Hi folks, I have an older minivan with one of those overhead DVD entertainment systems. The system has composite video/audio inputs. I am trying to think of the simplest way to stream video to it from my android phone (Galaxy s8) without living in dongle hell. The only way I can think of is...

Does the netflix app run HD streaming on the Zenpad 10 3s? It's not on the list of HD devices on netflix but the previous year's models are. It seems weird that the newer ones would not be able to do this. https://help.netflix.com/en/node/23939

I just ordered an S8+ and am thinking about taking advantage of the deal for the $50 gear 360 camera, but I'm not entirely sure about what I would use it for. One thought that has me intrigued is to use it to record little "time capsules" of my life. I've got young children and think it would...

Hi all, I've got a 8.9 HDX first generation. My wife and I use this solely for watching video in bed after we put the kids to sleep. I'm beginning to feel this tablet "age" particularly when viewing non-amazon content (Netflix, HBO Go, Hulu, etc.). The apps are slow, sometimes unresponsive and...

I know what you mean, hard to know how much of it is due to repeated use. I'd look into the V20 but it is too big for my liking.

I pre-ordered a pixel but am finding myself wavering somewhat, mostly when I go back and look at the price tag on my google purchase history. There's no question that this is the phone I want, just not sure about this price. HTC 10's promo price ($550) is mighty appealing. One thing I'm...

I'm with you... this is the most I've spent on a phone also. My general feeling is that if you buy yourself a nice case and scree protector, you'll be all set.

I preordered Pixel 128 GB White with protection plan - delivered 10/26-10/28. I'm starting to have second thoughts about the protection plan. I usually avoid these but I fell for the financing trap, "it's only $4 a month." Anybody have thoughts pro/con on the protection plan?

I've had my note for about a week. Battery life started great, got worse. I'm getting less than 2 hours screen on time with fairly light usage. Android system and wifi are draining a ton. Any suggestions?

It seems like the biggest concern is screen size for note taking. If only they could make some sort of transforming tablet that could fit into my pocket but expand to the size of a notebook when I need it!

Those our some impressive notes! Thanks for sharing.

I'm a scientist and I keep an electronic lab notebook. I'm looking to upgrade phones and am wondering if the Note 5 is a good option for keeping a lab notebook. My current system usually involves me taking hand written notes on a notebook and then transcribing them along with data and other...

Re: Oneplus X just killed the A9 If only it came in cdma...

Battery life is one of the most frustrating aspects to try to understand before purchasing- I've seen reviews where the battery life is viewed as a strength of the A9 and others where it is described as terrible.

I want one because it will fit in my hand oh so nicely.
