Good tablet if your on a budget.
on May 17, 2016
Posted by: Closingracer
This tablet is pretty good at the price point Acer is selling it as. The MSRP is $139.99 and I would buy this product at that price point if I was looking for a tablet. The screen is an IPS display with a resolution of 1200x800. The resolution isn't the greatest but at $139 I am not complaining about it at all. From what I can tell at this price point of $150 or below you would be hard pressed to find a tablet with an IPS display which I find the best one to use out of LCD displays since it allows to have better viewing angles, better color saturation and just a brighter display in general. Out of the box it seems to have a screen protector already installed which if it is than it is a nice touch specially for a tablet at this price. The build quality isn't the best but it is good specially for what you are getting. The tablet comes with a Media Tek quad core cpu, 32GB on internal storage that can be expanded with a micro sd card and 2GB of RAM. I like the fact they also included 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage vs using 8GB or 16GB of storage.
All in all if you're looking to buy a tablet but don't necessarily want break the bank this is probably one of the better tablets out there that is 10 inches and under $150 dollars.

Love this laptop

I have always been a Windows user but I needed something last all day in school and this is a great device for great battery life. I find it very easy to use getting used to it after only a few hours and love it. I have a 17 inch Windows laptop but now is only used to play games on. I would suggest this version with the 256GB SSD because 128GB is quite small but usable if that is all you can afford. I love that I can use this with my iPhone and that most of my stuff works on my macbook like Microsoft Office.

I typically hate screen protectors and I have tried a glass one for the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 from Spigen and hated it because it didn't feel smooth like the phone glass. I had a reward coupon for $20 so I figured i'll give this one a shot since I have a niece who uses my phone and as such figured I'm better off getting one. I have a gold iPhone 6 Plus so I like that this matches. I did the installation in the Bestbuy Store that I bought it in and was quite easy. Got one small hair particle under the screen but oh well since looks good.

Love these headphones!

Posted by: Closingracer
from Brooklyn, New York
I had a pair of Beats solo 2 in Red and lost them a few days ago so I was looking for a new pair of headphones I was looking on amazon because it is cheaper but I knew I was always going to buy them at Bestbuy because A) the one in Union Square in Manhattan is basically open 24/7 ( they do close for a bit on Saturday and Sunday) and B) I generally like the place more then Amazon. I find the employees at the ones near me at least are good and don't try to a hard upsell. I got these headphones for $219 since they were on Amazon for that price so after tax it was $239 and these are a steal at the price. They sound exactly the same as the wired ones but with the advantage of no wires! these last quite a while on a charge and when they die unlike the studios and the studio wireless you can simply plug in and listen to music even when the battery dies.

They are ok

I lost the pair of included earbuds that came with my iPhone 6 Plus. I decided to buy these to replace those because these are cheap. I have way better headphones and earphones but these I got so I can just throw them into my pocket and I don't care if I lose them. For the price of $10 these sound decent but not anything I would spend much more on. These almost hurt my ears at louder volumes but at lower these do the job good enough.

Great pair of headphones
on July 23, 2015
Posted by: Closingracer
from Brooklyn, New York
I found these on Amazon for $81 dollars but I wanted them now so I called Bestbuy and they price matched them. Also got the warranty for only $14.99 which is great because I can just walk into any Bestbuy and get them replaced should I need to. Bluetooth does mess with the sound quality a bit since your'e compressing the music file even more assuming your'e using MP3 or another similar format. The highs are a bit rolled off but the Bass and Mids are really good. The Bass doesn't bleed into the mids at all.

Great pair of earphone

Posted by: Closingracer
from Brooklyn, New York
I don't think at only looking at sound quality it isn't worth it but with Bose customer service and the fact these don't go digging in your ear canal makes these great pair of headphones you can buy for $129. As far as sound goes I think it could personally use a bass boost and the mids a little more front but I do like the treble not being high like they are in the beats solo hd ( solo 2 are pretty good). These do sound great with any type of music though

Keep the action going with the Xbox One Play & Charge Kit. Recharge while you play or afterwards, even when your Xbox is in standby. The long-lasting rechargeable battery fully charges in under 4 hours. Say goodbye to disposable batteries and having to swap them out in the middle of a game.

