Does not work in Alaska, but works in China/Russia
on December 3, 2023
Posted by: Nikolai
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Google Fi SIM worked in Korea, Mongolia and Russia wery well. No extra charge. I would permamently switch to Google Fi, but it does not work in Alaska. Yes, it does not work in Alaska, but it works well in Russia and China.
Also you can reuse the same SIM card to activate a new account. The SIM card is reusable.
Next time I travel, I will reactivate it.
Built in Free Google VPN is a big Must Have when travel overseas.

Pump up the volume with these Sony wireless on-ear headphones. Advanced drivers produce clear high-fidelity audio, while the EXTRA BASS feature helps you feel the beat by enhancing low-end frequencies. A 30-hour battery life keeps the music coming. With a lightweight construction and soft swiveling earcups, these Sony wireless on-ear headphones keep you comfortable while you listen.

on July 26, 2019
Posted by: Nikolai
I was looking for a Noise Canceling headphones and bought WH-XB700 today, but found out this is not Noise Canceling Headphones as listed on bestbuy page.
Will return it and exchange to another model.
But I tested it.
The headphones a good. The sound is very good. Bass is nice and clear. Better than in my Toyota JBL Subwoofer.

Canon EF-S 18~200mm f/3.5~5.6 IS Standard Zoom Lens: An ideal lens for everyday use, this versatile lens can capture a gorgeous sunset to a spectacular fireworks show. This zoom lens suppresses chromatic aberrations while retaining true colors. And with the image stabilization to help reduce motion blur, you get extremely sharp pictures.

Very heavy, but no alternative.
on November 18, 2018
Posted by: Nikolai
from Anchorage, AK, USA
I have this lens for several years and this is my primary lens on my Canon Rebel SL1. Another lens I use is the EF-S 24mm "Pancake". Both lenses are awesome. The "Pancake" works on small Rebel SL1 as they belong to each other. The EF-S 18-200 look huge an bulky on SL1. It is heavy and even has a mechanical lock switch to lock the lens. Otherwise it will extend itself under its own weight if you tilt the camera down. Makes me laugh.
For years I am trying to find an alternative. Lighter and with similar performance. No luck. Simply because this EF-S 18-200 lens does the job right.
I would recommend this lens if you don't mind the weight, but need a good quality and not carry a whole lens collection with you. It works well on special trips and events.
It look very fragile.
If you do get this lens, make sure you also get the "EF-S 24mm "pancake" lens to make you camera compact when needed!
Another recommendation - do not get rid on your EF-S 18-55mm kit lens!

With a 48MP Quad camera system, you can capture from the smallest details to grand canyon wide images. View them on the stunning 6.8~ FHD+ Max Vision display and an 89% screen-to-body ratio. You don~t have to worry about battery life with a 4000mAh battery that can last up to three days.
 

Does it have FM Radio?

Motorola Customer Care is wrong.
My Moto G Stylus (2021) Model: XT2115-1 from BestBuy DOES have FM Radio. See screenshot.

Does this phone work with WIFI calling?

Wi-Fi Calling does not work on my Moto G Stylus (2021).
I have a Prepaid AT&T SIM and a Prepaid AT&T Moto G Play. I have a Wi-Fi Calling option in Meny Phone/Menu/Settings/Calls.
When I move AT&T SIM card to Unlocked Moto G Stylus (2021) bought at BestBuy, I do not have Wi-Fi option.
But Wi-Fi Calling app is there available in the system, you can enable/disable. It just won't activate with AT&T Prepaid SIM in my case.
Could be available with other carriers.
See a screenshot attached from Moto G Stylus (2021) Unlocked purchased at at BestyBuy.
