Most Favorable Review

Exactly what I wanted

Omni Gear HDMI-2-HDMI 6 ft. Black HDMI to HDMI 2.0 Cable (4K Ultra HD) Male to Male
Omni Gear HDMI-2-HDMI 6 ft. Black HDMI to HDMI 2.0 Cable (4K Ultra HD) Male to Male

Pros: Works on every device I've used it on. You get a high quality cable for extrememly cheap price. I've used this cable to connect PC to monitor, Xbox 360 to TV, PS3 to TV, and PC to TV. Got full 1080p on every device that supports it and always got a clear picture no lines or discoloration.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I bought 2 of these. Both lived up to expectations. Cable is thin compared to some HDMI's but I consider that a pro since it's less visible. Would buy again.

Most Critical Review

Works with 1 issue

3C Pro 32GB SD 32GB SDHC Card Class 10 Extreme Speed for Camera & Camcorder +R1B Reader
3C Pro 32GB SD 32GB SDHC Card Class 10 Extreme Speed for Camera & Camcorder +R1B Reader

Pros: Cheap. At the time I purchased this was the cheapest 32GB card I could find. I bought it for running Nintendo Wii backups, and it worked just fine for that. Still Does after 10 months of use.

Cons: Lately the card has been erasing all the data on it when I use the usb adaptor to connect to my computer. I con't know if it's a usb voltage problem, the adaptor itself or what, but sometimes, I will plug it in and the drive will just come up saying "unable to read device, please format the drive." It doesn't happen every time, but enough to require a backup of the card on my computer that I can use to restore after formatting. It only happens when connecting to my PC if I leave it in the wii it never has this problem.

Overall Review: I wouldn't buy this card again personally, but I would guess very few people have my problem and it may not be the card at all.

Quality Keyboard (Blue Switch Review)

Tt eSPORTS KB-POI-BRBLUS-01 POSEIDON Illuminated Mechanical Keyboard - Brown Switch Edition
Tt eSPORTS KB-POI-BRBLUS-01 POSEIDON Illuminated Mechanical Keyboard - Brown Switch Edition

Pros: This is the best keyboard you will find for the price range. I did a great deal of research before I bought and the reviews on this keyboard basically speak for itself. The keys are a pleasure to type on with the tactile and audible response. IT'S SOLID! I mean when you plant this thing down in one spot it will stay there. Very well built, feels like it would last 10 years. Also the lighting on this keyboard is very bright I have it on the lowest setting and it is still brighter than my old G110. The keyboard is loud, which I wanted.

Cons: Not really a con, but the low resistance means that you don't notice the feedback as much as other mechanical keyboards.

Overall Review: This is my first mechanical KB since I used the IBM clicky's as a child so I really didn't know what type of switches to buy. That being said I wish the keys had more resistance. The "bump" that gives tactile feedback is very subtle and I'd prefer it to be noticeable even when typing at full speed. That's only a personal preference and I'd imagine would be a positive for many people. For me I hit the keys so hard that with the low resistance it feels like I'm using to much force when the key bottoms out. In summary: Low resistance, easy to press keys, with a slightly noticeable "bump" that provides feedback. Well built, full illumination and looks great. If you're a hard typest the keys will hit hard when they bottom out compared to a mesh keyboard.

I will never own another mouse

Razer Naga Molten MMO PC Gaming Mouse
Razer Naga Molten MMO PC Gaming Mouse

Pros: Where do I start? I've had this mouse over 2 years and it has absolutely surpassed every expectation I had. I have small to medium sized hands and was looking for something that would feel comfortable after hours of gameplay. Not a problem for this thing, it literally feels like it was molded from my hand. Now when I was shopping around I was worried about the back end being raised high because I use the "claw grip" when gaming and thought it would get in the way. Nope. What I found when using this was that I could use the claw grip just as easily as I have with any mouse, but when my wrist got tired I could comfortably rest my palm on the back and play palm grip without sacrificing any flexibility. Now I actively shift back and forth between claw and palm. or somewhere in between, all fluid like without giving any thought to how I'm holding the mouse, because it all feels natural. The buttons on this thing are a godsend. Like half the people on here I bought this for wow and was tired of using shift modifiers because my buttons were overloaded. Not anymore. The top 9 thumb buttons are easily accessible and I have major abilities mapped to all of them. I never have any problems hitting the right button and they each have a satisfying, albeit quiet, "click" to let me know I have pressed something. The mouse wheel is also one of the best I've ever owned. It has a nonslip texture and "clicks" into place every time you turn it like a gear for better precision. The wheel button feels excellent when you press it. Durability wise I've punished this thing with thousands of hours of use over 2 years and the buttons still feel as springy as the day I bought it. Left and right buttons are still responsive, and uprising the paint hasn't worn off and they haven't got that "slick" area from hundreds of thousands of button presses like a lot of peripherals get. As far as the accuracy, there isn't much to say. The DPI on this thing is stupid high and by far the most accurate mouse I've ever owned. You can swing the mouse around and stop it at a dime wherever you want on your screen.... if you're fast enough, meaning this mouse is way more accurate than the human operating it.

Cons: I have very few. For one thing the 2 left finger buttons are hard to reach and feel awkward to press because you have to scoot your hand up and move your index finger to the left to press. I still use them for low use things, like back and fourth on a web browser, but those with larger hands might not have this problem. Besides that the mouse weight could be a bit heavier, but that's just a preference. The lightweight makes it "feel" cheap for the first few seconds of use, but that goes away after you feel your hand molding to it and then feel the solidness of it despite the weight. Also the bottom 3 thumb buttons are "slightly" harder to reach, but those are for your lesser used ability's right?

Overall Review: I will buy this model as long as they make it. I have never found a mouse that fits my hand this well, and the buttons are overwhelmingly useful to gaming. Most of the cons I listed theyve already fixed, like the 2 left index buttons being moved below the mouse wheel. If you haven't bought this mouse, you should.

Exactly what I wanted

HP V165w 16GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive Model P-FD16GHP165-GE
HP V165w 16GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive Model P-FD16GHP165-GE

Pros: Small size, price per GB storage, average to fast transfer speeds for 2.0, included key ring strap makes sure I always have it.

Cons: The slide off cover feels loose. This may not be a con so much as a design preference. It hasn't fell off yet, but I keep thinking that down the road I'm going to loose it.. Also, I have had instances where windows won't detect the drive and I'll have to uninstall the driver then plug it back in. Again this may not be a fault of the device as I've seen this many times with flash storage devices.

Overall Review: For the money this thing is great. It's cheap, lightweight and very compact. On a 2.0 usb interface I transferred 8GB of data in less than 5 minutes, which to me is plenty fast enough. I wanted a good size drive to keep on my key chain so that I would have my IT tools with me at all times, and this does an excellent job.
