Tried them all

I am in the apple ecosystem and have the new Apple TV which is a great streaming device. I tried Amazon Fire stick and returned it because I thought the software was horrible. Picked up the new Roku stick and really like it. It is quick, set up was easy, and the app/channel selection is really great. There are some apps not on Apple TV that are on Roku and vice versa. It's not perfect, but neither are any of them. If you aren't in either the Apple or Amazon ecosystems, then get the Roku. I haven't had any issues with it and it is cheaper than any other Roku box and it is very portable. With the app you can listen privately with wired and blue tooth headphones.

iPad mini 4 has a gorgeous 7.9-inch Retina display, yet it's only 6.1mm thin and weighs just 0.65 pounds, making it small enough to hold in one hand. It has a powerful A8 chip with 64-bit desktop-class architecture, advanced iSight and FaceTime HD cameras, Wi-Fi and LTE connectivity, iCloud, the breakthrough Touch ID fingerprint sensor, and up to 10 hours of battery life. It also includes great apps for productivity and creativity, and powerful new features in iOS 9 like multitasking. And there are even more incredible apps available in the App Store.

Worthy upgrade from mini 2

Upgraded from the iPad mini 2 and have to say this was worth it. Thinner, lighter, and more clear display. It's faster as well. Recommend to anyone looking for their first iPad and to those wondering if they should upgrade.

MacBook Air features fifth-generation Intel Core processors with stunning graphics, all-day battery life*, ultrafast flash storage, and great built-in apps. It's thin, light and durable enough to take everywhere you go — and powerful enough to do everything once you get there.

Another great apple product
on April 26, 2015
Posted by: BPG71
from Cary, Nc
I have most apple products, not because I am a diehard fan but because I just like things that work well. The MacBook Air is no different. It works flawlessly, fast, stable, and looks nice. I have an iMac and wanted the mobility of a laptop, but not really needing the MacBook Pro power or price. It doesn't have the specs like some windows laptops have, but it just works and works well. That's all that matters in the end.

The PS4 is a graphical powerhouse, able to deliver massive game worlds with impressive clarity and detail. 8GB of RAM allows for serious multitasking potential, complementing the great apps and features that make up the PS4 experience.The PlayStation brand of consoles has an impressive history of delivering world-class exclusive games, and the trend is sure to continue with the PS4. The growing blockbuster catalog is backed by a library of free-to-play and indie games, giving you flexibility in how you pay and play.The PS4 also acts as a social hub, with several built-in features that take advantage of the social networks you're already using. The controller's Share button opens up a world of video sharing, with the option to stream your gameplay live or record it to edit and post later.PlayStation Vita owners will enjoy the connectivity that ties the two devices together, from Remote Play, which allows you to play your PS4 games on your Vita's screen over a local Wi-Fi network, to Cross-Buy, which allows you to purchase a game digitally only once and play it on both your PS4 and your Vita.All PS4 consoles will need a firmware update and must be connected to the Internet to complete the update. While your console will not always need to be connected to the Internet, a one-time connection is required for the update.Online multiplayer requires a paid PlayStation Plus membership. Some features require a broadband Internet connection; ISP fees apply.PS3 games, controllers and some accessories are not compatible with the PS4.

Very good console
on November 20, 2013
Posted by: BPG71
from Cary, Nc
The PS4 is a great gaming console. It is much better than the PS3 which was great as well. I am still getting used to the new menu system. It is like the PS3 but different at the same time. I think there are a few too many steps to be able to do certain things, but the speed of it makes it ok. Graphics are really good, the controller is nice as well. It has a speaker on it and also comes with headphones. Setting up was pretty easy and the quality of the system seems sturdy. If you are a PS3 user and enjoy it, then upgrading to the PS4 will be for you. If you are an Xbox fan, then I say either take a chance on something new or stick with the Xbox one. I have both PS3 and 360 and always felt the PS3 was the superior console. Remote play with the Ps Vita is great. If I want to go lay down in bed and still play my PS4 games then I can do that now with the remote play feature. I think with future updates and more games coming out, I think this will be the system to get. Verry pleased with it.
What's great about it: graphics, speed, controler
What's not so great: getting used to the menu

iPad® Air is 20 percent thinner1 and weighs just one pound, so it feels unbelievably light in your hand. It comes with a 9.7-inch Retina display, the A7 chip with M7 motion coprocessor, ultrafast wireless, powerful apps, and up to 10 hours of battery life.2 And over 475,000 apps in the App Store are just a tap away.3

Awesome tablet
on November 3, 2013
Posted by: BPG71
from Cary, Nc
This tablet is amazing. I traded in my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 for this. I loved the note and all that it could do, but after getting this, I don't even know why I didn't buy an IPad in the first place. Everything, and I mean everything, just works flawlessly on it. It is super fast especially surfing the web, the screen is excellent, the apps for the tablet are just awesome. It is nice and light so holding it never gets tiring. The sound is great, the battery life is really really good. I have been using it heavily for 2 days now watching videos and Netflix, surfing the web, emails, playing games. I haven't charged it yet . It was at 93% when I got it and it is at 24% as I type this. I really recommend this to anyone who wants a first Ike tablet to people looking to upgrade their existing one. If you really love apple products, you won't be disappointed in this, and if you are an android fan looking to switch, I can tell you from experience, everything just works so much better.

It just works

Phone size:Just right
Had an Iphone 3GS for 3 1/2 years and decided to give android a try. Bought the Galaxy S3 which is an awesome phone, but after a year decided to get the Iphone 5s. After having the phone for almost a week , I have to say, I now realize what it is about IOS that makes people stay. It just works. Everything just works with ease. I do miss some of the features of the S3 like the bigger screen, the multi windows and of course the customizing. But I know for me personally I will stick with the Iphone for the reliability. Android is great and I still have a tablet for it, but for me an Iphone is just better.
What's great about it: Ease of use, Siri, build quality
What's not so great: Lack of customizing

Can I use my Bluetooth headset with the remote app installed on my cell.

Yes you can, I have Bose wireless headphones and work fine with the app on iPhone.
