If it breaks, DO NOT REMOVE IT!
on December 3, 2025
Posted by: Vipre77
Verified Purchase:Yes
Good product and good warranty, however, one extremely important detail to remember! If it cracks, DON’T TAKE IT OFF OR THEY WON’T WARRANTY IT. I got hosed on that once before at Best Buy and learned my lesson. They need to see the broken protector while it’s still on the device in order to give you a new one.

More fan than case
on July 24, 2023
Posted by: Vipre77
You’ll need a lot of watts from your power supply just to run the ridiculous number of fans in this case. Nobody but the hardest of hardcore overclockers needs this many fans and even then I’d still question if air or most basic water cooling rigs are sufficient for that. The law of diminishing returns definitely applies here. At a certain point, continuing to throw more air in there won’t help you reduce your temperatures anymore. In other words, airflow won’t be anywhere close to being your bottleneck in performance and it will just waste a lot of power and make too much noise for no tangible benefit.

Good entry model, but 4th gen speakers are better
on January 15, 2022
Posted by: Vipre77
Verified Purchase:Yes
Useful and it seems to do all the same exact things the newer 4th gen models do. Docked 1 star only because the speaker quality is not as good as the 4th gen models which makes it not as good for playing music. If this is important to you, go for the 4th gen model. It is a little cheaper than the 4th gen model, so you get what you pay for on the speaker quality. If you don’t listen to music on your smart speakers, then this is a non-issue and it can save you a couple bucks. I only got this model because it was bundled on a promo deal with an Insignia TV I bought. I already had several of the 4th gen models to compare with.

Can’t beat the bag for the buck
on January 14, 2022
Posted by: Vipre77
Verified Purchase:Yes
Got for $379 right before Christmas. What an incredible value! Has many features some more expensive models don’t have and has plenty of inputs available. Something you don’t see often on budget-priced models. Picture and sound quality are good or better than my lower end Sony and LG sets I have elsewhere in the house.

The mobility of a handheld is now added to the power of a home gaming system, with unprecedented new play styles brought to life by the two new Joy-Con controllers.PLAY ANYWHEREAt home the system rests in the Nintendo Switch dock, which lets you play with family and friends on a TV in the comfort of your living room.By simply lifting Nintendo Switch from the dock at any time, the system instantly transitions to handheld mode, and the same great gaming experience that was being enjoyed at home now travels with you. The portability of Nintendo Switch is enhanced by its 6.2-inch screen, which displays bright, high-definition gameplay at the park, on an airplane, in a car, or at a friend's apartment.Nintendo Switch comes with two Joy-Con that can each act as a standalone controller with an analog stick, a full complement of face and shoulder buttons, built in motion-sensing technology and new HD Rumble. They can be inserted into a Joy-Con grip accessory to be used like a traditional controller, held comfortably in each hand for independent left and right motion controls, or shared between two players for instant multiplayer gaming in front of the TV or out on the go.This bundle includes the Nintendo Switch console and Nintendo Switch dock in black, and left and right Joy~Con controllers in a contrasting gray. It also includes all the extras you need to get started.

Good, fun console, but should be cheaper by now
on December 3, 2021
Posted by: Vipre77
Verified Purchase:Yes
Wanted the new OLED model, but it’s nearly impossible to find as a working adult who doesn’t have time to scour the news for drops while trying to compete with all the scalpers. I refuse to pay more than retail price so I settled for this model and saved a few $’s doing it. The console is quite fun, more so than I expected. My kids and I are having a lot of fun with it. My only complaints are minor.
1. The shoulder buttons L & R on the Joy Cons are too easy press by accident while simply trying to hold the console. I find that I’m pushing them often by accident. The Pro controller takes care of this problem when using the console docked.
2. It still surprises me that Nintendo is still charging the same price for this console as they did when it launched several years ago. Other console makers gradually reduce the prices on their consoles as the hardware ages, but not Nintendo… There’s rumors swirling that their next console could release within the next 1-2 years.
3. Their first-party controllers (Joy Cons and wireless Pro controller) are more expensive compared to Xbox S and PS4 controllers and yet do not feel as well-built, especially the Joy Cons.

