Wireless and phone capability is excellent, sound quality is okay. For this purchase, I relied on my previous experience with over-the-ear Beats headphones, which are known for a very full and crisp sound, but these earbuds don't deliver the low end punch I had hoped for, nor do they isolate the outside world sound very well. The different buds that come with the package must not have fit my ears very well. Sound quality was crystal clear, just didn't seem like a full range of sound like I was expecting. I listen mostly to Rock/Metal, and I don't expect booming bass, but I expect to hear a full range of tones. These earbud headphones just didn't deliver for the price.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Easily portable, little pricey for the functionality, but it is pretty slick to store. I like not having the USB antenna to carry around as well. Compared to other Bluelight Opticals I've had, it has some troubles on fabrics that I've never had trouble with before, but flawless otherwise.
One neat thing is it makes a clicking noise when you use the scroll pad. You can feel the feedback even though it isn't a clickable/moving button.

If you're a frequent traveler who needs high powered computing, you cannot beat this package. I found myself struggling with the price a bit, but had some extra cash and dove in. I'm so glad I did. Portability is impressive and the package feels incredibly solid. I carry it in the same leather folio I carried my Surface Pro 3. My typical daily use was a 17" Lenovo gamer type laptop, but the weight of carrying the laptop along with the hefty power brick gets annoying along with 2-4 hours of battery life tops while multi-tasking in the MS Office suite (Excel and Outlook run almost constantly on my machines).
I have had the original surface pro before the surface pro 3 and fell in love with the platform immediately. The portability makes it so easy to carry with you everywhere and the battery life outlasts almost any laptop. My only complaint with the traditional Surface was that it didn't seem to be well adapted to 8 hour office use. It would warm up pretty steadily the longer I worked, so I began bringing both the laptop and SP3 if I knew I would be in the office setting. I was always concerned I would fry it using it much longer than a couple hours in a shot. And these were both i5 models with the larger storage capacity to get the extra RAM. Well the i7 Surface Book has fixed my concerns.
The dual battery package is fantastic, and even with a power hungry capable system, the battery life is tremendous!! I've worked 10 hours straight and still have yet to get total battery capacity down below 50%. It also keeps you from discharging a single battery too quickly and generating heat when the system demands. Having the nVidia GPU onboard also helps relive the primary CPU of having to do everything, so heat is much less of a factor there as well. And it games pretty well in Native Resolution. I've played a few 3D rendering and computation heavy games like Kerbal Space Program and the latest Civilization. Both run flawlessly in Native Res. It will get a little warm gaming, but nothing unexpected. You could almost burn your hand on the SP3 just multitasking for a while in Windows 10, this gets lukewarm at best.
Would I recommend to a power user? Yes. I'm confident this would even run Solidworks for quite a while on battery with no issue. It would be money wasted on a casual user who really only uses the web browser and MS Office Suite. I have a desktop at home with 512GB SSD, 16 GB RAM and i7 H/T 8-core CPU and the Surface Book boots almost 10 seconds faster than it does.
Where I would really recommend the entire Surface line is to the traveling salesperson. They boot and run so quickly, they are perfect for those times when you're running down the road and have to pull over and send an e-mail or run numbers quickly. It's perfect for the full MS Office functionality on a platform as portable as an iPad.

Very impressed with color reproduction, especially whites. Blacks are excellent in busy pictures, but dark scenes show some backlight bleed, even at ultra low settings. 4K Upscaling has a hard time with high movement scenes and sometimes sports, but not as bad as I'm making it sound. Its a good TV, for the price, I should have looked at the THX UQ versions, or even a full array LED.

I just moved in to a house that has hardwood and tile flooring through the entire main floor. I *hate* sweeping. I thought I would give the Roomba a try and I haven't been disappointed. You can program it to run on a schedule and still send it out on a cycle manually. I run mine every other day, charge actually lets it run for around an hour, then it finds it's way back to the charging dock. Floors pass the white sock test and all I have to do is dump the collector every other day.

I drive 1,500-2,000 highway miles a week and this thing has paid for itself at least 3 times already. I don't use the smart cord that Bluetooth's the unit to your phone, but camera database is incredibly accurate. It will typically pick up radar on the highway 2 minutes before I see the source at 80-85mph, even in hilly areas. Does a great job of filtering automatic doors and other noise sources.
You still need to keep your eyes peeled in case of laser or motion activated radar, but I won't travel without it now. Great asset to those of us spending countless hours behind the wheel.

Will Oculus Rift work with this computer? Can I upgrade the video to a 8mb card?
Not much room for the vid card. GTX 1080 requires case modifications to fit.

How much wattage is the PSU? Guessing 300w since thats what these prebuilts seem to thrive on. Is the PSU upgradable or does it have proprietary connectors?
400W, has a loose 8pin from PSU. Has proprietary Lenovo 10 Pin ATX supply on mobo, so don’t expect an easy upgrade.

is it possible to add more cards for total of 6 monitors for a Platform when day trading stocks ?
It not has room for 1 PCI-E card, which can be a massive one that takes two bay slots, and there is an 8pin power connector. But only one big PCI-E slot on the motherboard. If you find a video card with enough outputs, it should handle it. Case is also short, will not accommodate the bigger video cards. Actual length and height is an issue.

Terrible Motion Blur How Do I Fix This?
I have the LC-70TQ15U model. I bought this TV because of the 240hz. I watch a lot of sports. I have tried every setting combination. Clear picture to the 240 aquamotion, nothing works. When I am watching football and the QB passes the ball , the ball is blurry. I am not happy with this and I am beginning to think its a defect in the model. Can you suggest a solution?
Turn down the Resolution Enhance setting under Pictures>Advanced. Mine works great in Mode 1
