Good Remote
on April 8, 2022
Posted by: Mike
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had to change from using my XBOX controller as the batteries were being drained so quickly. Having this remote is nice but it's not quite the perfect remote. It needs to have a clear signal range to the XBOX otherwise it won't work. That is my only gripe with this remote.

Solid OtterBox
on May 14, 2021
Posted by: Mike
Verified Purchase:Yes
Every time I buy a new iPhone I will also buy an OtterBox Defender. This version is easier to remove and put back on but what was missing was a screen protector as previous versions had them included which was why I rated this as good rather than excellent. I had to buy a screen protector from another company.

Replace any standard duplex outlet with this USB wall outlet. This tamper-resistant device prevents shocks by connecting to electricity only when a standard plug is inserted. The two USB charging ports make it easy to charge phones, cameras and other devices. A white decora-style wall plate is included with this USB wall outlet for simple installation.

Awesome Wall Outlet Charger
on May 14, 2021
Posted by: Mike
Verified Purchase:Yes
Last summer I had my home remodeled and noticed these wall outlets. I bought two of them to install in my home. One in my living room and another in my bedroom. They help charge my iPhone quickly and now I wish I had bought another for my office and might do that in the near future.

New to 4K. This collection features the wonder of the entire Star Wars saga, capturing the moments from a young Anakin Skywalker's descent into the dark side to the rise of the Resistance and their struggle to restore peace in the galaxy. The story that electrified a generation comes to a striking conclusion.

I am a HUGE Star Wars fan and even though Disney+ has it all on their service, I still had to buy this as a Star Wars fan and collector. Not a fan of the sequels (good rating instead of excellent) but still worth buying.

Perfect Home Decor to Hide the Wires
on May 14, 2021
Posted by: Mike
Verified Purchase:Yes
I recently remodeled my home and had a SONY OLED TV installed on the wall but the wires would be displayed, A Best Buy representative told me about this product and how it could hide the wires and lucky enough it matched with my home decor as I have gray walls with white crown molding and baseboards. Highly recommended for this type of use.

Can't go wrong with a SONY OLED
on May 14, 2021
Posted by: Mike
Verified Purchase:Yes
Last summer I remolded my home and needed a television to add to my exercise room. Being on the treadmill listening to music got me only so far. Then I used my iPhone to try to watch a show and later bought an iPad. I finally took the plunge and bought this TV at the recommendation of a Best Buy representative. I already have two LG OLED TVs in my home but never had a Sony OLED. What I like about this is I can watch shows from my iPhone onto my TV using Xfinity Stream app. I like to watch certain shows on an east coast feed and this TV allows that while the LG OLED model does not. The sound is very good too and of course the OLED display is awesome.

I have always loved to play videos games since I was a kid with an Atari to the original Nintendo. I was lucky to buy the PlayStation 5 and it's a well built system that is fast, delivers great graphics, is quiet and does not get overheated. I bought this because I love MLB The Show (also available on Xbox Series X) If you are able to buy one I highly recommend doing so.

The CM1000 Ultra-High Speed Cable Modem, with speeds up to 1Gbps and DOCSIS 3.1 is 10X faster than DOCSIS 3.0 devices. It's backward compatible with DOCSIS 3.0 and ready for future service plan upgrades for XFINITY from Comcast, Cox, and Spectrum. A Gigabit Ethernet port provides faster access and downloads.
 

The manufacturer's info states: "Not compatible with Cable bundled voice services". What exactly does that mean? I plan on ordering Comcast's "triple play", which is internet, TV, and a phone. Will this work with that plan?

I have the Triple Play but used to have the voice feature. This modem will not work with the voice feature.

In my area I have gig speed but there are no cable modems that will provide gig speed with the voice feature. You can see the list of cable modems that you can buy from retail on their web site and which works for gig speed, voice, etc.

Since I had ADT for home security and was paying $57 per month I dropped their service and replaced the voice feature with Comcast/Xfnity's home security.

With this modem I now have gig speed and still have the same bill amount with my Triple Play except now I save $57 per month by dropping ADT.

If you do what I did make sure to get a Netgear Orbi router too. Your Internet speed will be the same throughout your house as well as outside in your front and back yards.
