Moto G5 Plus
on May 20, 2018
Posted by: sleeper692
from Portland, OR, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a great phone especially at its current price (and getting cheaper as the Moto 6 release approaches!). As with any Android phone, it was easy to set up and all my personal data and apps transferred over without a hitch. The phone is fairly responsive. The screen is bright and clear. The phone is a nice size and quite light. I'm definitely a fan of Moto phones ever since the first Moto X came out and this phone just confirms that for me. Most importantly, the Moto G5 Plus is as close to stock Android as you will find outside of Pixel phones. There is zero bloatware. The phone is unlocked so I can use it wherever I want (which happens to be a low cost MVNO). This phone is definitely a good buy.

A more comfortable cardboard plus
on November 3, 2017
Posted by: sleeper692
from Portland, OR, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is the Daydream version 1.0. Its a nice headset. I love the fabric on the outer shell. The headset is reasonably comfortable to wear. I like how the software and hardware work together to center the stereo images so there is no fussing with getting the exact placement of my phone in the headset.
While this headset is nice enough, the Daydream software is basically Cardboard with a remote and a nicer headset. Daydream is a nice way to experience VR but it isn't a match for PC or console powered VR such as Oculus Rift. My phone inevitably gets too hot after a few minutes of VR. The software often lags which quickly becomes frustrating.

Wow....awesome movie
on April 9, 2017
Posted by: sleeper692
Verified Purchase:Yes
I am inclined to like anything Benedict Cumberbatch is in and this movie did not disappoint. They keep to the Marvel cannon (mostly). The visuals are awesome especially in 3D!
If you're a comic fan you won't be disappointed by this movie.

Fly your GoPro drone confidently with these Karma propellers. Their design makes these propellers highly efficient, giving you smoother, quieter flight than standard propellers. Use this pack of two clockwise and two counterclockwise Karma propellers as a replacement kit for your Karma drone, and install them easily with the color-coded guide.

The second accesory every drone owner buys!

I always have extra props for my Karma. It would be a waste to ruin the entire flight over one busted prop.

Keep your GoPro Karma in the air with this extra battery. One charge provides up to 20 minutes of use, letting you extend flight time.

A must have for Karma owners
on April 9, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
The battery only gives you a max of 20 minutes flight time so having a second battery for the Karma is a no-brainer.

Take aerial shots with this GoPro Karma drone. Its Karma Stabilizer lets the included HERO5 Black action camera capture shake-free videos, while the Karma Grip provides reliable stabilization for handheld and mounted filming. The game-style controller with an integrated touch display makes Karma easy and fun to fly.Fly Responsibly:Before takeoff, update all software and firmware, and read the instructions thoroughly.See the FAA website for registration requirements and information about flying a drone safely: https://www.faa.gov/uas/getting_started/.

A great drone for GoPro enthusiasts!
on April 9, 2017
Posted by: sleeper692
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a solid drone that came with a GoPro Hero5 Black. The gimbal system is exceptional! There is absolutely no camera movement when stopping the drones flight whereas other drones don't keep the camera level when they pitch up to slow and stop.
This drone is amazingly quiet. My dog is usually wary and keeps his distance from other drones. Karma was so much quieter he barely noticed it flying near him.
It comes with a stick on which you can mount the gimbal for very nice hand held photos and video. I certainly can't argue with the GoPro Hero 5 Black video quality. I've been using it in 4K and the video is really nice!
The Karma's controller has its own integrated screen so there is no messing around with pairing and syncing up a phone to the drone and controller.
The only drawback with this drone is the flight time. I have averaged only 18 to 19 minutes per battery charge. While that is enough for my purposes most days (with an extra battery, of course) it would be nice to have the flight time of my 3DR Solo which gives me almost 30 minutes of flight on one charge.
This is a solid drone aimed at GoPro enthusiasts but it certainly works for the typical hobbyist.
I do wish they made prop guards for the Karma. I'm looking for a 3D print file to make my own if need be.

Outfit your home office with this Studio Designs Ashwood convertible desk. A computer screen fits comfortably on top of the desk, and its sliding keyboard shelf hides when not in use. The powder-coated steel frame on this Studio Designs Ashwood convertible desk provides increased strength and longevity, and the rear crossbar and floor levelers give it optimal stability.

Nice little desk for the price
on April 9, 2017
Posted by: sleeper692
Verified Purchase:Yes
This desk looks great and quite solid. There are shelves that attach to the metal legs on each side of the desk. I put my shelves at the top to give me more desktop. This isn't a huge desk but its just fine for a monitor and a few gaming accessories. This is a pretty good value for the price.

I love this movie especially in 4K!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm a science fiction fan and this movie really caught my attention. I jumped at the chance to pick up the 4K BD. I've seen this movie a couple of times but it never looked so good as the movie on this disc. I highly recommend this 4K version of Oblivian.

What great bookshelf speakers!
on February 13, 2017
Posted by: sleeper692
Verified Purchase:Yes
I picked up a pair of these when I found them in an open box deal. I hooked them up to my second tv with a nice Yamaha receiver and I was instantly blown away at the sound quality. Nice, bright highs, clean mid-range and nice bass without distortion (I have a woofer with a low end crossover hooked up as well). The upward blasting radiator really helps the sound open up with these speakers. They work very well for watching tv and casual music listening.

4K HDR ROCKS!
on February 8, 2017
Posted by: sleeper692
Verified Purchase:Yes
I got this player to go with a new receiver and 4K HDR tv. I put a movie in last night and I was blown away at the depth and color that comes out with an HDR system. There isn't much to say beyond best picture ever!
The BD player is solid and looks great. I love the curved front. Player and remote are easy to use. It works just like any other BD player except the output is 4K HDR. Keep in mind you need a 4K HDR capable tv to enjoy this player to its fullest.

I see this upscales Blu-Ray (1080) to UHD, but wIll this upscale 480i DVD's to 1080 or UHD?

It upscales anything not 4K. It will upscale 480 but it can't fill in the missing detail. It still gives a nice picture but it is still a 480 source. My tv also upscales so it is a little difficult to tell which machine is doing the best upscaling. Personally, other than 1080 HD tv programming, I don't rely on upscaling much. GIGO still applies.
