I have a high end Sony smart tv, but have long been unhappy with its ability to stream over my Wi-Fi. This Roku Streaming Stick 4k (2021) has eliminated that problem! It has a superior antenna for Wi-Fi reception and transmission, and a much better processor for Wi-Fi that allows me now to stream with no drops and no buffering.
Also, I am very impressed with the simplicity of the menu system of the Roku, and the fact that they are not cluttered with distracting ads.
I highly recommend this device!

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!

Spider-Man: Far from Home - BLU-RAY [Standard]
A field trip to Europe with his classmates was supposed to provide Peter Parker (Tom Holland) with a well-earned respite from his superhero alter-ego of Spider-Man. But when he's recruited by superspy Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), Spidey is soon back on the job and teaming up with the InchMysterioInch-us Quentin Beck (Jake Gyllenhaal)-apparently a hero from an alternate universe-for a dangerous mission that may not be what it appears. Zendaya, Jon Favreau, Marisa Tomei co-star in this fun-filled Marvel sequel.

I suspect that it needs to be initialized and then formatted - operations you can do from disk management. However, it could also be a bad cable. I had a similar experience with this refurbished drive.
