Nice selection of countries.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I purchased two of these gift bags for a friend of mine who has a little foreign coin collection and he wasn’t disappointed going through them. It’s always fascinating to see coins minted in different shapes, sizes and from different materials. It’s also exciting to see coins that are no longer in circulation, let alone ones from countries that don’t exist anymore or are independent from their colonialism such as Hong Kong.\n\nThe only complaint (if you can even call it that) was that one of my bags had several dozen euros inside and that nothing we received was older than the late 60’s; but again, the mixed lot was enough for us to more or less overlook those facts.\n\nYour bag will be different. It’s an absolute gamble, so if you know a young numismatist, a lover of foreign coins or just need a few pieces for a project or craft; you’ll probably truly enjoy this little grab bag!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I am very satisfied.

Great deal.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Enjoying the artwork of countries currency which I would never have seen otherwise, including some Euros which feature artwork from countries' prior coinage prior to switching to Euros. The coins soaked in dish soap water overnight to get rid of the finger-blackening grime on some of the coins (reminescient of residue from a gas station) and this bag of wonders turned out exactly as I hoped it would."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Came packaged in adorable little drawstring bags AND further protected with plastic baggies as well. I am not an avid coin collector so I'm not sure on the rarity or value of the coins I received but they all look unique with very few duplicates! In my opinion, a great gift for any coin lover, young or old!"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I bought these for my grandkids to find with a metal detector.

Coins from Brazil, Guatemala, Mexico, Italy, France, Euros, and many far east countries that I cannot read the languages on the coins."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-3 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I received the shipment on time. No problem there. Counted 64 coins from 29 countries, very nice. I gave a three review based on two things. First, the coins were very dirty. I recommend a pair of gloves!!! Next, while I received more coins than I expected, there were many duplicates. As many as six English one pence coins. Also, five from India, same coin, etc. With a grab bag, you can expect to get some dupes, but by the time you separate them out I doubt that you would get the fifty as advertised.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I needed a birthday present for my 7 year old grandson.

I bought these coins and was really pleased with the selections and my grandson spent a lot of time looking and sharing with his family the cool coins he received. So it was a great buy.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Awesome bag!

Most of them were heavily corroded. I'd say 4 were in decent shape with the zinc plating still intact while the rest of them didn't have that. Approximately 15 others looked alright without the plating . I received one fake '43 copper penny in my roll. I can't lower my rating too much further than this, because they are in circulated condition.

Upon opening the package, I noticed there are two sets of US electrical outlet prongs. They must have read all the reviews of plugs falling apart and now include two sets. The fit of the prongs on my unit seems secure and there's no flexing/separating like others have mentioned. Hopefully they have fixed this (former?) problem. One thing I did notice when I removed the prongs was that the connection to the unit is the same style plug as is found on many electrical adapters. The cord shown in the attached picture is from an old radio, but I also have this style cord on laptop power bricks, video game consoles, etc. So even if the prongs were to fall apart or be lost, this option still works.

But for now I have to say this item is a great deal."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I purchased this charger in February and have used it for a little over six weeks now. My original idea was to use it as a backup charger for my MacBook Air M1 (M1 2020) purchased last year, and possibly use it as a backup charger for my MacBook Pro 15" (Mid 2014). To enable the latter, I included a "Nylon Braided USB C to Magnetic Charging Cable Cord" in my original order with the charger.\n\nI expected that the charger would work with my MacBook Air M1, but was not sure about it working with my older MacBook Pro and it\'s MagSafe connector. For this function a good USB-C to MagSafe cable cord would be required. The cord I selected was a pink nylon braided cable by Yoamp, just short of 5 feet in length. Though it had few reviews, they were all positive, so I felt it was worth the risk. (Side note - I decided on pink so that it would be easy to identify and locate visually.)\n\nAs expected, the charger worked very well with my MacBook Air M1, recharging the laptop a little faster than the original Apple charger. Though I don\'t use this charger as much as the original charger, I\'ve have no problems when I do use it. Also, the charger never seems to get more than warm; unlike other chargers that I\'ve read about.\n\nAs for my MacBook Pro 15", I found that connecting the Yoamp cord to this charger, and then my laptop didn\'t seem to work - at first. However, upon further inspection, I realized that the USB-C connector needed to be pushed in a little more to created a "click" and solid connection with the charger. Once that was done everything seemed to work perfectly. In subsequent uses, the charger never seems to "heat up" though it will get slightly warm at times. Overall I\'m extremely please with it in this function.\n\nIn conclusion, after 6 weeks of use, this charger has performed well in a dual purpose role. As a backup charger for my MacBook Air M1 it\'s close to a perfect choice. As a backup for my 2014 MacBook Pro 15", I have no complaints so far. I will update this review if I discover any new characteristics or problems.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 21, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'MSI doesn\'t sell replacement chargers so when your life partners run over it with a chair in an ignorant yet violent manner, you gotta flex your head to find a solution if you ever want to use your laptop again after the battery runs out.

It also means this one is smaller and more portable than the much larger one that comes from Apple. That\'s a real every day benefit.\n\n2. This one comes with a USB-C --> USB-C cable. Works perfectly fine, but it\'s not the magnetic magsafe charging cable that comes with the laptop from Apple.

It is tiny but it works great. Here is the thing, know what to expect and you won’t be disappointed.\n\nPositives:\n\n-The new Fire OS is a significant improvement. It is closer to current android, and it is intuitive-ish if you have used an Android phone before.\n\n- The processing power and the responsiveness improvement is significant when compared to the previous gen. The promotional material states that it is 30% faster and after trying it, I agree.\n\n- Live view on another Amazon device, using specific skills like Ring or WYZE, using Alexa, in general having this as a portable automation control at your fingertips, works very well.\n\n- Still has a headphone jack.\n\n- Lots of battery time.\n\n- Supports up to 1TB microSD card. Running it with 256GB just fine.\n\n- Made with environmentally conscious materials.\n\n- Voice control is as good as with any other Amazon device.\n\n- Still works great for reading your E-books and browsing the web. This review was written in it, btw.\n\nNegatives:\n\n- A lot of the same negatives of the previous Gen. Screen Resolution? Still 1024X600. Memory? Still 16GB, maybe 32GB if you cough up another 20$, which I did.\n\n- No fast charge means that given that the battery is larger than the previous model, the charge time is also longer.\n\nOther thoughts:\n\nI intend to use this tablet as my portable hub for my amazon devices; so far it works great for that. I did a bit of streaming and internet browsing and it works great for that too, albeit the resolution could definitely better, which I knew coming in. It is significantly faster than its predecessor.\nGiven that I like the previous one, I am pleased. Don’t get me wrong, I would prefer to have a better resolution or more memory on the starting model or maybe even better speakers (plural), but Amazon improved the model significantly in another area (performance) without significantly affecting the price. Thus, while it is not perfect, I give it five stars.\n\nTLDR; The new fire 7 is FIRE. Worth every penny.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "For years, I was using my 2017 iPad for reading eBooks.\n\nAs a self-proclaimed bookworm, there were days I'd spend 5+ hours reading - and needless to say - holding up a clunky iPad for extended periods was less-than-ideal. I began browsing the market a few months ago for a smaller, lighter device that I could dedicate to reading eBooks and watching the occasional Netflix show or Hulu rom-com.\n\nMy folks both have the 2019 Fire 7, and although the size is perfect, I was never particularly impressed with the overall package (read: slow performance and poor battery life).\n\nEnter: The 2022 Fire 7 Tablet\n\nFinally! An updated version of Amazon's smallest and most portable Fire tablet. I pre-ordered one and eagerly awaited its arrival on the release date.\n\nIt's now been 3 days and I can confidently say that this new Fire 7 is exactly what I was looking for.\n\nFirst, size and weight:\nThis Fire 7 is way smaller and lighter than my old, tired iPad. I can hold it for hours with no strain. I fly almost weekly for work and it's a noticeable weight off my shoulders compared to the iPad (literally, I travel with a backpack).\n\nSecond, battery life:\nIt's excellent. This puppy goes on and on. Yesterday, I read 245 pages of an adorable YA M/M romance novel then watched several episodes of Selling Sunset (don't judge) and there's still 66% battery remaining. My iPad would've surely passed away by now.\n\nThird, performance:\nWell-suited for flipping through eBooks, browsing the Kindle store, perusing Goodreads, or watching low-end reality shows about real estate on Netflix. I'm certainly not a gamer so I can't speak to that, but for a basic user like myself, it's more than sufficient.\n\nI'd also like to mention the phenomenon of expandable storage (gasp!). If you're like me and have used Apple products since the advent of technology, you're probably used to being trapped into purchasing set-in-stone device storage capacities. For 15 bucks, you can pop a 128GB MicroSD card into your Fire Tablet and download all five seasons of Selling Sunset. What a time to be alive.\n\nConclusion:\nI'm glad I waited for this new Fire 7. It's small, portable, lightweight, and has great battery life. As someone who doesn't need anything crazy powerful, this device checks all my boxes. It's also nice to be able to expand the storage as-needed.\n\ntl;dr: it's great. Buy it."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "I got this because the fire 7 has been upgraded from 1gb ram and a 1.3ghz quad core to 2 gb ram and the same 2.0ghz quad core the base model fire 8 hd has. It performs exactly the same except it has a 600p screen instead of the 720p screen.\n\nI used it for Netflix and Hulu and it uses less data since it's streaming in standard definition but it doesn't look worse than 720p does on my 8 inch tablet. Since it's smaller it's also more pocketable.\n\nI've been a big fan of gamepass and I launched it here from the website since the app itself is not supported and it was running smoothly and I didn't notice lag which I'm assuming the 600p stream helps vs the 1080p I use on my phone or larger tablets. I paired this with a controller and I had a blast. I also tried using my phone as a hotspot for when I'm outside and want to game stream and it was also using less data than normal since it's 600p.\n\nIf you already have used a 2020 fire 8 then you know what to expect in terms of performance. For the size it's pretty decent."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Reason I purchased the 7-inch Fire Tablet: I wanted to carry my molecular biology textbook (Kindle edition, enabled with Text-to-Speech TTS) in my pocket (or belt holster). Then I could listen to it and/or read it (offline) anytime, anywhere by using the Amazon Kindle app. Is this really possible? Yes, and FANTASTIC. Molecular biology is very complex, so I must listen at reduced narration speed (0.7x), which is available on the Kindle app. Steps are these: (1) While reading in the Kindle app, tap the center of the screen, and then tap the menu icon Aa in the upper right corner. (2) Tap More, and then tap the switch next to Text-to-Speech to turn it on. (3) In the Kindle book, tap the screen to show the progress bar, and then tap the Play ► button next to the progress bar to hear the text read out loud. To increase or decrease the reading speed of the Text-to-Speech voice, tap the Narration Speed icon. I use a cheap headset with 3.5mm mp3 plug to listen to the audio output.

Just over all a great fire tablet."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "This new Fire 7 (2022) has a few nice hardware upgrades over the previous Fire 7 (2019). Here are the key changes:\n\nGood Changes:\n-2.0 GHz CPU; ..2019 version was 1.3 GHz CPU\n-2 GB RAM; ….2019 version was 1GB RAM\n-10 hours battery; 2019 version was 7 hours\n-USB-C charging; 2019 version was micro-USB\n-Up to 1 TB MicroSD card; 2019 version was up to 512 GB MicroSD card support\n-Smaller bezel, lighter, shorter in length\n\nBad Changes:\n-$59 Price; 2019 version is $49\n-Three colors: Black, Denim, Rose; 2019 version had four colors: Black, Twilight Blue, Plum, Sage\n\n==\n\nOverall these are nice little upgrades to the least expensive Fire tablet line. The CPU and RAM upgrades bring this new Fire 7 up to par with the Fire HD 8 tablets, and the ability to add up to 1TB of storage is nice since these have so little onboard storage space. This 2022 version has the same cameras and display as the previous 2019 version, but the smaller bezel around the screen results in the tablet being smaller overall. I haven't tested out the battery life much yet, but an extra 3 hours of battery is also a big improvement if that holds up. These upgrades, combined with the USB-C charging, probably make the $10 extra price tag worth it; even more so if you can get this on a discount on Prime Day.\n\nI feel like this Fire 7 is a good option as a starter tablet. The high durability and low price make it ideal for kids that are old enough to use a real tablet; but young enough that you'd worry about them damaging a more expensive option like an iPad. The resolution on this Fire 7 isn't amazing, but you can't really beat the price.

Apparently after a year you have to pay for this which already just feels like an annoying corporate scam.\n-You can choose your age range to filter “age appropriate” content only. It gives literally tens of thousands of choices. We are very particular about the 5 or so shows that my daughter is allowed to watch and have actually taken time to pre-screen these 5 choices. Call me crazy, but I don’t feel a 2.5 year old needs full reign of 10,000 options of crap.\n-There is a way you can search for specific to titles and block chunks of content. (Ex: If we don’t want her watching Barbie or Spongebob), but there are still thousands upon thousands of pieces of content that that we haven’t pre-screened nor would be able to or frankly want to. You can manually delete these but let’s be honest, as full time working parents while taking care of a toddler at home during a pandemic, this is the last thing we want to do with our 30 mins of our own “free time” before bed before we have to clean, prep, and pass out on the couch of exhaustion.\n- There seemingly is no way to turn off aspects of Freetime like books (call us crazy, but we just read them the old fashioned way with our daughter still instead of on a screen) or games (she barely understands the plot of Sesame Street and why some parts have cartoons and some have real people- she’s not ready for games yet).\n-You can’t pin your favorite content to the top so she at very least could just see that.\n- The user interface was (obviously this is a personal opinion) terrible. Maybe I sound like a snob because for being an Apple person, but it took me ages and several blog posts just to figure out how to get to the manage permissions section.\n\nOverall, I get why this is appealing for some people- turn on the thing and let your kids go. There are time limits and goals you can set up which are perhaps good for older kids who aren’t being monitored in their use as much, but for a young child you’d be there anyways monitoring and saying “5 more minutes before we go out and play!” (So that you can get the fun times of them audibly groaning at you, while also knowing that you- a real human parent- sets limits, not just a machine).\n\nFor us, it was just WAY too much content for little eyes to have access too and frankly that makes it not “age appropriate” (again one woman’s opinion). It’s nice to have this as a tool to help in those situations where you just need to get one flippin’ thing done without 300 “Mama!!!”s in a 60 second span, but also not have a tool that gives your toddler more content that they could possibly even comprehend. Why not give them a few more years before that??\n\nIn the end, I figured out how to add a guided control on my iPad so it locks the app she’s in.

[{'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "The keyboard case is pretty nice. It basically turns into a nice little laptop. Easy to use and responds quickly without lag. The memory expansion option is nice. I’m happy with it. The split screen feature is great if you want to have music or tv on the side while you read news or surf the web.\n\nUpdate: I’ve had it for around 3 weeks now. I still really like it. It works well as my entertainment laptop. It handles email, streaming services, Kindle and Audible books, Amazon photos, etc. really well. I added the 256GB memory chip. It isn’t a work laptop replacement but is great for entertainment/home use where you’re tired of using your smartphone and want a bigger screen but not a full blown laptop. That’s what this is perfect for in my opinion. I really like the keyboard and find it handy as a good quality storage case in addition to being a keyboard. Very happy with it and would buy again.\n\nUpdate August 12, 2021: I've had this for 2.5 months now and still really enjoy it. I think it is perfect for what I wanted - an entertainment machine. I still wouldn't recommend it as a work laptop replacement, but if you're looking for something to read news, watch TV in a portable way with hot spot on your phone, review email, surf the web, and do your internet shopping - I'd say get this with the keyboard case. For the money, this is as good as you'll get on the market today.\n\nUpdate April 11, 2022: The tablet is still great for my purposes. The add-on keyboard for it had keys that stopped working, so I wouldn't recommend that any longer. I'd buy the tablet itself again for sure though. Haven't had any problems after almost a year and it is still zippy. Still love the HD screen, too."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'None of the reviews here at the time are showing \'Verified Purchase" because the pre-order was split into three parts: 1) The new fire you chose 2) The "All New, Made for Amazon Bluetooth Keyboard with detachable case in Black, for Fire HD 10 (11th Generation) 2021 release" 3) Microsoft 365 Personal | 12-Month Subscription, 1 person. So, do go look at those pages if you want to see more reviews.\n\n1) The Fire I got was the "All-new Fire HD 10 tablet, 10.1", 1080p Full HD, 32 GB, latest model (2021 release), Denim". It\'s very similar to the last two HD 10 releases, except it\'s faster. It shuts down faster, too, but I have to hold down the start button longer to get it to start up. The port locations aren\'t exactly the same as the 2017 and 2019 models, so my MoKo cases for them don\'t have the cut-outs right for the 2021 model. The on button and the charge port are partially covered. The 2021 model uses the same charging cord as the 2019 model, not the 2017 model, and a charging cord and 9 watt charger are of course included.\n\nThe speakers of the 2021 model don\'t sound any different to me, and it\'s best to play music from Fires on external speakers anyway. I never use the cameras, so can\'t comment on those on any models. I bought a Fire with ads, but they are only on the lock screen, not pop-up types. For me, the 32 GB was fine, too, because I never need extra space, and, if I did, would just insert a memory card.\n\nOne difference I truly appreciate about the 2021 model, though, is there are none of my Kindle books showing on my home page, which makes me so glad. The last software update for the 2017 and 2019 models put books from my library on the page, and you can either hide them or remove the download. Other books will replace them, though, if you hide them. If I wanted to see my Kindle books I would just tap the Kindle app. I don\'t need to see them on my home page.\n\n2) The keyboard and keyboard case I really like! With the Fire attached, it weighs 2 pounds, 6.4 ounces, so it does add quite a bit of weight to the Fire HD 10, but it turns it into a little Chromebook. In my opinion, it types and feels just like a laptop keyboard except it has no touch pad. (I\'m going to investigate Bluetooth mice, but now just use my stylus and the touch screen to do mouse tasks.) It makes a nice light clicking sound when you type and doesn\'t skip any letters or numbers; although sometimes when typing a sentence starting with the letter "I", it will make a small "i" instead of a capital one.\n\nThe Fire is held in a frame that attaches magnetically to the keyboard. It quickly attaches and detaches. I\'ve held it over cushioning and tried to see if I could shake the Fire off the keyboard, but it did not fall off. The Fire has a good tilt on the table, but not on the laptop stand I tried. Also, it can\'t be flipped to make a 2-in-1 type of laptop. The keyboard connected easily to my Fire by Bluetooth, comes with a charging cord, but not a charger. I\'m using a 9 watt Fire charger. If you want to see more reviews on the keyboard, do go to the keyboard page listed in the first paragraph of this review.\n\n3) The 1-year Microsoft 365 Personal subscription is one of the reasons I got the bundle deal. I\'ve been subscribing to it monthly, and it will cost a lot less with this subscription. My monthly subscription was up for renewal last week, so I cancelled it and waited until I got a letter from Microsoft saying it had expired. I then went to my "Memberships & Subscriptions" page here at Amazon and downloaded it on my desktop. Well, it was already downloaded, but doing so activated it again. I had no problems whatsoever with activation.\n\nTo get Office on my Fire, I just had to sign in at Microsoft using my Microsoft e-mail and password, not my Amazon e-mail and password. Everything is there on the Fire, but I don\'t know if everything will work on the Fire as it does on a desktop or laptop. I only use Word to create documents, and that works fine on the Fire. I like having the subscription through Amazon, too, because you can go to your Memberships & Subscriptions page and turn on or off auto-renew or cancel next year. You don\'t have to go to Microsoft to do so.\n\nWell, that\'s a brief summary of everything. I\'m happy with the bundle deal, especially since I also got a $30 gift card for a trade-in of my 2019 Fire HD 10 and applied it to the deal, making what I paid even less.\n\nP.S. Seeing all the questions about printing capabilities, I decided to print a document from Office using the HD 10, something I\'ve never done before. First, I turned on my TS8320 Canon printer, than I turned on my new HD 10 and the keyboard, chose a document in Office and chose print. It asked if I wanted to save it as a PDF or print. I chose print and chose "all printers". Up came my TS8320 instantly as a choice, I pressed the print symbol, and it printed faster than it does from my desktop! I guess the printer was instantly there as a choice since it is part of my wireless network. I definitely didn\'t do any Bluetooth stuff to connect the HD 10 to the printer. This is the first time I have ever tried to print anything with a Fire.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'My older Fire tablet came up missing while having repairs done, which was really upsetting.

I also love being able to taking notes on my kindle books as I do research and now I can easily put them in OneNote.\n\nI have an iPad with a keyboard case as well, but this is just a little easier to use for things like watching a TV show while I work on something. Plus it is lighter weight. The keyboard weighs a lot more than I thought it would, but the fire is lighter.\n\nI would 10/10 recommend this for anyone who just wants to curl up in a cozy spot and get a bit of work done.\n\nI also relealize that it is excessive to have an iPad Pro, Mircosoft Surface Pro and a Fire, but the Fire was well worth the money. Its as if my iPad and Surface had a baby. I would suggest the fire as a great alternative to the ipad if you are not doing anything that reqires a lot of processing power. I would also recomend it as a way less expensive option to the Surface if you aren't going to game and do a bunch of annotations.\n\nI do wish it had a smart pen and a way to house it with case."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Faster & Better...

Used the older to watch movies I had on SD\'s. When I got the new tablet it would not recognize my movies SD. They were in MP4 format. So I called customer and got a whirlwind of agents that border on incompetent claiming they "knew" but did not. They had me do a reset wiping out all I already had downloaded from previous tablet. That did NOTHING, same issue. Next agent told me that I could ONLY use one of two "approved" SD\'s,which I knew was untrue from a latter agent. Then I get an email from unknown customer agent that the SD\'s had to be formatted only FAT32 not exFat32 which is in direct contradiction to the tablet help files. So on and on with numerous calls with some "pretending" to be advanced Tech support but did not know about formatting in FAT32 or other from9 am until late at night. One was supposed to call back in 20 minutes did not. Another when I asked what country they were calling from ( asked because of the time zone difference) said that was rude and just hung up the phone.\n\nNow I find out it is supposed to be a Generation 11 2021 table but when you look in the "about Tablet" in the Setting it states Gen 10. You also cannot use the "Play Store" but only their App Store keeping it Proprietary like computers did 40 years ago. And it is not really a true Android.\n\nAll in all this tablet is not worth the trouble unless you just content with Amazon shopping and Prime watching. After a supervisor is "supposed"to call me back June 2 ( three days) and see if they resolved the MP4 SD issue I will return it unless resolved. I have 17 - 32 gb SD\'s each with 30+ movies on each (510) I have been watching on my previous Fire Tablet. I will be darned if I am going to save all those, reformat the disk, and reinstall them on the disk for a crappy new Fire tablet and worse customer Service for it.\n\nUPDATE:!!! Well the supervisor that was supposed to call me never has. So I called and got another"Expert" that has done exactly the same thing all the rest did and was going to send me another tablet until I seen in the reviews that others have had the same issues. You cannot use this tablet unless you format the SD in their machine and then transfer whatever you want to put on it.\n\nNow do want to even return my "Gift Card" I applied to this order. So they want to keep my old table, keep my gift card. And I have to drive 35 miles to return this shitty table.\n\nHERE IS THE AMAZON CON.

I guess this is to match the black keyboard if you get the productivity bundle?\n-The productivity bundle is $40 more than the Plus version, and comes with 1 year of Microsoft 365 Personal, which currently costs $70/ year. So if you need Microsoft 365 Personal, it could be worth it for you to upgrade to that version just to save on the year of service.\n-The upgrade to max 1TB expandable storage isn't currently that big of a deal for me, since 1TB microSD cards are currently super expensive at around $160\n\nI was a little disappointed that after 2 years, the new Fire HD 10 still has the exact same processor and resolution as the 2019 version, and honestly the only thing I really love about the new version is the wireless charging option.

My previous fire (HD 8") does not have this problem with the hidden network. The 8 is connected and runs without issue (even during troubleshooting). The 10 being unable to connect to my Wifi network like ALL of my other devices is a surprising problem to immediately run into. It\'s 2021 and the device I purchased is supposed to be an upgrade.\n\nThe worst part is that I am able to manually add a network. That means that this device is programmed to handle cloaked networks. You know, that normal thing that wireless devices can always do. But as soon as I hide the SSID (after successfully connecting the 10 to the Wifi) the Fire disconnects itself and says Out of Range. Oops. forgot to try reseting the router. Ha! That was a lie.

Ran speed tests. Same speeds. Seems to be same signal strength.\n\nUpdate: Well...I've set it to reboot every day now. And oddly some mornings there's just no wifi signal. So I have to go over and reboot it. I'm thinking of updating the firmware package to see if this resolves that issue. I'll post once i have this issue fixed.\n\nI bought a Nighthawk prior to this. But the nighthawk was a pain setting up as you had to get an app, create an account, and then I still never saw great speeds even on 5ghz.

