Full Home WiFi

Verified Purchase:Yes
No dead spots. set these up right and you'll have great wifi throughout your entire house. One caveat is that each node/point needs to be closer together than I would have thoughts. About 2 rooms the recommend. I was shocked to learn that I would need 3 in my 1400sq/ft apartment, but once I added the third it was glorious strong wifi everywhere!

Solid sequel - but still a sequel

Love this movie - but still suffers the pitfalls of a sequel. But if you are a fan of the first, you need this in your collection as anyone you show the first movie too will want to watch his right away.

Great online play - solo play varies
on March 26, 2018
Posted by: Geekrocker
from Los Angeles, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
The game is at it's best when you party up with a few friends. But based on your gameplay style, playing alone could be rather tiresome or hard - i love ranged weapons while in my party, but can't really use them when playing solos to great effect - annoying because I'd like to play solo with the same weapons/style i play with my friends, but the design just doesn't allow for that. meeting with friends i harder than it should be too. but this game has it's moments!

Google Home Mini is a smart speaker powered by the Google Assistant, so you can ask it questions and tell it to do things. Just start with "Ok Google" to enjoy your entertainment, get answers from Google, tackle your day, and control your smart home. Google Home Mini works on its own or you can have a few around the house, giving you the power of Google anywhere."

"Alexa, integrate with google services."
on February 9, 2018
Posted by: Geekrocker
from Los Angeles, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Even if you are heavily invested in the Echo ecosystem, I still think a google home mini is a must have smart home piece of kit for those who use google services and products like YouTube, Photos, PlayMusic, chromecast, android phone, etc. The Google Home integrates well with existing google hardware/software, providing unique features the Alexa just doesn't touch. It's a great purchase for $50, and a great way to make your home smart home, or add a little bit of additional smart home functionality to a room already has an Alexa.

Best option if you need/want a white controller
on February 9, 2018
Posted by: Geekrocker
from Los Angeles, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
The standard Xbox One controller is great, but after gaming on the Xbox One Elite for so long, it feels lacking. However, I needed a white controller for an all-white setup (on a budget) and this is your only option in town without going into custom (more expensive) options. If you need white, and have the money to spend, maybe look into a custom elite controller, but otherwise, this is the second best gamepad on the market today, in white.

The 61W USB-C Power Adapter offers fast, efficient charging at home, in the office, or on the go. While this power adapter is compatible with any USB-C-enabled device, Apple recommends pairing it with your 13-inch MacBook Pro with Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports for optimal charging performance. USB-C Charge Cable sold separately.

Don't forget a cable

Verified Purchase:Yes
Was shocked to learn this piece does not come with a USB-C to USB-C cable. Be sure to get one with this purchase. It's a horrible value, but the peace of mind you get with first-party products is worth it.

An expensive Necessity

from Los Angeles, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I wish this was cheaper, or at the very least the 3rd party options were higher quality - but when dealing with power into your $1500+ investment, don't mess around, get the first party option so you can know your Apple Care/Warranty won't be denied

Low tech, decent design
on December 1, 2017
Posted by: Geekrocker
from Los Angeles, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Was pretty disappointed in this watch. I had a first gen Moto 360 and loved it until the Bluetooth died. I thought this would a nice upgrade, but in many ways, it feels like a stylish upgrade with a technical downgrade. The SoC and other components are all improved, but other elements like the screen and glass are just very cheap and feel/look low quality. I got this on a Cyber Monday deal for about $150 total - so it makes my disappointment easier to swallow, but beware and maybe check it out in-store before buying to make sure this fits your needs and you can live with the material and screen quality.

What is Echo Amazon Echo is a hands-free speaker you control with your voice.

All you have to do is ask.Echo is also an expertly tuned speaker that can fill any room with immersive sound. It has seven microphones and beamforming technology so it can hear you from across the room-even while music is playing. When you want to use Echo, just say the wake word "Alexa" and Echo responds instantly.

Great Cost for the Features
on December 1, 2017
Posted by: Geekrocker
from Los Angeles, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Most people will get the Echo Dot and then complain about the microphones or sound quality - the Dot is a great way to introduce yourself to the Alexa ecosystem, but it pales in comparison to its big brother. The biggest different (beyond the sound quality) is the microphones. The Dot only has 2, which does not cancel out excess noise or hear individuals very well. This version has a full away of 8, better able to hear you across the room and cancel out any noise to hear you better. If you are done experimenting and want to really utilize Alexa in the proper fasion - get this Echo!

Can I download my Xbox One games onto this?

Christmas is coming so will I be able to download the new games i get directly onto this external hard drive? I have about 89% of my console's storage used so would i be able to use this?
YES! I have a similar drive attached to my Xbox One and it works great! You simply plug the drive into the side USB port on your Xbox One, the system will recognize a HDD has been plugged in and ask if you will want to use it for game storage. it will prompt you to format the drive. Keep in mind, that if you format the drive, all data will be erased. In addition, once formatted you CAN NOT use the drive on another computer to store/transfer files. It is locked to an Xbox One unless you format it again, which will delete all your Xbox One games/data.

Best to purchase this and leave hooked up to the Xbox One.
