SmartWatch for beginners.

Did some research before I purchased this smartwatch. I wanted to find one that would complement my Samsung S5. This does everything i need, texts, makes and answers calls, tracks and monitors healthy activities.
Only two Cons:
1.One charge lasts about 4 days.
2. The watch only came with one recharge cradle, should have come with two.
Can wait for the next generation watch!

A must for parents with teenage drivers.
Not only does this give you tracking information on location and driver habits but also vehicle information/status including gas consumption per trip. The app on the phone (android or apple) is handy, but can be annoying so make sure you do not select too many alert reports when you set it up. The Web applications is just as nice with more history information
Only one con; I thought that you would pay the $99 for the Zubie unit and the services would be included, but you need to sign up for $99/year charge for the service. A little steep!

Works with my old analog stereo receiver. Now I can connect wireless-ly to my tablet or android phone and stream music to my Hi wattage receiver. This device requires a USB power source which is easily obtained from an old phone charger.

Get professional-quality color documents with sharp black text-at a lower price than laser. Original HP inks deliver up to 50% lower color cost. Print impressive plain paper documents that resist water and fading, using pigment inks designed for the office. Archived documents retain black text and color quality for decades. Affordable, individual inks and a high-capacity black cartridge option offer a great value.

Brought this as an upgrade from a 7 year old Sony LCD 32".
Too bad there is nothing in-between a 32" and 40": a 37" would have sufficed for our needs and space. There are no Smart TVs or reputable brands that sell this size.
Nonetheless this certainly has features that the Sony did not.
Screen Mirroring works great with my Samsung Phone for showing the family my pic's and video of my to Glacier National Park.
We did experience some connectivity issues but this ended up being the ISP's fault. One this was corrected there has been no further issue.
The remote control is large or long so it takes some time to get used to all the buttons.
I have had the TV for two months and I am still adjusting the picture and sound. The picture setting for "Standard" is the Energy Star setting as well, so you will notice the picture change brightness during the course of viewing. This can be a little bothersome when you are trying to enjoy a show.

I also own a Samsung 55" 7 series which I enjoy immensely. But only after 6 months of owning it the power supply gave up the ghost! The TV is under warranty. Samsung did come out and service it. They did replace the power supply and also mentioned that the ribbon cable that goes from the power supply to the CPU needed to be replaced because of a manufacture defect of the cable connections.
Fingers crossed for no further issues with either TV.

I brought a pair of these M7 wireless speakers that came bundled with a Hub and Galaxy Tab 4-7".
This was a nice bundle that Best Buy put together and offered at a great price (saved over $100) (no, I don't not work for BB either).
This was a nice bundle that Best Buy put together and offered at a great price (saved over $100) (no, I don't not work for BB either).
I still have not been able to get the Hub to connect both speakers. I researched this on line and others have a similar experience.
Nonetheless I use one of the speakers on the patio with the Galaxy Tab 4 for listening and streaming music.
It works great, when it works, but intermittently either the speaker looses connectivity or the Tab 4 looses connection.
Granted I have a weak ISP. Once I reset the modem/router all seems to be working better for now.
The sound is pretty good for streaming audio. Very easy to connect to other Samsung devices and non Samsung devises such as iPhone and iPad.

The speaker does get a little warm with usage, I would imagine the power supply is working pretty hard in there. One other con is the power cord is too short. It should have been double the length currently 60" I think 10 foot cord would suffice most installs.
I have a pair of Bose outdoor speakers that I use from time to time. They are not wireless, but I can leave them outside without worrying of them getting ruined in the weather. Wish Samsung comes out with something like this but Wireless.

what is the largest wrist size?
I have 8 inch wrists would this watch fit on the last notch?
I have a 7 " wrist and this band fits comfortably. There is only one more notch at the 7" setting to go larger. So you might get another ~1/2" extra.

Anyone else have sound issues?
I have had my tv since Black Friday. I love the picture but I am having issues with the sound. I have to put the tv up to 100 (which is the max) to be able to hear what's going on. Even at 100 it's not loud enough. Could I be doing something wrong? It's my biggest complaint.
You have to consider the source. Cable or over the air transmission?
Does the sound level seem the same between the two inputs?
Do you have Smart Sound turned on in the configuration?