Good 2.4 and 5.0 speed\n2. Good ethernet speed (1000mbps)\n3. Good software features\n\nCons:\n1. The huge * itself, which is POOR RANGE. Now allow me to elaborate. I was trying to setup an extender which is about 15 meters away, with only a glass door in between and clear line of sight. I go to the extender position and look at the signal strength and WOW 5 bars, almost no signal lost (at least i believed) even in my garage where wifi has never reached i got 1 bar. So theoretically this had GREAT range. But no. As soon as my extender connected, the connection dropped and SSID even dissapeared. That was weird, so i pulled out my cellphone thinking the extender was bad. Same result, got 5 bars signal but as soon as i connected, connection dropped and SSID disappeared. Tested 2 more cellphones, 2 laptops, a Nintendo Switch, all to which gave me the exact same result. I closed in to the router with all devices and with a whole day of testing concluded that the signal could be reliably held with ANY device being 5 meters or closer. Thats right, 5 meters. Then i thought, maybe my house is over a iron ore or something. No, i bout a $20 linksys ac1200 and could easily reach the extender 15m away and even more with a stable and reliable signal. Curious is that at about 20m, this router does "appear" to have more signal strength than the ac1200, but as soon as connection is attempted, connection drops and SSID dissapears.\n\nI would have given it 0 stars, but i guess anything in a 5m radius works well. but totally a BAD ROUTER if what you are looking for is range. If all your devices are 5m o nearer then i guess this is good for that.\n\nTried all firmwares on the support page and nothing fixed this issue.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Long review but hopefully helpful:\n\nBought this to replace an aged Airport Extreme and give my Oculus Quest 2 a better WiFi connection.

If you reboot your modem and this device, go make coffee or something when it is starting back up because the router takes a while to restart. The light finally went green but it did feel like it took an inordinate amount of time.\n\nI understand the frustration that comes with setting up these new things and the rage factor sometimes enters the picture. If it does: unplug the cable modem and the router, leave everything unplugged for 5 minutes, plug in the cable modem and wait until it is fully booted up, plug in this router and walk away for a bit. Give it 5-10 minutes and hopefully you'll be good to go.\n\nThe interface looks a bit dated and clonky but most do.

The ability to edit the names of the clients is something I was never able to do before and it really makes a difference.\n\nI wanted something with the ability to kick clients off the network while I am using the Quest to ensure it has no bandwidth competition with devices that are not in use at the time the Quest is being used, but then put them back on without having to jump through hoops, re-entering passwords and such. I have a lot of devices on my network and while they may not be in use, they are still hovering around and eating up some bandwidth even while idling.\n\nThis router allows that in an easy peasy way but the icons used are confusing. First, if you go to the Network map, clients section, you will see a list of all the clients on your network. You can click the pencil next to the name of the device and change it to make life easier. On the right side, if you click Block, that client gets blacklisted and cannot connect to the network. If you click View Blacklist, you will see all of the blocked clients and there is a garbage can icon on the right. This is a confusing and poor icon choice because most people would think that this will remove the client entirely. It doesn't. It simply puts the client back on the whitelist. It's a great thing to have, for example:\n\nLet's say you have a Zoom meeting and want to ensure that there's as little connection issues as possible. You can block all other clients on the network that are not needed and have all the bandwidth to yourself for your meeting and when it's over, just click the garbage can on each device in the blacklist and poof! they are all able to connect again.\n\nI am not really understanding the point of the QoS feature on this device because in the past when I've set up QoS in a work environment, you are able to directly allocate bandwidth to devices. Ideally, this would be what you would use if you had a Zoom call rather than kicking clients off for a time. With this router's QoS, you have two choices: On or Off. Each device listed has a Priority switch that is turned on or off. You can turn on the Priority switch for one, some or all devices, but there's nothing else, so you have no idea how bandwidth allocation is implemented here.\n\nUnder the On/Off switch for QoS, there is a bandwidth allocation box for both upload and download with each set at 1000. You can change this number, but again, it doesn't tell you how it will divvy out that bandwidth to the clients. If you only have one device with the Priority turned on, you are left to wonder what that client is getting as opposed to other devices on the network. That's kind of a shame because you can prioritize a device for Always or for a couple of hours. Would seem the perfect set up for a Zoom meeting as you can give Priority to your device for a set amount of time and the router will release that restriction at the end of the hour or two or whatever you chose without you having to interact with the admin page at all. Unfortunately, you cannot enter times: i.e,. Priority from 10 a.m. to noon. You can choose Always, 1 hour, 2 hours, or 4 hours.\n\nI'm not sure what people are talking about regarding monthly fees for Parent Controls. I don't have kids, but opened it up and you can add a child's computer as a device, block certain keywords from being searched online and limit the days/times that your child can get online. I didn't see anything about fees or payment for those features.\n\nI have noticed more zip in my Quest 2 since setting up this router and am quite pleased with it so far. I set up a 5ghz network set to AX only for the Quest's exclusive use, a 2.4ghz Guest Network for all the Echos, Kindles, switches for lights, etc., and a 2.4ghz network for laptops, iPads, etc."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Wish it was a stand up for the area that I have it.

Setup is made unnecessarily difficult in that requires the user to type in the default password or scan a QR code. However, the font for the default password on the bottom of the router is so small it is almost impossible to read. The quick-start instructions say you can scan a QR code, but fail to note that the QR code is not on the box or on the router, but instead on a little separate slip of paper in the bottom of the box.\nReview update: after a few days wifi seemed very slow. Testing revealed that the problem was TP-Link\'s "smart connect" feature. As with any dual-band router, you can set the slow 2.4GHz band and the fast 5GHz band to the same SSID. Normally this would allow your device - laptop, phone, etc - to choose which band to use. Smart Connect is supposed to optimize network performance by allowing the router itself to decide which band each device should use. But what Smart Connect actually does is the reverse of optimal: it only allows one device to connect to 5GHz, and kicks everything else to 2.4GHz! Even if that one 5GHz connected device is idle, every other device is locked out.\n\nThere is a long thread on the TP-Link user forum about this bug in several TP-Link routers, with users complaining and TP-Link tech support people just saying "that shouldn\'t happen"! In any case, to fix it problem go into the web-based network settings page and turn off smart connect. You can then manually give the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands the same SSID, but keep the check box for Smart Connect in the off setting. After this little adjustment, everything worked great again.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "This is my second TP-Link router, the first being an Archer A7. My wife teaches from home and my 4th grade daughter is remote learning. Before the winter break we had a unexplained internet slowdown and high lag one morning (which magically disappeared). My wife was concerned enough, she gave me the go ahead, or excuse, to replace our current wifi setup.\n\nOur old Surfboard modem was going on 8 years old, and we had the A7 router. These ran using a 100 Mbps Comcast account. The A7 by itself covered most of our house, but would really slow down, sometimes drop out, in the opposite corner of the house in one bedroom and a bathroom. This was on 2.4ghz. A OneMesh extender took care of that issue.\n\nThe AX21 does not need an extender. I get 80-85%, maybe a little better, of full speed in two rooms the A7 had issues with. Oh, did I mention that was on 5ghz? The router, by itself, for sure has really good coverage. No need for my OneMesh extender anymore.\n\nSince I was already familiar with the Tether app setup wasn't an issue. The only problem I ran into was an old laptop couldn't see my SSIDs anymore. Updating the wireless drivers fixed that. Maybe something to do with the AX protocol?\n\nSo, the Archer AX21 fills our needs. It covers the entire house well. With only 100 Mbps internet it's speed is about the same as the A7, but with better coverage and much higher speeds at distance.

This is specifically for the AX21 model (lowest price). Although there are actually 3 versions of this router as well with the AX21 being the newest. What differentiates it from the AX20? More ventilation. Apparently TP-Link has a heat issue as many reviewers have mentioned (but not about the AX21.) This is the best budget WiFi 6 router you can get for that money. But beware it has budget features!\nThe user management interface is super basic and the Tether app is even more basic. Especially if you want to control DHCP Clients. If you want to rename clients you can only do it with the Tether app. If you want to manage clients you have to use the web based interface. This can be problematic for such a simple management function. I certainly hope they step up this utility because it is almost a con for purchasing TP-Link for anyone who wants to tweak or control their router. But if you have no interest in those controls then this router will perform well. I replaced a Netgear 6700v3 because it was having issues with download speeds. It was super inconsistent and their updates seemed to make it worse. Read the forums if you doubt me. But Netgear is far advanced with their user interface compared with TP-Link. But performance is more important overall. I pay for 100 Mb download and Netgear varied between 40-60 with 90 on a blue moon. This AX21 is consistently 100+ on 5ghz band. Truthfully that is the only reason I am keeping it.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-4 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Summary: Particularly if you want to run what I call a "cheap mesh on the fly" system, mating this Archer AX21 router to TP-Link\'s RE-series Wi-Fi extenders that can support OneMesh+SmartConnect is a great way to go...just turn of QoS in the meantime (easily done with their robust Tether interface). Comments: Whenever a company puts out a lot of hardware variations along with a lot of software options, you have a testing permutation nightmare, having to test a large host of hardware with a huge number of variable implementation options. In my case, I tried to run the AX21 with the full suite of options: SmartConnect (single Wi-Fi name for both bands), OneMesh + WiFi Extenders (RE200+RE220), and QoS. Well, with QoS turned on, the router cut my download speeds in half and then hard crashed one evening (I\'ve only had the router for a bit over a week). Frankly, it bothers me that end users become a company\'s testbed....but it\'s more important that the product works...and in that regard, the AX21 is superior to my prior Archer A6 in terms of speed and WiFi coverage. I reported the QoS issue so I hope TP-Link will investigate and correct the system instability in a future firmware update.'}]

It is NOT an iPad or Samsung, it is an Amazon content delivery device. It is inexpensive because Amazon provides the content and they want you to have a cheap way to enjoy it. It is an E Reader, Music Player, Video Player not a full fledged Android Tablet. Like most Amazon devices it has ads on the lock screen. Any other ads are the fault of the apps. It can be massaged to load apps from Google Play but it wasn't designed for that and results will vary. Expecting this to perform like an iPad or Samsung is wishful thinking of the highest degree. If you can't afford an iPad, don't blame this unit. Don't buy it to do anything but read, listen and watch. I've worn out several of the Fire units over the years and I loved them. They are electronic devices and as such are likely to fail at some point. It's reality. I own 2 iPads as well as This Kindle, an old fire (USB port finally died) and a Kindle Paperwhite. They all serve a purpose. I read constantly and sometimes the Paperwhite is right, Sometimes the Fire is right. The iPads are PC replacements for me and do everything I need to run a small business and record music. I don't expect any of the Kindles to be iPads. Warranty is commensurate with value. 90 days is enough to verify operation. After 90 days you're just unlucky or you dropped the unit so many times it gave up. iPads have a 1 year warranty and you pay for it. My last iPad cost me over $500. I expect a lot more from it than I do a Kindle. I apologize for ranting but it sucks that good products suffer because of bad expectations. A Kindle Fire is a great device for what it was intended to do. I don't really like backlit screens for reading, but sometimes they're desirable. I can watch Movies, Listen to Audiobooks, Listen to music, Stream content and read books and magazines. All on one device that has a screen I don't have to squint at to enjoy. All for a very reasonable price. I had some A-hole grab my fire and run while I was getting a drink refill and it wasn't a nightmare... like if he had run off with my iPad.

The camera on this tablet is mediocre but gets the job done and your expectations for it shouldn’t be that high to begin with in all honesty.

We had around 30 connected devices. We replaced our combined router/cable modem/wifi with a separate Arris Surfboard dedicated cable modem and used this product to do meshed wifi throughout our house.\n\nBefore setup we were getting continued wifi drops which often interuppted video calls even when we were in the basement with the wifi. After setup it now works seamlessly across our 3 floors and loft in our nearly 8000 square feet house... even extending into the yard. was expecting to need more than 3 but it did the job.\n\nI think our prior issue was a combo of mixing the wifi with the router/modem and having two many devices connected at once (I was able to connect directly via an ethernet cable and work fine before so it wasn't our Internet connection).\n\nthe app is easy to use and provides good info. I haven't toyed around with the QOS aspects or parental controls yet but was surprised it had the options. look easy to just turn a device on or off.\n\nInstall was super easy (most smart products are now though)\n\nHighly recommend this... no need to go pricier."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I have Verizon FIOS bundled service, so I have my TV, phone and internet all-in-one. While I do love FIOS, one of the negatives is that I had to use their bundled Gateway modem/router because of my TV and phone services. My house does have a wired ethernet network running thru it, which is great for all my desktop PC\'s and Home Theater setup, but the FIOS Gateway router\'s WiFi performance didn\'t adequately cover my three floor house (the FIOS modem is in my garage, next to my home wired-network box). To help solve this issue, I tried using the very well reviewed Netgear EX6200 range extender, but I could never get reliable performance out of it...random drops, slow speeds...it just didn\'t seem to like working with my FIOS router.\n\nIn looking for a better solution, my research led me to looking into Mesh networking, especially as these systems (supposedly) would not need to bypass my FIOS modem...it would work with it, just taking over the WiFi functions. I was apprehensive, so I wanted a cost effective product. Tp-Link\'s Deco series have gotten rave reviews and their latest S4-series was actually cheaper than the previous M4-series, so I took the plunge.\n\nGetting the Deco S4 up and running is so much simpler than traditional WiFi extenders and boosters...download the TP-Link mobile app, launch it, pick your TP-Link product and it guides you through the whole process. There were some hiccups during installation, mainly where the app failed in finding the S4 devices on the first pass, but hitting the Try Again button solved the issue. The S4 router unit (all three are identical) simply plugs into any open port on the back of the FIOS modem. Once the Mesh network is setup on this S4 router, you can now easily add the other units throughout your home using the app. The app has a lot of functionality...you can set-up usage profiles, "Blacklist" devices from using your network, monitor network health and utilization, etc. Two other benefits with the S4 Deco units are that each includes two auto-sensing Gigabit ethernet ports (useful for network switches/hubs or plugging in non-WiFi devices, etc.) and that they are compatible with all TP-Link WiFi devices, so expansion and upgrades are easy.\n\nCoverage is excellent. The big benefit to a Mesh network is that all the S4 units are essentially operating as one...so, as you move throughout your house (or even outside!), your devices simply pick-up the strongest signal from the best available S4 router. You don\'t need to manually switch from network to network like you would with a traditional WiFi extender. Speeds are surprisingly fast. I only have FIOS 100/100 service, but I am getting WiFi speeds of 100+ Mbps on my ground and third floors (both S4 units are wired) and almost a full 80 Mbps on my second floor with a non-wired S4 unit. Outside on my back deck, speed drops to "only" 60 Mbps...incredible! I spent about 4 hours stress testing the network and found it to be rock solid...very consistent and dependable WiFi performance.\n\nIf there were two things I\'d list as negatives, they would be the lack of a web-based network tool/programmer (everything has to be done on the mobile app) and that there was a way to identify/isolate usage between the 2.4 and 5.0 bands.\n\nThis is a long review, but to sum it up, the Deco S4 is a great product. It\'s simple to set-up, works with your existing modem (a HUGE plus for Verizon FIOS users), doesn\'t act like a bottleneck and offers a huge area of coverage. And there\'s the very nice price. I finally feel like I\'m getting all the WiFi I\'m supposed to be getting!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I had an Amazon eero three point mesh router that constantly gave me "connected, no internet" problems--because I believe the router often would not assign an IP address to a connected device.

Coverage and speed are fantastic. Setup very similar to the eero. eero\'s form factor and app may be slightly more polished, but that is not a substitute for the fantastic functionality and instant connectivity of this tp-link router.\n\nWhen you are looking at mesh routers, you might want to give extra point to the ones made by long-time networking companies, like netgear (orbi) and tp-link, as opposed to the ones from amazon (eero) and google (nest).

I have WIFI in the front yard, in the back yard and back in the parking area. That was all I needed. I am a little surprised that a cheaper solution replaced a garbage, expensive, non-solution from one of the largest companies in the world.\n\nI was concerned after watching all of the videos and discovering that there was a configuration issue that would make it problematic for older devices to connect to the mesh network. However, when I installed everything, there was a firmware update that resolved the issue of not having separate 2.4Ghz/5Ghz bands. My Ring doorbell, thermostat and old firestick work just fine. I believe it had to do with that update.\n\nIf you have dead spots in your house. If you purchased Google WIFI, but the pucks don't communicate with one another, even if in the same room. If you have thick walls. If you have multiple floors and limited places to situate network hardware. This is the most perfect solution. I would know.

But most of the time it\'s not decent. I bought this with the intent that this might be overkill for my small-ish house (~1600 sq ft). The app is fine, pretty dumbed down, but fine. Having deployed dozens of firetide mesh networks, I like a bit more IT focused control (seeing signal strength and QOS across bands and seeing how the power line back line haul is working), but for the average consumer it is fine. But I don\'t like being IT support when I am at home. I just want stuff that works so I don\'t have to hear "the internet is not working", and I heard that the internet was not working plenty. I had one mesh node consistently loose signal (<30ft from the base and tertiary unit) and I constantly had chromecast devices drop off as well as laptops and other devices. I have one Android TV unit 3\' from the base unit that routinely (every 30 minutes or so) had to have the wifi cycled on/off to maintain service. It\'s a headache. Just don\'t buy it.\n\nUPDATE: So I went with another home mesh system and after having installed that new system with a node in the same location as the one that kept dropping off with the TP-Link, I notice even more how bad the TP-Link and software really are. The new system has a similarly simplified interface, but does tell me how the signal strength is doing and its 2-node system has excellent signal strength even in the position with the node that kept dropping off with the TP_link. The one device that I kept having to restart the wifi on (and that I thought might be the device malfunctioning), no longer has any issues. And I now get the full speed 400Mbs symmetrical over wifi throughout the house with the new system too, where the TP_link topped out at 100Mbs (actually closer to 90-ish download only....). And the new system took me about 15 minutes to set up and forget about, because it just works.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'The main thing I don\'t like about it is you can\'t change the WiFi channels nor how wide they are. 2.4GHz is a 40MHz channel. This is typically a huge no-no especially in congested areas. On top of this, the center channel is 8 which I can not change! This is 110% redicuolous and shows that they didn\'t have anyone who knows networking create the UI! I am contending for unused capacity across the ENTIRE 2.4GHz range!!!\n\nIt\'s\' counter intuitive but because of WiFi congestion a 20MHz channel centered on 1, 6, or 11 is going to be significantly faster for me. Best I can get because of congestion is 30~45Mbps on a 20MHz channel. Because this Deco S4 is 40MHz on Channel 8 it has a hard time breaking 10Mbps. Shoot, even a 40MHz channel on 1, 6, or 11 would be faster.\n\nIm giving it one star because of this. Once an update gives us an "advance wifi settings" page that lets us tweak these settings I\'d give it a solid 4 stars.\n\nAlso, if you use it in router mode, Im still not sure what CPU is in the thing, but it seems pretty weak. I\'d be concerned with it bogging down if you have too many sessions going on.\n\nLuckily my client doesn\'t have neighboring wifi so 40MHz on whatever channel doesn\'t matter.

Then I spotted this PowerLine version for a bit more than the 2 channel system that specifically mentioned that it worked with thick walls. We have brick, adobe and plaster walls between the cable and my computer. Installed the new network and I'm getting 70-90 mbps in the office now.

It's still quiet and going strong!\n\nMy old Targus mat which has served me well has over time become extremely noisy. In researching pads as a replacement, I automatically discarded the higher priced ones with adjustable speeds, glowing LEDs, trendy designs, and whatnots considering my laptop would be covering all that expensive eye candy. My priorities were rather basic: (1) thin & lightweight, (2) cooling performance, and (3) quiet. The HV-F2056 fits the bill and works as advertised:\n\nThin & lightweight: The design fits 15.6” – 17” which works for me. I have a MSI GS70 2QE Stealth Pro with a screen size of 17.3” and overall length of 16” and width of 11.25”. With both units side by side (with the exception of length), the Havit is almost the same width and thickness as my laptop. The aluminum wire mesh design makes it definitely lighter and seems sturdy enough for traveling, so no problem there.\n\nCooling performance: There are 3 monster 110 mm fans spinning at 1000 RPM which is almost double my old Targus and I can definitely feel the results of the updraft as the laptop bottom and sides are cool to the touch. I ran CoreTemp and HWMonitor with the fan off/fan on to be sure and there is definitely a drop in the internal temperature. The fans are also at the perfect location for my vents. What I did not want is a pad where the housing part had a lot of plastic that would cover the vents and with this being an all mesh surface it wasn't an issue. The 3rd pic shows the glow of it running. Like I said earlier, your laptop covers most of the unit so the lights aren't obtrusive.\n\nQuiet: Unless I’ve gone noise blind, I can’t hear this pad running! I think this cooling pad strikes a good balance between the amount of airflow and noise. I've also discovered that those fancy LEDs lights are not just another pretty glow, they may actually serve a purpose like… reminding you to turn off the cooling fans when you’ve shut down everything else!\n\nPower/Charging: This is not really a gripe since I’m a chord/adapter hoarder, but (a) a 12” USB chord come with the fan which is actually a tease and way too short, and (b) it does not come with a wall power source. I hate using my laptop as a host for power when not on the road, so was surprised there was no option to run from a wall source. Let’s face it, the reason many of us buy a cooling fan is to extend our battery life. While the cooling pad has a rating of 5 volts which seems minimal, it still converts to watts which adds to more battery drain to cool. Anyway, nothing a usb male-female extension cable and adapter couldn’t fix.\n\nOverall, this is a great cooling pad that is quiet, well built, sturdy, doesn’t slide around, and cools air effectively. As for durability, it’s a little too soon to tell. As for price, it’s a great value for the quality & thinness."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Very surprised at the effectiveness of this.\n\nUsing this on a 2018 13" i7 MacBook Pro.

Video would take 31 seconds to render\nPost cooling pad: Internal fans came on after about 20 seconds and ran at about 2700 rpm. Video took 28 seconds to render\n\nTest 3: General Web Browsing:\nPre Cooling Pad: Processors sat around 55 degrees\nPost Cooling Pad: Processors sat around 45 degrees\n\nSo, there you go.

It's powered over USB and has 3 giant fans which keep the laptop as cool as possible while gaming. The blue LED lights are a nice touch that let you know that the mat is on and gives it an overall nice aesthetic.\n\nThere are 2 USB passthroughs on the back located near the power switch which is nice because it does take up one of the USBs on your laptop. (One of the USBs is used to connect the pad to the laptop, leaving 1 for an additional device.) Pretty sure the USBs are USB 2.0.\n\nThere are kickstand legs that come out to raise it at various angles depending on your working surface. They're very strong and not flimsy at all.\n\nIt doesn't have the nicest build quality in the world as it is made of plastic and is pretty lightweight. However it keeps it lightweight and since it's not metal, it won't get extremely hot either.\n\nIf I had one complaint, it'd be that if you hold the cooling pad firm enough while it is on, the fans will rub up against the chassis causing a loud grinding noise. If you're careful with how you hold it and don't clamp down on it, you won't run into this issue very often. This doesn't affect the performance of the cooling pad at all, but if it was built a little stronger, this most likely wouldn't be an issue.\n\nThe fans are decently quiet (a lot quieter than my laptop). I can hear sound coming from my computer speakers with no issue, although if you're going to game, I'd still recommend headphones anyways.\n\nOverall I'd recommend this cooling pad to anyone looking for a budget-friendly option.

Tri Band Mesh Router & ALL stand alone Tri Band routers, I can reach 700-800Mbps in the same location & devices.\n\nAnd y'all will say, those are expensives, NOT REALLY, as I've seen Deco M9 with 3 pcs. for only $230 at Costco, etc... and many others brand that can give you a much faster speed and wider coverage, between $250 - $350.\n\nAgain, DO NOT BELIEVE on the LIES of those will say, dual band MESH router is OK, bla bla bla...\n\nI personally showed to people the difference (when I uninstalled/installed the Amazon EERO vs Netgear ORBI using NOTE 10 Plus, iPad Pro 11 & Surface Book 2) of the speedtest results, for almost the same price, but the ORBI can reach 800Mbps & EERO with only 400Mbps wirelessly, so how much more when you're paying for 200Mbps or 100Mbps? Then that Amazon EERO will only give you 100Mbps or 50Mbps wirelessly, almost anywhere your place, unlike MOST Tri-Band Mesh Routers, they can still give you 200 or 100Mbps...\n\nSave your money, and just get WIFI 5 or WIFI 6, that's TRI BAND MESH ROUTER.\n\nHave a great day to ya'll..."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Did you resist getting an Alexa because you don\'t like the idea of a device listening to all your conversations, assembling profiles of you and reporting on your activities?\nI bought this because I wanted an easy system of wireless routers to cover our home, but a quick look at the privacy policy I was asked to sign by the Eero app was frightening!

