They're good and getting better all the time.

Obviously the comparison nowadays is between the Google Home and the Amazon Echo/Alexa. I own both. Response to voice commands is good on both is good, but the database accessible to Google is much more in-depth. Both access music services and can operate other items on your home WiFi system. It seems that Google does operate a few more that I have purchased over the years, but both are expanding their in-home commands. However, I get a little frustrated when I hear "I can't help with that yet." Overall, I like the Google Home so much that I bought 5 of them this year to give to friends who have never had such a thing or didn't know about the technology. I hope they enjoy theirs as much as we have enjoyed the one in our home!!!

Exactly what you expect: a sturdy cable at a reasonable price. The 4-foot length helps in most situations.

A must-have to enjoy your AirPods

Verified Purchase:Yes
The AirPods are truly an electronic and acoustic marvel, but the ergonomics of the earpiece... not so much. They do not fit my ear (they fall out easily). I'm glad I thought ahead and purchased the accessory that helps keep them in place.

Why I bought from Best Buy

I can count on Best Buy to have the merchandise available and shipped to me quickly AND the price is lower than other sources offering the AirPods online. The AirPods are truly an electronic and acoustic marvel, but the ergonomics of the earpiece... not so much. They do not fit my ear (they fall out easily). I'm glad I thought ahead and purchased the accessory that helps keep them in place.

This is an awesome printer/scanner/copier/fax. I bought one last year for my home and was so impressed that I bought one for my condo, too, since we spend a lot of time there. It has an easy on-screen menu and reproduces excellent copies and documents. HP is a reliable printer manufacturer and their service is top notch. Why not go with the best?

Sturdy.

This comes in two basic pieces. One is screwed into the TV and the other is mounted on the wall. The TV piece attaches in about 3 minutes. The wall piece takes about an hour to do it right. The two mate up perfectly and you know the TV is very sturdily attached to the wall.

Samsung leads the field.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I began purchasing Samsung TVs about 6 years ago. After having excellent experiences with their products i won't buy anything else. I have 2 55" TVs (this model is one), one 22", and one 78" HDTVs -- all Samsung. I highly recommend you spend a little more money to get the very best quality. The picture quality is almost unbelievable. I put this one in the living room of my condo and it is the perfect size for that room. The best viewing angle is wide... based on experience I'd say about 120 degrees, but in practicality it is a little wider if you have to squeeze more people in the room for a game.

Bose® SoundLink® III Cover: Customize the look of your Bose® SoundLink® III Bluetooth Speaker with this cover, which lets you add a touch of style while guarding against scratches and abrasions.
Posted by: Alfred
Verified Purchase:Yes
A nice touch if you are going to be moving your Bose speaker around the room. It fits well and adds to the overall appearance of the Bose speakers. The only reason I read it 4 instead of 5 is that there could have been an acoustically transparent cloth cover over the speakers (the speaker area is not covered).

Flip the switch on this mophie juice pack air, and give your iPhone 7+ or 8+ extra power for talking or scrolling through social media. The hard-plastic construction adds additional protection without adding weight. Simply slide your phone into the mophie juice pack air, connect it with the lightning charger and get up to 28 hours of additional calling power.

My 3rd (or 4th?) Mophie
on April 21, 2017
Posted by: Alfred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Every time I upgrade my phone I can't get full use of it without upgrading my battery case. Mophie has consistently produced quality battery cases for each of my phones that add little to the overall size of the phone but adds much protection from drops. I always add a screen protector to complete the protection. The case will outlast the phone itself. My only complaint is that you have to ditch your iCords for mini-USB connections.

Bose quality (great sound, understated beauty)
on April 21, 2017
Posted by: Alfred
Verified Purchase:Yes
We bought this as a sound source for our condo without wanting to purchase a large system that would be too much for a condo and likely disturb the neighbors. This product is a perfect balance of clear, crisp treble and resounding bass while fitting in with an upscale decor. The only downside is I would never leave this in the condo if it was rented because some visitors might find it impossible to leave it for the next renters.

Impress family and friends with this 43-inch LG television. The 4K resolution produces vivid colors and stunning details to bring a scene to life, and Wi-Fi is integrated to provide access to your favorite streaming sites. This LG television has three HDMI ports, so you can connect a gaming console or HD device.
When connected to my WiFi it will either bump me from my secure signal immediately, or else “connects” with poor streaming or else claim there is no connectivity. Is there any reset for the wireless card, or update the wireless software?
2 things:
It sounds like a problem with your router or internet service. Are there other devices that experience the same problem when on your system?
However, I do not know if you can update one component of the TV, but the software updates automatically when first connected to the internet. I assume/hope it will update as new software is pushed out like Samsung and Sony devices.

Can the TV be mounted on a stand instead of using the legs?
No, but the legs are surprisingly with well-positioned to keep the TV upright. We used the legs temporarily and would have continued using them, but we had other plans. There are holes in the back for mounting using a wall mount, which is what I did. I suppose you could use those holes to attach the TV to a stand IF you could find a stand with (1) holes exactly the same distance apart and (2) the stand would balance the TV properly. Good luck with that. I’d go for the wall mount.

Can it charge inside the case with the ear bud on? Or do I have to remove the earbud each time to charge?
You must remove the earbud covers to recharge your AirPods.

Other and what are they do
I could not keep my AirPods in my ears without these devices. You don't get any instructions on how to use them, but after a few minutes contemplating the issue, the answer was obvious. Once you get each AirPod into the covers, rotate them in your ears until you find a position where they are secure. The downside is you must remove the covers to recharge the AirPods.
