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.

Great Flash Drive

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.

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

Do these come with extra inserts? I love the cone type insert that seems to fit my ears better. They were on the old wired beats by Dre and then the pair that went around you neck and were magnetic.
they come with different size inserts

Is the tablet portion of the laptop detachable like a 2 in 1? or is it attached like a normal laptop?
It doesn't detach but it pivots differently. It's not flimsy and it swings from the center. Hard to expaling but it gives you some really different setting versus the ones that just swing at the hinge.

Does this Wemo WiFi smart plug-outdoor, connect to a mesh WiFi system. I have some Wemo smart mini plugs thatonly connect to 2 ghz routers. The Mesh system I have doesn’t distinguish between 2 and 5 ghz bands, so the Wemo mini plugs do not connect my wifi
I have mine on a mesh system but that doesn't mean it will work on yours. It depends on the brand. While I cant see it not working, I can't account for every type of router.

I actually have 3 questions. Is this device gfi protected? Can I control each outlet separately? I’ve yet to see a straight answer on that question What are the current and temperature ratings for the device?
It is not a GFI outlet. Technically, outlets outside should be GFI by code negating the need for this to be GFI. You cannot control the outlets independent of each other.. Both are either on or off and controlled together as a pair. .
