I was nervous about buying this watch, since I have small wrists (maybe 1.5 inches wide)- the size of the watch face concerned me. Although I'd like the face a bit smaller, it works just fine for me. This watch uses Tanzen OS, which is NOT Android - so if the plethora of Android apps is what you're looking for, this is not for you. If you don't want the instability of Android apps, then this watch IS for you.
I tried hard to find a good, well-reviewed Android watch. Battery life was a concern. After watching a lot of Youtube videos, reading reviews, and playing in the stores, this is the one I chose. The Consumer Reports review for the watch sealed the deal.
The display is easy to read. Applications are chosen via the bezel. Apps, including watch faces, are thru the Samsung Gear app.

Never had an issue with SanDisk. Needed one, just to do a backup of my Surface tablet, so I just needed an 8 GB. But with the sale going on, a 32GB was a no brainer. Great and reliable, as always.

This was one of those impulse buys I couldn't resist when it was on sale. I needed a USB3 hard drive for my Xbox One, to allow me to offload some games from internal storage. Plugged it into the Xbox, formatted the drive, and I was in business. The drive is fast, too.

This accessory really works well with my Surface Pro 3. I just plug it into an open HDMI and USB port on my TV, change the display settings on the computer, and my SP3 is on the TV. I just generally use it as a mirrored display, but the standard display options are available too (mirror, extend)

What's great about it: Great connection to your network
What's not so great: Maybe an unnecessary add-on now
When I bought my Sonos Play:5, this was a required accessory to connect your speaker to your network. You plug the bridge into a wireless router, plug in your speaker, push a button and BAM, you're connected! Connection is strong and have had no issues with connectivity (drops, etc).
Recently however, Sonos has made some changes (at least in Beta form) to their software to allow you to connect your Sonos Play speaker to your network without the bridge. I haven't tried this myself, so I can't speak on this. So before you by this, check for other reviews.

What's great about it: Great wireless speaker and software to go with
What's not so great: Better with 2 speakers
I already owned two Logitech wireless boom boxes, which have served me well (and continue to do so). With the Squeezebox line gone the way of the do-do, I wanted to find the successor. The Sonos line is great in that you can have multiple speakers, and have them play independently or as a stereo speaker pair. Note that I also bought the Sonos:Bridge, since that is what actually connects to your home network. Sonos has changed their software however, to allow you to use the speaker alone without bridge.
The Sonos supports a boatload of streaming options, so you definitely should find something to suit your needs, including Google Play Music, Beats, etc.

Take up to 1TB of files on the go with this WD My Passport for Mac external hard drive, which features password protection and hardware encryption to protect your data. The USB 3.0 interface simplifies connection to your MacBook® or MacBook Air®.
Can I use this with my Xbox One?
I bought this over a month ago for my mac and haven't used it and am running out of space on my xbox one. I was wondering if I could use this hard drive for my xbox.
I am using this drive on my Xbox One right now. You'd just have to attach, go to settings in the Xbox One, and format the drive. I have successfully made the drive my default storage, as well as moved files back and forth.

You should have no problem at all running on your computer. The only potential issue would be that your computer has only USB2 ports. If this is the case, just make sure the HD is USB 2.0/3.0 compatible. The only difference in the two is speed. A lot of the drives are backwards compatible, but you should check your computer and the hard drive to make sure.
