-Fi enjoyment at home. With notebooks, desktops, pads, and smartphones now all Wi-Fi-reliant, it's time to upgrade to the next generation to expand you connectivity now and in the future.

Watch the big game and feel like you're a part of the action with this 82-inch Samsung Smart TV. Its four HDMI inputs let you connect gaming consoles and A/V accessories, and its slim bezel provides the maximum amount of viewing real estate. This Samsung Smart TV has a 4K resolution for a picture that's detailed and crisp.

Great set ruined by severe ghosting/motion blur...
By GadgetQueen
Quantum Dot adds alot of WOW factor. Very bright and vibrant set, great smart features. Now for the deal killer.. the 82" panel suffers from severe motion blur on moving objects, especially visible on high contrast/solid color backgrounds. For example, Ice Hockey, Snowboarding, Basketball, Animated shows, and video games... all have horrible ghost trails on moving objects against white/solid backgrounds. It's absolutely horrible... my research online seems to indicate problem is limited to the 82" panel, so look elsewhere if you are looking at that size. When I contacted Samsung, they said this was accepted and normal for this set. And so, despite it's beauty and the great deal I got, this set is going back. Shame on Samsung for lack of quality control on this panel!

Are sure about the mdl

Are you sure your not talking about the q8fn and not the q6fn...?
The reason I ask is I upgraded from the q6fn to the q8fn and the the q8fn had the exact same issue’s as you wrote about in your review..
Needless to say I went back to the 82” q6fn which DID NOT or does not have the issue’s you mention in your review...

Detect motion from up to 30 feet away with this Kuna Maximus Answer dual-cam video doorbell. The 1080p HDR top camera lets you see who's approaching your door from multiple angles, while a 720p bottom camera eliminates blind spots to maximize security. This Kuna Maximus Answer dual-cam video doorbell features a built-in microphone with two-way talk support for smooth communication with visitors.

Go with another brand.
By Ramxsx
There is a long delay when the doorbell is pressed to when you are alerted on the app. Also a long delay when speaking to the person outside. What's worse is they say it works with Google Assistant. You can only control the light. I have the Google Home Max. You cannot view the live feed on it. It makes it useless for my parents since they don't use apps on their phone. You're better off with the Nest or Ring doorbell.

My Works Great..5 stars..
January 13, 2020
My Maximus Answer dual cam video Doorbell works great thur the iphone app, I have no need to use thur the Google home max..I connected mine on my 5GHZ wifi and get instance notifications instance live view and the doorbell chime also rings instantaneously when the button is pushed..as far as the two way audio there is about a half sec delay but thats the case with most video doorbell cams..You can’t beat the dual cam feature with the top cam being a 1080p hdr cam and they pre recorded messages playing when motion is detected which can prevent a crime from happen..the people detection is spot on and you get about 10sec’s of pre video recording so you don’t miss anything before or after motion is detected....I also like that I can watch the live video feed as long as I want with the iphone app..the only thing it does not do is record both sides of the 2way conversation on video clips..but that can be fixed with a firmware update..

Everything you could ask for in a TV times two! I know the OLEDs are said to have a somewhat better picture, but I have zero complaints about this QLED. I do wish it had more inputs, but the reality is most will find it to have plenty...

TV is great. Best Buy sucks
By DukeSweden
Picture quality is great, it usually takes about a week for the screen to get really tuned in.
My problem is with Best Buy. I bought a Samsung 85" 8K tv less than 2 years ago. It crapped out on me. I'm on with customer support right now to get it repaired. I've been passed to 5 different "specialists", they tell me I canceled my warranty which is a lie. $3500 for a paperweight!!

Stream media, play games online, download files, and do it all at once on multiple devices. This ASUS router will keep everyone in the house connected without interruption. Plus, you can control your home network from anywhere with the ASUS router app.
 

Will this cover more than 3 devices? And how far does it actually reach?

Yes the Asus AC1900 router will cover more then 3 devices...Fyi it has a Dual core processor and 256 meg of ddr3 memory so its like a mini computer..I currently have over 10 devices connected to it in a 1900 square foot area..
