Absolutely Worth It! THE SCREEN and Functionality!

I had the Surge, the Blaze, Forerunner 235 and Vivofit HR... I returned all of them... I loved the Blaze but it wasn't waterproof, the Surge I've had several times and had moisture issues... the Forerunner was MEH and Vivofit HR was alright... but the screen sucked... for the price and what you get, sure it won't last you 6-7 days of battery life, but for the look, feel and gorgeous screen... I am willing to sacrifice a few days less... notifications are awesome and did I mention the screen is just absolutely gorgeous... I wore my Surge while working out with this and it captured almost the same exact data... I highly recommend you get this... I pair it up with my Samsung S7 Edge! Perfection!!!

I know it's a bit pricey but it's worth it... I bought 2 for myself and 1 for my friend... I've had Android phones and overtime the charging hole would get warped and damaged... I love this because I just literally lay it on top and it charges flawlessly... it also doesn't stop charging when notifications or other disturbances come in... the old version of this charger had a bug that made it stop charging if the phone received a text or some other notification... odd... but this works flawless! I recommend this over the new one because it houses the phone more securely, the other one is a bit flimsy and my phone kept falling!

I've had multiple Apple products ranging from iPods to iMacs... I wanted to like this but the CoreM (1st Gen) just wasn't powerful enough for my daily needs... I would be multi tasking using Word/Excel/iTunes and Safari and it would freeze up 4-10 second lags... it's not annoying at first, but over the days I had it, it became an annoyance! I ended up returning it and exchanging it for something more powerful... Like I said, if you have basic day to day tasks and don't need to multi task, then this laptop is for you, if you work on office documents, play music and use Safari all that the same time, this is not the machine for you... Get something with a faster/stronger processor... MacBook Pro or MacBook Air...

The laptop is extremely light, thin and sturdy... The only few gripes I have is the following:
1. The fan is somewhat always on, I bought the i7 version and yes, I know it's a monster processor, but geez... kind of consumes the battery a bit
2. Glare on the screen, it's so glossy that it's hard to see, but the pictures and texts look crisp and clear!
3. The color, fingerprint magnet, but I guess I will have to stop being so obsessive in wiping it down...

When I got the computer, right out of the box it had the error screen, I was going to return it but I just did the factory reinstall of HP software myself, third box down from the left menu to be exact, took 2 extra hours to get it up and running... now it's awesome..
Previously, I bought the 12 inch laptop from the company that's named after a fruit... loved it but it was sluggish... can't really compare CoreM to i7... I bought the 12 inch laptop at $300 discount, but I decided to just coughup the $$$ because this computer would hold over longer than the 12...

Good Tracker - Accurate - But I got the SKIN rash

Thank goodness I have Elite Plus... I will end up returning mine! I love this band and I love what it does, unfortunately, looks like I will be returning because of the skin rashes! I ended up getting one on each wrist. I shower regularly (twice a day) and I clean this thing with peroxide... I teach fitness daily at 24 and I depend on this device for all my stats... my husband has the same band and he hasn't gotten a rash at all, he's had his for almost a year... odd.

Stunning, thin design A sleek, sub-1" thin forged aluminum design with diamond-cut beveled edges is just one of the premium features you'll find on the new Inspiron 15. It's easy on the eyes and feels great to hold. The backlit keyboard makes working in low-light environments much easier - it spoils you for anything less. And the edge-to-edge touch display uses Corning® Gorilla® NBT™ Glass to complete a truly breathtaking laptop.Crystal clear sound Waves MaxxAudio® Pro brings crisp, rich sound to your favorite music, movies and videos.

I bought this May 2 and ended up returning it the next day. I am somewhat a power user and let me tell you, I am thankful there is a 14 day policy for returns, otherwise I would have slammed my head on a wall.
Out of the box it looked great. It was a bit heavy, but looked sturdy. Started up the computer and thats where it all turned south. Took forever to install, took forever to start up apps and just lagged.
I ended up exchanging with a Toshiba i7... it was the same price and you get a few more features on the Toshiba that the Dell didn't have. maybe I got a lemon but my prior Dells all had problems..

Below is from SAMSUNG's WEBSITE:

A number replaced by x indicates that the enclosure is not rated for that spec.
What is an IP rating?
IP (or "Ingress Protection") ratings are defined in international standard EN 60529 (British BS EN 60529:1992, European IEC 60509:1989). They are used to define levels of sealing effectiveness of electrical enclosures against intrusion from foreign bodies (tools, dirt etc) and moisture.
What do the numbers in an IP Rating mean?
The numbers that follow IP each have a specific meaning. The first indicates the degree of protection (of people) from moving parts, as well as the protection of enclosed equipment from foreign bodies. The second defines the protection level that the enclosure enjoys from various forms of moisture (drips, sprays, submersion etc). The tables below should help make sense of it:
