Most Favorable Review

Great in my Galaxy SIII

Patriot LX Series 32GB Class 10 Micro SDHC Flash Card Model PSF32GMCSDHC10
Patriot LX Series 32GB Class 10 Micro SDHC Flash Card Model PSF32GMCSDHC10

Pros: Fast and reliable.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Been in and out of my phone. My biggest concern was video. The Galaxy S3 does full HD video and I didn't want frame drops due to low write speeds. Have taken hours of video and everything has been perfect (not necessarily my camera skills - just talking about video! :-).

Most Critical Review

Monopoly Power!

Microsoft Visio Standard 2013 - Download - 1 PC
Microsoft Visio Standard 2013 - Download - 1 PC

Pros: Stable.

Cons: Every version - like with pretty much everything Microsoft - gets progressively more awful. The interface gets more cluttered and baffling as new features [that you'll probably never use] are added. Hyperactively insists on helping and automated assistance yields sensible results about half the time.

Overall Review: I wouldn't buy over-priced junk like this if there was a viable alternative. I use Gimp a lot, but for doing detailed network diagrams and the like, it doesn't cut it.

Nice printer all around

HP Officejet Pro 9015 Wireless Auto-Duplex All-In-One Color Inkjet Printer
HP Officejet Pro 9015 Wireless Auto-Duplex All-In-One Color Inkjet Printer

Pros: - like the scan/copy features - holds a ton of paper (at least compared to the HP 8620 this replaces) - fast - smaller footprint than the last all-in-1 i had (HP 8620) - ink carts are a lot less messy than the older ones

Cons: Setup is odd. Looks like HP wants people to use their app (the LCD panel tells you to do so), but it didn't find the printer for device-to-device connection out of the box. So after pondering how to get around the "Use our app to configure the printer!" dialog, I touched the "?" icon. That sent me to the configuration options for the printer where i was able to connect to my home wifi. After that, the precious HP app was able to find the printer. Everything works great, but dumbing down setup doesn't seem to be a great strategy.

Overall Review: Good enough

Fun and Functional

Pros: Two USB interfaces that work at the same time. The lights continuously change inside the translucent device. It's silly, but the 2.1A interface makes the job of charging large batteries so much better.

Cons: I guess the lights could be annoying if you like total darkness.

Excellent

Pros: Stays cool. Chargers up from 0 to 100% in 4 to 5 hours. (Thanks to the included 12V charger! I have an equivalent capacity battery that requires microUSB input to charge and it easily takes around 12 hours to charge.) Chargers my vintage Samsung Galaxy S3 6 times - with plenty left to top off my MP3 player. 2.1A USB ports charge phones up fast.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Nice carrying bag. Not sure how I can use the DC-output cable which came with the battery. Looks like it needs some additional adapter hardware to leverage it to power laptops, but I don't need it at this point. I had a Tekkeon battery for several years that was convenient for powering laptops, but it's worn out now.

Pros: Neat idea.

Cons: Cheap, flimsy, and lasted for about 3 uses before falling apart.

Overall Review: Had it not been so cheap, I would've been very angry about this thing breaking. I shouldn't have expected anything more.

Awful

Shipping said allow 5-15 days and arrived 16 days later. Top of product box was crushed in on one corner and the product inside had nothing inside to cushion from impact. Luckily, the damage was minimal. The product (a 3-bay hard drive duplication box with a bonus set of flash readers) is very clunky and it's extremely difficult to get older ATA drives in. Overall, this was the only truly negative experience I've had with Newegg. I see Junian is off the marketplace already - wise move. Don't let them back.