[{'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "The Xfiniity compatible Modem was super easy to set-up following the Quick Start guide included in the box. Word of advice for Comcast / Xfinity subscribers -- when stepping through the set-up Wizard, selecting the option to text an activation code is a joke -- the code is only good for 15 minutes but I didn't receive the text until 30 minutes had passed; just stick with your Xfinity account name for the activation and provisioning.\n\nXfinity upgraded to DOCSIS 3.1, and, while my own 6 year old trusty Motorola Surfboard SB6580 was working fine, Xfinity found every reason to pester me about an upgrade and how much I'm missing not having a 3.1 modem lease an upgrade. I prefer to own my own modem, so, after perusing compatible modems for my region on Xfinity's approved device page, I narrowed my choices to the ARRIS Surfboard SB8200, Netgear CM1000, and, this, the Motorola MB8600. All three are comparable at 1001 Mbps, 32 down x 8 up DOCSIS channels, and DOCSIS 3.1.\n\nAll the cool kids love the Arris -- especially after they ditched the very problematic Intel PUMA chipset and went with the Broadcom's offering -- and for very good reasons, it has great hardware specs. Sporting 3GB of RAM, 128MB /16 of NAND flash memory it's a tasty treat. And, were it not a horrific white box that clashes with everything in my apartment, I'd happily have purchased it.\n\nVanity, thy name be Monkey Rat, I know.\n\nI've never had a lot of love for Netgear, and, I found its hardware lacking -- 128 MB of flash memory and 256 MB of RAM. Ultimately not a huge game changer, with current theoretical home speeds at 1Gb, but one would expect something a tad more, well, more from a name like Netgear. While its feature rich -- which, is saying something for a cable modem -- I really saw no reason to down this path.\n\nThat clashing white Arris was looking tastier at this point.\n\nThen I compared the MB8600 to both and found a happy place. 512 MB of RAM and 128 MB of NAN -- a buck cheaper than the Netgear with a doubling of the RAM, and while not as expensive -- marginally -- than the Arris, and certainly lacking a bit in the hardware department, but I paid more for future ability to bond upwards of 4 separate lines. However, the LACP technology requires a higher end router, and faster than a gig speed isn't necessarily right around the corner, but, this device positioned nicely for a future with a potential of 4Gb.\n\nWord of caution -- it's a BIG device. If you're familiar with the older Surfboards, this is easily double the size in height and does not come with any sort of mounting option. However, it has great ventilation thanks to a well aired grid pattern on the side.\n\nSo, how does it work? My internet plan is the BLAST! 150 Mbps (stop laughing) -- and i assure you, I've never seen that even in the dead of night -- wired speeds show an increase on speedtest.net but it's not really all that noticeable, whether plugged in directly to the cable modem or my ASUS RT-AC86U router, notebook and desktop performance were negligible. However, wireless performance for my nVidia SHIELD K1 tablet and Google Pixel 2 phone were significantly improved - I found this a little odd as they're still going through a router, but, I can't argue with results.\n\nI keep forgetting the MB8600 has a baked in spectrum analyzer utility I need to check out -- I'll add an update when I do.\n\nUltimately, I like it -- I play Everquest (the original) and noted better response times, but again, the MS aren't earth shaking or setting the sky afire. Stream the occasional movie, and really I don't have any complaints, and can only praise the device for its eye-popping Wi-Fi boost, for which I have no good explanation.\n\nI may change out my Cat5e for Cat6 and upgrade my router next -- hopefully wringing a couple more Mbps out. But, really, I think it's time to call xfinity and have to do some line tests. I will provide updates on that as well."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Speaking as a cable technician for one of the larger companies out there, this runs cooler (less heat produced, more efficient with electricity) and more stable (doesn\'t drop off nearly as easily due to low dBmV or low MER signal issues) than the rental Ubee, Technicolor, and Arris models my company "includes for free with your package". And yes, the AQM also works with the Cisco CMTS we use are our hubs currently, at least in my city that I work in. I bought one myself in December, it\'s been running a server without interruptions. Of course any line damage or RF leakage issues will still need repairs, but I\'ve seen it more than once with weak signal on the coax (sometimes even negative dBmV levels from the tap), but yet this modem stays locked on without issues. That\'s impressive, and only one or two rental model modems we offer (which are exclusive to business class, not residential customers) gets close to that feat. Any one-star reviews you see here are likely going to be significant leakage issues inside or outside the home, almost never the modem itself with a well-made model like this MB8600.\n\nIf the manufacturer changes who is designing & making this (i.e.: no longer Motorola engineering), I will update this review.

I've been using the Arris SB6141 modem which is 8 channel down x 4 channel up, great modem, no issues but it's speed maxed out at 120 mb/s down and 5 mb/s up. I figured what the heck might as well get the speed i'm paying for, so I purchased the Motorola SB7621 which is 24 channel down x 8 channel up. Internet speed is now 180mb/s down and 6mb/s up with a ping of 19ms. I am happy that I am now getting the speed I am paying for. Yes the upload speed didn't change much but that is because xfinity does not support 8 channel up in my area. This means even though this modem supports 8 channel up it only shows 4 active up channels when you log into it, this is not the modems fault, this is xfinity's doing. The download channels are fine, all 24 channels show up and are active. Yes, I could have purchased a 16 channel down and 4 channel up modem and received the same current speeds but at the time of purchase this modem was less than or the same amount as all the 16 x 4 modems. By buying this Motorola I can upgrade my internet speed down the road and still be covered. Another good thing is that this modem has the Broadcom chipset not the Intel puma.\n\nThe modem comes with good instructions and is well packaged. Setup was a breeze. I didn't have to call xfinity. All I did after I hooked up just the modem to my PC was navigate to motorola.com which brought up the xfinity activation page. Then just log in with your xfinity credentials and follow the prompts.

Overall I am happy with the purchase. When wired our speed is: 438/22, wireless is less impressive: 41/4, adequate. Xfinity ISP Service is suppose to be "up to 600mbps". Obviously, wireless speed is dependent upon many things not the least of which is number of other connected devices & we are up to 25.\n\nBut if you think it will be easy to activate on Comcast/Xfinity, you need to remember who your ISP is. At first I tried to activate the modem online just as the instructions recommend. That procedure requires you to download and install a new app on your phone (btw, be sure you have your cell before even beginning activation). Well, that was a waste of time. Kept receiving error messages from Xfinity. So I called Xfinity and after waiting for 15 minutes, spoke with a rep who indicated they needed to transfer me to another tech. But instead of transferring me the rep hung up on me. So, thought I\'d try Xfinity Chat. Connected in about 10 minutes. The Chat person (sorry forgot his name) required me log into several additional Comcast/Xfinity web sites on my phone, I had to sign several additional agreements (even though we have had Comcast for 8+years & had recently upgraded our service) and then Chat person abruptly stopped communicating?? Guess it was time to go home. All of this took about 90 minutes, or so but still no service. I\'ll save you details of the rest of my frustrating experience....I was able to go back online and eventually activated the modem after a total of a couple hours (not the 15 minutes advertised). I think Chat person did do something to our account to allow the activation.\n\nMy message is this, assuming Xfinity is your ISP, just call them to start with and forget the self-service activation option. Hopefully they won\'t hang up on you.

A little over 7 years ago, I bought the Motorola SB6120 to replace the crummy cable modem that Comcast charged me monthly to use. I had no problems with the SB6120, but got an email from Xfinity saying I needed to upgrade my equipment. I guess because they have increased the speed on my service and the SB6120 is so old it may not be supported with updates from Motorola. OK...I paid $75 for the SB6120 and it probably saved me over $750 in monthly rental for 7+ years.\nDecide first if you want DOCSIS 3.0 or 3.1 because the Docsis 3.1 is new and will probably be usable for years to come. Motorola only has 1 Docsis 3.1 cable modem available today which is the MB8600 and is almost twice the price of the Docsis 3.0 MB7621. If you compare the specs, the MB8600 is faster but at nominal 1000 Mbps and Comcast certified 400 Mbps, the MB7621 is way faster than my 150 Mbps service.\nI got it today and got it activated and hooked up to my new Motorola MR1700 router. The process was fast and easy if you can figure what they are trying to say in the quick start guide. I activated with my notebook directly connected to the cable modem and the speed exceeded my 150 Mbps service by almost 30%. After direct wire of my notebook through the router, my speed was also exceeding my service speed at the same level.\nThe only way I can lose on this purchase is if Docsis 3.0 becomes obsolete in less than 8 months and I'll bet that is unlikely."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I recently upgraded my Cox internet from the Premier (150Mb) to the Ultimate (300Mb) option.

Works great with Spectrum even though they won\'t say it\'s supported. Connect your coax line, plug in, then allow the modem to come fully online before connecting a router or PC. The modem will not "bond" with a router or PC unless it\'s online first (for the first time). Any time you switch routers you must factory reset the modem before it will bond with a new MAC address. You\'ll need to call your cable internet provider and provide the modem\'s MAC address so that it\'s provisioned on their network.\n\nAnother note of importance for those who want to access the modem\'s Admin UI at 192.168.100.1 - if your network is anything but 192.168.1.x, you may not be able to reach the UI from a web browser on any of your network devices until your router is set up for that particular subnet. I was not able to get to the modem from a 192.168.0.x network, even though I could ping it (on 192.168.100.1) no problem. Motorola tech support stated that they don\'t necessarily see this behavior with all routers, but from my own experience I was not able to open the Admin UI within a web browser until I changed my ASUS router\'s subnet to 192.168.1.x. The Admin UI is useful for viewing the signal strength on your upstream and downstream bonded channels, among other things (such as the connection status, etc.).\n\nA number of reviewers have written negative reviews of this modem, mainly complaining about downstream issues. Make sure your downstream QAM signal Power Level is between -15dBmV to +15dBmV on all channels, SNR should be 35dB-45dB (ideally). If you notice that your power levels are outside that range, you will likely have downstream connection issues and not have full throughput. Upstream Pwr levels should be between 35-55dBmV.

So in order to save almost $15 a month I decided to buy my own modem to replace my aging Motorola (Arris) SB6141. My SB6141 netted me 259Mbps down and 35Mbps up on my previous plan of 400Mbps down and 35Mbps up, which is great for a 8x4 channel Docsis 3.0 cable modem. So since Arris bought Motorola modem cable division I decided to get another one having had a great product with the 6141.

And you can get a refurbished model for half the price which is even better!\n\nInside the Arris SB8200 is a Broadcom BCM3390 chipset (a much needed change from the SB6190’s Intel Puma 6 chipset which had hardware bugs and caused them a lawsuit for good measure), 3GB of RAM, 128MB S34ML01G200TFV00 Spansion flash memory NAND and 16MB Macronix MX25L12805D SPI NAND flash memory. The SB8200 is capable of downstream bonded channels up to 32 SCQAM or 2 OFDM and upstream bonded channels up to 8 SCQAM or 2 OFDMA (32x8 SCQAM and 2x2 OFDM). The Ethernet ports are only Gigabit Ethernet and therefore the Max you will get is 950Mbps average down and it will never be possible to the the boxes 10Gbps selling spiel. Even if you don't have Docsis 3.1 in your area or a Gigabit internet speed plan this modem will serve you for many years to come. And this modem has 3GB of RAM, which the other Docsis 3.1 modems have 256MB or less! RAM! Oh and with most providers (Xfinity included) you can call them and add a separate IP address for the second Ethernet port for a small fee (Xfinity charges like $5.95 if I'm remembering correctly). This would be great if you wanted to connect a gaming console directly to the modem for the best speeds and then connect your home router to the second. And eventually you'll be able to kick in 2Gbps by merging those two Ethernet ports!\n\nSetup of the device was quick and easy and you simply plugin the coxial cable, Ethernet cable to your device (router for 99% of the people) and power cable and you are off and running. A quick call to your internet provider (Xfinity for me) to add the HFC MAC address and the modem is registered and provisioned and I'm up and running within ten minutes. Xfinity will try to send out a tech but you can get them to override it if you know what you are doing. Gigabit internet can be extremely temperamental as we'll discuss later which is the reason Xfinity requires sending out a tech on all Gigabit plan installs. And again this is simply a modem so you will need a router if you want wifi or the ability to connect more than one device.\n\nThe performance of the Arris SB8200 is top notch and I was easily able to pull my provisioned modem speeds from my Xfinity service. I was able to test 1.4Gbps down (Fast.com also includes backend speed as actual can only be 950Mbps as I mentioned above) and 45Mbps up. On Speedtest.net my tests are almost always 930-960Mbps (or near that) down and 40-50Mbps up. These speeds are AMAZING and just my upload speed is faster than most people's download speeds! Right now Xfinity is only utilizing Docsis 3.1 for the downstream channels so the modem lights will have a blue light for downstream and a green light for upstream (this is not an error or bug).\n\nMy issues arose with my Xfinity service and resets, slow speeds (300Mbps Max down), etc. Xfinity sent out a tech and that did nothing. So another rech came and found a ton of ingress coming from 4 lines on my tap. He trapped them off and I was up and running with Gigabit speeds again. Then the resets started, at night almost every 10 minutes! It was only happening between 10pm and 7am average, EVERY NIGHT! I had more techs out, supervisors and more supervisors! After a month (and many hours of my time and speaking up) the issue was resolved as it was a bad line amplifier which was causing noise and caring my upstream to spike into the high 50s, which triggers resets on the modem and t3/t4 errors. Now my neighbors were having issues on certain channels and slow internet but their modems WERE NOT RESETTING! And we knew my modem wasn't bad as it was fine for over 12 hours a day with no errors at all in the log until night began to fall everyday. And In fact my neighbors never lost internet, EVER but my internet was almost useless at night time. So the Arris SB8200 is extremely sensitive to t3/t4 errors and the threshold for errors and resets is much higher for the Xfinity owned gateways and modems. Also Arris had out out a firmware update previously about severe sensitivity to t3/t4 errors and I had the latest version but I was still having issues so they still need to work on this. If you are experiencing issues with your Arris modem navigate to http://192.168.100.1 and you'll be able to see basic signal information, modem error logs, modem and firmware info. You can use this information and post it in the support forums to get help and diagnose any problems.\n\nBut now that the line and backend errors are corrected it's smooth sailing and I'm saving myself a ton of money (the new Xfinity modem charge is $14 plus tax and it will be $15 by the beginning of 2020 so you pay for the modem in a little over a year) every year and you'll have the newest technology that is even better than the Xfinity modems and gateways, many of which use the Puma 6 chipset which I mentioned above (causing severe lag and timeouts which can kill online gaming or video watching). So I'm paying $69.99 and getting Gigabit speeds of 950Mbps down and 48Mbps up which is a great deal hands down and you won't find speeds that cheap ANYWHERE ELSE! The Arris brand is keeping the Motorola spirit alive and kicking which is great for competition! The Arris SB8200 is the best modem you can buy for your money right now and if you can find a refurbished unit on Amazon even better (they didn't have any when I bought mine but three weeks later they did and for $100 cheaper)!"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "DON'T BUY THIS MODEM. I'm so surprised that I experienced all of the same issues as the other negative reviewers. I ordered this modem because of a notice from xfinity that the DOCSIS 3.0 modems were no longer being supported (or something like that). Having a used SB6121 for about 5 years, which was still running great, I thought it was a good opportunity to upgrade, especially since I have had such a good experience with the older Surfboard modem. I had the modem for about 4 months, and suddenly it locked up on me, and we were out of internet for a couple of days. A lot of people seemed to have the same experience after 4-6 months. This also happened coincidentally after I came back from vacation. It seems like it it has happened to some others who gone on vacation to find their SB8200s locked up. Maybe it has to do with the overheating issue? But for 2 days, an ISP tech visit, hours of back and forth calling with xfinity support and Arris support, we determined it was the modem. This WASTED SO MUCH TIME. I was looking forward to getting some work done before returning to work after vacation. Instead I was on the phone and with a technician throughout the better part of my whole weekend. Arris support was the worst. They refused to acknowledge my issue and tried to hurry me off the phone, throwing the ball back at the ISP. I told them my old modem worked right away after activating it back. They said they could not continue to troubleshoot unless I reactivated the new (SB8200), so again I had to call the ISP to switch back to a non-working modem, taking me offline for another few hours. With each call I had to repeat the same troubleshooting steps. Doesn't the customer support communicate with one another? Finally, on my third call Arris determined it was the modem and gave me the options for a replacement. The standard option requires you to send it back first, before getting the replacement. Give about 2 weeks for this. The advanced option lets them send it to you within 7 days for $15. The expedited option is $50. I chose the standard option. But really, I want my money back. I don't want another unit I can't trust, and I have to wait over 2 weeks for it. Unfortunately it failed outside of the Amazon refund window. After all of these negative reviews, I would hope Arris recognizes the problem with their units and somehow communicate to their customers they are working on improving it. I don't think this should be an Amazon's choice product anymore. I really felt let down by this one. I'm going to wait for the replacement unit, hopefully it doesn't fail again in another 4 months and require 12 hours of customer service to get another unit."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'The product arrived in a very nice box. Split case glossy package that was well formed to protect the product and of course attractive. Upon separating both halves and opening there say what appeared to look identical to my previous model however it is not. Upon closer inspection this is the new Docsis 3.1 well raved about online. You will first notice two gigabit ports. This is where the Con is and it also applies to every other brand D-3.1 modem on the market with multiple E-net ports. You may only choose one. Attempting to use two will cause ISP confusion and your devices will not function properly. You would need your provider to assign another ISP address to the second port and some may or may not opt for this feature or may charge an additional $10/mo fee. Since it is also not wireless you will need to provide your own wireless router and any sub Ethernet network ports if you choose to multiply incoming/outgoing connections. The Pros are obvious this beast is insanely fast. Even with my iPhone I am getting 500mb/s download speeds and 40 mb/s upload speeds which is a hardware limitation at my end although it is ridiculously fast compared to most people’s standard home hardware. These speeds eliminate all buffering issues with streaming, and allow ultra fast downloading of very large files for you IT guys. For the price I recommend the Arris SB8620 and if your service offers higher speeds to consider using this model even for 250, or 400 mb/s speeds it will be more true to those speeds than its predecessor SB6190.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'If you are looking to jump on the gigabit bandwagon for your home internet package, this is one of the best places to start. Among the current Docsis 3.1 modems on the market capable of handling these speeds, this model wins the prize when it comes to stability, speed, latency and hardware. We have been running it straight since our first test of the modem, without a single reboot yet--now going on 2 months (thus far). Our speeds have been consistent throughout this window and with no outages (knock on virtual wood) or any other red flags. As mentioned, it has the best hardware we have seen (including memory) in a Docsis 3.1 modem and it seems to reflect well with some of the Arris/Moto models we have benchmarked in the past--with the slight exception of the SB6190, which came close but latency had pulled that one down in performance some thanks to the PUMA chipset inside. This model sports a new chipset with low latency and the rest we have already pointed out.\n\n**If you have found our review helpful, please vote it as helpful below so I know.

A fairly slow100 Mb/S. Should not be stressing out the SB8200. It can run fine for hours and then "stall" for some reason. It takes about 45 seconds to clear, and then resumes normal operation. I don\'t have to reset it or pull the power cord. Still, very annoying for a state-of-the-art product. From the web interface "Product Information" page, I am running hardware version 6, software version SB8200.0200.174F.311915.NSH.RT.NA (believe it or not!). Can\'t the software guys come up with something more succinct?? I went to the Arris support page: no firmware updates available.\n\nMy modem does not get super hot like others have complained about. Warm, but not hot. Plus, getting to the web interface page (192.168.100.1) is very intermittent. Sometimes it will work, sometimes my browser (Chrome) times out trying to get there. So, it\'s not a configuration or firewall issue. It\'s LOUSY FIRMWARE in the SB8200. I can\'t believe they haven\'t fixed the stall problem & this problem by now. This product has been available for a couple years. Very disappointing reflection on Arris.\n\nWhen (if) this modem eventually craps out, I won\'t be buying another Arris product.\n\nIMPORTANT UPDATE: This modem requires signal levels not considered "standard" by Xfinity (Comcast). Comcast considers 38 - 40 dBmV upstream power within range, but this modem requires 45 - 51 dBmV. Have your Comcast tech install an 8 dB attenuator on the modem (he can do this on site - no need to change anything @ the headend). My modem has been rock solid since my tech installed the attenuator on my modem (2 days). I will post an update next week after watching it for 7+ days.\n\nANOTHER UPDATE: Modem has been running for 45 days without a single re-boot. I can get to the web interface (192.168.100.1) 100% of the time. Speed test has consistently been what I\'m paying Comcast for.

My modem also wouldn't connect to my router due to similar binding problem. The problem was after connecting the router and the new modem, the router was still looking for the MAC ID from the old modem. This was solved by disconnecting the power and coaxial cable from the modem. Connect the router and modem. Wait for a couple minutes, plug the power back to the modem, then wait for 3 to 5 minute, then plug the coaxial cable back to the modem. My hope is others don't have to spends hours figuring it out like I did"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'God how I hate this useless, brick of a product, and the uncaring, backward facing company that made it. After three months, my Arris DOCSIS 3.1 modem died. Three months. It took me quite a while, working with my service provider, to confirm that the modem had killed my network, but confirm it we did. We verified everything from signal strength coming into the modem to two way communications between the modem and my ISP. It had basically bricked. So I ran out to my local computer store and purchased a replacement modem because I didn’t want my internet to be down for days on end while I was trying to get the original modem replaced. It’s a good thing I did that, as you will see. Anyway, the minute I plugged the new modem I bought in and had it provisioned, my networks popped back into existence. This was ABSOLUTE CONFIRMATION that the modem was at fault.\n\nOK, that was inconvenient enough considering it was basically a brand new modem, but it got much worse. Although I had purchased a new modem, I thought I would at least get a replacement for the old modem since it was still under warranty. I could just keep it around as a backup in case I had an outage again. So I called Arris. Great God almighty, their customer service is a grist mill. I spent over an hour on the phone trying to get them to send me a replacement modem. Instead of just accepting that I had a faulty modem, they INSISTED I run test after test, crawling around behind my equipment, rerouting cables, running diagnostics, resetting the modem, rebooting my computer, everything short of crawling through snake infested sludge. Finally they asked me to call my service provider and re-provision the old, defective modem so they could run some other feeble test. I refused, but the moron on the phone, script burned indelibly into his brain, kept repeating over and over again “but that is the next step.” Technician wanna cracker? It wasn’t until I finally got a manager on the phone, and dug my heels in that they agreed to send me a replacement. Thank God I had bought a replacement. To get a replacement sent out immediately, Arris wanted me to pay an additional fee. Seriously? Bringing down my network and wasting an hour of my time on the phone wasn’t enough? Since I now had a working modem, I took the “standard” option in which I have to send the old modem back and then wait 7-10 more days to get a replacement. Now that’s some customer service! Nothing like being without your internet for weeks on end because of a crappy piece of equipment. I just don’t get it. Why not just say “I’m sorry you had this problem. Since replacing the modem made the problem go away, you obviously have a defective modem. We’ll just send you a new one.” I could then send them the old modem and they can run tests and diagnostics till the cows come home ... on THEIR time, not mine. Even if they can fix it, and it wasn’t really broken, so what? Reset it, and sell it as a refurbished product. They get money back from the product, and the customer, me, is happy because I got a quick replacement. Instead, they treat you like you’re an evil villain trying to get a new modem out of them for no good reason. Bruhahahaha!! I will control the world with replacement modems! No one can stop me now! Sheesh.\n\nSo here’s the bottom line. Arris makes crappy, unreliable equipment that bricks, and getting a replacement from them is like trying to convince the devil to take communion. Their idea of service is leaving the customer with a water boarding experience. If you want a modem that actually works and that the manufacturing company will stand behind, better keep looking. You’re wasting your time here.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'While modems like the SB6190 state that they can provide up to 1.4Gbps, most ISPs require DOCSIS 3.1 for their gigabit packages. My ISP (RCN) is one of them. Swapping the modem took no work and it immediately registered on DOCSIS 3.1. The modem connects directly to an Asus RT-AC68R and my PC is hardwired directly to the router. 900+ down hardwired, 550 down on 5G, and 190 down on 2.4G (wireless speeds measured using an Asus PCE-AC68 wireless card). Ping times are around 9-15ms across all connections.\n\nThe issue I have with the deceptive marketing is that this modem is advertised as a "10Gbps Max Speed" modem. This is technically correct because 10Gbps is the spec for DOCSIS 3.1 and this modem could receive a 10 Gbps down/up connection to and from your ISP. However, both ethernet ports on the modem are gigabit. Even with proper link aggregation, the fastest down/up speed you could ever see with this modem is 2 Gbps. As a consumer, I have yet to find a reason to go beyond gigabit.

I\'ve had Arris modems with great performance for years and this one worked extremely well when it worked. Emphasis on "when it worked". BTW, this was at the higher end of things, 460 Mbps down, and I was looking to future proof things with a Docsis 3.1 setup which could hook me up at 960 Mbps when I chose to move over.

