Decent upgrade

Nice upgrade over previous version. Replaced previous version that eventually started to freeze on occasion. It's notably faster and smoother. The voice operation is a plus but I don't use it.

This was easy to set up with the included drivers on an older desktop Windows 10 system. System was originally using another very small USB NIC that was constantly disconnecting. This one solved the problem. Only issue is that I wish it was half the size. It sticks out a bit In the back.

I was just looking for a decent basic receiver in my living room for music only. This one was on sale a couple of weeks ago so I grabbed it. I knew that whatever I purchased would probably be abused by the other family members. I connected it to some Yamaha bookshelf speakers. It sounds pretty good. I used it with some MP3s I had on a USB drive, my only issue with that was that it does not categorize by albums; you cannot skip from album to album. Instead you have to go through all the songs to reach the exact one you want to play. You can sort randomly if you wish. Not sure of the volume scale the volume dial is digital; so it goes from 0 to who knows? I'm not going to bust my speakers trying to find out. Played it at a substantial volume for a couple of hours and it didn't even get warm or distort. Radio reception is clear. All in all a lot of features, probably many I'll never use. Worth the money.

Great router
Customer Rating
5.0
Great router, first time using a Netgear. It replaced a similarly priced dual band Linksys that experienced a lot of droputs on the 5GHz band within the home. The Netgear performed much better..no dropouts. Even wifi mode it gets at least the full 300 Mbps download speed from my ISP; I've checked and compared speed with wifi and directly into my router; no latency with wifi . Very happy with the purchase.

My razor was a gift and did not realize the cost to maintain. These cleaners can be expensive but Best Buy had a good price on them. Leave the razor clean and smelling good. I feel much safer with these than some of the other 3rd party products that could damage your razor.

These headphones were purchased to listen to my ipad at home. They sound pretty clear on the high end but lack a little with the bass.

This Kindle was purchased on the black friday sale. At the time I felt it was a steal at that price. The first tablet I purchased a few years ago was the original Kindle Fire, the following year I purchased an iPad mini and now have the iPad mini 4. As you may already know, the iPad does not have explandable memory. This Kindle can have expanded memory to 200GB so that was a good selling point for me. After setting this new Kindle Fire up, I noticed that viewing photos were not as clear as the original iPad mini even without retina display, and the color had a greenish-yellowish tint to it. Some may not notice this if they do not have something else to compare it to. I'm a pro photographer so this was quite unaceptable to me. I was not expecting perfection with the colors but people's skin tones appeared greenish as if they were Vulcans. I also like to read tech manuals and magazines of which many are in PDF format. The Kindle will read this format but the Kindle Fire after all these years still cannot display the cover art from pdf books, etc.; it displays an acrobat pdf document logo instead. If you have a large library of pdfs you have to read through the document titles instead of being able to select by seeing the cover of the book. That was enough for me, I've been spoiled by the ease of use of the iPad and the display with accurate colors. Back to the store for a prompt refund it went. Overall..still a good deal but if you are used to an iPad for the reasons I am..you may be disappointed.

I purchased this printer to replace an Epson Artisan 730 which had gotten damaged during a move. My main reason for the purchase was it's CD printing capability. It is a little cumbersome the way the cd tray works but it gets the job done beautifully. An added bonus for me was the scanner. I purchased an Epson scanner a few months ago and if I had know that the quality of the scanner in the XP-630 was just as good, I would not have purchased that other scanner. It works well wirelessly too. The overall wireless setup went well on a Windows 10 machine. Overall a great purchase.
