This is my first OTA hd antenna. Easy to hook up and works great. Channels come in Crystal clear. Doesn't matter for me but I could see where some might want a longer cable.

This is my 3rd Roku unit. I also have a Roku TV and stick. We just recently dumped cable TV so we wanted a good way to watch TV still. This has been great. Fast and easy to use. The voice search is pretty neat too.

Just start with "Ok Google" to enjoy your entertainment, get answers from Google, tackle your day, and control your smart home. Google Home Mini works on its own or you can have a few around the house, giving you the power of Google anywhere."

I had a regular size Google Home before and love it. We keep it in our kitchen and use it every day. When the minis came out and went on sale for black friday, I bought 4 of them and put them throughout the house. Now we have google all over and it's very handy. We can use it as an intercom or to play music throughout the house. I will say that the mini audio is not nearly as good as the full size Home, but it's not bad for it's size. I just doesn't have as much low end. Overall, very pleased and I may end up getting a couple more, because I keep finding myself trying to talk to google in rooms where I don't have it!

My fiancee and I had these on our Galaxy S6s and now my sister has it on her iphone 7. Great protection. My fiancee once dropped her phone just right and it cracked the protector, but the screen was unharmed. Just like it's supposed to. I also like the feel of these protectors. Very smooth.

My sister upgraded to this phone and she likes it a lot. They were limited on the colors they had in stock, but thankfully she liked the rose gold color. Best Buy had a great deal on this phone through Verizon.

Seems like a no brainer for iphone users. It's cheaper than Asurion and is more helpful I think. Thankfully haven't had to use it yet.

This was a Christmas gift for my mother. She was complaining about her friends calling and talking for a very long time, so we got her this so she can go hands free on her long phone calls. She said it works very well.

We bought this for my mother for a Christmas gift as she was always complaining she couldn't hear her TV because my dad plays his TV too loud in the next room. She got these and said she really likes them and they make a huge difference for her.

I use this for a relatively simple home theater setup with a DVR/cable box, Samsung TV, and Bose Cinemate II. It works pretty well overall. The buttons are not as well coordinated as my DVR remote, but it does control everything. I do wish it were RF instead of infrared because it takes a while to power everything on and switch inputs, so I end up missing the input change a lot. RF would make this remote WAY better.

Can I take my Google Home Mini back and forth with me when I winter in another state?

I don't see why not. Should work just fine as long as you have wifi. You may just have to set it up with the home app on the other network once you get there.

Can you hear without using the ear buds with just the neck piece on the lg tone pro

No. The sound only comes from the ear buds, so you won't be able to hear unless they are in your ears.

What is the difference between the Samsung galaxy 6 and Galaxy 6 edge? Other than price

I've searched up and down what the difference is and all I find is the price is different, size and memory are all the same unless it's listed incorrectly online! And why can't I get a gold one at best buy with verizon?
The difference is that the Edge version has curves on the sides of the screen. There are some special features that you can use with the curved screen, but nothing that I think I would use on a regular basis. Do some google searching for S6 vs. S6 Edge and I'm sure you'll come across some good reviews that talk about the different Edge features.
