A Star Wars theme bluetooth speaker for the Masses

Verified Purchase:Yes
This was a cool piece of Star Wars themed swag if you ever saw one. It is a bluetooth speaker masquerading as a Tie Fighter. The details are wonderful. It looks very cool on your nightstand. BTW, this is not a tiny speaker either. You can't miss it. Works well and I had no complaints.

This is the Lightsaber Game you are looking for

Verified Purchase:Yes
What can I say. I was fortunate to purchase this as a refurb for more than half off the retail and I wasn't disappointed. It came in the original box and it looked brand new with the instructions. I bought this specifically as a gift for my niece and she loved it. I had a chance to play with it myself and it was quite fun. The game does require a smartphone and it has to be one either certified by Lenovo or one manufactured in the last 2 years. Specifically, from what I can glean, the phone must either be a recent iPhone model (Iphone 6 or better) or an Android phone that has a quad core processor and at least 4 gigs of RAM otherwise you won't be able to play it effectively. The instructions are self explanatory but thankfully, there is a video tutorial on Lenovo's website. The main issue is that the phone must be fully charged and expect it to get hot at times if play it for extended periods. I love the lightsaber duel as well as the "chess game". I did not care so much for the strategic command type game. Also, you need sufficient room to maneuver and make sure the base is unobstructed. I would love to see a version that does not require a smartphone like the new Oculus VR headset. Also, it would be great to allow a multiplayer mode where 2 or more gamers can play together or against each other in co-op mode.

Great movie prop

I wanted one of these Black Series lightsabers for a while now and to get a awesome price. I knew that I had a 33% percent chance of getting the Luke Skywalker lightsaber and lucky me, I got it. it has a lot of heft and is not a toy. it looks so real. However, I have heard conflicting reports whether you can joust with them or not. The only hang up is the display is flimsy but usable. I love showing it off.

So many features for a great price

I had an old Maytag Neptune Dryer Center that was going to cost me an arm and a leg to repair so I decided to get a new dryer. I looked around at features and this Samsung got my attention. I love the ton of dryer modes plus it has a great steam option It takes a little getting used to all the modes but it works great. It has plenty of space and it is Energy Saver certified. To sweeten the deal,since it was supposedly being replaced by a newer model, Best Buy had it for 200 dollars off.

Decent Driving Simulator for the price

Verified Purchase:Yes
I want to be up front that I got this under $10 on a Best Buy special. I personally love this genre along with RPGs. The graphics and the tracks are breathtaking but then this is a current gen console so that should be expected. However, I thought there would be more customization and the car choices were a little bit limited. Also, the controls were not as intuitive like those on the Forza series. I give it 3 stars because of the price but I certainly would not pay top dollar for this game.

My mother bought a new LED TV and needed an HDMI cable that was longer than 6 feet. Well, Best Buy had this on sale and I picked it up. Works fine and I did not notice any degradation of signal. Would recommend.

Excellent USB 3.0 Flash Drive

Verified Purchase:Yes
I like the PNY flash drives. I never had any issues with the previous ones I have purchase and this one is no exception. Plug it in and my Windows 10 PC recognized it immediately. Decent USB 3.0 transfer speeds and seems durable enough. The drive is a little thick at the end so if you have USB connectors that are very close together then be aware it will be a tight fit.

Yeah, I know I could have bought the official Xbox One media remote but I am just looking for the basic Xbox One remote. This remote works well with the Xbox One and handles the basic functions. Had no issues and seems to work fine.

Great MicroSD card for the Price!

Posted by: Mickster
from Seattle, WA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I needed a micro SD card for an Acer Switch 64GB Windows 8.1 10.1 inch notebook and this fits the bill. It provided extra storage for this unit and it has worked flawlessly. Since it is a Class 10, I can play videos and music from it and there is no lag. I haven't noticed any issues. The card is extremely small so it could be easily lost so be careful or put it in the SD card adapter. I have had good experiences with Samsung SD cards in the past so I expect the same from this one as well.

Inexpensive but decent tablet
on June 21, 2015
Posted by: Mickster
from Seattle, WA
Verified Purchase:Yes
To be honest, I wasn't expecting much for $49.95 but as an Android tablet, it has met my expectations. Mind you, this was a gift for a 10 year old but it is still working. It has a quad-core processor but the performance is about average. Battery life could be better. My nephew says it runs for about 3 hours or so when he is playing games or streaming on Youtube. The tablet could definitely be better but considering it runs Kitkat 4.4 and for the price, it does run most Google Play apps well, I can't complaint. However, this is not an equivalent to a Samsung Note or Nexus 7. It is a good starter tablet. The only other issue is that I was initially hesitant to buy because of some reviews regarding DOA units. My advice is run this baby from the start and see if it acts up so you can return it back immediately. I don't recommend buying this and saving it as a gift for someone later.

Is this model compatible with a Verizon Samsung Galaxy J3 Eclipse, becasue on the 200 dollar one it is not compatibale?

Unless this Samsung phone is listed on the approved list of compatible phones on Lenovo's website https://www3.lenovo.com/us/en/jedichallenges/, it is very doubtful. This model of the Jedi Challenges game system is a refurb and is the same as the $200 model. To be honest, I know some phones not listed on Lenovo's site can technically work like the LG G5 but you really need a premium phone with 4GB of RAM and a quad core processor.

This Sony BDPS5200 Blu-ray player features built-in Wi-Fi. To build a complete 3D home theater system, we recommend you purchase a 3D TV, 3D glasses designed for the TV, high-speed HDMI cable and an A/V receiver that is compatible with 3D products.
 

Playback from a hard drive, AVI, MP4, MKV, etc

Hello,

I see a USB port, so I'm guessing this will play from a hard drive. If so, has anyone gotten subtitles to work when playing from a single file?
Only if the subtitles are hardcoded into the file so soft subtitles like those in an MKV file will not work nor will you be able to open a separate .srt files

File Format

What file format works. I can record music however the file format does not work in my 2014 Chrysler 300 8.4N Radio.
Unfortunately, the USB device plugged into the radio must be formatted in FAT 32 and it will only play the following formats: MP3, WMA, or AAC. It will not play FLAC formats whatsoever. SDXC cards won't work either. I don't understand why Chrysler did not publish a list of acceptable playback formats in the manual. I think they assume that only Apple iPod and Apple iPhone users are tech savvy or something.
