The Joy-Con Comfort Grip transforms the left and right Joy-Con into a single comfortable video game controller for Nintendo Switch. The ergonomic rubber grips keep your palms happy and your fingers from cramping during those long play sessions. Simply slide each Joy-Con Controller down the rails until they click, which allows the player indicator lights to shine through the center panel. Plus, the Comfort Grip stands up on its own, so you can display it next to your Nintendo Switch Dock.

Perfect for new middle schooler this year.

Perfect for my daughter who starts MS this year and her school is BYOD since the referendum failed. Thankfully I got this open box in "excellent" condition and it has been just that. Best part is I can link this to the Bark software we got on her phone, so we can monitor/protect her from stuff she should not see or be doing. All other Chromebooks that were sub $200 were only 4gb of ram and 64gb of memory. This beast doubles both of those. So we struck gold on the open box price. She loves the white color too.

For those looking for the best in the latest television technologies, the U8H should be a top contender. The most exciting 2022 upgrade is Mini-LED. With Mini-LEDs that are 50x smaller than traditional LED lights, local dimming and contrast control reproduce incredible black and white levels within the same scene like never before in the series. The U8H is now compatible with the Wifi 6e router protocol. Streaming from the wide selection of Google TV apps is now easier and smoother when connected to a dedicated router channel that won~t be competing with other connected devices on the same router. For gamers, the U8H now comes equipped with Dolby Vision Gaming and FreeSync Premium Pro for enhanced gaming picture contrast and even smoother, tear-free motion. And lastly, the U8H now comes with a 2-year warranty and is available in a 75~ screen size. 2021 was a huge year for the Hisense U8H series and with so many upgrades, 2022 looks to be just as promising..

Just because the brand is thought to be a low end TV by LG, Samsung and Sony snobs, doesn't mean they cant knock it out of the park and best those brands in this class and even some in the higher class. I am a bit of a Vizio fanboy as I feel I get a lot for the money with their top end TV's and will never spend $3k+ on a TV. I saw a NON BIASED tech review of this on Rtings.com (who is my go-to for all tech reviews on HT equipment) and they were right. This does NOT disappoint in any way. We have an open floor plan living room/kitchen/dining, so the room gets nice and bright during the day. This TV cuts through any reflections our old Vizio M series would sometimes struggle with. This is our daily use TV as we have a separate home theater for movies and gaming. So I cant speak to the gaming aspect of this TV. If they come out with an 85", I may have to think long and hard for our theater if we ever replace our Vizio PQX. But for an everyday TV show TV, it is fantastic. The colors are vibrant and very pleasing to our eyes. We don't care for the soap opera effect so we turn of all the motion blur correction settings. The picture is crisp, bright and looks beautiful. We have a soundbar/sub setup so cant really speak to the sound either. Let's face it, a TV is for visual enjoyment, not audio. This is a mid range (price wise) TV with premium picture. Go to Rtings.com and check it out yourself as it beats everything in its class and even some of the higher end TV's. Hisense will be on my radar going forward without a doubt.

The specs for this WD_Black SN850 1TB SSD are the exact same as the other WD_Black SN850 1TB SSD that is "PS5 Certified". That one just has a pretty blue light instead of the pretty red light of this one. SAVE YOUR MONEY and just get this one.

Absolutely wonderful. I like the more zoomed in over the shoulder angle. Looks gorgeous on PS5. There is so much to explore. I'm Workin my way through story mode first, then I will go back for the open world stuff. Humor is great, which is to be expected. Love couch co-op!!! I wish more games had this.

Nice case VERY POOR shipping protection
on April 8, 2022
Posted by: Fertacrit
Verified Purchase:Yes
Like it. So due to that, I rate it highly But they way it was shipped was HORRIBLE, and is only worth a half star. It was just placed in a box and the only shipping protection was a few large shipping bubbles. No, shrink wrap, cardboard... nothing to protect the surface of the Steelbook. So during shipping, the case slid around the inside of the box and got all scratched up. It was free and still better than the traditional case, but c'mon...that doesn't mean they should've just thrown it in a box without protection. Very lazy.

Did you update the firmware? Also there is a Samsung APP called SmartThings it is alot more robust than the remote. Once I used the App to adjust the sound....HOLY COW it sounds beautiful. I have vaulted cielings so we dont get full sound of the Atmos, but it is a clear soundbar and the Sub hits low without it being a muddy boomy sound. It compliments the sound bar vs over powers it. There are modes in the app like space fit and voice enhance that really help out our open concept living room/kitchen. Update the firmware and download the app. Hopefully you will like this set up after tweaking the EQ and other settings

Not as impressive as I hoped. Volume weak….bass weak….does not immerse our family room. Would only recommend in a small room (less than ~400 sqft). Also - struggles to keep sync/Bluetooth connected to multiple devices…so frustrating to use daily.

Download the Samsung SmartThings APP. There are a lot of settings you can change to your liking. It sounds fantastic. Also a firmware update through the APP wouldn't be a bad idea if you haven't updated it at all

I'm lookin to expand PS5 memory. So other than being "licensed by PS5" and having a blue LED instead of red. I don't see any difference with the 1 TB WDBAPZ0010BNC that is currently less expensive. Am I missing something?

Does bass sounds better than Bose qc35ii?
Honestly, go to a BB store and listen for yourself. It is completely subjective, every person hears differently. What may be perfect for you, will be too much or not enough to someone else. The app for these are great and does have an EQ you can adjust to your liking (and update firmware)

I have had the Sony Sony - 1000X since 2017 and use them almost daily. I am interested in the WH-1000XM3 but concerned about the number of reported pairs breaking. Is this a known design issue and if so is it being fixed. Thanks
The design is fine. Of the ones that are breaking, I just wonder how careless or rough people are with them. I read one review where they were upset they broke after falling asleep with them on. Well...duh. I have the XM2 and now the XM3, and both are in great shape, because I treat them as a $300 [air of headphones should be treated.

Does your tv have "ARC"? If so try to run HDMI from TV ARC to soundbar ARC and 4K player HDMI to "HDMI input" on sound bar. Set soundbar to ARC input. Reboot everything. Also double check that digital audio out signal form both TV and player are set to Bitstream. Otherwise Google knows all, or look on AVS forums (home theater forum) or post your question there.

Where does the sub-woofer need to sit? Can it sit in the back with the small speakers so there are not cables run all over the floor? If it has to sit in the front it seems you would have speaker wires running all over the place.
LFE or "Subs" are non directional . Normal speakers sound is directional and should be pointed towards the listening field. (which is why you can hear the low boom of car stereos in someone else's car, but cant really hear the actual music/lyrics) But Subs can honestly be placed anywhere, although alot of people will place them in corners to maximize the sound. But with a sub this size, it isn't necessary to do so.
