Use the Google Smart Light Starter Kit to control the lights using just your voice. Set up in a snap: just plug in Google Home Mini, screw in the GE C-Life smart light bulb, and download the Google Home app to get started. Then just say "Hey Google" to dim, brighten, turn on and turn off the lights."

Doesn't work as I expected/ returning
on February 10, 2019
Posted by: RichNEPA
from Pennsylvania, USA
I purchased these lights with the expectation they can be set to turn on and off automatically at a preset time like 7 AM wake up time with lights shining in your eyes to wake you up). They do not. All you can do is say, "OK GOOGLE, turn on / off bedroom lights, or dim them". I can do that by myself thank you.

Not so great........

Believe me, it is a "renter" movie rather than a "buyer". Not what I was hoping it would be plot wise. Disappointed to say the least...wish it could be returned. It sucked is bottom line.

No Live Traffic information
By Rizz from New York
I was very excited about my new GPS but unfortunately I'm really disappointed today after using my device first time. I bought this device mainly for live traffic information as my previous garmin GPS did not have that feature. I prefer not using my cell phone and network data for navigation which drains phone battery as well especially on long routes. The reason I am very hurt today is that the only way I can get live traffic information in my new GPS is by using smartlink app through my phone.... then what is the meaning of publicizing that garmin can also provide live traffic updates and we have HD traffic receivers etc etc etc. When I tried to get live traffic information the following window popped up as shown in the image. My device says LMT which according to some reviewers mean that I don't need an extra reciever or special cable to get traffic information but contrary my device is found to be unable to get ang kind of traffic information without traffic receiver. Whats the point of having traffic enabled gps device if it actually extracts traffic information from your cellphone and display on its screen, Interesting fact??? I looked everywhere on you tube, best buy and garmin website but could not find any specific answers. Perhaps I also did not search well enough as well. But I believe it is also unfair that a product is being sold with the tag of live traffic information but in reality it might need an extra 70$ -100$ to serve that purpose in buying traffic reciever. I read in multiple reviews before buying, that LMT device means that it has internal traffic reciever so it doesn't need an extra reciever or cable. Perhaps my research was not good enough. But I hope my review will help other buyers to know this before purchasing this product as I couldn't find this information before buying and garmin product description and information is very vague about this feature.... On one page GPS 61 is enlisted in the device list of HD traffic capable devices but there is no clear information in product details that you have to buy extra cable or receiver to get that feature which means spending of 70-100$ extra after spending 300$, otherwise be ready to use your phone. What's the point of spending 300$ for dedicated new gps device with live traffic tag while it actually depends on your phone for navigation????

Glad you mentioend this Rizz and Garmin.

I was going to bu this model tomorrow, but since they do not include th e traffic cable, I am not. I have had previous Garmin GPS units with traffic, and the traffic antenna was always built right in to the power line. I would not not pay more for a traffic cable separately. Lost sale for you Garmin.

Damaged
By RenMal from Los Angeles
I ordered this ac online and it delivered in horrible condition, the box clearly had signs of poor handling as well water marks on the outter box. I immediately was in complete disappointment. I decided to try my luck and installed it. After turning it on there was no cold air producing. I returned it to best buy for a complete refund. I asked for a replacement and of course they were sold out. I am still without and ac till this day.

I always check out the AC to make sure it is working before I install it. They are heavy, and putting in and out is a hassle. As soon as it comes out of the box, Itest it.

Tv to heavy for plastic legs
By Dissatisfied
Came home excited with my tv, we installed it that evening, notice the legs where not good quality. Got it set up , all was ok until we heard a loud noise, the tv was on the floor shattered, one of the legs broke. Not only did the sound landing on the floor scared the lift out of us, we where just like shocked. I couldn't get no one in Best Buy to help me, only thing I could get was a refund for the extended warranty. Left completely with no tv and $351 lost. Never will buy anything again from Best Buy.

I think LG should give you a brand new replacement of the TV or a refund check as long as the event happened during the 1 year warranty period.

Legs
October 31, 2020
From reading the reviews on these TVs, it seems as if the plastic legs are a major issue. perhaps LG should do a "recall" and supply new and better legs for this model TV.

two broken TV's delivered
By golferboy67
Was told TV would be delivered on Saturday it arrived the following Thursday. Opened box large crack in back panel. Returned to store, had two wait an additional 8 days for new TV, opened box, multiple cracks on screen. Called Best Buy for hours with no answer. Curbside pick up made me go into the store, and I had to talk to 3 people before anyone helped. This is an upsetting experience for a senior citizen, who expected curbside pick up, during a pandemic.

Perhaps Samsung needs to pack there TVs with a lot more styrofoam on all sides to prevent damage during the delivery process.

Incompatible or broken

It is supposed to work with high content files. Like 4k camera pictures and video. It is priced accordingly. Well, this card was not able to recognize a sony A7IIs camera. A total waste of money. Very disappointed.

I wonder if this person formatted the memory card
December 10, 2020
I wonder if this person formatted the memory card in the camera? Every memory card I use in a device (especially a camera), the first thing to do is format it for the camera.

Optimize your smart home setup with this Wasserstein adjustable stand for the 2nd Gen Google Nest Hub. The stable, secure mount offers a solid and wobble-free grip, while the adjustable angle allows easy customization and provides flexibility. This easy-to-install Wasserstein adjustable stand fits seamlessly on desks, countertops and shelves for convenient viewing and integrates a cable management system for a clutter-free setup.
 

What are the tilt angles on this stand/ holder? I am wondering if it has a forward tilt angle and to what degree. Example, if you are using one for sleep sensing radar, if placed on a higher dresser, can it be tilted downward to better view the bed.

Once you download video to the module, what file is it saved in? Can you transfer that USB flash drive data to a Windows PC and be able to view it in 1080p, enlarge, etc.... using Windows rather than an Amazon app?

With Apple TV+, you can stream Apple Original series and films, including compelling dramas, groundbreaking documentaries, kids~ entertainment, and comedies~with new Apple Originals added every month.
 

I do not have an email with instructions or code. My receipt has a link to this page. How do I accept this digital gift of free three months of Apple TV+ ?

I never received the email or instructions or codes either. I called Best Buy customer service twice and emailed them on facebook messenger. This offer is time limited, and I still not have received the email/ codes/ instructions and it is almost a month later. Calls to Best Buy have fallen on deaf ears... they say "the master coder" has to take care of it. and never does. The way I see it is that I have 2 options.... return the item prior to January 15, 2022, or as I have done today, filed a dispute with credit card company because they did not deliver all the items in my shopping cart (i.e., the supposed to be free activation code and instructions, which is the terms and conditions of the same). I do not pay for what I do not receive. Other retailers had similar promotions going on for the same item, but with different streaming services. Now, after the holidays, I do not see it being offered. elsewhere. So I lode. if I lose, Best Buy loses as well.
