I use this as a backup to my Seagate (not that I think Seagate is better; I just happened to buy that one first). I wish I could offer more insight beyond it's easy to use and stores a ton of content.

Enjoy a better Bluetooth wireless experience with Bose SoundLink around- ear headphones II. Exclusive headphone technology delivers deep, immersive sound at any volume. SoundLink wireless Bluetooth headphones use the latest technology so you can easily connect to your mobile devices with seamless audio/video sync. And a dual microphone system rejects noise and wind, so you'll be heard loud and clear. Switch seamlessly between 2 Bluetooth devices, and stay connected to both. And intuitive touch controls give you simple command of your music and calls. The over ear headphone design features soft ear cushions and a contoured headband, they're lighter and more comfortable than other comparable wireless headphones so you can enjoy them all day long. Wear them almost anywhere, and experience uncompromised wireless performance. When you're done listening, you can fold them flat for storage in their compact matching case.

I watched two Hobbit movies, one Lord of the Rings and several other videos while traveling to and back from New Zealand. These headphones blocked out ambient noise quite well. Very comfortable to wear hours at a time. I like the carrying case. Bluetooth and corded, worked great. I've owned them for only three weeks. I'm not an audiophile but do care about good sound.

I bought this in-store after speaking with a sales clerk. Then went home and read online reviews. I decided to keep it. I have found that it charges our phones and tablet quickly. I wish I could charge my laptop with it.

Get all the features of a traditional landline, such as caller ID, call waiting, robocall blocking, and address-based 911 calling. Take your home phone on the go with the Ooma mobile app.

So far so good

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've had it up and running for about two weeks. Sound quality is about the same as my previous Verizon unit (cell signal converted to land line phone). Customer support has been good. I've been getting a lot of telemarketing calls since I started the service. Maybe because my previous phone was a cell line. One thing about Ooma is they push their premier (pay more) service a bit too hard. I wish the standard service had call forwarding. But it's not a big deal. I like the low monthly $4.50.

MacBook Air features up to 8GB of memory, a fifth-generation Intel Core processor, Thunderbolt 2, great built-in apps, and all-day battery life.1 Its thin, light, and durable enough to take everywhere you go-and powerful enough to do everything once you get there, better.

Fast, no complaints five weeks in

My previous computer, an ASUS, sort of looked like the MacBook Air. I liked it a lot. But it lasted less than four years. I decided to get this MacBook Air on the advice of my IT guy, a PC lover. Per his suggestion, I went with 256 GB storage (He advises against adding to the unit; get what you need up front). This Mac is faster than my PC, but it's also newer so it should be. There are some features I like on it over the PC: the look of Word, screen captures, and a few other things that aren't coming to mind right now. There's nothing on the PC that I miss. I liked the PC for my work; it just didn't last as long as I think it should have.

Hard to say right now

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm told Apple Care gives you a battery at the end of three years if the battery is below 80% charge rate (don't know if I stated that correctly). Everyone I talked to says it will be, and that that alone makes the warranty worth it. I don't know. Do I care if the battery is below 80%? Probably not. Bigger picture, if the computer fails between year one and three, I'll be happy I have it. But then, if it does, well, I'd lose a lot of faith in Apple reliability. I bought Apple Care for my daughter because it came at a student discount. Seemed worth the $187. It's insurance, so it's hard to say right now whether it's worth it. I bought a MacBook for myself and didn't get Apple Care . . . but I can still buy it as long as my Air is less than one year old.

My IT guy says Kaspersky is good. Says there are better but it's good enough for the Mac. That's all I know about it.

Bought this for my daughter. She loves it. Got a fantastic price on it at Best Buy because she's a student and I got a BB credit card. For me, I'd go to 256GB storage as 128GB is a bit lean. But it works great for her. I'm told you don't want to add storage. Get what you need up front.

It's a Mac, so it looks great. My previous was a MacBook Pro. I went to a desktop for various reasons, and I'm happy to be working with such a large screen. Much faster than my old Pro too.

Does the job. I'd buy it again.

I chose this over the protector that acts like glass because I was told that it provides a bit more protection over the glass-like protector. After the store installed mine, it had a couple of minor bubbles that I feared would lift. I got a new one installed at no charge. The new one has a minor bubble or two, and it even peeled back once. But it laid right back down and has never given me a problem. I'd buy it again. The glass-like one, I was told, smudges less and is exceptionally clear. But I chose this one for what I was told was slightly better protection.
