Purchased this for my 10 year old daughter as a gift after she dropped and ruined her apple ipad (2nd generation). I am happy to report this tablet does all of the things she did with her other tablet (the only difference I have noticed is a slight drop in resolution quality). For the price and my daughter's usage, it fits the bill. The price was right, the design is cool and it comes with an SD slot for extra storage (this is a huge feature as my daughter stores plenty of music, video and pics). Tablet was an absolute breeze connecting to my home Wi-Fi and my daughter's Bluetooth headset. Also, very decent speakers/sound output. In all, very pleased. Go ahead, buy one!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I recently got rid of cable (company charging way too much for cable boxes and remotes). I have now gone with an all smartTV lineup at home and I can't believe I waited this long. I purchased this smartTV for my bedroom. The picture looks very good, sound is adequate. The ROKU stick is the frosting on the cake. I have access to slingTV, Netflix, Youtube and other apps. The tv is super light and you can carry it with ease. In all, especially for the price, a homerun!

Purchased the VL on 9/1. I liked it so much, I decided to exchange it for the newer model 5220 (I figured the newer model must be better!). Well, I tried the 5220 for almost a full day and other than for the aesthetics, to me, it didn't justify the $30 bump. (I'm sure if you talk to a Plantronics representative they will use their electronics-evil-spell jargon to convince you. lol) Anyway, a day later, I returned the 5220 for the original VL. I reiterate, it's not that I didn't like it, it's just I didn't feel the "upgrades" were worth the additional $30.
I am very happy with the VL. Sound is adequate. Everyone hears me clear. Love the "answer or ignore" voice command when receiving an incoming call. The on/off switch bar is great (I don't have to wonder whether my device is on or not. The volume control lever is easily accessible and you can glide it up/down smoothly. Connects to my devices with absolute breeze. I wear reading glasses and I am able to have both things over my ear with no discomfort. In all, I am very pleased with my FIRST EVER bluetooth headset.
If you boxed me into a corner and demanded I gave you one thing that would make the VL better, I would have to say the volume. Hope my review helped.

Purchased these for gym and travel use. I am able to use gym machines, including treadmill, without them falling off (with hooks). I have also gone jogging with them and they stay in place (with hooks). Trips are more convenient now. Charge holds for a long time.
For me, the sound quality is more than enough. Anything louder and I'm sure to visit the local ENT specialist at some point :)
In all, you can buy these with your eyes closed. I recommend!

I purchased this unit about 2 months ago. Perhaps this unit came with problems from the factory? This particular unit runs non-stop and I must stop it manually by holding down the "cancel & drain" buttons. I usually stop it when I feel the dishes are clean. I do this everytime I use it. If I don't, the dishwasher remains steady on. I have read the manual over and over and did note the 110 minutes for a normal wash cycle (which is super long to begin with). I tested it again yesterdan and 2 hours later had to "cancel and drain" as usual. As you would imagine, this is a tremendous inconvenience. On a better note, it does leave the dishes clean (what else would you expect when your dishwasher is running for over an hour?) It is also pretty quiet. I love samsung products but I have been let down by this dishwasher. I recently returned to BB for a new refrigerator but wouldn't dare look at the samsung ones. Right now, I have a bitter taste in my mouth and don't want to take another chance on a samsung appliance. I hope my review helps you make a better decision. Like I said, maybe this unit came faulty from the assembly line?

Purchased this unit on 12/01/14 while everyone else in the store kept walking out with Samsung units....lol... I purchased this tv over a Samsung because it was the only one I could find for this price with the 120hz refresher rate. This tv sits in the playroom and is being used mainly for playing video games (XBOX, PS3 - through HDMI cables), cartoons and streaming youtube/netflix/hulu...etc. Picture looks impressive and the sound is quite nice. Happy with my investment so far. If this is your price range, go for it. You won't be disappointed. Good luck.

Purchased this unit on 11/29/14 after walking around the store for over an hour debating whether or not to invest in this brand. Thanks to Bestbuy reviewers, I decided to floor the accelerator and not look back. At this time, I will say this, I am very pleased with it. In fact, I first purchased the 32" but returned it within 2 hours for this size. I originally wanted the 40" for $179 but missed out on that deal. For now, I have this unit in my kids playroom and it looks great. They mainly use it for cartoons, netflix through play station 3 and xbox 360 (HDMI inputs). The 60hz refresher rate seems like a non-issue so far. Video, movies and games look very good. Sound is adequate for the price. Too soon to comment on it's longevity or durability. Hope this review helps you in the decision making process.

impressed with graphics and speed

Hi, and thanks for reading.
I was a little skeptical about spending $350 on this unit because I knew my 10 year old son would fall in love with it and bogart this tablet from me, LOL. As predicted, he now has this thing fully loaded with video games (free google apps). He plays most of the day without complaining of any lagging or unexpected freezing.
He tells me "dad, this is so much better than the other tablet because I am able to download much more stuff on google than with the other tablet!" This tablet also gives you the option of expanding it's memory -SD slot card-, this is HUGE. The graphics are absolutely great and the sound is very adequate for it's size.
My only complaint about this tablet is the low megapixels for the camera/video function.
As for me, I use it occasionally to surf the net, shop online and watch Netflix or youtube - while my son is sleeping, of course. LOL -. No one in my house uses this tablet for business, so I can't comment on it.
As I am typing this, along comes my son and says "dad, you're draining the battery". Fortunately, the battery life is very good too.
