I got this to expand the storage of my new Samsung Tab S6 Lite. So far I have downloaded 15 movies to it. They play back smoothly and with absolutely no problems. I also use it for music storage, and get excellent playback for that as well. I am very happy with my purchase!

The Tab S6 Lite is an excellent midrange tablet. It has a very good screen, and very good speakers. It is well suited for watching movies, videos, Youtube, and other media. It is well suited for listening to music, and even has a headphone jack when privacy and battery economy are desired. It comes with Android 11 and Samsung One UI 3.1 --> and as a result has Samsung Dex installed. With this and the addition of a bluetooth keyboard and mouse, you have almost laptop capability for productivity.
In one of the attached photos you see my home screen with a few widgets, illustrating the clarity of the screen. In another photo you see the pulldown menu, showing the button to enable Dex. In another you see the home screen for VUDU, a good source for movies without a subscription. And in a fourth photo you see the home screen for albums of the included app Samsung Music -- which is able to play WMA files, as well as many others.
Accessories I would recommend with purchase include a case (I got a Ztotop case for this laptop), a microSDXC memory card (to expand storage), and a OTG (On The Go) flash drive (to facilitate transfer of files). To enable productivity, pick up a bluetooth keyboard, a bluetooth mouse, and a tablet stand.
This tablet serves all my needs for the forseeable future, and I recommend it highly.

I got this to use with my new Samsung Tab A7 Lite - and it has worked out very well. This slim stylus fits my hand well, and is used for playing games, reading, negotiating web sites, and other things that need one to touch the screen. It also fits snugly in the storage loop on the folio case for my laptop.

The Tab A7 Lite is a good choice for an ereader. Its size and proportions are close to those of a paperback novel. One can hold it in one hand and read comfortably for lengthy periods of time. It is priced close to or lower than many e-ink readers, yet provides far more utility than they are capable of. It is far more responsive and powerful than an e-ink reader of comparable cost. The attached photos show it compared to a paperback novel, when mounted in a protective folio cover from Ztotop. If you are looking for a candidate as an ereader, this is a good choice.

I was looking for a way to add some modern features to my vintage stereo receiver - and this device really delivers! I connected this to the AUX input on my receiver and in minutes was able to pair it to my Sony walkman, and my Samsung phone. The quality of the sound was very, very good. I had no problem adjusting the volume (using the controls on the device, on my phone or walkman, or on the receiver). It has added new life to my home stereo system!

This task lamp is actually better than advertised! Fully charged I have operated it for over 5 hours when set to minimum brightness - and that is more than adequate for most situations, with the lamp directly above the material illuminated. I find it extremely useful because it is easily moved from one location to another for whatever the need is - such as the kitchen table for tax returns, or my computer table to better illuminate some manual. I recommend it!

I have lost two camera to weather. One simply because the humidity killed it. One simply because of a little dust in the air. This had till now severely limited my pursuit of photography outdoors. This camera is a little miracle! It's weatherization allows one to use it in most outdoor situations without having to take great pains to protect it from the weather, or other adverse conditions experienced outdoors. I don't need any contraptions to protect it - it simply hangs from my neck and is easy to operate. The camera body fits my hand easily, and provides easy access to all controls. The lens provided (which is also weatherized) is excellent for the broad range of situations I encounter outdoors. This camera truly is a little miracle for those who wish to expand their skills in outdoor photography. I have attached 4 sample photos - be aware that each had to be sized down to meet the size constraints of the website. One is a shot of a cardinal high up on a tree top. It was taken at max zoom, handheld. Another is of a pileated woodpecker that I was able to get closer to. It too was taken at max zoom, handheld. The dual stabilization does a fantastic job. Another shot is of the near total eclipse of the moon on 19 Nov 2021, at maximum extinction. It was taken at max zoom, handheld, at below freezing temperatures. Finally is a picture of a dramatic sunrise, taken at mid zoom, handheld.
This camera has opened up a whole new world of photography for me. I highly recommend it!

i think this is cool but all my cassette tapes are gone . Where can i find cassette tapes by artist
Often your local Goodwill store, and other charity shops, can be a place to find used cassette tapes - generally at very attractive prices.

Can you listen to tapes in the stereo?
I have played stereo cassette tapes in this boombox, and can verify that you get true stereo sound out of the boombox from them. The same is true when tuned in to fm stereo stations, and when playing stereo mp3 files from a usb stick. An added note - the mp3 files obtained from copying stereo cassette tapes using this boombox are also true stereo.

I must transfer short clips from CDs to cassette tape. Can I connect jacks from my amp directly to the tape recorder, and fade-in fade-out?
With the appropriate cable or cable adapter you can plug the output from your amp directly to the AUX Input on the side of the boombox. You can then record to the cassette recorder. There are no controls on the boombox to provide fade-in fade-out, however.

How many hours of airplay does the battery charge last? Does it come with AC/DC adaptor for standard wall plugs? Thank you
The boombox comes with an ac cord to plug it into a wall socket. You use it to charge the built-in internal rechargeable battery. The hours of airplay you get on a full charge will depend on how it is being used: the loudness setting for the speakers, whether you are using bluetooth, whether you are playing or recording with the cassette player/recorder. With the speakers set to moderate volume for a small room and playing the radio I have run the radio for 10 hours with no problem.

Yes you can. You can stream in from a bluetooth connected device, such as a smart phone or a tablet, and record to a cassette in the boombox (or a usb stick, or a micro sd card in the boombox). As noted in a previous answer, you need to adjust the volume of the external device to get a good recording.
