Changed My Mind

Change my FPS skills almost instantly. Wasn't a huge fan of ultra-lights nor these open-mesh designs. But now I can't game without it. I've always thought SteelSeries offered the best software experience for the user... and this mouse is no exception. So that part is a nice bonus.
My gaming precision feels 10x better compared to a ~100 gram gaming mouse. And the switch reaction time on this bad boy is mind blowing. Glides like a feather, fits my hand great for a claw-gripper and the RGB lighting has a nice look through the body. My reaction time and head-shot accuracy in 'Sandstorm' (which is a very hectic & demanding environment...) saw a dramatic boost with this mouse. Unbelievable!
If you FP Shoot... you need to check this one out.
I'm a long-timer "G" diehard but his mouse changed my mind completely!

Almost too good to be true... for the price!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Was looking for an external monitor to connect to my Legion 7i. My desktop 'beast' has a 32 inch TUF Gaming model but for gaming & testing, I wanted a smaller screen size for connection to this laptop and others. This monitor does 165 Hz beautifully, supports FreeSync, has great color reproduction - like you would expect for modern IPS panel, gets real bright and has a deep set of adjustments. It will do HDR as well but I find it looks best with that off. Another sleeper product in a sea of mediocrity. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect gaming monitor for my small, corner-desk arrangement. No bling. No gimmicks. It just works perfectly. RTINGS has a very in-depth and convincing review on the Nitro XF243Y. Reading it convinced me to give it a try... and I am glad that I did. I've always had good experience with Acer monitors in the past and this one is equally impressive for the money spent. Doesn't feel flimsy in the least bit. The base is solid, the mechanical adjustments are smooth and the panel uniformity is excellent.
If you're on a budget but want the absolute best bang for the buck - check it out.
Get it on Sale and win!

Flys under the radar...

Outstanding keyboard. Easy to modify and control with the iCue software. Keys can be sensitive if you're not used to a 'low profile' keyboard - but I am - and this one is very satisfying to type on. Doesn't have that typical mechanical clicking sound, which I tend to like, but on this keyboard - I'm Ok with it. Great tactile feedback and relatively quiet.
Build quality is top-shelf. 3-stage RGB lighting brightness is just way I like it. The scalloped layout of the keys is one thing that attracted me to this keyboard - beyond the low profile configuration - and my typing accuracy became precise quickly in mere hours.
I've played 'Sandstorm' and 'Cold War' for a good length of time and I am thrilled.
Have this keyboard attached to a Legion 7i, so the software integration was a bonus. Moved off of a G815, which is an excellent keyboard in its own right - but Logitech has long-standing software issues that I don't want to deal with on this particular setup. I also like the smaller overall footprint of this unit; the volume scroll bar; the media key arrangement and the uniform lighting of both the primary & secondary functions.
I'm not even using the included palm wrest. Don't need it!
Can't recommend this keyboard enough... especially when it is on Sale. Tremendous value for the money.

Needs Work

Verified Purchase:Yes
Good quality cable in terms of video/audio transfer but the braided sheath WILL pull away from the connector body over time. I have a few of these cables in my home theater system and the sheath defect plagues all of them. Probably not an issue if you plug in once and never move things around ... but I've had to handle them more frequently doing product reviews for BB and this activity has revealed this design weakness.
I've since switched to high quality Utra HDMI cables that aren't AQ and employ more customary, smooth insulating jackets. Audio Quest is the same level of quality they once were...

Packs a serious punch in such a small package. Recording quality is phenomenal. The build quality is Sony, through & through. Even the accompanying software is simple & straight forward.
Would have preferred a USB cable connection arrangement instead of the integrated, retractable USB type A connector but I won't demerit a star for that.

One of Lenovo's best Yoga, 2 in 1 offerings. Battery life is simply astounding. Build quality is second to none. What sold us on this configuration is the up firing sound bar below the screen. Probably the best laptop sound system we've ever experienced. Lenovo is managed to get their bloatware under serious control. Their support/configuration app is streamlined and useful ... for once.
The display, the typing action, the track pad and sheer speed of this computer are all top shelf! Everyone respects Thinkpads and their long history of quality & functionality and this Yoga C940 easily matches that level of quality & execution.

So far so equipped with the correct rops. Something interested parties should know. 300 fps in Splinter Cell Black List. This game has no frame gen tech, that is pure power. Completely maxed graphics 175watts. Nice! PubG maxed graphics, 300 fps, no fake frames here 150watts. I tried to get this beast above 230watts. Cyberpunk, maxed everything, ray trace/ path trace. Wouldn't budge for the watts, yes the fps tanked. My point is, I'm wondering what programs were running when the 12VHPR over heated on the cards that have been reported with such problems. For informational purposes, im running a Montech titan 80+platinum psu 1000watts. It has atx3.1 and pcie5. Will this make a difference, time will tell.
The card comes with an anti sag rod. Not thrilled with it, but it has a magnetic bottom so it wont shift around to easily if you need to move the case. The card was definitely packaged well. I actually snagged an Areo first but needed to wait a bit longer so i canceled that one. It was either white or grey and this card looks awesome in grey. Reminds me of Tomb Raider 2 when Lara took over the Hanger with the plane!
Card stays cool barely hit 60c with Cyberpunk maxed the way it explained earlier. Super sweet!
Interested buyers, get the bestbuy app, save every card you're interested in, to your favs and look them over early in the morning, 4-6am, i snagged my card this way. The blue, "see details", is a possible indicator for in-stock or nearby items. Had some cash back reward and got this card for MSRP and it's a beast and the 5080 is not necessary. Upgraded from an, :( EVGA o7, 2060 super.
Honorable mention!
As always, Best Buy for the win!
Seriously, the fact they let customers login, pre-purchase these hard to come by stock, in some cases, results in same day pickup, customer focused, 1000%. Cant say that for the micro place.

