I purchased the 8" model a year ago, and it was a no brainer to purchase this when it was offered on sale recently. I needed a unit with a large screen for use in the bedroom, that was easily readable with my glasses off. I use it regularly to play relaxing music or sounds to help me go to sleep. I can easily play music from local radio stations by issuing verbal commands, and instructing it verbally to turn off after a set interval. I recommend it strongly.

This premium memory card is an excellent choice for the Panasonic Lumix ZS100. It permits the taking of 20M pixel images effortlessly, as well as taking 4k video smoothly. I purchased it on an excellent sale at Best Buy - which happens on a pretty regular basis at this fine store. I recommend it highly.

This pouch is an excellent fit for my new Lumix ZS100! It is spacious enough to provide room for the camera and its wrist strap. The outer pocket provides space for two spare batteries, a spare memory card, and the charging cable. The pouch provides protection from the weather, and is spacious enough to make removing the camera easy and quick - essential for taking candid shots in the wild and in urban settings. It is also small, making it inconspicuous while moving about - both in the woods, and in foreign cities.

I purchased this over a year ago to upgrade my system drive on my desktop PC - it used a 1 TB WD mechanical drive (5400rpm). Moving the system to the new SSD was easily accomplished using the Acronis True Image software (which I recommend strongly). With the new drive my PC seems to run like a rocket! I am very pleased with this drive, and recommend it highly.

I make a couple of trips a year to Europe for holidays, and I take lots of photos while on these trips. I travel light, and need to back up my photos while on the go. This drive has worked very well for me! So good in fact that I bought a second one, and then splurged on the 1TB model. These drives are very durable, small, light, and 100% reliable. I recommend them highly.

I purchased this for my new Xbox One X. I want to be able to use it for Skype with family members from the comfort of my living room. Installation couldn't have been simpler - simply plugged it into an available usb port. When I brought up the Skype application, it recognized the camera and provided menus for the options I wanted to use. I was done with the setup in no more than 2 minutes. Both the image and audio provided by the camera are good, and provoked compliments from family members at the receiving end. For those looking for a moderately priced webcam to use for Skyping, it will be difficult to find a better choice.

I bought this drive to provide external storage for my new Xbox One X, for music, videos, etc. Installation was easy - just plugged it in.
The Xbox immediately recognized it. There was no need to do anything else! I have been using WD external drives for over 20 years, and not once have had any kind of problem. For those looking to expand the drive capacity of their Xbox One X (or S),
I strongly recommend this unit.

I have wanted to do high end gaming for some time, and had come to the realization that it would be impossible to do it on my home computer, and found it also impossible to upgrade it to do so. When I learned about the Xbox One X console I was intrigued, and started to look into it. I was astounded to learn that it had the gaming capability of a high end gaming pc, as well the ability to play 4K Ultra HD Blu-Ray movies. On top of that, its cost was a small fraction of what it would cost for a gaming pc with the same features. To top it off, the unit looks good in my living room under my 4K Sony TV. I pulled the trigger and ordered it just two days before it was sold out, and consider myself fortunate to have obtained one of the last units presently available.
I have been playing with it almost a week now, and it simply blows me away. The games in 4K are like interactive movies.
I have found it possible to have already amassed a collection of almost 20 games, by taking advantage of the many sales and discounts at Best Buy. I have already filled the 1TB drive in the machine!
A few add-ons I have added to my system are:
WD My Book 4TB Ext. USB 3.0 Drive (for games and apps)
WD Easystore 2TB Ext. USB 3.0 Drive (for music, videos, etc.)
Logitech C615 Webcam (for Skype)
Sennheiser Game One Headset
For anyone wishing to get into high end gaming at a moderate cost, you can't do better than this machine! I highly recommend it.

I've had this boombox now for over two months, and am still surprised at how happy it makes me. I retired almost a year ago, and it brings back memories of my college days during which a box like this was my sole means of entertainment. I have a large collection of cassette tapes that I wished to digitize before they crumbled to dust, and this has made that task easily doable. But in the process of doing this I discovered that these old tapes sounded incredibly good! I was also surprised at how well preserved these old tapes (many over 40 years old) were. This box has a good stereo cassette player, and also a good radio. The fact that it also incorporates so much useful new technology greatly enhances the pleasure it provides. I strongly recommend this boombox for your purchase - the value it provides far exceeds it's price.

