Good Steelbook
on June 25, 2022
Posted by: Frank
Verified Purchase:Yes
Yeah I don't know why this movie got so much hate. I appreciate that it's different than other MCU properties. I look forward to the MCU going more in depth about some of the things that occurred in this movie - like the dead celestial just chillin for everyone to see.
Otherwise the Steelbook itself is fine - doesn't blow me away. However if you're an MCU fan, it's worth owning this Steelbook I think. Good enough :-)

Great Movie - Quality Steelbook
on June 25, 2022
Posted by: Frank
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've seen this movie several times over the years. I actually purchased the standard blu-ray years ago. However when I saw this Steelbook go up, I had to own it. It looks better in person. The design is cool, plus it comes with a plastic protective slipcover. The print on the discs themselves is very cool as well - at first I thought the little price sticker was real! I tried to peel it off and quickly realized it was part of the design. Very cool and unique.

Good Movie/Display Rack, Especially for Collectors
on June 25, 2022
Posted by: Frank
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is my second time I've purchased one of these media racks. I'll admit it's a tad flimsy - it definitely needs to be attached to the wall. This being said this is the best relatively inexpensive movie storage/display rack you can buy. I own lots of Steelbooks and other collectible movie sets, along with a few funko-pops and other collectibles - this display rack fits the bill.
Just a tip -- don't plan on filling this rack up to the absolute max it that it can hold. Leave some room to properly display some of your collectible items. I think this helps your collection, along with rack, to look more aesthetically pleasing in your space. Initially when I bought my first one, I packed it full of every blu-ray, DVD, and video game I owned. Displayed in my living room it kind of became an eyesore. I ended up removing some of the movies I didn't feel needed displaying (old video games and DVDs) so I could make space to properly display some of my finer additions. Think of it as a display rack instead of a storage cabinet. I also added a couple overhead lights to the very top of the unit so you can see this thing in action at night. Cheers!

Classic Movie - Cool Steelbook
on June 25, 2022
Posted by: Frank
Verified Purchase:Yes
This was one of my favorites as a kid. Couldn't not own this collectible Steelbook. I'll admit the outer-shell design doesn't blow me away, but the interior looks cool, along with the print on the discs themselves. So overall, good package -- the sum of its parts makes this a good buy. Recommend if you're a fan of this movie.

Awesome Movie
on June 25, 2022
Posted by: Frank
Verified Purchase:Yes
Love this movie. I've watched it several times over the years, so figured it was only right to own it on Steelbook. This is one of those generic designs that's been used for other movies, however I think it still looks cool.

Really like this movie. As far as the Steelbook design goes, it's fine -- mid-tier. If you're a fan of the movie and/or a Steelbook collector, you'll want to have this one in your collection.

Awesome Steelbook
on June 25, 2022
Posted by: Frank
Verified Purchase:Yes
Obviously this movie rules - everyone knows this already. The design of this Steelbook is just awesome - especially with the addition of the slip-cover. I've collected a lot of Steelbooks over the years - I have exactly 122 at the moment. This one is easily in my top 5. Very impressed.

Sound quality = good; Comfort = not so good
on June 25, 2022
Posted by: Frank
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had been looking forward to purchasing a set of these headphones for a while as a replacement for my old Airpods 2, which are defective (mic doesn't really work anymore). I liked the idea of wing tip things to help hold these in my ear. For my current Airpods I attach some aftermarket tips every time I use them to help keep them in place when I exercise. So naturally, I was very much looking forward to a set of headphones that would fit this bill right out of the box. Unfortunately the wing tip was the downfall of these headphones. I read lots of reviews before purchasing these, and in retrospect I'm surprised I didn't see more people complaining about how uncomfortable the tips are. Sitting in my ear for more than 45 mins or so, it's painful (relatively) - just uncomfortable the way they push up on my ear. I tried to get used to it, but I just couldn't handle it - especially not at this price point. Ended up returning them. Since I'm on it, the only other thing I'll complain about is the charging situation - the lack of wireless charging is a blatant omission, and also the fact that it requires a USB-C charging interface. I'm in the Apple ecosystem, and no other device I own - Apple or not - requires USB-C.
Some positives though: they sound great, noise-canceling is good too. I like the grey color as well -- very unique.
I'm honestly pretty disappointed in these - I really wanted to like them - they were on my wish list for a long time. To be fair, I don't think the design is a build quality issue - these particular headphones just dont work well for my ears comfort-wise. Cheers.

Great fitness tracker
on July 11, 2020
Posted by: Frank
Verified Purchase:Yes
Firstly, I will admit this watch is a bit overpriced, however it works flawlessly, and it feels expensive. This is my first Apple Watch, having come from a Fitbit Charge 2. While I wasn’t unhappy with the Fitbit, the Apple Watch gives you so much more control over every day activities like calendar, messages, music control, etc. I also appreciate the workout app and the detail I get from the workouts. During this weird time (Covid), I decided I wanted to take better care of myself, and this watch/fitness tracker has absolutely helped me along the way. You won’t be disappointed.

This will make a fine addition to my collection
on May 1, 2020
Posted by: Frank
Verified Purchase:Yes
Seriously though. For the sale price, this set is a steal. First sci-fi series I ever loved. Packaging is neat — it’s minimalist, but high quality. Not over the top - just right. And because the description for these things on Best Buy can be lacking — this includes both The Plan and Razor, not Blood and Chrome though. Dew it.

Cell phone batteries never last long enough, and it makes phone charging throughout the day a chore. Trying to find and connect the right cable in the right direction can be frustrating. The Insignia NS-MWPC10KTP 10 W Qi Certified Wireless Charging Pad for Android/iPhone (2 Pack) makes charging fast and easy. Just place your smartphone, tablet or other Qi-compatible device on the pad when you need extra power. Its wireless, low-profile design eliminates cumbersome cords and offers versatile placement options. The LED indicator shows the charge status of your device, and a 4 ft. charge cable and USB adapter power your charging pad. This 2-pack lets you place wireless chargers wherever you need them most.
 

Can this charge apple watch 7?

I do not believe so, no. Apple Watch can likely only be charged with the included MagSafe charger. This will charge iPhone and AirPods that have wireless charging capability.

Power up Qi-enabled smartphone devices with this 10W Insignia wireless charging pad. It comes with a 3-foot microUSB cable and a color-changing LED status indicator.
 

My iPhone XR gets warm when charging on this pad. Is that normal?

I have an XR as well. It is normal for the phone to get warm during wireless charging, yes. I'm not sure the exact science behind it, but everything I’ve read states this is standard for Qi chargers.
