Nice Tablet, AWFUL COREL SOFTWARE
on June 13, 2018

Verified Purchase:Yes
Tablet is a nice size for my 10 year-old, and works nicely. The bundled Corel Painter Essentials 6 software, however, has be a royal pain. It refused to be activated - keeps insisting the serial number (provided by Wacom upon registration) is invalid. Contacted Corel support, and have not heard back in 2 weeks after they supposedly "escalated" it to L2 support. Totally ruins the good experience from the tablet itself. Will be returning this if I don't get a working solution shortly.

Works like a champ and leaves no footprint. Hate the user interface compared to Apple TV though. The remote can't turn my tv on either. So I need two remotes.

Exchanged the Netgear orbi for this because I wasn't getting good speed out of the orbi. This was cheaper and worked better. Looks better too. Unfortunately my bedroom is still getting only half the broadband speed coming into my house. Need to figure out where to place the satellite unit. Rest of house is super.

took it to the forest for a field trip... zzzz... not much better than my D7000. then took it to a volleyball match - OMG! the speed and accuracy of the focus and the color and clarity of EVERY SINGLE SHOT out of 178 shots just blew me away! Never have I imagined that I could be getting 100% keepers (technical-wise) shooting at 1/800 f/4 indoors. Color saturation, white balance (used fluorescent), flicker compensation, all worked great. Only thing that stinks (a little) is that my older non-AF-S (but constant F/2.8 and f/1.8) and newer slower than F/4 lenses can't make full use of the 99 cross sensors, so I got the kit lens and plan to get a f/4 or f/2.8 70-200 some day. 4K video looks decent on my 4K OLED TV - I haven't spent much time messing with video. I sweated over the decision to buy this for a very long time - life is truly too short to miss out on something so fun and capable. (oh, it's pretty big and heavy for a DX rig).

Simple, effective, cheaper than other options

Verified Purchase:Yes
Works great so far and costs less than plug in or in wall smart switches. HomeKit integration is very nice and easy. Wish they made a wall switch that worked better at replacing existing ones by fitting nicely into the wall plates. Especially multi gang plates. Sticking an extra switch on the wall is ugly. I have so many switches to replace where a hue solution could be used. I installed lutron caseta for the fixtures that don't use bulbs - like integrated LED or outdoor lamps. Lutron can do the trick for almost all switches but is more work and costs more. In the end, it adds up to a lot of money just to turn lights on automatically or from Siri or Alexa. But it's fun.

So easy to install and so easy to set up to work with HomeKit alongside philips hue. Looking forward to trying it out with Alexa. Only downside is the cost is high. Well over $250 for 4 switches and a hub. Ouch.

Not a very deep plot, but enough action and decent acting to make this a movie I could watch repeatedly. Not as good as Sicario, but heckuva lot better than The Revenant. one of those "no thinking required" movies (which I happen to like)

Best Purchase in my life so far!!

So much better range of colors made possible by OLED and consistent image from any angle. Even regular tv from antenna looks more awesome. Wish there were more apps though. Make sure to get the 4k HDR blu Ray player to get the best picture. Netflix content way better than Amazon prime for 4K. Haven't tried vudu yet because there's little choice. YouTube 4K doesn't appear to support HDR. 4K is nice but it's the OLED with HDR that really makes the difference, especially Dolby vision HDR. Hdr10 somehow can get overly bright - perhaps due to non-frame-based HDR data.

I upgraded my Comcast Internet speed to Gigabit but am still having in-home wifi bandwidth problems. my Comcast rep says it's due to the others in my apt complex and the interference from their networks. Will this help my bandwidth or interference?
Google wifi is too slow for gigabit broadband. Even the top end orbi may not be fast enough to get full speed. Hardwiring is likely the best solution.

Would a regular memory card work with this camera or does it have to be a QXD card only. Anyone have experience with what regular memory card works better than others.
works fine with SD cards - I shot several sporting events with high speed continuous (cH) to JPEG no problems. I think if you plan to shoot RAW with 300 continuous frames then you need the XQD card.

This Philips Hue White starter kit has space for up to 50 lights and 10 accessories to connect your entire home.
Can the bulbs be programmed to progressively become brighter at a certain time? For instance, if we wanted to use them as "wake up" lights, could they gradually brighten over the course of 10-15 minutes?
They have wakeup and sleep scenes in the app that do that. And you can choose over how much time to fade in or or out. Up to an hour.

If you buy the starter kit - white only you only have white light and no color? You have to buy the color bulb to get the color you want? The white bulbs do not change colors correct?
Correct. The color bulb costs a lot more.

What does OLED Stand for? Is this the newest 4K Ulta HD Smart TV with HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE TV? What's the difference between this and the former top TV? Is it worth the $2K difference in price? Thanks
Yes it is worth difference in price - if you appreciate the picture quality. If you can't tell the difference, of course it's not worth it. Nothing else comes close to OLED after I've had it for the last month.

The LG website states there is only a digital optical audio output. There is no headphone output either. Can anyone clarify what audio outputs are actually available on the B6?
There are no analog audio outputs. All digital.

Any difference between this the 65B6P and the 65EF9500? From what ive read. The only difference is that the ef9500 only supports hdr10 and this supports both hdr10 and dolby vision. Any other differences? Oh and ef9500 has web os 2.0 and this has 3.0
I have the b6 version and the Dolby vision on Netflix is visibly superior. Worth the price difference if you can swing it

How do I get proper upscaling when connected to a Sony Bravia 4K TV?
I have the new Samsung 4K Ultra HD player and a Sony Bravia 4K TV. I expected the "upscaling" of 1080p Blu-rays to be noticeably better, but the image is not better. In fact, it's worse than my regular Blu-ray player's image. I have the right HDMI cable, my Bravia manual says all the HDMI outlets on the TV are 4K capable, yet movement is fuzzy and the image is far less crisp than my old player created. What am I doing wrong? I've tried all the settings to no avail.
I suspect when you leave the video output (TV size) to "auto" it may output at 1080p, but when you force it to 2160 (or whatever the highest is), it seems to upscale it. I have been playing with it back and forth and I do think it upscales when you force it to the highest setting. my old blu rays look amazing on this player and my 4K OLED. Not sure if it's the OLED, but I'm sure the 4K has some effect,
