Glad it is still possible to buy a copy of Office rather than renting it year after year.
It's Office, what can I say? Useful software. I mainly use Word.
No issues.

Grabbed this off the rack after briefly trying a couple. Not my usual careful shopping, but had just bought a laptop and was eager to get home.
Very nice scroll wheel. My other Microsoft mouse has an annoying ratchet when I roll it but this one is smooth.
Clicks requires a little more pressure than my other one, but not quite enough to bother me.
Faintly textured rubber grip on the side makes it easy to hold.

Incipio's NGP Case features soft shell technology that provides a barrier between your device and everyday use. This durable case is precision engineered with a translucent, shock absorbing Flex2O polymer material that is stretch and tear resistant. The NGP Case features a smooth exterior that allows for a no-slip-grip. This, combined with a thin design makes your case feel like a part of the phone.

Attractive thin clear case

Only case for this ASUS phone in our store. My son is satisfied. It does not provide as much protection as some phone cases, but it also does not add much bulk, so the phone still fits in his pocket.
Clear, so the shiny silver phone shows.

Works well but difficult to apply

Product installation directions did not correspond to the enclosed product. The directions showed a set of three tabs to align the screen protector and remove the protective film in order to apply it to the phone. There were only two tabs, in different places and it was really unclear how to do it without getting fingerprints all over. I took it back to the store and a fantastic Best Buy employee did it for me.
The actual screen protector seems to be fine now that it is installed.

Exceptional Phone for The Price
on April 21, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
This phone definitely far surpassed what I expected from a phone costing only $150. The phone feels great in my hand and has an incredibly receptive touchscreen and nearly instant fingerprint scanner. The camera can take beautiful photos but does need a steady hand. The screen quality rivals that of far more expensive phones the display is bright and attractive to look (and of course can be dimmed). The processing power is somewhat weaker than high end android phones and using intensive apps it showed here and there but for a phone of its price it isn't really a problem and performs as fast or faster than an Iphone for regular day to day tasks only in games does it lag very slightly, and the power of the phone can be adjusted to give it either higher performance or longer battery life. The battery life as the phone boasts is really incredible it can last me from 6 am to midnight doing homework and looking things up on it. What I would say is if you have tiny hands and small pockets this phone would not be particularly easy to carry in a pocket and you would either need to take it in hand or in a bag, I am pretty tall so it fit's in my pockets and feels good in my hand but for a smaller person I could definitely see it being cumbersome although increasingly phones are like this it is similar in size to the Iphone 6 plus but I like the proportions of this phone better as it is easier to hold in one hand.The other minus which I encountered but I am not sure if it is the phone itself or my account but I can;'t seem to get many games to run on the phone but I would not make this a deal breaker. Over all it is a really great phone for the low price and I would definitely recommend it over an Iphone or Samsung Galaxy as you will save a ton of money and will still be very satisfied. Also unless you have a need for tons of talk text and data ( and I mean tons all the time) I would Definitely recommend the TracFone network, I only pay about 8-12 dollars a month on my phone depending on how much data I use and I get better reception than my dads Iphone, I even get reception in the middle of nowhere hiking. So If you need a general quality phone I would go with the Zenfone 3 Max.

Bought this for our desktop when our laptop with integrated camera died.
Better resolution and low light response than the old one. Easy set-up. Only quibble is the 'clamp' isn't very adjustable and on top of our thin monitor, it is kind of balanced and sometimes tilts or even falls off.

It's a cable, it works. Seemed expensive - $10 more than the 6' cable ($29.99 vs. $19.99)

Works fine with our Sony camera battery

It's a camera battery charger. It works fine. It works at home in a regular socket and in the 110 outlet in the car. (Our Sony camera was an open box discount and we didn't realize the charger was missing and the cable in the box was only for downloading pic's until it was too late to return) This was considerably cheaper than the official Sony charger.

Give the gift of airtime with this TRACFONE prepaid wireless card that is redeemable for 120 minutes of service.

Very reasonably priced cell phone minutes, to go with my inexpensive flip phone, especially when teamed with my "Double Minutes for Life" and the coupon book that came with the phone.
Short calls use fractional minutes, unlike some plans that round up to full minutes.

I wanted a basic inexpensive flip phone so I could make calls if needed and family can reach me. I wanted something small enough to fit in my pocket. I'm a bit dyslexic and don't text, I have a real camera, I don't need to surf the net. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on the phone or a service plan. This fits the bill admirably.
This phone started with inexpensive 3 month cards with a decent amount of minutes, had "Double Minutes for Life" and came with a coupon book inside that gave additional minutes and service time. The screen automatically reads out the number of minutes and days left. It only uses fractional minutes, so quick calls don't even use a full minute.

What's great about it: It's a phone, it doesn't cost a fortune, long battery life
What's not so great: Photos are not very high res, but hey, that's why I have a real camera

Does current software support use of adoptive storage?
Yeah I put a 64GB micro SD in mine and it works fine but a few sorts of apps seem to not like to take to it but I don't think it so much has to do with the phone as with the apps themselves.

can this be used with sprint service
Yes I'm pretty sure that it can, also I used to have sprint but got Tracfone for it and I only pay around $10 a month now and have reception almost everywhere, far better than sprint and even my dads Verizon Iphone, they also let me keep my number and over all I could not be more satisfied. But if you still want to stick with sprint I'm pretty sure the zenphone supports it
