What's great about it: Small size
What's not so great: Time to complete charge of the battery
I bought this for the times I could not get my phone or tablet to an outlet charger when I am traveling.
The product works great and can do multiple charges of a phone. I haven't had a chance to do multiple charges of a tablet yet from one charge of the charger.
Very simple to use, plug in the micro USB to charge the battery. Plug in a USB to charge a device.
I own other batteries that are much larger so I like that it's smaller.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I wanted something that could store a good amount of data for a project without breaking the bank and this fit the need. Product was easy to unpack and install and use. Unlike other companies, Seagate didn't need attempt to install any of the included software on my computer which I appreciated.

What's great about it: Great price and simple to use
I needed to access my data on a laptop that had died. My choices were to bring my laptop into a shop to perform a backup or find something that would let me access the hard drive. This was a cheaper alternative to boot. Once I removed the hard drive from the laptop and reassembled it into thos enclosure, it wasn't too difficult to copy my data using another computer.

This is a replacement lens for my DLSR. It's great that I could get a replacement easily while on vacation just about anywhere in the USA. Decent standard lens for all-purpose pictures.

Does this replace my AT&T Uverse router? Will Nest and Wemo connect with it with no problem?

Those pictures look like the AT&T Uverse modem, but I could be wrong since I don't have that system. This product is a router that you connect to the cable/DSL modem (or other modem device). Don't your entertainment devices already connect to the existing network? Is there any requirement from UVerse to keep the existing network? Swapping out the router may not be a good idea until you check with Uverse to see if there is any requirement to use their setup.

If you have your heart set on this system, you can connect this product to your existing router using one of the existing ethernet ports (keeping everything else the same); if you do this, you would create a whole new network in your location using this Google Wifi product while still keeping the Uverse network. Both networks would still share the same available bandwidth.

With regards to the Nest and Wenmo ability to connect, I don't have experience with them, but this is simply a router setup creating a new network. Whatever issues you had or didn't have setting up the Nest and Wemo on your current network would be the same when attempting to setup on this Google network using this product. This would apply to any devices you attempt to add to your home or business network and isn't dependent upon the router system you have installed.

Using TP-LINK - AV600 Adapters now. My speed upstairs is not great (kid playing online MP games downstairs connected wired to router). Will this be a better option for me to get signal upstairs (I'm farthest away from router/modem) My home is 2,100 sq ft.

This setup will indeed improve your reception around the house. I have a similar setup that you describe. I have the cable modem in the basement (farthest point from my computer) and without installing a second device (of the three) on the same floor as my computer, I was barely getting one or two bars on the computer. After installing the second device on my floor, I get great reception on my computer.

Is this compatible with Amazon Fire tv and Apple tv? Thanks

This is simply a router setup. As long as you can connect those devices wirelessly to the network, you are all set. If you must connect via ethernet, I wouldn't necessarily recommend this device because of the limited ethernet ports on the devices (you don't 4 or 8 ports like you see on a "normal" router.

Do I still need to subscribe with a service provider like ATT

Yes you do. This is simply a different type of router. You connect one of the three to the cable modem or DSL modem. The other two (called access points) you setup around the house or business where you want to enhance coverage.
