Speck offers wonderful protection for phones but there are flaws with this clear case:
-the case's rubber edge lining turned yellow after about a month of use. This happened with regular use and daily storage in my pants pocket.
-the case is hard to remove and requires you to push the phone out using the camera lense which made me uncomfortable as it had me manhandling a brand new expensive phone.
Other than these issues the case did provide me with wonderful drop protection and i liked the fact that you could put your phone face down without worrying that the screen would touch the surface. Its a shame that it doesnt keep its clear look as promised.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Picked this one up after seeing cover art for it at Gamestop. If you are familiar with the Dark Souls series then you will enjoy Lords of the Fallen. In fact, Lords actually makes the Dark Souls formula a bit less frustrating. The difficulty is not as punishing as Dark Souls, but everything else is pretty much the same from the equipment making a difference in how fighting feels, to reclaiming your experience by revisiting the last place you died.
Gameplay consists of exploring a diverse viking-like environment constantly battling tough enemies, finding treasure chests, and save points before a boss battle.
Controls have a steep learning curve and deciding what equipment to put on makes a significant difference. I enjoy the fact that there are several chests to find in the surrounding environment and promotes exploration.
Graphically the game looks gorgeous. Not quite next gen but also much better than what Dark Souls looks like.
Overall I highly recommend this game for those looking for a challenge but not patient enough to play through Dark Souls
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: The vibrant screen, the speed of the apps and browser
What's not so great: Tiny particles of dust under the screen, no camera
What really impressed me was the speed of the internet and apps. Lighting fast with a good reception for Wi Fi signals. The screen is beautiful and bright and graphics and images are sharp and colorful with the HD screen.
I didnt like that dust is sometimes visible under the screen ( like 2 or 3 particles ) that are really annoying to me but I'm easily distracted by stuff like that so you might feel different. No camera also kinda stinks but overall I would recommend this device especially if you don't want to mess with clunky and slow interfaces.
This product is... responsive touch screen, Good sound quality, easy to set up, lightning fast, Variety of apps available, A nice compact size, Sharp graphics, Easy to navigate, Comfortable to hold
About me... Basic web surfing & emails, Student, Technology guru, Social media enthusiast, Gamer

What's great about it: 120 Hz can be toggled off and on, Outstanding screen, bright
What's not so great: nothing
Great tv all around. I am the most picky person when it comes to buying tech and It took me weeks of researching before finally picking this tv.
First, I have to say that if you are buying a tv for games and if you want 40" or bigger, than having a120 Hz tv is a must because the xbox 360 jitters alot and blurs ugly with 60 Hz. Samsung's and Sony's 120 Hz tvs are honestly 120 Hz because a lot of companies are claiming it but are actually running at 60. I could be here all day but the bottom line is this tv was what I was looking for as a gamer and the fact that the 120 Hz effect can be toggled off and on makes it a great tv for movies and games!
This product has... Easy to set up, Great value and features for the price, Easy to use remote control
About me... Gamer, Love to stream movies
I would recommend this to a friend!

How do I know what size tv to buy as a gift when I do not know the size of the room?

I am buying a tv for my daughet. She currently has a 27inch tube tv and I would like to buy her a LED. I am trying to decide between and 32 and a 40 inch. the loveseat sits within 5 feet of the tv but the chair is between 6 and 8 ft away. I don't want to go too small or too large
32 inch is the perfect starter set when making the switch to hd. I had a 32 inch for 4 years before I was ready for a bigger set. The hd picture alone will have her enjoying the bright 32 inch display :) have fun choosing one for your daughter
