...More than adequate! I purchased this for my daughter and her excellent husband. I do NOT buy junque for either friends or family. Apple makes a quality product and this particular MacBook Pro is nothing but a quality piece of equipment.
Is it FAST? Yup!
Is it beautifully made? Yupp!
Is the screen superb-a-mundo excellente'? Yuppers!

Look, I am not here to lie to you just to make myself out to be something other than a satisfied BB & fApple customer. My daughter and her husband reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally like their new PowerBook! Like, not "love". Only a fool pretends to love something as inanimate as an inanimate device.
Buy one and I seriously doubt you will be disappointed. I am not. Again, I do NOT buy junque. Neither should you.

Philips Norelco OneBlade Pro is a revolutionary hybrid styler that can trim, shave and create clean lines and edges, on any length of hair.

Its shaving technology features a fast-moving cutter (200x per second) so it's efficient - even on longer hairs. Trim your beard to an even length with the included adjustable precision comb. Dial up one of the 14 lock-in length settings to get everything from a 5 o'clock shadow, to a tight trim, to a longer beard style. OneBlade is water resistant, so it is easy to clean: just rinse it under the tap. You can shave wet or dry, with or without foam - whichever you prefer. Rechargeable Li-Ion battery delivers 120 minutes of constant styling power after a 1 hour charge. The blades are designed for lasting performance. For optimal performance, you will only need to replace each blade every 4 months (For best shaving experience. Based on 2 full shaves per week.

We bought for use in our home gym in the garage. The extra benefit is our 16 year old Labratard pooch reeeeeally likes the breeze this thing makes. He lays in front of it and snoozes like he was a puppy again.
So then, it's great for working out and it's even better for a seasoned citizen pooch! Do I recommend it?
YES! And highly so.

And it works as advertised. I use to count my steps. I use it to count my calories burned. I use it to check my blood pressure. I use it to listen to my Pandora stations. I use it mostly for telling time!
I use it in the real world. And so will you. When you get right down to it and wrist watch is a very handy device and if it's an Apple Watch then it is handy and more. I bought the 40 mm version and while I have a 7.5" wrist, the watch looks fine on me.
I have a handicap and tend to fall. A lot. So I got this watch from Apple as my kids said I could set it up so that if I know myself out (again!) it will call for help. So far I have NOT tested that aspect of it but it is an otherwise fine timepiece and one I recommend solely on the basis that it keeps accurate time, is silent while doing so and when silence is neither wanted or needed, it can play my Pandora stations!
I have tried the EKG doohickey a few times and each time i said I was fine. I knew that... ;-) If you want a "smart" watch you could do far worse than a new fApple watch! I like mine very much! Highly recommended? You betcha!

This Roomba is El Fantasitco! Super-A-Mundo! Excellente'! It's a modern version of the Flintstone's Mammoth-Vacuum! It looks cool and it works GREAT!
I really like it. Even better, my wife likes it too. It has mapped our downstairs and can clean the whole area or just the ones you choose, Living Room. Family Room. Kitchen. Entry Way. You choose and it just does it. Nigh on flawlessly too.
Oh it may get stuck on something but so far that has only happened once out of over 39 cleaning jobs (we have furry shedding pooches!).
It took a few days to map the area but now it is sooo easy to use. I have not yet set up an automatic cleaning schedule but will do so soon. I cannot recommend this model enough! It really is that good. I can be at work and tell it to start cleaning and it does! How sweeeet is that! Hey! My older Roomba does that too! Sweeeeeeeeeeet!
This Roomba is the bestest one yet and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND it, especially so to people like myself, seasoned citizens with a slight physical handicap. It makes a clean home a clean breeze.

Well, well, well...At last!
I've been through several laptops lately and have finally found one (OoooooOOooo I hope I'm NOT jinxing myself, LOL!) that does NOT crash and give me the BSOD.
Blue Screen of Death. It's like I found where the Pope put "Limbo", LOL!
I even did all the updates and it still works! the touchscreen works too! Of the computers I've tried recently the ASUS had the bestest screen I've ever seen. But, and everyone I know has a big but so lets talk about this big but, the touchscreen was intermittent on both units I bought. An otherwise excellent laptop that was a touchscreen that didn't wanna be touched. Hmmmm...
The Lenovos I tried had the same touchscreen problem as the ASUS. It also had a nasty habit of freezing out the lower 90% if the screen when watching a movie. I documented it on my phone and showed it to my local BB Geek Squad folks. But (again!) the Lenovis had other problems. Problems that other folks also experienced and while misery may enjoy company I would prefer no one else have this happen with their new laptop.
The Lenova would NOT work. Updates froze them out and no matter how many times I RESET the laptop they would just freak out after updating and return to a $1,000+ ornament. I tend to think it was software related but it could also have been a batch o' bad motherboards. Anyway, I tried two of them before giving up on that model. Then I bought this HP.
Through it all Best Buy stood by me, I think I trade in 4 or more laptops on my way to this hopefully final one! I documented the freezing screen and the non-op touchscreen as well as the BSOD, Whether online or in the store, Geek Squad folks were helpful and supportive. The people of Best Buy are a BIG reason I shop here. People are not AI, they are people. Like you. Like me. And they understand and can put themselves in your shoes so long as you don't walk all over them. Treat them as friends, not servants. The ones at the store I use are more friends than just people I see in a store.
And like I said, so far this HP Laptop WORKING just fine! If that changes anytime soon I will be back to update my review. I like to think I out of Limbo at last.

