All You'll Ever Need!

Verified Purchase:Yes
After buying literally 4 or 5 different powerbanks for my Galaxy S9+, my search is finally over, Although I've never heard of this company, this product is brilliant! Just 3 specifics I want to highlight:
1) The built-in USB-C cable surprisingly DOES "Fast-Charge" my S9+
2) The size (and especially weight) are nothing compared to other powerbanks. I can wrap my fingers around it when holding it and have no problem fitting it in my pocket.
3) It supports Pass-Thru charging. Go look up what that is if you don't know, but it's definitely a perk!
VERDICT: Albeit pricey, still an absolute buy!

Google Home Mini is a smart speaker powered by the Google Assistant, so you can ask it questions and tell it to do things.

Google Home Mini works on its own or you can have a few around the house, giving you the power of Google anywhere."

Akin to Amazon Echo, but supports Google devices

Works as expected. It's akin to Amazon Echo in functionality. The major difference (other than aesthetics) is the programs it supports vs. Amazon's Echo.
Personally, I am a fan and subscriber of 'Google Music', which Amazon Echo doesn't support. Naturally, Google Home DOES support it.
Ultimately, just look at which apps each device will support and buy the hub that will be more compatible with your other devices. Otherwise, I've found it no better or worse than Amazon Echo.

Simply put, they are functional batteries. They don't burn out quicker (or last any longer) than high end brand name.

He's gone to dangerous lengths to reclaim justice for the fallen. He's delivered revenge where it was rightly deserved. Since the inception of the revolutionary Ninja Gaiden series, one masked warrior has stood head and shoulders above the rest. The quest to lift the deadly curse on his right arm calls to Ryu Hayabusa — and it forces him to look deeper than ever into the dark, complex soul beneath his mask. Wherein lies the boundary between the warrior and the man? Only you can decide as you wield the Dragon Sword and choose between mercy and revenge in the improved Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge.Experience Ninja Gaiden 3 in even more intense, high-speed and challenging ways — on the Wii U. Sharpen the Dragon Sword, fine-tune your skills and immerse yourself in the all-new, highly evolved story that continues the Ninja Gaiden saga with even more weapons and Ninpo, a new character progression system, a redesigned battle system and the return of dismemberment. You can still count on meeting your opponent face-to-face in extremely intensified close-combat gameplay — now with six weapon types and three Ninpo types exclusive to Wii U. Wield the sword and experience the feeling of slicing through your enemies' flesh and bone with more fluidity thanks to the touch screen of the Wii U GamePad controller. Now on the Wii U, the female ninja, Ayane, will step into the fray with her own set of exclusive chapters, weapon types and Ninpo as she unleashes her brutality upon her enemies. The world is full of complex dangers, but deep behind Ryu Hayabusa's disguise, you'll discover that the soul of a hero harbors even darker secrets.

Good, but not great. Fun nonetheless.

I'd read excellent reviews about the game, but they unfortunately fell slightly short when playing it. Most everything about the game is awesome (graphics, skills learned, etc That is, except for the camera angle.
I can't exactly explain it, but the camera angles are not user-friendly. As you change directions, you need to reorient your view, which makes fighting enemies in a 360 world difficult. Maybe I'm just doing something wrong, but that is my only gripe. Everything else is great and it's still worth a go.

Not all HDMI cables are created equal
on November 13, 2016
Posted by: DCG83
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'd read so many articles in the past that every HDMI 2.0 cable is the same, perhaps with thicker coating on the outside, but ultimately capable of the same things. Man, was I wrong...
I bought a new 4K TV and Xbox One S for the 4k player. I'd bought a "4k capable no-name brand" hdmi off amazon. When playing 4k movies, the playback was choppy. I thought it was the Xbox, but when I brought it to BB, they tested it with a different HDMI cable and boom! Beautiful quality;
I wasn't happy to pay $30 for a cable, but it is no doubt superior to other HDMI cables, especially if you're trying to watch something in 4k.

Personally, I always get the protection plan, especially with a laptop. Thankfully, Mac's are built pretty solid, but nonetheless, any laptop is more prone to having hardware wear and tear sooner than a desktop. The individual parts for a laptop are more expensive than you'd think.

Would this be a good cable for the Xbox One S? I need a 4K, 60hz, 10 bit HDR ready cable. If not, can someone recommend one?

Yes, absolutely. I similarly have an Xbox One S and a TV with the same features. I tinkered around with other "4k-capable" HDMI cables, but this one actually gave me the 4k quality that was promised. Good luck!
