What even is this?

Verified Purchase:Yes
I don't know what this is. It was included with the purchase of my printer, I think. I haven't used it. I don't plan on using it. I'm writing this review because I keep getting emails asking me to.

It was refurbished, and that showed.
on June 25, 2018
Posted by: jake
Verified Purchase:Yes
It worked fine, but the internal piece for the power adapter wasn't properly fastened, so the cable wiggled. No big deal. However, the supplied power cable didn't "bite" at all, so even a light breeze would disconnect the printer from the power source. I took it in for that and even the guy at the counter told me "That's what you get for buying refurbished."
Thankfully, I had the GSP so they replaced it with something similar at no extra cost.

My first SSD
on June 25, 2018
Posted by: jake
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you're like me, you've researched the differences between 850/860/950/960 which means that this review isn't super necessary. Speeds don't really change much. That's because we're pretty much at the peak of SATA's capabilities. Warranty for the *60 SSD(s) is half that of the *50, but there's like more read/writes or something like that. Just do some research and find what's best for you.

They're $10 earphones.
on August 18, 2017
Posted by: jake
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have been using skull candy earphones for years. Mainly for around-the-house work, or to not annoy people while messing around on my devices. I had the Smokin' Buds and those were great, but I realized that I shouldn't keep spending $30 every year or so to replace them. So i gave these a try. Theyre pretty great for $10!
Fitment is mediocre, but I didnt put much effort into choosing the right silicone tips since I use these in low impact environments.
Sound quality is pretty much what you'd expect from skull candy. Good bass with average mids and highs.
They have a play/pause button on the left wire, if you need or want that sort of thing. I'm pretty sure that that same controller has a microphone for phone calls, too.
Downsides?
I'm not sure how long they'll last. But for $10 I'm not too worried about breakage.
The aux jack doesnt have a right angle like the smokin buds do -- thats just a minor personal issue.
Thats about it so far. Good value for money.

Cool movie.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm not sure how to review a movie that I bought. Do I actually review the movie? Because Best Buy isn't really the place for that. But the Blu-Ray worked just fine. I don't know what else to say.

Exactly what I wanted

Verified Purchase:Yes
I was considering going with a knock off version of this product but I'm very happy I didnt. GoPro themselves make this so it guaranteed to fit and function the way you need. Since the camera is more exposed sound quality is greatly improved. The product also includes a protective glass cover for the lens of the camera.

Comfy

Sound good. Only complaint is that the "L" and "R" indicators were hard to find. Once I discovered I had them in the wrong way, and put them in the right way, they sounded much better and didn't fall out.

Any benefit to choosing this modem router combo instead of buying the two separate? I worry if one goes bad I have to replace both as a combo.

If you buy them separately, you have the option to upgrade one or the other. But if you're not an "enthusiast" per se, then the 2-in-1 combos should suffice.
