Most Favorable Review
USB Micro SATA + Mini PCIE to mSATA 3x5cm SSD Micro SATA Adapter Card Cable
USB Micro SATA + Mini PCIE to mSATA 3x5cm SSD Micro SATA Adapter Card Cable

Pros: good enough. two parts...hmmm. so you can use it for other size sata ? i suppose. though likely just for cheaper production

Cons: packaging. you will need luck to get it working. but price is so low. china has what is called air packet, their version of our media mail. that is how you are getting all your small, inexpensive parts from china that make no sense financially (like under 10.0 for international shipping including the product) It is not the highest quality and many companies ship in simply a thin plastic envelope with no padding. They dont have a 'fragile' designation like USPS does.

Overall Review: KNOW WHAT YOU NEED. This is not the same as 2.5 sata or 1.8 sata. nor will it work for proprietary MAC Lenovo and ASUS SSDs. Good luck finding anything that does read those drives except the machine they came in. Stop buying these type of products from these companies if you dont like it....or learn to back up your data. UPDATE: As now most people should understand the difference between 2.5 sATA,m-sata and m.2, this is a good buy just know that if you have an Apple, their m.2 is proprietary and this will not work.

Pros: color smell nice out of the box dont sound BAD....

Cons: not loud buttons have little effect volume and boost button non functional when using corded not louder when corded

Overall Review: if you need BT headphones and like me you hate in-ear then go ahead, but i paid 40.00 on sale. barely discernible quality difference between these and a 20-25 pair. just not loud at all. way too much room noise gets through, though that is problem with all headphones.

only detraction is the shape

SAMSUNG 256GB BAR Plus (Metal) USB 3.1 Flash Drive, Speed Up to 400MB/s (MUF-256BE4/AM)

Pros: fast sleek solid, not 'fragile' or 'flimsy'

Cons: just the shape. if you have a desktop i/o panel, will not fit if you are already using many ports

Overall Review: i will buy again. shape is not totally worth detracting an egg but it will be an issue at some point. wish it made a recycle bin like samsung phones do

Pros: [Updated 08 2016] First, this is not 'rebranded'...this is 'copied'. It is not identical to the Saitek internally, it is externally, it is good for a good price (initially I got mine when it was new & got it for 20.00) and overall if you are in market for a non-mechanical this is the best....as it COPIES the best design, ever, imho. Mine's space bar died a while back, it still works but it takes a hard pounding to get it to move. Very annoying, and of course no way to really fix it in a financially feasible way , or without being without it for months, so other than that just wanted to make sure new buyers get it IS a copy, a very good one, but Im not 100% that the LEDs and key mechanisms are exactly the same...just very close. Well its simple; either copyright is a non-factor in China or they bought the Saitek design, and as the Saitek Eclipse II is my favorite...this exact duplicate is perfect.

Cons: taking $ out saitek pocket? dont even know what country they are in im just guessing china. only con, i cant go back and buy 100 of these at 20.00. I got it for 20.00 on sale (Saitek going for about 80? i think). I see they are now 70, temporarily on sale for 50.00. If you like the EclipseII get this before the price is the same. Identical I tell ya.

Overall Review: UPDATE: So, when I bought this I still had 3 Saitek NIB. I realized that the price had shot up as apparently Saitek is out of business.So after owning it for many months now, I still say its near identical to the Eclipse II. I did also, after selling my new ones, by a used Saitek online and when I got it I took it apart to clean and try to fix it. I have not taken apart the Perrix yet, but that would be the true telling of how close they are. I do see the genius of the Saitek design though I will warn anyone considering repairing their own; do NOT strip even one screw hole.If all holes are not intact for reassembly you will have string problems in that area. Another consideration, many of the used Saiteks I saw were missing one or both of the stands (and the palm rest but I throw those out myself). Buying a Perrix, at the right price, is a great way to get the impossible to find pieces to fix your Saitek.... But three/four months now at least...and Perrix still has good LED, uniform key responce, and is a good knock off. My Saiteks only ever got thrown out due to frustartion with missing stands (that I broke) or from maybe a spill....Never had I actually burned one out. So we will see if Perrix can stand same test of time. Even my G110 finally burned out with using the LED all the time, and started to show significant wear, but never my Saiteks.

Pros: works good

Overall Review: I just wasted 30 min writing a cojent, decriptive review. newegg made me re-log in and wiped the text out. Thanks.

1.00 each is accurate

Pros: They are cheap. Design is decent though they are very light (assuming thin=cost low)

Cons: Wear out in a week, or less.

Overall Review: I may be stylus-stupid. I don't know what cloth they use in stylus's (yea i know "-i") but it must have a huge quality variance. I bought some Rosewill ones that were 12.00 each when they were on sale, and a Belkin one at about same price point, and I swear, even those do wear, but they seem to last much longer than any of the cheap variety available here or elsewhere. On that note, these are a much much better deal than the 5.00 ea ones at Walgreens.
