I originally bought the more expensive, Voyage model, and I definalty prefer this one. It is much easier to grip, and is doesn't get as smudgy. I could not tell much difference in the screen quality, the major noticeable thing was the Voyage has a smooth screen, and this one is a little rough to the touch, but that doesn't matter at all.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I tried almost every over the ear headphone that best buy has in store. These are the most comfortable. Not the loudest however, and the Bluetooth drops out alot. They also helped me realize that blue tooth technology is not ready yet for high quality headphones. It is very easy to hear the compression and quality loss with them. I settled on the wired version of these headphones, Bose True comfort, and I LOVE them

This is my first true gaming laptop, and I absolutely love it!! It's running most games on ultra with no issues. It IS heavy. And you WILL have to buy a new laptop back pack. The hard drive is also excruciatingly slow, but it has two bays, and ssd are pretty cheap now.. It is also nice they have left you 2 empty ram slots, so you don't have to toss all of your current ram in order to upgrade.

I have had every model of the S series phones (except the active) and this is my favorite. Upgraded to the s5, and when I use my wife's s4, I wish I still had it. It is way more comfortable to hold, and put in your pocket than the s5.

"Special Offers" model?

I'd like the model that does not come up with ads. Is this the one? Thanks
No, this one has ads. But they are only on the lock screen, so they are not intrusive at all.
