You're excited to buy a new computer — now, make sure to protect it. Geek Squad® Protection enhances your manufacturer warranty and covers you for accidental damage.
Gambling in my opinion

To be honest I don’t know. I usually hate protection plans as products usually break down after it ends. But you never know. It’s like a gamble.

It’s ok. I could have saved a few bucks and lived without it, but it is a little convenient. Though I still have problems getting service as staff is running around a lot.

For the price it’s ok. Works but sometimes doesn’t hold. “Sometimes”, so I’m not totally hating product. I wouldn’t plan on using this as a selfie stick also, heavy and you really need to lock in those joints.

Quality to price ratio very good. It’s not a premium gaming machine but does the job with room to upgrade. You could build this yourself slightly more cheaper but it’s a real price hunt.

I’m not an Apple fan boy, but I do use some Apple products so I think I am unbiased. As a phone, works fine. As a source of internet, works fine (depending on service provider). Build quality, it’s fine. .........in short I’m not a tech geek, this phone it’s fine. Ive owned Samsung Android and windows before and previously had a XS and before that a 6. It’s fine. Unless your current phone is falling apart or you need better low light photos I don’t see the point of people getting a new phone every year. This phone is good for me, why because I shattered the screen in my XS. Problem solved :p

It is actually ok but takes up both the Aux port and a USB port for charging. I’m not going to hang a cable across my entire deck and A/C controls just to take up 2 different ports. Sounded good though and didn’t have to worry about frequency disruption like on a radio transmitter.

Takes forever to charge anything wirelessly. Sometimes I notice after charging wirelessly for 1 hour my iPhone XS didn’t gain or loose power, just stayed at the level I started charging at. I love the concept, but without fast charge it is a waste.

Love these. I have noisy neighbors and watch tv with this. It’s not noise cancelling but drowns out ambient noise retry good for the price. Sound is nice and bass is pretty good. I do get connection problems when I get those pod looking things blocked off from open air (I get them smothered under my chin in bed). Buy otherwise have good connection as long as your not in a confined space away from the Bluetooth source.

Apple - iPhone® XS Leather Case - Black
These Apple-designed cases fit snugly over the curves of your iPhone without adding bulk. They're made from specially tanned and finished European leather, so the outside feels soft to the touch and develops a natural patina over time. The machined aluminium buttons match the finish of your leather case, while a microfiber lining inside helps protect your iPhone. And you can keep it on all the time, even when you're charging wirelessly.

I really like the look except one thing, the Apple logo is a eye sore to its sleek look. Also scratches, but not easily, and looks sickening if you get a deep or dotted gouge.

What is the max Gpu size that can fit this? Thinking about a xfx speedster card but they tend to be long, 13.5-13.39 length.

Insignia™ - 350 Sq. Ft. 8,000 BTU U-Shaped Window Air Conditioner - White
Summer’s great, but not if you’re stuck indoors without an air conditioner. Beat the heat this season with the Insignia NS-AC8WU3 350 Sq. Ft. 8,000 BTU U-Shaped Window Air Conditioner. A powerful BTU rating of 8,000 provides cool air for a room up to 350 sq. ft. Designed for vertical sliding windows, this air conditioner features an oscillating fan with 3 different speeds and both up/down and left/right adjustment options. A U-shaped construction reduces the amount of cool air that can escape while letting you keep your window closed or open. This air conditioner runs as low as 42 dBA – up to 9x quieter than most traditional units, while simultaneously using an inverter system and Energy Star certification to save you both money and energy. A handy air filter indicator and an auto restart mode both grant you the peace of mind in knowing this air conditioner has you covered no matter what. Finally, an included remote control lets you operate the unit from up to 26.2 ft. away. All this and more make this Insignia air conditioner an ideal way to stay cool and comfortable indoors.
Never owned an AC before. Are window units suppose to be this noisy? Blowers throttling constantly, crackling noises heard from outside (my window glass is thin), and occasionally water noises. Maybe it’s normal but I wouldn’t know, videos look silent.

have bluetooth to conect my xbox controller?
Yes, but it’s finicky. Install all new drivers and bios from MSI website & make sure your widows updates are up to date. Bluetooth icon will appear in tool box but may or may not work. If it’s not working but icon is showing: depower and power system till it starts working (unplug PSU and hold power button to make sure it’s totally depowerd). I did this myself after finding solution through google.

I have the mag B550 Tomahawk max wifi motherboard. Does it have bluetooth capability and if so how do I enable it? Device mgr says its updated but yet has an exclamation!
Download all the new drivers and bios updates applicable to your board from the MSI website. May need to power & depower your desktop a few times after installing everything to get them to work. I and a lot of other people had the same problem of not finding Bluetooth but eventually it did work.
