Great starter bundle, online store shines
on March 17, 2017
Posted by: tylergaa
Verified Purchase:Yes
I sold my Playstation 3 a year or so ago since it had been collecting a lot of dust, but I've recently felt the itch to play games again.
This bundle/price point won me over. It included a digital download of Call of Duty Modern Warfare so I could relive my days of playing on the PS3 as well as Call of Duty Infinite Warfare for more first-person shooter action. While it's obvious that the graphics and general horsepower of the PS4 is impressive, it's online store is where the device really shines.
I may be late to the game on digital downloads of games, but I was really pleased with being able to download full games and install them on the system. Big blockbuster games like GTA V and indie game like Inside can be installed and played with a download.
Favorite features: The new DualShock 4 controller looks similar it's predecessor, but it's so much better ergonomically. Another one of my other favorite features of the PS4 is it's ability to do Remote Play on my Mac. Lastly, the ability to buy/download games to the system remotely from my iPhone is awesome.
The downsides of the PS4 are a wonky interface with a lot of built in apps that I'm not sure I will ever use. Further, being stuck in Apple's ecosystem of iTunes Movies/Apple TV, it's unlikely I'll really use the PS4's other services beyond Amazon Prime Video.

Play your favorite video games with this PlayStation 4 DualShock controller. The microUSB port lets you keep it charged and ready to use, and the trigger buttons and controls deliver immediate response on even the most challenging games. This PlayStation 4 DualShock controller has an internal speaker for realistic close-up sound.

Looks can be deceiving, huge improvement over DS3

While the DualShock 4 looks strikingly similar to it's predecessor, it's a huge improvement. The controller has a nice solid weight to it and feels better in the hands. The analog sticks are much more responsive especially for L3/R3 functions. Additionally, the new options/share features allow quicker access to game/PS4 functions. Another great feature is it's simply Bluetooth pairing methods if you want to use the controller on a PC/Mac for emulators or Steam games.

Added protection for portable drives
on March 17, 2017
Posted by: tylergaa
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've used these carrying cases for several years and am impressed with their longevity. They provide a nice sturdy shell of protection from the hassles of travel/being mobile. I highly recommend it to anyone who is a road warrior and wants to protect their portable drives. The only drawback is that the built in pouch for the USB cord, would have preferred an elastic band over the little cloth sheet.

Massive storage at a great price

Verified Purchase:Yes
The refreshed look of the new Passport drive is great, but the price is even better. I purchased this drive as a mobile Time Machine Back Up to my MacBook Pro. I also partitioned the drive to allow me to download/share files. It's a great value for the storage and is obviously very portable. I would suggest purchasing with a carrying case, especially if you're mobile.

The all-new Magic Trackpad 2 has been enhanced to deliver more comfort and functionality than ever before. It includes a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery that charges fast, lasts about a month or more between charges, and eliminates the need for disposable batteries. With the included Lightning to USB cable, you can charge your device and automatically pair it with any Mac.

Big improvement over the original

After enjoying the massive trackpad on the new MacBook Pro, I decided to upgrade my old Magic Trackpad to take advantage of the larger surface, force touch, and all of the other gestures. I enjoy the slimmer profile and not having to deal with swapping out batteries all of the time.

I bought this hard drive as a back up for my digital photo library. Overall, it's a nice design and the USB 3 performance makes transfers speedy. Also have another drive like this that I use for my Time Machine backups.

Launched in 2011, this design established the trend of paper-thin TV antennas. Universally compatible with all HDTVs, the Mohu Leaf 50 offers the benefits and powerful performance of our notorious design coupled with the Jolt Switch USB in-line amplifier to reach a 60-mile range. Control TV signal amplification in real time with a simple ON/OFF switch. When it’s "on", TV signals are increased for clearer picture and sound, sometimes receiving channels beyond your antenna’s standard range. When it’s "off", amplification is bypassed while TV signals are still filtered from FM and cellular interference. When plugged into your TV’s USB port, the amplifier only draws power when the TV is on, saving energy, or use the included USB power adapter with any standard wall outlet. Perfect for suburban areas, compact living spaces, single-TV homes, dorm rooms, RVs…take this efficient antenna just about anywhere you go. Easy to set up and easy on the eyes. Multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF elements receive TV signals from both sides, so you can show either side of the black or white reversible design or paint the Leaf antenna for a customized look. Note: The range of this antenna will vary greatly depending on the height, power, and frequency of signals coming from the TV tower, as well as the height of the antenna installation, the terrain, and obstacles between your home and the broadcast towers. Find your TV towers and channels by using our free Antenna Point app on your android or iOS device.

A not so obnoxious antenna that works
on December 31, 2016
Posted by: tylergaa
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this antenna for my mother who was cutting the cord on cable and upgrading her living room to the HD era. The design is nice and out of the way. The reception is great and picture quality is superb. The Leaf gives you some options on hanging via tacks or Velcro stickers. Additionally, given this is the amplified version, there are options there too. Specifically the addition of USB allows you to connect the antenna to the tv's USB port to power the antenna.

The new Apple TV delivers an all-new experience with Touch andSiri, powerful new hardware, and great content, games, and more on the App Store. The Touch surface on the new Siri Remote offers innovative ways to interact with your TV, creating a connected experience with a screen that's across the room. With Siri, finding something to watch is as easy as just asking. And with apps, Apple TV allows you to customize your TV for personal and shared experiences in the living room.

Great upgrade, set up still a pain
on December 31, 2016
Posted by: tylergaa
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this Apple TV for my mother who was looking to cut the cord on cable and head into the HD era. As the product goes, Apple really made some strides in updating the Apple TV. The new Siri Remote is fabulous as you can use your voice to search and the remote is IR/Bluetooth so you can turn on and adjust volume on your actual tv. The new interface is easy to use and navigate and the App Store is a game changer for adding additional content like apps and games to your Apple TV.
The downsides are mostly in the setup. Now Apple has taken some big steps to make set up easier like pairing remotes, phones, and getting on a network. However, typing on this can be a challenge as well as logging into apps with a cable subscription. Apple has announced single sign on for the Apple TV but it is limited to only a few services and it didn't exist at the time I set up this Apple TV. The big thing is that it's better than it was with the previous generation, but it needs to get better and it will.
Overall, great update especially for the cord cutters. Apps like Netflix, HBO Now, and Hulu make it easy to dump cable.

Built specifically for the new Apple TV, the Siri Remote puts you in complete control. With Siri, simply use your voice to find what you want to watch. You can also use your finger on the Touch surface to interact with the new Apple TV. Swipe left or right. Up or down. You have all-new ways to navigate the new Apple TV quickly and easily. However, Apple TV can only connect to one remote at a time. If you wish to play multiple player games, you'll need an iOS device or controller.

Siri is a welcome addition, remote still gets lost
on December 31, 2016
Posted by: tylergaa
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this remote to replace the one that broke took a spill on the floor (the original still works, but glass surface was cracked). Siri really is a welcome addition allowing you to speak to type as well as search for items on the Apple TV. The great thing about the remote is that it's Bluetooth and also uses IR so it can turn on your tv and adjust volume rather than having to switch through multiple remote controls. The one downside is that this remote can disappear quickly between couch cushions and pillows.
