Designed for iPhone X, this silicone case fits snugly over the volume buttons, side button, and curves of your device without adding bulk. A soft microfiber lining on the inside helps protect your iPhone. The silky soft finish of the silicone exterior feels great in your hand. And you can keep it on all the time, even when you're charging wirelessly.

Done with leather, Silicone is better
on November 8, 2017
Posted by: Jimmy
Verified Purchase:Yes
I used to use the official Apple leather cases, first brown, then red, and finally black. Its no secret the leather cases get dingy, however I incorrectly assumed the silicone would also have susceptibilities of its own. I first was forced to try silicone when I got the white "smart case" for the iPhone 7. A year of use later, it looked like new still. All the while its grippier, and softer, and doesn't mind getting wet. When I got an X I went with silicone once more.

Great car charger
on November 8, 2017
Posted by: Jimmy
Verified Purchase:Yes
When it came time to get a new charger I knew I wanted a few key aspects:
- Coiled cable
- Lightning
- High output
- Small
This product is all of those things with the added bonus of an extra USB for my passengers, and it's not visibly branded so it just disappears into the car's console. Thoroughly satisfied.

I've never had a quality TV before this.
on November 17, 2015
Posted by: Jimmy
Verified Purchase:Yes
Looking at this thing, you can practically hear the angel choir singing. I've had Elements and Westinghouses, Sanyos and Vizios, and then THIS. The aluminum build of this TV is gorgeous, and the picture/color impeccable. Particularly, the speed of the screen is another aspect where this Sony set shines. I really came to the store that day to grab a Vizio M series of the same size and resolution. Side by side, there was a clearly evident difference in picture quality especially with fast moving objects like a football. The Vizio had block artifacts and shadowy motion trails. Not the case on this Sony. The smart features on the Sony were also appreciably better. I came to this set from a 50" Vizio M series, and gameplay on my PS4 is a world of difference. I know its not in 4K, but the color is better saturated (but not absurdly overdone like Samsung), and I had to re-learn my controller because my old set had input lag. The game mode on the Vizio was still slow compared to this.

These Apple-designed cases are made from premium leather for a luxurious feel. Because they're precision crafted for iPhone 6 Plus, the case fits snugly and your phone still feels incredibly slim even with the case on. The soft microfiber lining on the inside helps protect your iPhone. And on the outside, you see color that's more than surface deep, thanks to a dye that's infused into the leather. Choose from five complementary colors.(This case is made from natural aniline leather. Its appearance will change as you use it.)

Great case, but not in red
on November 17, 2015
Posted by: Jimmy
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've tried a handful of cases, and I havent actually liked any of them but these Apple leather ones. They have a great feel, and fit well. However, they are pretty over-priced, and regardless how well you take care of them, lighter colors like red are going to look horrid in just a few weeks. Just go with black or navy blue, and you wont regret it.

Should I get this or an Air?
on November 17, 2015
Posted by: Jimmy
Verified Purchase:Yes
Let me preface this by saying I have a an iMac at home for extensive coding sessions and graphics creation.
I was looking at purchasing either one of these or a 13" Air to supplement my web development work while on the go. Its true, you'll get more muscle in the Air, but this little computer is no slouch. Particularly what won me over was the following:
- The base model of this computer offered 256GB of storage. I've had a 128GB laptop in the past and it just didnt cut it for me.
- The base model of this computer comes with 8GB of RAM. 4 will get you by, but having 8 is so much less taxing on the machine when you have a bajillion tabs open.
- The resolution of this laptop is significantly higher. My code was sharper, my graphics too, and the UI of my applications had more real-estate in spite of a smaller foot print.
- Tiny bezels, not a fan of the big silver bezels on the Air
- Force Touch trackpad. This didn't concern me much at purchase, but I knew it was a new staple of OSX and after having the device for a while now it is common in my workflow.
- physical size, The screens on theses devices are pretty close in size, but the Air has more wasted space, giving the new Macbook a dramatically smaller appearance and footprint. I wanted this laptop primarily for keeping on my person and remoting into my home iMac. I like that it feels like the 11" air, while keeping a 4:3 aspect ratio.
As for the Air, I was going to have to upgrade the specs on the hard drive and ram fronts just to match the macbooks base model configuration. Sure the Air has a much better processor, but this Core M is heavily fascilitaed by a lightning fast drive and RAM to spare. I have had issues not having a USB-A port when working with clients on location. At home in a mac ecosystem I just airdrop things back and forth.

Shield the propellers of your compatible Phantom 3 series quadcopter against damage with these DJI Part 2 CP.PT.000188 propeller guards, which are sized for 9" propellers and feature a safety cord to prevent objects from getting between the guards.

Nice to have, but I dont use them all the time.
on November 17, 2015
Posted by: Jimmy
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had an accident with my Phantom (clipped a tree trunk), which spurred me to think about purchasing these. I had looked at a few other brands, some that featured quick disconnects, but decided I wanted to get the OEM ones, and, to me, the quick disconnect sounded as though the guards may just pop off if you did hit something. These are screwed on. Anyways, these offer some protection, but it's up to you rather or not they are worthwhile.
Some downsides:
- When running at full speed, these are very evident in your video feed.
- Flight feels a bit different
- If you bump something, you still have a chance of getting upside down and damaging your props
- These have to be removed to put your phantom in the DJI backpack
On the upside:
- While I dont typically fly with these, I go ahead and use them in unfamiliar areas or when allowing someone else to pilot my drone.
- They are cheap insurance and offer some peace of mind.

Trigger your smart lights with movement. The battery-powered Hue motion sensor can be easily installed anywhere in your home.
 

Can this motion senser integrate with other smart products? ie; Can this drive a Wemo light switch....maybe by integration via IFTTT?

Yeah that should work. It definitely works in Apple Homekit.
