This TV is phenomenally better than the Vizio I had purchased before! I am so happy that I decided to exchange the products out because I still can't believe TV can look this good. I have been testing it out with Netflix 4K HDR and WOW. Night and day between this TV and the Vizio I had beforehand (the Vizio I had before was 43" 4k but did NOT include HDR). The only thing I did not like about the TV is that the remote is lagging and sometimes unresponsive, although I did not dock it a star because the picture is still amazing.

Get fantastic image quality and great sound with this 43-inch VIZIO SmartCast E-Series UHD home theater display. It has 10 active LED zones so that it delivers dark blacks and bright whites for incredible contrast. This VIZIO SmartCast E-Series UHD home theater display also includes Chromecast built-in, the easiest way to stream apps you know and love from your phone or tablet.

First and foremost, this is a great display with great quality. I have not had the chance to test out 4K using a 4K player/movies, however, with Netflix, it wasn't that great. I get 150Mbps/10Mbps with Comcast Internet and I was surprised that "Santa Clarita Diet" (which is supposed to be playing in UHD) was nowhere near the quality that Zootopia (plays in 1080). The SmartCast "remote" on your phone/tablet takes some getting used to. It's kind of annoying to have to open up the Netflix app and pause from there.

I'm not sure if it's my car, but this charger does not deliver 12w of power. I have the iPhone 6S and it doesn't charge as fast as the 10w Belkin charger that I have. The weird shape also makes it kind of hard for the charger to go in smoothly. Also, in order to get it to charge the phone you can't move the USB from the charger's side. Very finicky, but for the price you can't really go wrong.

This Pill is far superior to the original pill and it plays very well for a speaker in it's class. I can actually compare this to the $300 Bose SoundLink! The SoundLink is great if you want to listen to songs that aren't as bass heavy and the SoundLink distorts at higher volumes. This Pill+ handles higher volumes with ease and the bass is still pretty good! Didn't notice a loss in audio quality. If you bass in a "small" bluetooth speaker is your number one priority I would definitely look at JBL Xtreme (for $300). The Pill+ has no problem filling a large room with sound and is loud enough to drown out kitchen noises. My primary reason for getting this is to listen to music while cooking so it does a good job at being louder than the blender, food processor, etc.

These headphones are some of the best i've ever owned. They are as good as the noise cancelling version and they don't have the technology. They are very comfortable, however you do realize they're there.

If you're looking at this case you're in the market for a nice looking case. This case will probably NOT protect your phone from repeated falls or a decent sized drop to concrete. It is designed to look good and prevent surface scratches on the back. That's the reason I got this case. I'm not constantly dropping it and don't need a "tough" case (I recommend Speck MightyShell or OtterBox for that).

I'm writing this review about 3 hours into my first use. It's a great keyboard! You will feel right at home with this keyboard if you're coming from the standard Apple keyboard. It's wireless and includes the keypad on the right. Of course its standout feature is the solar panels it uses to charge it. I have an LED lit floor lamp about 1 foot away from desk and stands at about 3 feet from my keyboard and it gets a very VERY good charge from it. However, after I tested how well it charges i decided to cover up the solar panels to see how long it lasts running on just battery (which will never be the case because it also charges with the iMac's screen brightness). So far, after 3 hours, i'm still at 100% and it's receiving no charge. If you're on the brink, go for it. The keys are even more comfortable.

Don't get me wrong, this is a very good printer! I absolutely love it and I'm happy with my purchase! With that being said please don't go into this purchase thinking that you are going to get laser quality text or pictures. I was debating between this and Canon MG7250, but the black DPI were only 600x600 as opposed to this one being 4800x2400. I appreciate the quality of the black text and the picture quality is amazing! If you're thinking about this printer, get it.

I have tried out urBeats, PowerBeats, and PowerBeats2 Wireless. These beat out (no pun intended) Beats by a large margin!! These even have better bass!!! I was going to spring for the cheaper $100 regular headphones, but I sprang for these since I usually go heavy on the cardio (and we have 110 degree summers where I live). If you're on the fence between these and another pair, get these first!

ZAGG InvisibleShield HDX Screen Protector for Apple iPhone 6 or 6s: You don't have to lose the image clarity you love in order to shield your smartphone from harsh impacts and drops. Armed with strong components, including an extra shock absorption layer, this screen protector lets you worry less if your phone gets knocked around, while the glass-like surface ensures high-level image quality shines through.

I really enjoy having this screen protector on my phone because it feels as close to the screen as you can get. Of course you can still tell that it's there, but it's 99% clear (per Zaag's website) and I can confirm it's true. It doesn't seem like theres anything there until you touch the screen. My only complaint is that it seems to lift rather easily around the home button where the edges are so you have to be careful not to mess with that.

What's great about it: Not noticeable, case friendly, feels smooth
What's not so great: May lift easy around home button
