worth it if you have a 4k & HDR TV

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have the Xbox onex and ps4 pro as well. The Xbox one X is a great investment if you have a tv that can support it. 4k & HDR games look incredible on this thing. I would recommend getting an external HDD as you will fill your drive up real quick with games (some are 100 GB). IMO both ps4 pro and xbox one x are close. Developers havent even come close to maxing this thing out yet.

incredible Speaker

Posted by: Ropadope

Verified Purchase:Yes
I was skeptical about spending 350 on a speaker this size. I was not sure if I would go with this Because I already had a Sonos one and Amazon Echo. I am also pretty tied to the Apple Ecosystem. I have to say this speaker sounds absolutely incredible. IMO better than the Sonos one and five. If you use apple music I highly recommend you check it out. Go to a store and hear it for yourself

Verified Purchase:Yes
Ive owned everything from Beats by dre studio headphones to these apple airpods. If you own one more apple devices, then I highly recommend these. The connection process is the simplest I have ever experienced. Switching between the device connect is as simple as opening the case next to the device you would like to connect. As for the comfort, you cant even feel them in you ear at all, which takes some getting used to. The audio quality is really good but to be honest I have heard a little better. So far these are my favorite headphones Ive ever purchased

There's seems to be a problem with the audio coming from optical cable. It was very choppy and is definitely not surround sound. I have had the PS golds as well and liked them much more

So This is my third Mac I've previously had and MacBook air and 2011 iMac. The price is a lot for a laptop, but I would also say it's not for the average user. I thought the touch bar was a gimmick, turns out I use it all the time!

Best phone in the market
on March 19, 2017
Posted by: Ropadope
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have had every iPhone says the iPhone 3G, and at first I was hesitant to upgrade to the iPhone 7, I thought the specs and features were too similar to the 6S. I was very surprised at the difference. The camera is much better as it can zoom and seeme to do much better in low light conditions. Theres also a significant difference in speed compared to the 6S... it seems just as fast as my iPad Pro which is incredible. If you're looking for a new phone you will not be disappointed and iPhone 7.

Good if you have a 4k hdr
on March 19, 2017
Posted by: Ropadope
Verified Purchase:Yes
I currently own this Nvidia shield, AppleTV 4, Roku Ultra and PlayStation 4 pro. I'll start off by saying I still find myself using the Apple TV all the time in this only in rare instances. If you have a 4K HDR TV (like me) I would probably recommend this.The nice thing about this shield is that it is extremely powerful and you can actually run Plex media server off the device ( this is the only set top box I know of that is capable of this). It also uses google play store, so you have access to the Kodi app, which is awesome.

nice upgrade from first generation
on February 26, 2017
Posted by: Ropadope
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this watch because my first generation Apple Watch was destroyed after I took a bath with it. With generation 2, water is no longer a problem and makes this watch more convienent as no worries about getting it wet. Another, upgrade that nice is the inclusion of GPS in the watch, so you don't have to have your iPhone to track movement. Lastly the screen is noticeably brighter than the first gen, which is nice is bright sun. I recommend this watch and am glad I upgraded rather than replace the first generation watch.

A no brained for anyone with 4K and/or HDR display
on November 16, 2016
Posted by: Ropadope
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have had the original PS4 since launch day and at the time was to totally content with its capabilities. Just last year purchased a 4K UHD tv and pretty bummed out my beloved PS4 could not support any of these features I just paid so much for. The PS4 Pro allows me to play the same games that I already own in much higher resolution I and colors depth. I could tell a vert significant improvement in Uncharted 4 and Tomb Raiider Origins. The frame rate was faster and more consistent, The image looked much sharper andn the HDR made the colors look SIGNIFICANTLY better, but not the kind of extreme improvement you see between console generations. If you are like me, and have spent a significant amount on a TV that is 4K and/or HDR supported the PS4 PRO is a no brainer. I am excited to see some upcoming releases that were developed for the new system rather than patched long after their release date. If you have or plan on upgrading your tv in the near future this consol will future proof you for the foreseeable future.

Hi everyone, I'm thinking of getting a PS4 but don't know if I should get the slim or the pro. I have 1080 resolution TVs. I'm leaning towards the pro. Will I notice a difference even on 1080 resolution TVs? I plan to get a UHD/4K tv in future

This is a no brainer if there is even the possibility of you upgrading you tv in the future and even if you don't. The developers can use the extra power however they see fit whether to thbat is 4K support, improved textures and/or frame rate improvements. As you can see in the screen shot I took from Tomb Raider There are 3 differnet graphical enhancements to choose from, and only one (in my opinion the least impressiv) requires a 4K tv. Also for you do decide to bite the bullet and upgrade one day it will be nice to have a console that can utalyze the technology you just spent so much on. In my option HDR makes a bigger difference than 4K
