Almost Excellent

from Roy, UT
I recently purchased two of these units for three upcoming Summer vacation trips. Always nice to play movies, music, or games on mobile phone during plane trips, but still need enough battery at arrival to call your ride. I'm also driving with my kids across three states, so they'll be draining the iPads and game systems. So, there are plenty of reasons to have a little extra battery power. I love the built in cables and the standard USB for other devices not using a micro or lighting connector. Then comes the negatives. I thought the unit would have a built in wall plug like many others, but NOPE. It does come with a USB cable (if you don't mind bright green!) to charge the unit. But you can only use that cable to charge the unit through your computer OR you can spend more money and buy a separate USB AC adapter. No wall plug and no AC adapter seem like big MISSES for a power supply unit! I love having the extra batter power when I need it, but having to buy extra components is a major flaw in my opinion. I would've purchased a different unit if I had known. Also a carrying case would've been nice considering I have the battery unit, the USB cable, and AC adapter I had to buy separately and need to keep all of these items together.
What's great about it: Love the built in cables
What's not so great: No USB charger or wall plug
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I recently purchased phones for a new account with MetroPCS since they have 4 lines for $100/month!! This saved me money of my last plan, much better service, unlimited data, no worrying about minutes since they are unlimited, and no cost texting. To get the account up and running, I purchased two of these cards to cover my first month of service. Now I can purchase these cards for my daughter who turned me on to MetroPCS. Although you have to enter a bunch of numbers to get the money onto your account, it really isn't any more complicated than making an online purchase. Very nice that all $50 goes toward your account...no service fees!

Simple Works Best

I purchased for laptop bag for the few times my mother may want to take the laptop we got her out of the house. She isn't tech savvy, but the computer is growing on her very quickly. For the relatively few times she will travel with her laptop, I wanted to ensure she had some sort of protection with handles and a should strap to make things easier for her. It isn't packed with features and tons of pockets, but it is perfect for her purposes. There are better bags with lots more features, but sometimes the simple things in life are more than enough so why pay more when you don't need more.

Cheap Storage Option

I use it with:Cell phone
Verified Purchase:Yes
While purchasing my new cell phones for my family, I didn't need to concern myself with storage concerns. Higher storage capacity phones are very expensive compared to picking up a 32GB card. My new Windows phones ask if I want all my pictures, music, and data storage to be pushed to the card, which of course means I can move the card around if I ever need to. 32GB gives me much more capacity than I'll ever need on a phone, but at least I don't have to be picky about loading music or pictures...there's plenty of room!

Happy Return to Windows

Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this computer as a gift for my mother. I hadn't used a PC in several years (Mac Junkie), but found the new Windows and the touch screen along with the very low Best Buy price undeniable. After I spent 30-45 minutes deleting a bunch of junk software and rearranging the icons to something mom could use more easily, the computer was fantastic. I got her a Windows phone, so I wanted to ensure her computer felt very similar. I found it very responsive, fairly intuitive (as a Windows Phone user), and powerful enough for her music pictures, e-mail, and Internet needs. Due to some mix ups at the store, I ended up with a new software load and $50 off. Couldn't be much happier.

Great Second Fridge

Gender:Male
Age:45-54
Verified Purchase:Yes
I am happy with this purchase overall. We were looking for a second fridge to keep our shopping trips to a minimum. I bought this fridge based on the size, energy rating, and cost = best overall for a second fridge. I wouldn't be as happy if this was my primary fridge since all the plastic pieces inside seem a little thin and cheap like the crisper drawers, the drawer slides, the inside door rails, and even the trim pieces around the glass shelves. Just know that before you buy this unit and if you are ok with those items, this is a great fridge. It is very quiet, the size is awesome, everything is adjustable for larger items or closer shelves, and it cooled down MUCH quicker than the instructions said...it was ready to use in a couple hours - not 24! The delivery was awesome! Two neatly dressed and polite guys unpacked everything, removed all the plastic skin wrapping the fridge, hauled away all the trash and my old fridge, and were very careful and respectful in my house. They used carry straps to keep the load steady and made sure they didn't damage my walls (installed in the downstairs basement with tight stairwell). Served our purpose perfectly without having to lift a finger - shopped online, free delivery and setup, and hauled away the old unit...can't ask for more!

What's great about it: The size is perfect for both the refrigerator and freezer sections
What's not so great: Little cheap on the shelves, inside door rails, and drawers

Protect your Apple iPad mini, iPad mini 2 or iPad mini 3 with this Belkin Cinema Dot folio case that features polyurethane material with a soft interior lining to help keep your device safe on the go. A tab closure secures your device and helps keep it in place.

The only draw back is the cover does not force the screen to turn off like a smart cover should - reason for the 1 star deduction. Although the power settings will turn off the screen in two minutes anyway so not a huge deal. Everything else is PERFECT!! The retention clips are very secure and I do NOT worry about my iPad falling out. I love the professional look, the magnetic closure tab in closed AND open positions, easy access to the buttons and camera lens, and the overall fit and finish. I can carry this in my business suit and not feel like a dork carrying some neon weird color around. I absolutely love the secure feeling and the protection this case offers for all surfaces. You can adjust the viewing angle so many ways to fit your needs perfectly. Belkin put some thought into this one and got it right! My wife bought the purple version and loves it just as much as I love mine.
What's great about it: Professional Look, Holds Secure, Protection, Viewing Angles
What's not so great: Does Not Turn Off Screen When Closed

Safeguard your Apple iPad mini, iPad mini 2 or iPad mini 3 against damage on the go with this Rocketfish™ Mobile RF-PDMH2C hard shell case that features polycarbonate plastic construction with a scratch-resistant coating for reliable protection.
Posted by: STEVEinDC

I had this for about a week and took it back yesterday. The fit and finish was perfect - Rocketfish obviously puts out a high quality product! I just couldn't get use to how smooth this back cover was and I always felt I was going to drop my brand new iPad mini...not good. I have a similar back cover from Belkin for my iPad 2, so I jumped at this one. My Belkin isn't nearly as clear as this Rocketfish, but Belkin's finish is has a gel feel that adds some grip and peace of mind. I can always hang on to that cover and it looks great as well...just not slippery. Took this Rocketfish back and got a portfolio cover from Belkin. Between the cost of the Rocketfish and the real Apple Smart Cover (which I hated and returned as well), I was $60 into covers. The Belkin portfolio looks better, feels better, looks professional, and offers much more protection for 40 bucks. Did exactly the same for my wife's iPad Mini and she picked up the purple Verve version of Belkin's portfolios. Both of us are much happier. BTW, don't buy the cheapo $15 no name portfolios online - NOT worth a dime!
What's great about it: Fits Perfect, Crystal Clear, High Quality
What's not so great: Slippery as Oil
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
