Stunning Looks, Great Build Quality.

An amazing watch that is stunning in design, visually pleasing to look at with a great display, makes me want to look at the time again and again even when I didn't have to. After years of using a smartphone as a primary watch I carry, this little gem retires my phone off of the duty and deserves a spot in my wrist any day. Many has criticized this watch for it's battery life. In my experience, it has been lasting a whole day, at least the 16 hours during the day that I am awake to play with it. The rest of the 8 hours, I am glad to use this watch in my night stand as a bed time watch where it charges on it's practical, yet functional wireless charger. Kudos to Motorola on that. Many of us geeks have concerns about the older TI processor within. However I can assure you that it does not matter as long as the watch functions its day to day tasks as intended in a fast and fluid motion. I have not encountered any hiccups thus far. Moreover, the Snapdragon 400 powered watches haven't proved to have much better battery life in contrast either. Thus, it is my opinion that one should not base their purchase of this watch on that perspective alone. Leather strap has been comfortable in my above medium sized hand, and it does not weigh a ton in my hand either. If you adore a beautiful time piece in your wrist, that can display time and do much more, this is the smart-watch that you have been waiting for.
My Best Buy number: 2799851016
What's great about it: Tasteful Design, Easy on the eyes.
What's not so great: Not so round screen.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Use this Klipsch ProMedia 3-piece speaker system to enjoy brilliant sound when playing games, listening to music or watching videos on your computer.

I have had these amazing speakers for well over 3 years. I bought them back when they were reintroduced to the market after a decade of being discontinued at stores. Having heard a lot of positive reviews and after reading countless online raves about this set, it was a no brainer that I took one home the moment I saw one at best buy.
Sound quality - The best possible PC speakers you can get for your money. The highs sound crystal clear, the mids are precise and hard hitting bass is just not easy to get right. However these Klipsch's live up to their name and deliver on what they promise unlike many other gaming brands like Corsair, Logitech etc. The sound is very well balanced and the bass does not overpower or drown the musicality of the satellite speakers which is a rare thing to come by.
Build quality - The solid feel and heft to each speakers is a good indication of attention paid build materials. However I still hold a grudge against the volume knob which with time creates cracking noises and chirps ( mine after a year of use) as you increase or decrease the volume. The Best Buy's demo unit is a testament to that as it has been fiddled around by passers by a lot. Also mine completely stopped working after 3 years of solid use. I have no complaints, since I had a great time shaking the walls off and making my apartment neighbors complain most of times while I felt the vibration travel through the floor where I had the privilege to not just hear the music, but also to feel the rumble as well.
Will I buy again? Yes, and I would also recommend to anyone who is willing to buy PC speaker for multimedia use. If you want the best sounding PC speaker that is not hard on your wallet, yet outstanding on performance, this is it.
What's great about it: Amazing sound. Balanced tonal range. Hard hitting bass.
What's not so great: Longetivity.

Enjoy immersive, detailed audio with these Beats urBeats MHD02AM/A earbud headphones, which feature high-quality drivers that create crisp cross-spectrum sound. A sealed construction with multiple sets of ear tips blocks ambient noise.

Terrible at best. Poor Sound Quality, Cheap Build.

Sound Quality - I know this review may sound harsh, but being an audio enthusiast who pays attention to detail and every nuances in music, I can tell you without hesitation, this ear-bud is over-hyped at best. Although for many users who just upgrade from their cheap ear-buds this may look like a step up and audio heaven, However I can assure you, once you hear more products and take some time to research, you will be sure to reward yourself with a product that is well worth of your hard earned cash. I had the first generation iBeats ear-buds which performed well over this current generation ear-buds, however one thing that still remains constant is, these beats earphones just cannot produce the vivid, detailed sound that excels in tonal clarity. Instead they sound extremely flat where highs are muted, and even the bass that they are known for being rattling most of the times. Unlike the old ear-buds, these new ones come with less number of ear tips as well. Penny savings for the beats I guess. In comparison, my HTC One m8's ear-buds and galaxy s5's ear-buds sound excellent in tonal range.
Build quality - There is absolutely no reason to upgrade your earphones if you have a Galaxy s5 or HTC One m8's, as they come packaged with ear-buds that are superior in build quality than these. Also these beats ear-buds are notoriously known for breaking few weeks to few months of time, forcing you to buy expensive extended warranty packages or lose your capital that you have spent on these earphones.
Will I recommend this product? No. This ear-buds has been over-hyped at best and you can find much more capable product that excels in sound quality as well as build quality and looks for the equal price or less often times. Why pay more for the namesake? The Bose IE2, Monster iSport victory, Skullcandy Ink'd2, Skullcandy Titan, Sol Republic JAX are some of the headphones that can handily beat these in sound and build at equivalent or less cost.

Stunning Design, Practical Size, Top End Specs

An amazing phone worthy of your palm. Stunning design, Solid aluminum build quality, Superb built in speakers that is better than any other, Gorgeous display from any angle and highest possible specs on the internal hardware for the moment. If you are intending to buy a smartphone that is purely going to be used as a phone, this is it. However, there is one flaw. The camera, although takes great pictures, is a little too less in megapixels. 4 Ultra-pixels as they call it is good enough to take pictures for your daily online use, however if you want to zoom in and crop on those pictures, you will quickly realize that this camera isn't up to the task. That being said, it is still an amazing phone to be used as a smartphone. Every time you pickup the device it rewards you with a great feeling that you have paid for a product that is worthy of your cash. As for the software side of the device, HTC Sense, it is fluid and smooth. It can be due to the newest hardware within. However the same cannot be said for the Samsung Galaxy s5, which felt sluggish and underpowered at all times. If you are in the market for a high end device this season, be sure to give it a shot. Worthy hardware that can compete with iPhone's aesthetics, accompanied with the practical and fluid software makes this my favorite gadget at the moment.

With sealed, water-resistant housing, these Monster iSport Victory earbud headphones prevent damage due to sweat, so you can listen to your favorite adrenaline-boosting tracks while you work out. The SportClip design keeps the headphones firmly in place.

Exceptional Clarity, Hard hitting Bass - Balanced

An amazing in ear headphones with exceptional clarity and depth of bass. Unlike the popular beats lineup, this one has a solid thumping bass that does not drown out the mids or highs. Music seems more enjoyable listening through these and I enjoy re listening to tracks all over again just to hear what sounds have I missed before and did not know existed. I've always been a fan of UE series and had the UE900's which audiophiles rave before breaking them accidentally, and I must confess, I enjoy listening to music through this iSport headphone more any day at a fraction of the cost. Using it in conjunction with the new HTC m8, and they are phenomenal. Be sure to buy it with the extended warranty, as these do not have a solid history yet, and the build quality seems a notch below expected.
