Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought it on deep discount sale with rewards coupon so I thought I'd try it
It's basically a full sized USB without the longer casing
The smoky clear plastic protector was hard to get off at first
The drive fits in to the MacBook Pro Retina USB port fine
It formatted fine with DiskUtltity
I can see people losing these easily though

WiFi pairing button not Mac. Phone Support Great.
on May 1, 2017
Posted by: BestBuyer
Verified Purchase:Yes
Best Buy sales associate was knowledgable to help us choose the right modem for our needs.
Spectrum Time Warner cable TV and ISP and digital phone service activated the modem fine so we could get rid of the monthly lease on their modem which is why a lot of people buy their own and we could keep the modem for free to use the digital phone which they also reactivated. just so you know that’s info I wanted to know before I bought it and only saw one review elsewhere that pointed that out.
The WiFi pairing push button prominently displayed on the top of the Arris didn’t work with our MacBook Pro Retina and iPad Air2 from Best Buy.
I called Arris tech support only waited a few minutes and he spent as much time as needed with me. he was knowledgeable and helpful. he walked me thru resetting the modem on the back so we could enter the proper passwords etc on their modem web manager site. it worked.
The MacBook Pro Retina and iPad Air2 we both from Best Buy showed both a 2.4G and 5G networks.
At the end I asked why the button didn’t work and he said it’s not Mac compatible. Maybe the instructions said that and I didn’t get to it. it should have a label on top imho.
The user guide PDF has lots of info in it. but that’s why the quick start guide info didn’t work apparently.
Also look up info on the differences between 2,.G and 5G networks. I was able to set up both but it defaults to 2.4G.
Bottom line it is a very good dual band modem and the bright yellow stop call tech support before returning it to the store is what you should do if it doesn’t seem to work right away.
The modem is really a motorola branded as Arris and the Best Buy employee verified that which is good to know it’s not an off brand that showed up out of nowhere otherwise I would have been a little skeptical why everyone recommended it.
I hope that info helps. It’s the type of info I wanted to know prior to purchasing. I always by with confidence at Best buy.

Great Price Great for Movies
on December 14, 2016
Posted by: BestBuyer
Verified Purchase:Yes
Relatively easy to set up with mic and TV GUI however it set my speakers to Large when they should be small. that's easy to correct. the remote functions well. It's inexpensive but seems like good build quality. Sounds adequate with DVR cable TV box. Crisp clear sound on blurays and DVD's. It seems geared towards that use. Just enough connections including one digital coax for my Bluray player. Nice looking unit. Easy to change settings on the unit with the remote. The user manual is online. Pretty standard way to do it these days.

Nice AV for the Price DTS X
on December 14, 2016
Posted by: BestBuyer
Verified Purchase:Yes
Solid build quality, good power. Very descriptive detailed 8 step automated setup via the TV with included mic. Includes a cardboard stand you assemble. But I used my tripod. DTS X is a nice feature. Remote is nice. Has quick source selections. Can use up and down buttons to cycle back and forth thru GUI menu such as choosing DTS, Dolby Surround or DTS X easily instead of having to press a button over and over to cycle thru settings one way. Has enough inputs for what we need.

OEM quiet w iPad Air2. Watts too high for Keyboard
on March 15, 2016
Posted by: BestBuyer
Verified Purchase:Yes
The charger that came with our iPad from Best Buy is 10W. But this 12W works fine. It doesn't make an transformer noise like a counterfeit one does. It's also a bright white like an Apple charger is supposed to be. Not off-white like a knock off.
Our iPad Logitech Type + keyboard from Best Buy shouldn't be used with a charger over 5W though. It says that in the manual.
Hope that helps.

Just what my Mom needed to replace Sansone VHS
on February 18, 2016
Posted by: BestBuyer
Verified Purchase:Yes
This was purchased for my Mom. She told me what to buy. She’s used a Leslie Sansone 1-2-3 mile VHS tape for years. My Mom said the exercises are similar and also different in a good way. The biggest difference is there’s no cool down at the end of the 1 or 2 mile walks. It’s 5 min at the end of the 3 mile. It has a bonus abs and back workout. You can select each mile separately in the menu however it will stop and go back to the menu when that workout is over. It has an option to Play All. You can chose to play with Leslie talking or “Without Instruction” which means there’s music playing and you can’t hear her voice but it’s the exact same video otherwise. I didn’t try the Angle button on the remote to see if it would switch between them. The people in it are diverse in gender, age, and race fwiw. The studio is nice looking and bright with a lot of room and wood floors so it’s visually appealing. The DVD is 16:9 widescreen.

I had a Rewards Certificate and got this cheap on sale. The last one they had in store was pink. I don't mind. I use it for back-up. It formatted for the Mac with Apple DiskUtility no problems.

Great price! Quality Good AV. Look Good
on May 23, 2015
Posted by: BestBuyer
Verified Purchase:Yes
• I initially bought them on sale for $50. BB discounted the price online a couple days later. So they price matched themselves at $20 :
• Very good quality
• The mic review:
– detachable mic fits in solidly with the same type of plug at the end of the headphone cord
– the boom has small ribs that allow it to be adjusted easily
– sounds really good and very detailed like all Turtle Beach headsets
– it doesn’t sound echoey
– looks like a cool military-style
– I tried a foam windscreen (not included) on the mic and it did smooth out the inflections details my voice when I used it for iMovie voice overs (Do a search for 20mm Headset Mic Windscreen. They’re usually sold in packs. Make sure they aren’t for stage mics)
• The ear cushions review:
– semi-stiff
– not as stiff as the XO Four Stealth
– they don’t create a suction feeling like the Stealths
– not quite as comfortable as X12’s or Z11’s
– swivel solidly so you can take them on and off easy
– the covers are a soft vinyl-type ‘synthetic leather’ of material
• They sound very good. Not too much bass or treble. Just right. Not as good as studio monitor headphones of course. But still very good. You’ll be pleased.
• Adjustable headband is very comfortable
• The cable is sturdy
• I used the 3.5mm plug straight into my MacBook Pro Retina I bought from Best Buy for iMovie voice overs as I mentioned
• I didn’t need to use the inline amp nor a USB connection to my MacBook Pro
– disclaimer: I don’t use them for gaming. Just the Mac. But I’m sure they’ll work fine with the PS4.
• I tried it with a 3.5mm to 2.5mm adapter to a Panasonic Cordless phone from Best Buy. That didn’t work there was a lot of noise. But it was worth a try.
• Good-looking headset
– Nice graphics
– Speaker plates can be changed. But it only comes with the ones you see in the picture.

it works on laptops?

The 3.5mm plug goes straight into my 2014 MacBook Pro Retina headphone/mic jack (the MBP has one jack that passes both signals). I didn't need to plug the USB in. I didn't use the inline amp. Wasn't necessary for the audio I need. In fact it didn't work just by plugging in the USB. The mic and headset sound just fine plugged straight into the MBP's headphone/mic jack.