Overall I like this product because you don't have to waste money on batteries and now it comes with a Micro USB to charge vs the proprietary port they used on the 360 controller. While I think $24.99 is a bit pricy for the battery pack it is still worth it in the long run since you'll save that money in not buying batteries

How Often Used:Daily
These do cost $299 but these are a great pair of headphones. The sound quality is one of the best for the price if you like a more lively sound vs a more neutral sound. These are one of the most compact around ear headphones I have seen and love that they fold. These are very Stylish headphones and also kills Beats headphones in sound

Not what I expected
By SetAside7823
The sound quality is OK but for the cost, it should be magnificent. Also the buttons controls don't control very much. Again for the cost, I should be a able to a answer calls, play/pause music, skip tracks, fast forward and remind as well as change the volume... I expected more for the money.

too expensive for the sound quality
By Raul
I been a big fan of the LG tone Bluetooth headsets so i decided to buy the 750's since I already owned the 700's so bad experience with the 750 I was hopping to get better sound quality with them but bad experience so I returned them I bought the latest version the infinite hopping to get much more quality but nothing I mean these are great headphones in the way of hardware and I keep them for over a week trying different modes and different music players with equalizers but nothing I mean if you don't care about a great bass go for it... But I you do love Heavy bass don't even think about buying these headphones...

Disappointed in this purchase. Item was also priced incorrectly on the display (shown as being less than purchase price was). Now I need to make additional trip to store to return despite staff that assisted me assuring me that this would fit the MACBOOK Air 13" when it does not.

Battery lasts only 30 minutes when playing games which is what it is meant to be able to do as a gaming computer as advertised.

Protects well but cracks too easily!!!!
By Ritz
too expensive! On my 3rd screen since 7/19/15!!!
I feel like Since we have bought the screen from best buy it verizon that they will have us in the computer and should give us an immediate replacement! Waiting for them to mail out the replacement is ridiculous and not at all customer friendly! Because your iPhone screen is totally unprotected while you wait for their replacement!!! This is why I would not recommend it to friends!!! Too costly and time consuming and a huge inconvenience and hassle! I hate the way it is set up!!!

I have had this product for about 3-4 days and absolutely love it! its super thin and portable. It has a great keyboard and overall really fast machine. BUT the only thing that bothers me is the color. Only reason why i gave it 4 stars. I am actually thinking of returning the item and repurchasing once different color options become available. I just feel the current color is fit for women rather than men.

Great attempt by HP, but battery is dismal!
By Doug
I waited months for the lightest and thinnest 13" laptop with a Intel core i7. It has many terrific features; size, weight, awesome display, keyboard, etc. But for my uses, the negatives are too much to overcome; TERRIBLE Battery life (I have turned off Bluetooth, turned down display brightness, using power management settings, etc.) yet I am lucky to get 2.5 hours of web surfing and streaming of Netflix! Charging cord is long and bulky for travel. Audio is crisp and clear, but volume is insufficient if there is any background noise in the room at all.
I guess it is back to MacAir; as much as I wanted to get onto Windows 10. Extremely disappointed in HP's claim of 9 hours of battery life. Do they not test their prototypes out first?

While battery life with my MacBook pro is better This isn't that bad... I got around 6-7 hours with it and I was streaming Netflix and web surfing pretty much. A lot more than turning off Bluetooth, lowering brightness can affect the battery life. Low wifi signal can be an issue, high cpu usage and etc. I would also use it for a few days and see if its the same issue.

Great looking laptop, horrible battery life.
By byubangal
Laptop is one of the best looking laptops you can buy but the battery life is horrible. If you are running bluetooth, wifi, and your screen is bright; you WILL drop battery life at the rate of 1% every 3 to 4 mins. I've never seen a laptop drop power so fast. Other than that, laptop is great but I will be going back to Spectre 360
