Very nice
on November 28, 2016
Posted by: Jason
This is the new gen controller that comes with the PS4 Pro that has the cutout for the lightbar to shine through the touchpad. It also seems to have a connection through USB that allows you to use it through USB instead of bluetooth for less latency. the color is very bright red, and looks pretty awesome. i hope they redesigned the stick material so they don't wear off as easily as the old ones, but only time will tell!

Nice TV!
on November 27, 2016
Posted by: Jason
This is a great TV! Bought it for my brother's house in his family room to hang on the wall and replace is old 2007 Samsung Plasma TV that recently died. This TV is so light and was easy to install. Very thin, and almost no bezel on it. TV itself looks great, and it was such an awesome deal on here.

Good headphones!
on November 22, 2016
Posted by: Jason
these headphones sound amazing, and the bass boost works well. for wireless headphones, there's no noise or static in the audio which is great. they're very comfortable. the battery lasts a decent amount of time, nothing special though but you can play while plugged in. the mic isn't that great. it had a weird buzz in the background that others hear which to them may be annoying. honestly, the mic that comes with the ps4 sounds much better. however, the people I play with stopped complaining after a day and got used to it! either way, doesn't matter, bc the headphones sound so good!

Love it!!
on June 8, 2016
Posted by: Jason
So when it was announced Chromebooks were going to get the Google Play store, I knew it was finally time to buy one. Being in the Android ecosystem, it only makes sense. I was excited to see that new Acer 14 inch aluminum Chromebook, but after numerous reviews stating it wasn't performing nearly as well as past Acer CB's, I decided against it. Everybody was pointing at last year's model, the CB5-571, or the Acer Chromebook 15. I read reviews, and people showed how snappy it was, and how even though it's only the dual core processor, this processor outperformed the quad core in the new Acer 14 like crazy! The fact that it was a big screen, and had speakers on the top solidified the decision for me. The price is awesome for these things. Rather than having to use my huge desktop PC in the summer which makes my room a good 10 to 15 degrees hotter than the rest of the house, I can leave it powered off and use my Acer 15 which practically generates no heat at all. Seriously, I've never heard the fan kick on, and it never gets hot to the touch. I love this thing. The screen is a great size, and for a sub $300 laptop, the screen is great. It's matte so it won't be a fingerprint magnet, and it's a full 1080p HD screen. The speakers are awesome and they sound great; it makes sense having them on top rather than on the bottom..what a stupid decision on the new Acer 14! Besides that, this thing has been running great. When I shut it off or let it go to sleep over night, it barely loses 1% of battery power. Right now I'm on my third day without charging it and it's at 52%. I use it typically on and off heavy usage between 6 and 9pm each night after work, so it's really running well. I like the keyboard as well; many said they didn't like the keys..sure they're laptop keys and a bit mushy, but I type just as fast on this thing that I do my normal logitech PC keyboard.
All in all, great Chromebook and totally worth picking one up, especially now when the Play Store comes to them!!

Cool!

Posted by: Jason
This thing is pretty cool! Had a cheap google cardboard I got with my Megadeth Dystopia cd, but it only worked with small phones, and the experience was pretty bad. I got this when I pre-ordered my GS7 and it's real cool! Feels sturdy, and watching stuff on it is awesome. I like it a lot!

Nice watch
on December 29, 2015
Posted by: Jason
I've been wanting a Moto 360 since the first gen, but I opted for the Gear 2 last year because Tizen seemed to work better with my Note 4 than Android Wear at the time. Luckily, Wear has matured over the past year and I figured it was time to get a new watch. The 360 2nd gen is awesome. Looks great, works great, and I love having a round smartwatch finally. Totally worth it!

Great for PS4
on November 23, 2015
Posted by: Jason
Used this to pop open and pop into my PS4. Works great. The speed claims it's as fast as the stock hard drive in the PS4, but idk, maybe the 2TB size makes it a little slower. Something about it is a tad slower than stock. When I hit the share button, it takes much longer to save a game video when in a game than it did on the old hard drive. Either way, that small sacrifice for 2TB of space was worth it. Good price, too.

Great
on November 23, 2015
Posted by: Jason
Had to get this battery because the stock Note 4 one I had for a year started going out. Once I'd hit around 25% on the battery, it would drop within seconds to 10%, then just shut off. I was one month out of warranty, so of course Samsung and Verizon wouldn't help me. I bought this new battery, and it works like new. Must have just been a faulty battery.

Great TV
on November 23, 2015
Posted by: Jason
Did a lot of research in what to buy after having bought my last HDTV back in 2008 which was a 32 inch Sony Bravia 720p HDTV for about $550. Great TV, and had no problems with it over the years, but I figured I should futureproof myself and finally get 1080p, but then decided to get 4K just in case. The apps are pretty cool, but I already have a Chromecast and Nexus Player, but I'm starting to find myself using the built in Amazon Instant Video because it can show movies in 4K (it will on Netflix too, but you have to pay extra for it..) and the Chromecast and Nexus Player only output to 1080p, so that's nice.
The picture is great. The bezel is so much smaller than my Bravia, that even though 40 inches was a big step up from 32, the size isn't that much bigger. Looks great for a bedroom.
Works great on PS4 with game mode on. Everything looks crisp, and the few miliseconds of delay disappear once you switch to game mode, and everything plays great.
Overall, great TV. Bought it on recommendation from a friend, and we're both loving it.

Combine incredible water resistance with a great screen and a powerful processor, and you get the Samsung Galaxy S7. It's built to withstand dunks in water for up to 30 minutes, and then you can wipe it off and get playing with a 5.1-inch touchscreen. The Samsung Galaxy S7 enjoys a quad-core processor for ultra-fast responsiveness.

google play issues
By adam
The majority of the time this phone is fantastic, but my HUGE issue is that over wifi I can not download/update my apps via the google play store. I have taken the phone into best buy and had the samsung rep look at it, and they aren't sure why it is doing this. I have looked on line and found a lot of people having similar issues. 4g is no problem, but I don't want to waste my date plan while trying to update or download apps. Huge disappointment.

have you tried seeing if another phone works on wifi? are you having other wifi issues? i've read that some people were having wifi issues on other carriers, so maybe you need to exchange your phone for another if wifi is an issue.

Solid computer. Ready for gaming out the box.
By JamseV
My overall experience with the computer has been positive. The system is already preloaded with Windows and the setup is straightforward. My one complaint thus far is that my system did not come with the RGB remote controller to change the lighting on the tower. However, this is not a huge problem because the lighting can be changed manually in the Launch Lighting Controller App.

I had the same complaint, and when I contacted customer service, they said the remote became faulty over time and they stopped shipping the PC with it, and upgraded everyone to smart LED's which means they can be controlled by the app. The old ones apparently couldn't!

Are you able to hear yourself in the headphones to decrease the volume at which you actually speak into the mic? I will shell out the dough for my roommate, so the shouting stops!

seems like only if you use it on PC. on my PS4, even though I set in the software to have sidetone on max, i can't hear a single thing through the mic, even if it's right next to my mouth. sucks a lot because these cans cup your ears really well, so you have no idea how loud you're talking.
