Our smallest-ever earbud just got harder to lose and even easier to love. Dime 2 is loaded with all the features that made Dime famous PLUS Tile finding technology. Habitual bud losers rejoice ~ Dime 2 has your back. We built Dime 2 with a small, efficient battery that cuts its carbon footprint to less than half that of other earbuds. It delivers 3.5 hours of listening time in the bud and 2 full charges in the case for a full 12 hours of battery life.

Lesson learned
on January 1, 2024
Posted by: VFXDude
No bass response, barely stay in ears, crap.
I guess if you’ve never had any wireless headphones before, you’d like the them.
Or maybe you work for Skull Candy?
These went into the trash and chalked up as a lesson learned.

Deep in the Appalachians, a group of hipster hikers decided to diverge off their trail in search of a legendary Civil War fort. That proved to be an unwise move, as it brought them into territory that a survivalist cult has laid claim to since the 1850s... and they don't have a lot of tolerance for visitors. Intense sequel/reboot for the fear franchise, written by original InchWrong TurnInch scribe Alan McElroy, stars Charlotte Vega, Adain Bradley, Emma Dumont, Dylan McTee, Daisy Head, Bill Sage, and Matthew Modine. AKA InchWrong Turn.Inch 109 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English

Easily the worst of the series
on March 19, 2021

Verified Purchase:Yes
I know they're calling it a reboot but it's just a money grab using the "Wrong Turn" franchise name.
Hands down the worst movie associated with said title and that's saying something.
Save your money and keep on looking.

See what Covid's done to us?

4 and 5 star ratings for anything new...
This movie was just bad. Half the actors didn't hit the marks, the storyline was stolen from 5 or so good movies and put together poorly. I could go on but it'll do well anyways.
People are starving for a good... new movie.
Feeding them this is like handing out condiments to people without food, just cruel.

While investigating a deadly swamp-born virus, Dr. Abby Arcane discovers a mysterious creature lurking in the marsh. As the beast disrupts nature and disturbs the peaceful town of Marais, Louisiana, some Thing in the swamp takes action to save the innocent. This set contains every episode from the series.

More please!

Wow, I've seen several iterations or attempts at a good Swamp Thing show/movie and it's been bad all the way...
Movie quality in a tv show, loving this all day.
The only downside is the writer seems a little busy trying to cram in other DC characters as we go (Blue Devil), but it's forgivable.

Still a great movie!

I love all big monster movies so this one was just a pleasant ride, a family film with adventure and they kept the visual bloodshed to a minimum...
the 4k edition is so clean on our screen and the sound so intense, I know we'll be watching this one again and again.

I love the MyBook product line and have never had issue before this. But Google it... this Type 3 MicroUSB stinks. It's intermittent, it's flawed, it disconnects randomly. NEVER again.

Even after all these years, this version of the Hulk still holds up and fills the space in your MCU collection.
Quality is amazing on our 4K set and excellent on our mobile devices as well.

It's Spielberg!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've never gotten tired of this character piece by Steven Spielberg and find it amazing what he was able to pull off in his storytelling with only practical effects and an odd control over our imaginations.
This one just makes me want a bigger tv and sound system, every time.

Troubled adolescent Brandon Breyer (Jackson A. Dunn) was finally tipped to the truth that his farmer parents (Elizabeth Banks, David Denman) withheld from him-that he possessed strange and superhuman abilities because he was a foundling from another world. Unfortunately, this young sociopath is less about truth, justice, and the American way than violently bending mankind to his will. Very dark spin on a very familiar pop mythos co-stars Matt Jones, Meredith Hagner, Becky Wahlstrom. 90 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

Seen it twice, and I'm watching it again
on June 15, 2020
Posted by: VFXDude
Verified Purchase:Yes
New take on an old familiar hero story...
but what if our hero grew up a little less perfectly?
Is the evil in him from birth or our we truly the sum of our experiences?
I'm not sure if I end up on his side or frightened for everyone but I do know that I want to watch it again to figure it out.
Well done.

Dear WDigital

Did I mention that I worked professionally as a network administrator and I'm fully aware of all the potential power issues...
it's your cabling.
I debugged and found it's consistently this type of connection that can have this type of failure.
Note that I also have one of your USB powered CostCo specials and it's junk too.
Same issue. Once I went out of bought another cable, they work.
No worries though. I've since bought new drives from another company and moved my data over without issue.
Thanks for caring enough to type of your rebuttal though. Always nice to see the industry hasn't lost it's sense of "hey, your fault, not my fault" right?
