I work in home office with laptop & docking station. This is a second to another Acer monitor, and it was plug and play. I did not even need to adjust brightness, color, or resolution.
Best value for in store purchase.

I left my high end Voyager Legend at home when traveling for business, so stopped in at Best Buy for an affordable backup unit.
Used it extensively during my 3 day trip, and colleagues and customers reported excellent sound clarity. Battery life is good, and it is comfortable to wear.
Noise and wind suppression doesn't match the Voyager Legend, but at $100 lower in price this is an excellent, affordable solution.

I've always been a big fan of lifeproof cases, but the curved screen of the Samsung GS8 creates issues that Lifeproof only adequately solves.
The gap between the cover and the glass is distracting and somewhat decreases touch screen accuracy.
One positive is that the fingerprint sensor is separated from the camera, so no fingerprints on the lens. This is a common complaint about the Galaxy S8
If the film over the glass were tighter, it would be 5 stars.

Good all around performer, won't stay on ear without plastic loop, and starts digging into ear if worn too long... Ouch.
Not bad for the money, but had to go back to the Plantronics Legend for comfort and battery life

The Legend is the best & I've owned them all. Bidirectional sound clarity and noise reduction second to none. Battery life as well. I have charging case that keeps it charged and protected.
Real power switch, so it won't accidentally turn itself on when not being used (like the Jawbones).
I had one for years, but finally broke it due to rough treatment. This is my second, after buying many less expensive ones and being disappointed.
Had to go back to the Plantronics Legend... One gets what one pays for.

Logitech - PRO Keyboard Case for Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 and Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 - Black
Logitech PRO Keyboard Folio Case for Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 and Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 Tablets: This protective case allows you to stand your tablet up and type on a full-size keyboard as if you're using a laptop. Lay it flat over the keyboard for essential wear-and-tear protection while browsing and viewing in tablet mode.
Awesome Keyboard, Poor Attachment to Tablet
Customer Rating
4.0
I don't need to write much if you've read other reviews because there is a theme here: this is the BEST keyboard for the 12" Galaxy Tab-Pro, hands down; however, Logitech ignored the engineering of the clips that hold onto the tablet, and it pops-out all the time. I ended up using small pieces of spare 2-sided adhesive strips from those 3M Command(tm) wall hook behind the tablet.
It's not good for taking the tablet in & out of the Keyboard Case; however, the keyboard case is so awesome I never want to take it out anyway. It flips around to use as tablet, or stands up to behave like an Android Laptop.

We replaced an older Lenovo All-in-One with an AMD processor, only 2GB of RAM, and it was just getting bogged down. This HP has a latest generation Intel Core i3, and with 8Gb of RAM and 1TB drive, it is smoking fast for what we need as our "Family Room" computer. Internal B&O speakers sound great, this still has a built-in CD/DVD burner/player (which is becoming less common). Wireless Kbd/Mouse work great, no cable clutter. No issues at all, would buy again.

I purchased my new Ultrabook, planning to upgrade to a SSD as soon as prices came down, and this Samsung was affordable. Using a USB 3 enclosure, I cloned my conventional drive using Acronis TrueImage (overnight), then swapped the drives, and Windows booted in about 7 seconds.
After over a month of use it still cold boots faster than it used to wake from sleep. All software and "apps" startup and operate many times faster. I didn't do any benchmarking, but it is a staggering improvement.
Also, the battery life of the notebook (Lenovo Edge 2, 6th gen. Core i7 processor) more than doubled... over 7.5 hours of continuous use on a full charge. A tremendous fringe benefit.
I still worry about long term reliability, so I try to keep regular incremental backups, but have had absolutely zero problems after heavy professional scientific research computing 14+ hours per day. I'm considering buying another for my other home computer.

How does one get the keyboard working again after it froze, and was charged, but will not work?
I only ever had this happen once, at least it seems like what you describe. I powered off the keyboard, then I had to go into the Bluetooth Setup on the Galaxy Tab-Pro 12.2, and make it "Forget" the keyboard. They I re-paired the keyboard to the tablet as I did for the initial setup.
I never had the problem again, and I suspect it was caused by something "Updating" in the background while I was using it; however, that's only a guess.
