I had a hard time deciding between this one or the $99 with less features. I decided for the extra $49 lets give it a try. Glad I did. They are fantastic. You won't regret it.
The app is very user friendly. The charge lasts a pretty decent long time. As long as you charge it when you're away everything will be amazing.
The 7.1 is incredible.

Because they’re precision crafted for iPhone 7 Plus, these cases fit snugly over the curves of your iPhone without adding bulk. They’re made from specially tanned and finished European leather, so the outside feels soft to the touch and develops a natural patina over time. On the inside, a microfiber lining helps protect your iPhone. And the metallic button covers match the finish of your iPhone.

iPhone 8 Plus charges a lot faster with this & battery lasts much longer. I mean this is the kind of charger MacBooks use.

Very happy with my purchase. I played Horizon Zero Dawn & just beautiful.
Fantastic for Gaming. Won numerous online team matches on platform, PS4 Pro. Literally from 4pm-7:50pm. Win streak on multiple matches.
HDR looks epic.
I really enjoy the Magic Remote & LG’s TV OS. It’s very user friendly. There is even a voice option if you need it. I connected my set top box to the magic remote with no problem.
Watching Star Trek Discovery as I write this review. So awesome.
Absolutely beautiful picture.
Definitely recommend.
I haven’t hung mine up yet. So right now it’s just on stand. It’s SUPER thin too.

Throw away your extra remotes in favor of the Logitech Harmony 665 remote control. This functional remote works with a range of devices, from basic cable to Apple TV, and can combine up to 10 remotes in one versatile unit. This Logitech Harmony 665 remote control offers one-button setup for easy incorporation with your entertainment system.
 

I realize this is supposed to work with Apple TV, but does it replicate the home button of the Apple TV Siri remote? I've tried several IR remotes and none of them allow for use of the 'home button' functionality of the original apple remote.

Yes I just verified for you. I pressed Devices on my Harmony 665. I pressed Apple TV 4K. Home showed up on the color screen as one of the options. If you don't want to do that I also have pressed menu too to utilize that button.

Does this pair with PS 4 or Xbox One?

Hello to answer this question. Sony won't allow it any 3rd party remote manufacturer to do that. I did get it to turn on Xbox One X, DVR, & TV to watch TV through One Guide. It will work with watch tv activity for Xbox One X.

Make immersive, high-resolution audio an integral part of your entertainment with this Sonos Playbar soundbar. Bluetooth connectivity streams your favorite playlist wirelessly from your smart device, while automatic tuning ensures rich, detailed sound anywhere in the room. This Sonos Playbar soundbar lets you connect speakers in different rooms over Wi-Fi.
 

I lose the sound at times after I mute, pause, skip or fast forward. In order to get sound again I have to change channels, then go back to my original program. This happens with live tv as,well as recorded programs. Any suggestions will be appreciated

Lora, I have a LG tv. I’ve experienced this when I purchased an Apple TV 4K & went from optical to ARC. Turn off tv. Unplug all devices. I would recommend to go to your tv’s settings. Reset tv to initial settings. If you have a media streaming box device. (“Apple TV or Roku) Hook that to HDMI 1. Rehook all devices. Reinstall apps.


This should stop that from ever happening again. You could also attempt to reset Playbar after resetting tv too.


Should fix this issue.

Are you planning to add DTS support anytime soon?

“For home entertainment, DTS content is only found on physical media such as DVD, Blu-ray and Laserdisc – no video streaming services such as Netflix or Hulu support DTS. Sonos is focused on modern listeners who predominantly stream and because most physical discs encode DTS at bitrates substantially similar to Dolby Digital, we have decided to not support DTS on PLAYBASE as we don’t believe it offers a better listening experience for the majority of owners."

Should help answer that question.

Is there hardware available to mount the sound bar on a shelf above my rolling TV cart that has a TV mounted on the cart...the shelf has 2 pre drilled slots for mounting or does the optional mounting brackets allow the soundbar to be mounted above TV

Hello,

The optional mounting bracket for Playbar states on its website on their site that it can be mounted horizontally above or below the tv on the wall. Retails for $39.99.

I wouldn’t mount it to the shelf above the cart. I would mount horizontally above the tv via the wall.

Hope this helps.

Orbi™ by NETGEAR® is the simplest and smartest way to enjoy high-speed Wi-Fi in every corner of your home. The Orbi Wi-Fi System Starter covers homes up to 2,000 square feet with strong Wi-Fi signals. Add an Orbi Satellite (sold separately) to expand the system an additional 2,000 square feet. Enjoy better Wi-Fi. Everywhere.
 

Has anyone tried to use this for gaming? I currently have the NETGEAR - AC1200 Dual-Band Wireless-AC Range Extender and while it has improved my speed, it disconnects once every hour, on the hour for some unknown reason. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Ben,

I use it for gaming. I just have the Orbi router too. I've had it since February on a 300MBP/S Spectrum connection. Connected to a Motorola Arris Modem. Upstairs when I do a speed test it says 359mbps. I use PS4 Pro on it. Hope this helps! I would recommend it. The range is epic. I've experienced ZERO drop of signal. Hasn't happened at all.
