Small case

Posted by: kanehi
from Honolulu, HI
If you're going to order this case you better measure your gear first. This case was made for small cameras. Quality is great and there are storage for cards and battery. My camera didn't fit but I kept it anyways to place accessories.
What's great about it: Quality material
What's not so great: Small
I would recommend this to a friend!

This convertible laptop case can be used as a bag or a sleeve and holds most laptops with up to a 16" display. A removable, adjustable shoulder strap provides maximum comfort.

A plain case

Posted by: kanehi
from Honolulu, HI
Even though it's padded the padding is rather thin. There's no rigidity at all. It might protect your laptop from very minor bumps. The outer pocket is not too secured because the velcro has only two placemarks.. one at each edge and it doesn't really stick well together. I guess you get what paid for. I wouldn't even use it as a sleeve when I place it in my laptop backpack because it's too bulky. For transporting it'll be fine though. Power supply, extra battery and mouse will be a tight fit.
What's great about it: Price, material durability
What's not so great: flimpsy

The idea falls short.

I bought this item to place a screen protector for my camera's screen. It comes in different sizes but unfortunately not mines. I had to cut it to size but the paper tab that needed to be removed wouldn't come out cleanly and left residuals which was difficult to clean off. The plastic isn't clear but has a slight haze to it. I don't recommend this item. Too expensive for pieces fo plastic.
What's great about it: Different sizes
What's not so great: Difficult to install with the paper tab.

Huge disappointment at the store
By GemPro
When I went to pick up my order , it was $10 more than my confirmation indicated. They insisted they couldn't "see" the discount coupon on their computer. I couldn't get reception on my phone inside the store to show them my email. She had run my credit card and when I went to sign, I saw it was too much. She said the sale already went through. So I requested a return be done and I left the store upset and with no coffee. This was my first attempt to buy and pick up in store and I wi never do so again.

When you order online the price shouldn't change because technically you bought it already and needs a signature to confirm you picked it up.

Did not work
By debee
I returned this mouse within 24 hours. According to the product information on the blister pack it would work with my desktop computer. It did not. I researched on line for more information and found out that I did not have the required programs (bluetooth) to operate this mouse. This mouse apparently was designed for laptops, not older desktops.

Nice tablet but limited connectivity
By jambrose from Knoxville,TN
The tablet itself is fast, very functional and has a great display.
My only complaint is that I wish the salesmen had told me that I could have purchased the model with a built in hot spot.
Then, I could have used it anywhere rather than relying on a strong wi fi single that is not always avaiable.

SIM
March 3, 2016
For models with SIM cards to use with cell phone carriers the price of the tablet would be expensive plus you have to purchase plans or pay as you go. The best way is to use your cell phone's hotspot and use it as a way of connecting wirelessly but then you might have limited data buckets on your plan (if any)

Mac won't recognize, iPad won't recognize, iPhone won't recognize, ... battery in, power on, 'connect' button pushed, flashing blue light, but nothing! Pretty sad. I'll try again tomorrow (it's Friday the 13th, I should know better!). Then return.

Apple bluetooth

I guess Apple's Bluetooth is different. I tried linking my Android phone's Bluetooth to an iPhone and it wouldn't connect. I heard some Bluetooth headphones are not compatible either.

Perfect Fit!
By cwhiz from Ronkonkoma, NY
Saw these bags and first bought the taller and smaller one. My Nikon P900 just didn't fit it so I returned it and picked up this one. The bag has nicely made features and more importantly, holds my camera and other gear with ease.
It has an adjustable wide rubber sided shoulder strap and I brought it all the way in to use mostly as a carry handle. Unfortunately, this bag could have used a nice carry handle on it so I wouldn't have to re-adjust the strap for shoulder carry. Although, it would be something of an engineering feat to design one that would allow you to lift the bag without pulling the cover open with magnetic catches which work just fine. They do however, make it really easy to keep everything secure while walking around and going for the camera when needed.
The green and brown appointments look great and don't show any dirt or smudges. Al in all, a nice bag at at decent price but only got four stars due to the lack of a carry handle.

I know this works great with T Mobile. Band 12 works after an update, unlocked, no bloat wear, fast, bambo is cool, SD memory expansion, plus 64 GB is a lot of memory, comes with a turbo charger. I like this phone a lot. Highly recommend if you want an android phone.

Doesn't allow you to add an SSD drive
By jasonj566
I purchased and returned the new Alienware 13 R2 OLED laptop from Best Buy. I bought it with the anticipation of putting in a fast SSD drive, since it comes with a slow 500gb regular hard drive. I took it apart and Alienware does not have any other ports for an SSD. This makes no sense, I wanted to put a Samsung SSD 950 PRO NVMe 512GB SSD in the laptop. Save yourself the time and not buy one, I ended up just ordering the highest end off Alienware' s website.

One star because you can't place another drive?

Just replace the original HDD with an SSD. Most laptops don't have a second bay for another drive except the 17" ones like some models from HP.

Is Windows 8 better opposed to Windows 7.

A lot of users prefer Window's 7. It may be more user friendly but is Window 8 better?
Windows 8 isn't that better than Window 7. It does run a bit faster but you won't feel the difference overall. The only difference is the GUI interface now being called charms. Window 8 is better on touchscreens as it was meant to be for it. Some people don't want to leave their comfort zone so they chastise Window 8.

how do I turn off the touch pad on a new (8/2010) compaq laptop?

I just got a new compaq laptop v-series and want to turn off the touch pad and use a mouse instead. I can't find a button like my other laptop has above the touch pad (hp) and need to know how to do it.
You don't need to turn off the touchpad since you can use the external mouse at the same time.

I connected my laptop to my TV with an HDMI cord. What cord to I need to connect my laptop to my tv for sound?

If you mean to a HDTV the HDMI cable should be able to transmit the audio also. You have to tweak the sound card settings.

Do I need a built in modem in my laptop or can I connect thru a network?

No, you can get a USB (telephone) modem if there's none in the laptop. Lots of laptops these days have a wireless card and an ethernet connection to connect to a network.

Can I connect a laptop through cell phone without additional charger or connections?

My cell phone has unlimited text and web. If I purchase a laptop can it connect to the internet through that phone without any extra charges or connections?
Depends on the phone and carrier. Read the contract because almost all carriers prevent you from tiering your cell phone as a modem but everyone does it anyways. Some carriers will detect that you are using the bandwidth too much and will decrease it's speed... for TMobile it'll go from 3G to Edge mode.

finger print log in laptop

It's a program so you can use your specified finger to log in to your laptop. Your laptop must have a fingerprint reader. HP's fingerprint program can also be used to log in to a web site by swiping your finger. Dell's program won't. You have to register specific fingers for the initial setup.

If it's still under warranty you can contact Acer to see if there's a repair facility near you. USB ports are usually sturdy unless you really shove a device in it.

With Verision WIFI

Can I buy a Dell from Best Buy and still get the $15.00 per use WIFI from Verision?
You can ask Verizon. Sometimes these 'special' deals are exclusive to the business that's selling the device. It's more affordable because it's like a package deal.
