Finally got one

Verified Purchase:Yes
I couldn't get one of these when it was originally released; but, thankfully Best Buy stores have received more around the holiday season. I believe the Amiibo is a Best Buy exclusive in the US and it makes a great gift, an awesome desk decoration for Zelda fans, or simply just an awesome addition to the collection of compulsive Amiibo buyers.

Works really well on a car
on December 31, 2017
Posted by: CAP01
from Denver, CO, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I mounted this on top of my car - on the sunroof, and it held well for a three hour drive at times going up to 75 MPH (45-55 MPH was average). The Samsung Gear 360 was mounted on it, and it mounted well with no custom modifications; so this mount will work with cameras using standard mounts.

Better than not having it
on December 31, 2017
Posted by: CAP01
from Denver, CO, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you have a pet that tends to run away, this is a must. I had the previous generation model, and recently purchased this one since it was on sale and it seemed smaller. In reality, it's almost the same size as the previous gen model; but, without the weird antennas on the side - so it's still a bit bulky if you have a small/med sized dog. With that said, I do find that the battery lasts longer and also charges quicker on this model. Now, for the important parts - for the device to work well, you should have decent WiFi coverage and live in a place where AT&T wireless gets a signal (the Whistle uses AT&T service) - having bad WiFi and poor AT&T service can mean draining the battery quicker. Alerts are not instant either, there's an alert when the dog is about 400 feet away (doesn't mean from the property; but, the boundary that was set) - if you have a fast dog, or the dog was picked up by someone the initial location can be inaccurate. I find that depending on where I am, the updated locations can be accurate or a bit delayed - thankfully I have only had to use the location features 3 times in the last 2 years. In rare occasions (and I mean rare), there will be no alerts - I have found this to usually be my fault - like being in airplane mode or do not disturb; so if at all possible, you do want to be aware if your pet ran off asap, and begin tracking asap. Overall, I am happy with Whistle, and it is better than nothing. The battery is already pretty good; but, in the next version I'd love to see an improved battery with a device that actually makes a sound to make it easier to locate the pet, notify people there's a lost dog on the run, and potentially scare off predators if needed. On one occasion I also had someone who thankfully picked up my dog ask what the device was, so people do notice it - it would be nice if Whistle offered customizations or small nameplates to put on the device with a phone number or maybe even info on going to a website and entering in a number or something.

Like the concept; wish cable quality was better
on November 17, 2017
Posted by: CAP01
from Denver, CO, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have another Platinum cable, that is over a year old by now, and it has a premium look and feel with a braided metal design. That is what I was expecting with this cable since the picture doesn’t clearly show the actual cable part, mainly just the connectors. The cable looks and feels like the standard white cable that Apple includes with all their devices. The actual connectors do look premium and are made of metal. What really makes this a cool cable is the LED that is built in around the Lightning connector - a simple touch of it turns on the LED for a few seconds. I don’t know about others; but, I still struggle connecting my iPhone or iPad into the Lightning port when it’s dark - yes, it’s easier than trying to plug in micro-USB; but, still a challenge. It’s a great cable to use at home, in the car, or when traveling. Thanks to the LED, it’s now super easy to do. I do wish Platinum would release one of their metallic cables with the LED built in and hopefully Best Buy will carry it.

Samsung microSDXC Cards Work Great

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have yet to have a Samsung memory card fail me, and I've used them skydiving, white water rafting, in a drone, and used in cameras or computers. This one is in a Samsung Gear 360, and works super well.

Safeguard your Galaxy Note8 during unexpected drops with this Samsung case. Its built-in kickstand lets you view digital media at optimal angles, and its rugged construction meets military specifications for drop resistance and shock absorption. This Samsung case preserves the slim profile of your device and doesn't add extra bulk.

Protects Phone and Useful
on October 8, 2017
Posted by: CAP01
from Denver, CO, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
This case actually does look nicer and more blue in-person; which I believe someone else mentioned in a review. It does as great job protecting the phone if dropped from pocket/waist height (I haven't dropped it from higher places), and the case is still in cosmetically great shape. The kickstand is also super useful, in the past I've avoided cases with kickstands due to not liking the design or because they're extra bulkier; but, with this case the kickstand is small and well hidden as part of the case. Yes, this case is a bit bulky; the design is ok though and it still fits in regular type pant pockets. The Note 8 does have a huge screen and this case does not have a large enough bezel, so if the phone falls and the screen hits the floor it might not be a good scenario, so maybe consider getting a screen protector as well.

Works Well

Verified Purchase:Yes
This adapter is super affordable and works well. I use it to connect my Surface Pro to a projector to teach a class and have never had issues. It streams video without issues and quality isn't bad; but, for those who do want it for video streaming or gaming perhaps consider a more premium dongle.

Pretty Good Price
on July 31, 2017
Posted by: CAP01
Verified Purchase:Yes
Being OEM propellers that are nicely packaged, one might think these cost more; but, at under $10 it is definitely worth purchasing these over cheaper online options. The local Best Buy always seems to have them in stock; but, I would strongly suggest purchasing 1-2 of these little boxes and carrying it in your drone pack.

Portable and Quick to Charge
on July 31, 2017
Posted by: CAP01
Verified Purchase:Yes
DJI really did an awesome job with this battery. It's not only small and portable; but, compared to other drones I've used, this Mavic battery charges fast and I do get the advertised 25 minutes of flight time out of it. I always carry the one battery on the Mavic, and two additional.

Works Great with Comcast
on July 21, 2017
Posted by: CAP01
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm not so sure how to review a modem - I just know it's faster than my previous ARRIS modem that lasted a long time; but, Comcast no longer officially supports. The 16x4 channel bonding makes a huge difference over the previous 8x4, even though both are DOCSIS 3.0. I also updated to a mesh wireless system, which seems to be an awesome combo with this modem since I tend to get over 120Mbps on downloads and 11Mbps on uploads.
