Garbage Quality
on August 14, 2018

from Upland CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had the laptop for 4 days and ended up returning it because it heat throttled so bad that playing basic games would average around 15 FPS. Only reason why I gave it a shot was the sale price but even at that price point it wasn't worth the hassle.

So I purchased this device and nowhere on the box or device does it say that it's a special ads Fire device but my lockscreen is full of ads. I'm not going to buy something full price and still have to deal with the ads without it clearly marked on the package.

Meh Steam Autumn Sale

So I purchased the steam wallet card in anticipation of the Autumn sale and was greatly disappointed but it's a gift card so I can't blame it for the horrible discounts.

Made Carpets Dirtier
on November 28, 2017
Posted by: Nuggins
from Upland CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I normally rent my carpet cleaners from Rug Doctor but decided I could save some money and purchase one to use long term but I regret it. This device did a better job spreading the dirt than cleaning it up. I have a small walking path that is dirtier than the rest of my carpet and the scrubber does not scrub hard enough but actually spreads the dirt out to the side so now I have a small path that spread at the part where I tried to clean the carpet.

I was looking for a replacement DP cable and went to Best Buy to buy one since it was an emergency. The only had these cables at the time and it was too short for what I needed plus the price was overly expensive so I returned them and found a cheaper and longer cable at another store.

Waterproof

Verified Purchase:Yes
It's summer and I've spent a lot of time with my kids in the pool and outside and this Fitbit was the perfect solution for me because all of the other Fitbits were not waterproof and made it worthless when we went camping by the lake or when we're at the water park or pool.

Overpriced Accessory
on August 2, 2017
Posted by: Nuggins
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this knowing that it wasn't going to be as good as the expensive VR systems and I instantly regretted my purchase. The headset wouldn't focus correctly and it kills my phone's battery very quickly. The controller that came with the VR wasn't as accurate either.

Not Worth the Price
on August 2, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
So I originally had the Asus Flip Chromebook and was looking to upgrade my son's laptop since you can use the Google Playstore. For the $400 price tag it really wasn't worth the price because my older Flip can do everything equally as smoothly at 1/3 the price.

Great Desktop
on August 2, 2017
Posted by: Nuggins
Verified Purchase:Yes
I found this wonderful gaming desktop when it was on sale. To add the cherry on top I found a display model at the store for almost half of the price. It didn't come with the keyboard, mouse or power cable but it didn't matter. This thing is amazingly fast and not as much bloat.

Take security videos efficiently and simply with the Ring Stick Up Cam. The green-conscious rechargeable battery renders 6-12 months of battery life between recharges, while infrared LEDs let you operate this camera during the day or night. The secure quick-release mount adds to the installation ease of the Ring Stick Up Cam.

Horrible Entry Level Device
on June 23, 2017
Posted by: Nuggins
Verified Purchase:Yes
My friend purchased the new Ring Doorbell that included the 1080p camera and I was amazed. The video was clear and the audio was crisp. Since I was looking for something similar to make sure UPS delivers my packages when they say they do I thought this would have been a better option since I can mount it over my door. The video is okay but found out after I installed that it was only a 720p camera and there's no point of trying to talk to anyone through the stick up cam because they can barely hear you. I'm so disappointed with this device that I won't be purchasing the doorbell or their other products.

It says that the RIng camera is easy to remove and place elsewhere, but does that also make it easy for a would-be thief or trespasser to remove it? Are there permanent mounting options?

This device can easily be stolen. I think the purpose of this device is to hang it high so it can't be touched and yes that makes it pointless if you have to recharge the batteries. Also the speaker doesn't project that well so they won't be able to hear you if they're not right in front of it or there's too much background noise.

I can set this up and still be able to watch the videos even I'm not on the Wi-Fi? Like if I'm at work and wanna check on the pets or front door. Or will this only work when I reconnect to same Wi-Fi.

As long as your Ring is linked to your home wifi you can live view the device from your phone's data using the Ring app.