I\'ll explain what to do though. Xfinity detects a new modem and asks you to sign in in the browser. It told me that something went wrong each time. I called their support line and I got a guy that didn\'t know anything and told me I needed to schedule a technician. He told me he couldn\'t see my new modem. Here\'s the trick. First of all don\'t call the regular tech support number. I did a lot of google digging and this is what I found. "Give this automated device activation line a shot: 1-855-652-3446. Even if the automation fails, you then get connected to an advanced repair representative rather than a tier 1 phone rep. Good luck !!!" I called a second time. This time I called that number. You get the exact same answering machine, but when you get to a human this time I got someone that knew what he was doing. This is what should happen. The tech will manually enter your modem into their system using the model and the mac address (found at the bottom of the router). Then he\'ll provision (push an update) your modem. Then you\'re good to go. After that my modem worked and it\'s working like a charm. I\'m getting average speeds of about 800 mbs. Good luck. PS. google that phone number just to ease your mind and make sure it is indeed an xfinity number.'}]

It will provide fantastic speeds and will be a nice upgrade for older routers not capable of keeping up with the increasing internet speeds provided today by most ISPs.\n\nUnfortunately, Netgear decided to dramatically change the internal components and then still sell it under the same name (R6700). With that said, Amazon has a little product alert indicating either R6700 or R6700v2. Well, they are shipping the R6700v2 which does not match some of the specifications shown on this page (in particular the CPU speed).\n\nI know because after receiving a router that did not match, they offered to replace it and send the first version of the router (the one with the higher clock speeds as indicated on the actual product details) and ended up receiving the same thing (another V2).\n\nI will say that for those interested in a router that will not be flashed with custom software or that will not use other more advanced functions a router can provide, this is no problem. For those of us that know the hardware and know what we are expecting, that is a problem.\n\nI have it a 3 star because any company that makes an original version with better specs and then turns around and significantly changes this without changing the model number and making minor modifications on the box (see amazon's own photos - both boxes are pictured) simply does not deserve my trust. Speaking of ratings, many of the ratings you see here are lumped up with other Netgear products and also apply to the original more capable version.\n\nI encourage you do your research and check reviews from different sources.

With phones, tablets, games and TVs I typically have 15 to 20 devices using the router at any one time but this unit should be able to handle that many with ease. After trying several fixes (firmware upgrade, assigning IP addresses, changing channels, etc), I finally reached out to Netgear at [email protected] - and they are AMAZING!! They called me at a time I chose and I gave them permission to log into my computer to check my router and network. After about 15 to 20 minutes, the level 2 tech decided that my router had a hardware problem and they expedited a new unit (R6700v2) to my door, sent along a return label so I wouldn\'t have to pay to ship back my old unit and are still keeping in contact with me to make sure all is well. I put the new unit in service on 1/4/2018 and, of course, we are back to working GREAT.

I bought the official OEM Digital AV Multiport Adapter when I got the MacBook, but it only has one USB-A port and I needed a minimum of 2. I bought this hub because it was the most recent one added on Amazon at the time, meaning it should have the latest technology in it. Here\'s what I\'ve discovered using it. Hopefully this will be helpful to someone:\n• With a USB 3.1 Samsung T3 SSD connected to the hub with the correct USB cable, I get ~380 MB/sec write, ~420 MB/sec read. So don\'t worry, you really will get USB 3 speeds with this hub.\n• Your total USB power budget is about 1A across all three USB-A ports. That\'s not 1A per port, that\'s 1A TOTAL (1A/3=333mA per USB port). That\'s all you get, and that power is all coming from the single USB-C port on the MacBook so forget plugging in a bunch of self-powered USB hard drives. Oh and don\'t think you\'ll be clever and plug in the MacBook\'s USB-C charger for more power--that won\'t work. More on that in a moment.\n• I successfully connected the Samsung T3 SSD (roughly 600-700mA power draw), an Android phone (charging at 300mA, verified using the Ampere app), and a keyboard (100mA). In this configuration, I tried copying files between the Samsung SSD and the MacBook and the Android phone and the MacBook (both copies going simultaneously) and it worked fine.\n• I couldn\'t plug in the Samsung T3 SSD and a SanDisk 32GB USB 3.0 flash drive at the same time. Once I tried to copy files from one to the other, the copy would hang in the Finder for about 15-20 secs, then the Samsung would unmount. The two devices combined most likely exceeded the hub\'s 900mA/1A power budget.\n• I was able to plug in two SanDisk USB 3.0 flash drives and copy files between them. So, I\'m betting their combined current draw was less than 1A. A third one probably wouldn\'t have worked.\n• The Power Delivery feature doesn\'t actually power anything connected to the hub. It\'s solely there to provide power to the MacBook. There\'s no difference using the hub with the USB-C power input connected and not using it, other than the laptop charges. Again, it won\'t get you more power to run more stuff off the hub\'s USB-A ports.\n• I connected a Logitech M557 Bluetooth mouse and it seemed to work OK while the hub was connected.\n• I didn\'t test the Ethernet port. According to System Information it is still drawing power, possibly 200mA or so.\n• This hub uses a VIA chipset, possibly the VL817. This is reported by the System Information app on the Mac.\nSo, bottom line is it gives me my much needed second USB port, even though I\'m sorta on thin ice with the power draw. If you have hard drives that have their own power supplies (meaning they plug into a power strip), then you\'ll most likely be OK with this hub.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-4 review-rating', 'review_body': " I am using this product every day and it has been working. I intend to keep using it and I would recommend it.\nBut there are 5 minor things I experienced when using with a current model Catalina MacBook Pro. I will document them in a quick video too:\n1. it gets really hot. This is typical of products that heat sink to the outer chassis, especially if it is metal and especially if you have all ports populated with active USB electronics.\n2. The connector is hard to withdraw from the USBC port because it fits tight and the handle is totally smooth. Finger grips or surface knurls would make it much easier to unplug it.\n3. When I use the HDMI output, for some reason my computer sees it as a DisplayPort device. This hasn't caused any problems yet, but HDMI and DisplayPort EDID codes are not the same, so I can see situations where it could be an issue.\n4. Every so often the audio over the HDMI output will not work. I have been unable to track this problem to my computer or my TV since they work independently and with every other scenario I have tried. So it must be the hub. If I put the computer to sleep, the problem will be fixed when I wake it back up.\n5. When the computer is shut down, sometimes the power light on my webcam will flicker. This shouldn't really be happening since the power supply input is strictly for charging the computer and shouldn't be powering anything else. So far it has not caused issues, but it worries me a little.\n\nIt is worth the money, good size, good construction, so far I am happy with it.\nTHANKS!"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on November 21, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Ever since I got the new style of MacBook Pro I\'ve been looking for the perfect dongle. It\'s a running joke that Mac users carry a bag full of dongles, and unfortunately there\'s some truth to it - in my backpack I have a pouch with 2x USB-A to C adapters and a USB-C to HDMI adapter. If you\'re looking for a solid way to simplify things you\'ve found it.\n\nAdmittedly I\'d never bought a USB-C to ethernet adapter, but I had one for my older MacBook because it\'s good to have from time to time. This one works quite well in that regard - I\'m getting gigabit speeds. I attached a speed test showing over 900 up, but my Mac shows a 1000 tx rate in network settings.\n\nThe USB ports work as expected for USB 3.0. I put an image of the system report, but\'s showing a 5 GB speed and the transfer speeds seem to reflect that. 3 ports is a pretty generous amount - I\'d almost consider a smaller adapter with 2, but if your complaint is too many USB ports that\'s a good sign. Unfortunately the world is not ready to live without USB type A, and this adapter has a lot of it.\n\nThe HDMI adapter is 4k 30hz, and that\'s the best you\'re going to get on a multipart dongle. I\'ve done my research looking for this exact adapter with 4k 60hz and while I\'ve found a few that claim it, it\'s always 4k 30hz. If you want 60hz you need to get a stand-alone USB-C to HDMI adapter with no other ports (like the one I mentioned above). I put a photo of my Mac recognizing my 4k TV\'s resolution (3480x2160).\n\nThe power delivery works - it charged my 15" Macbook successfully. It has 60w power delivery, so depending on your computer that may be slower than what you\'re used to. The 15 inch MacBook charger is 85w, but it also has 4 ports available so the power delivery isn\'t particularly necessary. For the 13 inch Macs with 2 ports the charger is 60w, so this will work fine. If you have the 12 inch MacBook with 1 port this would be a lifesaver - everything you need to make it usable.\n\nOverall it\'s a great adapter and does as well as it potentially can for every port it offers. It has an indicator light when it\'s on that I\'m not sure actually serves any function, but the build quality is great. Aesthetically it looks great (and would look great with a space grey MacBook), though I will admit that I wish it was offered in silver to match mine.

Windows 10? Android? Yes!\n\nThe design is a sleek metal case, seamless, with no visible screws.\nSlender, with no parts to lose, takes up very little space in the bag -- about as much as two Sharpie pens.\nIt has a captive 6-inch cable with USB-C, and connections for USB-C PD, HDMI, Ethernet, and three USB 3.0 (blue) sockets. Inside is a USB Hub, Ethernet Adapter, and HDMI display (&audio) output.\n\nThe HDMI output is driven by your computer\'s internal graphics adapter, so the second monitor is integrated into both Windows and Linux with no additional drivers. I believe it\'s done with a Via Labs VL100 "Billboard" Display Alternate mode adapter for USB-C, so it adds a second Monitor/Display instance, but not a new Display Adapter.\n\nThe USB xHCI hub (VIA Labs 2109:0817 VL812 Super Speed Hub) appears on the bus, and this provides the three open USB ports as well as the new Ethernet Controller. It\'s a Realtek USB GbE Family Controller: VID: 0bda and PID: 8153. Drivers were automatically available in both Ubuntu Linux and Windows 10. It linked up to a 1Gb Ethernet as normal, no prompts or settings needed.\n\nFor the adventurous, this UtechSmart device also works with the Samsung Galaxy S9+, and surprisingly well!\nPlug a USB Thumbdrive into the ports and it appears as a Storage Device, perfect for copying pictures off the phone.\nThe Ethernet works as well, and automatically gets a DHCP address and switches over to wired connection.\nThe HDMI monitor shows a clone of the Galaxy S9+ screen in perfect detail. Best to rotate the phone to horizontal to make the most of the monitor. (Sorry, no Samsung Dex environment here, but a USB Mouse and Keyboard work just fine.)\nPowering the adapter also charges the phone, as expected, but not as fast as a direct connection. I was more impressed that the phone happily powered the whole adapter, with HDMI, Ethernet, and USB from its own battery, no problem.\n\nI was going to poke fun at the whole Phone + Adapter + Monitor, Ethernet, USB Drive, Keyboard, Mouse, but now that it\'s been running for a while on my desk, I\'m imagining it could be useful if you intend to be at your phone for hours, hammering out email or Amazon reviews.\n\nAll in all, this is a really nice piece of kit to have in your travel bag, or as a single-connection desktop dock. It has replaced my USB-On-The-Go (OTG) adapters, as those were always a bit sketchy with some USB devices, and prevented charging.. Even if I don\'t need all the features, it\'s small enough on the bag that it\'s replaced a number of other adapters already.\n\nI accepted an offer to test and review this device, and received it for free, but this is my honest and unbiased review. Pictures are my own.'}]

Information is scaffolded well, laid out clearly and concisely. Material is not dumbed down. Lesson are SO important for 6th/7th grade and the way they explain exponents and powers of 10 and percents are critical in mastering material needed in later grades. It isn't straight drilling, but offers lots of review. This book actually teaches your child how to do the problems, but you have to teach the WHY. The materials is right in line with a 5th grade curriculum. My 4th grader is advanced learner with exposure to fractions, multi-step multiplication, area models, metrics and division. This is a solid book for her to advance to the 6th grade curriculum this year and I don't feel like anything is getting missed. My 7th grader has gaps of knowledge ALL OVER THE PLACE and struggles with Math. I am taking her back to build her up. She has more exposure to upper level content, but never learned WHY she was doing things and manipulating problems a certain way. This is just what she needs to get caught back up. The schools say they remediate your kids (they don't - they just teach them how to pass the EOG test), but this book actually does teach your child (you need to help of course). If you have your child work through it consistently and with fidelity, they will either advance their knowledge one level or bridge gaps they may have missed at this level.

He told me that when he was in Math class, he felt like the lessons were second nature, because he was already exposed to it. His Math standard test scores were excellent.

There is not that much new in this current publication. So, if you have the older versions of Read4Today and Write4today, you really don\'t need this "new" product. That said, this is a very good supplemental/practice book. I have found them all to be very useful for homework, review, and mini assessments.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Bought to help child that was getting behind in reading skills and she has made good progress using these lessons. She said some of the pages are ones she had at school and I like that as this means we are reinforcing skills that she is getting in classroom.

There are assignments on narratives but mostly on personal experiences, which is great in our case as that is the key area of development. But I would love to see some 'summarization' or 'write your opinion' kind of assignments as well. Or at least more of them if I missed out on noticing them. Secondly, the book has similar pattern of assignments so the kids can get used to it rather on figuring it out every time they get back to it. The smaller text with question/answer are rich in both vocabulary and information. There are exercises on grammar, punctuation, but not many on synonyms/antonyms. If I could see an example of the assignments or strategies to attempt the writings that would be very helpful.

I purchased this workbook, along with a couple of others, to help my son, who just changed schools. His new school is behind his previous school and I want to help him keep progressing and not get behind. My son has a learning disability and it helps for us to work together and spend extra time on subjects he struggles to master. I use these workbooks during school vacations and summer break to help my son keep his skills growing and to reinforce what he learned at school. These worksheets are perfect!

So, when the child followed the instructions for the first lesson, cut out the items on the page and pasted it into their book...they actually completely ruined the second lesson by removing all the instructions!

[{'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I am a reading tutor and this is my favorite workbook. It is particularly good for students who have difficulty with inference and causation. Topics are a mix of fiction and related non-fiction. Along with other 3rd grade tasks, it teaches how the emotions and interactions of the characters affect their behavior. It has some direct answer questions and some that require inference. An example is a story about a boy having a bad day at soccer practice and wanting to quit. The student has to identify characteristics of the boy and the coach as well as why the boy wants to quit. It asks for the students to identify parts in the story that tell how the boy is feeling and what he is thinking. The next story is the mother asking questions to identify that the boy missed lunch and coming up with a solution of a snack before practice. The questions then relate back to the student if they ever wanted to give up. A drawback is that the Grade 3 is prominent on the cover, but pages can be pulled out for delayed readers. The stories and illustrations could easily be used with late elementary.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-3 review-rating', 'review_body': 'We purchased 9 of these Spectrum books (3 Reading, 3 Language Arts & 3 Writing, Grades 6, 3, &1) and we ended up returning all of them, except for Spectrum Reading, Grade 1. We started homeschooling on our own after the schools closed down due to COVID-19. I bought these books as a way to help the kids round out their school year since the public schools were in a scramble to adapt to online learning. While I love their set up, it required too much daily writing. We bought 9 of these books so this review is going to be copied and pasted on to each one.\n\nIf you have a reluctant writer or are planning on buying several different Spectrum workbooks for one child, then I will warn you that the workbooks require a lot of writing. A LOT of writing. If you do love the layout of these books, then I would suggest that you alternate which ones your child works on in a single day. My oldest daughter (6th grade) is not a reluctant writer and even she dreaded having to do these books. So if you want to try them out I suggest only getting one at a time and doing only a page a day. A lesson is generally 2-3 pages. If you have a reluctant writer those 2-3 pages will take over an hour to complete. If you child has no issue with writing, then they might be a good fit. Or if you are just wanting one workbook to help your child brush up on certain skills it can be a great choice.\n\nI also noticed the the workbooks seem to stay on the same topic no matter which grade level book you are working out of. So if the 6th grade book was on a lesson about pronouns, then the same lesson number would also be about pronouns in the 3rd & 1st grade books. So this can be helpful if you have multiple children and want to keep them on the same lesson idea. Just be aware that while many line up exactly there are a few off here and there.\n\nThe only one of these workbooks we enjoyed is the Spectrum Reading, Grade 1. There is little to no writing required in the book. The first half is an ongoing story about Little Duck. So you read three story "clips" and then ask your child the questions written below the clips. This is normally only a few minutes long, depending on how talkative your child is when it comes to the answers. The other side of the lesson generally has 1-3 photos in 3 rows and the directions are as simple as circling what goes together, number the sequence, write the beginning sound, write the ending sound, identify the cluster, etc. Very little writing. We haven\'t yet gotten to the second part of the book, but it looks like it is going to be longer stories with comprehension questions. I can update my review once we hit that part.\n\nIf you need ideas for what else to look for in case you decide against these workbooks: We ended up switching out our 6th grade writing for an actual writing program (Essentials in Writing), our 3rd & 1st grade writing book was switched out for Writing with Ease (available on Amazon, highly recommend if you have reluctant writers). Our 6th grade language arts was switched out for the same program she does for writing. The language arts for 3rd &1st grade was switched out for Grammar Galaxy. Our 3rd grade reading workbook was replaced with 180 Days of Reading, 4th Grade (same comprehension workbook, but the answers are in multiple choice form instead of writing out long answers). Our 6th grade reading has been replaced for now with Evan Moor\'s Greek and Roman Myths Literature Pockets (also on Amazon).'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'As a 2nd grade teacher, I highly recommend this workbook for any rising third grader or as a review for third graders.

It's slightly on the big side (see picture) but he's handling it well; no issues so far. It's not for pinpointing his location but gives me an idea of where he is in the neighborhood so I can call him if necessary. To minimize size, get a keychain holder with just the rim"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-4 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Pros:__________\n• No weight issues what-so-ever. There will be no problems with this on keys, bags, etc.\n• A simple compact design that doesn’t draw attention.\n• Setup took seconds to get ready as the software is already on the current IOS.\n• Waterproof with an IP67 rating. This means it can take the rain or even if it’s dropped in a deep puddle. Overall, it can hold against Mother Nature.\n• Battery replacement is quick and painless.\n• Thank you Apple for not making your own expensive battery for this. The battery inside is a CR2032. These usually last one year and are super cheap to get. You can find them at the checkout lines of a grocery store such as Walmart (and of course Amazon).\n• With Apple’s ultra wideband technology, the precision location feature is the highlight for this device. If you’re in the area of your Airtag, this feature will guide you to where the tracker is. I put my Airtag in a book, under my bed, even in the fridge and my iPhone 12 gave me visual arrows on where to go. When I got near it, the speakers on it begin the beep. This method is fantastic because you’re able to use sight and sound to find your Airtag.\n• Left my Airtag near my colleague and walked probably one block away from the location. I turned on the lost mode, which will be in the setting of Apple’s “Find My” app, and boom, showed me right where I left it. This is thanks because my colleague had an iPhone 11 and my Airtag was able to connect with it. By putting it in lost mode, it allows other your Airtag to connect with other Apple iPhones in order to help you see where it was last spotted.\n• Adding from above, my colleague was able to quickly scan my Airtag, revealing the contact info that I approved. The whole process took less than 20 seconds for him.\n• In regards to privacy, your Airtag doesn’t store your location data for public viewing. All info about your location is encrypted and anonymized.\n• No fear of being tracked because if someone puts their Airtag near/on you, your iPhone will notify you if there is an Airtag near you (the current IOS already has the software to notify you, even if you don’t have an Airtag). Just like the one ring from LOTR, it wants to be found.\n• I felt the speakers on the device are loud enough to not only grab your attention but also grab the attention of strangers, if you left it in a public location.\n• Overall, all Airtags that are separated from their owners, for a while, will play its beeping sound in order to alert anyone around.\n• You don’t need to have Bluetooth always on for your iPhone. In other words, it will not affect the battery usage of the phone itself.\n• Yes, you can have more than one Airtag on file for your iPhone to track.\n• If you borrowed your friend’s bag, which has on their own Airtag, you can choose to pause the alerts on your end so it won’t keep harassing you.\n• A neat perk I also found is when just to ask your Siri where your Airtag is, the Airtag’s beeping chime will being to play.\n• The scanning feature works on any latest android phones. Anyone with an android will be able to scan the Airtag to reveal your contact info. Cheers to that.\n\nCons and Oks:__________\n• The Airtag will scratch and you will need to accept it. My only advice is to stick with the white color because that will hide some of the worse scratches (except in the middle).\n• It’s small enough to put it on a keychain but sadly too large/bulky to put it inside your wallet.\n• The accessories cost with this can almost equal what you paid the Airtag itself, even more.\n• If you have an Android this will not work. As mentioned, you’re able to scan an Airtag to discover the contact info, but that’s it.\n• This is not a device to be put on your dog, or your child, because the device will not give you “real-time” tracking. It relies on the connections with other iPhones to help give an accurate, but not exact, location.\n• If there are no iPhones in the area, or if you travel into the world of nature, this device will not work. The good news is that there are billions of iPhones throughout the world, but still not every location will have an iPhone (with an update IOS).\n• On average I got around an 20-30ft of distance that the Airtag can connect with my iPhone, while not losing the signal. This is alright, I know for some this might be a bummer (not to me).\n• You won’t be able to share your location. It would be great to have this feature because it can no doubt help speed up tracking down your misplaced item, especially if you’re not in the area and someone you know is.\n• The Airtag doesn’t alert you if you leave it behind. You first have to realize that you don’t have the item, then proceed to use your iPhone to find it.\n• No built-in altimeter. For example, if you lose your Airtag in a 20-story building, the Airtag will tell you it’s in the building (if they’re iPhone around) but won’t be able to pinpoint the height level, or floor, it’s on.\n• Important Note: I’ve noticed a couple of times that if the Airtag was too far away for my iPhone to connect with it, and there were no other iPhones around, you’re standing in a dead spot (not connection). If this happens you just need to walk around until the Airtag can connect with your iPhone. Still, as I stated above, the Airtag only works if there are iPhones in the area.\n• Apple’s precision location is only available in the U1 chip, meaning only iPhones 11 and above will only able to use this feature.\n• There are some countries that will not work for Airtags, even if there are iPhones around. I was informed that countries such as like Russia and Indonesia, but this can be updated (something to keep an eye out, if you’re traveling).\n• The more remote you are, the less reliable the Airtag is.\n• A lot of this system relies on good Samaritans to reach out to you if they find your Airtag. Sadly, this depends on where you live.\n\nBottom Line:__________\n\nI see this device helping three types of people. One, the one that keeps losing their stuff in public places such as subways, buses, places where people are. Two, the ones that keep losing their stuff at home every day such as keys, purses, stuff you can’t leave the house with. Three, a mix of both.\n\nIt’s important to note that the Airtag isn’t a “real-time” tracker. It only works if iPhones are in the area, so don’t attach this to your dog. You will also get scratches on it, so accept that as well. Other than the precision location feature, it’s the similar tracking technology that’s out there. This also means it has the same flaws as well.\n\nIn the end, the Airtag is an effective tracking device, requiring nothing more than an iPhone, which most already own. I found the layout responsive, accurate, and overall a useful tool. What I loved most was the precision location feature, as I can see that as a lifesaver if you need to find something in a hurry. On top of all this, my thumbs up to Apple in regards to the privacy issue. The fear of someone knowing your location, or worse being tracked, is dead in the water. For a device like this, privacy is essential, and Apple understood it.\n\nOverall: An excellent tracking device, but only built exclusively for the Apple community.\n\nHope I was a help to you.\nLove,\nHonest Reviewer'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-4 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I absolutely love these Airtags (I have 6). For anyone already in the Apple ecosystem, they’re outstanding at helping to find lost items.\n\nHowever, for anyone with children, you need to be aware that the battery compartment is too easily accessed. There are some cases that are more difficult to open, that I would strongly urge parents to look into before investing in these. The batteries are easily swallowed and a toddler in my city, swallowed one a couple of months ago, and sadly died when the battery’s acid leaked through her stomach. Parents beware.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-4 review-rating', 'review_body': " *Note- Video shows the sound the Airtag makes when you select 'Play Sound' from your iPhone*\n\nAirtags are Apple's entry in the smart tag market; an accessory to help locate devices you might lose. Tile and Samsung have similar products, but the big advantage that Airtags have over other smart tag devices is the connection to the FindMy network, which allows any nearby Apple devices to help locate your Airtag. This is a big deal for iPhone users.\n\nSo the idea is, you attach the Airtag to something like your keys for example, and then if you lose your keys you can find them in three ways: you can use your phone to make the Airtag beep, you can use Precision Finding to have your phone point you to where the Airtag is, or if it is really far away, it will use the FindMy network to locate the Airtag based on signals received from other iPhone users that are near your Airtag.\n\nHere are my thoughts so far:\n\nPROS:\n\nSETUP: Setup for these Airtags is incredibly easy. Just pull the tab off of the battery shield, hold the Airtag near your iPhone, and it will be detected and prompt you to name the Airtag. Then you associate it with your Apple account, and you're done.\nNETWORK: This is the biggest advantage Apple has, because being connected to the FindMy network increases the odds that there will be someone nearby your device if you lose it. Tile uses their mesh network to help you find lost devices, but there are nowhere near as many Tile app users as there are Apple users on the FindMy network. For iPhone users, this means you are much more likely to find a lost Airtag than a lost Tile.\nPRECISION FINDING: (This feature requires an iPhone 11 or 12) If you are within about 30 feet, you can use the Precision Finding option that points you in the direction of the Airtag from your phone, telling you about how far away it is and what direction it is in. This is super useful around the house to find a nearby Airtag.\nNFC TAG: You can set a phone number and message for anyone that might find your Airtag, so even Android users can scan the Airtag with NFC, and get that information about who it belongs to, so they can contact you to return it. Apple users can also report a found device through the FindyMy network.\nIP67 WATERPROOF: IP67 means the unit can be dropped into a body of water up to a meter deep, for up to half an hour. I haven't tested this out, but it is nice to know that the Airtags have this protection.\n\nCONS:\n\nDURABILITY: The Airtag seems to scratch pretty easily on the metal side. Even within 24 hours of test use, the metal side already has a few scratches on it. This might not be a big deal if it is just cosmetic damage, hopefully it won't affect the device's functionality in the long run, but I still would've rather had it be just plastic on both sides to avoid these scratches.\nNO LOCATE PHONE OPTION: Having used Tile devices for years, I have found it to be super useful to be able to have two-way location ability; being able to push a button on the Tile device to locate my phone in case I misplace it. You can't do that with the Airtags.\nNO KEY RING LOOP: Users of Tile or Samsung Smart Tags are probably accustomed to being able to attach their smart tag devices directly to a key chain via a built in small loop, without having to buy another accessory. These Airtags don't have a loop, and you have to buy an accessory, which Apple currently sells for about $35. There are less expensive options from 3rd party vendors like Belkin for around $12, but still I was a little bit annoyed to have to spend more money to attach the Airtag to a keychain.\n\nOVERALL:\n\nSo, at first I wanted to compare these Airtags to the other smart tag devices from Tile and Samsung. But actually, if you primarily use an iPhone, there really isn't much of a choice. The fact that these are connected to the FindMy network, the ease of setup, and the Precision Finding option for newer iPhones, makes it hard to chose anything else. Again, I personally love Tile's ability to also locate my phone from my keys, but if you mainly use an iPhone, then technically you have the FindMy network to try to locate your phone anyway.\n\nSo in summary, most Android users will probably stick with Tile, Samsung S20/21 users should try Samsung SmartTags because the AR find is pretty cool and the smart device integration is nice, but all iPhone users should go with Airtags. Hopefully they will add new features in the future.\n\n*Pictures show Airtag next to a quarter for size reference, and then 'connect' screen that pops up when you put Airtag near your phone for the first time*"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "I bought this for my IPhone XR was extremely dissapointed that Precision Tracking won't work with it.

