Pros: Image quality was perfect out the box since day 1

Cons: Blindingly bright. Turned down the brightness way low. Speakers are meh, but I didn't buy the monitor for the speakers.

Overall Review: Had this for over year. I might buy another one :x

Most Critical Review

Should've kept my original Nexus

ASUS Google Nexus 7 FHD (2013) Android Tablet -  2 GB RAM Quad-Core CPU 16 GB Flash (Wi-Fi Only)
ASUS Google Nexus 7 FHD (2013) Android Tablet - 2 GB RAM Quad-Core CPU 16 GB Flash (Wi-Fi Only)

Pros: -Price -Great Pixel Density = Great viewing experiencing -The dual stereo speakers is a huge step forward from last year's model

Cons: I received my Nexus 7 (2013 model) a month ago and I have been experiencing issues with the product since purchase. I figured I would hold on to the device a bit longer because Google and Asus has acknowledged that there was an issue regarding the touch screen, ghost touches, among other touch-screen related issues. Since I've purchased the item, Google has released a few updates in attempt to resolve the touchscreen issues, but I've seen no changes. I'm convinced no other software updates will resolve the issues I'm experiencing because it seems more and more like a hardware related issue. For example, I would press the home button (centered) and it would click the app on my dock to the far left. I would click back button and it would click on home or recent apps. Basically, I don't get the correct response.

Overall Review: Despite the hundreds of articles I've read about the Nexus 7 having screen related issues, I figured I'd take a gamble and upgrade to this model. I'm starting the risk is too high. Look up anywhere on google regarding "Nexus 7 touch screen issue" and you'll find hundreds of articles and videos displaying terrible touchscreen response.

Bought 2. Both had middle click issues.

Logitech G402 910-004069 Black Wired Optical Hyperion Fury FPS Gaming Mouse with High Speed Fusion Engine
Logitech G402 910-004069 Black Wired Optical Hyperion Fury FPS Gaming Mouse with High Speed Fusion Engine

Pros: Great form factor for strong grip while playing shooter. Extremely fast response time. Medium length cord (not braided though). Can customize to have many different profiles depending on which game you're playing

Cons: I'd like to point out I'm a huge Logitech fan. I've owned and recommended the Logitech MX518 to all my friends and family and have ever since bought into the Logitech family. But this..is not what I expected from a company like Logitech Both middle clicks stopped working altogether. One middle click wont work unless you press down with lots of force for it to response and the other stopped scrolling and clicking altogether. Sorry but I can't recommend this mouse if it's lifespan only last over 6 months.

Overall Review: If you look at other reviewers on Newegg, you'll see that I'm not alone. This is a serious issue and Logitech needs to investigate this. I really wish I could've given it a 5 star review, but I can't this time :(

Plastic Piece of Cr*p

SMS Audio STREET by 50 Blue SMS-ONWD-BLU Wired On-Ear Headphones
SMS Audio STREET by 50 Blue SMS-ONWD-BLU Wired On-Ear Headphones

Pros: Looks great.

Cons: Broke within 3 months of normal usage. Put them on, take them off, Put them on, take them off. Then, it broke. The plastic holding the headband and earcups together snapped in half.

Overall Review: Look elsewhere. You're much better spending your money on another product.

Cheap cheap cheap

SMS Audio Black SMS-WD-BLK 3.5mm Connector Over-Ear STREET by 50 Wired Headphone
SMS Audio Black SMS-WD-BLK 3.5mm Connector Over-Ear STREET by 50 Wired Headphone

Pros: Great design, android/iphone in-line microphone. removable cable.

Cons: For the price, you should expect a lot more from this product. Unfortunately, that is not the case. -Cheap plastic design. Broke after about 6 months of use. The headset does not stretch at all. at all..So everytime you wear/remove the headset, you're slowing breaking the plastic band around the headset. -Sound reproduction is mediocre at best.

Overall Review: I do not recommend this buy. It may look very cool to wear and seem like a more affordable alternative to Beats, but you are much better looking else where. 0 Stars if possible.

Nonexistent bass

Corsair Vengeance 1300 3.5mm Connector Circumaural Analog Gaming Headset
Corsair Vengeance 1300 3.5mm Connector Circumaural Analog Gaming Headset

Pros: Comfortable and large cable. Mic quality is good.

Cons: The biggest problem I had with these headphones is that the bass is nonexistent. I played a few FPS and found sounds to sound just awful. I couldn't hear footsteps, grenades, or any kind of bass for that matter. Treble is on high with these..

Overall Review: I see that the other reviewers had noted something about tweaking the settings, but the problem I see with that is, products should work right out the box. Products should work for us, not the other way around.
