Excellent Promo Gift Card
on January 2, 2026
Posted by: hollywoodfrodo
Verified Purchase:Yes
Best Buy Promotional E-Gift cards are a great benefit to buying stuff when they are offered. They work just like a regular gift card and I've never had any problem using them or stacking them if I have a couple. It's a great extra perk sometimes offered by BB.

Great Gift Card for YouTube Premium Payments
on December 29, 2025
Posted by: hollywoodfrodo
Verified Purchase:Yes
I like to buy these whenever there is a promo to use to pay for my YouTube Premium Subscription. Never have any problems loading the credit into my Google account. And it's easy to then set my Google Play Credit as my default payment for YouTube Premium. So overall, works exactly as it I would expect.

Best for Security Cameras or DashCams
on December 29, 2025
Posted by: hollywoodfrodo
Verified Purchase:Yes
Great card priced well specifically for jobs that involve a lot of recording over such as with security cameras or dashcams. These cards by Samsung offer great longevity for these type of tasks and are the most recommended. Thankfully, they are also priced well when compared with other similar cards.

Great Streaming Device that's also portable
on December 12, 2025
Posted by: hollywoodfrodo
Verified Purchase:Yes
Super easy to set up and use. One of the best user interfaces for a streaming device. Love how small and easy this is to pack up and take with me on trips. And the fact that it supports both HDR and Dolby Vision is great. Also works great with WiFi even outside of my house on the TV in our gazebo. The remote is easy to use as well. Simple product that is well designed and works the way you'd expect it to.

Great, but not perfect
on July 21, 2025
Posted by: hollywoodfrodo
Verified Purchase:Yes
AirTags are great if you have an iPhone. Super easy to pair and setup and specify locations to ignore (like if you leave your bag at home which is okay.) My only complaint is you don't get notified quick enough if you leave something. Ideally, if I leave my wallet in a restaurant I would get notified by the time I walk out the door having a good amount of space between me and the wallet. But it doesn't work that way and you would likely not get notified until you're in your car and on the way down the road. That's better than nothing, but not ideal.

Excellent for Frequent Flying Couples
on August 16, 2024

Verified Purchase:Yes
Very simple device that works great and does what it says. Small and easy to take with you on flights. Fairly simple to pair with AirPods, Earbuds, or Bluetooth Headphones. Plug it in and like magic you get wireless sound. This one is particularly nice if you fly with someone most of the time so that you can watch something together if you want to since it will pair with two sets of headphones if you want it to. Overall, a great simple product that just works.

Pricey but Worth It!

Verified Purchase:Yes
This replaced a much older Dyson Cordless Vac and it has been a significant upgrade. Really love the extra battery power and the way it can change power levels on the fly to meet your need. The Fluffy Optic Cleaner Head is a real game changer! If you thought you had clean floors, just wait until you use this - that green light shows you just how much dust and dog hair are REALLY there. Also love all the extra accessories that came with this. Dyson's are expensive but for a good reason. You're not going to find another stick vac out there that competes with this.

Best electric shaver ever!
on December 29, 2023
Posted by: hollywoodfrodo
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is my 3rd Arc Shaver from Panasonic having previously owned the Arc2 and Arc3 shavers and my first time having a shaver with the cleaning system. Ever since my first Arc shaver, I've been sold on Panasonic making the absolute best electric shavers (which is all I've ever used since I was a teenager because I have an intense fear of razor blades). This Arc5 is an excellent upgrade from my Arc3. It makes shaving so easy with the individually flexing shaving blades and then the overall head that can be locked in place or allowed to move and adjust with the contours of your face and neck. I mean, so many other companies would have one or the other, but Panasonic builds there's with both! The handle is comfortable to hold. A single charge seems to last forever. The battery level indicator is clear. You can lock this thing for travel so it can't accidentally get turned on in your suitcase. It really is the PERFECT electric shaver. Then throw in the cleaning system and it's unbeatable. I love the cleaning system. It's easy to use and keeps my shaver cleaned and charged. Really the best shaver on the market!

Small on size, big on quality
on December 29, 2023
Posted by: hollywoodfrodo
Verified Purchase:Yes
I got this as a Christmas present for my spouse because he had mentioned that he wished he had an air fryer to use at work. I knew he didn't have much space there to store one so I was looking for something small and simple, but that would be big enough for him to air fry his morning breakfast sandwich or reheat something for lunch. He absolutely loves this! He said it's the perfect no-frills air fryer and that it does an excellent job and he loves how simple it is to use and how it's large enough for anything he needs but small enough to make it easy to store. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking for something like that.

Display and recharge your Fire HD 10 tablet with this Amazon show mode charging dock. The adjustable stand provides a convenient viewing position, and it comes with a USB cable and power adapter for versatile connectivity. The included case perfectly fits your tablet and is easy to attach and remove from this magnetic Amazon show mode charging dock.

Good idea but fails in execution
By APFLORES413 from Los Angeles
I love my Fire 10. Using Alexa on it has been a joy. The problem was, I was using the Amazon Folio Case and it is not ideal for certain table tops. So, in comes the Show Mode Dock for your Fire Tablet. I was intrigued at first and after using it for a week, I was really disappointed at the execution.
The design is great. You save room on your table top and the base is very sturdy for a tablet the size of the Fire 10. The shell that comes with the Show Mode can be used as another thin case when you decide to take your Fire in your hands.
Where I have issues is that there are tiny magnets at the bottom where you slide the shell onto the base. This is where it charges your Fire Tablet. It is also very easy to knock it off the charge. This happened a lot as everyone in my house would bump into the table it was resting on.
My biggest issue was that the Fire has a really bad battery life to begin with, having it constantly plugged into the Dock for charging would kill the battery even more. I noticed at least a 25% fast drain on my battery since I purchased this.
Again, I love the idea but not a good idea for your Fire Tablet. I recommend just using your tablet AS A TABLET.

This is not based on fact...
April 16, 2019
The comment "having it constantly plugged into the Dock for charging would kill the battery even more" is based on old school battery technology from 10 years ago. Today's Lithium Ion batteries actually do better staying charged than not and having the tablet constantly charging should have no affect on the overall battery life, at least more than 1-5% tops over the course of a couple of years.

Where to get replacement Aux to USB-C Cord for using case as Transmitter? Have tried many standard USC-C to Aux cords and they do not work and LG website doesn't have them and their customer service knows nothing about this cord.

Yes. That's how I use mine. Having the battery is a "bonus" for me if I want to take it somewhere else, but mostly it sets on my dresser plugged in 24/7.