These are for my son and so far he has nothing bad to say about them. Nothing. Nada. Nottating...
They simply work as advertised. I suppose you could ask more but that brings to mind the tale of the Fisherman's Wife. A fisherman caught a fish that talked so...He released it. When he told his wife she yelled at him that there was more there than meets the ear so he needed to go back and see if the fish would grant a wish.
Or two.
Or three.
Or more.
In the end the wife asked to be the Pope and the fisherman was tired of all the whining (and didn't want to be married to the Pope!) so he went back one more time and asked that everything be the way it was. POOF!
It was.
And what has this to do with these Senneisers?
These True Wireless 2 'phones give you what you need and so long as what you need is also what you want, they deliver. It's about the quality of life and the music that is your soundtrack. These deliver both of those.
You could ask for more but you'd foolish to do so.

I have one of these and gave another to my daughter, her husband and their daughter for Christmas. I also have a TP02, TP04 and a DP04.
I also just ordered a DP04 models for my brother and his wife and another DP04 for myself.
Why?
Because I know a QUALITY product not just when I see it but when I read about it and how it has tested and operated in the real world. I live in the real world. Dyson does NOT make junque.
I buy the best I can afford for myself and loved ones and when it comes to Air Filters that is spelled "DYSON"/

Samsung - Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G 512GB (Unlocked)
Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G is crafted so you don’t need to choose between video and photo. With a single tap, you can pull super-clear stills straight from high-resolution 8K video. Or if you’re looking to capture stunning photos, the 108MP camera feels like you’ve brought your own professional studio with you. Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G, designed to be epic in every way.
Does Samsung in general and this model in particular work well with Android Auto? My Motorola Z3 Play is awful in this regard and I am thinking of returning to Apple because of that. Thanks!

The Motorola edge is the perfect combination of a high-quality 6.8” Max Vision display that lets you watch shows on the largest display in its class. The insanely fast 144Hz refresh rate looks super smooth. Plus, true-to-life colors with improved brightness and contrast.
Does this work with Android Auto or not? The reason i ask is that I have a Motorla Z3 Play that doesn't play well with Android Auto at ALL. I had an iPhone and may go back but want to know about this model and Android Auto. Thanks!

This Sony BDP-S6700 Blu-ray player with 4K upscaling has built-in super Wi-Fi through MIMO. This lets you stream live from online services. Built-in Bluetooth and SongPal Link stream movies and music or connect your devices through HDMI, coaxial output, USB or Ethernet. This Sony Blu-ray player with 4K upscaling also offers child lock and parental controls.
I’m getting an error message stating that the BluRay and 3D BluRay discs I’m using are not compatible. I confirmed that they are Region A so could the issue be they I’m using a regular HDMI cable?
This is not a 3D capable player so it will not work on 3D discs. While there are bandwidth concerns for some 4K cables, I don't think this is a problem with Blu Ray discs. Of course I could be wrong and I have experienced problems with some Blu Ray and standard DVD where the player identifies the disc as unreadable and classifies it as a "CD-ROM". This upsets me no end as these discs worked fine in the past. If you wish to try a cable that is rated higher then you could purchase one meant for 4K data transfer rates (and NO! A fancy cable with really pretty connectors and the like is not needed, just the bandwidth transfer specs are) and see if it works but as this is a Blu Ray player that upscales to a faux 4K, that may not do a thing for you. I hope this helps.

I don't see why not, so yes! I have heard and bought cables with different ratings but this is a Blu Ray player that can "upscale" (think "Faroudja line doubling") to 4K. My brother reports no problems so far with his and he doesn't have any special cables that I am aware of. And yes, he would tell me. So then. This is a great player and should have no problems working with a standard HDMI cable. I hope this helps!

Is amazon music icon available or can I only use Amazon music through Bluetooth?
I have Pandora Plus, SiriusXM and Amazon Music Unlimited Ultra HD on my iPhone (and previously on my Android phone) and the icons show up fpr me and I have no problem playing any of those services on my Kenwood unit via CarPlay. It works great!
I hook the phone up to Blootoof and attach the Apple cable to my phone (it is plugged into the Kenwood via a USB-A cable) and BAZINGA! I have access to the aforementioned services via CarPlay.

I already have XM Radio, do I need to buy a new receiver?
You may have to have BB hook up your XM Tuner (if possible) to the unit. If that cannot be done and you want to use that feature you can purchase an XM Tuner from BB and have it connected to the device and then have SiriusXM switch your account over to the new tuner's I.D.
I have this Kenwood in my Mustang and I had them hook the XM roof antenna up with a pigtail to my portable SiriusXM player's cradle (connected to a spare input) and BAZINGA! It works great. I can also use my streaming account via my iPhone if I so choose but out n the middle of the Arizona desert I don't always have a 4G signal to stream music but I always have my SiriusXM satellite signal.

Is this radio compatible with an IPhone XR? Also meaning, that I don't want to have to use an USB port to connect my phone. Thanks, any info will be GREATLY appreciated.
This particular unit does not have Bluetooth Android Auto/Apple CarPlay capabilities. you will have to upgrade to a different model, otherwise it works absolutely flawlessly for me with the Blootoof hooked up and the Apple cable pllugged into the USB-A port. Flawlessly.

Will it work with an apple phone
Yes! It works GREAT with my new iPhone SE and I had Android prior to that and Android Auto stunk with the two different phones I tried but CarPlay works flawlessly for me with this Kenwood and I would tell you otherwise. Like Superman said, I never lie.
At last... I am soooooooooooooooooo happy with my stereo now that I have the Applie iPhone SE and CarPlay!
