Great Editing

Love this software. So many features that allows you to produce professional looking videos. Easily burn to a DVD which many applications no longer provide. Special effects are outstanding and livens up my home movies. Glad I went with Adobe on this one.

Great Laptop

This laptop is less costly than comparable models. I have a Lenovo Yoga and this laptop is quieter, just as fast, and performs comparable. Very fast boot up times, back lit keyboard and great features. If shopping for a laptop, consider this. I don't frequently give 5 stars but ths worked extremely well right out of the box.

Awesome Router
on September 19, 2016
Posted by: ammcb
This router does everything it says it will do. I get great wireless access at speeds that I have not seen before from wireless. When I had trouble with WIFI, I tried network over powerline adapters. While they worked, they would disconnect and were susceptible to power surges. I then tried Ethernet over Coax adapters. While they worked, another cable provider said it is not compatible if I switched. Regardless of the powerline or Coax adapters, I still had issues with wifi. Before the Orbi Wireless AC3000, my smart tv would pixelate, and freeze when watching Netflix. The Orbi solved everything. Fairly easy to set up, I now get a strong WIFI signal everywhere in my 4100 sq ft house. I even get a strong signal in my backyard. I was in my neighbors back yard and he didn’t have a signal but mine even reached his yard. This device is great. Speeds on my smart TV are great. Netflix is clear with no freezing or pixels. Works just like it is plugged in directly to the router. I have a provider that comes with a router, this device lets you set it up in AP mode which allows you to use it with your router. All you do is turn the wifi off on the provider router and use the Orbi to broadcast your wifi. The satellite device works from a pretty solid range and puts out a signal stronger than I ever had. Don’t be skeptical, this is the real deal. I am very critical on reviews and rarely give anything a 5 star. This is 5 star.

Great Keyboard and Mouse

This is my second one of this model. I like that it is compact yet has all the essential keys including a number pad. Mouse and Keyboard have always worked well for me. I find it easier to use than the bulky models. Battery like is OK. It's not as good as some of the competition but your not changing batters too frequently either.

This is a 16 GB flash drive and does everything you would expect. I reviewed other products but this was the best value with a brand you can trust. I have purchased off brands in the past only to have them fail. Never had a SanDisk fail.

Good Laptop

Verified Purchase:Yes
I previously owned a Yoga and purchased this one for my wife due to its compact size. It is an i3 so it is not the fastest thing out there but far better that a Celeron or Pentium chip. I was hoping the hybrid drive would give me fast boot up times like my Yoga. It does not but I do like the fact that there is a hard drive with space. The completely solid state drive models do limit you with storage. I am not disappointed and the price point is very reasonable. I considered many other options from the Surface to a Yoga 3. For the price, this was the best option.

I give this a five star because you will not find a 240hz smart TV anywhere near this price. This TV is very light and thin. Picture quality is very good with the exception of screen glare at certain times of the day. I do not believe this is unique to Vizio and this would likely occur on other brands. My right direction on my remote did not work. Vizio did replace it which took about two weeks to arrive. Smart TV features are great and fast. Netflix loads much faster than on my Samsung blue ray player. The only down fall to the smart TV component is they do not have an internet browser. Remote is quirky. The censor is on the bottom left side of the TV and the remote must be angled at that point or it might not work. It would be nice to have a keyboard on the back as well. I do not use the sound as I have a sound system but the sound did not too bad for small speakers. I would buy this TV again as the price point really makes this a great value and the picture is very sharp with the exception of occasional glare which is limited to the time of day.
Internet content most enjoyed: Netflix and Pandora

Will these work with television or a sound bar?

as long as there is Bluetooth, they will work. I have a Samsung tv that has blue tooth and it works howver, my Vizio does not have blue tooth.

what do I need to use my 23-inch monitor with my laptop

If you lap top has a monitor output, you can use a monitor cable. If the monitor has an HDMI input and your laptop has an HDMI output, you can connect that way. I use a device called Toshiba Dynadock. It connects to your computer via a USB cable and has monitor and HDMI outputs, USB outputs, and a Ethernet jack. You plug all of your devices into it so that there is only one cable to plug or unplug into your laptop when you take it on the go.

Need the mount (table) for Magnavox LD-4065 (40"TV)

I am looking for a TABLE (not Wall) mount for a Magnavox LD-4065 (40" TV). Somewhere along the line we lost the actual table mount for this TV, and would like to just have it freestanding.
My guess is you have two option. 1) contact Magnavox or a supplier and order a new table mount. or 2) mount it to the wall at the height of the table so it appears to be on a mount.. I personally would mount it to the wall if you can. It is safer and will never fall of the table. You can easily move the table to vacuum and the TV will stay in place.

TV stand

Does the TV stand allow you to swivel the TV to different angles?
no swivel built in to the stand but this TV is rather light.
