Best Money I spent on an inexpensive Tablet
on December 1, 2017
Posted by: Marc
from New York
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this tablet on a Black Friday sale on a whim. I already own an iPad Pro so this was going to be just a supplemental device. I was pleasantly surprised to see that its build quality was good. The Fires screen, though not super high def, was more then up to the task. Its version of Android was serviceable and lo and behold with a little research you can even install Google Apps. Will it replace the iPad, nope. Is it good in its own right, especially considering its less even a third of the iPads cost? Absolutely.... Don't hesitate to pick one up, especially on sale.

Nice inexpensive blue ray player

Verified Purchase:Yes
I was looking for a blue ray player that just played disks. I Did not need wifi, apps nor an internet connection as my tv already has it all. This player fits the bill. Note that if you have an ethernet jack nearby you can hook a cable up and get all that but it's not a mandatory requirement. Picture quality is great and it's remote can also control my Samsung tv.

Fantastic turntable for vinyl lovers
on March 25, 2017
Posted by: Marc
from New York
Verified Purchase:Yes
I really have to hand it to Audio Technica. I went through what i thought was my last "turn" with Vinyl years ago, having owned a Technics direct drive. That one left this earth awhile back and when it came time to revisit the medium, the LP120 came the closest for me towards recreating what I had. Very solid, really heavy base, came with a built in preamp, great cartridge and its speed is rock solid. I recommend this one without hesitation.

Small and reliable wemo switch

Finally, I can put two wemo switches on a single wall outlet. For that alone, this one fit the bill. It is very reliable and maintains its wifi connection with little issue. For me at least, much better then the previous generation.

I bought this during bestbuys Black Friday sale for a good price. Originally picked up one but then went back for a second a day later.. Once you get these working as a stereo pair, the sound just opens up. Base is great for their size and the fact that they can play what's in my nas's MP3 collection is icing on the cake.

If you have a Mac and need a new keyboard, this one is the benchmark. Keys have nice a feel, very much like a laptop keyboard. Great that it's rechargeable. Holds a charge for a long time. I would recommend this without hesitation.

Great case, excellent build quality

Verified Purchase:Yes
This mophie case Is very well made with internal rubber cushions snugly holding the phone in place. The tops snaps off to allow easy phone removal which is more then I can say for other battery cases. Outside is just grippy enough to keep from slipping and thin enough to allow easy pocket ability. Only negative is a smaller battery reserve but I'll take that for the thinness this case gives.

I have a kindle and is there a way to put my books on a new one. My kindle stopped working and I hate to lose 450 books

if your books on in Amazons cloud, you can re-download them once its registered to your account. if they were only on the old Kindles and not backed up to your PC, unless you can mount the Kindle and move the files over, its possible they are lost .... If all else fails, you could contact Amazon's support to see if they can salvage the files.

Will the Sonos Play 1 pair with my Amazon echo?

Not yet, that's coming next year where you can control them with echo. They will play amazon music via the sonos app today.

Does this monitor have an IPS panel?

On HP.com no where is it listed as having an IPS panel. I chatted with HP.com chat and they did said that it does not have an IPS panel. Also no where on the box for the monitor does it say that it has an IPS panel so I was just wondering if Best Buy just has this labeled incorrectly?

Thanks
This Monitor is IPS
