Total Membership has its benefits
on September 12, 2025
Posted by: ThunderHawk
Verified Purchase:Yes
I always think I’m not going to renew this Total Membership plan, but then I end up buying something and since I have the Total Membership, I don’t have to buy a protection plan. Then recently, because I have this membership plan, upon buying a Samsung refrigerator, I got an additional $850 off! So maybe I’ll keep this plan around for a while.

Samsung Bespoke Counter Depth Refrigerator
on September 12, 2025
Posted by: ThunderHawk
Verified Purchase:Yes
Was looking at the 30” cu ft version, but my wife preferred the counter depth one (24 cu. ft). The biggest difference is the inside depth of the refrigerator. Otherwise, the interior is almost exactly the same layout, except the 30 cu ft has a water dispenser in the door, while the 24 cu ft version has a water pitcher inside the door. However, over time I have notice the counter depth refrigerator’s interior shelving is not as sturdy as its larger brother’s. By that I mean the shelving structure seems to be a little flimsy compared to the larger 30 cu ft version. The two ice trays, that are in the freezer, are a great feature. It has two separate ice trays that produce two different size ice cubes and you just scoop the cubes up with the included ice scoop, that sits in its own little compartment. It’s a good refrigerator, but I wish I would have gotten the 30 cu ft version.

iPad 11” Air
on January 15, 2025
Posted by: ThunderHawk
Verified Purchase:Yes
This iPad was purchased as a gift. I debated between the 13” iPad Air and the 11” iPad Air (I have a 12.9” iPad Pro). I went with the 11” iPad because I felt it would be easier to hold and the smaller screen still allowed for ample display. I realize there are additional features that come with the 13” model, but since this iPad is going to be used for reading email and surfacing the web, I believe the smaller size offered more benefits over a larger screen. For someone thinking of replacing their laptop with an iPad, I would definitely go with the 13” model.

Smart TV for a reasonable price.
on March 23, 2024
Posted by: ThunderHawk
Verified Purchase:Yes
This TV was purchased as a gift. While it’s not an expensive TV by today’s standards, it has a lot of features found on more expensive TVs. It’s a smart TV, which was important, as it’s being used with WiFi (no cable hookup) using apps for selecting what’s watched on the TV. It has a backlit-LCD screen, vs side lit. Resolution is 2160P. This 50” smart TV, for a very reasonable price, was perfect for the reason it was purchased.

HP Ink Cartridges
on September 16, 2023
Posted by: ThunderHawk
Verified Purchase:Yes
While there are a lot of different inks on the market, HP ink cartridges are always of the highest quality. The cartridges are specially designed to work with each printer family. The cartridges contain the “brains” that control each micro drop of ink that’s placed on the paper.

HP Ink Cartridges
on August 19, 2023
Posted by: ThunderHawk
Verified Purchase:Yes
People think ink is ink and it doesn’t matter what one purchases, cost being the main factor. But there can be subtle differences in ink quality. HP ink is “formulated” to be high quality ink. The HP ink cartridges have built into them the “smarts” to control each micro dot of ink that is put on the surface of a medium and specifically designed to work with its respective HP family printer class.

Samsung 65” QN90B
on December 2, 2022
Posted by: ThunderHawk
Verified Purchase:Yes
The QN90B TV has a beautiful picture. Very crisp and clear. The colors are true, and IMO, black tones are as good as those found on an OLED TV. However, I am not a person who requires everything be absolutely perfect. The one issue I have with this TV is the sound. There is a sound adjustment found in the main menu under General & Privacy > Intelligent Mode Settings > Intelligent Mode > Adaptive Sound+ setting. With this setting ON, it’s supposed to analyze your viewing environment and optimize the sound accordingly. I found I get better sound quality (clearer voices) with this option set to OFF. There are other settings I wish I had access to, but they’re greyed out and not available for changing. Bottom line, this is a wonderful TV and if you decide to purchase it, you won’t be sorry.

