Great case, good concept!
on November 18, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
The concept is similar in that you buy a base case for your phone -- it costs $40 -- but instead of using a slot system, the Hold Force has a magnetic back to which you can attach various accessories, including a PowerStation Plus Mini battery, folio cover and credit card holder.
This case is relatively small, non-intrusive, and provides a bit of protection around the edges of the device.
I am please so far with the case and the Wallet accessory.

Best all in one cable modem available!
on November 18, 2016
Posted by: iambobbyv
Verified Purchase:Yes
Although the ARRIS SURFboard SBG7580-AC is sold as a modem, it’s really three different products in one. First, you’ve got a blazing fast modem rated at 1.7 Gigabits. Next, you’ve got the blazing fast 1300 Mbps dual band wireless router. Finally, a Gigabit Ethernet switch for any computers that you want to hard-wire into your network. This is certainly a large modem, much more so than the compact models that are often provided by your cable provider.
Equipped with 32/8 channel bonding, the ARRIS SURFboard SBG7580-AC is built with some of the best and most recent advancements in this technology. Channel bonding is a unique way of aggregating both upstream and downstream channels to deliver improved speeds. This means that there are 32 individual download channels and 8 upload channels that work cohesively to provide transfer speeds that are in fact faster than any cable ISP.
So far I am very please with this product!

Great slim wallet for Mophie Hold Force case
on November 18, 2016
Posted by: iambobbyv
Verified Purchase:Yes
After buying the case, owners have a choice of three accessories. The first, the Wallet, simply adds two card pockets. The Folio improves on this, adding a third pocket and relocating cards to the inside of a lid.
I chose the Wallet, because it is small and convenient to carrier or attach to the Hold Force Case.

Nice Folio Wallet Case for a decent price!
on November 12, 2016
Posted by: iambobbyv
Verified Purchase:Yes
Mophie's concept with the magnetic base and accessories is a great idea, but limited to three accessories, the folio wallet case, wallet case and battery pack. I chose the black base case and the folio wallet case.
So far I'm satisfied with the folio wallet, it is loose unless you have cards in the slots. Other then that it works just fine.

Stay comfortable and keep your laptop elevated with the Twelve South BaseLift pad for MacBook. The portable pad grips the bottom of your MacBook and shields you from the extreme hot or cold of the metal case. The Twelve South BaseLift pad for MacBook folds to make a stand that lets you work at the perfect angle.

Great Laptop Stand, Stylish and durable!
on November 4, 2016
Posted by: iambobbyv
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've used many Twelve South products for my smartphones, tablets, and laptops. Their craftsmanship and design match that of the products their are intended to be used with.
I have this specific one for my daughter's 13" MB Pro and she loves it. I bought a similar style on Amazon from Elago for my MB Pro 15", unfortunately it did not hold up long. The adhesive slowly loosen over a few weeks of use; basically rendering the stand useless. So, I spent the extra $ and bought the Twelve South brand, of course I had reward certs available to drop the price down to $16, which was a bargain!
Anyhow, I digress. My point is don't waste your money on a cheaper brand, you may spend a bit more. In the long run it is well worth the extra $.
Thanks!

This remote was part of a special promotional bundle when you buy a Nvidia Shield TV and Gaming console. Extra bonus, since this controller is usually sold separately for average price of $50.

I've read many reviews of other Streaming players such as Apple TV, Roku, Amazon Fire Stick etc.
After comparing all the features and functions my conclusion was to get the Android Shield TV.
Check out the comparison chart and you decide for yourself.

The 9.7-inch iPad Pro delivers an unprecedented combination of portability and performance. At just 6.1mm thin and weighing less than a pound, iPad Pro features the brightest, most advanced Retina display ever with True Tone, advanced sensors that adjust the display to your environment for even more comfortable viewing. It has a powerful A9X chip with 64-bit desktop-class architecture, four speaker audio, advanced iSight and FaceTime HD cameras, Touch ID fingerprint sensor, ultrafast Wi-Fi connectivity, and up to 10 hours of battery life. When you add Apple Pencil with its pixel-perfect precision, and the incredibly thin Smart Keyboard, iPad Pro becomes even more versatile.*

