Very good iPad case
on September 15, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
Very good iPad protective case. Good looking, relatively light weight and easy to install the iPad mini in it. Practical lock that keeps the iPad shut and prevents it from opening accidentally. Best point: it permits to flip the iPad in order to use it either in a portrait or landscape standing position.

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.

iPad - need I say more?
on September 15, 2017
Posted by: Dirk
from Troy, MI
Verified Purchase:Yes
Not much to say about this product. I really love the iPad mini, it is much more convenient for traveling than the standard sized iPads, but still has a big enough image and a good resolution. I bought a matte screen cover as I use the iPad to read books (using kindle), and it looks perfect (I had a Fire 8 before, but the iPad mini is much better).
Best of all: I bought my iPad mini during the BestBuy anniversary, and got it for 279$ instead of the usual 399$.

Star Wars at its best
on April 14, 2017
Posted by: Dirk
Verified Purchase:Yes
For those who haven't watched this movie yet - watch it! It is absolutely great, perhaps even better than The Force Awakens. An absolutely worthy extension to the existing Star Wars movies, and a good piece of information that finally explains why it was so "easy" to blow up the Death Star ;-) .

iMac features a gorgeous widescreen display, powerful Intel® processors, superfast graphics, and more. All in a stunningly thin enclosure that's only 5 mm thin at its edge.
Posted by: Dirk
Verified Purchase:Yes
Nothing much to say. I am an "Apple guy" since more than 10 years now, and this iMac is just another perfect product from them. In fact, it replaces my old iMac, which has broken after more than 8 years of service, being on almost 24/7, as I am using it as a sort of server for my home network (8 years in this condition is, in my opinion, an impressive result). As for the new one, it is more beautiful, faster, with more memory... The only downside is that it doesn't come with a DVD superdrive anymore - you have to use an external one.
Overall, a no-brainer, does exactly what I expected, and as it was in promotion, I am even more happy about it.

Everything ok
on December 26, 2016
Posted by: Dirk
Verified Purchase:Yes
Very good TV, especially considering that I bought it during Black Friday for 700US$! It doesn't have HDR, but anyway the image is very good with my standard BluRay discs. I mainly bought this TV for gaming, and it is very good for this purpose. Overall, a very good purchase, especially considering the price.

Nice soundbar to complete a curved TV
on November 11, 2016
Posted by: Dirk
Verified Purchase:Yes
Very nicely designed soundbar that goes perfectly with a curved TV (like my Samsung 65" 4K curved TV). It also connects wirelessly to the TV, and once set up, there is no need for the remote control anymore, it is piloted directly by the remote control of the TV. It also permits to send music from your phone (iPhone or Android) directly to the soundbar.
In terms of sound it is quite good also, at least much better than the "built in" sound of the TV (even though it doesn't reach, obviously, the sound quality of a full-sized surround home theater, but it is also much cheaper).
Overall a clear recommendation.

Surround yourself with brilliant colors and high-definition graphics with this Samsung curved television. Increased LED illumination makes images pop from the screen, and 4K HD provides sharp images that make you feel like you're there. This Samsung curved television has a wide 65-inch screen for movie-theater experiences right at home.

Very good 4K TV, with a tremendous picture quality. I was never a big fan of Samsung, but this TV is simply great - very easy to use (small, but very well thought remote control, which even pilots the Xfinity TV set-top box), very nice design and, most importantly, extremely nice picture quality (the 4K upscaling seems to work nicely, and with my Samsung 4K BluRay player, 4K movies are absolutely stunning).
Overall very recommendable.

Nice furniture for curved TVs
on November 11, 2016
Posted by: Dirk
Verified Purchase:Yes
Nice and wealthy looking furniture, especially adapted for curved TVs up to 65". It also provides some useful storage space (for devices, remote controls etc.). It is just a little bit high, so make sure you have the right sitting position to not have to stretch your neck.

Very good vacuum cleaner
on November 6, 2016
Posted by: Dirk
Verified Purchase:Yes
Very good vacuum cleaner for the price. Quite powerful and very easy to use. The automatic cable retractor is a useful feature. Easy to "drive" on the carpet and on stone or wooden floor. Cleans well and leaves the carpet looking as new. Inexpensive compared to other products, and seems to be of a good product quality (just used 3 times so far...).

Good router for Xfinity
on November 6, 2016
Posted by: Dirk
Verified Purchase:Yes
Good router to be used with Xfinity internet access - however, also the only one that enables the phone option of Xfinity... The first one I bought was not working (phone did not connect), however, I changed it and the second one was working just fine. Internet download speed is somewhat slow by wifi (only around 10-20Mbps, for a contracted 75Mbps), but correct when connected by Ethernet. I'll try with my Airport wifi router later to see if speed improves.
In general a good product for the given application.

6.1 channels. I see the subwoofer. So where are the other 6 channels? Are there 6 speaker channels in-line in the soundbar? Can't much separation.
The speakers are built in to the soundbar. Some send the sound directly to the listener and some indirectly via reflection on the walls, to create a "virtual" surround sound field. Not as good as a real setup with discrete speakers, but on the other hand much less expensive and visually much less intrusive.
Hope that helps...
