Brilliant laptop - Highly Recommended
on September 5, 2016
Posted by: teasten
Verified Purchase:Yes
Starting with the obvious, this doesn't have an Intel i-Series processor, but don't let that fool you. The SSD means this laptop runs Windows 10 super smoothly. The Lenovo - Yoga 710 is one of the only true 11" laptops that Best Buy sells e.g. it's actually 11" and slim and light weight. Only limitation is the 4GB of memory cannot be expanded. The SSD is able to be replaced should you need more storage. Definitely recommended.

Good watch, Plastic Case Prone to Scratches
on September 5, 2016
Posted by: teasten
Verified Purchase:Yes
I am a fan of Pebble (own a Pebble Steel). This is a good update. The color screen adds some utility to certain apps (weather, calendar). The screen does seem washed out in direct sunlight vs the black and white steel screen. Best feature is that Pebble is device agnostic. So you can use it with IOS and Android, which is awesome. The battery lasts forever and love that it's waterproof. Would recommend this for people who need a smartwatch and have an active job or lifestyle as aside from the case scratches, this watch does take a beating and lasts several days on a single charge.

Love this mouse! Bargain - you will be impressed
on September 5, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
I got this on sale and had low expectations as normally I am a Logitech fan. Have to say I am super impressed. Bluetooth connectivity is flawless, it's perfect for ultrabook/portable use. The blue-light system works on glass and I am so impressed with the mouse I want to buy another one even though I have no need for it.

Runs Hot, Not Readily Serviceable
on September 5, 2016
Posted by: teasten
Verified Purchase:Yes
I really had high hopes for the HP - Pavilion 2-in-1, but was left disappointed. The laptop runs extremely hot, as in, it's not comfortable to have this on your lap - unless you're using this in the Arctic or the depths of winter. I really can't stress how hot this runs. There are some reviews on line that mentioned this but I thought they were exaggerating - but they are not. HP have also made this machine not easily user serviceable. To replace the hard drive or expand memory you need to removed glued-on rubber feet that if you break or damage cost over $100 to replace. The screen also has a huge border which makes the laptop screen feel larger than 11". Not recommended.

Returned, Major Limitations - Read On
on August 7, 2016
Posted by: teasten
Verified Purchase:Yes
Such a promising laptop - lightweight, Windows 10, Office 2016 and Lenovo products are usually good. Unfortunately, the 32GB SSD is a MAJOR limitation on this device as it means you can't install the Windows 10 anniversary update. So you miss security updates. Even if you reset to factory defaults, you can't get enough space. And you can't upgrade the SSD and windows won't recognize a USB or SD card for updates. So sadly had to return this. If Lenovo made this with a 128GB (or even 64GB) SSD this would almost be perfect. Lenovo - if you're listening, I am ready to buy when you upgrade this model. With a bigger SSD this laptop could have been a replacement for a Microsoft Surface.

Meet the 2nd generation Nest Mini, the smart speaker you control with your voice. Just say "Hey Google" to play songs from Spotify, YouTube Music, and more.* Music sounds bigger and richer. Ask your Google Assistant about the weather, news, or almost anything. Hear your personalized schedule, current weather conditions, and reminders.** Set timers and alarms. And control your compatible smart devices.***
would this be worth it to get for routines, power strips and lights? or eh just stick to app control for those?
Meet the second-gen Nest Hub from Google,* the center of your helpful home. Stay entertained in the kitchen with shows, videos, and music. In the living room, control your compatible lights, TVs, and other smart devices with a tap or your voice. And in the bedroom, Nest Hub can help you wake up easier with a Sunrise Alarm.
What are the improvements over the first generation hub?
It has better sound, is faster, and also has something called Soli so you can use gestures to mute it and it can monitor your sleep. There's still no camera.

How often does the filter need to be changed and what is the operating cost for the year?
I don't know about running costs, but the filters are rated for 1 year with normal use. Although replacement filters are relatively expensive.
