Reasonable hard drive for the money

Verified Purchase:Yes
Reasonable hard drive for the money. I am always careful with these drives but the WD passport series have not let me down yet like the lower level of WD or other brands. I have had other types fail so I pay a little more for these. These have a bit longer warranty. If you ever drop any hard drive from waist level to the floor, plan on it being ruined and consider yourself lucky if it is undamaged.

Decent unit for the money
on September 26, 2021
Posted by: SimplyTheStats
Verified Purchase:Yes
Compact size and reasonably priced solution to cool a room or 2. Our main AC went down, so a few of these units around the house were a lifesaver and cooled the house cheaper than our central air. A couple notes: These portable units (like most if not all) have thin generic expanding sides to fill to the edge of the window. I always cut some foam insulation to cover these and seal the seams with duct tape all the way around. Security wise, they also make the window easier to break into.

Worked for us.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I visit my parent's house which has numerous, very old, solid plaster walls so wireless routers have a tough time. This range extender is fairly easy to install and improved our wireless range. In our situation, it made a huge difference, It can't work miracles but it is worth giving a try.

MS Office--1 Time Purchase, No Monthly Charges
on August 7, 2021
Posted by: SimplyTheStats
Verified Purchase:Yes
Microsoft Home and Student 2019 includes Word, Excel and Powerpoint. Same programs as Microsoft Office 365 counterparts but you only pay once and you don't have to log in or work on the internet. I enjoy the freedom and can't figure out why anyone would want to use MS 365 with the never-ending monthly charges and internet hassles.

Nice sounding speakers
on August 7, 2021
Posted by: SimplyTheStats
Verified Purchase:Yes
For around $200, these sound more accurate and more natural than competing speakers imo...and much better than the lower polk line. I have them hooked up to a stereo receiver to improve TV sound quality. Huge improvement. Everyone has different tastes so I suggest listening to several different speakers to see what you like...but definitely include these in the mix if you are looking around the $200-$300 price point.

Enjoy wireless music playback from smartphones or other mobile devices with this Yamaha Hi-Fi stereo receiver. It has a handy speaker selector for switching between the sound output terminals, and it uses Bluetooth for wireless connectivity. A power management feature on this Yamaha stereo receiver shuts it down automatically when the receiver is not being used.

Nice, clear sound

Got this and a small set of polk bookshelf speakers (S15) to improve the sound of my father's TV. Works well--sound is much clearer and better quality that soundbars imo. The remote keys are tool small though imo. This is obviously stereo and there is no surround sound...but we didn't need that. Just clean stereo sound, Huge improvement,

Uses less power than similar air conditioners
on August 7, 2021
Posted by: SimplyTheStats
Verified Purchase:Yes
We only needed this for 1 room but it does just fine. We chose it instead of others because it uses less power for about the same BTUs and it helps prevent popping the circuit breaker on an overused circuit. If you are in a similar situation, the power used by each air conditioner should be visible in the the specs.

Worth considering

Posted by: SimplyTheStats
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm thinking I got this for a rather expensive sub-woofer. I've been buying sub woofers for about 20 years and even though I don't abuse them, they seem to die between 3 and 5 years. So this is a crap shoot. When a product fails within coverage, I've never had a problem getting Best Buy to replace the product or refund the price no matter where I live. I don't buy them on everything, but for things that tend to fail (and depending on the cost), its a nice option, especially if you are giving something as a gift.

Disappointed .
By Diego from Spring tx
I was online looking for outdoor speakers least they could do is include both the wall mount they speak of on this instruction papers and thanks for not letting me know had to buy cables separately.

Whuuuuuuttt???
August 26, 2018
I don't know that this is a fair criticism. I've bought a lot of speakers in my life and unless they specifically said on the box or advertisement, I've never seen wall mounts or speaker wires included. Not saying it isn't possible somewhere in the universe...but not usually on Earth. First, most people probably won't use a wall mount, and second, the speaker company has no idea how long of wires to include because they don't know where you are putting them. Then there is the issue that everyone seems to like different weights/quality of wire. By not including these items, they can keep the cost of the speakers at a lower price. I wouldn't make this comment but I'm hoping to prevent you from being upset when every other speaker you get is packaged the same way without wire and wall mounts.

So far, so good...
By SimplyTheStats
I've only had this a couple days but so far I really like it. Most important reason for my purchase was battery life, and its what I expected. I don't know if I could really get 3 days with my usual use but definitely 2 days of fairly constant use...and that was what I was looking for. Build quality, screen, sound, camera, processor, etc are all very nice imo. Took a 500GB SD card for extra storage, no problem. I'm not quite use to the latest android OS yet so that might take a bit and I'm not sure the touch sensors towards the top of the screen are as responsive as they should be. Seems I have to touch things there a few times more than I should. All in all, nice phone and I'll be surprised if Motorola doesn't sell a ton of these. PS. The selection of cases is a bit narrow at the moment because it is brand new but I have no doubt, more will be available soon.

Sorry, this review was for the phone...not case

Sorry, this review was meant for the new Moto G Power phone...not the case. Best Buy, please move it to the correct product. Thanks. PS. I do have the case too and it is a nice case but a bit too bulky for me.

What is the release date in the u.s. for this phone ?

One review I saw yesterday online (it was written around 28-29 Mar) "thought" that 16 April was the release date. Of course, he could be wrong or things could be delayed with all this Corona stuff. Hoping it is a good date as I'm waiting on it. Tired of short battery life.
