A Promise - Yet to be Delivered
on January 31, 2017
Posted by: Raquelita
Verified Purchase:Yes
My son requested this for his birthday, and our whole family got involved. His input was added to this review.
Within 3 minutes of unboxing Google Home was set up and in great excitement our whole family started "OK Google"ing it. We were mainly focused on asking all kinds of things which would produce good answers - like googling things, only by voice (distances, weather, etc). Worked like a charm. Then it played my music (which I totally forgot to back up on Google Music last year).
The one no-excuse omission is Bluetooth Audio functionality, or at the very least an AUX jack.
The main challenge we had (and have) is finding non-anecdotal use of it - we are looking at the many "smart" devices available and still don't find the one that makes a difference for us - but being a Google device, and cloud-based, we are sure we'll be getting many new additions shortly. Looking forward ...

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.

almost a computer 'on the go'

a lovely way to keep up on news, international events, and carry with me the books i downloaded to read when i have time. the mini4 has a clean bright screen, much easier to read in daylight than the previous ipads, and its smaller size and lighter weight makes it ideal for me. and others with similar needs. it's got about everything a computer on the go would need, with a bluetooth keyboard, except an equivalent to textedit the mac provides (i use a workaround with the DOCUMENTS app, and that so far meets my needs.... especially when connected to the net;)
i take it everywhere and am very happy with it.

Fado Forever!!
on February 17, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
After lengthy debate I decided that my bonus rewards were best put towards an old favorite - Fado music. Time for new singers. I had heard of Ana Moura (and tried bits on the internet) and have been absolutely thrilled at the sounds emanating from my car's CD player. This soulful performer gives her all in passionate Portuguese and I spend the rest of the day humming her melodies!

For those who love the Fado Beat!!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have been an Amalia Rodrigues fan exclusively for more than 50 years but finally broke down and tried another Fado singer - I am not sorry and do not consider this a betrayal of my loyalty to Amalia! Mariza sings with all her heart and soul, old favorites and newer songs. She is a new name to me but has already taken a permanent place in my car's CD player.
