I can use this on Xbox or Windows Store digital purchases as long as I'm signing in with the same account on Windows as I use on Xbox. Works very easily.

Love it. Charges my tablet very fast, about 3 hours from <20% to a full 100% charge. That's how long it takes using the AC adapter. Also used it to charge my phone and tablet at the same time today for the first time. Obviously the speed of charging is going to be slower when charging two (or even three) devices at the same time. My phone was at 5% battery and the tablet was at 26%. In about an hour and a half the phone was up to 51% and the tablet was at 61%. This is still very impressive and would highly recommend this to anyone. If you are a person who likes to take your gadgets with you anywhere from "occasionally" to "often", you should really own one of these. The battery inside of this device could easily charge my phone and tablet twice over (and maybe even more) before it needs to be recharged.
In case you're wondering, my phone is a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and my tablet is an Asus ZenPad S Z580C. Both of these devices have significant battery life, therefore require more time to charge.

No-frills 65" TV that does what its intended to do
on January 6, 2015
Posted by: Humanity
from Wichita, KS
This TV is not a Samsung, so I'm not going to discredit this TV based on any comparisons to a Samsung. Samsung TVs generally have high-end video processors, therefore even a 480i signal would look fairly clean.
However, this was a $799 TV when I bought it 4 months ago. The closest-priced Samsung 65" was $1499. Common sense would tell you that you get what you pay for, and I don't necessarily mean that in a negative way. It's just common sense.
I have not had any malfunctions with my TV. Everything has worked exactly the way it should. If I had to purchase another 65" TV and only had $800-$900 available, I wouldn't hesitate to buy this one again.
Pros:
-Speakers are actually better than expected. I can hear everything clearly #however, see my comment in "Cons"#
-1080p content looks incredible, as this is the screen's native resolution. This goes for video games too, as long as you're console is set to 1080p
-Extremely affordable big-screen TV
-120Hz smoothness that has virtually no lag when playing video games
-Remote control is simple and easy to use
-USB input does work for pictures and videos, however I could never get sound to play on mp4 files. AVI files work just fine with sound and video

-USB input does work for pictures and videos, however I could never get sound to play on mp4 files. AVI files work just fine with sound and video
Cons:
-The speakers are nowhere near sound-bar or surround quality
-720p looks decent; 1080i is fair due to weak de-interlacing
-120Hz looks good, but during movies, the movement of the camera is occasionally too fast and the video processor can't always keep up, therefore the picture will be blurry for a fraction of a second #literally, just a fraction of a second#
-Only 2 HDMI inputs, but I bought a cheap 5-port HDMI switch to solve this issue

Verdict:
I am overall very happy with this TV due to the money I saved and it performs well with the content I use it for. I can watch a movie just fine with the smooth motion #120Hz# on and am not bothered by it's limitations. However, it can be turned off if you prefer. The blurriness does not happen during video games, therefore it does not affect any fast-action gameplay when the 120Hz is active and it makes the video games look exceptionally good.

The video processor is not top-of-the-line by any means, but for how cheap it probably is, it does an impressive job.
Color is surprisingly good. Contrast is neither great or terrible. Blacks certainly aren't amazing. However, for example: I was watching a movie #1080p, of course# showing a setting in day-light with a beautiful tree in bloom, and the pink bulbs looked so fantastic, I couldn't help but get a little excited with how amazing the colors just popped out.
I'm still giving it 5 stars because, again, I didn't expect this to perform like something state-of-the-art. It performs very well for the purposes I intended to use it for.

Bought this TV over a year ago to go in my kitchen. Before I mounted it to the wall, I used it to play a little Xbox first and it looked amazing. Then I mounted it to the wall with a full-motion bracket. I use this in the kitchen all the time now. I'm generally a casual TV viewer, but it's nice having something to watch/listen to while I'm making dinner. Also, my 18 month old daughter likes hanging around me while I'm in the kitchen, so I'll plop her in her high chair and she'll watch Mickey Mouse on the TV while I cook. Unfortunately, as much as my wife loves TV, this new TV in the kitchen still hasn't convinced her to take up more interest in cooking.
BTW: This TV would make a great PC display as well, as it has a VGA input, plus it has 2 HDMI inputs, which is pretty rare for a 19" TV

Best price I could find AND it works perfectly
on June 17, 2014
Posted by: Humanity
from Wichita, KS
I found this on bestbuy.com at an amazing low price. I had a feeling that because of the incredibly low price, it would be flimsy and cheap feeling. But because the price was so low, I figured I would take a chance.
When I received this in the mail, I couldn't believe it was made out of very sturdy and solid metal. It mounted to my wall very easily. Same goes for the TV, I bought a 19" Insignia and it mounted incredibly easy to the wall-mount. Works great in my kitchen. No matter where I'm standing, I can turn the TV to face me from any position. Even better is that the arm has two pivots: One at the base #near the wall# and one on the TV mount #basically on the back of the TV#.

