This printer/scanner/copier is a great unit for the price. It also has wireless and will print from an iPhone. What's not to like. Have had no problems with it.

Knock offs of this product don't work. It has a built-in stand so that you can wrap the cord around it. Use it. If you don't, you run the risk of snipping part of the cord in a zipper and then you will be buying another of these. Overall it's a good piece of equipment.

This Seagate is backward compatible for USB 2.0. It's already formatted for Apple, so no brainer and works perfectly. And, of course the price is really low at BestBuy for this unit.

This is the newest generation and fast wifi - of course you have to also have a fast connection but nonetheless, this iPad is a little rocket. BestBuy is now selling them for almost $200 with 32gb storage. Great price and a year's warranty.

The price, picture, apps, and ease of use makes this 4K TV, a home run. For $799, there is almost nothing that is as competitive. You can download an LG app to your iPad or phone and use it as a remote. I have had the LG for about a month and still learning. The built in apps like Netflix and Amazon are faster, better picture, than any of the current streaming devices. You Tube is marvelous. +++++

This unit has not changed very much since its inception and that is because it's a work horse and a work force. You can't go wrong with the price either. Mine wouldn't print color any longer and so after 5 years, it was time to replace it.

It's not the Roku 4 and it costs more. The Roku 4 had an optical output, and the Premier + doesn't have one. I think the Roku 4, which has been discontinued, is much better than the Premier + and was about the same price. If you buy the Premier + to play in 2 zones, it won't. And buying an audio extractor or de-emebedder won't work either. You will have to buy one with an optical output and then buy a D/A converter too. The Roku 4 had a better picture too than the Premier+.

The Roku Ultra media player has a night listening mode that automatically lowers louder moments and amplifies quieter ones for ideal late-night viewing.
 

It appears the Roku Ultra is the most expensive option in the Roku line can you tell me advantages of the Ultra over the Roku Stick + that is less expensive. I am not sure why I would want the Ultra over the stick+s

If you don't care about choices of channels, speed of use with the remote, and connection speed, buy the stick.

I am planning to buy roku ultra,can I play Dolby Atmos movie through my hdd as I have Dolby Atmos compatible sound bar?

Typically not. Unless the program says so. Blu-Ray discs carry Atmos and some streaming from authorized channels. Just look it up on the channel sponsored by Roku.

Will Roku Steaming Media Player work any where in the world? I spend 6 months a year in Nicaragua. Will I be able to screen shows, movies and sports from the states?

If you have internet and your download speed is more than 8 megs, you should be fine.
