Protect your phone with this clear OtterBox Symmetry Series case for Samsung Galaxy Note10. The slim but rugged construction guards against scratches and impacts, and the raised front bezel guards the display against accidental drops. This OtterBox Symmetry Series case adds minimal bulk and offers easy access to buttons and ports.

Perfect case to show off new phone
on November 23, 2019

Verified Purchase:Yes
Having just acquired a brand new Note 10 it was paramount to protect it, but I also wanted to show off the colors on the back of it. The clear symmetry case became the obvious choice, the name I know and trust and protection that goes along with it.

This double feature contains both films in the John Wick series. In John Wick, a retired assassin finds himself seeking vengeance on a sadistic mobster; in John Wick 2, John Wick reluctantly accepts an assignment to take out the sister of an Italian gangster.

I have long been a fan of Keanu Reeves, but this pair of movies really shows his diversity. It's guns blazing, story line driven, hardcore revenge. No one can stop him. Highly recommended

Best picture I've had at home to date

Verified Purchase:Yes
After making careful decisions between a Vizio P series, an LG IQ, and this Samsung TV I decided to go with this one. Given the sales ongoing all were about the same price point, but in the end this NU8000 took the gold because of consumer reviews. It was higher rated by not paid endorsement participating reviewers and I can see why. My 4k images just look better on this tv than my previous Vizio D series, for good reason. I was a little concerned spending the money, but it's a trusted brand for a reason.

One of the best wireless gaming headsets

Verified Purchase:Yes
After using various headsets, both wired and wireless, with my PlayStation 4 pro, a gaming buddy of mine in Atlanta got the A50s for Christmas and told me about how wonderful they were. The microphone clarity when we game together was very noticeably better than what he was using previously. I decided to take the chance and spend the money on them.
First impressions:
The headset fit like a dream. The size adjusters on each side are very sturdy and don't slip. The headband is very comfortable. My head is on the larger side and where most stereo headsets cause discomfort after and hour or so of wear, these did not. I downloaded the Astro software on my computer which allowed me to make some changes to the programmable switch on the headset (preset equalizer options), even download user presets from their forums, as well as adjusting default settings for when the headset first gets powered on.
I did end up buying the A50 Mod kit, mostly for the noise canceling it promised and I was very pleased with that as well.
If you're anything like me, an Audiophile of sorts, but are concerned for the price versus the quality, take the plunge. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Best router I've owned yet

Verified Purchase:Yes
I had a 3 y/o TP-Link Wi-Fi router that was starting to show signs of failure, and friends of mine recommended this mesh system, I couldn't be happier to have made the purchase. I caught the other on sale before black Friday and ended up getting a three node setup when I genuinely only needed two, but the price was right and it works amazing. Much faster Wi-Fi speeds then my last router.

Is the modem included? So this is or is not a modem router combo?

This is a Wi-Fi mesh router system only, no modem.

With the three pack system, does the wifi signal daisy chain from each other? My base would be at one end of my house, and I am thinking that I will need to place one sat. unit in the middle of the house, and the second sat. at the far end.

Because it is a mesh system the satellites can mesh into each other just as the router would to the first one. The other option, if available, would be to put the router in the middle of the house and a satellite at each end. In either case you should still get full coverage.

We have ethernet access lines mounted in the ceiling. Can these be ceiling mounted and are they POE?

Unfortunately the answer to both parts of your question are no. They recommend using a separate POE switch for such devices that require it, or an inline could do the trick to conserve space. Mounting options... None really. But MacGyver could figure something out, I bet you should if you had to.
