This is a simple yet effective case for my Samsung S9. Since the phone is already waterproof all I really wanted out of the case was protection from corner drops, etc. Does a decent job of hugging the phone while allowing for "edge" viewing on the S9 - could have a little more room for when text or swipe options run over the edge.

I needed a rugged and waterproof phone for international travel and outdoor adventuring. Looked at other brands and models, including the fruit one, but the best specifications were found on the Samsung S9. Camera is really good and I've used it in 6 countries with different data SIM cards with no problems. International SIMs were always hit and miss when I had an unlocked fruit phone and their waterproof devices cost twice as much. This is the best device for my needs.

Store edited photos, videos, and games on this 3.5-inch Western Digital hard drive. It has dynamic cache for optimizing allocation between reads and writes, and there's plenty of space to store files with its 4TB capacity.

I needed a drive for quickly transferring files between systems using an external dock and this works great. It's not a speed demon, but if you need a reliable drive for backup and transfer it'll do the job.

Really pleased with the sound quality of this system in our small-ish entertainment space. Optical connection to the TV means all connected HDMI devices pipe sound through this soundbar for ease of use. Quick connection to phones for streaming music too. A great value and was chosen in a "blind" sound test from much more expensive systems.

Coming from a 36" 720p TV, this Sharp 4K UHD TV is really incredible. It's not the latest and greatest in 4K technology (OLED, etc.) but looks great in our space and has a clear picture. The addition of HDR Roku TV and multiple HDMI inputs for cable, Blue Ray and a game system round out its value.

We love making bread and this mixer is amazing for the task. It's a mini version of what is used in commercial kitchens and has the power and stamina for longer mixing tasks. Haven't tried any attachments but the pasta maker is on the list. Got it as a "doorbuster" holiday deal at a great price!

My wife had collected the HP movies as they were released. Some were full screen, some were widescreen, there was one Blue Ray disk. She's thrilled with the set is loving the HD renditions for her Christmas movie marathon.

Protect the front element of your costly lens with a filter! All my lenses have the Hoya NXT HCM UV filters attached - they are clear, give no color cast, and are rugged enough for day-to-day use.

I've gone through a few sets of short-lived Bluetooth headphones to use while running and none have withstood the sweat and weather I put them through until these Beats. Sound is superb, they stay charged on my longest runs.

Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G Standard Lens: A perfect everyday lens for any photographer, the AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G offers fast autofocusing combined with an integrated lens coating to deliver clear and crisp images. The wide-open aperture is ideal for low-light shooting and creating images with beautiful background blur.
 

Is this compatible with the D7000

Yes, it is compatible. The effective focal length of any lens placed on a DX sensor camera (like the D7000) is to multiply by 1.5x. So this lens will offer the same perspective as a 75mm lens on a full-frame camera. If you want a 50mm equivalent for your D7000, look at the Nikon 35mm 1.8G DX lens.

CyberPowerPC - Gaming Desktop - Intel Core i7-8700K - 32GB Memory - NVIDIA RTX 2070 - 2TB HDD + 480GB SSD - White
Work or play games with this CyberPowerPC Gamer Supreme desktop computer. It has a 2TB SATA hard drive + 480GB SSD and provides plenty of space for media storage, and the 32GB of DDR4 SDRAM let you run multiple intensive programs without lagging. This CyberPowerPC Gamer Supreme desktop computer has a GeForce RTX 2070 graphics and produces stunning visuals to bring game environments to life.
 

I did not see any specifics on the monitor outputs. Can this support multiple monitors and what is the configuration (HDMI/DVI)? Second question is about the USBs? What configuration of 3.1 and are these Superspeed+ (10GB)?

I have a dual 4K monitor setup working using one DisplayPort and one HDMI. I tried with two DisplayPorts and didn't have initial luck, but I'm new to the Windows/PC world so it could be a problem I have yet to solve. Both monitors are resolving at 4K and there seems to be no lag, so I'm calling it good for now.

Sometimes the description says the PC is black, and sometines that it is white, which one is it?

The case is white.
