I recommend this over a roku stick. Unlike the sticks, the unit uses IR for a remote which means you can program it to a universal remote. If you get a stick, you are stuck with the roku remote or your phone

The s8 is a hard device for case makers. The curved screen does not lend itself to complete coverage. Otterbox always makes great cases. This is no exception. I don't use the plastic cover except at night on my night stand.

Enjoy jams when you run or exercise with help from these Sony wireless earbuds. The cushions on the earbuds keep these in place even when you move at fast speeds or jump about. These Sony wireless earbuds have a gold-plated L-type mini-plug that has a low profile so you won't hit it while working out.

I tried most of what bb has to offer for workout earbuds. These were my pick. Although not the most stylish, they sound the best, and are the most comfortable.

They sound okay. I don't think I like how they feel, and the proprietary charging connector seems like a bad idea. Try the Sony xb50bs. They sound better, and are easier to take in and out. (they don't look as cool, but are way more comfortable as well)

I compared the xb3 and xb30 side by side and thought the xb3 sounded a little better. The light show on the xb30 is dumb. Only improvement is a "skip track" button, but I still pick the xb3 over the xb30

Im a touring sound engineer, and I love this speaker. For its size, it sounds incredible, and easily fills a room. I tested it side by side with the new xb30, and found that this one sounds better, is slightly smaller, and prefer not to have a stupid light show. The only drawback is the proprietary charger, that you will not find a replacement for in your pile of old power cables.

Replaced the factory stereo in my tribute. Easy to install myself, sounds pretty good, lots of settings to play with. I like that you can have the colors change automatically at a certain time, so that it is bright durning the day and dim at night.

I'd like the model that does not come up with ads. Is this the one? Thanks
No, this one has ads. But they are only on the lock screen, so they are not intrusive at all.