Apple Watch - Series 6
on July 9, 2021
Posted by: ThunderHawk
Verified Purchase:Yes
This watch is pretty amazing. From the different watch faces, to the apps, to the medical benefits. It’s really like wearing your iPhone on your wrist. I bought this for my wife because when she has her iPhone in her purse, I can’t get a hold of her. Now, I can call her cell and she answers her watch. Btw, I didn’t get the cellular model. Since this was for my wife, I knew she wouldn’t want an additional phone number to deal with. The watch size is 44mm. I was concerned it might be too big for her wrist, but she says it’s not. My wife believes this is the better size for viewing whatever is displaying on the watch. The watch color is Rose, which matches her iPhone and MacBook Air.

CyberPower 650VA for WiFi backup
on July 9, 2021
Posted by: ThunderHawk
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this UPS in order to keep my WiFi system (Orbi RBR50 and Frontier router/modem) functioning during a power outage. As it turns out, we had an outage about a week later and the the devices remained powered up. I plan to purchase another one for the Orbi satellite. In addition, this CyberPower device is pretty identical to another well known UPS, but at a better price point, so I decided to try the CyberPower 650VA. The CyberPower device also has a lower profile than the other well known UPS. They’re both good products.

Watch band for Apple Watch, series 6.
on January 30, 2021
Posted by: ThunderHawk
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought an Apple rose color watch for my wife. The additional watch band, which was a bonus for ordering the watch, is a perfect color to complement the rose color watch case. In reality, it’s a watch band. It does the job of keeping the watch on one’s wrist. Would recommend this band and color, if you’re looking for a pale colored watch band.

By Ogura
The overall quality of the TV is great! 4k movies and Netflix are awesome on it.
One thing that is not good is that the Samsung system sometimes crashes and the TV has to be rebooted.

Have not had your issue
May 23, 2020
I have had the Samsung QLED, 75QN70R model, since May, 2019. I have not ever had the TV crash, nor have I ever had to reboot the TV to clear an issue. I hope you took this issue up with BB, or even returned it. BTW, I did purchase the 5 year protection plan, which added considerable cost to the TV purchase.

Why'd you buy it?
October 3, 2020
What did you think you were buying? Do you know what tablets are? Yes, it does use a different type of connector from some of the other models. It uses the same type of connector (USB-C) as the latest MacBook Air uses, for instance. You should have done your homework before you bought this tablet. Mine works great, but *I* know how to use it. Have someone show you how to use it. Once you understand how a tablet works, you'll enjoy using it. Guaranteed!

What is Tizen
Tizen is the name of the operating system used in Samsung smart TVs. However, it is also the operating system used in Samsung cellphones, tablets and PCs, along with Samsung smartwatches and fitness trackers. Tizen has different versions depending on the device.
You've most likely heard iOS, MacOS, Android and Windows. Now add Tizen to that list. Hope this helps.

an a 6 inch wrist wear the 44 mm
You “should” be able to. The reason I say “should” is because this is kind of a personal preference. My wife has a 44mm watch and her wrist is about 6”. She feels the 40mm would be too small for viewing whatever is displayed on the watch’s face. Might I suggest, dropping by your local BB store and put each watch on your wrist. There isn’t a great deal of difference between the 40mm and 44mm, IMO. It may boil down to what you feel is best for viewing what’s displayed on the watch’s face.

Why can’t the battery be replaced? How long does the existing battery last before it will not keep a charge for the stated 18 hours.
The Apple Watch, at least series 5, 6 &7, batteries can be replaced. Once the MAXIMUM CAPACITY drops below 80%, you may begin to notice the battery no longer holds a charge like it used to. To check: Settings >Battery >Battery Health and look at the MAXIMUM CAPACITY value. If you have AppleCare+ you can get the battery replaced at no charge if the capacity is below 80%.

With other smartwatches getting 6+ days of use before charging, why do the Apple watches only get 18 hours of use before the need to charge them? I thought they were such a great technology company, but the fact of the low usage numbers is a factor.

Is this for small or large size wrists? Or both?
There are a total of three pieces. One piece contains the clasp. The other two pieces are of different sizes. I’m using the smaller size band, that has 10 settings (holes, in which to insert the clasp’s tongue) and it fits perfectly, at the 5 hole mark. The other band is for much larger wrists. I’m sure one of the configurations will fit your wrist.
