I bought these after 2 sets of $100 headphones crapped out, one of them being Beats by Dre. Been much better sound and battery life, no issues with disconnecting.
Oh man. I just purchased this yesterday and may have the same issue, didn't think about that. May have to return...
I thought about it, more because I hate my doorbell because my dog goes nuts. My wife and I both work from home so honestly, we don’t really need it. That garage door closer would be better, but again, I don’t really need it. Kid going to college in 1 month, think I need to err on the don’t get things you don’t need. $5 smart plugs, need and nice that my wife has another Amazon account so I got two for $10. My Christmas lights one are a great thing but the Echo Show doesn’t like them during non-Christmas. It’s probably because of the two accounts but the setup with another app then Alexa sucked. These should be right in Alexa app.
I did get Quaker Oatmeal packs for cheaper than Costco and the Costco one includes the Cinnamon and Apple, which aren’t as good. I think my wife was looking at dorm stuff for my oldest too. Not sure what she got.
That is really appealing. Was having wifi issues in my new house for a bit, but it got better once I was using a firestick on the TV further away.
The Firesticks are actually pretty solid. I had no issues with that, seems more to be phones and laptops that have issues.
Is there a reason you went with the Meshforce and not the Eero? Was just looking at these.
I've had great luck with Brother printers. Never been an inkjet person and have always went with toner. (Last longer and you can buy secondhand toner replacements for like $10-15).
Yeah, I clicked on Sports and Outdoors filter and the first three items presented were baby clothing, a watch, and a dress.
I bought Asus' for my daughters in middle school. Five plus years of consistant teenage use(UTube, Netflix, google docs etc.) and they have been great. My oldest just graduated and her charging port is getting to be a pain, cord has to be just so for it to work, so I bought her this one yesterday for $180 to take to college. My Younger daughters old one is still fine for her, no problems. Offered to get my Oldest a MacBook Air but she prefers the chromebook, yay practicality
Without looking, it could be that none of them are "great." Chromebooks are built to internet. That's it. If it has speakers and a web cam and two usb ports, you're golden.
Come to find out, it does not have to be a Chromebook. It can be a Windows laptop as well. Ugh.
That was $180 yesterday?? Dang itI bought Asus' for my daughters in middle school. Five plus years of consistant teenage use(UTube, Netflix, google docs etc.) and they have been great.

Cheaper, better rating and two nodes instead of one, again making it cheaper since I’ve got 3 floors and a big house.
Curious about the Echo Show 5. Once i get my stuff up and running i may add one or two. Nice to pull up the video from the Ring Doorbell. I guess you can probably do that on your phone/tablet though? I figure when black friday rolls around i may hit Amazon again and possibly buy a few more Alexa goodies.Bought a lot more this year than previous years. They were basically giving away many of their products and lots of credits were available this year. Was hoping they'd have some Warehouse deals but doesn't look like it. Wound up getting:
3 FIresticks
75' TCL
Ring Pro doorbell + Echo Dot
Smart Plug + Echo Dot
Portable device/phone charger
Echo Show 5
Bunch of cat treats
Gonna bet Sling subscription #s go skyrocketing up soon
Exactly why I got it. (For Ring Doorbell)
I ended up getting yet another firestick, this time the 4k one, for my main TV. I guess you can link your Echo to your firestick and the Ring Doorbell. Then you just say Alexa show me my front door and it will come up on your TV.
You may help yourself by asking not "what machine should I get" but "what does this machine have to do?" Everything my school asks of my daughter is internet based. All the assignments, primers, rubrics, and answers are on websites and/or use web-based tools (eg google drive, google docs, google slides). Chrome OS is lightweight so minimal hard drive (internal storage) needed. A couple gig of ram should help it run youtube. So my daughter's machine needed to connect to the internet (I have wifi in my house) and connect to a mouse (USB port). A decent sized well-reviewed screen and well-reviewed keyboard are helpful. If there's an extra USB port and she can plug in her phone, that's a bonus. Printing can be dicey on chromebooks but my daughter never had a need for it.
Wasn't cheaper. Both were $199.
95% of the time I choose the slow shipping for the $1 digital credit. Have bought several movies this way.Brony said:
90% of the time the incentive I’m offered for slow shipping is a prime now credit, which I have no use for. I wish I had the $1 digital coupon option more often.
