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.

Solely for my drone.

Verified Purchase:Yes
So, there's not much to say about the iPad mini 4 here. I've never really owned iOS devices before, not that I have anything against them. I just always preferred other things. Anyway, I bought this iPad solely for my DJI Spark, because many said it's best for the drone. So far, I have not been disappointed. I know iPad mini 4 is quite an older tablet, but it does its job well.
Also, I got it on the day it went on sale for $299. Can't complain!

Finally!!
on April 29, 2018
Posted by: CrankyMila
from Pensacola, FL.
Verified Purchase:Yes
So, I finally bit the bullet and bought myself a DJI Spark. I've wanted one for the longest time, but couldn't get myself to spend so much money for it. And then Mavic Air came one, so I once again got very excited and thought "this is it, I'm buying THE Air!"
Yeah, yeah, I know-- "but, you didn't buy the Air!" Yes, I indeed instead bought the Spark, for a couple of reasons.
1. The price. I realized that for the price of Air, I can get the Fly More combo deal of the Spark, so there.
2. I'm no photographer, or even an experienced flyer. Really, I should've bought something way cheaper for someone who needs practice! (So far, I'm doing well.)
My actual experience with the Spark:
**Setting up**
Upon opening the package, I excitedly unpacked everything and charged the batteries. By the time both batteries were fully charged, I followed some steps on Youtube on "before you fly your Spark" videos.
~ Pair the device with the RC. -Done-
~Turn on the Spark. -Done-
~Wait for "connected / Go Fly" sign. -Waiting...-
This took about 10 minutes before I realized nothing was happening. So, I go watch more Youtube videos. So many videos on how to fix this possible "issue" I was having, but none helped. I was getting frustrated and annoyed. I stumbled upon a DJI forum, typed my issue, found a topic similar to my problem, suggested to turn on Airplane mode. Then, just like that, I was connected! Oh, my excitement!
**Flying and controls**
~ Maneuvering with RC is very easy.
~ Joystick hurts my thumbs, but not too bad.
~I get about 15-16 minutes of fly time if I'm not messing around with the camera settings too much.
~ Videos and pictures are amazing. Not 4K amazing, but you get what I'm saying.
My experience hasn't been too bad, but for the price I paid, I can't believe I have to fly the drone on Airplane mode-- or otherwise have to mess with OTG cables. Four stars, because I wish I didn't have to do this. Otherwise, DJI has my support from here on, and maybe someday, I'll get one of those bigger and better drones that can lift a puppy! (lol, just kidding)

Great laptop.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I was quite hesitant purchasing this Dell laptop in the beginning, but I was not willing to spend more than $1,000 just for a traveling gaming PC.
So far, I haven't had any issues with my Dell. I've been able to play my usual games from my custom built high end PC, though in some cases in lower settings, but nothing too terrible. The fan can get quite loud, but I honestly didn't expect any less from a laptop. I monitor temperatures both at idle and full load, nothing alarming, but it sure gets pretty hot. Again, can't expect much less from a laptop.

I purchased this camera set because I've read and heard from friends that it's one of the best camera for the beginners. I've been having a ton of fun playing around with the settings, always taking my camera with me wherever I go. Having the bag and other accessories that came with it, definitely helps a ton and I saved money, which is always a thumbs up.
So far, I have no regrets with my purchase. My pictures come out great, and though I have tons of features still to explore, it's okay, because the more I learn, the better this camera gets.

I decided to cut off my Dish because I haven't been using it enough in the past year, but I still wanted to be able to keep up with my shows. Fire TV stick does exactly what I needed, minus the monthly fee. Hooking it up to my T.V couldn't have been easier, and setting it up to my Wi-Fi was just as easy.

This product isn't exactly the best out there, but I purchased it because not only was on it sale, I also got it price matched with Amazon, so overall, it's a win. The pad is smooth, and the pen is pretty accurate. I'm able to do my work just fine with this drawing tablet.

I've gotten so spoiled having my Echo dot that I needed to purchase another one for the living room. I love being able to ask Alexa to play music while I'm working around the house, if I need a quick weather update and my phone is nowhere to be found. lol

4K without breaking the wallet!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Oh my, where to begin with this TV.
It's a SmartTV, it's 4K, and it was on sale for $399, is simply amazing.
I've been seeing Hisense around for a while now. I've been so weary about it, because I've never heard of the brand before. I never paid much attention to it, because of this simple fact.
I'm an avid Youtube watcher, review reader, and I love to do extensive research on anything I'm purchasing. Hisense was never on my list, until I stumbled upon a Video for BitWit on YT. It amazed me how much this TV can do, for being one of the cheapest out there. Granted, his video is almost a year old, it still stands.
Once the TV is setup, and ready, the very first thing I did was play with settings (like with every electronics I own). I was very satisfied with how much I can do, settings wise. I also hooked up a PS4 to it to check out gaming mode, and I must say, though it's not the best, it certainly is doable.
Picture quality truly is 4K. I'm overall satisfied with this TV. I didn't think I'd be buying a 4K TV any time soon because of its rising price at the moment, but for this price, how could I pass that up?

I own a Canon Rebel XT for many years now. Can my Canon lenses from the older Rebel XT be used on the T6i?

I believe that as long as your Camera is within the EOS model, all lenses should be compatible with each other.

Does it print with a printer

This Ideapad has one USB port, so if you printer is without Wi-Fi, you should be able to connect it. Ours connected to the wifi printer easily, so we were able to print from it.

Keep your computer running smoothly with help from this Corsair Hydro Series liquid cooler, which works with select Intel® and AMD processors and features a 240mm radiator and dual 120mm fans to dissipate heat.
 

What is warranty. Bought last june 2016 and has gone bad. How do i get replacement

I would think that it has at least a one year warranty like most products. You might have to contact Corsair itself for a replacement.
