This TV was purchased to be used in our son's bedroom. The built-in chromecast works great with the included android remote. He casts video from Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, Vudu and YouTube without any issues. He even uses the Google Home to use voice commands to cast music to it. The picture is very sharp and clear and easily adjustable through the calibration menu. It also works great with his PS4, XBox One and Nintendo Switch.

I received this for free from Best Buy with the purchase of a laptop. I have always used Norton in the past but thought Id give this a try. I really dont see any greater effectiveness between this product and the Norton I get for free from my internet provider.

I bought this for my wife to replace an older toshiba laptop. This laptop runs smoothly and is incredibly fast. The touchscreen is also very responsive. Its small emough she can easily slide it into her purse. As a realtor she like that she can flip the screen into a standup tablet mode for open houses. Overall I would recommend this to anyone looking for a fast and responsive laptop.

 Mohu - Leaf 50 Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna with 60-Mile Range - Black/White
Mohu - Leaf 50 Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna with 60-Mile Range - Black/White
Launched in 2011, this design established the trend of paper-thin TV antennas. Universally compatible with all HDTVs, the Mohu Leaf 50 offers the benefits and powerful performance of our notorious design coupled with the Jolt Switch USB in-line amplifier to reach a 60-mile range. Control TV signal amplification in real time with a simple ON/OFF switch. When it’s "on", TV signals are increased for clearer picture and sound, sometimes receiving channels beyond your antenna’s standard range. When it’s "off", amplification is bypassed while TV signals are still filtered from FM and cellular interference. When plugged into your TV’s USB port, the amplifier only draws power when the TV is on, saving energy, or use the included USB power adapter with any standard wall outlet. Perfect for suburban areas, compact living spaces, single-TV homes, dorm rooms, RVs…take this efficient antenna just about anywhere you go. Easy to set up and easy on the eyes. Multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF elements receive TV signals from both sides, so you can show either side of the black or white reversible design or paint the Leaf antenna for a customized look. Note: The range of this antenna will vary greatly depending on the height, power, and frequency of signals coming from the TV tower, as well as the height of the antenna installation, the terrain, and obstacles between your home and the broadcast towers. Find your TV towers and channels by using our free Antenna Point app on your android or iOS device.

Purchased this to be used on a tv in my son's bedroom. We "cut the cable" three years ago and rely on streaming services (via Roku) and antennae. Wanted to try this in my sons room for local stations. It worked great for most local stations but was unable to reliably pull in The CW (which was the main one we wanted). We ended up returning the item.

I purchased this TV from Best Buy after searching through 100's of online reviews and ratings. Best Buy price matched a slightly lower price from Amazon with no questions. We installed the TV in our living room using a wall mount. The picture quality is excellent and very customizable.