If you want dry clothes, then look no further

If you simply need to dry your clothes, then this dryer is, quite simply, all you need. Lint basket works great, my clothes are lint-free. There is no loud, annoying buzzer (thank God), but there is no sound at all, so if you don't have a good timer in your head, you might want to set a timer on your smartphone to remind you. Otherwise, this thing works great, and it's perfect for people on a budget.

This versatile 6-speed hand mixer features a Quick Burst button for convenience and includes traditional beaters, wire beaters and a whisk. The snap-on storage case helps keep attachments organized, and the brushed stainless-steel housing coordinates with many kitchen interiors.

This was a gift for my wife. She loves it, much better than her cheap-o mixer that broke down simply because it had barely any power. Therefore any time it was used to mix, it was a lot of stress on the motor. That wimpy thing was living on borrowed time.
But this Hamilton Beach mixer is amazing. Don't settle for cheap, budget-priced mixers. This brand is worth the extra few bucks.
Last note: My mother has a hand mixer that she bought when I was a small child (I'm now 33 yrs old). It's the only mixer she owns, and she said it still works great up to this day. When I asked her what brand it was, she said she didn't know. So she goes to get it out of her cabinet, shows it to me, and sure enough, the side of the mixer reads "Hamilton Beach"

Amazing sound, mic is the best i've ever heard
on June 7, 2014
Posted by: Humanity
from Wichita, KS
I love this headset because the sound is amazing, even with voice communications. The volume controls work perfectly, even the bass control is a nice touch.
The only gripe is that the cords are slightly overwhelming, as I hate having cords strung out across the room, but at least the cords are VERY long, so these should work even in large rooms. I myself am very a/v savvy, but I could see some people potentially having trouble with the initial setup of the cords and plug-ins. Some TV's (especially older ones) might need some tweaking as well. I know this because I have an older HDTV CRT rear projection, and while my TV has MANY options and possibilities, it took a little trial and error using certain options in the TV's menus.

I read numerous reviews before buying this tablet. There were a lot of people stating that it was just as good as an iPad mini. It isn't. When comparing it side by side to an iPad mini 2, it was slower executing applications. I used this tables on a united flight with a wireless network that streamed movies. The tablet struggled to playback a movie. I pulled out my iPhone 6 and streamed the same movie. My iPhone had no issues streaming the movie and overall it outperformed this tablet. As soon as I get back home I am returning this tablet and getting an iPad mini 4.

Perhaps the display resolution comes into play
January 28, 2016
I've been on airline flights before that offer either wifi service or video streaming service. I'm not 100% sure on this, but I would dare to guess that the iPhone 6 app for this "said streaming service" is streamed at a lesser resolution because most previous iterations of the iPhone (1-5, essentially) had lesser resolution capabilities. Therefore perhaps it streamed just fine on the iPhone because it wasn't set at a high resolution. And perhaps the Android version app DID have the capability of adjusting resolution options because Android is less restrictive with options and features than iOS, therefore perhaps the tablet was trying to pull the highest resolution possible. If this were found to be true, I would highly expect the high-resolution video to be choppy and have lag issues because any type of Wi-Fi or streaming service on an airplane is usually spotty at best.
I mention all of this because I just bought this tablet last night, and holy cow! It streamed 1080p beautifully. I don't seem to have any issues with latency either (loading apps quickly).

Is the game included?
No, the game is not included. It comes with a collector's edition steel case, but there is no physical game disc inside, you still need to purchase the game separately. To further clarify, it does not come with a code for the digital copy of the game either, in case that wasn't clear.

Use of an external HDD, powered separately with the Micro USB via OTG cable?
Can I use the Micro USB port as a normal 2.0 usb port with a OTG cable, specifically can this work for a self powered HDD connected via 2.0?
Yes, it still puts out a voltage when it's not being charged, so in short, you can plug a portable HDD into the micro USB port and it will work just fine.
