If You've Got The PC For It, It Won't Disappoint
on November 30, 2017
Posted by: AndyJ
from Minneapolis, MN, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I needed to buy a new CPU, motherboard, and RAM to meet the requirements for this but I'm glad I did. My video card is still the bare minimum but I'm having fun with this so far. There is a lot of free software available so you can get used to VR without spending a lot upfront on games. The headset is pretty comfortable even when playing for an hour or more. You do need a fair amount of space to get the most out of this. I have a very small play area but I'm still having fun. If you get motion sickness easy then be careful. This is a solidly built piece of equipment. For the price I'd say it's a very good deal especially with the free games that come with it. If you've been on the fence about VR, this won't disappoint.

Stream your favorite TV shows and movies straight to your TV with the Roku Ultra. It has voice search to make finding your next binge easier, and it's compatible with 4K Ultra HD displays for crystal-clear picture quality. The Roku Ultra includes a lost remote finder so you never have to search the couch cushions again.

Much Better Than My Apple TV
on October 11, 2016
Posted by: AndyJ
Verified Purchase:Yes
I picked this up to finally replace my Apple TV. With this device I'm hoping that I can watch all my streaming with one device. The newest Apple TV still can't do Amazon Prime and my old Apple TV couldn't do Plex (streaming from my home media server). Plus the CW network now has an app that doesn't work on the old Apple TV. A big issue as new episodes on that network are no longer on Hulu. So, this Roku Ultra does it all for me. I no longer have to fire up Apple TV, a PS3, or an XBox based on what I'm watching. This doesn't appear to run hot like the old Roku 4 and there is no fan either so it is a lot quieter than the Roku 4 (that this model replaces). The only con I see so far is closed captioning on Roku is really poor compared to Apple TV (or other devices in general really). The captions are poorly placed, have black boxes all around them, and can't interpret things like apostrophes so it leaves a blank box where symbols like those should be. So my wife who uses captions all the time is a little disappointed. Other than that I have no complaints so far.

Good Product - Lasts a Long Time
on November 18, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
It's hard to screw up toner. But, HP printers and toner are my go to choice for my home printing needs. This lasts longer than you would expect. Make sure to shake the toner when it gives you low toner warning. You will get more print jobs than you expect if you keep doing that every time it warns you.

Great Compliment to My Vizio TV
on November 18, 2015
Posted by: AndyJ
Verified Purchase:Yes
I love my Vizio TV but the speakers on the thing are just not good. So I picked this up and it works great. My Vizio TV remote controls this thing as well. I can really hear the movies/shows better. Before I would wear headphones just so I didn't have to listen to muffled sounds. I don't have that issue any more.

Eight Hours Battery? I Don't Think So
on November 18, 2015
Posted by: AndyJ
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have small ears. These things are not made for people with small ears. They tend to fall out or come loose when I turn my head since they don't fit the greatest (I've tried all three ear canal holders they come with). I don't exercise so I can't comment on the sweatproof functions but I do use them for my morning train commute. I get 7 hours battery life at best, usually I get about 6.5. That's 20% less than the advertised battery life. Quite a difference. The sound is good and they pair easily enough with all my Bluetooth devices. However, for the price and what I use them for, I can't recommend. I should have returned them but I waited too long. Oh well, it's very expensive for what I will use them for.

Great Picture, Bare Bones Controls, Wonky Setup
on November 18, 2015
Posted by: AndyJ
Verified Purchase:Yes
I actually have two of these because I like the picture so much. This camera is insanely light-weight and the picture is really good. Not excellent, but better then the other DLink Pan and Tilt "HD" camera I bought. That one didn't look HD at all. It takes a little tweaking to get it properly configured for your wireless network and you have to sign up through Samsung. However, once I did I didn't have to go through Samsung's site to view the video as I have it hooked up to my NAS. Most people will probably use Samsung's app/site to view video. I would watch a setup video before you buy to see how you will be accessing the video. That way you can tell if it will work the way you want it to.

Poor Quality Compared to Others
on November 18, 2015
Posted by: AndyJ
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this to work with my NAS at home. I bought it primarily because you can control movement. I took it back because the picture quality just wasn't good. It says it has 720p but I bought another camera (Samsung) and that had 720p as well. The difference was night and day. The picture on this one was waaaay too grainy. I brought it back the next day exchanged it for the Samsung SmartCam HD Pro. That one didn't have movement, but the viewing angle was about the same and the picture was infinitely better.

Great Product - Poor Instructions
on November 18, 2015
Posted by: AndyJ
Verified Purchase:Yes
This works great once it is on. I didn't have BB install it for me since I didn't want to spend the extra money. The instructions are very confusing and referenced stuff that just wasn't true (indicators on which side to peel first for example). I recommend going online to YouTube and searching for a video on how to apply. That's what I did. Once on I was worried that the bubbles wouldn't flatten out. However, I waited a day like they recommend and they did indeed disappear. I can barely tell the protector is on there. I would buy this again.
