Feels a bit slower than the 3, and lip synch issue

Verified Purchase:Yes
So this looks nice, and has pretty good looking interface that is noticeably superior to my other Roku. It feels a little slower, and, especially with Netflix, the lip synch is just a bit off. It's slowly driving me crazy.

Make foolproof waffles with this Cuisinart Belgian waffle maker. The vertical shape takes up less counter space, and the brushed stainless steel finish is easy to clean. Pour in batter through built-in spout for consistent thickness. Five browning levels, ready-eat indicator light and audible alert make breakfast a snap with this Cuisinart Belgian waffle maker.

Makes great waffles, but a bit messy...

Verified Purchase:Yes
The design is unique and space saving. I am probably doing something wrong, but batter leaks from the bottom. If the batter is thicker, it doesn't go all the way through. Once I get it right, I'm sure I'll love it. For now, I have to psych myself up to go through the trouble and the post waffle-making cleanup.

GREAT TV - POOR CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE
on February 1, 2016
Posted by: Montyfull
from Macon, GA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I hate to leave negative feedback for a customer service experience, which includes such positive feedback for the product I am reviewing. That said, I really think it is fair to say that if I could return my purchase based on that experience (and buy it somewhere else (even at greater cost)), I would.
Customer Service Review
The actual purchase experience was OK. I had a hard time figuring out if I would be able to fit the TV in my car (after driving about 3 hours out of my way once I located it two days before Christmas). The customer associate in the store was very polite and was able to offer basic information, but was unable to answer more advanced questions. I would otherwise be OK with that, however, he did not even try to find the answers, nor did he ask anyone else. He did retrieve the TV from the storeroom for me so that I could see the box. When I asked for a tape measure, I was told, on the spot, that there was not one available. I used a makeshift tape measure, and when another associate saw me struggling, one magically materialized. I then asked to be able to take the tape measure out to my car to verify the dimensions; I was not allowed to, even though my car was right outside the door. Needless to say, it fit, and the two people (one of whom was the second sales associate who was able to get me a tape measure in the first place (but not the one who actually sold me the TV)) who helped me get it into my car were phenomenal. The original sales associate could not be bothered after the sale.
The other problem I had was the price match guarantee, which, for me, as an elite member, should have been extended through January 30, 2016. The TV is currently being offered at a SIGNIFICANTLY lower price than what I paid. Now, I understand that prices change all the time, and I understand that sometimes that works out in my favor, but I was denied a price adjustment within the time frame allowed given my status. That's a huge error in customer service that I cannot tolerate.
Product Review - The Television
That said, the TV is gorgeous. It was a gift, and all in all, I am very happy that I had it in time to give for Christmas. It set up very easily on the included stand (with two people - I can't emphasize that enough - it really does take at least two people to set up). Straight from the box, the settings were quite good. I was concerned about the screen issues that several people have described with their new sets. Ours, fortunately, did not have that problem. After some adjustments with a Blu-ray disc designed to optimize the viewing experience, the picture is nearly flawless, and 3-D is spectacular (and that is an understatement). I'm not usually impressed with the definition of televisions. In fact, I find it difficult to tell the difference among various resolutions, even when on display side by side. I truly can say that this TV offers the best display I have experienced, and that is, again, straight from the box with high definition media, not even 4K, which, honestly, I have yet to see on the TV (it's not mine - although I really wish it were). Additionally, the clarity of high speed action (including real-time game broadcasting through a big name cable company) is unmatched. I've never before seen a game without, at least, moderate pix-elation.
So, there you have it...If asked if I would recommend this item to a friend, I would say, "Absolutely, yes"! I would not (and will not (EVER AGAIN)), however, recommend purchasing anything from Best Buy.

Functions well with a great value

This tripod is a great value. It's a nice strong tripod with good, basic functionality that does what you expect. It's easy to extend and collapse. One problem is the fact that it is pretty bulky when it's fully collapsed.

Ideal for use with desktop performance towers, all-in-one computers, consumer-grade NAS devices or desktop RAID arrays, this Seagate internal hard drive features a 1TB capacity, so you can store plenty of digital files.

This has great space, and seems to be reliable. It installed very easily, and has not given me a lick of trouble. I think it runs a bit louder than I'm used to, but that's not terrible in and of itself.

what is the maximum viewing angle
This was a huge concern for me as I was debating between flat and curved screens. I decided on the flat screen because, in the store, the viewing angle seemed a bit larger. Where this TV is located there are seats along most angles from 90 degrees (straight on viewing) to about 160 degrees (practically viewing from the side). Now, while I am not saying that this is an ideal viewing angle, it is more than acceptable, even when viewing 3-D content. I would say that anything more than 160 would be distracting. 90-140 degrees seems ideal.

Does my iPhone connect with this tv
Do,I need a Samsung phone to get the features for send it to,the tv
Yes...Samsung phones interact with this TV beautifully; iPhones, unfortunately, do not interact with this TV without additional products to facilitate the interface. Again, the interaction between this TV and, specifically, the Samsung Galaxy 6 (edge) is quite impressive.
