Small, convenient, not cheap

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this to connect my dual-monitor home office to. I have a work laptop and a home laptop, and I wanted something to allow me to easily switch between the two without having wires everywhere. This has done the trick. It is limited to just a couple USB ports, does not support dual HDMI screens, and does not have an audio jack. I knew these limitations when I purchased it, so I can't complain. I do think the price was a little steep for the simplicity of the product. If you want something small and convenient, and don't need more than a couple USB ports, then this could be a great option.

Excellent Quality for Amazing Price

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought two monitors for my home office (not for gaming). The picture quality is excellent, and better than I expected. I purchased the monitors on sale for $149, which I thought was an incredible value off the original price of $229. As I'm writing this review I see they are now on sale for $129. I don't play games on them, so I don't know if they would be good for gaming, but I would highly recommend these monitors for an office.

Launched in 2011, this design established the trend of paper-thin TV antennas. Universally compatible with all HDTVs, the Mohu Leaf 50 offers the benefits and powerful performance of our notorious design coupled with the Jolt Switch USB in-line amplifier to reach a 60-mile range. Control TV signal amplification in real time with a simple ON/OFF switch. When it’s "on", TV signals are increased for clearer picture and sound, sometimes receiving channels beyond your antenna’s standard range. When it’s "off", amplification is bypassed while TV signals are still filtered from FM and cellular interference. When plugged into your TV’s USB port, the amplifier only draws power when the TV is on, saving energy, or use the included USB power adapter with any standard wall outlet. Perfect for suburban areas, compact living spaces, single-TV homes, dorm rooms, RVs…take this efficient antenna just about anywhere you go. Easy to set up and easy on the eyes. Multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF elements receive TV signals from both sides, so you can show either side of the black or white reversible design or paint the Leaf antenna for a customized look. Note: The range of this antenna will vary greatly depending on the height, power, and frequency of signals coming from the TV tower, as well as the height of the antenna installation, the terrain, and obstacles between your home and the broadcast towers. Find your TV towers and channels by using our free Antenna Point app on your android or iOS device.

Good antenna, but not sure it covers 50 miles
on December 3, 2016
Posted by: Charlie
Verified Purchase:Yes
The product is good. I pick up most channels I expected to pick up, except one. ABC is supposedly 25-30 miles from my home. I have the antenna at the top of a window facing the direction of the ABC tower, but I am not picking up the channel. I bought this product because the other antenna I bought didn't pick up ABC...it was advertised at 30 miles. I was hoping the Leaf would since it is advertised at 50 miles, but no luck. I get all the same channels as the other antenna. The reason I gave 4 stars rather than less is because I like how slim and light the product is, and I like how long the cable is. I have also heard that everyone in my area of North Sacramento is having the same issue of not picking up ABC despite trying several different antennas.

Love Roku, and the stick is convenient
on November 12, 2016
Posted by: Charlie
Verified Purchase:Yes
Switched from DirecTV to Roku, and subscribed to PlaystationVue. The move saved me $100/mo and my wife and I still have all the channels we normally watch. That includes all the sports I watch, which was my biggest fear in switching. The Roku stick is a great device for us because we have two TVs that are almost never used at the same time. We can move the stick between rooms easily. I also love the idea for taking it with me when I travel. Many hotels are adding HDMI ports for in their rooms, so you can take your TV with you. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because there have been some glitches with the screen freezing occasionally. When that happens we have to restart the device, and then it works fine. Very annoying, but still better than paying for DirecTV.

Love the Roku, but Glitchy
on November 11, 2016
Posted by: Charlie
Verified Purchase:Yes
I love the Roku, and am so glad I cancelled DirecTV. I subscribed to PlaystationVue and still get all the channels my wife and I watched on DTV, but we are saving $100/mo. I'm a big sports watcher, and I still get all my sports through PSVue. The user interface for Roku is easy to use. The ability to create a list of shows and movies you like, and then get updates on when they are available, or when prices drop on many different apps is a fantastic. My only complaint is the device seems to be a bit glitchy. The remote goes in and out, so my wife and I use our phones as the remote as a default now. I've also had some issues with losing the picture, and then have to restart the Roku for it to work again. These issues are annoying, but I'm still happy to have the Roku. My guess is some of the glitches are related to buying the first release of the new device...I bought it the first day it was available.

Better than expected

1. The fit is better than I expected. It is actually very comfortable. I thought wearing a watch would be annoying, but it hasn't been at all.
2. The data on the watch (Steps, BPM, Calories, Distance) really keep you aware of how much or how little exercise you've done. It definitely helps push me to do more.
3. The GPS feature is fantastic...I love data like average pace, distance, steps, average BPM, etc. And the map views on the website are great too.
4. The user experience from the watch, to the app, to the website are very well done.

Solid 2-in-1 for a good price

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this for my brother-in-law. He was looking for a cheap laptop. This device was within his budget and also is a 2-in-1, so we bought it. It is primarily used for online video streaming. It has worked well and been reliable. The only issues have been Google Chrome crashing...we've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but there are still issues with. There haven't been issues with other browsers.

Quality is good, but there are better options
on June 24, 2015
Posted by: Charlie
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought a pair of these and a pair of the JBL in-ear BT headphones. The sound quality was a little better with Beats, but the earpiece doesn't stay in as well as the JBLs, so the overall sound wound up being better with the JBLs. I also found the JBLs to be more comfortable and stable, which surprised me because I thought the style of the clip-on Beats would be more comfortable and stable. The Beats were also more expensive, so overall I would recommend the JBLs over the Beats.

Good quality, comfortable, great for workouts
on June 24, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
These headphones have a good quality sound (not amazing, but good). They are comfortable and stable in your ear, so they are great for work outs. Overall these are a solid choice for the price. I also tried the Beats BT in-hear headphone. Beats sound quality was slightly better, but the buds don't stay as deep in your ear, so the sound quality isn't as effective as it could be. Plus Beats are quite a bit more expensive. If you're looking for good quality, in-ear, BT headphones, I would recommend JBL.