 FLTR - FLTR95 Sealing Face Masks 10-Pack - White
FLTR - FLTR95 Sealing Face Masks 10-Pack - White
FLTR95 Sealing Face Masks use a melt-blown polypropylene filter that is highly effective, offering ~95% filtration of airborne particulates @ 0.3+ microns. And, unlike cloth or surgical masks, Sealing Face Masks are designed to reduce particles inhaled by the wearer. The tight face-to-mask seal of the FLTR95 reduces leakage and directs inhaled air through the filter membrane to minimize inhaled particles. Secure fitting ear loops pull the mask back snugly against the face, while the folded form factor and adjustable nose piece conforms well to a variety of face shapes and sizes. The multi-layer construction uses materials selected to deliver the functionality required by demanding wearers. An outer layer provides a barrier against large particles and droplets. The filter layer uses a purpose-built melt-blown polypropylene membrane to capture small particles and aerosols. Lastly, dual comfort layers help to wick moisture and heat from exhaled air away from the mouth and face. FLTR95 masks undergo a rigorous and continuous quality control and testing process to ensure a consistent, reliable standard. They are produced at internationally certified facilities, tested on state-of-the-art technical equipment at FLTR~s QC department, and verified by independent 3rd party test labs. Since face masks can accumulate airborne particles and moisture over time, FLTR95 masks are intended for single use only and can easily be disposed of after use. Not for medical use. This personal protective mask cannot eliminate the risk of contracting infectious disease. Intended for single use only ~ discard after use.
 

How many layers does this mask have? Nowhere in the Overview or in the Specifications does it explicitly give this information.

 Philips - Wireless Over-Ear Noise Canceling Headphones - Black
Philips - Wireless Over-Ear Noise Canceling Headphones - Black
The Philips PH805 headphones give you control over what you hear and what you don~t, no matter what the day brings you. Enjoy your favorite songs in Hi-Res Audio during your morning workout in wireless freedom. Switch to Google assistant to check your flight information with a touch, and then enjoy your flight in silence by activating noise canceling. And enjoy your videos in high quality sound once you get to the hotel. One set of headphones can now cover all of your needs. With the PH805, you control what you hear and what you don~t hear. A tap to the ear-cup will activate noise cancelation, so you can be enveloped in a shroud of silence when you need to concentrate or rest. If you want to turn the volume down on the world but still hear louder sounds like someone speaking to you, simply activate Awareness Mode with another tap. The PH805 comes with Google Assistant, which allows you to manage your life on the move, without taking out your phone. Just touch the headband to activate it. Open your calendar, read notifications from your phone, call or send messages to friends, or check the weather simply by asking Google Assistant. The PH805 is also a quality headphone set that delivers detailed, high resolution sound, which you can use as your go-to headphones for home or on the go entertainment. Hi-Res Audio means that they are capable of playing back lossless audio at a higher sample rate than most headphones and CDs when connected to a high-res source. The benefits of the PH805 last for a full 30 hours, making them an ideal solution for every situation you find yourself in throughout the day (and night). You get up to 30 hours of play time (or talk time) with noise canceling off, or 25 hours of use with it on. If you need an extra 2 to 6 hours of battery life, 5 to 15 minutes of charging will be enough. The Philips PH805 has you covered. And when you are finally through using the Philips PH805s, they fold right up into a compact travel case, making them convenient to take with you wherever you go.
 

How much lag is there when these headphones are used to watch tv? Is it noticeable?

I have made many recordings from cassette to USB. All of them are MP3 with a bitrate of 128kbps.

When this hits the end of the tape (play or ff/rw), does it continue to put tension on the tape or do the motors stop?

When in Play mode, the motors do automatically stop at the end of the tape. However, when in FF or RW modes the motors do NOT stop - and will continue to put tension on the tape.

Does this boombox have any audio output options? Like, could I connect it to a home speaker set up and use it as a just a cassette player?

It has a headphone out that works well for connecting to other audio devices, such as speakers. It also has an Aux In connection that allows you to input to it signals from other audio devices.

You can use the right earbud by itself, while the other is in the case or off. However, the left earbud can NOT be used by itself with the right earbud off or in the case.

Are these compatible for listening to movies provided by airlines?

Yes. They simply plug into the audio jack on the seat. Because they have an L-shaped plug, they are easier to deal with for those seats where the audio jack is pressed against your side.

How long is the battery life

These earbuds do not have a battery. They are wired and simply plug into the phone jack.
