Massive Disappointment
on January 6, 2023
Posted by: JonS
Verified Purchase:Yes
Never had worse buyer's remorse. The specs looked good but it overheats with ease, shutting off automatically during updates, and my attempts to use it as a laptop (with a lap desk) led to screen flickering and hot to the touch keyboard. Unfortunately for me I was stubborn and never returned it when I should've so I'm stuck with it but my mistake doesn't have to be yours. Try something else.

Good Movie, Bad In-Store Experience
on September 3, 2021
Posted by: JonS
Verified Purchase:Yes
Movie itself is fine but the service in getting the movie sucked. Got a notice in the morning it was ready for pickup, arrived hours later and waited ten minutes for them to find it. Slipcover was covered in crud but that was the only copy and i didnt feel like arguing so i just gave the slipcase to them and took the movie home.

The USB-C to 3.5mm headphone jack adapter lets you connect devices that use a standard 3.5mm audio plug - like headphones or speakers - to your USB-C devices.

Adapts Okay, Lowers Sound Quality
on July 11, 2021

Does what is advertised at a cost of sound quality. Takes all the bass right out of it. I'll use it because it was cheap and I'm on a time crunch but it isn't great.

Packaging a Little TOO Snug

Absolutely love it but it's hard to get the cases out of the box. You gotta really pull and I've spilled all the steelbooks on the floor trying to get just one.

Cool Boxset with Some Quibbles

Great steelbooks, cardboard packaging/dividers leave a lot to be desired. 4K-only, no Blu-ray copies, which is strange but not terrible.

Looks great, poor HDMI port decisions
on June 19, 2021
Posted by: JonS
Verified Purchase:Yes
Best TV I've owned bar none picture quality-wise. Unfortunately if you have game consoles and a soundbar you'll have to sacrifice something as the ARC port is the same as the Dolby Vision-enabled one. Baffling choice there that limits its potential.

Buyer's Remorse
on June 19, 2021
Posted by: JonS
Verified Purchase:Yes
Sound is fine but it's a crapshoot getting both buds to connect, turning a planned 15 minute walk into a 10 minute walk due to trying to trick them into working like they're supposed to. Regret the purchase and should've returned them while i had the chance.

Best DVR Experience
on February 5, 2020
Posted by: JonS
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you're like me and refuse to get rid of cable despite SO MANY REASONS to do so, then you can't go wrong with the Tivo Edge. Fastest DVR I've ever used, great interface, really makes the cable experience better.
There are some drawbacks: sometimes the channel lineup is inaccurate and the DVR will consider episodes "New" even after they air resulting in multiple recordings, but once you figure the system out it rocks. I've always wanted a Tivo and this has been a great experience thus far.

Not Much of a Cover

Only covers the screen. Great stand but using it made me nervous to bring it out and about. Also way too expensive for what it is.

iPad mini is beloved for its size and capability. And now there are even more reasons to love it. The A12 Bionic chip with Neural Engine. A 7.9" Retina display with True Tone. And Apple Pencil support, so you can capture your biggest ideas, wherever they come to you.

Great All In One Tablet
on November 8, 2019
Posted by: JonS
Verified Purchase:Yes
First iPad I have ever owned and I regret taking this long to do so. Great screen, love the ecosystem. Only issues so far is it being just small enough to make reading magazines and comics an issue, and finding a good cover. But those can be overlooked.