4 out of 5Great Smart Lock with a Few Quirks
By UnkinB
I recently installed the Yale Assure Lock 2 Deadbolt (Black Suede, Wi-Fi, Keypad with Key) and overall, I’m very impressed. It’s a sleek, modern smart lock that adds both style and security to my home. Here are my thoughts:
Pros: Multiple Unlock Options: Keypad, app, Auto-Unlock, and voice assistants (Alexa, Google, Apple HomeKit). Remote Access: Control and monitor the lock from anywhere using the Yale Access App. Auto-Lock Feature: Automatically locks the door when it closes—great for peace of mind. Easy Installation: Took about 20 minutes with just a screwdriver. Clean Design: The keypad is illuminated and fingerprint-resistant, and the lock looks great on the door.

Easy Installation: Took about 20 minutes with just a screwdriver. Clean Design: The keypad is illuminated and fingerprint-resistant, and the lock looks great on the door.
Cons: App Setup Could Be Smoother: No “skip” option during setup walkthroughs, which was a bit annoying. Bulky Interior Unit: The inside part of the lock is larger than expected. Limited to 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi: Doesn’t support 5 GHz networks and only works in the U.S. and Canada. Keypad Behavior: You have to press a confirmation button after entering your code—would prefer auto-unlock after the last digit.
If you're looking for a reliable smart lock with great features and remote access, this is a solid choice. Just be aware of the regional limitations and the slightly bulky design. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone upgrading their home security.

2 out of 5Spend a few extra bucks on an actual smartlock
By Jordan
If you are thinking about a smart lock, and are on a budget, the Yale - Code Keypad Deadbolt is a good option to consider.
When we purchased our home, there was already an existing smartlock. Unfortunately, it was a smartlock from a rental company, so we didn't have what we needed to make personalized changes. So, I explored options and knew that I did not want to change back to a traditional lock.
The opportunity came up to try the Yale - Code Keypad Deadbolt, so I went for it. To start, you don't really get much from an entry level lock like this. I think you are barely getting the bare minimum from a lock like this. So, keep that in mind when shopping for something like this.
One of the biggest setbacks from this is you don't get any app control. This means that there is no bluetooth or wifi connectivity available. You are really only getting a code access lock and a key for backup. If you are wondering if there is a way to turn this into a wifi enabled lock...there isn't. This isn't like a true smart-lock from Yale that has a slot for the wifi module. So, you can't convert it over to a smart-lock.
Another downside is that this lock does NOT have a sensor for the automatic lock feature that most smart-locks come with. The Yale - Code Keypad Deadbolt lock is just programmed to lock automatically after a few seconds, whether the door is closed or not. It really sucks shutting the door and not realizing that the striker is opened and the lock daamajing the door jamb. So, keep that in mind if you do dicide to purchase the Yale - Code Keypad Deadbolt .
Aside from this, the keypad is very responsive, but does feel a bit cheap. So far, I haven't had any issues getting the keypad to unlock.
In my opinion, I would just recommend that you spend teh extra bucks and go with a true smart-lock. The added benefits of a smart-lock are well worth the few extra dollars.

Horrible Review
August 25, 2025
This review is horrible because Yale offers a wide range of actual Smart Locks with IoT connectivity. This design is basic in functionality, is price accordingly and is for those that don't want a Smart Lock but rather, seek key-less convenience. This isn't actually a "Smart Lock" and rightfully so - because Yale doesn't even brand it as "Smart". A little bit of advanced research would have aided in your review... ; )

3 out of 5Great Deal, Mid-Range Performance
By AlessandroD
Don’t get me wrong — this laptop is super powerful, and you don’t have to worry about whether it’ll run next-gen games. The price is insanely good (I got mine for $999).
That said, performance-wise, it’s only around the level of an RTX 5060 Ti — which isn’t bad, but considering that a desktop 5060 Ti costs way less, it’s a bit disappointing. You can unlock undervolting to squeeze out a bit more performance and improve heat management, but it takes some tweaking and isn’t straightforward for everyone.
Other downsides include the screen being locked at 240 Hz, the battery lasting around four hours or less depending on what you’re doing, and formatting? Forget it. The BIOS has VMD enabled — and the worst part? It’s hidden. You’ll need to go into the BIOS and press Ctrl + S to deactivate it.
Fan and heat management could definitely be better out of the box, but honestly, you get what you pay for. As for the speakers… I could probably buy better ones on SHEIN or AliExpress.
Overall, I’m not complaining — it’s been a great deal from the start, and I don’t plan on changing laptops for the next 5–8 years. Final score: 7/10.

3.1 specs are presented to make this card - what they call - future proof. That said, saturating a PCI 3.0 link isn't even a thing yet - 3.1 is simply a marketing push. Believe it or not, this card performs just as well at 3.0 x 8 as it does if allowed to link at 3.0 x 16.
