I've only had this a month so I can't comment on longevity, but I can say it was super easy to install and it works well. I'm using it as a backup storage drive and it backed up my files much faster than my USB 2.0 drive used to.

Nikon - MB-D16 Multi Power Battery Pack for the D750 Digital SLR Camera - Black
This Nikon multipower battery pack extends the life of a Nikon D750 camera with additional battery power. The battery pack incorporates camera controls so you don't lose any functionality, and it is ergonomically designed for maximum comfort. The vertical release button lets you easily detach the Nikon multipower battery pack when it's not in use.
Works fine
Customer Rating
4.0
This battery pack was included in a Nikon promotional bundle when I purchased my D750. It works fine, as advertised. In my opinion it is not worth the normal retail cost. I would never have purchased it seperately because it doesn't really add any usefulness that I benefit from. It adds bulk that I personally don't like, but others with larger hands who shoot in portrait position a lot may benefit. It'll stay in my bag until the day comes when I expect to shoot more than 900 photos in a day or expect to shoot hours of video and can't be interrupted long enough to swap in a spare battery. If that day comes I'll be glad I have this.

This card is being used in a smartphone where it's max speed and performance limits aren't really tested, so I can't comment on that. What I can say is it is working flawlessly now, and has for several months, which is what a memory card is supposed to do. I would not hesitate to buy this card again if the need ever arises.

My 23 year old son had looked into this game via reviews and kept asking for it, so I treated him to it. It didn't disappoint. He loves it and plays it for hours on end. He had also played the previous Uncharted series games and liked those too.

Huawei - Google Nexus 6P 4G with 64GB Memory Cell Phone (Unlocked)
Huawei Google Nexus 6P Unlocked Cell Phone: Stay connected with this phone's powerful 2.0GHz processor and 4G LTE speed. Tap, touch and swipe your way through pictures, social media and apps with the 5.7" AMOLED Quad HD touch screen.
Top level performace for mid level cost
Customer Rating
5.0
I have used the 6P for about a month now and I am very impressed. This phone has done everything I have asked of it and hasn't hiccupped even once. Phone call quality: Good. Cell and WIFI reception: Good. Camera quality: Excellent. I am especially impressed with it's low light photo quality! Battery life: Decent to good. It lasts at least the whole day, sometimes two days, if I'm not using it excessively. Only once or twice have I needed to charge it before day's end. The good news is it charges very fast. I can get a full charge in less than an hour and a half. And a 15 minute charge gives it a good boost.
I like the larger screen size. It took a little getting used to carrying and holding a larger phone, but it fits in my pocket ok and I've adjusted to handling it, so all in all it's a good thing. Btw the screen image is really good. Sharp and clear. Natural, yet vivid and pleasing color. No noticeable degradation with off angle viewing. You can set it manually to any brightness you want or select adaptive mode that adjusts to whatever light you're in. Bright sunshine is a bit of a challenge for adaptive mode, but you can manually adjust it brighter if you need to.
The audio quality through the built-in speakers is good for a smartphone, but let's be real: if you want good sound you'll have to use other speakers. I'm happy to report that, unlike the newest iphone, the 6P still has a headphone jack that easily and inexpensively allows you to connect to headphones and other audio systems for quality listening.
I'm not a gamer so you'll have to read other reviews for their input, but this phone has effortlessly handled music, videos, web surfing, tons of "Ok Google" queries, Android Auto, and oh yeah, phone calls effortlessly. It's a definite keeper for me, and I would recommend it to anyone.
It's hard to explain, but this phone operates with a smoothness and effortlessness that makes me feel like it's capable of handling much more than I will ever throw at it. It is a well made, quality phone.

Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Standard Lens: Capture important moments in your life with this standard lens, which works with your compatible Canon DSLR EF-mount camera. A circular aperture with 7 blades helps you add creative background blur.
Excellent lens at a great price
Customer Rating
5.0
I'm using this 50mm STM lens with Canon 70D and it is an excellent lens, especially for the price. It focuses almost instantly and very quietly. It gives sharp images at f1.8 to f11 or so, and then gets a bit soft as all lenses on this type of camera do due to diffraction. If you haven't used an f1.8 lens before, be prepared to learn how to focus precisely on your intended subject because depth of field at 1.8 is razor thin, meaning objects even slightly closer or farther than the focus point will begin to blur. Not great for group people shots, but is great for isolating your subject and making it "pop".
The lens body is mostly plastic, but it doesn't feel cheap and flimsy like it's predecessor did. I also have the Nikon f1.8 at almost twice the cost, and the Canon is equal in image quality in my opinion. Now if Canon would only include lens hoods with their lenses...

Amazing functionality in a small stick!
Customer Rating

I love this little stick. We have accounts with netflix, amazon, hulu, and some other free ones and the Roku manages all the accounts flawlessy. There are hundreds of music/movie/entertainment/news channels to choose from. It's easy to switch from channel to channel, and if you're looking for a specific show or movie Roku will search all channels to find it and display a list of available channels. No more searching each channel until you find it! Speed is far faster than any "smart" blu-ray player or tv I've owned. I also have a Roku 3 and this little stick does most of what the 3 does at a far lower price. It is maybe a little slower to load content but still faster than any other devices I've seen. If you have the money and want the "best" get the Roku 3, otherwise the stick is a great option.

What's great about it: Keeps my son entertained for hours on end
What's not so great: Violent, some harsh language
I bought this for my son who is not the best game player as far as honed skills and understanding complex story lines, but he likes shooter/war games, and he loves this one.
He does not go online to play cooperatively with others so I can't comment on that. But the single player mode keeps him quite happy playing without getting bored or tired of it.
The graphics are not cutting edge by today's standards but are quite good in my opinion. Audio is realistic on a good sound system. Overall the experience is very engaging, and I find myself getting caught up in it just watching my son play. Kind of like watching a movie but he contols the action. Highly recommended.
This product has... Multiplayer capable, Like to replay, Excessive violence

Coverage question
I live in Cleveland, Ohio and would like to know if this phone will work at Metro PCS (which uses T-Mobile towers)? Also, is this version the same that is sold through google store with stock Android?
My 6P works flawlessly with T-Mobile so it should work with Metro PCS. Yes, it is the same phone you would buy directly from Google, with stock Android. I bought mine from Best Buy.

Activation with Verizon
I currently have a phone that uses a Micro SD rather than a Nano SD that the Nexus uses. When you activate in store will Best Buy give you a Nano SD to activate or is that up to the user to figure out?
Best Buy can sell you a nano sim for $4.99 that works with T-Mobile. My transition was smooth and effortless. I can't speak about the other networks.

Hello, I have a doubt! Actually I am with Movistar since I was living in Mexico, if it phone is unlocked, can I continue using movistar? It is a nano sim.
I don't know anything about Movistar. But the 6P does use a nano sim.

Can you easily switch back and forth from your regular cable tv ( actually not cable..Fios fiber optic) then switch watch roku channels Acorn and
Yes it's easy. Just switch your tv input from one to the other and go back when desired. The Roku will remain paused wherever you left it until you come back. If you unplug or lose power to the Roku you will have to navigate back to the show you were watching but it will allow you to resume where you left off.

What can I watch for free?
Youtube is free. So is Crackle. It has hundreds of movies, but you have commercials. Lots of music channels are also free. There are also hundreds of channels that I have never even looked at yet. Probably some good stuff in there.
