While i do believe yurbud makes the best workout headphones int he world for comfort and keeping it in your ear. However, when it is loud around me sometimes they do not have great sound quality. These jaybirds do the trick and they are wireless which is awesome.

What's great about it: easy app use with lots of options
What's not so great: i would love for there to be different types of lights in general in the line up (such as a LED light strip)
How many people does it take to put on a light build? well, it still takes at least one but after that this app is sweet. I have almost replaced all my bulbs in my house now.

I actual use this in my office and have it connected to my tv. You will need a unique cord to go from female AUX to RCA standard composite.
This works perfect for having a little extra sound quality to my 32 inch TV and being able to quickly hit the bluetooth works great with a decent level of sound.

Is the pink, blue, yellow, black, and white a better model then the purple and red? Or are they all the same and the purple and red are just bigger?

uhm i don't know what you mean. It is one lightbulb. Then you use the app to make it any color you want. Any other coloring is just the body color of the bulb. And yes, colors of product can make the price different sometimes. Hopefully, that helps.

I was told my extended warranty on my Canon Rebel covers theft.

I have a 3 yr w/ADH 500-599.99 DSC BTP
GSBIP #3708565873
Is it true my warranty covers theft or did Best Buy lie to me. My daughter is a witness to what they told me. My camera was purchased in may of 2011 and my warranty expires in may of 2014.
Their is no warranty best buy has ever had to cover theft. I ams sure you have found that out by now. The simple reason why theft is not covered is. It cannot be proven and some people ruin it for the rest. However, if it was stolen, most people can file a police report and get it put under homeowner's and such.

video mode slow motion play back

We have high speed equipment at work. I need a camera that can take a short video and play back in slow motion. Maybe in burst mode. Which cameras offer this?
Cameras are not really designed for that outside of action cams, 5K cameras and super advances camera's with the right gear. You could however just skip all that and record it with whatever you can and the best quality and just use some free software to just edit it afterwords. When you edit it along with making simple transitions, having the ability to add in words, you would also be able to put the footage into fast of slow mo. Hopefully that helps.

What other brand(s) of lens can I use on my Samsung NX300?

I would like to keep the same quality of picture that I am currently getting with Samsung lens.
All the samsung lens will be uniquely made for only a handful of camera's. So they have made a nice chunk there are not tons of options. The lens mount type for that came is a "NX" mount type. So any "NX" lens would work. They also have converters. If you could find a "NX" to "e" mount which is sonny's mirrorless lines you could find some more small lens. Hopefully that helps.

is shipping free?

i wanted to know if shipping of a large electronic device is free or do you have to pay a fee. if so, how much do you have to pay. thank you.
Whenever you go to checkout a product or even look at the product anywhere online it will say next to the price "Shipping". This will be followed by either a price or the words free. Hopefully that helps.

Will Best Buy sell the lifeproof S6 case? If so, when?

Lifeproof S6 case
Absolutely they will. Nobody knows. No employee will ever really know either. You can usually see about 2 days out on possible incoming product. And the people that made that decision you me and the employee will never see.

why doesnt bestbuy have nfc tags in store or able to buy with gift card?

NFC Tags in store
Best Buy doesn't make the NFC tags. They only have the most popular of every item in its category. NFC tags just are not used much. They had them for a few months and they never sold. I remember seeing them at the samsung area. Best Buy make agreements with companies and can only carry so much stuff in the store unfortunately.

View pattern & text message alert

What is the specific coverage pattern at various distances? Can the text message alert be turned off when you are in the coverage area ?
I don't know what you are saying about coverage area. however you can turn on and off all features on the camera whenever you want.
