Great TV! Very Happy with purchase!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I originally purchased a Sharp UltraHDTV, and after setting it up quickly noticed that there was a huge discrepancy between the quality of that set on hi-end content versus how it handles regular content. I returned that set to get this one, and I have been delighted and excited to use it every time!
Although I typically use an HD cable to connect my laptop to it, I can connect with it wireless too.
The sound settings are not terrible but not the best. I have external speakers with subwoofer connected to it (which I will be upgrading shortly!), so sound is not an issue for me personally. Would recommend external speakers of some kind if you want a full quality experience with the sound. Picture is absolutely great, regardless of what you are watching. Up-converts content seamlessly!

Purchased this to go along with an HDTV purchase (needed this to hook one of my laptops to the TV) and it works splendidly. It comes in different lengths, so make sure you have the appropriate length for your set-up area.

I expected much more from this product!
on August 6, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
This TV is very good at producing hi-end 4k and HDMI content, however, it does not handle black very well and often seems to be patch grey when it should be black. All non-HDMI content looks somewhat terrible (ghosting, poor upscaling, etc.). Returned it because I was told that this product could upscale basic content as well as handle the premium content. You can absolutely tell it has a 60Hz base refresh rate, so if you plan to watch ANYTHING other than hi-end content, try a TV with at least a 120Hz refresh rate.
In case you are wondering, I ended up being extremely satisfied with a Samsung 46" SMART TV For roughly the same price as this one, and it handles HD content exquisitely + upconverts content seamlessly without sacrificing the deep blacks. (Base refresh rate of 120hz).

Rest easy knowing your home is protected, whether you're there or away with Arlo Pro 4. With no wires, your camera connects directly to your Wi-Fi network so you can easily install in minutes. Spot unique details with color night vision, and see more in dark areas with the integrated spotlight. The advanced lens provides superior image quality and a wider field of view, and allows you to track and zoom on moving objects with clarity. Hear and speak to visitors clearly with two-way audio. Receive notifications and view videos that tell you a package, person, vehicle or even an animal is detected, so you can take quick action like phone a friend, sound an alarm or call emergency services with included trial of Arlo Secure. Personalize what you get notified for and create custom activity zones to ensure you only get alerts for what matters, reducing those that are less important. Arlo Secure includes cloud recordings of video clips at 2K or lower resolution for 30 days. Renewal of an Arlo Secure plan is required to maintain Arlo Secure features, including cloud storage and activity zones.
 

Is the battery removable like the Arlo Pro2 or does the whole unit need to be charged?

The battery is removable, but is not designed in a way that would allow charging outside of the camera casing. However, the camera casing does use a magnetic connector that would allow you to leave the camera in place and charge without needing to reposition the camera.

It also has a magnetic base stand that would allow taking the camera from a perch without needing to dislodge the stand or undue any fastening.

There may be some sort of charger available for the battery alone, but if there is, it is not included with this camera.

does anyone know if this flash drive will download a movie that is more than 4.67 GB? I read somewhere that some drives cannot handle if file is larger than 3.0 GB? is that true for this drive? thank you for your time

I transferred 24 GB of info in a matter of minutes with this drive, so a file of less than 5 GB should not be a problem at all.

Use this Rocketfish 2-Output HDMI Splitter with 4K at 60Hz and HDR Pass-Through to create two outputs with one HDMI signal. It has a plug-and-play interface with no setup necessary, and it has full 4K and HDR compatibility to accommodate the latest visual displays. This Rocketfish HDMI splitter retains the sound and image quality of the original input.
 

Hello! I want to add 2 monitors to my laptop. Will this product allow me to extend my display to 2 monitors with 1 hdmi port on my computer? I want to see different things on each monitor. Thank you!

No, this will only allow you to duplicate 1 source onto 2 screens. To my knowledge, there is no simple way to do what you want to do (split 1 HDMI signal into 2 separate independent signals). There may be a way to do this through USB ports, but the quality would be questionable.

If you have a laptop that is compatible with a docking station, some docking stations come with 2 HDMI ports and would potentially allow for what you are attempting to do.

Also, if you happen to have a DVI port on your laptop, there are converters for switching DVI ports to HDMI ports.

I am certainly no expert, and there could be some device relessed tomorrow that allows for what you are asking, but this is what I gathered back when I was originally researching this product about where this stands today.

Carry your gear easily with this compact Solo backpack. Constructed of heavy-duty parachute nylon, its fully padded compartments protect your laptop and tablet, and the zippered organizer and side pockets provide plenty of storage. This 17.3-inch Solo backpack has Velcro fasteners to keep accessories secure and padded straps for extra comfort.
 

Will the Alienware 17 R4 fit in this bag?

If it actually meSures 17.3 inches, then it should be able to fit the pouch fine. The compartment that the laptop pouch is in is even larger, and could fit a slightly larger 17+ inch laptop. If you are not sure, it might be best to visit bestbuy and try out the pouch on a similarly sized laptops (a best buy employee used a demo laptop of the same size as my gaming laptop to test out different bags for me, and not all 17.3 inch bags could fit it as the manufacturer claimed).
