Bought a new phone and watched to get a good protector for it, since the phone cases aren't designed to do that anymore.
Def. wanted one that would protect against not only scratches, but also impacts, etc.
Yes, these protectors are expensive, but it's cheaper than replacing the screen on the phone.
Had the Geek Squad put it on for me, since I'm a klutz with putting these on devices and mange to mess it up somehow - worth the eight bucks they charged.

Needed to move data around between laptops, and while I could've done it via an external HDD, thought it would be easier to do with this transfer cable.
It was pretty easy...software that runs the cable works well, even if it may take a few minutes to understand the UI so you know which data is flowing where.
My only beef with this is the price...more than $30 for a cable you're not really going to use that often is a bit much. If you do need to move data this way, it's probably worth it for you, but I hope I don't lose this thing 10 years from now if/when I need to move data like this again.

I wanted to have the particulars of the basic MS Office products (Word, Excel, PPT, OneNote) for a single device and a FULL LICENSE...not a renewal year-over-year.
Look at the back of the product cards in the store to make sure you're getting the right version of these products for your use before you buy - with a price for this of $149.99, even with a bundle discount, it's not cheap, which costs you a star.

Was looking for a new laptop to replace one that's 7+ years old, and preferred to go with Samsung again, for various reasons.
Pros: Very light. Has a Pen/stylus built in that you can use for various touchscreen stuff. Has a higher RAM, which I like. Touchscreen/tablet capability. Reasonably uncomplicated to set up.
Cons: Price is a bit high for something that only has a 256Gb drive and total features. Actual screen design (seems to be mostly edge-to-edge, except for the bottom part of the bezel) makes it super easy to get smeary fingerprints, etc. on the screen. Webcam: Design on top of screen makes it VERY DIFFICULT to put a cover on it, because there's a 1) cam indicator light, 2) Cam, 3) face recognition sensor, 4) face recog. LED all under a tablet-grade smooth surface - it's a super-wide alignment of indicators/cameras that's difficult to cover externally.
I'd say don't buy this model without being able to physically touch it and see how it looks/feels (I bought the last one they had at the particular store after they removed the floor model and wouldn't let me look at it, blah blah) to ensure it fits your needs 100%.
The Cons I find with this model are why it loses a star for me - the Pros are why it gets to keep 4 stars.

I type A LOT for both work and gaming, and I prefer to have a keyboard that allows more hand space for me, and not the default QWERTY straight-line layout that most keyboards have. MS has changed the materials in this keyboard design over the years, but it still seems durable. Maintenance takes some care, for both the built-in wrist pads and the keys; dust & debris will get in the keys a bit easier, but taking time to clean properly will keep it in good shape. I own several of these, and their worth having.

Pretty simple what this is...a prepaid card for Steam purchases. Prefer to use these instead of having credit card info floating around online, and you can buy them whenever and bank up the money for when Steam has a sale on games.

Was looking for a new mouse pad, and this one caught my eye as I was browsing. It's a different style than one I'm used to (more of a soft fabric/rubberized combo) but I like it. Only 2 issues with it - one is the size (15"w x 12.5" h), so it could be smaller. It also picks up a lot of dust/debris, so it needs to be cleaned regularly. Other than that, a good buy for my gaming use.

Was looking to replace a mouse for my gaming setup, since I seem to be fairly heavy-handed with them and grind the pads off the bottoms. I wasn't looking to spend tons of cash, or get a mouse that I had to swap out weights and set up 14 buttons on it - I'm not a twitch gamer. I *almost* missed this mouse due to the way it was stocked on the shelves of my local store (buried in with other brands of gaming mice) and glad I was looking at the shelf as I walked past.
It was 1/2 the price of another mouse in the Corsair product line, and is perfect for my needs. Fits my hand, and I like the the wheel notch because I can rest a finger there to keep it on the wheel. I could not care at all about the color/light spot on the mouse, which is covered by my palm anyway when I have my hand on it. Give this model a try - good hand fit for larger hands, works well with the Corsair console, and is very reasonably priced for a "gaming" mouse.

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.
 

Does it cover an item purchased in store but when I got home it doesn't work?

Why wouldn't you take it back to the store for an exchange or a refund? That's what they're going to do for you anyway if something was sold to you that is defective/non-functional?

Deliver a stable charge to your Qi-enabled smartphone with this Samsung wireless charger stand. Qi wireless compatibility lets you charge the device in portrait or landscape orientations for hands-free use, while Fast Charging 2.0 technology produces up to 15W for fast, convenient power. This Samsung wireless charger stand has a built-in fan for cooling the smartphone to prevent overheating.
 

Can ANYONE tell me the app i need to download to my phone, which is a: ANDROID KYOCERA E6810, to be able to activate or turn the fan on this wireless charger? I have downloaded several apps but NONE of them work. Thank you have a nice day!

I had this same question with my Samsung phone...according to Samsung's website, you can only control the fan on this charger via a Note10, and even reading reviews on their website people with Note10's have had problems trying to get that functionality to work.

I just used the adapter/converter on low setting for my Xbox one from America in Israel & the light on the power brick kept switching between blue/orange rapidly so it was unable to turn on. Should I switch the converter to high setting or will it fry it?

You need to know how many watts your Xbox needs. The converter has instructions on it what should be using the low settings vs. high.

You say a dongle is used in the USB port to use the wireless mouse but suppose I need to use a flash disk. Is there more than 1 USB port so I can use the wireless mouse and flash disk at the same time?

You would have to look at your computer/laptop to know that...most every PC/laptop comes with at least 2 USB ports.

I haven't seen one that's left handed in the wider marketplace. You may want to check on Logitech's website to see if they even make one.

Are there any cases that work with this screen protector? i.e. the insignia hardshell case sold by best buy. Do they play well together? Previous glass screen protectors did not. The case always broke the glass.

I'm using an OtterBox Commuter with this particular screen protector, and it works very well.

This 6' Insignia™ NS-PU965XF USB 2.0 cable is designed for use with PC and Mac and features speeds up to 480 Mbps for efficient data transfer to and from devices.
 

The sales person at Best Buy sold me this cable to connect my new ADS-2700W scanner to my Dell computer (Windows 10) . Computer will not recognize the scanner when trying to set up. Is this cable the right cable for this application?

I don't think so...this is a cable, loaded with its own software, to transfer files between computers...sounds like you need a regular cable to run data from your scanner to your Dell. There's other cables you should get for this, depending on the connections each has.
