Excellent HDD
on November 11, 2025
Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
I included this HDD in my first pc build. I use it to store my photo and video archives. It is a fast drive, and lives up to its specs. I have found it to be very reliable. I was able to get it at a very good price. I am so impressed by it that I bought a second one, that I have put into an external drive housing. I use that as a backup drive. If you want a fast HDD, you can't do better than this one!

Great for amateur photographers and artists
on November 11, 2025
Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
This laptop is great for amateur photographers and artists. Its 2-in-1 design and touch-screen make it ideally suited for editing photos and creating artwork, especially when paired with the proper HP touch pen. The display is high resolution and of excellent quality. It has the 16:10 aspect ratio preferred for photo editing and artwork. It has an ample number of powerful ports. The back-lighted keyboard is very good, and the keys are very responsive with a larger size making errors in keystrokes less likely.
The sound is good, although the grills to either side of the keyboard are not for the speakers - they are for ventilation. The speakers are actually on the front edge of the laptop. The SSD in this laptop is actually amazing in its speed - typically ~6000MB/s! I was lucky enough to get this when it was marked down substantially, and consider it to be one of my best purchases this year!

Great portable external drive

Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
This drive is very thin and light, perfect for traveling in a small laptop bag. It is fast. I get 1000MB/s with it connected to a fast USB C 3.2 port on either my laptop or my desktop. I use it to transfer files between my desktop and my laptop - mostly photos and videos. I also use it to do backups of my laptop. I like it so much that I bought a second one.

Good software with possible installation issues
on November 1, 2025
Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a good software package with many useful apps included. But you may encounter installation issues, as I did. If either of the two serial numbers (keys) are flagged as invalid, you have to go to the nearest Best Buy physical store to have your purchase cancelled, and get a new digital product. The problem can not be fixed via chat or phone. Also, Corel will not provide you with a solution. I spent a week before I was told what I had to do.
Also, the installation of the many apps can be intimidating to one not experienced with folders and file structures. The installation sets up a sub-sub directory that contains a number of folders. Inside most of them is an executable file used to install a particular program in the package. The purchaser has to go to each in turn to do the complete installation. Be sure to install the PaintShop Pro program first - it is the main one, and needs a valid serial number to proceed.
Despite my problems installing the package I would recommend purchase of this package, particularly if you can get it on sale. I find it to be a very useful set of tools.

Excellent, solid, compact, and fast
on October 28, 2025
Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
The first thing I noticed was is how amazingly compact and solid this external SSD drive is. I use it for keeping backups of my laptop - I have two of these drives and alternate between them. The drive is very fast - typically 1000MB/s on my fast USB 3.2 connection. The drive is very thin, and takes up very little space in the outer pocket of my laptop bag. It is excellent value.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this bag for my new HP Omnibook X Flip 2-in-1 16" laptop. The laptop is a perfect fit, and is well protected inside the bag. Because this laptop has a 16-10 profile, it is a little higher inside the bag but still fits well. There is enough space in the side pouch for a compact mouse. The bag has very good construction. I consider it to be a good buy.

5 out of 5Great retro style boombox
By Greg
I bought this boombox on a deal of the day for half price and it was worth every penny. I like the style. I was looking for a cassette player to play my old cassettes and it works great for that. I also like having the radio. So it gives everything I had on my old boombox from the 80s. But what sold me in this one was the rechargeable built in battery and ability to connect to other devices using Bluetooth or audio jack so I can use my MP3 player or phone with it. I also wanted to use an sd card with my favorite songs.
I definitely like this player a lot. From some of the reviews I was a bit concerned about the sound quality but It sounds good to me. I think it has good sound and it was better than I thought it would be from the reviews I read. It sounds good. It is not up to the high quality sound systems or theater sound systems but unless you need that it sounds great and sounds as good or better than any boombox I had before. It plays my music just fine.
Today we had a family get together and I was requested to bring it outside to provide the music. I Bluetooth connected it to my phone and played pandora through it. People were impressed and a few guests took turns connecting their phones to it to play their music through it and we had a number of people singing along. It proved to be a big hit with everyone and I was told by a few they were wanting to buy one also.

Cons:
- On mine the sound needles do not move. Not sure if mine is broken or if they just don’t work normally. This is not a major problem for me since they don’t affect my music but it would be cool to watch the needles bounce to the music.
- I love that the player has a mini sd card reader. However, there is no random song play option. It also does not have playlists so I basically have to always start at the same song and forward or reverse through until I find the song I want. If I need those options the workaround is to connect my phone or MP3 player to the unit and just play from them.

I Was looking for something my husband could use to play all his old cassette tapes. That’s it. & that’s exactly what I got. Works great. Very functional & meets the need. However, We Realized after using it, that it would be nice if He could record the tape to digital through a USB or auxiliary plug; There are no other inputs on this device. But I wasn’t Looking for it originally so not the products fault.

It is possible to use the output from the earphone jack and an auxiliary cable connected to a computer to digitize your tapes! You can use the free software Audacity to do this. I've done it with my boombox.