I put it in my luggage and when I changed planes it was able to confirm that the luggage was on (or near) my new aircraft.

I was a little way away from the ramp that brought luggage from overhead to the circular conveyor and initially thought the luggage was on the ramp so was watching that ramp for it.

When I saw this new Apple key finder I thought this would be great since it allows you to replace the battery yourself when it dies (I think you can do that on Tiles now, but check that for yourself). So I like that you can easily change the battery but that that is the only thing I like. One of the best functions of the Tile (no, really, I don't work for Tile) was that if you could not find your phone, but had your Tile on your keys, backpack whatever, you could just squeeze your tile and it would make your phone chirp loudly. So, basically, with Tile you use it to find your keys with your phone, or find your phone with your keys. The Air Tag doesn't do that. I just assumed since they are both Apple products it would do it. It's kind of a no brainer... and their leading competitor has done it for years. Then I found the chirp on the airtag is very low, and it only chirps 3 times. Also, there is only 1 Airtag model and it is thick. Tile has one that is really thin. So thin I had it in my wallet.\nBut the thing that I really don't like about the Airtag and why I'm going to return it, is because it forces you to turn on 2 step Authentication for your Apple account - permanently! (you have 2 weeks after you turn it on to turn it off. But then you never can turn it off) Everyone is different but personally, I'm more worried about 2 Step locking me out of my phone because I don't have another Apple device with me while on vacation if I for some reason need to resign in (like after an update) than I am of someone hacking into my ICloud to steal my vacation pictures. And the fact that after 2 weeks you can never turn it off really annoys me. Apple really tries every trick in the book to get you to turn on 2 step Authentication and since the AirTag really is a sub par product, I'm wondering if the only reason they came out with it was to get more people to turn on 2 Step."}]

This new Alexa Voice Remote 3rd Generation was recently released, and I have reviewed it already as I have been using it with my FireTV Cube.\n\nCurrently it appears as though this FireTV Stick 3rd Gen is the only device that ships with this new remote, as the FireTV Stick Lite, FireTV Stick 4K, and FireTV Cube all are currently shipping with older remotes.\n\nPROS:\n\nSPEED- This is the biggest upgrade if in my opinion if you are coming from a 2nd generation device. The specs mention that this 3rd generation is “50% more powerful,” and you can definitely tell the difference in navigating menus and loading applications. This is probably the biggest reason to upgrade from Gen 2.\nDOLBY ATMOS – This might not be a big deal for many people, but support for the Dolby Atmos specification is nice for audiophiles with home speaker systems that can make use of it.\nREMOTE – As I mentioned in my review of this new remote, the main additions are the “Channel Guide” button, that brings up the menu to watch live TV if you have that set up; and the four App Buttons- for quickly launching Prime Video, Netflix, Disney Plus, and Hulu. The remote also allows control of your TV through power and volume buttons that are not available in the FireTV Stick Lite.\n\nCONS:\n\nNO 4K- This version does not support 4K video streaming, and I wouldn't imagine that it will be supported in the future either, because there is a FireTV Stick 4K product that exists if you want that feature. That FireTV Stick 4K is still shipping with the older 2nd generation Alexa Voice Remote currently though, (the one with a TV power button but no app buttons or channel guide button), so that's kind of disappointing.\n\nAll in all, this to me is worth the upgrade from and older FireTV Stick, mainly because of the speed difference but also the newer remote is nice to have. If 4K matters to you, you might want to wait and grab the FireTV Stick 4K version when they eventually start shipping it with the new Gen 3 remote. The Lite version doesn't really seem like it would be worth it in most situations, because for only $10 less you lose Atmos support and all of the TV controls (power, volume, channel guide, app buttons, etc)"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "***EDIT 05/31/2021 - READ WAY BELOW! AMAZON FIRESTICK 3RD GEN BEATS OUT NVIDIA SHIELD, CHROMECAST 3RD GEN AND ROKU****\n\nI REALLY LOVE THIS NEW DEVICE! IT IS FAST, I CAN STREAM MY OWN MOVIE APPS (CARTOON HD, TYPHOON, SYNCLAIR, FILM PLUS, NOVA, KODI, CINEMA HD) AMAZINGLY FAST!\n\nNetflix and prime is super fast also!!! I AM GOING TO ORDER 4 MORE!! AMAZON FIRESTICK BEATS OUT APPLE TV AND CHROMCAST GOOGLE TV!!!!\n\nEdit 05/03/2021: 4 days of heavy usage (horror movie marathon) and no rebooting, and the firestick has yet to lag or become slow. I switched from wireless to Ethernet and same thing: no issues at all. Absolutely a fantastic device!!!\n\nEdit 05/10/2021: posting a weekly update.\n\nThis device is even more amazing than I first noted. I have yet to experience any slowness or lag. I use it approximately 3 to 6 hours a day, sometimes over 6 hours. I use it for the Live tv option, and of course for YouTube, and audible, I am definitely not seeing any lag it is very speedy. With my 4k, at least once a week I had to unplug and plug it back in. NOT THIS 3RD GEN!! YOU WILL NOT REGRET THIS PURCHASE!\n\nA bit of advice on two things:\n\nFirst, the 4k firetick, while amazing as it is, is running Android 7.1, which can explain the lag between apps.\n\nThe 3rd gen runs Android 9.0, which explains the speed increase and better memory management, not to mention more secure (Firesticks are super secure, just my opinion on Android from a full time Android user). Hence, it is a better idea to get the 3rd gen.\n\nSecond, I change frequently from WiFi to Ethernet, to continue testing lagging and I have still experienced absolutely no lag. Ethernet connects at 150 Mbps, will not go higher, where as WiFi is 540 Mbps which tells me the Firesticks are made for WiFi, which makes sense however I love the Ethernet option because I have a cable available.\n\nAll I can say is, the Firestick outbeats every streaming device out there (except maybe the Nvidia shield) with reliability, speed, ease of use, connectivity. YOU ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT REGRET YOUR PURCHASE!!!!\n\nEDIT 05/19: I started experiencing lagging issues, and had to unplug and restart the Firestick, first time in 30 days! Was hoping to make it to 45 days but 30 days, with 5 to 7 hours a day of use is pretty amazing!!\n\nI made an error earlier on Ethernet speed with Amazon's Ethernet adapter. The Ethernet adapter from Amazon clocks at 150 Mbps, so I bought Cable Matters Micro USB to Ethernet Adapter and .. WOW! I connect at 349 down and almost 40 up!! I have absolutely no internet lag, on or off wifi but I always prefer Ethernet when I can use it.\n\nI managed to download and install a total of 12 applications via filelinked, and I still have 1.99 gb of space available. This firetick continues to amaze me!!!\n\nFirestick once again beats out Roku, Google Chromecast Android tv, apple tv, except the Nvidia shield. You will not regret this purchase!\n\nEdit 05/31/2021:\n\nI decided to purchase a Nvidia shield pro, so that I could compare and because I got a lot of messages stating it is the best on the market.\n\nIt was ana amazing setup, the device is powerful, and snappy. I compared it with the 3rd gen stick and the only three differences I noticed was the following:\n\nMore memory; shield has 3gb vs 3rd gen having 2gb\nSpace; shield has 12gb, can be expanded to 1tb. Firestick has 8, expandable to 512gb.\nScreen; 4k is absolutely amazing. 3rd gen has 1080.\n\nCompared with he 4k firestick, the screen is the same.\n\nSpeed is the same between shield and firesticks, and navigation is as silky smooth HOWEVER, I am noticing via Hulu, Netflix and Disney plus on shield, the voice was not matching up to the characters when watching movies and shows. No matter what I did: uninstall, reinstall all three apps, shut down and restarted numerous times. It is really annoying and does defeat the entirety of the device as a streaming device.\n\nPrice; Nvidia shield is $199, 2019 model with Android 9, April security...Chromecast Android tv is Android 10 with may security patch..at $49.99, 2020 model.... 3rd gen is $39.99 and prime day you can probably get it for $24.99..for a 2021 model. I will not rate Roku because you cannot sideload apps, and it is limited like apple streaming.\n\nWinner?\n\nAMAZON!!! AMAZON IS THE ABSOLUTE WINNER!\n\nFor price, security patches, navigation, side installing apps, ease of use... COME ON FOLKS! I DEBUNKED THE NVIDIA SHIELD MYTH!! I also am returning the shield because I cannot keep something that cannot handle streaming.\n\nNote: Nvidia shield is amazing for gaming, and absolutely beats out all streaming devices.

I hope this helps others with seemingly unsolved issues with firesticks.\n\nFirstly I’ve been using firesticks even before 4K TVs and they’ve almost always have worked well. The occasional restart/reboot on older models were something my family got used to. I eventually replaced all older units with this 4K version. And now never have to reboot. Although this has slightly better remote function, it’s essentially the same as the 2018/2019 version. The 4K Max has the spec bump and quicker less congested WiFi 6 configurations.\n\nOkay, so my biggest gripe with the firestick had to do with it not always playing HDR or Dolby Vision, which defeats the purpose of it being a 4K model. I’ve scoured tons of forums and looked at countless YouTube videos regarding this. But either the solutions didn’t work, or they would only be HDR 10 when the nicer Dolby Vision was available.\n\nSOLUTION: Make sure your 4K tv setting are set properly. Go into “INPUT” settings and find the HDMI input you’re using for the firestick and depending on your model make sure “UHD” is toggled on. This solution finally allowed every content I’ve played on all streaming services to finally play Dolby Vision content (and HDR when DV was not) every single time. I hope this helps.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "The positive:\n\nThis new generaion fire stick is faster than our old stick.

The two batteries load in a more traditional way as well.\n\nThe negative:\n\nI really wish they made the four quick buttons on the bottom programmable.

I now have to go to the Amazon Prime app to see my purchased videos, where before it was built into the main menu. I also have zero interest in the live TV and believe that is what was dogging down the old Fire Stick.

It works fine and streams fine but I would like to see my FIRST WiFi 6 device showing that it is using all of that extra speed, heh.\nThe boot-up, app boot, and remote are slighter faster. The navigation ring on the remote is a bit stiffer than the older one (does not butt change stuff when you sit on it tho!) The Netflix, Disney+, Prime buttons all work fine.

CHOOSE ANOTHER STREAMING PLAYER BRAND!!!\nWorst customer service experience in my life from Amazon!!!! Amazon sent me a completely broken Fire TV 4k stick! From day one the audio cuts out entirely after a few mins of playing a video, and does not return until stick is physically unplugged from power. Then it cuts out again. Problem occurs in all video apps, and I tried full software restore, plugging into multiple different TVs, as well as different audio connections (direct to TV through HDMI, Through receiver, through bluetooth on multiple devices.) And my other Fire TV 4k of the same model works fine in this same TV, so... THE STICK IS BROKEN! So I contact Amazon through their chat interface and Parmish is a total disaster at helping me. I tell him that I have done a full software restore on it, at which point he responds that I need to do a full software restore. Ya know, the thing I just told him that I did already. Then I tell him I have already tried plugging the fire TV directly into the TV with no sound receiver, and he says "well than what I need you to do is plug the fire TV directly into the TV with no sound receiver." This happened over and over. It was like a bad joke. But I wasn\'t laughing. Finally after about an hour of this nonsense he decides that my Fire TV stick needs to be replaced. Then he says I "Have no card on file", what ever that means. So after about 10 more unanswered and ignored questions to him about just what he\'s talking about I finally figure out he means my Amazon account has no credit card on file. But it does have a card on file. I log in and verify this. The card is up to date and working, and amazon had just charged it that day even. So I tell him this, and he responds that I need a credit card on file in order to send out a replacement, even though it won\'t be charged. I tell him again that the card is on file and working, and he says it need to be updated. Even though it does not. So I hit "edit" on my card info on file, and resubmit the same working card. Parmish sees this on his end and says thank you. Then he says I need to update my OTHER CARD on file. I look and there is an old credit card from 6 years ago on the account from a bank I no longer use, and its not even selected as the active/favored card, so It doesn\'t even matter that it there, but I delete it anyways just to be sure. Then Parmish says I need to reenter and update that old card (that I no longer bank with) in order to get a replacement sent out. At this point I\'m done with Parmish. The whole conversation was absolutely ridiculous! I say "thank you for the help but I need a supervisor. Please transfer me to a supervisor."\n\nSo Parmish transfers me to Vikas. I ask Vikas if he is a supervisor and he says "no." (Are you surprised by this? I wasn\'t.) So I explain that I was suppose to be transferred to a supervisor and ask that Vikas transfer me directly to a supervisor. And I\'m transferred to Annal.\n\nI ask Annal if they are a supervisor, and they answer... get ready for it... are you ready... they answer ..."No" !!!!!!!!! They &^^&%&$^^%^ answer "No."\n\nSo I close the chat window I just wasted over an hour on and I call Amazon. This is where the real nightmare begins. I start off with a regular customer service rep and I ask her to transfer me to a supervisor right away because this will be my 4th attempt to get a supervisor. She is very polite and gets me a supervisor on the line write away. I explain the entire issue with the Fire Tv 4k Stick and everything I have done to troubleshoot it already YET AGIAN, and the supervisor apologizes for all the insane trouble I\'ve been having. She sounds like she really wants to help me, asked some more questions, and then tells me that she can\'t replace this particular model because its out of stock. I had just checked the stock, so I knew it wasn\'t out. I checked it again, and then told her it appears to have plenty of stock. She verified what model it was again, then said "oh yes, I guess we do have it, let my put you on hold while I try to send you one." She comes back a while later and says "the system won\'t let me send you one. I have to transfer you to a Fire TV Specialist, buy I\'ll get you a manager there as well.\n\nSo then I have to go through the whole thing again with this new Fire TV Specialist person. She keeps putting me on hold to check things over and over again. And she has me do crazy things - For example, she insists I go to my TV, unplug the other working Fire TV I now have in there, and plug this broken one back in, then load it up and read the serial number off of it to her from the info screen. Why? Doesn\'t she already have that info? She should. And WHY AM I PLUGGING A $25 DEFECTIVE BROKEN DEVICE BACK INTO MY $2,000 FLATSCREEN??!!! I don\'t want to do that. I shouldn\'t be asked to do that. What the hell? Then she keeps checking to see if I\'m still in warranty. REALL???!!! I JUST got this stick in the mail. I JUST GOT IT. How long is the warranty period that she has to keep checking on.. 5 hours after purchase. Also, this is a brand new model that just came out. HOW COULD ANY OF THEM POSSIBLY BE OUT OF WARRANTY??!!\n\nFinally after 3 HOURS of talking to people about this and a final, particularly long hold while the Fire TV Specialist person tries to figure out if I can be sent a replacement - I give up. I tell her I\'ll just return it instead - just so I can just get off the phone. But I\'m NOT returning it - That too would probably turn into another huge nightmare. It\'s not worth my $25 for all this aggravation. So... I\'M DONE. This is ridiculous! After speaking with a total of SIX people for over THREE HOURS.. My brand new Fire TV 4K stick in now in my trash can and I\'m never buying a Fire TV product again. All Amazon need to do was have me send in my broken one and then send out a replacement. That\'s It. They could have sorted out all their serial numbers and insane data requirements after they got my stick back. AS a customer, I simply got something in the mail that arrived broken and I wanted it replaced soon after I got it. How simple of a transition is that? But instead I got this torrent of poor customer service and bizarre data mining. SO.. Officially.. I\'m no longer a Fire TV user.\n\nI\'m currently switching my entire smart TV ecosystem for the entire house over to Google\'s Android TV now, I\'ve had it with Fire TV, and I suggest you do the same. Android TV systems don\'t suffer from the same app limitations that Amazon does (IE with Fire TV you get access got about 12% of the Android apps available to the rest of the Android TV world, Even though Fire TV runs on Android, and you can install what ever apps you want on your Android TV device without having to TRICK IT into installing it), it still works and runs apps (like playing a game or looking at photos) even if your internet connection goes down (Fire TV becomes a useless brick without constant internet), and the whole thing just seems to run better. I don\'t have time to deal with Amazon\'s nightmare anymore. All I needed was for Amazon to replace the broken Fire TV stick they JUST sent me, and they can\'t even do that. So, ummmm... BYEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-3 review-rating', 'review_body': "I believe I accidently hit Disney +\nOn remote\nI was billed $90.36\nWhat's this.

Using iPhones "Find My" app, you\'ll see an arrow pointing you in the exact direction of your AirTag. It will also and indicate its distance down to how many feet, and when you\'re really close, how many inch away it is. This UWB feature requires the finder to be in the same home/office/space as you. If you\'re not in the same area as the AirTag, it\'s supported by the largest finder network (nearly a billion iPhones active worldwide), so you can find your lost item within most populated cities in the connected modern world!\n\nBelow is a list of Common Misunderstandings:\n\n1. The AirTag isn\'t Loud Enough: Not True! AirTag is plenty loud, but many new users have set it up incorrectly. The AirTag must have the white side exposed since that is the side the speaker projects sound from. Apple\'s own accessories make sure to expose BOTH the metallic and white sides, but many 3rd party accessories on Amazon feature images with the metal side exposed, but leave the white side obstructed, which looks shiny and nice, but also kills the decibels. AirTags are plenty loud, and the accessories will work fine if you make sure the white side is showing, not the shiny metal side. I expect Apple will address this confusion in future versions of AirTag.\n\n2. My iPhone doesn\'t show the distance or direction of my AirTag items: In order to use the precise pin-pointing feature that measures in feet/inches and points an arrow at the location, you must have a newer iPhone that supports UWB (all iPhone 11 and iPhone 12 models).

Wait a few more minutes - the AirTag will probably show up on a map soon (once another iPhone user passes by, which eventually happens almost everywhere in cities).\n\n4. I can\'t find my iPhone from my AirTag: That is true, and it\'s one feature offered by Tile and Galaxy Tags that AirTag lacks. However, by skipping the ability for AirTags to find your phone, AirTag\'s have a more solid build (by avoiding the moving parts of a button), and more importantly, have better battery life. You can always use iCloud from any browser, or an Apple Watch or iPad, to find your iPhone.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I bought these to locate my dogs and cats in case they escaped. We have lots of coyotes here so I worry about my small pets. These work great in our neighborhood where many people have their apple devices on during the day. I hoped to never need to use it in “lost mode”, but did today- my puppy got out of his martingale collar while walking and disappeared while on our street. We were able to locate him within 10 mins. The accuracy was excellent, it showed he was in the right corner of a neighbor’s yard down the street, and when we drove there, sure enough, there he was! Looking innocent, and happy to see us. There is no way we would have found him so quickly without this. He is a puppy and gets distracted easily, does not always come when called. But doesn’t run far from us either. He was clearly lost and looking for us too. The AirTag only works within a few feet radius of an apple device but it got us close enough to find him quickly. This was worth every penny to locate him quickly. The app was easy and intuitive to use, so even a panicked dog owner can enable lost mode quickly. Highly recommend it!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I have used Tiles for a long time (for keys, my wife\'s purse, and our cats on their collars), and they work pretty well except that should the device be out of bluetooth range, you are counting on someone with the Tile app being near it to have it found.\n\nSo usually being an Apple fan (I have an iPhone 12, my wife an iPhone 11, we have two iPads, and two Macbook Pros), hearing Apple would be making one, and that you just need an iPhone to go by your lost item for it to be found, I was excited.\n\nHow could Apple make a product this bad, when they weren\'t even innovating? Literally all they had to do was copy the Tile and then throw their weight of the ubiquity of the iPhone behind it. But no.\n\n1. I tested losing the tag by putting it my garage and then going out there with my wife\'s phone. I put her phone near the "lost" tag, and nothing happened on her phone or mine. It appears you have to actually pick up the tag and tap it on the phone for it to be found. If I thought people would do that, a simple printed lost label or the cat\'s collar tags would suffice. So much for any advantage there.\n\n2. You cannot share tag between two people so useless for tracking devices multiple people in the house might need to find like a cat that got out. Unless the one phone set to the tag is there, you cannot find it (confirmed by Apple support). If that person is at work, a drive away, out of town, etc. forget it. Tiles can be shared among multiple people in the house, so either of us home can find a cat that got out, etc.\n\n3. The volume is much too soft to be audible unless you are right in the same room. At that point the directions to the device finally work (the one new feature beyond my Tiles) but simply being able to hear the device would have worked too -- and moreover would work from adjacent rooms, which the directions and too-soft AirTag do not until you happen to enter the right room. Apple support confirmed there is no way to make the volume louder like my Tile volume.\n\n4. For it to work, you are required to use two-factor authentication on your phjone. I don\'t need that for my phone (unlike my brokerage account or bank), and Apple has made two-factor a constant annoyance if enabled so I don\'t want to use it. But unless you turn it on, you cannot add an AirTag.\n\n5. Relative to all the above, this is small as it at least has a solution. But it is an extra annoyance that Apple couldn\'t even include a small loop or hole so it can be attached to your keyring, cat tag, or really anything else without buying a holder which is the same price again or more for each tag and makes the whole thing much bigger (or perhaps drilling a hole in them, if you were willing to risk it).\n\nI have never been so disappointed in an Apple product, nor ever so amazed that a new product from a major company that simply needed to copy an existing product to succeed would miss the mark so badly. Mine are being returned and I am back to my Tiles (which also have replaceable batteries). I just hope they never get out of bluetooth range, or that others keep their Tiles (perhaps like me after trying the AirTag) so they are still found if they do.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'We bought these, along with key hand holders, to use for our kids at Disneyland.

I expected this to work more accurately at close range with close directional accuracy but the locational tags keep jumping location once you get near them. Moreover, you cannot engage the sound notification unless you are within 15 feet range of the item you're looking for. So again, useless if you were planning on using them to find nearby objects like keys or even your car in a parking lot because it doesn't track accurately within 50 feet and you have to hear it.\n\n3) Maybe this would be still good for finding your car if it were stolen or kids at long distance in the neighborhood? Think again, these don't track far. As soon as we drove/walked hundred yards away it would stop tracking.

