Outstanding Monitor for the price! (On Sale)
on July 2, 2017
Posted by: Chitown021
from Kansas City
Keep in mind my review is based on me getting this monitor on sale. Full price is $179.99, when I made my purchase the monitor was on sale for $109.99 (it's an average deal at full price compared to other models you could buy for that same money). Had I bought this at full price I would probably drop my review down to 3 Star:
PROS:
HDMI port
HD Display
HDMI cord in box
CONS:
Not 4K
Only one HDMI port
No height adjustment.
This monitor is a significant upgrade for me. Prior to buying this I had been using an 8 year old HP fl905 LCD monitor. This monitor give a bright, colorful display with easy hookup via HDMI. It's fairly light weight (much more so than my old HP monitor), had a sturdy base, and can be angled forward & back.
The height adjustment is a minor annoyance. It's setting level with my computer desk, and I'd like for it to be a bit higher, but I can live with it.

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.

GREAT CONSOLE!
on July 5, 2014
Posted by: Chitown021
from Kansas City
I've always been a Sony Playstation fan so this review might be a little biased. I've had my PS4 for about a month and I really enjoy it. The only game I've bought to this point is Madden 25. The graphics are excellent and the controls are really good.
It's disappointing that I can't play any of my old PS games on the new console. I've got a library of around 30 PS3 games that I can't use now.
My Best Buy number: 0416522875
What's great about it: Excellent Graphics, Nice Design
What's not so great: Price, Requires PSN+ subscription to play online multiplayer, not backwards compatible w/ PS2 or PS3 games.

GREAT FOR GALAXY TAB
on November 3, 2013
Posted by: Chitown021
from Kansas City
This seems like a great case for Galaxy Tab owners. The only problem was that I bought the Insignia Flex 10.1" tablet and this is not compatible with that device. I was looking for a keyboard/case combo and was told by the Best Buy associate that this would work. I think they assumed this would work with any 10" tablet but they do not have the same dimensions.

Great Budget Tablet
on November 3, 2013
Posted by: Chitown021
from Kansas City, MO
This is a great tablet for folks that are looking for a 10" screen that won't break the bank. I bought this when it was one sale as the Deal of the Day so it made it an even better value. My biggest complaint is that it doesn't seem like Insignia is going to support software updates so it's unlikely this will be upgraded beyond Android 4.1 leaving it now three versions behind (4.4 KitKat was just released by Google a couple days ago). Still for basic internet and e-mail usage this is a great tablet. A 10" screen at half the price other manufacturers charge.
My Best Buy number: 0416522875
What's great about it: 10" screen for the price of most 7" or 8" Tablets
What's not so great: Outdated OS (Android 4.1 JB), Not many accessories such as cases or keyboards.
I would recommend this to a friend!

GREAT ALTERNATIVE TO LANDLINE SERVICE
on April 13, 2013
Posted by: Chitown021
from Kansas City
I've been using this product for a couple years now and I couldn't be happier! I went from paying the phone company over $40 a month for basic phone service to just under $4! Well worth the initial upfront cost of this device.
The only drawback is that this is a VoIP phone so if you don't have a strong internet signal or bandwidth (calls can be spotty when several devices in our home are connected to the router) you can lose the signal.
What's great about it: LOW MONTHLY COST
What's not so great: NEED A STRONG INTERNET SERVICE

Excellent value for the money

I bought this device for $5 when it was on the DOTD list. For that price this item is a steal! It works great for charging my controllers. The only issue is that it can be somewhat difficult to get the controllers onto the stand. You have to line them up just right so they snap into the USB port and charge.

What's great about it: Charges up to four controllers at once
What's not so great: Can be a little difficult to get onto the stand at times

What can I say? It's a card for adding funds to your Sony account. Much more secure than putting your CC on file.

Why is sound so low?

I bought this for my wife's birthday last week and it's pretty good EXCEPT,
We have it at MAX volume and you have to put your ear on the speaker to hear anything. Is this normal?
We're taking it back if that's the best it can do.
NO, were not going to wear headphones just to use this thing.
I've had no issues with sound volume on my PS4. I have it connected to my 55" Samsung LED via HDMI and it works great. It gets loud very quickly. I have the volume at about "10" when playing Madden and it's plenty loud (I think the volume meter goes from 0-100).

External Keyboard Availibility?

Can an external keyboard be purchased to use with this tablet?
I bought the Logitech Tablet Keyboard for Windows and Android devices and it works great. I would think most Bluetooth keyboards would work with this tablet. I really would like to find a case/keyboard combo like they have for the Samsung or iPad tablets.
