I was able to use the motion sensor to trigger lights that are synced with my Samsung Smartthings hub.

This is a fantastic little device.
There is a learning curve along with integrating it into your work flow. This is with anything new you have.
So, this device uses AAAA (quad A) batteries. I was told that it would last approx. 1 year under normal uses. Don't let that stop you from buying this device.
It comes with extra "nibs" for use with they type of screen you have. We had to change ours out to work properly with our screen. There are a lot of different types of screens and surfaces. You just need to match yours up.
It connects via bluetooth. The button on the end selects different options. These options are customize-able with in windows settings. I assume it is the same within Apple products.
There are also two buttons on the side to activate different functions. i.e. press and hold to erase.

I have always liked Energizer batteries.
I got this for a watch. But, for me the battery did not fit. It is the watches fault, not the battery.

Great "little" laptop
on September 3, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
For everything that is crammed into this "little" laptop, it's fantastic.
Why did I give it 4 stars then?
The weight, it comes in at 3.64 lbs. It is not heavy by any means. But, at this price, they are all about 1/4 lbs. within each other. When you jump up to the next price point, the weight goes down, it is quite noticeable. It can even be described as "light". (i.e. The Lenovo Yoga 720 comes in at 2.87 lbs.) But, they roughly start at $225 more. Everything is roughly the same except for weight. You have to decide if spending more than $225 is worth the weight savings.
There is a SSD Hard Drive, very fast. 8 GB of ram which is DDR4. There is a SD card reader built in, but no CD/DVD drive. There is Bluetooth and a webcam built in with two microphones. The screen is nice and sharp along with being a touchscreen. The screen is Full HD, 1920x1080. WiFi is AC. I like the fact that it had a full size HDMI port.There is 1 USB-C port and 1 USB 3.0 on board. There is also a USB 2.0. The video card is integrated which is an Intel HD graphics 620. There is also a combo headphone/mic jack.

We redid my son's "entertainment" area and made his Xbox 1 the hub for all things entertainment.
So, we wanted a remote to use other than the gaming controller.
We ran accros the Xbox original and this one.
This was cheaper, but also longer. My thought was it would be harder to lose. It has a few more buttons then the Xbox version.
This remote works well and is much eaiser to navigate with than using the game controler.

The EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti hit the perfect spot for that upgrade you know you need, but at the price you want! With the latest NVIDIA Pascal architecture, the 4GB GTX 1050 Ti displays stunning visuals and great performance at 1080p HD.

Bought a new PC which only had on board video. I do a lot of Still and Video editing. While the onboard Video card was OK, adding a dedicated Video Card was a great move.
4gb of dedicated ddr5 VRAM....what can I say. It handled my Photoshop with ease.
It is decently quite. But, as many of you may know, gaming and image editing can put a load on a card. I am glad it has dual fans.

A solid machine

12 g of ram. a stick of 8 and a stick of 4. I would have preferred 16 (8x2), but 12 is plenty. I do a lot of photoshop and video editing. Not sure how this stacks up as a gaming machine, but for my picture and video editing it works great.
There is a SSD drive as the main drive and a 1TB HD for storage. The SSD drive is fast.
The i7 processor works through my images without a hitch.
The onboard video is great for what it is. For me with the picture and video editing, I decided to upgrade to a monster 4g card. But, before I switched, it was able to handle my editing needs.
The case is nice, not overly large and decently quite. Video editing is quite taxing on the system, so you can hear the fan speed up to handle the load. This is a normal thing on all PC's

I just bought a new lenvevo laptop with the bamboo ink pen and it does not work, it connects to the laptop, it can open everything, but it does not write at all the screen does not detect the pen I AM ANNOYED does anyone know how to fix it

Try changing the nibs. There are different ones that came with the pen. You need to match the right nib to the type of screen you have. There is a hole in the nib holder. Put the pen in there and angle slightly, then pull the pen to separate the tip. Try the different nibs until you find the best one for your screen type.

I bought this pen with and a laptop last night. I the pen will not connect to the laptop via Bluetooth. The blue led light will not blink on and connect. I connected my cell to the laptop with no problem. I'm thinking I bought a bad pen.

Not a bad pen. Check to see if Bluetooth is set to on on the laptop. You normally need to go into settings and manually toggle it on. Then press and hold down the end button on the pen until light comes on.

Will this stylus work with my lenovo edge 2 in 1? one of the tech guys told me it would work and it pairs on the Bluetooth and the button works but for some reason i cant draw or write or do anything else with it

Yes is should. Look for the ink icon on the bottom right. You will need to go into settings and make some adjustments. We had to do this on our Lenovo 720. It will give you options for the buttons. Unfortunately, not quite pair then plug and play.

Can I use this graphics card in my HP Desktop PC Pavilion 510-P136?

This card should work. As with most higher end Video cards, you have to make sure your power supply can handle the load. You need to know what your power supply outputs and what your video card asks for.

Other then that, you just need to have the physical space inside the case. Some of the mini towers may not work.
