Professional Appearance, Gaming Power, Lightweight

This laptop rocks! I've had gaming laptops, convertibles, ultra books, and run of the mill laptops. This is the perfect balance between them all and sacrifices very little to achieve that. I use it for work, school, and gaming. Fits easily in my backpack and the power adapter is reasonably sized too. I've used it for games like The Division, Star Citizen, and Total War on some very demanding settings. It looks great too, just be wary of fingerprints as it sucks the oil out of your hands. If using in a public or office environment, you'll probably want to mess around with the fan settings because while they do a pretty good job at minimizing throttling from high temps, they can be obnoxiously loud. That's probably fine for the user if they have on headphones, but not so much for everyone around you, especially if ambient noise is low. Yes, it's a chunk of money, but comparatively speaking, it's a better buy than the competition unless you are stuck on a very particular functionality that an alternative in that price range has.

It's not as meaningful of a move as your typical Pixar/Disney animated flick, but it really is funny and has a lot of re-playability. If you have little ones, that's very important! Not sure if there's a 4K version, but HD is probably as good as you need for this one.

Somehow Big Hero 6 wasn't in my collection so my wife grabbed the HD version (don't think there is a 4K version). The entire family absolutely loves this movie and it's a go to for our toddler. We even put the digital copy on his tablet for road trips. One of the best animated family movies out there.

Great story, beautiful imagery and colors

Coco is pretty amazing, but maybe not really engaging for little kids. The story is deep, and it's just so pretty to look at and listen to, but it bores the snot out of my youngest who is normally glued to Disney animated movies from the the 1990's forward. As for 4K versus HD, absolutely spend a little more to get the 4K version (even though it's apparently up-scaled from 2K) if you are going to buy this. It's one of the rare movies where HDR is more than just a sales gimmick.

It's okay...

I really enjoyed the first Pacific Rim, but without Guillermo del Toro being very involved, the follow up lost a lot. While the visuals/effects are still top notch in many ways, and some of the actors and actresses are engaging, it feels more like one of the recent Transformers movies than the original Pacific Rim (that's not a compliment). I felt the scale and immensity of the everything in the first movie, but there are only a few scenes where I got the same sense in this one despite them trying to go larger. The director even states he wanted to make the Jeagers faster. Anyhow, if it's on a really good sale, maybe worth a pickup, but there are better choices out there.

Mid level tech, but great for the price

Used to having flagship phones, but my wife opted to go with something less expensive so we set a limit of $300, but targeted $200. Also had to be unlocked and compatible with the major carriers. Anyhow, the camera is mediocre and screen is no where as crisp as the other, much more expensive, phones we've owned, but she's been really happy with it. I doubt Asus is making much in the way of profit on this phone given the materials cost compared to sell price, so the bang for the buck is really good. If you don't need the latest and greatest (and who are we kidding, most of us don't really use our smart phones in a way that can justify $500 to 1000), this is a great price point and gives you the flexibility to jump onto any network (it's even dual sim). Heck, you'll probably pay almost as much in insurance over two years on a flagship phone as you would to buy this one outright. Just food for though.

Keeps the Razor Clean

My facial skin can get pretty irritated from shaving, and having the blades auto cleaned eliminates one more potential irritant. It isn't clear if the product is recyclable. There's a triangle on the product, but doesn't look like the typical recycle symbol.

Adventurous, Exciting, Fun, and a Little Silly

You can tell the crew had a lot of fun making this movie and that carries over to a lot of smiles for the audience. The first time I watched it, I think I wanted something slightly more serious, but it's grown on me a lot. My kid loves it too, so it's a mainstay for movie night Also the visuals are fantastic, so recommend grabbing it in 4K.

Nice, Durable Cable

It's a USB cable with an aesthetically pleasing sheathing. I only bought it because of reduced price as most, less expensive, plainer USB cables would have done the job just as well.

Visual Feast, Fun, Somewhat Disappointing Story
on April 20, 2018
Posted by: Paul

Verified Purchase:Yes
It's Star Wars through and through, but it doesn't do some of our favorite characters and story arcs much justice. I was let down by the Director's choices that seemed to purposely diminish or disregard some fantastic characters, both old and new. But it is still a fun movie with fantastic visuals and audio that should offset some of its failings. If I had the option, I would give it 3.5 stars instead of 4 out of 5.
