I teach from home with a MacBook pro and iPad second screen. Sidecar works better for me with this cable. And I can record my iPads screen on QuickTime easily with this cord. Keeps iPad charged all day, while it connects Sidecar.

Reliable easy compact
on April 17, 2020
Posted by: Cbusteach
Verified Purchase:Yes
So now, all 6 of my TVs have a generation of Apple TV’s. This HD one is reliable and works well for HDMI plugged 1080 TVs. I do have one 4K tv and would recommend the next level Apple TV for that one. Software updates seem to happen in all of the ATVs except the original shorter ones (gen 1 & gen 2, I think?). Very happy with the Siri remote...but don’t let them get wet. Once went on vacation and a cat spilled a glass of water on one. $80 to replace isn’t fun. Luckily older gen remotes can be used except for a Few adjustments having to do with AirPods as speakers and closing apps.

Powerful enough for 3000sf old home

Was wary at first to spend this much on a router. But the wife was right, we now have over 40 iots (phones, TVs, dots, etc) not to mention two adults and 3 kids working from home...we needed a powerful router. At first I had a sub 100$ Wifi6 and returned it a week later. The ax8 is a powerful enough to stream HD three walls away. Happy I made this investment.

Keep getting better, natural intercoms
on March 30, 2020
Posted by: Cbusteach
Verified Purchase:Yes
I like the improved easier setup for this generation’s Dot’s compared to Gen 1. They setup with Bluetooth on my phone much simpler than old ones did. I only know this when I got a new router and had to reset their network settings.
They also sound much fuller than Gen 1.
My family loves to make announcements on all 5 of them scattered around the house, or “drop in” on anyone of them to “intercom”. I live in an old house and would never even think about fixing the broken intercom from the 1970s. These ARE the modern intercom :)

Very Fast compared to Mid2014
on March 30, 2020
Posted by: Cbusteach
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bit bullet and bought this a month too soon. Wish I had waited for the new models with same specs but twice the HD. It was on sale, but would pay full price for a 512GB HD. Very happy with speed of the i5, which i read is essentially the same as the i7, and significantly faster enough than the i3. Hopefully it’ll last like my old Macs did...for 7-10 years...I’ll be realistic and expect 6 years again. My mid2014 grew too slow after 5ish years (It was the base model then). This being the mid model, maybe I’ll get my wish.

Excellent front speakers for home theater
on March 30, 2020
Posted by: Cbusteach
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have had a home-theater/HIFI set ups since my dad would hand-me-down his old Marantz Quadriles in the early 80’s. So naturally a sound bar is never an option for me. These speakers finally allowed me to replace a pair of crumbling Optimus (RadioShack) bookshelf speakers. I’m very impressed by how affordable and full these sound. I have a 150W sub also connected so their bass is unnoticeable, but the treble and mids match very nicely with my Optimus Center channel. Good looking, wood boxes which hang on my wall with my trusty RadioShack wall mounts, albeit they point upwards a bit since the speaker terminals are so large on their back faces. Good Stuff, affordable set of highly rated (CNET) speakers.

SO easy to install, no scratches yet
on March 30, 2020
Posted by: Cbusteach
Verified Purchase:Yes
I hesitated to buy one of these in the past having had so much difficulty keeping it free of bumps, bubbles and fuzzies. Thankfully this comes with a phone-specific template that let me simply drop the screen in place. It also had a set of cleaners, wipes and sticky roller that actually got rid of all the foreign matter except for one tiny bump. So, near perfect. No complaints

Fast as it can get! But made dead zones?
on March 30, 2020
Posted by: Cbusteach
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have a cable modem at 400mbps and it maxes this out on the 5GHz signal. My last modem would max at 250mbps, so I’m literally getting what I pay for now (as far as speed). However, the spot beaming (you set up preferred devices in app/web interface) seems to create some dead zones, I didn’t have with my last modem.
This may be from the Covid-19 internet backbone stressing that MUST be going on, but I don’t think so. I’ll give it a few more days/weeks and I’ll review again. So, So far impressed with speed, but may have some “holes”.

Keurig Water Filter Replacement Cartridges (2-Pack): Filter your water for an even better tasting cup of coffee, tea, hot chocolate, apple cider or iced beverage.
 

I have some water filters that came with my Keurig but they are too small compared to the filter that is in. Are there different sizes of filters?

Just one size I’ve noticed in my MANY years using Keurigs. The holder appears too small for the filter and they do swell a little bit when you soak them for 5 minutes before installed.

Make home gatherings more intimate with this Philips Hue white and color ambiance BR30 bulb. It can be customized to provide a gentle glow or changed to gleam in amber, all via the accompanying app. Sync this Philips Hue white and color ambiance BR30 bulb to your movies to get extra entertainment value.
 

I wan to buy 6 bulbs for the recessed cans in my living room. Can I control the color of each individual light or are they synced to work as one?

You can control them all at once with Siri, since I set my 4 canlights up as a group. But in the Hue App, they can be individually adjusted. The Hue app is very smart and can be adjusted to match any picture/photo you upload...each light to a different color to make a scene you choose. For example one picture of the beach can have aqua, white, blue, green lights in my setup. Hopefully pic I’ve attached is clear :)
