 Sony - DualShock 4 Wireless Controller for PlayStation 4 - Wave Blue
Sony - DualShock 4 Wireless Controller for PlayStation 4 - Wave Blue
When the success of your next quest hangs in the balance, or only one more hairpin turn stands between you and first place. When the clock is running out and your team must defend that flag at all costs, or the next combo attack could either be your greatest or your last. When the on-screen action is intense, nothing matters more to the success of your game than the relationship you have with the controller in your hands. The DUALSHOCK family of controllers has always brought you innovative features and precise control. The DUALSHOCK 4 is no different and brings an exciting array of additional features that are designed to usher your gaming experience into the next generation. With these additions, the DUALSHOCK 4 Controller becomes an extension of your brain, turning every move of your fingers into an accurate performance in the game — and in your hands, accurate performance can only mean victory.How gamers use a controller is being redefined right before our very eyes as the next generation of consoles also redefines many other aspects of gaming. The DUALSHOCK 4 controller is equipped with a multitouch touch pad on the face of the controller, opening up a new world of gameplay. The integrated light bar generates a rainbow of colors and works with your favorite games to enable innovative gaming experiences. The DUALSHOCK 4's share button lets you upload screenshots and video of epic gaming moments or live-stream sessions with your pals — with the press of a button. Besides all of the new innovations, the DUALSHOCK 4 controller improves features from past controllers, such as the feel, shape and sensitivity of the dual analog sticks and trigger buttons for enhanced control and a built-in speaker and stereo headset jack for flexible audio options. The future of gaming is now, and the features of this controller live up to the hype.

Works as expected and seems to be very accurate as far as I can tell, particularly on step counts. Sleep monitoring is very interesting. The one caveat is that when using the clip instead of the wristband, it inadvertently pops out without warning on several occasions...to the point where I will not use that anymore, which is a shame because I don't always want something on my wrist. I saw on an Amazon review that someone else had this issue and lost their Pulse! This needs to be resolved.
Otherwise, a great and light device.

What's great about it: Easy to use, small form factor, good price
This thing is an inexpensive, quick, and easy way to turn any TV into a "Smart" TV. Perfect for inexpensive, smaller TV's that don't have a "Smart" connected feature, or for projectors in home theaters. It has most of the major streaming services supported and I suspect may add more over time. Great purchase.

What's great about it: Great value - solid build, good sound
What's not so great: No network connectivity, but at this price not expected
I have had a variety of receivers over the years, including Yamaha, Denon, Onkyo, Carver, and Yamaha consistently is a solid performer that simply lasts forever. If you need a very good sounding, solid receiver that can do HDMI switching, with CEC support, you can't beat this for the price.
This product has... Interfaces well with TV

How do I hook this up to a projection TV run through a Receiver?

You simply plug the Chromecast into an open HDMI input connection on the back of your AV receiver, just as you would with a DVD, game console, etc. using an HDMI cable. Then, just select that input and you're in business!
