A good update to the iPad
on January 8, 2021
Posted by: pgwiley
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this as a gift for my wife to replace her old iPad Mini, and so far it seems great. I have an iPad that is about 3 years old, but this one is noticeably better and faster.

Easy set-up, and works well
on December 13, 2020
Posted by: pgwiley
Verified Purchase:Yes
Easy to set up, and so far seems to work as expected. I opted for the wired connection but need to get a longer wire so I can place the extender in a better location, but so far it has improved the WiFi signal in my basement quite well.

Solid static TV mount
on November 20, 2020
Posted by: pgwiley
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a solid, basic static TV mount. I used it to mount an older, 50" plasma TV, and the mount is plenty strong to carry the weight. Straightforward instructions and it seems solid and surprisingly well-made, considering the low price.

Writer/director Taika Waititi (director of THOR RAGNAROK and HUNT FOR THE WILDERPEOPLE) brings his signature style of humor and pathos to his latest film, JOJO RABBIT, a World War II satire that follows a lonely German boy (Roman Griffin Davis as Jojo) whose world view is turned upside down when he discovers his single mother (Scarlett Johansson) is hiding a young Jewish girl (Thomasin McKenzie) in their attic. In spite of his idiotic imaginary friend, Adolf Hitler (Waititi), Jojo confronts his blind nationalism.

Favorite movie from 2019
on September 16, 2020
Posted by: pgwiley
Verified Purchase:Yes
I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. A weird, quirky take on Germany in WWII, with some surprisingly poignant moments. Taiki Waititi deserves tons of credit for not only writing and directing, but also his hilarious portrayal of H, but the young actors are great, as are ScarJo & Sam Rockwell.

Introducing Nintendo Switch, the new home video game system from Nintendo. In addition to providing single and multiplayer thrills at home, the Nintendo Switch system can be taken on the go so players can enjoy a full home console experience anytime, anywhere. The mobility of a handheld is now added to the power of a home gaming system, with unprecedented new play styles brought to life by the two new Joy-Con controllers.PLAY ANYWHEREAt home the system rests in the Nintendo Switch dock, which lets you play with family and friends on a TV in the comfort of your living room.By simply lifting Nintendo Switch from the dock at any time, the system instantly transitions to handheld mode, and the same great gaming experience that was being enjoyed at home now travels with you. The portability of Nintendo Switch is enhanced by its 6.2-inch screen, which displays bright, high-definition gameplay at the park, on an airplane, in a car, or at a friend's apartment.Nintendo Switch comes with two Joy-Con that can each act as a standalone controller with an analog stick, a full complement of face and shoulder buttons, built in motion-sensing technology and new HD Rumble. They can be inserted into a Joy-Con grip accessory to be used like a traditional controller, held comfortably in each hand for independent left and right motion controls, or shared between two players for instant multiplayer gaming in front of the TV or out on the go.This bundle includes the Nintendo Switch console and Nintendo Switch dock in black, and left and right Joy~Con controllers in a contrasting gray. It also includes all the extras you need to get started.

A solid, 5-button ergonomic mouse
on July 17, 2020
Posted by: pgwiley
Verified Purchase:Yes
My old Microsoft ergonomic mouse started acting funny after years of nearly every day use (and occasional accidental floor drops) at my office. This one seems like a nice, solid replacement so far. The forward and back buttons are now on the left side, near the thumb slot, which will take a little getting used to but seems like a better idea in the long run.

One of the best movies ever made
on June 12, 2020
Posted by: pgwiley
Verified Purchase:Yes
Seriously, this movie is one of the best movies ever made. It is a lighthearted parody of fairy tales, romcoms, adventure/action movies, love stories, you name it. It's got fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles. Some of the most memorable lines in movie history, and a soundtrack by Mark Knopfler. One of my family's favorites

Great sounding speakers with Bluetooth!
on June 12, 2020
Posted by: pgwiley
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought these to use for playing music from my phone or iPad, and they work pretty well. You have to turn them to Bluetooth and allow it to connect to your device each time you turn them on, but other than that they are pretty easy to use and sound great.

Keep the charge going, no matter where you are. The PwrUp Qi Magnet Mount offers a new way to charge your Qi-compliant smartphones. The 10w certified Qi charger will allow your phone to charge at the fastest speed possible. This mount features a strong magnet that will hold your device securely while on the road. For easy one-handed operation, you simply attach the metal bars to the back of your phone and you~re ready to go. You can adjust the height of optimal viewing by sliding the device holder up/down or vertical/horizontal. The suction cup is made with our Temporbond material, which allows you to mount it to smooth or textured surfaces. If your mount ever becomes ~un-sticky~, you can clean the suction cup with warm, soapy water and let it air dry. You can easily attach and remove the mount at any time and is transferrable between vehicles. There is an optional vent bracket with a stabilizer bar included, giving you multiple ways to mount your smartphone. You will also receive a captive USB-C cable for charging
 

Does this work with iPhone 6..?

Not unless you add a wireless charging receiver because the iPhone 6 series does not have wireless charging, but if you do that, it should work. I had put one on my 6S; it's a flat plastic tab with embedded electric coils in it and a Lightning plug. I had it inside my case, and it worked fine; you have to unplug it though if you want to plug in a Lightning cord for syncing or charging. I put that coil on my wife's 6S, and she's thrilled for the wireless charging.upgrade.
