    Post The OnePlus 5T is unable to stream Netflix, Amazon Prime Video in HD

    My understanding is it only effects Amazon and Netflix streaming. OP has a return process in place where you can send your phone back and have the issue corrected. They promise a 3 day turn-around and I can firmly say, at this point, it appears to hold true. I sent my phone in late last week...

    Thread After 4.4.2 update, WiFi drops with Blutooth enabled

    I use my GPAD along with a nice bluetooth headset when I exercise. After the upgrade to 4.4.2, I started experiencing wifi connection drops. The only way to reestablish the connection is to toggle airplane mode, disable bluetooth or reboot the tablet. As long as I have bluetooth disabled the...

    Post Compare and contrast the G-Pad with the Samsung Note 8

    I owned the Note 8 previously but the screen resolution coupled with my limited use of the stylus, forced me to look at alternatives. I purchased and received the LG G Pad 8.3 this week and so far I'm glad I made the move. The one thing I miss from the Note 8 is the ability to move the apps to...

    Post Just ordered the Dell Venue 8 Pro

    Yesterday, I bought two tablets from Newegg. I first bought a LG G Pad 8.3 ($259). It pairs with my LG G2 nicely. But I wanted a mobile solution that would allow me to VPN to multiple customer sites for I.T. related support. I use Google services for all of my company communication needs but...

    Post $279.00 on Newegg

    I had a Note 8 and it was the perfect size but I couldn't get past the screen resolution. For that reason, I sold it and begun my search for a like size tablet with a higher resolution. That is how I stumbled across this beauty. I have not received mine yet but I've watched enough Youtube videos...

    That's a good idea. Think I will do the same.

    Post $279.00 on Newegg

    I pulled the trigger today as well but I used the Newegg Ebay storefront. The price is $20 less ($259). Hope I don't get burned.

    Thread Notification alert causes audio and video to pause

    I purchased the Note 8.0 last week and like everything about it. However, there is one annoying issue that I have yet to resolve. I get allot of notification alerts and when watching a video or listening to music, the incoming notification temporarily pauses the video and interrupts the audio...

    Post Onda V972 Allwinner A31 Quad Core 9.7inch Retina IPS Screen Dual Camera Tablet PC

    I received my tablet this week and because of reoccurring script errors and sub par performance, I was ready to send it back. The detailed instructions you laid out were easy to follow and it has improved the tablet experience immensely. Thanks for your help.

    Thread [Q] Web Browser Performance question

    Hey Nook HD + Owners: I am interested in the NOOK HD + but the one I demoed at my local B&N was really choppy while browsing the web. In addition, I had to touch links several times before the webpage launched. Is this the norm or was this a flaky unit?

    Post Sony Xperia S - Dilemma

    I agree with Raedek Premium feel, awesome design and above average display. It could be a winner if not for the buggy software. I couldn't get past the random shutdowns while watching movies or in sleep mode. I've had a positive experience with the nexus 7 so I tend to agree with the...

    Post Xperia tablet S shuts down watching HD movie

    Well guys this is my swan song. After the last couple of shutdown events, I have reluctantly decided to part with my Xperia Tablet S. I have recently received the Nexus 7 and it has been pretty stable. I hope Sony works out the kinks. Good luck to you all. :(

    Just downloaded and installed. I'll report back any noticeable changes as soon as I have a chance to run it through its paces.

    Post Xperia tablet S shuts down watching HD movie

    I too am growing more frustrated. Rather than shutting down, it would be better if the app just crashed. Maybe the problem will be addressed in the JB update.