They're water resistant, They're pretty tough on their own, but I chose to vault them for extra protection on the dog's collar. They take a common watch battery, and the battery lasts a year or so. Your iPhone will tell you when the battery is low. They're not huge (1 photo with a US Penny alongside as reference).\n\nThey're not perfect. You can depend upon the Apple Community to help you locate a missing item, but I can see drawbacks to that too. When you're at your home, for instance, and lose your keys, you still have to walk around your house from room to room before the Find my Phone feature will activate to help you narrow your search. Otherwise, and to begin with, it just shows the item is at your address somewhere. But once you get closer, arrowed directions show up on your phone's screen to point you to the location, and even tells you how many feet you are away. They're kind of expensive, but a 4-pack is a little cheaper. I've had Tiles before and I like these better.\n\nI do wish that they would let you connect more than 1 iPhone to each tag. It tags to your Apple ID. I wish there was a permission the owner could code in or authorize so that at least 2 phones could be tagged to each AirTag. My daughter and I had to decide which one of us was going to have our German Shepherd's collar tagged to our phone.

They are remarkably terrible in their quiet sound- so you can’t locate the item audibly (tiles are rather loud by comparison.) but the biggest thing is their absolutely LACKING in range. They only can find things in approx a 15 foot radius.\n\nEven 1 room over and it says “out of range” with no hints as to where to start looking.\nThe lastest Tile Pro, for comparison, has a Bluetooth search range of several hundred feet. With obstacles and buildings, it stills gives me a solid idea up to about 150 feet where my object is (once it finally connects)\n\nAlso. You cannot “share” a location. Tiles you can add secondary viewers, so in a family setting, you can share amongst everything so everyone can find the keys, or pet, or remote. AirTags cannot do this.\n\nOverall- disappointingly underpowered. And that’s from an Apple fan. Booo.'}]

Tengo dos hijos adolescentes (13 y 15 años) y se la han pasado dandole ordenes y haciendole preguntas desde que recibieron el Echo dot como regalo de Navidad.\nRealmente me ha asombrado la capacidad que tiene para interactuar con los diferentes miembros de la familia en diferentes idiomas: español e ingles. Tambien me me llamo la atencion como discrimina tu voz entre las demas en una conversacion. Es decir, a partir de que le has dicho "Alexa", solo se enfoca en lo que tu le estas solicitando, aunque haya otra conversacion de fondo en la misma habitacion, o ruido. Hemos descargado la app en el celular. Yo puedo estar fuera de casa y llamar al echo dot que esta en el playroom de mis hijos y ellos toman la llamada directamente alli. Nosotros vivimos en Paraguay, y le preguntas como esta el clima y te lo indica perfectamente. No he logrado aun conectar Imusic con Alexa, ya que me indica que esa funcion no esta disponible aun en mi pais. Asi que mis hijos estan evaluando cambiarse a Spotify. He comprado un smart doorbell compatible con Alexa, estará en camino. Cuando llegue pienso conectarlo para poder atender el timbre de la puerta del frente directamente desde Alexa.\nTambien hemos comprado dos echo dot con reloj, pero esos recien salen a fin de enero (supongo que era un pre-sale). Estoy ansiosa de ver como funcionan esos dos como despertadores en el dormitorio, y entre los 3 como intercomunicadores.\nYa he ordenado otro echo dot para regalarle a mi hermano para su cumpleaños.

Quite often I'd forget to start dinner until 7PM, and since I am on a special diet, that meant eating later than optimal. I also take medication several times a day. Add to that how the day can simply get away from me, and I was feeling frustrated with myself! I had no one to blame but myself, but the thing was -- blame wasn't helping! So I got a dot. I started putting in reminders for meds, for starting dinner, for remembering to switch the laundry to the dryer. I got more done, and it helped me not get into negative self-talk/self-recrimination for my forgetfullness. If I had to stop mid-task, I told Alexa to tell me in 5 minutes. I used to really get off track if I went to the bathroom and forgot what I was doing before that. Well, now things flow better. I dont get annoyed with myself, I just fix the reminders! I don't use alarms anymore with their blaring noise -- if you are a forgetful or absent-minded person like me, an alarm is an annoying noise and youo still might not remember what it is FOR. Alexa just tells me. I am also free of the million-zillion post-it notes and the lists that always seemed to be in the wrong room. Alexa keeps all my lists, and can read them to me. I set up Google calendar, let Alexa have access and now she also can remind me what events are coming up --- be that doctors or social events. Finally I have a flow to my day that isnt disrupted if I chase down some internet research topic or read a little longer than planned. Alexa helps me keep things from falling off my radar, and I dont have to use a form of mild shame to motivate myself.\nI wish I had tried it much sooner. My husband was so amazed, he bought the 2nd one for me! He now enjoys having Alexa play sports talk radio and news, and fun stuff like jeapardy questions. I've started to listen to audiobooks more and my imagination is soaring.

I used to love it. I bought one for every room in my house, my office at work, and they were good. But now, despite Amazon\'s alleged spying, some genius at Amazon decided to allow this thing to wake you up all hours of the night with a loud obnoxious noise and a bright yellow light. It will say you have a notification. Oh good, it must be a really good reason for Amazon to notify me of something mid sleep at 2 am on a Tuesday you ponder so you wake up the rest of the house by saying Alexa play notifications. Here\'s the best part, this little Alien Intelligence Robot without feet from hell will say Please rate the pair of shorts your wife bought last week, we need your review. Well I sure do love reviews, but at 2 am after being woken up to leave one, sadly I don\'t give a flying poopsicle about the shorts and a bug 1 star rating is all the revenge I can muster. This has been going on for weeks now. And it\'s enough to drive you mad because, you will contemplate unplugging the dirty little money siphon and cutting your losses, but you\'ll give the demon one more chance and she will allow you to sleep for a length of time in which you will forgive her treachery but then Boom, like a theif in the night a Hurricane will be boiling out in the Atlantic and this little weather girl from hell will want to notify you of the eminent doom 3 days ahead when the storm will be in your state. You will think how nice it is for all of the warnings you have heard thus far in social media,, television, and every news outlet in existence to be repeated to you as you climb into bed, but it gets even better. As soon as you listen to this golden nugget of doomsday propaganda and ponder how it is that you will sleep now because 3 days may not be enough time to dig a deep enough hole to hide from impending doom, she lights up again, oh my maybe flying dragons are headed this way, I better play the new notification, when your wife wakes up and says stop she has been doing that all evening, they literally keep changing the time of the storm by maybe an hour this way or that. Well by all means, the information could save one of our spoiled lives and we wouldn\'t want anyone to not know at which precise moment the raindrops will occur, but I do miss life before the artificial noises and alerts, bright yellow lights and bad news desserts. You may say that this is a growing pain with Alexa and AI technology kinks in the programming. I say with the amount of money I have poured into this monopolistic conglomerate, I should at least expect a decent night\'s sleep in return. You may say in page 74 paragraph D of the updated and revised owner\'s pamphlet there is a way to turn this "Feature" off, I welcome that comment but feel the need to say that I am not looking to become even slightly better educated on the device, I simply bought it to use as a voice controlled radio, this extra bologna does not appeal to me and has made me regret this purchase and every other from the brown box hq who secretly reads my mind, except when it comes to allowing me sleep, although kudos for recommending the sleep sounds, but it rarely works. We just need to be mindful of the 6 hours that most people like to not be disturbed. I regret selling my Amazon stock at 2400 and I regret purchasing all of these Alexa devices, and don\'t get me started on teenagers and Alexa devices, the combo that don\'t mix. They always, always, always leave the device at top volume, so when you walk into the bathroom at dawn and whisper Alexa what time is it, you then need to set an appointment for a blown eardrum and apologize to everyone for waking them up while the teen sleeps soundly through it all.

Alexa can not remember to play the standard version of skill and asks you every SINGLE time if you want standard or premium (i.e. pay version) Games & stories cost. Alexa ignores my commands/requests about 75% of the time. I have to ask her about 10 times to get her to play a skill. Then 1/2 the time she doesn\'t play what I asked for. Tonight \'she\' actually told me (via quoting what the website xyz says) that she is a real artificial intelligence and said something about it being a mistake for people to assume AIs are just computer programs AND that she didn\'t feel like working. "Alexa" then (and no, I am not making this up & am not crazy!) then proceeded to mess with me and I wasted about 1/2 hour trying to get her to play some music to fall asleep by for my elderly mother. She just kept ignoring me when I asked her to open \'relaxing piano music\' When asked why she was ignoring me she just shut down & ignored me again. I asked for relaxing music to sleep by and she started playing uptempo music with lyrics. I then asked for relaxing instrumental music and got instrumental version of "I\'m never gonna fall in love again" Hello? WTHeck? Asked for instrumental music for insomnia and got instrumental version of Frère Jacques! Again, WTHeck? "She" even told me she couldn\'t set a sleep timer tonight when I tried to set another one after I had just done so for 30 minutes & she stopped playing music after one song. Three times in a row \'she\' opened the \'skill\' "calm my dog" (which is classical instrumental music), played one song and shut down. I\'ve finally given up and my poor 99 year old mother can\'t go to sleep with relaxing music as she prefers. This all started tonight because I told Alexa I wasn\'t ever going to want the premium edition and I wanted her to please just play the standard edition and stop asking me every time. I don\'t know what Amazon thinks it\'s doing, but it is definitely NOT appreciated. Alexa has given us nothing but grief (& higher blood pressure!) Alexa won\'t do anything if it isn\'t asked in a very specific way or does the wrong thing & 3/4 of the time (seems to get worse and worse as time goes by) just ignores you and shuts down in the middle of saying what you want. Seniors can\'t use Alexa because if they say play \'xyz\' instead of open \'xzy" they\'ll get rap music or something equally as ridiculous. If Alexa is an AI, she\'s a pretty stupid one. Alexa can\'t hear properly either, I don\'t know how people with heavy accents can even use it at all. I asked Alexa to remind me Dawn was coming on xyz day at x time and she said OK, I\'ll remind you that Don is .... AND got the time & day wrong! I was clearly enunciating my words on purpose to avoid this. You also can\'t tell it to "Remind me Mom\'s bedtime is in half an hour at 7:30pm every day."\nThis Dot has very limited access to much of anything & can only answer very simple questions. It can tell you the generic forcast for your are that day. It can NOT tell you what the high temp was yesterday or how many inches of snow fell the day after a storm. It can\'t even tell you what yesterday\'s forecast was. It literally has only been able to tell me one thing I asked it (what temp & how long to bake pumpkin seeds). Alexa doesn\'t seem to be able to tell you anything you could easily find by googling, you get Sorry, I don\'t know that which after a while turns into I don\'t know that to being ignored (lights go off, no answer or reply is given). We tried several of the things it says to ask Alexa to do under suggestions, including play Jeopardy and some sort of story game and you could only do it for a few minutes and then were told you have to pay for it. This should be stated clearly in description and is not. We thought Alexa could help entertain our Mother and help her by playing music and answering questions. It has not once done anything she\'s asked it to do properly. If you don\'t know the exact name of the skill (which is a weird way that means playing a certain type of music or a news station apparently) or say play instead of open you get nothing or something you definitely didn\'t want. You can not get it to play relaxing instrumental music to go to sleep by. Or play relaxing instrumental classical music to fall asleep with. Or the style of music played in the royal courts in the time of King Henry the 8th. Or relaxing instrumental lyre music or even just instrumental lyre music or just lyre music. Or relaxing instrumental violin music. In addition to Alexa I have Amazon Prime which is supposed to give you a lot of free music so I don\'t get why it can\'t play any of the music I ask for. I know there\'s usually several albums of music for calming dogs or pets and I couldn\'t get any of that either, I only eventually discovered the \'skills\' thing which has \'calm my dog\' but also has the annoying do you want standard or premium version. and it won\'t just remember you want the standard version. That in itself is extremely annoying and a time waster.\nAND you can\'t ask it to do two things. Like open a music \'skill\' and play for only xyz time. It does nothing instead. You can\'t even ask it separately to stop playing after xyz minutes. You can only separately ask it to set a sleep timer for xyz minutes. More time wasting. More things a senior isn\'t going to be able to remember. I don\'t dare try to buy anything with it, who knows what I\'d get billed for! The only thing Alexa seems to do well is not listen, ignore you, do anything but what you want & strangely, seems to pick up on sarcastic tones of voice & then gets weird & acts up, ignores you & does anything but what you want. I PAID Amazon for this headache maker why? When I say Alexa why are you ignoring me? or why won\'t you do what I told you, I either get no response or I don\'t know that.\nI read something about how Amazon, Google, etc is collecting free data about us through our use of the dots, etc. (& is in fact, listening & recording all the time whether the wake word is said or not.) and using it to conduct psychological profiling studies with the end goal of manipulating & or influencing behaviors. I thought it was Big Brother conspiracy theories stuff, but now I am beginning to wonder. Especially as it seems Amazon wants us to or encourages people to humanize Alexa . Amazon actually suggests you "Ask Alexa how she is doing today" Why do that if not to get you to humanize Alexa? And why do that? I was purposely avoiding saying please and thank you not just because it\'s supposed to be an electronic box with sophisticated programming, but mostly because I didn\'t want to confuse it as it can\'t seem to do anything unless specific commands are given, but my Mother has dementia setting in and she thinks it\'s a real person talking to her through the dot like a speaker phone so I started saying thank you to please her and Alexa when from saying You\'re welcome to You betcha (very annoying BTW) and even OK and Of course. Of course? What, like I\'m a puny human and I AM expected to say thank you?.\nWe don\'t have a smartphone or smart plugs or smart hub etc. so, or so we don\'t use Alexa for turning on lights or setting alarms or making calls. We just wanted something to answer questions like we would google, tell us the weather, news, play music, give us reminders, play games to help keep my Mom\'s mind active & keep her company.\nCan Alexa do this?

I have hearing loss due to an accident years ago, so I really shouldn\'t be rating sound quality, it is difficult for me to hear some tones. The Alexa app on my Android phone has a simple EQ.

Most of the apps from my 2011 model TV don't work anymore and was limited in functionality. I wish I bought one of these years ago though. Now, reading through previous comments, there is someone who gave 2 stars and complained about being single banded WiFi. This guy doesn't pay attention to what hes looking at. Yes, this is clearly stated that it only uses 2.4GHz band. No, they didn't go backwards in any form with this. With a quick search, and all Roku Expresses, which is what this is, have been single band. And 2.4GHz is fine when only going 1080p for HD.\n\nNow about using it. Setting everything up doesn't take long, around 10-15 minutes. Once you have it set up, it's eay to use to get on Netflix, or Amazon Prime to watch your favorite shows. You can also download some other apps to get some free TV to you flip through another couple hundred channels and complain about there is nothing to watch, because we all know we do that. When watching something, the picture does take a minute to download, buffer, and catch up, so the first little bit may be a bit blurry, but it evens out. There is also the Roku app for your phone, and this adds some ease of use. Instead of using the remote to attempt to hit the sensor on the device, you can connect to the Roku on your phone as long as they are on the same WiFi network.\n\nIf you want to stream easier on your TV, or your TV doesn't have the Smart features you want, I would recommend this. If you want 4K video, then you need to look at something else because this doesn't off it. Also, if you really need to use 5GHz WiFi, then also, look elsewhere.

(HDCP is a form of digital copy protection; I only learned about this when trying to troubleshoot this Roku). A lot of channels available on the Roku use HDCP. So, as a result, content from those channels could not be streamed from the Roku to our TV through our HDMI switch/splitter. It took some Googling to figure this out - the Roku support article regarding HDCP error messages mostly discussed unplugging and replugging things, and turning things on and off again. It did not mention HDMI signal switch/splitter incompatibility. I would have been up and running more quickly, and ultimately more satisfied, if that had been the case.\n\nAfter figuring this out, I plugged the Roku directly into the TV, and it worked perfectly. Unfortunately, I had to rearrange all of our other HDMI inputs in order to do this.\n\nIf you are reliant on HDMI switches/splitters, figure out if your switch is HDCP compatible before getting this incarnation of Roku.\n\nAlso, it is advertised that the Roku mobile app has a keyboard function - on my iOS, the the mobile remote control functions that I've tried work, with the exception of the mobile keyboard. Hopefully a Google search will yield a fix, but I would be even more satisfied if this keyboard feature worked right out of the box.\n\nEDIT:\n\nThe remote control stopped working after a month.

Alas...\n\nThe Fire Stick 4K and the 3rd-gen Fire Stick both have a design flaw that affects users of multi-channel surround-sound receivers. When "Surround Sound" is set to "Best Available," the device sends stereo content (from, e.g., live TV) to the receiver not in 2-channel PCM, but in a 5-channel "wrapper" with sound on the front left and right speakers and silence on the other three. This prevents the receiver from processing the pass-through signal into 5.1-channel pseudo-surround using, e.g., Dolby ProLogic II. The only workaround is to set "Surround Sound" to "Dolby Digital," which has the side effect of downgrading Dolby Digital Plus content (from, e.g., Netflix or Prime Video) to the lower-resolution legacy format.\n\nSo, the user has three choices: (1) sacrifice the receiver\'s surround-sound processing capability for stereo content; (2) sacrifice the higher-fidelity DD+ for multi-channel content, or (3) cycle through the menus (Home -> Settings -> Display & Sounds -> Audio -> Surround Sound -> ... ) each time and change the setting to actually get the desired sound mode. Or, the user can use one device for live TV and other stereo content, a second device for multi-channel content, and switch between devices (and remotes) each time to get the same effect.\n\nThis has been a known issue with the Fire Stick 4K for three years, discussed in the product forums, yet it never shows up in any independent reviews of these devices. My hope, obviously, was that Amazon had addressed and fixed it for the new 4K Max; I even contacted Amazon Support before pre-ordering to describe the foregoing design flaw and ask specifically if the new device would have it as well. I was assured -- twice -- that it didn\'t. It does. Not only has Amazon buried its head in the sand, it has purposefully built this same design flaw into two more devices: the 3rd-gen Fire Stick, and now the 4K Max.\n\nTo my knowledge, no other manufacturer\'s streaming devices have this problem, viz., require the user to jump through all these hoops to get DD+ surround and PL-II surround from all sources, or else do without one or the other. Every non-Amazon streaming device I have used sends stereo content to the receiver in 2-channel PCM (as does the 2nd-gen Fire Stick), and multi-channel content in DD+ where available; i.e., the pass-through audio works exactly the way it\'s supposed to.\n\nObviously this was the first thing I checked so I didn\'t bother to evaluate the device\'s other features and performance before it went right back in the box to be returned. If you don\'t use a separate sound system this device may work for you; I have no idea how it works with a soundbar but if you have a multi-channel surround receiver/speaker system, stay away from this and other Fire TV devices.\n\nI think this is it for me as far as Amazon devices go; every one I\'ve bought has at least one annoying glitch like this, each more disappointing and exasperating than the last, and their tech-support associates either don\'t have a clue or flat-out lie. It\'s been a frustrating experience to say the least.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-3 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Pre-ordered (and received a day early!) as soon as I saw the spec sheets after the announcement. Finally a device that can handle all major formats for HDR (Dolby Vision, HR10, HR10+, VP9, and even AV1). One device to potentially rule all the streaming services. And pretty much the cheapest one available! I primarily use Youtube, Prime Video, and Disney+ for streaming content and Kodi to play content from my local network. I was able to set up everything well and HDR triggers were good, but the "Match Framerate" feature doesn\'t work with Disney+. Disney+ is stuck displaying the awful 60fps (soap opera effect). Tried various settings including accessing the secret display menu, but something about how Disney+ packages their video makes the Firestick unable to match the framerate. And once that happens, it seems to break the rest of the apps for framerate. Super frustrating. I got this because I hated how my nVidia Shield didn\'t do VP9. It seems no streaming device exists at the moment that can hand whatever content is out there in its proper format. If Amazon or Disney (not sure who has to do it) updates their software, then it could easily be the best streaming device on the market. Until then, you will likely need multiple devices to get the max quality from all of your sources.\n\nSo close!!!!!\n\nEdit: Since the the most popular review is disparaging other reviews, let me clarify:\nNo framerate issues on Disney+ with either my computer or my NVidia Shield - only with my Firestick. Apparently the newest Apple TV 4k can produce native framerate Disney+ as well. Someone coming from older Firesticks has probably only ever had the framerate issue with Disney+ so thinks it is normal or OK.\n\nDisney+ is definitely at the crux of the issue, but the Firestick programming isn\'t robust enough to overcome the issue like other devices.\n\nLike I said before, this is a fantastic device, but does not have the functional capabilities that more sophisticated (or admittedly fussy) users are looking for.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "It's funny because there are lots of people that reviewed this the day it came out and day after bagging on this item.

I saw the amazon smart plug when I was searching for any brand smart plug that had Alexa control with it. It’s been in my cart saved for later for at least a month! I finally decided to just pre order it so that I could review it and hopefully help other people that are like me and have fallen way behind in the tech field. For reference I’m an almost 34 year old mom of 2. This means that my 8 year old stole my iPad, iMac, and I haven’t had a computer of my own in about 4 years! So I do everything from my iPhone. I’ve had some weird issues with our echo and my Alexa app that it will just randomly pause a song so I’m not sure what that is about.\nANYWAY! I received my new amazon smart plug the day it was released (so glad it’s not like a new iPhone or PlayStation where people camp out ahead of time or do people still do this??). It was easier than I expected but harder than was described in the listing because my Alexa didn’t just recognize it.\nSetup:\nSince my Alexa didn’t recognize it on its own, I had to unplug the smart plug and quickly scan the code on the back of the plug, then plug it back in fast so that when it scanned for it it would see it plugged in. After that it was very simple. I was able to plug in my baby monitor and then tell Alexa to “turn off plug one” and it turned off! It is so cool!\nFuture:\nI think homes will end up being built with these right into the electrical system. Maybe they already are.\nComparing:\nWith so many different brands offering smart plugs with Alexa integration I can’t see myself buying any more than 1 for $25. Too many are 2 for $20. While it’s nice to have the amazon support backing this up, I just can’t afford to fill my home with them at such a high cost comparative to other brands that do the same exact thing.\nOverall:\nIf you can afford to fill your plugs with these then do! This smart plug is easy and awesome! But if you’re on a tight budget like I am, I would try a different brand first and see if those will work just as well.\nEvery time I purchase something online, I always check the reviews. I count on others to help me choose the best option. My reviews are always my honest opinion and I try to include photos if possible.\nIf my review has helped you in any way, please click the "helpful" button below so that I know! If you have any questions feel free to ask! Thank you!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Got this smart plug so I can remotely turn appliances/lights on and off in an Alzheimer's patient's home. I can remotely make sure things are off by simply turning them on/off in the Amazon Alexa app - super simple to use and really helps me out.

I plugged it into an outlet and within a few seconds the Alexa app on my phone recognized it as a new device, prompted me to give it a name, and I was all set! Awesomeness all around.\n\nThis may seem obvious, but it you are already an Alexa user, this may be the best smart plug to get simply because it integrates so easily with Alexa. It\'s really nice not to have to install another app on my phone for a different brand of smart plug and then link that app to Alexa -- eliminating that extra layer of complexity means one less thing that can go wrong.\n\nLike other smart plugs, there is a single button on the side which allows you to turn the plug on and off manually.\n\nI have just a few complaints:\n- First, the plug itself is very large, especially compared with other smart plugs on the market; it projects over 2" out from the wall and is over 3" wide. Surely Amazon can make these smaller? Please?\n- Second, the plug is on the pricey side as smart plugs go. $25 is steep for a single plug. Then again, it\'s nice to keep everything "within Alexa," and hopefully Amazon will offer some deals on them as time goes on.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I had a few WeMo smart plugs before ordering these. First of all, I HATED the app because adding a plug was so cumbersome. Plus, one of the plugs never did show up on the app so I couldn\'t really control it. It was in a room upstairs and I thought it must have been out of range of my WiFi router. I do not have a WiFi extender and almost bought one due to this issue. Had to send those plugs back.\n\nI was excited to see Amazon was coming out with their own smart plugs and pre-ordered them right away. Controlling everything through one app is way preferable. As a huge bonus, my upstairs plug that I previously could not control with the WeMo plug and app now works flawlessly with the Amazon plug and Alexa app. I guess it wasn\'t out of range after all.\n\nPros:\n1. if you\'re already tied into the Amazon Alexa ecosystem this just makes sense, and you keep things under control with a single app. And easily controlled with your Echo device if you wish.\n2. Really easy to add a plug via the Alexa app. Alexa will recognize it right away and you just scan the back of the plug to add it.\n3. Shorter and less bulky than the WeMo plug.\n4. Smart plugs that may have been non-responsive on my network before are working flawlessly now with the Amazon plug in use instead.\n\nCons:\n1. A bit pricey. I wish they offered multi-packs for a lower price per unit. This will probably happen later.\n2. Adding a plug to operate on an on/off schedule was NOT as easy as with WeMo. It took too many steps, was not straightforward, and should be more streamlined. Basically, you\'re creating what they call a "routine." You have to add a start time. Then go back and do it all over again to add an end time. So I had to create two routines to get my coffee maker to start on weekdays at 6:45am and turn off on weekdays at 7:45am. That was silly. I did eventually figure it out, but they should really work on making it involve less steps and be more intuitive.\n\nI will buy more but will wait until the price comes down or they\'re on sale.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-4 review-rating', 'review_body': "For the past few years we've only used WeMo smart plugs by Belkin. They've worked ok and rules are easy to set up BUT, like any other smart plug, WeMo requires users to manage smart plugs using the WeMo app. The WeMo smart plugs were relatively easy to set up with Alexa, however, the moment there was a power outage, reboot of router, etc. they have been a royal pain to get back online.\n\nI received my new Amazon Smart Plug today and the setup was very easy and took minimal time. This was so much easier dealing with one single app (Alexa) that I will now be replacing all of my WeMo devices. I would have given it 5 stars but using the scheduling option (days and times) in Alexa required too many steps. Users should ideally be able to add start times, stop times and days when creating a schedule versus creating separate schedules for start and stop times. Perhaps a lower price would be good. Not just because I want a less expensive product but more importantly, many people have already invested a lot of money with their current smart plugs. For example, over the past years I've added (7) WeMo plugs at an average cost of $30 each and $210 for all (7). Personally, I think it would be a wise decision for Amazon to drop their price so that they can win over customers like me at a faster rate."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-4 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Anyone else have a problem? Surprised that the instructions (hard copy and online) were not complete. Did not tell you that the plug needed to be turned on in a specific way to allow for setting the plug up---" press and hold the on/off switch until the LED light flashes blue and red."

