The best
Pros: Excellent sound quality, excellent mic quality. Plug in, automatic config with windows xp, windows vista and windows 7 (x32 + x64), i've used these on all of them.
Cons: None
Overall Review: I've owned a few pair of these over the last several years. I've tried many different brands and styles (all < $50) and these are by far the best. When i talk to people on skype who have cheaper brands there is noticeable noise and sounds muffled. When i talk to my son who has this same headphone, it's like he's in the room with me. Not only that, other brands seen to have a lot of background noise, this one has very little.
Not so great
Pros: Great screen resolution, the outer screen is nifty. It worked flawlessly with T-Mobile.
Cons: 1. It's like picking up a flat smooth stone, hard to hold onto, very easy to drop. 2. Difficult to open 1 handed (see 1.) 3. Got so scratched up in just a few days. 4. The camera resolution doesn't reflect the picture quality, it's terrible (but i guess most cell phone cameras are) 5. Buttons are terrible. 6. The Sim card is under the battery.
Overall Review: I wanted to like it, it has great features, but i just don't. It's so clumsy, i've had it for several months and i just can't get a grip on it, drop it alot, and have a hard time opening it with 2 hands let alone one. Somebody thought too long about looks and not long enough about function. Oh yeah, I don't like the keys either, difficult to push. I'm going back to my $20 phone i do believe.
Perfect tablet
Pros: -The tablet is like new -Very fast, 256 GB SSD, 8 GB RAM, m5 Processor -Plays Age of Empires really well. -I have a lot of tablets, android, apple, 2nd Gen Surface, Hi10 android/win10 combo. I use none of them now. Only this one. I use Bluestacks if I want an android app on it.
Cons: -I wish the keyboard attached more securely. Like a lock on or something. I make the mistake of thinking I can pick it up by the keyboard sometimes.
Overall Review: Like the previous reviewer, my tablet had 8 GB of RAM instead of 4. I hesitated to get it for a few days because of the 4 GB of RAM reported. Yeah for 8.
Fantastic computer, fantastic price.
Pros: -3 GHz duo core Intel processor -Runs Windows 10 without a problem -4 GB is plenty for a streamlined Windows 10 install -Very surprised how relevant the Core 2 Duo's still are
Cons: 80 GB HDD from this era are lack luster. Np though, swap out for a 120 SSD for $40
Overall Review: I bought this computer for a friends parents because they wanted a computer and did not have a lot of money to spend (they are octogenarians). I had an extra Windows 10 and 240 SSD lying around so I loaded them up. I was amazed how snappy this computer was. Simple office tasks (I installed LibreOffice), web browsing, and playing windows games seemed no different than on my i7-6700k with 32 GB of DDR4. Really was surprised. Was going to buy one of these to put Linux on, just to mess around with that operating system. Then I remember, I already have a couple computers I'm doing that with. Am I addicted?
Great Monitor
Pros: -3840X2160 Rez (4 x 1080p) @ 60hz with DP or HDMI 2.0 -10 bit color -4:4:4 chroma for crisp text -Uses only 64 watts of power even though it's 4x the pixels of a 1080p -USB 3 hub with 3 USB ports. -Display Port (this is what I use on my r9 380) -Play games at 1080p or 1440p and hardly notice its not the native rez -No ghosting -Provides DP, HDMI 2.0, US power, and Korean Power cables
Cons: -Windows is too small to see without increasing size by 150% and this makes is a little blurry. -light bleed on black scenes -can't play most games at 4k with single video card (although this is not that big of deal with this monitor because at 1080p and 1440p the games look great).
Overall Review: This monitor is the best of both worlds. It is TV sized but monitor quality. You can watch anything from 720p to 2160p content and it looks amazing. Lately I've been concerned about power use of my computers and was worried that this monitor was going to be a juice hog, but it is not. My watt meter only reads to 1/10 watts and when the monitor is on standby it reads 0.0 watts. While running it uses from 61 to 66 watts. The red LED standby light and the blue USB port lights in the back are kind of bright when on standby. The red standby light goes off when you shut off the power but the blue USB lights do not (they are on the back of the TV however). I'm very happy with this display but I feel 2160p is too high a rez for a 43" monitor because everything is so tiny. I have to increase windows sizing by 150% but it makes some things blurry (like everything on steam). I think a 1440p 43" monitor would be perfect. The 4:4:4 chroma makes the text crisp and clear. You tube has a lot of small 4K videos to watch and its breathtakingly brilliant. Netflix has very little 4k content (of course there is a lot of 4k skin flicks out there). But 720p, 1080p, and 1440p content looks great on here. They must have some kind of algorithm that compensates well.
Great deal - great bulb
Pros: Inexpensive, nice white light, bright right away*.
Cons: *The light bulbs take about 1 second to come on. They are at there brightest when they do and the light is great. I've found out that this is not uncommon with LED bulbs.
Overall Review: I have other LED lights(different brand) that I put in with multiple light fixtures with non-LED lights and hadn't noticed the fact they too take about 1 second to come on. But next to the compact florescent lights these are far superior in color, brightness, durability and speed to full brightness.
No complaints
I got exactly what I ordered in 2 days. No problems.