4 out of 5Good lamp despite slow charging
By vnda
Battery takes a while to charge. Several hours. Light lasts a couple hours so it’s best to have it plugged in. Quality is good. Base is heavy enough to be stable on the table. Light is fairly bright and the 3 levels of intensity is good the light bar can be folded all the way down and allows a full range of positions. The arm tension is good as it is easy to adjust and doesn’t move once set. For the priceI paid it was a good deal. The only downer is that it takes so long to recharge. It your battery is depleted, you can’t use the light until the battery is partially charged. It will just turn off. At first I thought it was defective but the USB charge current is only 500 ma. I guess it can’t charge the battery and run the lamp at the same time.

The lamp is light and portable. It is bright and three levels of brightness. The downside is it takes at least a few hours to fully charge, and the charge does not hold very long. It can be frustrating when the battery is low and the supplied USB cable is not capable of providing enough power.

2 out of 5Well it looks good on paper:(
By BudsPro
Samsung's latest entry into the 8 inch class of tablets is unfortunately a bit short. This not a terrible tablet, but it is a low budget tablet. Initial price is too high. This tablet looks good on paper has 64GB ROM, 4GB of Ram, but the GPU performs poorly and the screen shutters from page to page, The screen refresh rate is poor. The wifi says its dual band and fast but did not perform well. The display is just OK. It does not have screen sleep when cover is closed. It cannot vibrate, and has no fingerprint sensor. This tablet will not do well with games. It does have a good battery, fast charging and USB C. It also has Android 11. It barely functions as a reader. With just a little more effort from Samsung and this could have been a decent successor to the TAB S2.

This is an excellent tablet for the price point offered. People complaining about this tablet seem to want a $500 tablet for under $200, but life doesn't work that way.
This is a really nice and very sturdy tablet. I LOVE the size, just small enough to throw in most jacket pockets, but big enough to work well as an e-reader or to watch video. This tablet does exactly what I want it to do.

5 out of 5Loved Tablet
By Angela
I have a light weight, touch screen, 360 degree laptop that came with a pen so I didn't think I needed a tablet for a few years. Until my I started to want something even lighter to watch videos on and take to college to write notes with.
I absolutely love my tablet! Writing with the pen feels really smooth and responsive. I love that it can turn my handwriting to text to make it easier to read since my handwriting can sometimes look like chicken scratch.
Watching videos or reading webtoons/ebooks is comfortable and resolution is great for me.
The only thing is that browsers seem to be slow, but that's something I can overlook.
After a year my tablet is still working great. I still watch most of my videos on it. I still love using it to write just about anything on it. Battery life is around 6-8 hours when watching videos. I hope it continues to work great for more years as I don't really enjoy changing or upgrading things that work great.

How long does it take to download the game provided with this bundle for a typical household (one with download speed capped at about 10Mbps)?
I did some looking up on the web and found that a speed of 10 Mbps corresponds to 4.5 GB/hr. So a 45GB download takes 45GB / 4.5 GB/hr = 10 hr. This of course assumes that the download speed remains fixed at 10 Mbps.

What fraction of a major game is included on a physical disk? Is installation aided significantly by having a physical disk?
I just learned that you can get this information in the "Queue" screen, where it details the size of the content from the Disk, and the size of the content from the Network (what has to be downloaded over the internet). What has to be downloaded over the internet does indeed vary from title to title, but significant gains can be obtained by using physical media for those of us with relatively modest internet speeds. I just installed "The Witcher 3 - Complete Edition", and all the content came from the disk - and the install was completed in less than a half hour! To me this is a compelling reason (and happy news) to use physical disks!

Does the storage have solid state drive SSD or is it hard drive
It is a 1TB HDD. It spins at 5400RPM. It is connected with a SATA III connector that gives it a significant boost over the Xbox One, which uses a SATA II connection.

Is this ssd or sshd.
The Xbox One X has a 1TB HDD, It spins at 5400rpm. However, because it uses a SATA III connection, it operates faster than the drive of the Xbox One, which uses a SATA II connection. It is NOT an SSD, nor an SSHD.

Do i have to buy digital games or regular xbox games
You can buy either the digital version or the physical version. What is installed on your machine will be the same either way. I often find physical versions to be on sale or on clearance at considerable discounts.

If I order this from the Best Buy website, can I get it delivered to my home, or do I have to pick it up from the store?
You can have it shipped to your home for free! And Best Buy generally gets it to you very quickly! That's how I got mine, and almost everything I have purchased from Best Buy in the last 3 months.

New gamer here! Do I need any type of hard drives to hold more game, etc? And if so what is recommended?
You should plan on getting a usb external hard drive, 4TB or greater. Western Digital and Seagate have good units at reasonable prices. If you will be subscribing to Xbox's subscription services, and taking advantage of the many deals on games at Best Buy and elsewhere, you will fill up the 1TB in the console very quickly. I've only had my unit for 4 days, and it is already more than half full!

Revel in immersive audio with this retro-style Ion Boombox Deluxe portable stereo. Dual full-range speakers deliver impressive sound reproduction, while Bluetooth technology, USB playback, an AM FM radio and a built-in cassette player offer vast entertainment options. This Ion Boombox Deluxe portable stereo comes with a long-lasting rechargeable battery for convenience.
Can it connect to wireless earbuds?
No, it can not. It has bluetooth ONLY for input - so you can stream music from your cell phone to it (and it does a great job with this). But you can not output using bluetooth. You can, however, connect using the headphone out - and the quality of that output is first rate. You will need to get wired earbuds to do this.
