The thinnest iPad ever is also the most capable. It's loaded with advanced technologies, including the Touch ID fingerprint sensor.

Nice upgrade on many counts

I upgraded to this version from the 3rd gen iPad. This new version is a nice bump on many counts. It's smaller, lighter, offers the 128gb option,and finally offers the fingerprint sensor. It's also runs faster. I've omly 2 gripes. First if you are with Verizon the carrier isn't playing with Apples new soft sim so you have to get a sim swap but Best Buy handled it on the spot vs the Apple Store which sent my Mother to the Verizon store. Secondly I wish there was a bit more flexibility with multitasking. Neither felt like a huge deal so leaving at 5 stars.

Nice sound but not so much in noisy environments

These headphones inherently have very nice sound as you might expect for the brand. Quality in a quiet room is very good. However, they don't isolate you much from external sound so they aren't so good in an airplane. They are best suited for running as they are basically targeted as they let in a fair amount of outside noise so you can hear traffic and alike.

Impressive Tech but pricey

I've been rather pleased with my pair of Nest thermostats. Its not been long enough to do an energy analysis but they seem to be at least nudging the energy use a bit. Its very interesting to look at its reports both online and on the phone. Its also quite handy to be able to adjust the temp when going away and when landing at the airport.
That said they are pretty expensive - a little hard to justify.
I also miss having the clock like my old 'smart' thermostat had.

August HomeKit Bluetooth Deadbolt Retrofit Smart Lock: Transform your smartphone into a key for your door using this smart lock, which works with the downloadable August app. Create time-sensitive virtual keys for your most trusted guests, and track usage from wherever you are.
 

What is the difference between the "August - Smart Lock Bluetooth Keyless Home Entry" and the "August - HomeKit Bluetooth Deadbolt Retrofit Smart Lock"? I can't seem to see a difference from the descriptions.

In theory this look is supposed to work with Siri so you can tell Siri to unlock the lock or check the lock status. In practice it does work but erratically.