Much improvement overall performance
on October 22, 2016
Posted by: iambobbyv
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have the iPad Pro 12.9 and this 9.7, I am very happy with both, my wife use the 12.9 since she preferred the larger screen to watch movies etc.
The 9.7 iPad Pro is convenient for me to carry in my backpack along with my 15' MB Pro. The overall performance on this 9.7 iPad Pro is much improved with a faster processor 64-bit A9X/M9 compared to the iPad Air 2 which is 64-bit A8X/M8 processor. Also improvements to the cameras both front and rear.
- iPad Pro 9.7 has a 5MP 720 HD and a rear 12MP 4k HD camera with flash Front camera and 13 MP.
- iPad Air 2 front 1.2MP 720p HD camera and a rear 8MP 1080p HD camera
- iPad Air 2 display is 2048×1536 pixel at 264 pixels per inch
-iPad Pro 9.7 display is identical to the iPad Air 2.
- iPad Pro 9.7 has a 5MP 720 HD and a rear 12MP 4k HD camera with flash Front camera and 13 MP.
- iPad Air 2 front 1.2MP 720p HD camera and a rear 8MP 1080p HD camera
- iPad Air 2 display is 2048×1536 pixel at 264 pixels per inch
-iPad Pro 9.7 display is identical to the iPad Air 2.
Basically there are enough improvements for a power user to upgrade from iPad Air 2 to the iPad Pro 9.7.
Well, that is all for me.

Better than the first gen!
on September 4, 2016
Posted by: iambobbyv
Verified Purchase:Yes
Personally I like the second gen of the Asus Zenwatch line over the first gen. The original is available in one size, whereas the ZenWatch 2 comes in His and Her’s sizes. Also new with the Zenwatch 2 are different color options: Gunmetal, Silver and Rose-Gold.
The Zenwatch 2 has a power/crown button; which can be pressed to turn the display on or off, and held down to access the apps menu.
Zenwatch 2 uses bluetooth 4.1 vs 4.0 in the original.
The original Asus ZenWatch does not have a built-in speaker, whereas the Asus ZenWatch 2 (men’s version) does.

Are they coming out with a smaller size??
They currently have only these sizes:
• Men’s ZenWatch 2 WI501Q: 49 x 41mm x 9.4mm
• Women’s ZenWatch 2 WI502Q: 45 x 37mm x 10.4mm
Essentially you can get the smaller one, they have three different colors: gunmetal, rosegold & silver.

trouble syncing with my phone
I have a LG smart phone
I had the original band and had no trouble syncing with my cell phone
Bought the Up3 and had to return it because it would not sync to my phone
Now my second one will not sync either
I have checked on both jawbone app and my phone and everything is updated
Is anyone else having the same problem?

Your purchase should come with a free Geeksquad setup. If you are having syncing issues on a second device, I would definitely take it into Best Buy and have Geeksquad assist. Take advantage of this service while it is included in your purchase, my not exactly sure when it expires, but definitely worth checking out.

Microsoft Surface Pro 4 Tablet: Use the 12.3" HD touch screen to navigate Web pages, write and upload content and play games. The kickstand makes it easy to adjust Surface Pro 4 for hands-free viewing or typing, and Wi-Fi lets you connect to the Internet quickly.
can I add ram to a surface pro 4 that only has 4gigs
Unfortunately Microsoft only has the 8GB available on the Intel Core i5, 256GB SSD, 8GB RAM model. So in order to get 8GB of RAM, you basically have to also get extra SSD space. Which means you'll end up paying $200-$300 extra just to get more RAM. But on the plus side you'll also gain more storage space.
Even if you take it to a computer repair shop to add extra RAM, it will cost you $200-$300 for labor and hardware. Not to mention you'll be risking voiding your warranty.

mouse/trackpad
I have to do a lot of typing and with most laptops the mouse pad can make that a real pain, on my current laptop I just hit a button and I can turn my mouse pad off as to not brush the pad with my wrists causing my document to do things I don't want so on this laptop can you turn the mouse pad off?
Yes, you can turn the touchpad off in the systems settings > devices > mouse & touchpad > toggle the touchpad from on to off.
