Surprised how easy it was to setup, but still had to call ISP to finish. Truly gig speeds, even for wireless, if hardware criteria is met and gigabit service is available.

This camera does exactly what I wanted. Wearing it on my wrist, it films my ice skating partner and I during our dances. With one push of a button it takes high quality film for studying later on a large monitor. Extremely easy to use pc software blends the two images seamlessly, allowing us to see from head to toepick and pattern placement. Great teaching tool.

Bought 6, replaced 1 defective drive.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Over the past 40 years WD has provided me reliable, fast and competitively priced drives. This batch of six drives contained 1 that formatted only 2.65 TB out of the advertised 4TB, so I returned it. Best Buy exchanged it gladly, and the replacement was fine.

These phones are top notch quality, comfortable, with a long lasting battery, long distance bluetooth range, and better noise reduction that my old wired Bose cans. Pairing is a breeze, and phone answering is too. My voice is clearer using the Bose mic than when I use the cell phone's mic. Doesn't make my hearing aids squeal either. Classical music sounds great again. Love 'em!

Simple setup. Works better with USB3.0. Solved a backup problem by providing an easy way to turn off drives, thus limiting exposure to local drive letters exploited by ransomeware .

Noisier, slow first copy,costs more than MFC9130CW
on September 23, 2016
Posted by: Jeff
Verified Purchase:Yes
My 2 yr. old Brother MFC 9130CW wore out, so I spent several hours comparing printers for my 3 small businesses. This model has more features but the paper tray and duplex function are too noisy for a quiet office, the startup power consumption is higher dimming the lights briefly, and the first page print time is longer than my old printer. Otherwise, it meets my needs nicely, especially the intuitive touch screen menus.

I bought 5 of these for a business. Four out of 5 were fast and flawless during initial setup, but one wouldn't turn on at all. The replacement process was quick, easy, and it worked fine. End users like them enough to comment about them so I'll recommend them to others.

You'll probably want/need to plug it into an optical port on your tv, and plan to buy a universal remote that is programmable via computer. (Unless you want another remote to fumble with.)

Feature-rich for the right price

Easy, intuitive setup. Just the right size for our smallish living room, sitting 10 feet away. Four-K resolution will be stunning if current res is any hint. Nice blacks and sports motion. You'll probably end up getting the matching soundbar and a universal remote, so expect to spend more for good sound and convenience.

Lenovo ThinkCentre M715q Desktop: The rugged and powerful ThinkCentre M700 Tiny can handle tough treatment, including dusty environments while boasting cutting edge features in an astonishingly compact form factor.
 

Can the hard drive be fitted with a larger one(1 TB)?also can Displayports work with a 4k monitor?,and for last question is this Windows 10 Home or Pro?

Yes, I swapped out the drive and put in an SSD drive. Any SATA 2.5" laptop drive will fit.

If your 4K monitor has an HDMI input port, a Displayport-HDMI dongle will provde a female end to connect your standard M-M HDMI cable to your tv/monitor.

Lenovo IdeaCentre 510A-15ABR Desktop: Work or play with your family on this Lenovo IdeaCentre desktop computer. Featuring an AMD 12 processor, this home workstation easily keeps up with multiple programs without crashing. With 1TB storage, the computer offers more than enough room for your files, and AMD Radeon graphics on this Lenovo IdeaCentre desktop computer offer a brilliant display for games or video streaming.
 

With the AMD Radeon R7 graphics, does this mean I do NOT need a graphics card for gaming?

You don't "need" a separate graphics for gaming. but a separate card will speed things up and make it prettier. I would try it "as is" and see if it works well enough before buying another graphics adapter.

Yes, but you have to call Verizon to unhook their modem from their system on their side. Took 10 minutes. Great results.