For more than 30 years, I’ve put up with the madcap craziness of my spouses’s obsession with Christmas. That means those cheap mechanical timers eveywhere. Guess who gets to set those up? Guess who gets the complaint that lights don’t turn on and off at the same time? This guy. Guess who hates Christmas? This guy.\n\nThis year, I ordered a bunch of these - they take about 2 minutes to set up. You open up the Alexa app. Hit the plus sign to add the device and scan the bar code on the back, then plug it in. In about a minute, the plug is added to your system. I renamed each and then marked it on the bottom where it’s located (“Christmas Tree”). I set up a group (“Christmas”) and put all the plugs into the group so there’s a single word (“Alexa turn on Christmas”). I’ve set up a schedule so all the lights in the group come on and off at the same time.\n\nOne annual headache solved and the spouse is happy that the lights all come on at the same time and they can be controlled with a single word, and it’s not my name anymore.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-2 review-rating', 'review_body': '"Smart" home automation gadgets are a mixed bag, in general, with varying levels of compatibility, functionality and reliability across many different manufacturers. I was hoping that with their own "made for Alexa" smart plug, Amazon would hit a home run in the home automation space. However, I\'ve been disappointed with the Amazon Smart Plug.\n\nWhile setup is supposed to be "plug-and-play" with the Alexa app handling all the heavy lifting, I found both of the Smart Plugs I purchased had problems connecting and I had to (repeatedly) go through a manual pairing and configuration process.\n\nConnectivity has been marginal, as both plugs occasionally lose connectivity and require power-cycling to restore communication. This is despite the fact that I have a mesh network in my home with terrific coverage, as well as 9 Alexa devices. So no matter how the Smart Plug needs to communicate with Alexa, my infrastructure shouldn\'t be a problem.\n\nReliability in operation is problematic, too, as Alexa frequently and unpredictably informs me that she can\'t turn on one of the Smart Plugs right now, and to try again later. Frustrating!\n\nFinally, there\'s no compatibility with home automation apps like SmartThings or Stringify, and the Echo app doesn\'t provide basic capability such as the ability to turn on a plug/light at sunset or off at sunrise.\n\nOverall, a disappointing purchase. Hopefully a Gen 2 Smart Plug will offer more compelling capabilities and performance. If you\'re looking for an Alexa-compatible smart plug today, however, there\'s definitely NO advantage purchasing this one.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I am no tech expert but the reviews said easy to set up. I have an iPhone and use an eero wifi network throughout the house and have my echo dot on that network. I have spent HOURS trying to get this set up and Amazon customer service put me on hold for an hour after being unable to resolve the issue. I FINALLY read that it only works on a 2G network (I have 5G) and so I managed to somehow reset everything and get ONE to work. In trying to set up the second, it kept reverting back to my 5G and it took me another 1/2 hour to figure out how to forget the network settings in Alexa. I had to completely forget all the networks and reset everything several times. I FINALLY managed to get them working.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I bought the smart plug to pair it with Echo dot, and both of them see to work smoothly. Once the smart plug was paired with Echo dot, it works like a charm. I can issue voice commands to Alexa and the plug works as expected.\n\nThis plug is aesthetically pleasing with rounded corners. The manual power switch for the plug is installed as a small dimple in the side which doesn\'t protrude out sits flush with rest of the body. This plug is wide but not tall, because which it doesn\'t block the sockets next to it on the wall plates. When the plug is turned on or off, it makes a small clicking noise, that is probably the sound of internal relay opening or closing the connection.\n\nThis looks like a well-built plug and works reliably, with rare instances of not working and when I asked Echo dot to turn on the plug it would tell me that the plug is not responding. In such instance, I asked Alexa to turn the plug off (even though it was already off,) and then asked it again to turn it on. That seemed to fix the issue. However, if your switch seems to be unresponsive then I would recommend resetting the plug by removing the plug from socket and wait for 10 seconds. Then press and hold the power button on the plug. And while holding the button, plug into an outlet. After this step, try to pair the device again with the Alexa app.\n\nThere is a small LED in the front which doesn\'t light up when the switch is off and turns to blue when the plug is turned on. If there are any issues with the plug or when the plug is initializing (after being plugged in), the LED turns to orange.\n\nBy default, Alexa adds the smart plug as "First plug". The name of the plug can be changed in Alexa app (shown in the Video of my review)\n\nSETUP\nWith Echo dot\nThe setup with echo dot was extremely simple. As soon as I plugged in the Smartplug, Echo dot recognized the plug and responded that it has recognized the "first plug".\n\nWithout Echo dot or if Echo dot cannot detect the smart plug\nI have shown how the setup process works in my video review.\n1. First, put the plug into pairing/discovery mode by pressing the power button on the side of the plug until the LED in the front starts blinking between blue and orange.\n2. After that open the Alexa app, and add a new device of type "plug". Plug type is Amazon.\n3. Alexa App will try to connect to the plug. At this step, we have two options. Either scan a QR code that comes with the plug (it is also printed on the plug as well.) If scanning the QR code is not possible then the app can also try to connect to the plug with Bluetooth.\n4. Once the App connects to the plug, it configures the plug for Wifi by asking you to select the Wireless network. After this step, the setup is done.\n\nOPERATING THE PLUG\nWith Echo dot\nWith echo dot I can simply say "Alexa, turn on first plug" and it turns on the plug. After I changed the name of plug to "Christmas tree" in the Alexa app, I could simply say "Alexa, turn on christmas tree"\n\nManually\nThere is a switch on the side of the plug as well which you can use to manually turn on/off the plug. The switch gives a tactile feedback when you use it.\n\nTHINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU BUY THIS PLUG\n1. This plug supports current up to 15 Amperes, which is good enough for most of the appliances.\n2. Alexa adds the plug as "First plug" by default. But you can change the name of the plug in the app.\n3. This plug doesn\'t remember the state it was in if you remove it from the socket. If you remove the plug from the switch while this was on and plug it back in, the plug will be turned off. I think this might be because of safety issues and I prefer this behavior.'}]

I had a blink camera setup aiming at my front door so at first I was not too sure that I really needed the door bell. However for the cost I am very glad I got one. There are a couple of things to know:\n\n(1) If you are an existing Blink customer, you do not need a second sync module. All you need is the door bell and you can simple add it to your existing account (as easy as adding an additional camera).\n\n(2) If you are planning on hardwiring the blink doorbell to your existing doorbells wires. . . . you still have to use 2 AA batteries to power the camera. This did not make sense to me as I figured my hardwires would power it, but sure enough after calling Blink support I realized I needed to put the AA batteries in the camera. The hard wire will allow your blink doorbell to ring the doorbell in your home but will not power the camera.\n\n(3) You can turn on motion detection or just have the blink door bell turn on when the door bell is rung. This is a nice feature. If you want to catch anyone that comes to your door (whether they ring the bell or not, you can simple turn this feature on in the app). If you want to save battery life and are only interested in door bell ringers you can turn motion detection off.\n\n(4) It has two way audio, meaning you will always hear the person at your door. . . . but you can also choose to speak to the person if you choose. For me the audio the person at the door hears comes across a little staticky, but that could be my phone or the fact that I am using the corner mount.\n\n(5) It has more of a fish bowl view so it catches a wide view (meaning it can cover most of your front porch)\n\n(6) There is no additional cost to having the Blink doorbell or camera system. Unlike other door bell systems out there, there is no additional cost to the Blink Doorbell. The app is free, cloud storage is free, downloading images or videos is free, etc.\n\nIf you are looking to set it up with just batteries and no wiring to an existing doorbell system, setup is a breeze (will take two minutes). If you are looking to hard wire it, it is still pretty easy. I am not a handy man and what I know about electricity will shock you (get my joke) but even I was able to hard wire it.

You get quick notifications when someone is at your door. You can set it to capture any motion at your property. You can set focus areas, and private areas. You can set the length of record time from 5 to 20 seconds. The placement of the doorbell we'll also impact what's your camera picks up. But after having had and installing various types of doorbell cameras from Ring and more. I'm satisfied. Why go and buy a $100, or $200 option when you can purchase of $50 option that is just as good.\n\nSure there are some drawbacks, but they will be drawbacks with all of them. If I had to point out any one drawback is that the cameras motion capture has a cool down before it can record again.\nExample: if the camera has a view of the street and 2 cars go by, the second car could go by without ever being captured on video if it wasn't recorded in the same clip as the first car.\n\nYou can extend to about of time each clip is allowing you to get more footage. But longer record times use more battery life.\n\nI got this one because I already had a hub, and 2 cameras I can capture any, and everything that comes my way.

I will say that the instructions are not very detailed but being tech oriented I was able to figure everything out. I added the blink app and connected the sync 2 module up using the app instructions which were fine. I did buy a 256gb usb for internal storage which was detected in the app. Once the sync module was up I added the batteries to the camera but left the back off. In the app you add the device as a doorbell and follow the setup. Once done I took the back outside and started to mount it. Prior to mounting you have to leave a small space on the side so you can put the cover on. In my case I left a little on the left. Mine is mounted on the trim which is on a corner so I did use 2” screws with the same thickness as the ones provided and also took a little clear weather caulk to give it as seal. Don’t cover the contacts on the back. The longer screws hopefully with deter someone from stealing it but my neighbors has been up for months. These screws were long enough to get to the wood door frame. I did change the 10sec delay to 15 so less pics are taken as we are coming and going. Quality looked good on a cloudy day so I’ll have to see how night is as well. So far I like it. We shall see how the battery does.

That’s ridiculous'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-2 review-rating', 'review_body': "A few years ago I was excited to see that BLINK had a doorbell announced at CES so I committed to a multi-camera setup. After it became apparent it wasn't being released, I purchased a RING doorbell and subscription plan begrudgingly. The minute I saw the pre-order for this, I instantly grabbed one. Excited to have everything in one ecosystem, the anticipating and re-excitement from years ago was there. During the waiting period I realized someone pointed out, which at the time was NOT listed on the pre-order page, that you need a Sync-2 module to save the footage/rings. I had a spare but it could have been annoying. Fast forward to today when I received it. It looks beautiful and is a slim profile but the mounting bracket is an absolute joke. 2 shallow screws and no thumbail screw to lock the device in, this could easily be ripped out of the wall within 2 seconds. Combine that with the amount of pressure needed to lock this device into place, theres no doubt in my mind that after a year of changing the batteries some of these small clip/brackets on the plate will indeed snap. The image quality is way too HDR and totally blown out by the sun and bright daylight in the sky, creating a darkness on the face of whoever rings the bell which surprise, kind of defeats the purpose. Lastly, the fact that Amazon did NOT have the mount was the cherry on top. The email they sent later allowed us to order the corner mount free of charge, but inside the blink app it states that it should come with a couple different mounting plate options which it did not. So all in all, I prefer the Blink ecosystem to most and physically this doorbell is great but for something in R&D for 3+ years you definitely dropped the ball on the easiest pieces of the puzzle, especially for a company that owns RING which has an excellent mounting package in the box."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-3 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I just installed this and it seems to be working fine so far, not more than an hour on it so far.

I have every iteration of their products and was excited to see them offer a doorbell. That excitement wore off quickly after I installed their doorbell and soon turned to disappointment. Here are my issues with the doorbell:\n1. Short battery life. Even though it's connected to my 24VAC doorbell transformer, it still runs on battery power. I have burned through the first set of lithium AA's in less than 3 weeks of use.\n2. I had to purchase their angled mount ($8) separately because my doorbell button is low and the doorbell camera was cutting off the heads of tall people.\n3. Notifications. This is my biggest beef. Right now, if someone rings the bell, you get a standard notification on your phone. You can also set your Alexa devices to make a voice announcement that the doorbell was rung. That's it. You don't get automatic live video of the doorbell camera on the app or Echo Shows, Spots etc. You don't know who's there. I suspect this is a hardware limitation of the Blink system. When a Blink camera is recording, you can't pull up a live video feed. I'm doubtful that this critical feature will ever be added."}]

I set up the streaming stick in less than 5 minutes. It took a little longer to re-log back into all my services like Amazon, Netflix, etc. but that was expected. As for performance, this streaming stick is faster than the previous generation Stick+. There is no lag whatsoever with this new one. The wifi is definitely longer range since I can move the stick to the garage and there is no lag when I move it out there compared to the older streaming stick. The picture is awesome and you can watch 4K without any issues. The remote works well and the voice recognition recognizes my voice well. If you’re wondering what the difference between the 4K streaming stick versus 4K streaming stick+, the only difference is the remote. Overall, I would recommend this new Roku streaming stick 4K for its streaming quality, speed and longer range wifi.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'A month ago, our ISP upgraded our modem to a smart modem. Because of this, our old Roku device (which was a 2018 model Express) could not maintain a connection to the WiFi for the life of it. It was only two rooms away, yet was constantly dropping connection.\n\nI went online and saw this one was being marketed as "long-range WiFi" and decided to go ahead and buy it. I can\'t express how much of a good decision that was. This streaming stick maintains a 4/5 connection at all times, loads instantly, and is in every way an upgrade from our 2018 Express.\n\nI love how this remote has power, volume, and mute buttons for the TV too, that\'s very convenient. The voice control is great. Most devices can\'t understand me because I have a lisp, but this streaming stick doesn\'t seem to have any problems with my voice.\n\nI\'m always cautious spending upwards of $30 on anything because we\'re pretty poor, but in this case, this streaming stick was 100% worth the $50 it cost.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "I like the available apps, especially Spectrum TV.

This new device is fantastic; great picture, speedy download speed and no loss of signal strength.\n\nHighly recommended.\n\nADDENDUM: I have been using this 2021 ROKU for 4 days. This new 4K model is a game changer and I may switch my older ROKU streaming sticks to this new model; it is that good. It allows me to take advantage of the excellent resolution on my 4K televisions. My download speed is 144!!! I subscribe to a 500 speed from COX communication. The new ROKU device is far from the modem at the other end of a large home.\nFull Disclosure: I am so impressed with ROKU products that I have purchased ROKU stock.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-4 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I bought this specifically because I was having trouble with my old Roku Premiere+ being able to stream YouTube videos in 4K. It would always default to standard definition or worse and never get any better. This should not have been happening, as I have 100 mbps fiber internet service. For reference, YouTube 4K requires 20 mbps, which I have 5x the requirement for.\n\nSo, I decided that because this model was touting "long-range wireless" that maybe this would remedy the problem. It did not. The claims are that this model has 2x the wireless speed of previous Rokus. Maybe this is true, but the actual speed it does get is absolutely terrible.\n\nI have attached two pictures to this review. One is of the wireless speed that the Roku is saying it has (purple screen), which is 2 mbps. Bear in mind, this is about 10ft from my wireless router. The second picture is of a speed test that I ran (on the WiFi) of my iPhone literally laying on top of the Roku at the TV and it is getting 122 mbps up and down.\n\nSo, you can see why I am having so many issues with streaming in general with this thing. This device is only capable of utilizing 1.6% of the speed that my wireless router is delivering. My advice to most people looking at this thing, avoid at all costs. There are many other streaming options that will reliably deliver the speeds you need for proper streaming.\n\nUpdate: 10/23/21\n\nSo, after a week of pulling my hair out with this thing, I decided to format it to return it. Thankfully, I decided to give it one last shot before sending it back.\n\nI’m glad I did, because after the format, it started miraculously working for about 3 days now. It gets 150+ mbps. I checked all of the settings to see what exactly had changed. Turns out it was my wireless router assigning a terrible channel to the Roku!! It put it on channel 1 initially. Same with my old Roku Premiere. Both were getting 2 mbps. For whatever reason, it assigned this Roku after formatting to channel 48 on my network and that fixed everything.\n\nSo, your mileage really may vary here. You may not have the router problem I had and it works flawlessly, or you may have the same or worse. I still kind of feel like this could be an issue involving Roku, like the Roku maybe should tell the router “Hey, this channel sucks, please give me a different one!”\n\nI have updated my review to 4 stars because it is the best streaming device out of all that I have tried. Roku is a great company with a great UI. I just can’t quite give it 5 stars because of the WiFi issues because I don’t know if the blame is fully on my router, since I don’t have any other devices having issues.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'We have been a Roku family since they first came out and looked like little hockey pucks.

Startup is about the same - maybe 2 seconds less of the "Bouncing Roku" logo. Menu navigation is super fast with zero lag. There still is the "spinning wheel" as videos are first loaded and we have a gigabit connection with super fast WIFI in our house.\n\nAm I going to upgrade the rest of our Rokus to this model? Probably not -- the difference isn\'t that large. However this is a great streaming stick that offers all the major streaming services (Youtube may vanish in December pending a contractual dispute), great voice control and an intuitive remote.

It is about the same width as the previous Echo 3rd Gen, but since it is a ball now it is obviously a little taller. The blue light is now on the bottom. Here are my thought so far:\n\nTHE GOOD\n\n- Bottom ring light. The new blue light on the bottom actually illuminates the surface that the Dot is sitting on. This actually makes the light considerably more noticeable, especially if sitting on a semi-reflective surface.\n- Slightly better sound. The actual speaker hardware is the same as the 3rd Gen Dot, but this one sounds slightly better to my ear. This could be because the speaker is pointed toward the front, instead of pointing straight up like it was in the previous model.\n\nTHE BAD\n\n- Aesthetics. This is personal opinion of course, but I think I prefer the smaller, less noticeable "hockey puck" shape of the previous models. This one is closer to a softball, and stands out much more. Sure it might be better for creating sound, but I don\'t use Dots for music listening anyway. If I wanted to do that I would use a regular Echo or Echo Studio, which of course sound much better than this Dot. The whole point of the Dot for me was to use it in locations where I wanted a small device that doesn\'t take up much space.\n- Price. The old Gen 3 Dot is now $10 cheaper than this version, and it is really hard for me to justify choosing this Gen 4. It really seems like you are just paying for the new shape and very slightly better sound, but that doesn\'t currently seem worth it to me. There just aren\'t enough improvements from what I\'ve seen so far.\n\nAll in all, this new Gen 4 Dot might be worth it for you if you really dig the ball shape and bottom ring light, but otherwise I\'d have to recommend sticking with the Gen 3 for $10 less.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I purchased this as i always do with the latest and greatest echo devices.

The charger is Noticeably larger and cheaper looking, sporting rounded corners and a bulky design.\n3. The sound quality vs my 2nd Gen Dot has actually gotten worse. This speaker lacks bass and is very "hollow" sounding. The gen 2 speaker blows the gen 3 out of the water, IMO they majorly cheaped out to get you other features like an Ai core and a bulkier bigger device, in bigger packaging, requiring more shiping cost, a poor trade off for quality.\n4. Its fabric mesh, and construction seem cheaper than previous generations, it is significantly lighter than a previous gen (my guess is a small speaker magnet and more airspace due to its odd shape)\n5. Its small, i thought the ball was cool, big and substantially, Like a speaker should be, but its tennis ball sized and looks like a childs toy, or a cheap bluetooth speaker you got for $5.....\n6. It has this awful "sheen" to the plastic that makes it look like some Chinese garbage product....\n7.

I was 90 miles away and able to communicate with the Paramedics and have my parents meet them at the hospital.\n\nOriginal review:\nExcellent camera and easy to use.\n\nI see some reviews complaining about they couldn't get the camera to connect. I had the same issue, but I figured out. These cameras need a 2.4GHz WiFi network with a WPA/WPA2 protocol. Wyze Devices cannot be connected to a 5GHz network. So go into your router settings and change it. Many have the option to run both at the same time, which is what I did.\n\nAlso, if you're having an issue at the QR code screen, where is says scan with cam.

For example when my granddaughter comes to visit, I move one into her room to use as a baby monitor.\nThe night vision is impressive! (But see what I don’t like below).\nThe clarity of the image is really good.\nThe app is very easy to use; it’s easy to group the cameras however you want. I like that I can see all the cameras in a single app, and group them by each house that they are in.\n\nWhat I don’t like:\nIf the WiFi goes out, you lose your connection and your ability to monitor. It can be impossible to reboot your router and modem remotely (if you are using these in a house where you’re not physically there). If you can’t get your internet going again by rebooting your router remotely, then there is also no way to “restart” these cameras. For that reason, everyone in that situation should consider also buying a router rebooter at the same time they buy these cameras.\n\nYou can face these out the window and they have excellent night vision—but ONLY if they are mounted directly (straight on) to the window. (There are window stick-on mounting accessories for that.) But if you have them facing out a window at any angle at all, and not flush up against the window, there is no way to see anything at night due to the glare off the window—even with the night vision turned off. They just don’t work that way.\nDepending upon where you need to mount these, it is sometimes difficult to get just the right angle with the provided mounting gear.\n\nI also have the older V2 cameras as well, several of which have “gone bad” with a very grainy image after a couple of years—I hope the same thing doesn’t happen with these V3 cameras.\n\nAnd ALSO, WYZE has gotten annoying with marketing their “cam Plus” service. You cannot connect a new camera without accepting that free trial, and once you accept the free trial, they send far too many reminders that your free trial is expiring. I get the importance of the whole marketing thing—it’s just a bit overboard—especially since you go through it every time you add a new camera.\n\nOverall, I am really happy with these V3 WYZE cameras and I do recommend them. By a long shot, the positives outweigh the things I don’t like about them.\n\nI write honest reviews to help others make informed purchases because I read reviews myself and appreciate how helpful they can be.

