Great basic Cable
on July 14, 2018
Posted by: DanB
from Maryland, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is an inexpensive, basic, long USB cable. I have had no issues with it as far as fit or performance. The cable itself is stiff, however, it is thin and makes it easy to tuck away.

Perfect Travel Shaver
on July 31, 2017
Posted by: DanB
from Yakima
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is the perfect combination of electric razor and traditional shave. I am always on the road and I have discovered that electric razors take up a lot of space. Traditional shavers take up a lot of space with all of the saving cream and things that go along with it. This one blade replaces all of that and fits nicely in a space just a little bigger than a traditional razor and handle. The shave itself is very comfortable and does not pull the hair. The only negative to this razor is that it will not get quite as smooth as a regular blade. Overall though this is, seriously, the perfect travel razor.

Lightweight and good quality sound.
on June 1, 2017
Posted by: DanB
from Yakima
Verified Purchase:Yes
My problem with Bluetooth devices is that they are usually very uncomfortable after wearing them for a while or difficulty hearing what's going on around you. This device solves all of those problems. It is very lightweight and over the ear, so it is very comfortable. Being that it is over ear, I am able to hear what is going on around me and the person I'm having a conversation with.
My only complaint is the noise rejection. It does tend to pick up background noise and amplify them.

Beautiful Centerpiece to Multimedia Workflow
on April 15, 2017
Posted by: DanB
from Yakima
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Surface Book with performance base is all I could ask for as a central workspace for graphic and multimedia design. I have been using this for just about a month with the Surface Dock. When I'm mobile, it is light and compact enough to take with me wherever I go. The battery life is incredible for a laptop with higher end components. I get about 12 hours if I am just doing email, video streaming, or basic browsing. If I am doing high end Photoshop work I get about 7 hours with the base and about 4 hours with just the tablet. I also love the multiple ways I can use the device.
The new magnet attachment for the pen is a vast improvement over the Surface Pro series Pen Loop.
I would highly recommend this device for someone looking for a portable powerhouse with good battery life.

For the Smallest Office EVER!
on May 15, 2016
Posted by: DanB
from Yakima
Verified Purchase:Yes
I find this to be a great tool for anyone who travels. It has two very strong features. The first one is that it is compatible with all of the major operating systems. Windows, Android, and Apple. The second major feature is that it has the ability to connect to 2 devices. The device switching is as simple as pressing a button on the keyboard.
The only drawback to this keyboard is the size of the keys. Even though this is designed to be small the keys are just a little on the small size and take a little getting used to.
The thing I love most about this keyboard is that when paired with a bluetooth mouse I can connect them both to my phone and use them on the plane to have the smallest office ever. It is so much more simple on a short flight or trip to pull those items out rather than pulling out the laptop.

Perfect on the Go Controller
on April 23, 2016
Posted by: DanB
from Yakima
Verified Purchase:Yes
I travel constantly for my job. There is nothing more frustrating than having to carry, not only a controller, but all the cables that go with it. The Stratus XL for Android and Windows is the perfect controller to combat that. It is small enough to slide into a pocket in a backpack and has nothing else besides the controller. It connects flawlessly to either an android device or a windows 10 device. If you connect it to windows you do need to make sure you download SteelSeries engine 3. Once connected it feels like a premium controller in your hand and has little to no lag, depending on the game. I would definitely recommend this for mobile players or people who like the Android gaming platform.

I purchased this to expand my Disney movies collection. The quality of materials was standard. It did, however, come with two discs blue ray and DVD. This is a nice touch and makes the movie very flexible from a viewing perspective.

Greatly Improved Keyboard!
on March 19, 2016
Posted by: DanB
from Yakima
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have been using the MS Surface Pro since the first version. I have always loved the snap on keyboard. This new keyboard from Microsoft is superior in many ways to the original Surface and Surface Pro keyboards. The actual buttons are slightly larger and spread a litter further apart. This allows for a premium typing experience. I find that it rates better than even some laptops I have worked with. The addition of a fingerprint reader is a great new feature. Being able to take advantage of Windows Hello is very cool. Its a small pleasure but when I touch my Keyboard and my Surface gives me a personal hello, it makes my day.

Depending on the virus. If the virus is smart it will disable portions of the software while you are installing it. You will want to remove the virus first and then install the software.

Specific tools

How do I know what specific tools this set comes with? I need a torx 6, phillips #00 and the pentalobe screw for an iphone 6. Does your set have these three?
No this set does not. It will have a small phillips, and the torx, it will not however come with the pentalobe. This set is really designed for desktop pc's rather than any type of smart phone or even many laptops.
