Very nice - Great sound and easy hookup

I was a little iffy on buying this as I've avoided buying "Insignia" brands just because I didn't know if they would hold up as well as the "name" brands. I was completely wrong as this has been one of the handiest devices in my home. I use it daily to listen to local (and out of state) radio and the google play app is great. I do with I could stream Amazon Music through it (my only complaint), but for the price, I've basically been able to afford both an Alexa and Google streaming device and this is the Google Play device I would recommend (I like having a clock and the built in battery makes it portable and able to use the alarm if the power goes out (I assume). Great device and worth picking up when on sale.

You can't go wrong with the Elder Scrolls games. This one is superb and the steelcase is a work of art. Includes a mask too, but I suspect I won't ever wear that.

Enjoyable basketball game

Verified Purchase:Yes
I usually only buy 1 sports game for my system (1 football, 1 basketball, etc) and only buy one when it gets cheap and if it gets good reviews. Bit on this one for my basketball game and not regretting it at all. Great game!

Brave the battle with Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite for Playstation 4. Vanquish a variety of characters in the game’s single-player arcade mode or lose yourself in the game’s engaging story mode to learn more about its immersive universe. Pick from a host of legendary characters, including Iron Man and Ryu whenever you play Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite for Playstation 4.

Great look but nothing new

Fun at first but it is just a button masher in the end. Not a bad fighting game, but seems like these types of games are all pretty interchangeable.

Better than expected follow up

Verified Purchase:Yes
Is it as good as the first...no. Is it better than I expected...definitely. My expectations were very low for this. I wasn't as concerned about Will Smith not being in it (perhaps that was for the best) and let's through most logic out of the window (I won't even get into the career change for a certain dancer). What you have is a fun alien invasion movie that won't change the world, but is fun way to spend 2 hours.

Cool packaging - Enjoyed the movie

Verified Purchase:Yes
I probably watched this too many time for the first 2-3 years after it came out and then haven't watched it in years. When the new one came out, I decide to watch it again. It still stands up all these years later and I like all the extra features. The steelbook is also very cool.

Great set of the Next Gen movies
on February 3, 2018
Posted by: KevinV
from Dallas, TX
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was realigning my Star Trek collection and picked this up. It's the perfect compliment to the blu-ray original box set (with the series/animated series/movies) and next generation series. Basically, I am trying to eliminate duplicates (I had the mammoth box set with original and next gen movies, but all that was lost in the transition was the 2 bonus disc documentaries that, though entertaining, weren't completely necessary). Nice collection of underrated films, even the last 2 which weren't that highly thought of (I still liked them, though they felt more like extended episodes than movies).

1. Is Insignia Voice Smart Portable Bluetooth Speaker a replacement for Google Home? 2. Does Insignia require a Google Home to work? 3. Does Insignia work with Google Home? 4. Does Insignia work with Alexa and Echo.
1. Yes. In fact, I have both versions of Insignia Voice Smart (Portable and the smaller (non-portable) versions) and prefer them over my google home (the smaller google home). They both have a clock, will show temperature (briefly on demand) and I think they both sound great. The non-portable is smaller and lighter (great for smaller spaces) and the portable is larger, has better sound (then the smaller and google home) and you can move it around the house (or take it outside and cast music from your phone).
2. No. It is basically the same as google home. You just need a wi-fi connection and a smart phone. Setup is mostly easy, but may take a few tries.
3. It uses the google home app on your smartphone. As stated earlier, it works just like a google home device.
4. It does not work with Alexa, Echo or Amazon Music. My lone disappointment thus far is that, as a Music Unlimited subscriber on Amazon, I can't listen to that on any google related device. Google home runs some of the same basic apps as Alexa (pandora, iHeartRadio, etc), but Amazon music. Maybe one day this will change, but for now, I just have both (or you can bluetooth your Amazon music from your phone).
