Surprisingly Amazing

I was hesitant coming from my 4 year old Macbook Air which the battery was shot and that was getting kind of sluggish. But couldn't resist the black Friday deal. $630 with the keyboard. Best decision ever. The most gorgeous screen ever. Snappy and long lasting battery. I am averaging 9 hours or high 9. Its a little multitasking beast. Great security features. The intel core M will do most the work that mine old core 5 from 4 years ago could do or more. No hiccups so far. Buttery smooth. A little learning curve coming from a Mac but nothing complicated. Windows has really come a long way as far as changes and cleaning up the house. Super lightweight and convenient. Well built and honestly way more slick and sexy than my macbook air. Really happy.

Decent. Not worth the advertised price

I was able to do price matching with Amazon and that is the only reason why I consider purchasing this phone holder.
Pros: Small and easy to hide and it does posses a good grip on my phone and well built.
Cons: Price, Also doesn't seen to work with all ac vents properly. Too many bumpy roads like Miami will sure to get that shifted to the side or to even fall. Claws that attached to the AC vents could grip a bit better.
It did not fall out of my vent yet but it does shift if you go through lots of bumpy road. Aside from that it does stay in place under normal conditions and as long you don't do much interaction. For the record I do have a Cadillac CTS 2012, maybe in a different brands of vehicles or different shapes of vents might work better.

Great comeback for Nintendo

I'm only giving 4 stars because just like every other possible person that has reviewed the console knows that the console isn't flawless. I love the console and just like every other person that might have neat peak about something wishing some things would be different. Here are my pros and cons. But regardless what I say. The console is a must buy. If every title Nintendo is going to be as awesome or close to awesome as Zelda, this is a must have console.
Pros:
1- Portability
2- Nintendo library of games and future games to come.
3- Graphics are amazing for such underpowered device compared to PS4 and Xbox 1. Keep in mind still very powerful for a mobile device
Cons:
1-Battery life wish was better. (As long you don't play graphics intense games like Zelda) you can get close to 4 hours. But that is all you can ever get period. If you play Zelda you will be lucky to reach 3 hours.
2- Wish Nintendo had use more premium material. ( Neat picking)
3- More games (Hopefully coming soon. Hopefully a great shooter in the horizon besides the classic Nintendo games that we all expect)
4- Also more apps. Like I don't care about a browser but please put some Netflix, Amazon or Vudu into the device please. We need some other entertainment besides only play games. Don't need to keep in touch with my social media apps while playing games but wish there was a option to watch movies to take advantage of the nice size display.
Hopefully that will be coming soon, but overall great device to own. As long Nintendo has games on the making and hopefully coming soon not 3 years from now. This is a must have device to get your gaming needs done and hopefully even watching movies. If they can optimize the battery​ to last long enough to watch at least 2 full movies.

Great budget laptop and power performer
on January 23, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
I am really happy with Lenovo. I did a lot reading and side by side comparisons before, I even went to see the laptop in person in a Best Buy store. The laptop its a solid beauty. Battery life according to Lenovo is 8 hours but I am getting an average 5 to 6 hours solid at 75% brightness with mix use (Apps, videos and Browser). Lenovo does have an app that allows you to tweak and get even greater battery life. I tried but not my cup tea since dimmer down the screen by a lot taking away from the beautiful display, which by the way is just gorgeous at 75% and higher. Also I love Chrome, but Windows does make a case for you to use the new Edge Browser and yes I can get my 5 to 6 hours for sure if I use this browser more often then Chrome. Performance is great. No Hiccups. If you looking to do heavy gaming this laptop wont be the one you are looking for. If you looking to do some work, lots of browsing, watching movies and whatever multitasking you might up to, this is the laptop for you. At $650 this laptop is a steal, you get same power, better display, same build quality as a MacBook Air that cost way more. Yes this laptop is mighty light, even though it has a 14 inch display. Perfect size. Makes for a perfect purchase.I was so close to buy a Chromebook but for $200 more, this makes for much better purchase. Also about the number 1 complaint that most did was about the fan, which by the way there updates for that, seems there have being some exagerations. Yes you can hear a bit, but barely noticeable. The times you really hear is when you doing some extreme multitasking and heavy gaming. Core i5 koby lake gives a great performance, touchscreen, lighted keyboard and option for tablet mode( which for me its just gimmicky) but the option to flip and watch movies and presentations is very handy. Really recommend.

