Motorola - Moto G is affordable android phone with big screen. Nice feature and configuration from Motorola. Good Battery life and Build.
Same configuration phones available for low price from other brands. But Motorola brand is more reliable.

Otterbox is the Best Phone Protector case manufacturer in the market. Past 2 years am using Defender case on my iPhone 5. No complaints so far. The port protectors may be little uncomfortable because I use ear pods often. This commuter series is slimmer than defender and provides almost same level of protection.
It's the BEST Protector case.

It's a must have for Kinect users + Kids. 2014 collection songs are good.

Need for Speed: Rivals - PRE-OWNED - Xbox One

Need for Speed: Rivals allows you to experience them both with a progression system built for each side.

I thought It's just car race game. But it's more. You can choose to play as a Cop or Outlaw. As Cop you can chase and Bust outlaws. As Outlaw you can race with other drivers and escape from cop.
Very interesting to play. The Graphics / UI looks bit dull, But that's OK.

It's a Wonderful 4K 3D TV so far I've seen. (I don't consider "Curved" design.)
Limitations:
1. It has 3 USB ports. But only one is USB 3.0. Rest 2 are USB 2.0. The middle USB Port is not working often. (Not sure it's issue with unit I received.)
2. It has 1 GB Internal memory. But after updating firmware only 200 MB is free. Rest all consumed by Firmware. Luckily the apps of huge size can be installed on connected storage device.
3. The default settings drove me crazy. I followed the settings suggested in another amazing site.
4. Can't use Non-Samsung brand camera for Skype. You must buy VG-STC4000 for Skype and Motion Control.
5. Motion Control/Gesture is not working as expected. Very hard to operate. Better use voice control with smart remote.
6. Anaglyph 3D video format is not supported. Side-By-Side (SBS), Top and Bottom 3D formats are supported well.
7. No Tizen OS. Samsung planning to roll out Tizen OS on 2015 version Smart TVs. 2014 Models won't get this OS. It's not a negative, until Tizen OS captures the market and performs well.

Was looking for Samsung Smart HD TV with medium budget and found this model. The cover of this TV shows Skype and bought this to use Skype. Unfortunately Skype app not available for this tv on Samsung App Store. 60Hz refresh rate is not so great for Gaming. But for average TV user, this doesn't matter.

Am using this Logitech K400r nearly 6 months with my HP Laptop and posted review earlier.
Now I ordered one more to use with my Samsung Smart TV. It was on Deal on BestBuy site and I have $5 gift certificate. Didn't even think a minute and ordered this one. After ordering, I noticed the product image and figured it's K400 not K400r model. K400r is next version and has bit different key layout. Also the Edge swipe gesture on Windows 8 will work on K400r only.
But yesterday I opened the package and it was K400r. Voila! Connected immediately to Samsung UN50HU8550 4K Smart TV. It got detected immediately and able to use without any hustle. It works great. I used Samsung Standard Remote, Smart Remote, Motion/Gesture control with Samsung TV Camera. But this is the best among all.
Right click on track pad will bring Smart hub control which I found after playing with the keyboard. With track/mouse pad I can control the cursor, select the apps, search for videos, use web browser.
Can't type inside apps like YouTube, Netflix. However can use arrow keys and select letters to type.
I wish it should have Bluetooth option. Anyways USB Dongle is fine as TV has 3 USB Ports.

What kind of home theater system should I buy. Please HELP.

Hello, I'm planning on purchasing the Samsung LN46B630 but I'm not sure what to do about a surround sound system. I am considering getting a HTIB (home theater in a box) but am unsure of what to do. I would like to know if I should get a HTIB (namely the samsung HT-BD1250 or even the LG LHB977) with a blu ray or if I should get a HTIB with a receiver and purchase a Blu Ray separately. I would also like to know what the whole "1080p HDMI" thing is all about and if I should go this route. The system will be used in our living room (which is pretty small) and the main features we are looking for are streaming netflix and pandora. Our budget is around $500 for the entire system. Can anyone help me?
For Best Sound, go for BOSE CineMate GS II. Connect it with tv with Optical SPDIF Cable. Connect all other devices with TV. That's It.
Any sound that comes to TV will be played by BOSE. You can mute TV and listen on BOSE.
I've tried Samsung Home Theater, Philips 1000w Surround.
BOSE is the Best.

What is the best home theatre system for a dorm room?

satelite system compared to the bar?
If you are not concerned about budget, then try Bose Cinemate GS II. It's the Best. Just 2 speakers and 1 Subwoofer. Not messy to setup like 5.1 systems But it beats any 5.1 system in performance.
If you want to use with your PC or Laptop then Bose Companion 3 Series II would be best bet.
If you are concerned about budget, then try Logitech, creative 2.1 speakers.

What do you mean by "open box". Is that a TV that is on display in store.

Open Box doesn't mean Store display item. It can be even returned by another customer who didn't want/like the product.
