EXCELLENT

COOLMAX HD-250B-eSATA Aluminum 2.5" SATA USB 2.0 & eSATA External Enclosure
COOLMAX HD-250B-eSATA Aluminum 2.5" SATA USB 2.0 & eSATA External Enclosure

Pros: Works well, Good looking, low price.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Very nice product. Very good looking, quality product. Plug and play. Outstanding value. Only the case that comes with it should cost this much. I took a risk with this product (there where no reviews on it), and it payed of big time. If you are looking for quality, good looking enclosure, which also comes with great pouch (not some cheap cloth) look no more. This is the one.

DELL Grade A Laptop Latitude E6530 Intel Core i7 3rd Gen 3720QM (2.60 GHz) 16 GB Memory 256 GB SSD 15.6" Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit

Pros: Fast

Cons: Used

Overall Review: I will try here helping potential buyers of this machine. If you want one fast and strong laptop for the fraction of price, and you could care less how it looks, go for this one. You will have to understand the following : First you will have to understand that what you think of "Refurbished" and what NewEgg and people who actually "refurbished" these machines (Joy Systems) think of it, are two entirely different things. For the starters, you have to understand why NewEgg has some of these "graded" (B and C) and some are not. According to NewEgg if you don't see grading that means machine is "A" graded. So this one is supposed to be "A" graded. I received this unit and the palm rest was covered with some lousy plastic. Almost like plastic that manufacturers cover brand new units for the protection. I took off that plastic only to find scratched (hard) plastic below that, with traces of old stickers (and of course glue). If anyone from Joy Systems is reading this : if you think that this job what you did is called "refurbishing", you are sadly mistaken. This would be same as painting the rusted spots on the car. Screen on this unit was/is in perfect condition. Another very important thing : No matter how many times you read questions and answers on this laptop, you will end up confused when it comes to : integral camera and what kind of graphics/resolution this laptop has. For this, I blame NewEgg. How can you sell something without full description ? Did you ever try buying car, where you MAY have 4 wheels, but you also MAY have 3 wheels ? My laptop came with camera and mic, so I can install Skype and don't have to use external camera. It also came with graphic card and high resolution screen (1920 X 1080) - and I am very happy about that. Overall - for this price, it's hard to beat this laptop. If you can live with the garbage job on the plastics (cosmetic mess), and if you can pull the trigger on the crapshoot about camera and graphic card/screen. Hence the 3 stars for this review.

Best, so far

Pros: Just great.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I have total of 8 pairs of Oakleys. This pair is by far the best. If you have small face stay away from them. I just could not believe this price. Regular Badman's where $ 400 when they came out and Ferrari edition was $ 100 more. I was sure I will end up with the fakes. They arrived today, i original box (sealed) and with all proper numbers. 100 % authentic. I could not be happier.

Pros: Like new.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Yesterday I pulled the trigger on this little toy. I ordered it yesterday and received it today (with no extra money for fast delivery). THANK YOU Newegg ! This machine arrived in LIKE NEW condition. If there is grade A, this machine should be grade A+++ It started flawlessly. Super quiet, and fast. Screen is beautiful. Few things that you should be aware, because when you compare this model to other (more expansive Acer's) with same R14 but different model numbers its not clear does this one have touchscreen and camera. I am happy to inform you that is has both. I installed Skype and called my friend, who told me that this little camera is 10 times better and sharper than my camera (logitech) on my desktop. He said that the image this little camera projects on his screen is unreal. This machine is super quiet (probably thanks to SSD) and I can't hear the fans kicking on. Keyboard is the only (so-so) thing on it. If you are looking for this type of hybrid, go for it. You will and up with great NEW LOOKING machine at the fraction of the price.

Very nice

Pros: Very sturdy, well built. Very good looking. Metal hinges. Outstanding key board (very much like olderThinkpads). Rubberized interior (where you rest your palms while typing).

Cons: Heavy. Basic screen is the worst part of this beautiful machine.

Overall Review: For this price, this is a steal. I bought this refurbished machine, and it arrived pretty much looking like new. Came with Win 7 pro, which I promptly upgraded to Win 10 Pro (for free). I have already ordered cady to hold extra SSD disk. All you have to do is pop out CD drive and insert the new disk. I will probably add another 4 Gigs of RAM, and will end up having one very decent machine for the fraction of the price of the new (strong) laptops. The only drawback on this laptop is the basic screen. Yet, it's good enough for all kinds of every day operations. I am very pleased with this purchase. Took regular (free) shipment, and got it to Chicago suburb in 3 days.

Taiwan version

Pros: Taiwan version

Cons: None so far (didn't install it)

Overall Review: I bought this from NewEgg few days ago, and it arrived yesterday. I still didn't install this drive, and the reason for my writing is to let people know that I got Taiwan version. Apparently, units made in Taiwan are better because of different firmware. I could not confirm (by looking at the sticker) what firmware version I have, but I am sure, as long it's made in Taiwan - I should be safe. Also, I don't know are they selling now all Taiwan drives, or did I just get lucky. Chances are that they are all from Taiwan. So if you are on the fence, bite the bullet and go for it.
