Good Picture, Set-up Nightmare
on April 20, 2018
Posted by: TomA
from Tulsa OK
Verified Purchase:Yes
This Samsung smart TV has a decent picture, but not what I was expecting. I purchased a Samsung sound bar to go with it. The sound was average at best. The worst part of the process was the set-up. There is a very minimal written owner’s manual included & I had to go to the internet to get a full blown manual. That was a pain. I’m not a novice at setting up a TV. In the end, I didn’t think the picture, sound & set-up was worth my time and returned it all to Best Buy.

Unfold the full-size Smart Keyboard when you need it, then fold it to create a durable and lightweight cover when you don't. No need for batteries or pairing. It's just as easy to use as it is to take with you.

Not What I Was Hoping For

This WiFi range extender was not what I was hoping for. I had issues getting it connected to my internet & was never able to get it to provide 5.0GHz connection. I was not impressed with the performance as far as extending my internet connection.

I love the iPad Pro. This latest generation is the best! The screen is larger. The screen is crystal clear. It is fast! I purchased the WifI-Cellular version with 512GB of storage. This holds as much as many computers! It is a great, great iPad!!

The Celestron EclipSmart 10x25mm Solar Porro Binocular is one of the most convenient ways to enjoy safe, detailed, magnified views of the Sun anywhere. These full-size solar binoculars are the perfect grab-and-go option for eclipse chasers or for those studying sunspots any day. Best of all, Celestron EclipSmart binoculars feature Solar Safe filter technology, ensuring ultimate protection from harmful solar radiation. Unlike detachable filters, which can be knocked off unexpectedly, EclipSmart Solar Binoculars feature built-in filters embedded in the objective lenses. Enjoy the Sun with confidence, knowing it’s impossible for the filters to become dislodged while you or your loved ones are observing. Solar Safe Filter Technology: EclipSmart solar products feature Solar Safe filter technology—the ultimate protection from harmful solar radiation—including IR and UV light—plus 99.999% of visible light. Celestron Solar Safe filter technology is SAFE for direct observation of the Sun and has been independently tested to conform to and meet the transmission requirements of ISO 12312-2:2015(E), Filters for Direct Observation of the Sun. Important safety note: inspect your binocular’s objective lens filters before every use. Do not use and discard if damaged, scratched, or separated from the frame in any way. Crystal Clear View: With its multi-coated optics, the Celestron EclipSmart 10x25mm binoculars deliver high-contrast images of the Sun. These are white-light solar binoculars that provide a clear black-and-white image of the Sun. The Celestron EclipSmart 10x25mm Solar Binoculars also provide a generous field of view, so you can see the complete solar disk without moving the binocular. The Body: A durable, rubber-armored aluminum housing protects your EclipSmart binocular from damage without weighing you down. The binoculars are comfortable to use for eyeglass wearers and non-eyeglass wearers alike, thanks to their durable folding eyecups. Fold them down for safe and effective use with your eyeglasses or keep them unfolded if you don’t wear glasses. Accessories Included: Carry your EclipSmart binocular with the comfortable included strap. The binocular also includes a protective padded nylon case for storage and transport, and protective eyepiece and objective lens covers. Upcoming Eclipses: 2023 - On October 14, 2023, the famed “Ring of Fire” will encircle a darkened Moon during a spectacular annular eclipse. This phenomenon occurs when the Moon is too far from Earth to cover the Sun completely. The Sun's corona is not visible during an annular eclipse. 2024 - On April 8, 2024, the Moon will completely cover the Sun during an awe-inspiring Total Solar Eclipse. Observers within the path of totality will witness the sun’s dazzling corona, the “diamond ring” effect, and day turn to night.

Not What I expected...Read the Description
on October 2, 2017
Posted by: TomA
from Tulsa OK
Verified Purchase:Yes
This was not what I was expecting. I knew they were eclipse binoculars, but I thought they could also be used as regular binoculars as well. That is not the case. Even during the eclipse, it was difficult to find the sun. I had better luck with $5 eclipse glasses. They are not worth $35 for just when there is an eclipse. I take responsibility for not reading the information carefully. Luckily, Best Buy allowed me to return them. Love the myBestBuy program!!

Great Remote

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is my second Harmony Remote. It is a great remote and works with both my video & audio devices. Setting up a Harmony Remote the first time takes some time and patience, but it will be worth it. Setting up the second was much easier. Best Buy had a great price, as well.

Supply hoses have come a long way. When we bought a new fridge, we replaced the old copper line with this flexible hose. It's great and no worries about bending or crimping the copper tubing.

Worth the C note

I've found, it is worth the extra $99 for the added protection for iPads & iPhones. I can be clumsy sometimes & I like the peace of mind I have in case I drop it or decide to take it for a swim.

Stay connected with this Apple iPad mini 3. It uses built-in Wi-Fi connectivity or optional 4G cellular service to get online, and its Retina display provides sharp, crisp resolution for videos and photos. The FaceTime camera built into this 64GB Apple iPad mini 3 lets you capture HD video footage.
 

Is this an unlocked iPad? Or does it work with a specific provider? If so, please let me know the provider. Thank you.

Unless you buy through a cellular contract, it is unlocked.

does this use batteries

They have built in batteries that can be recharged, but cannot be replaced. When they die, you have to buy a new remote.

Hi, I need to replace the remote for our Pioneer Elite home theatre system. Will this provide 100% control of these devices?

Depends if the components are on the Harmony list. There seems to be a massive list, but sometimes models aren't there. I'd buy one and try it and if it doesn't work, take it back.
