 Platinum™ - Hard shell with Holster for Samsung Galaxy S7 edge - Black
Platinum™ - Hard shell with Holster for Samsung Galaxy S7 edge - Black
Protect your phone with the Platinum hard-shell case with a holster for the Samsung Galaxy S7. The shell easily snaps into and out of the holster so you don't need to fumble around in your pocket. Set your phone up for movies with the built-in kickstand on this Platinum hard-shell case.
 
Great belt holster, So-So protective Case

The holster is great, this is my third phone using a platinum holster and i always come back to it after trying other cases. However, on the S7-edge, perhaps because there is little to "grip" because of the edge on the screen, when you drop the phone in this case, the case seems to always come off the phone -- but it is protective as the case absorbs the initial impact, it's just an effort to put the case back on again. I've learned to be more careful and not drop the phone :-) as a result.

Using this with a Samsung Galaxy Tab S2, and it allows me to store at least part of many installed apps to the Micro SD Card, which frees up main memory. Potentially this could be used to store many photos, videos, etc. Given that i now use my tablet (with bluetooth keyboard) as a de-facto laptop replacement, it's important to be able to maximize available storage.

This wasn't for me, but for a family member (I have a Kindle Fire HDX for self). They very much appreciate having this as a replacement for another tablet, seems to work better (less/no crashes, better battery) compared to the older one (not an amazon tablet). Side-loaded texture/next-issue as a way to get unlimited magazines (can access subscription on several devices) on this, and it works fine (usually, but once had to clear app data).
This tablet is not as high-res as the HDX (so tiny text isn't as clear as it could be without zooming) but it's more than sharp enough for daily use, especially at this price range

good signal strength, stable connection, good speed... only negative is when I turn off dhcp (and configure wiring properly) to use as access point only, it seems web config interface goes away and won't be accessible without factory reset.

The mouse worked fine with my Windows 10 laptop (DELL) and gives me a third way to interact comfortably with the laptop (besides touch pad and touch-screen). There are things like the third (middle) mouse button and comfort that you just don't get from the other input methods.

Comes in handy for streaming content to the TV as advertised. Easy to set up even on a non-smart-tv. Works wonderful with both my android phone/tablet and Laptop (with chrome plugins). Today I streamed a live webcast to the tv, the day before I watched a Netflix series, I've watched movies on it with "Disney Movies Anywhere" and "Google Play Movies" in addition to Netflix.

Only complaint would be I just replaced it (with same model) because my first one broke when I sat in a tight seat and the belt clip snapped off. Otherwise, it's convenient to get on and off belt (easy, that is), holds pretty well (once I learned how to snap it in quickly), and the kickstand comes in handy..

Like the original Kindle, is the screen still visible in the sun?

Like the IPAD you can't really use it in the sun light on the beach.
If you put it on max brightness, you can see it somewhat in daylight, for example i sometimes use it in car with the sun coming in window. However, what you are talking about is an e-Ink screen, and no it does not have that. There are still kindles that offer that, even a wristwatch that offers it i think, but none of the color tablets with full interactivity really offer that because it's a little too slow to update those screens and I'm sure there are other issues.

I just purchased the HP Bluetooth mouse X4000b and don't know how to get bluetooth on my computer?

What do I need to do to get bluetooth on my computer? I would love to use this mouse and not take it back, but I don't know how to get bluetooth installed on my Windows 10 HP computer.
A lot of computers come with bluetooth, but if yours doesn't you may be able to find a tiny usb bluetooth adapter.

With Chromecast can I stream movies and tv shows from my Kindle Fire tablet to my tv?

No, I have a kindle fire HDX 8.9", and does not work even with apps like Netflix which on other android platforms works... This is probably because amazon has their own 'fire stick' competitor to chromecast.
