Great service and well done!

Best buy made it easy to replace the screen protector. I consider myself quite handy, but there is a definite learning curve for screen protector installs to avoid bubbles and dust, etc. The associate got it right and there is a guarantee. Recommended.

Do more with Samsung Galaxy S10's bold form and intelligent battery, and a camera and processor that can do almost anything. Galaxy S10 features a cinematic screen and more power. Its pro-grade camera with optical zoom ensures effortless capture, and ultrasonic fingerprint ID offers a new level of security, unlocking with a tap of the screen.

Great phone, but passed by the S20
on March 18, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
Enjoyed this phone for a year before getting an S20 Ultra. Camera is good, but facial recognition "eh" at best. Interface works well. Battery life surprisingly good. A great deal now as a leftover phone.

Mighty. Smart.Nest Cam IQ is a seriously sharp outdoor security camera. It has brains to tell you when it sees a person and Supersight to show you an extra clear close-up tracking shot of who's there. It can even recognize familiar faces with Nest Aware.

Very good cameras. Expensive & some privacy issues
on March 18, 2020
Posted by: CaptainObvious
Verified Purchase:Yes
Very good video quality. Zooms in automatically on a person. Night vision is quite good. Sound & motion detection also quite good. Downsides are cost (Buy on sale) and potential issues with Google and privacy. Too long to get into here, but be aware.

So far, so good
on March 12, 2020
Posted by: CaptainObvious
Verified Purchase:Yes
Having gone from an S10 to an S20 I do see a difference. Faster, smoother and a better camera. No 5G yet, but at least I am ready. Battery life seems superior and Samsung & Best Buy made it easy to migrate from old phone.
Face recognition in all but detent light is still "eh". Accidental touch control seems a little behind Apple, but it could just be me.
Too early to say with certainty, but looks like a winner so far. This said, without the trade in allowance and Samsung cash I likely would not have gotten it due to price. They make a good effort to retain customers as this is my 5th Galaxy phone.

Good, but can be tricky to install
on December 13, 2019
Posted by: CaptainObvious
Verified Purchase:Yes
Used this to replace a stock Galaxy protector. I've installed a few, but used Best Buy this time. The young man, who installed quite a few as he put it, had to play with it awhile to avoid air bubbles and the like. Worth having done at the store due to an inevitable learning curve.

Great washer, but impossible to read display
on October 18, 2019
Posted by: CaptainObvious
Verified Purchase:Yes
This replaced an 11 year old LG I was going to repair but decided against once parts costs was factored in. Cycles can be long, but that's normal with low water use machines. Still have not figured out why I'd need WiFi for a washer, but there it is. More to break.
Pros: Quiet, efficient and capable. Does a good job with little water and wrings most of it out prior to drying.
Cons: Tiny, hard to read display and switches. Even younger family members with good guys had to get up close and stare for awhile.

Good sound - IF they fit
on October 18, 2019
Posted by: CaptainObvious
Verified Purchase:Yes
Good sound and well functioning, but with one caveat: They do not fit everyone. I may have strange ears, but no combination of tips allowed these to remain firmly inlace during exercise. Routinely fell on the gym floor. Unfortunately, there was no way to test these before buying. I had to return them. They fit another
family member well who had no need for them.

All these did was fall out.
on September 20, 2019
Posted by: CaptainObvious
Verified Purchase:Yes
Great sounding headphones, but no matter which of the inserts I tried they constantly fell out. The silicone "ears" are a good idea, but are quite wiggly. Could not wear at the gym. Maybe I have weird ears, but these just would not stay in. Had to return them. I really wish there was a way to test before buying.

1 out of 5Disappointed
By Stephen
from Shelbyville, KY
I was expecting more since it is a Zagg product. The screen protector is thin and flimsy and seems to be slightly too large for the S-10 screen. I followed the directions as best I could and ended up with too many bubbles - which seem to be impossible to remove. I cannot recommend this product.

1 out of 5Terrible Product
By DanielleF
This is a terrible product. It did not fit length wise. I didn't expect it to fit the edges but the fact it didn't fit the length by at least 1/4 of an inch is not acceptable.
As others posted, the bubbles were very difficult to remove.
I would not recommend this.

I was really looking forward to it after seeing the movie three times in theaters. Unfortunately, I noticed that the steelbook was dented after I unwrapped it at home. Don’t think I’ll be picking up pre-orders for steel books from Best Buy anymore.

Is this drive suckable?
Did you mistype? I highly doubt any drive is "suckable".
If you mean "stackable" I am not sure, but would encourage some measure of air circulation. Heat is the enemy of most electronics.
