Purchased this for my daughter for Christmas. Specifically because wanted iPad. It works for what it does. Probably not worth the extra money. Android devices tend to have a lot more free products in Google Play

It's been an intense round. Your team and the enemy have been swapping leads like presents on Christmas. It's down to the wire and it's time for you to show them what you've got. You head toward the center of the map where the action is condensed and people are dropping like flies. You manage to slip into the ruins of a house, head for the second floor and position yourself at the window. You start eliminating targets as they dart across the street. Your blood is flowing, your heart is pumping and adrenaline is surging through your veins. There's only seconds left and you can taste the victory — not to mention a supremely epic K/D ratio. Just as time's about to run out, you hear the sound of footsteps from behind you. You're already shooting as you whirl around and you manage to take him down and save yourself. The screen fades to black and the room fills with the glow of your headset as the cheers and whoops of your teammates fill your ears. Glory is yours.When the action is most intense, you need to be able to rely on your headset to give you the edge. Whether it's the sound of enemy footsteps, breaking glass, suppressed gun shots, tactical respawns or fall damage, it can be the difference between glory and defeat. This Afterglow Universal Prismatic Wireless Headset is tuned by a Hollywood sound-design studio, and features 50mm neodymium speakers that sit inside an angled acoustic cavity for intense audio depth, sonic richness and clarity of sound. To get you even deeper in the zone, the headset features glowing lights that you can set to almost any color. The durable design ensures that they can withstand frequent, long-lasting gaming sessions. So connect to your game console and get ready for explosive action. You've got the advantage of crystal-clear sound on your side.

I got this for my daughter to use on our Xbox. It works great. It also has separate controls for chat and audio.
As a side benefit I hooked it up to the transmitter is attached to the Xbox for power and plugged the audio cables into our TV set output. You can mute the TV and the audio volume can be controlled by the device. The benefit is that someone can watch TV and hear (even with the TV muted and the xbox turned off). This is great if someone wants to watch a show while others are sleeping or having a conversion etc..

What's great about it: Can use it for any device
What's not so great: Kind of large and you still have to connect it to the controller for chat.

I use this as a back up for large game files on my computer. It has good fast transfer capabilities. The only issue, and it is not a big deal, is that the slide piece to shut it for protection is sometimes a bit sticky to shut.

How Often Used:3-5 times a week

I purchased these to use for listening to music at my office. The full ear muff helps block out other noises. the only drawback is that I wear glasses and they put a little too much pressure on the ears and it can be little uncomfortable after awhile

Sucks Water right out of the air

Purchased this for my daughters basement in her new house. It was a little damp. This dehumidifier works very well at removing water from the air. You should check on it every couple of days to dump the water out of it.

Good jump drive. I use it to back up my digital music library. A nice feature is the sliding dongle to pull the USB connection back into a protective case to prevent damage.
I can play mucis from is as well and do no notice any appreciable lag time.

I bought an unlocked pixel 2 XL 2 weeks ago then when I was going to buy one unlocked version for my mom Last week they told that they stop selling unlocked version. I'm just wondering why? And how long do I have to wait. Thanks

For now I believe if you want an unlocked phone you must buy it direct from Google for full price.

For the 300 dollars off with monthly instalment plan, does that 300 dollars get reimbursed if i were to pay all 24 months up front?

No it does not. There is nothing to reimburse because you have not paid it off.

it would not make sense to pay on it for 4 months and then get refunded $300 if you paid it off.

i already have verizon network. 4 lines. can avail this offer of buying this phone on monthly payment plan

Yes you can add this phone in and replace one of your lines. If the line you want to replace is not paid off you will need to pay it off first.

I just replace my phone, which is one of 4 lines, and there was zero interruption.

No it does not. this is to entice you to keep your contract for 2 years. This is on the carrier, NOT Best Buy. If you choose to pay it off early you will be charged the full original monthly payment times the number of months.

Fitbit Charge HR Wireless Heart Rate + Activity Wristband: This heart rate and activity tracking wristband is built to capture your movements and health patterns all day long. Easily monitor your heart rate so you can maximize your workouts, learn about your sleep quality and monitor progress on your goals.
 

Is the LG k7 compatible with the fitbit ??

Any smartphone that uses Android, Windows OS or Apple OS should be compatible with the FitBit. Rather it is not so much of a compatibility thing as installing the FitBit app to your phone.

If you have one of these operating systems and the FitBit app is somehow not available to you then it is probably a setting with your phone carrier.

How long is manufacturers warranty?

FitBit offers a one year manufacturers warranty

However, Best Buy does offer an accidental damage plan that I would strongly suggest.

Why do you not carry the XL size Charge HR Activity Tracker?

I see your question was posted 9 months ago. Since then Fitbit does not list devices as just small, medium, large etc.. but rather by maximum write size. Which in my mind makes a lot more sense.
When you click on the product it will show you currently available options for max wrist size.

They currently do carry the Charge 2 HR in small and large or wrist size up to 6.7 and 8.1 which according to FitBit are Large an Xl which I will bring to the moderators attention.
