No real issues here. I will say that sometimes (not very often) the charger would lose connection with the phone and I have to life the phone up and place it back down. It doesn't happen often enough for it to be a major annoyance.

For starters, it does increase your wifi range. However, the speeds are reduced dramatically. Up in my bedroom I was getting around 1-2 bars on wifi. Added this 4-5 consistent. But streaming anything was unbearable. Removed this from my network and streaming speeds returned to normal. So while it technically does what it's supposed to do, it's misleading in inferring that it will maintain the same speeds. I wound up buying a better router to give me 4-5 bars all over my house.

Good price and much better than Time Warner's modem. My speeds increased dramatically with this modem and no longer have to pay the rental fee.

This item does it's job. I had a different soundbar with built in sub and it was good but I wanted to separate the 2 and I hate have long wireless run around my rooms. So I got this based on the reviews and price (got it refurbed). And the difference is night a day with my other soundbar. It's a my living room in a large open area and it enhances all of my tv viewing. Movies and video games sound awesome. I have the sub behind my sofa and soundbard in front so I'm directly in the middle and it's awesome. I will say sometimes the sub will cut out for a second or 2 and I'm thinking it's because I have a couch between the 2 but it's usually no big deal and doesn't happen too often. I like it so much, I purchased one for my smaller, media room which sounds even better.

This Samsung Mini Qi EP-PG900IBUSTA charging pad's Qi inductive wireless charging technology eliminates the need for cables, allowing you to charge your Qi-enabled smartphone by simply placing it directly on the pad.
Posted by: scorpiodsu

I recently got a SGS6 edge and wanted to take advantage of the wireless charging. Was torn about which one to go with but settled on this one. I have to say it works pretty well. Charges a lot quicker than I thought it would and I haven't seen the same issues as others when they say their phone discharges when it gets to 100. I can say that my experience is the device is always at 100 when I wake up. So not sure if it's the devices that handle the charging differently, defective charging pads or my phone just sleeps well and doesn't use much battery when I'm not using it. In any event, I am satisfied and now have 3 altogether (office, bedside and mancave). My only grip is not necessarily with the pad but since the back of my phone is glass, it starts to slide as soon as you put it on there and it will continue until it's off the charger. I have since put a rear screen protector on it that allows enough traction to prevent the sliding so no more issue. So again, not necessarily the charging pad's fault but wish it had a less slick finish. Otherwise very good product

What are the qualities that make up a super hero, in your opinion? Do they have to have incredible strength? Or is it more important to have a heart of gold and a strong defense? Is it a requirement that they have the most advanced and innovative technology out there? Maybe you'd prefer a hero who can do things that no ordinary human can do. Whatever your opinion, the Marvel universe has a super hero for you. Everyone has their favorite — that one hero that you think can take on any villain and always end up saving the world in the end. In LEGO Marvel Super Heroes, you get the chance to become your favorite hero. With the likes of more than 100 celebrated characters from the Marvel sphere, including Captain America, Spider-Man, Iron Man, Wolverine and The Hulk, at your fingertips, you've got your bases covered. So villains, such as the nefarious Loki, better watch their back.Dive into a world that combines the classic videogame adventure and humor that LEGO is known for with the exciting comic book world of Marvel. In a thrilling original storyline, LEGO Marvel Super Heroes takes you on a wild ride as you fight to stop Doctor Doom, Loki and a host of other Marvel villains who have joined together to recover the broken pieces of the Silver Surfer's board in order to assemble a super weapon that gives them the power to control the world. Explore the iconic city of New York with a LEGO twist as you chase down Cosmic Bricks and battle super villains, and visit other iconic Marvel locations, including the X-Mansion, Stark Tower, Asgard, Asteroid M and an abandoned Hydra Base. No matter which hero you choose, there's an array of amazing strengths and awe-inspiring abilities at your disposal. Iron Man can fly, hover, shoot missiles and unleash a powerful energy beam straight from the Arc Reactor. Spider-Man's powers include shooting webs, using his heightened senses to spot objects that are invisible to others, crawling up walls and, of course, web swinging. Throw Captain America's shield at objects or enemies, embed it into a wall to create a platform or use it to deflect lasers and protect him from damage. BIG-fig characters, such as The Hulk and Abomination, can smash through LEGO walls and throw cars with hyper strength. Or you can create your own, unique super hero with customizable abilities. The world is in danger — are you ready to become a Super Hero?

Have fun playing this along with the other Lego games with my son. Good to have all the characters and the mild humor. At times, the camera angles can be wonky in co-op mode and sometimes a little glitchy where you have to redo something in order for the game to progress accordingly. Overall, my son and I have a good time. Waiting on the next Lego game.

Less bulky than the 360 controller. Many will find the LB and RB button a little akward but I don't think so. I think they are actualy better. It seems that they have been placed so that you can tap them with middle of the finger rather than the finger tips like on the 360 controller. Trying to use the finger tip makes it feel uncomfortable so it's a bit to get use to. Other than that, it's pretty good.
Would be 5 stars but because of the need for AA batteries, I'm docking it one. I don't buy charge and play kits. I simply buy rechargeable AA batteries and use them. It's cheaper and far more flexible for other electronics around the house. I actually only use rechargeable batteries at home now. I recommend that as an alternative to paying for a charge and play kit that you can only use with the controller.

Best Android to date. Good design and smooth OS. Camera leaves much to be desired but software updates can fix. This is the only Android I'd recommend over an iPhone.

What would you recommend me modem Netgear CM500-100NAS or Netgear CM600 to pair with my Netgear N600 wireless dual band gigabit router?
Depends on the speeds your ISP provides and the devices you use on your home network. If your ISP is not providing you anything over 500 mbps and you're not using a lot of devices or constantly streaming across several devices all the time then the 500 should be sufficient. But if have speeds more than that and you and everyone in your household are always streaming for long periods of time then the 600 would be better but the 500 will be sufficient too. 600 is a good way to future proof yourself.
I have the 500 and at any given time I have 14 wireless devices and 1 wired device. The heavy streaming devices are iPhone, iPad, Xbox One, Galaxy S7, Apple TV and a Smart TV. At any given time 3 of these devices will be streaming something at the same time. 500 works great for me. I also have a wireless camera, 2 wireless thermostats, printer, security touchpad, 3 laptops and chromecast. Those devices aren't heavy on download data often and my setup handles all of these devices perfect. I also have a nighthawk router which is more powerful than the N600.

Can samsung s6 edge this wireless charger?
I'm wondering if s6 edge can use this wireless charger. Thank you!
Yes it can. That's what I'm using it with. I want to caution that that if you don't have a case or anything, the glass back of the edge is slippery and it will slide off the pad, even on a level surface. I was able to circumvent with a rear screen protector or placing a clear, thin adhesive on the pad itself. Both works.