Logitech Wireless Mouse Marathon M705 lets you power on... and on. It uses less power than comparable wireless mice from other companies, so you'll go up to three full years between battery changes.~ And it uses a tiny wireless receiver that stays plugged in to your computer, so your mouse is ready to go-whenever, wherever, and for as long as it takes. Plus, hyper-fast scrolling means you'll fly through long documents to find what you need in a flash. Advanced Optical Tracking means you'll get smooth, responsive cursor control. And the sculpted, right-hand shape means you'll be as comfortable finishing up as you were getting started.

Great little mouse with amazing battery life
on January 15, 2021
Posted by: Vipre77
Verified Purchase:Yes
Great battery life. One pair of AA’s can last a couple years as advertised. I use mine all day long doing CAD work at home and in the office, so it’s racks up a lot of hours and the batteries just keep going. I don’t like a lot of the gimmicky gaming mice out there. I play some computer games with this mouse but I’m not a hardcore gamer. I have two of these mice. One for my work computer and one for at home.
Logitech has changed the design on these st some point and I have one of each version. They’re pretty much identical except for two things. The original one had a different Logitech logo on it and has and extra sort of hidden thumb button on the lower left just below where your thumbs rests. This newer version has eliminated that thumb button. I never used the thumb button anyway because I kept accidentally hitting it all the time because of its location. I assume this is why Logitech got rid of it on this updated design.

VirtualAxis tilt technology allows simple adjustments from +5 to -15 degrees. This Rocketfish full-motion TV wall mount holds 40-inch to 75-inch flat-screen TVs for versatility.

Good mount, but a little expensive
on January 15, 2021
Posted by: Vipre77
Verified Purchase:Yes
I like the range of articulation. Installation was easy. Feels well built. Price I think is kind of high compared to other comparable wall mounts this size. My only other very minor complaint is that I wish it had a bit more resistance or tension at the joints. The tilt angle up and down has a tension adjustment, but none of the other joints do. The TV moves a little easier than I’d like. It’s not moving around when I don’t want it to and it stays where I put it, but I’d prefer the joints to be a little stiffer than they are. Maybe even some kind of a locking mechanism would be nice to be able to lock it in position if you wanted to. Again, very minor complaint.

Very good TV for the price
on January 15, 2021
Posted by: Vipre77
Verified Purchase:Yes
Got this TV one sale at 22% off regular price. Missing a few bells and whistles of some higher end sets. Picture-in-picture seems to be absent which is something I don’t miss on smaller TV’s but it’s more useful on a big TV like this. 4 HDMI inputs is great though. Dolby Vision and Atmos audio is absent, but I don’t really miss them much. The built in audio is quite good as far as built in audio systems go, but the simulated surround sound feature is unconvincing in my room. Expect simply adequate stereo sound and you won’t be too disappointed. It won’t compete with a more powerful home theater system or a high quality soundbar. Picture quality is generally really good for the price point. I don’t like the motion compensation fakery all of these TV manufacturers use. Sony, Samsung, LG... none of them look good to me with this feature turned on. Every setting option looks unnatural to me, even on sports where it does best, so I just turn this feature off.
I bought this TV right before Christmas for $779. At that price, I think you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better 75” 4K TV. Still not a bad deal even at the original price.

Upgrade compatible PC systems with the WD_Black SN750 internal SSD. Read speeds of up to 3,470MB/s offer improved load times, while the M.2 form factor means you can directly plug into the motherboard without extra cabling. Compared to typical 2.5-inch SSDs, this WD_Black SSD fits double the storage density on a single-sided drive, making it suitable for portable builds.

Does it's job
By Drock3535
For the price, it does what it's supposed to do. Only real issue with it is, that after over a month with it, it still hasn't stayed 100% flat. The left side still has a small roll in it.

Go anywhere with a sleek 2-in-1 metal chassis featuring thoughtful details including a webcam privacy shutter.
 

Is the keyboard considered full-size?

Yes, but the number pad keys do feel slightly cramped and those keys are a bit smaller than the rest. It's not really a problem for me, but something maybe to be aware of if it matters to you. Personally, I prefer having it small-ish and a bit cramped rather than not having it at all.
