The specs speak for themselves...Wait to you get this baby home and set up! It flies! I can play GTA V at 1080p no problem! This is a desktop replacement. Well built, excellent backlit keyboard and trackpad. For under $1000, I could not find anything better than this Dell. I tried for months. The color balance is accurate too, something hard to get today I found. Down the road, after Win 10 gets released, I will upgrade to a SSD. But I'm telling ya, this machine does not need one! Just close any programs (processes) you are not using. 12GB DDR3 RAM and a 4GB dedicated AMD GPU are blazing. Only thing is, it does not boot up as fast as a pc with a SSD drive. But I can wait! I love this laptop, you will too!

Yes it has a lot going for it. I just kept thinking it was trying to be a macbook air running windows. Too dainty and petite for me. Screen just could not get WHITE. I wanted to keep it. Really. HP is just not what they used to be. The side system fan was so annoying like a jet engine! The new, new kid on the block is the the recently released all aluminum Dell Inspirons and XPS. Check out the Dell 7548 , the model with the 4K QHD display with dedicated 4gb AMD Radion graphics AND 12gb system graphics with a 1 TB HDD. I bought that and I finally feel like I got a great deal for under $1000. Finally! After 8 purchases or so from every manufacturer except Acer and Toshiba. Best Buy Blue Label is great. Microsoft store is more like an outlet store. Stay away from Macbook if you like to tinker at all.

This case was actually first introduced in 2004. DSLR Cameras being all digital, hence the name of the bag. I just spent 1 hour customizing and carefully placing all my gear in the case. Room to grow for sure. Lots of well thought out pockets and such. Excellent padding, excellent shoulder strap. I love my my T5i, 3 lenses, external flash and filters. I feel as though this case will completely keep my gear safe, and stand the test of time. Lots of details went into designing it. All the way from the metal clasps to the rubber feet to the tripod holder straps. Put my other name brand case to shame. Very sturdy, very good looking and serious water repellent action too. Love it!

Yes, you can spend less on the galaxy tab pro, or tab 4, but you get what you pay for! So tired of Pro and 4 buyers trying to justify not buying the tab S. LOL...Colors and resolution, super amoled, ppi are outstanding, 3gb RAM, 128gb upgradeable memory. This is THE FLAGSHIP best in class Samsung device. They got everything right. All the tab 4 and Pro buyers don't know what their missing!!! If your going to do it, do it right. Spending less is not an option for discriminating buyers like myself. Try putting more memory in your iPad or Nexus. Please people...read the specs before you buy!!!

What's great about it: Looks Great, Wakes and Puts Phone To Sleep,Can Take Calls Closed With Window
What's not so great: NO Durability, Somewhat Awkward, Hard To Reach Volume Controls
Seriously. When I first got the case I loved it. Now I only like it. It's great to be able to protect the screen ONLY with snap on replacement back plate. However, we ARE human. We tend to keep our phones in our pocket (men) or purses (women). That's where the story ends. I'm constantly making sure it is secure in my pocket, and fumbling to use it in car dock. No REAL DURABILITY protection, so I ordered a Verus Samsung Galaxy S4 Case OnEye Series Protective Case [Jet Black] . It is beautiful AND Functional. Will I ever drop the phone? I don't know. But a hard polycarbonate case with a soft rubber TPU interior makes me feel better about using my $700 smartphone in the real world. Added a very high quality HD screen protector too. Now my baby is sweet looking and fully protected ALL AROUND. Not just the screen. It is way overpriced as well. Anyway, to each his/her own.

What's great about it: Amazing design, works perfect, fast
What's not so great: A little bright
Just had it installed today. WOW! Times have changed. I had a 5 year old Kenwood prior. This blows that out of the water. Sound quality amazing. You really need a subwoofer and amp with decent speakers to hear this baby in all its glory! Beautiful double din unit. Why get an expensive touchscreen? If the touchscreen fails or cracks, your in for BIG BUCKS. My 2007 Scion TC TRD and this Pioneer multimedia player are a perfect match. Just one hint, read the manual in the car with the unit on so you can learn how to really operate it. I downloaded the manual in PDF on my iPad for easy access. Love PDF, so much easier on iPad than paper. Buy it! You won't regret it!

What's great about it: Clean, Crisp Sound, Perfect Bass Response, Very Comfortable (Even W/Glasses)
What's not so great: Fragile Cord
I am writing this review from my NEW iPad while listening to Pandora. I cannot believe the quality to price ratio. Other NAME brands cost 3 to 4 times as much...These will blow you away, or take you away to your own little space. There is burn in time necessary. Meaning let them play for 3-5 days before you judge them. I am an audiophile. I know quality. Other name brands charge you for just that, the name. These are soooo comfortable, and truly have very well defined sound. Everything you could ask for!
This product has... Perfect fit, Stylish, Powerful bass, crisp highs and lows

Drive optic no incluid..what that mind? The computer doent read CD different format ?
The PC does not come with what is now becoming outdated DVD Drive. Purchase an inexpensive USB DVD Drive. Works perfect. I went all out and bought a Blu Ray writer / reader drive. Works perfect!

If the computer is OFF and you fold it into tablet mode, and then turn it on, are the touch pad & touch pad buttons active?
So far, I have found that all of the HP x360s have the following design flaw. I’m wondering if this newer one still has this design flaw? Here’s how to test it. With the computer OFF, open up the computer, and fold it all the way into tablet mode. Then turn on the computer, leaving it in tablet mode. The problem has been that, when the HP computers are turned on in this tablet mode, the touch pad and the touch pad buttons would be active, and that causes obvious problems. If it is working properly, none of the buttons, the touchpad, nor the keyboard should be active, in this tablet mode.
No. Only active in standard mode, not wanna be tablet.