Great product but with few flaws
on November 18, 2016
Posted by: ProtoApocalypse
Verified Purchase:Yes
Pros: Price is no doubt one of the best reasons to buy this specific model of Amazon fire Tv. Amazing packaging and all the the you might need in the box included with what you pay. Many different choices of apps, games and the fact that is Mobile and you can take anywhere with you and connect to any tv as long you have an Amazon Prime account and connect to the internet. Option to connect a control and play games as well. If you are an Amazon subscriber this is an ideal product to do a lot great streaming. Once apps load the speed of the loading times for movies are amazingly fast. No lagging. Screen mirroring between your phone and the device is possible to 3rd party app choices.
Cons: Not enough on board memory real state, after installing a few apps and games you will start to notice a slow down in between switching apps and loading some of them. Lagging will only happen in some games. Alexa isn't all that helpful. Not all apps will take advantage of the Alexa technology. After 7 to 9 days of straight use I find myself resetting the device to clear the memory to prevent from freezing up or slow downs. Hopefully an update can fix this that way when an app is closed stays closed to prevent slows downs from others.
I believe the 3 stars are reasonable and honestly still a great buy for the price. If you just need to do streaming this is the device you must get. If you plan to get more out of this like gaming or ask Alexa to do additional things you can but don't expect fast responses at times. Also if you plan to download lots of apps and games I don't totally recommend it since it will at one point start to slow down the overall loading times in between apps. Games will have some lag as well if many apps are installed. Like I said, stick to the basics and you will get an amazing device even better than some $100 plus devices.

Launched in 2011, this design established the trend of paper-thin TV antennas. Universally compatible with all HDTVs, the Mohu Leaf 50 offers the benefits and powerful performance of our notorious design coupled with the Jolt Switch USB in-line amplifier to reach a 60-mile range. Control TV signal amplification in real time with a simple ON/OFF switch. When it’s "on", TV signals are increased for clearer picture and sound, sometimes receiving channels beyond your antenna’s standard range. When it’s "off", amplification is bypassed while TV signals are still filtered from FM and cellular interference. When plugged into your TV’s USB port, the amplifier only draws power when the TV is on, saving energy, or use the included USB power adapter with any standard wall outlet. Perfect for suburban areas, compact living spaces, single-TV homes, dorm rooms, RVs…take this efficient antenna just about anywhere you go. Easy to set up and easy on the eyes. Multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF elements receive TV signals from both sides, so you can show either side of the black or white reversible design or paint the Leaf antenna for a customized look. Note: The range of this antenna will vary greatly depending on the height, power, and frequency of signals coming from the TV tower, as well as the height of the antenna installation, the terrain, and obstacles between your home and the broadcast towers. Find your TV towers and channels by using our free Antenna Point app on your android or iOS device.

Great antenna but way overpriced

Verified Purchase:Yes
The antenna was a great but mainly due to the fact that the special that helped me save $20 off the original price. I would never bought this antenna at the regular price. Now with the good stuff, totally worth it. Great design. Image quality its amazing. Really happy. All other brands might sell cheaper, but trust me there is a difference. Big one when it comes to channels coming and going. I don't have a problem with this one. Like I said only downfall is the original price. Now if you lucky like me to get it on special $ 20 off original price by all means get this one over any brand.

Great product at a great price

Verified Purchase:Yes
Purchased the tablet for my 9 month old daughter since I notice that she loves phone screens and tablets. Keep in mind isn't intend for kids her age but make sure there is adult supervision.
Pluses: the tablet can take a good beating. Tons of hard tapping and even with the tough case can even take biting as well without causing any damage to the pink case. ( daughter is teething lol) . I'm a Amazon prime member,which gives access to tons of shows and free apps. So if you have Prime you can totally take advantage of a full library of entertainment. Some of the apps are great even for my 9 month old daughter works great to keep her entertained. Also when she is older I have tons of options to change and control. Also I get my own side she can't do anything unless I give her action.
Cons: Average battery life 5-6hours tops of nonstop use and also wish that there was a way to lock the screen while watching Amazon, Netflix or any other video app so when my daughter taps in any direction or anywhere that the videos wouldn't stop playing.

Bought this for my daughter but once in a while I share and pop some amazing Nintendo Classics for myself. Durable, great library of games and the price is just right can't go wrong with that. Only thing that I wish was better are the screen resolution and speaker aren't the greatest. Put a headphone and solves the issue. I mean my daughter won't notice this little things since is for her anyway but I did. Still...great purchase.

Amazing, reliable and totally worth it

Battery life is just amazing,10 hours plus. The lowest I got was 7 hours but due to heavy gaming (Hearthstone and Zodiac). Bought the lightening cable to transfer pictures (127 pictures in 1 min or less). Multitasking is just like apple promised. It works. No slow downs so far. Never have to worry about closing any windows or anything of this sort. Camera is phenomenal. Best in the market. People criticize the iPad Pro for not being a laptop replacement but that isn't true. This is a laptop replacement. You can do so much with this and only the people without knowledge won't get the full potential out of this tablet. Between running applications like word, excel, listening to music and growing. I was able to get around 8 and a half hours of battery and finish a beautiful presentation and add pictures that were beautifily edited and transferred from my Sony camera to my iPad Pro. All that in one charge. Beat that Surface Pro Users. The new display is just gorgeous and speakers are loud and clear. Also I recommend getting the 128 gig model. Do not get the 32 gig because you will be struggling to add apps and content. I know it's more but if you really want to take advantage of the pro version 128 gig or higher is the way to go.