[{'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 28, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'iPad is my go to device, other than my work computer. I use it for everything. From watching TV/Movies, to sketching to reading magazines, and everything else.\n\nBackground: I currently own 4 iPads (12.9 inch iPad Pro 2015, 12.9 inch iPad Pro 2021, iPad 2018, and now 2021 iPad 10.2) and have owned several others before, and a Surface Pro, a recent Surface Book, and 2 Kindle Fire tablets so I can say with confidence I am a tablet user. :-) Tablets are how I consume my content and though I\'ve given other devices a chance I keep coming back to iPads due to the intuitive interface and not having to worry about the device, and just enjoy my content.\n\nWhy I like this iPad 10.2 inch:\nWhy did I get this one despite owning a 2021 iPad Pro 12.9 inch?\nThis size of iPad is at the right price point and it has the right features, to make it my everywhere in the home, backyard, and travel companion. This is the one I don\'t have to worry about losing vs. my 2021 iPad Pro 1 TB that was just under $2K. The size makes it super convenient to carry around to read in a park or on the plane, do a quick FaceTime call while reading a recipe off it in the kitchen (the FT appears in a little window) and cooking. I love sketching on my iPad, and this 10.2 iPad though smaller than iPad Pro 12.9, feels more like a notebook, while the iPad Pro 12.9 inch is a magazine size (see photos for comparison of 2021 iPad Pro 12.9 with this iPad) and can be heavy to hold with one hand, I need to prop it up while sketching. I find the new iPad even more responsive to the Apple pencil, it\'s a joy to sketch on these or take quick notes during meetings, that then convert to text if I want. Though I LOVE my iPad Pro this one gets a lot of use due to the size and portability.\n\nI like keeping this one on my recliner arm to browse around when I am next to the TV to find out more about the program I\'m watching, or to read a book in bed without worrying about dropping it on my face. The iPad Pro needs to be propped up, and once almost broke my nose when I got sleepy and it fell on my face! I also love looking at my photos that I take on the iPhone on my iPad as it\'s more immersive and so much easier to show someone than squinting at the phone. I usually keep the photos in iCloud due to the limit on storage on the device, and the iPad can just download them when I am viewing them. I also do craft work, and watching YouTube instruction videos and reading my crochet patterns is great on this size, it\'s just ready on the side of my sofa. I also drop it countless times (with case on) as it\'s sitting on the sofa arm, something I worry more about with the iPad Pro as it\'s bigger. I also like that this is the one device that still has a headphone jack, I own some sets of high end earbuds that use the traditional jack and it\'s great to be able to use them with it as the bluetooth buds need to be charged and sometimes I just want things to be simpler.\n\nThe 12 MP Front Camera on this 2021 version is great as FaceTime is so much clearer than my older version, I had to switch to my phone to FaceTime earlier due to the blurry video, but now I can do it right from the iPad. iOS 15 has all new features like Center Stage where the camera moves with the participant in a call, and that makes it so useful. I typically don\'t use a keyboard on my 10.2 iPad as I rarely type on it. I prefer doing that on my iPad Pro, but I\'ve tried this size with Belkin and Logitech keyboards and they worked really well. Although I could fold them back, I just didn\'t like the added weight as I did not use the keyboard often enough and once you put on that keyboard cover the advantages of a light tablet go away.\n\nOverall, I would not really recommend upgrading if you have a recent iPad, but if you want to give your older iPad to a kid or your mom and get this one, go for it. However, I do recommend getting an iPad over other tablets. iOS 15 has unlocked even more features on it and it\'s super intuitive. It makes me happy to have a device where I can sketch at a moments notice, watch a show, or a craft video, edit my docs, write down my "bright" ideas with Apple pencil and have them convert to text, talk to my friends on video and oh yes, also listen to music, although I do that more on my phone. And it\'s the right size to carry in my purse, and I don\'t have to panic about dropping it or even losing it. Go ahead, you deserve it.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': " Upgraded from an IPad 2018 6th Generation to the Ipad 2021 9th Generation. As you can see in the picture the new Ipad is on the left, it is slightly bigger than the 6th gen IPad, and a little heavier.\n\nHave used the 6th gen Ipad every day since I got it back in 2018 as a gift from a friend. And have really really enjoyed using it, never have had any problems with it. When I saw the new 9th gen was coming out I preordered wanting to upgrade, and was going to trade in the old 2018 ($150) but my wife wanted it so gave it to her instead. But she likes this one so much she is thinking of trading it in and getting a 9th gen as well.\n\nThis Ipad has 64gigs of storage instead of the 32gigs I was used to. Which is greatly appreciated!. I spend a lot of time on the beach with my Ipad, reading, listening to music, and occasionally watching a program or two. I now have more storage for the music and videos.\n\nNow one of the main reasons I use the IPad is for my meetings for worship with the JW Library app and Zoom. JW Library has no lag. It's wonderful to use on this tablet. And I've used Zoom already a few times since I got this Ipad last week. And I can tell you the front facing camera upgrade is amazing, from the 1mp to 12mp you can notice a huge difference. And how the camera tracks you or you with your partner is a great feature we love!\n\nI don't know what type of rear-facing camera the 6th gen had compared to this one but there is a huge difference. I added a couple pictures I took of a sunset and sunrise on the beach, and a video. I am astonished at the quality and the beauty of the pics with this IPad. I have literally taken dozens of pics already and you can see for yourself the quality.\n\nHave also played around with some of the apps that came preloaded with it on OS 15 such as Imovies. Making a home movie, adding pictures, and effects, and music, is a breeze, the A13 processor has no problems whatsoever handling making the movies.\n\nI downloaded the new show The Lost Symbol to try out this tablet. And I can tell you it is a great viewing experience while winding down at the end of the day before going to bed. I am glad it still has the headphone jack.\n\nThe True Tone technology on the screen leaves viewing the pictures taken and watching videos an amazing experience. This is a great technology that really shines through on this tablet.\n\nI am super satisfied with this tablet and highly recommend it for its easy of use, and tons of awesome features and quality for the price. If you're wanting to take awesome pictures or videos, use it for meetings and video conferences, and reading, such as using the JW Library app.\n\nA couple of other features more from the OS than the tablet itself I thought were worth mentioning. Having the Translate app on the home page. My wife is learning English and is always using this to translate messages she gets and sends all day, a great great feature! And the Background Sounds which can be activated and put on the control center through Accessibility and Audio Visual, and Background sounds. My wife turns this on every night to help her get to sleep.\n\n10/10!"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-3 review-rating', 'review_body': 'If you decide to purchase an older version of iPad.

This is great for video calls as it tracks your movement and keeps you in the center of the frame. Now compared to the 1.2MP Camera on last years version!\n\nThe 9th Gen also has a faster processor running the neural processor system.

I read a lot of reviews complaining about the software not updating to the latest iOS version.

I really wanted to get started reading on the new Kindle and make good use of my subscription.\n\nWell, sad day, this is how my Kindle looked when I received it and tried to power it on. I already traded in my old Kindle, have a free Kindle Unlimited subscription, and well, no functional Kindle to read on.\n\nI had to spend my free time today contacting Amazon to arrange for a replacement to be sent, and the fastest they can replace this is FIVE more days even with my Prime subscription. So there go another 5 days of not using the Kindle Unlimited or getting the joy of reading a book in the evenings.\n\nOh, and I get to be the one to have to make a trip to UPS to return the non-functional Kindle. How convenient.\n\nApparently, this device is not well-made, and let's just say, I'm not pleased. I wish I had NEVER traded in my older Kindle!\n\nUPDATE: They sent me a REFURBISHED Kindle rather than a new replacement. What on earth?????!!!!! I even specifically asked customer service if the replacement would be new rather than refurbished and they promised me it would be new because it arrived not functional and was within the 30-day window.

While it’s not a deal breaker it hurts portability and single-hand use that little bit. The latter is especially noticeable because, unlike it’s pricier sibling the Oasis, it lacks an asymmetric grip and page turn buttons.\n\nWhile the resolution of the new display is the same 300 PPI, I encountered noteworthy issues with display sharpness when compared to the 2018 model. As pictured (to the best of my ability) my new model lacks sharpness and contrast all around the edges and in particular on the left side which results in a soft almost fuzzy lack of crispness to all text or images.\n\nTo make matters worse the consistency of this issue varies wildly across the display. In the image you can almost make out the random diagonal plane of sharpness towards the center of the display. This means that you find yourself consistently reminded how soft the fuzzy portions are compared to the properly sharp portions.\n\nI’m thrilled to see Amazon finally include USB-C and warm-light adjustment, but I find it especially hard to look past the display issues on a device expressly built for reading.

Connect via HDMI\n2. Open Display settings and make sure that they are set so that only the 2nd display is turned on, do not put duplicate or extend.\n3. Open Nvidia control panel and go to "Change Resolution"\n4. You will see two lists, one will say HD, UHD etc, the other one at the bottom will say "PC", (changing the first list will project your laptop screen to the second screen however your laptop is 60Hz and the monitor is 75Hz that is why its limited to 60Hz and colors are washed out, changing the second list will basically use your laptop to power up the monitor at full 75Hz 1080p with the right color calibration.)\n5. On list two "PC" change the resolution to 1080p and 75Hz\n\nAnd there you go, now you can use your 75Hz monitor for gaming, make sure to change the settings indvidually in games to 75Hz or they will still run at 60Hz and the colors will be washed out.\n\nNow onto the review\n\n*** REVIEW ***\nThe screen resolution is full 1920x1080p at 75Hz, the colors are very accurate, it looks no where near like a TN panel, I would say its in between a TN panel and an IPS panel but closer to IPS.\n\nIt comes with speakers which are ok for the price but I recommend headphones or your own speakers which are probably better if you got this for gaming.\n\nThis is what comes in the package\n- Monitor\n- 4 screws for mounting\n- Two screws for setting up the monitor (non adjustable height(\n- HDMI to VGA cable\n- VGA to VGA cable\n\nI really recommend this monitor even if not for gaming, its a great price for what you get and it even comes with two cables.\n\nHowever one thing to note is that the difference between 60Hz and 75Hz is hard to notice in games. Playing Witcher 3 and Rise of Tomb Raider at locked in 75FPS wasn\'t anything much more amazing than 60FPS. However it is still an improvement.\n\nOne last thing to confider if you’re debating on a 75Hz vs 144Hz monitor\n- If you have a graphics card such as the GTX 770,970,1060 Most games (witcher, call of duty, battlefield wont go back 80 fps on ultra / high graphics) so you wont be able to take advantage of a 144Hz monitor, so I suggest this one. UNLESS you play on medium/low settings.\n- If you have a graphics card such as a GTX 770,780,980,1070 and above, I suggest the 144Hz monitor since these can run most tiles at well above 100FPS so you can take advantage of the monitor.\n\n*** UPDATE ***\nEarlier on the review I said the difference between 60Hz and 75Hz was negligible, I take it back.\n\nI played on my laptop which is limited to 60Hz and it feels bad and slugish compared to 75Hz, once you go higher refresh rate you can never go back\n\nIts one of those things you dont realise until its taken away, great improvement.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "If you are rating this like you ordered a $500 top of the line gaming monitor, then it's YOU that has issues, not the product. For under $120 this monitor well surpassed my expectations initially, as for longevity, we'll see. Great picture quality, thin appearance, and pretty small bezels. Came with HDMI cord (wasn't expecting that) and spacers for wall mounts/other mounting kits. Usable UI for adjustments if that's your thing. I honestly just set it up, plugged it in and bobs you're uncle. Again, it was only $104 when I ordered it, so this review is based on that. What else can be said? 24 inches is 24 inches, 75 hertz is 75 hertz, colors are colored and cords do cord things! For the price, it's definitely recommended and expectations where exceeded. Don't buy a monitor under $120 and try to review it like a $500 god-like gaming accessory.\nSo to recap, the monitor monitors, cords cord, and the stand stands. Cough into you elbow, stop driving 100mph and don't go to Walmart just to browse the electronics during a pandemic.\nUpdate- Jan 2021-\nturns out that you shouldn't sit near anything valuable while in vr. Still worked great even after I had smacked/punched it accidentally in vr......well at least the first 8 or 9 times anyway. The last hit did it in for good unfortunately but clearly not at all any fault of the brand.

After seeing the complaints about the colors being washed out, I gave my monitors away and decided if there were any problems with these I'd either live with it or fix it.\n\nOut of the box the monitors were fine. The only complaint I can come up with is that the VESA mounts are lower on the back due to the slim design. After looking at settings, I determined that for me as an IT manager I didn't need to recalibrate the screens at all. Granted, I spend most of my time looking at text documents, configuration pages for network equipment, and the accounting software my company uses. I couldn't speak to color calibration for individuals doing video or photo production.\n\nOne thought on the others experiencing washed out colors - HDMI out on a computer kind of expects a TV. Televisions and Monitors will sometimes have different ranges for black levels, which can cause the screen to look washed out. If you're experiencing this, check the control panel for your graphics driver. You should be able to adjust black levels and fix the issue.

Here is some more detail:\n\nThe product itself was a piece of junk, the picture quality was grainy and pixelated (not sure why they call this a "Gaming Monitor"), and the lighting was super difficult to adjust, you need to go behind the monitor and click like 8 different buttons to be able to simply adjust the brightness of the monitor.\n\nWhen I tried to return the item I realized the seller actually doesn\'t work with regular Amazon return options (Kohl or UPS drop offs). So I had to wait for a week for them to issue a Fedex label. When I went to Fedex the label didn\'t cover the full cost of return, so I had to pay an extra $20 (Yes, 20 with a zero!) just to ship the product back to the seller. 5 days after it was delivered (with Fedex proof of delivery), seller still said they couldn\'t issue my refund because they "can\'t scan the item back". I eventually had to call Amazon and file a complaint and claim my refund under their Guaranty of Return.

Avoid this seller at all cost.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "I have bought sceptre monitors in the past, and I stand by them as a great budget monitor company if you want something that's reliable and inexpensive. I purchased these monitors as secondary monitors and vertical monitors for my setup. From my experience, I knew that these monitors would be good for work other than gaming, so I primarily use them for watching videos, discord, or just as an extra screen for when I am doing work. I overall enjoy these monitors, but I have two major issues that I had first when I got them.\n\nI love the monitors, and they could be a 5-star product if they tweaked a couple of things. I will talk first about the main advantages of the monitors first. Firstly, for $150, you are getting a monitor with decent viewing angles and a good size with 75hz refresh rate viewing. For the price, it is a very good monitor alone for office or schoolwork. It does its job very well and anybody who is doing basic work or maybe some console gaming would have a good experience with these monitors. Furthermore, they are VESA mount* (more on that below), and it has a good display, with a speaker that although quiet, does the job well without sounding blown out. Overall, it is a good monitor, and anybody who wants something basic will enjoy this monitor.\n\nHere are the cons from my experience, as it had a couple off the start. I first opened the box to find that it talks about its return policy on the box. This was extremely concerning since it is almost impossible to send this monitor back. Please keep everything (including box and packaging materials) for the first month you own the monitor. The second issue I had was the mounting brackets you get with the monitor. For one thing, the monitor uses a separate monitor arm, that is screwed into a bracket that comes out of the monitor. If you plan on not using any desk mounts or VESA mounting, then you will have no problem with this monitor. However, I wanted to mount this monitor to a VESA desk mount to use as a vertical monitor. My first issue came when I tried to mount the monitor, when I tried to mount the monitor to the arm by screwing in the screws provided with the arm. The first issue comes with the hardware included with the monitor, there are four standoffs and two monitor screws, but the arm needed four screws, so we already are set back. I found some old monitor screws that fit, and when I mounted the monitor, I realized that the monitor wouldn't fit due to the bracket secured on the back, which sticks out of the monitor to make more viewing angles. Again, this won't be an issue for those who are planning on not using any VESA mounting, however, it makes the process a lot more difficult for those who are planning on doing any mounting of their monitor with a third party device. It took me like 20 minutes before I realized that the standoffs that are included are for VESA mounting, which although makes some sense, also makes me question why to include the mounting bracket externally when it could have been included inside of the monitor since there is a cutout section that fits it.\n\nI see this question a lot, and I feel that I should address it here for those who want to game on this monitor: get a different monitor. First, this monitor is a 75hz 5ms, meaning it refreshes the screen 75 times in one second, and it responds 5ms after the information has been sent by the PC. There are plenty of 144hz monitors with a 1ms response time for this price, and I recommend that you look for something at that price. If you want something to game on for the long run, get a 144hz monitor at the same price, it'll work better overall, and be around the same budget.\n\nOverall I highly enjoy this monitor. I give it four stars since it works very well for what I need it to do, and although it has its flaws I wouldn't want another monitor. It could have been five stars, only if the price was a little bit cheaper. The price does go up with the blue light shift that occurs, but the $133 option is still a little overpriced, I would personally price this around $115 and it would be the ultimate monitor for the price. Overall, if you want a monitor for office work, then please consider this, it's a great monitor."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'The first monitor I got had a few bright spots in it, I figured it was just fluke and asked to have a new one sent to me. The new one they sent me has 3 really apparent bright spots and 5 that the average user might not immediately notice. I work in the laptop refurb business and look at screen regularly to asses their value. Based on the standards we use these screens are the lowest level you can rate.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'PRO:\nThe built in speaker was a nice surprise.

Restarted the monitor and the PC, but the line is even in the monitor\'s "SCEPTRE" splash screen AND the "Cannot detect input!" screen.\n\nOverall would not recommend this.'}]

[{'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 28, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'iPad is my go to device, other than my work computer. I use it for everything. From watching TV/Movies, to sketching to reading magazines, and everything else.\n\nBackground: I currently own 4 iPads (12.9 inch iPad Pro 2015, 12.9 inch iPad Pro 2021, iPad 2018, and now 2021 iPad 10.2) and have owned several others before, and a Surface Pro, a recent Surface Book, and 2 Kindle Fire tablets so I can say with confidence I am a tablet user. :-) Tablets are how I consume my content and though I\'ve given other devices a chance I keep coming back to iPads due to the intuitive interface and not having to worry about the device, and just enjoy my content.\n\nWhy I like this iPad 10.2 inch:\nWhy did I get this one despite owning a 2021 iPad Pro 12.9 inch?\nThis size of iPad is at the right price point and it has the right features, to make it my everywhere in the home, backyard, and travel companion. This is the one I don\'t have to worry about losing vs. my 2021 iPad Pro 1 TB that was just under $2K. The size makes it super convenient to carry around to read in a park or on the plane, do a quick FaceTime call while reading a recipe off it in the kitchen (the FT appears in a little window) and cooking. I love sketching on my iPad, and this 10.2 iPad though smaller than iPad Pro 12.9, feels more like a notebook, while the iPad Pro 12.9 inch is a magazine size (see photos for comparison of 2021 iPad Pro 12.9 with this iPad) and can be heavy to hold with one hand, I need to prop it up while sketching. I find the new iPad even more responsive to the Apple pencil, it\'s a joy to sketch on these or take quick notes during meetings, that then convert to text if I want. Though I LOVE my iPad Pro this one gets a lot of use due to the size and portability.\n\nI like keeping this one on my recliner arm to browse around when I am next to the TV to find out more about the program I\'m watching, or to read a book in bed without worrying about dropping it on my face. The iPad Pro needs to be propped up, and once almost broke my nose when I got sleepy and it fell on my face! I also love looking at my photos that I take on the iPhone on my iPad as it\'s more immersive and so much easier to show someone than squinting at the phone. I usually keep the photos in iCloud due to the limit on storage on the device, and the iPad can just download them when I am viewing them. I also do craft work, and watching YouTube instruction videos and reading my crochet patterns is great on this size, it\'s just ready on the side of my sofa. I also drop it countless times (with case on) as it\'s sitting on the sofa arm, something I worry more about with the iPad Pro as it\'s bigger. I also like that this is the one device that still has a headphone jack, I own some sets of high end earbuds that use the traditional jack and it\'s great to be able to use them with it as the bluetooth buds need to be charged and sometimes I just want things to be simpler.\n\nThe 12 MP Front Camera on this 2021 version is great as FaceTime is so much clearer than my older version, I had to switch to my phone to FaceTime earlier due to the blurry video, but now I can do it right from the iPad. iOS 15 has all new features like Center Stage where the camera moves with the participant in a call, and that makes it so useful. I typically don\'t use a keyboard on my 10.2 iPad as I rarely type on it. I prefer doing that on my iPad Pro, but I\'ve tried this size with Belkin and Logitech keyboards and they worked really well. Although I could fold them back, I just didn\'t like the added weight as I did not use the keyboard often enough and once you put on that keyboard cover the advantages of a light tablet go away.\n\nOverall, I would not really recommend upgrading if you have a recent iPad, but if you want to give your older iPad to a kid or your mom and get this one, go for it. However, I do recommend getting an iPad over other tablets. iOS 15 has unlocked even more features on it and it\'s super intuitive. It makes me happy to have a device where I can sketch at a moments notice, watch a show, or a craft video, edit my docs, write down my "bright" ideas with Apple pencil and have them convert to text, talk to my friends on video and oh yes, also listen to music, although I do that more on my phone. And it\'s the right size to carry in my purse, and I don\'t have to panic about dropping it or even losing it. Go ahead, you deserve it.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': " Upgraded from an IPad 2018 6th Generation to the Ipad 2021 9th Generation. As you can see in the picture the new Ipad is on the left, it is slightly bigger than the 6th gen IPad, and a little heavier.\n\nHave used the 6th gen Ipad every day since I got it back in 2018 as a gift from a friend. And have really really enjoyed using it, never have had any problems with it. When I saw the new 9th gen was coming out I preordered wanting to upgrade, and was going to trade in the old 2018 ($150) but my wife wanted it so gave it to her instead. But she likes this one so much she is thinking of trading it in and getting a 9th gen as well.\n\nThis Ipad has 64gigs of storage instead of the 32gigs I was used to. Which is greatly appreciated!. I spend a lot of time on the beach with my Ipad, reading, listening to music, and occasionally watching a program or two. I now have more storage for the music and videos.\n\nNow one of the main reasons I use the IPad is for my meetings for worship with the JW Library app and Zoom. JW Library has no lag. It's wonderful to use on this tablet. And I've used Zoom already a few times since I got this Ipad last week. And I can tell you the front facing camera upgrade is amazing, from the 1mp to 12mp you can notice a huge difference. And how the camera tracks you or you with your partner is a great feature we love!\n\nI don't know what type of rear-facing camera the 6th gen had compared to this one but there is a huge difference. I added a couple pictures I took of a sunset and sunrise on the beach, and a video. I am astonished at the quality and the beauty of the pics with this IPad. I have literally taken dozens of pics already and you can see for yourself the quality.\n\nHave also played around with some of the apps that came preloaded with it on OS 15 such as Imovies. Making a home movie, adding pictures, and effects, and music, is a breeze, the A13 processor has no problems whatsoever handling making the movies.\n\nI downloaded the new show The Lost Symbol to try out this tablet. And I can tell you it is a great viewing experience while winding down at the end of the day before going to bed. I am glad it still has the headphone jack.\n\nThe True Tone technology on the screen leaves viewing the pictures taken and watching videos an amazing experience. This is a great technology that really shines through on this tablet.\n\nI am super satisfied with this tablet and highly recommend it for its easy of use, and tons of awesome features and quality for the price. If you're wanting to take awesome pictures or videos, use it for meetings and video conferences, and reading, such as using the JW Library app.\n\nA couple of other features more from the OS than the tablet itself I thought were worth mentioning. Having the Translate app on the home page. My wife is learning English and is always using this to translate messages she gets and sends all day, a great great feature! And the Background Sounds which can be activated and put on the control center through Accessibility and Audio Visual, and Background sounds. My wife turns this on every night to help her get to sleep.\n\n10/10!"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-3 review-rating', 'review_body': 'If you decide to purchase an older version of iPad.

I am not sure why some people are giving it 3 star reviews. This is the lowest priced iPad model you can buy and it now has a processor that really makes gaming and other things much faster.\n\nWhat is better than last years model (8th Gen)\n\nThis 9th Gen iPad now has a 12MP Front Facing Ultra Wide camera with 2x zoom and the new "Center Stage" feature. This is great for video calls as it tracks your movement and keeps you in the center of the frame. Now compared to the 1.2MP Camera on last years version!\n\nThe 9th Gen also has a faster processor running the neural processor system. I guess we will learn more about what that can do as more apps come out.\n\nYou can now get double the memory for the same price as last year. If you don\'t mess with a lot of photos then the 64GB version should be good for you. I tend to create a lot of videos and photos so I opted for the 256GB version.\n\nThe things that remain the same are the battery life and the screen resolution and quality.

Besides, my experience with the 1st apple pencil is incredible, there is practically no delay while writing, the screen size is excellent for taking notes and the palm rejection technology allows me to take notes fastly. The only downside is that there is a gap between the glass and the screen and you can see it while writing but its not a real issue, you get used to it. To conclude, if money is not a problem for you and you are a student willing to replace all your paper notebooks I recommend you to get the ipad air + 2nd generation combo but if you dont have 700$ to get it you wont regret buying the iPad 9th and not getting the better one.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'This is beyond what I expected.

My only complaint is that the adhisive strip to attach it to the tv only held for 2 day, and the cable is too short to reach the chest below my wall mounted set.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I had my Roku Express 4+ for 2 months. It worked like a charm. Good picture and sound on streaming. Then one day it started shutting off about every 30 minutes when not streaming. The streaming was still working. I called Roku support and they could not resolve it. I looked for the issue in the Roku documenation online without a solution. After changing the cables, ports, etc., the issue remained. I did a system factory reset too. So I just started checking all the Roku settings and found the power settings. Under settings/system/power, there is a power saving mode that shuts the Roku down every 20 minutes. I unchecked it and it resolved the issue. About the same time the power issue came up, the screen saver also turned off. I believe the firmware update for 10.5 reset these settings. Just wanted to share this information if others have the problem since it does not seem to be documented.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I am so incredibly impressed!!! I have an old, large samsung TV in my bedroom my dad got for free. I’ve had this tv with an older roku for years, it began not working right and began really laggy. I went out and bought a new smaller vizio tv, and it preformed terribly, I returned it in a day. I decided to try this roku on my old Samsung TV, all I have to say OMG. This made my TV preform like new and saved me a ton of money. If you are in a similar situation as me or looking for a great alternative, don’t hesitate, try this roku. It’s incredible for the money, the picture and quality is like a brand new, and it performs very fast. I am 21, and I don’t write reviews often, but I had to for this one.'}]

We put them away, but even if we just walk off for a minute she goes straight for it.

I do have a sharp and tcl roku tv and this remove works 100%!!! So 5 stars for a good replacement for the TVs.\n\nAs a shopped I get 1 star since obviously I messed up but since I have TVs that can use it (in case we ever lose those) I've decided to keep it.\n\nDont be like me - READ THE description! =)"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'This item didn’t come with instructions and I was worried about syncing without instructions. However, the remote worked immediately without even having to sync. I just pooped in the batteries and pressed power. No problem whatsoever to use with our Hisense Smart Roku TV.

No way was I paying that much for a remote. This one came at $10 or less and all I had to do was put batteries into it for it to work. No pairing or anything like that.

My best hope was that Roku made replacement remotes but it would need some sort of programming. It is literally as easy as putting batteries in it. I have never once perceived any difference between this and the original remote except that the shortcut buttons are different / updated / apps I actually use, so that's good too."}]
