Works well but pricey

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a good, no frills Bluetooth mouse. Unlike most of the competing mice there is no dongle required. I like that it uses a standard alkaline battery. Paired easily with a Surface Pro 4. Tracks well with smooth action. The only downside is the mouse itself feels a little cheap and flimsy. Considering the price, I expected a more solid-feeling mouse. Still it works perfectly and I am happy with it.

Can’t beat it for the price!

I love this little keyboard! It does exactly what it says, connecting flawlessly with 3 devices via Bluetooth. I paired it with an iPad and 2 windows 10 devices with no issues at all. They keyboard itself has a great feel with good keytravel and a solid press sensation. Very easy to type on, even for extended periods. For the price it is hard to imagine many better option. Highly recommended!

Punches way above its weight
on August 11, 2017
Posted by: Bryanmsi
from Irvine CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Excellent phone that would be a mistake to overlook.
Screen: very good. Not quite as sharp as Samsung S7 or S8 but plenty good enough
Speed - much better than I expected. Snapdragon 626 CPU and a clean version of Android go together like old friends. Everything is fluid and smooth, apps launch quickly, and no lag.
Battery - insanely good. I'm regularly getting 2 work days out of this thing. And the charging speed is awesomely fast. 20 minutes of charging while in the shower and 15 minutes in the evening before bed is probably enough to keep the phone running forever.
Looks - like a premium phone. Not cheap feeling at all.
Camera - pretty good. Bright light shots are nice, if maybe a tad oversharpened. Low lights shots do get blurry/grainy but still useable.
Software - awesome! The Moto actions are genuinely useful, Moto has the best driving mode on any platform, and the lack of a skin on Android is awesome!
Other - the fingerprint sensor is super fast and the fingerprint sensor navigation should be on every phone
Mods - surprisingly cool. The JBL speakers sound awesome, the battery mod easily makes a 3 day runtime, the style shells are very nice, and even the projector is pretty sweet.
Negatives - not many. It is not waterproof. It is physically very large for the size of the screen, kind of an old-school design with large bezels. There aren't a ton of mods yet and the ones out there are kind of pricey. With last years S7 getting close to the Z2 Play in price some people might be tempted by the waterproof design and better camera of the Samsung.
Overall, I'm super happy with the phone and would buy it again!

Great travel mouse
on July 7, 2017
Posted by: Bryanmsi
from Folsom, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Fantastic Bluetooth travel mouse. Folds flat for easy carrying and requires no dongle. Perfect companion for Surface users. When flat, power is switched off. When bent into a curve shape power is switched on and the mouse shape is very similar to a traditional full size mouse. The buttons have a nice click and the scrolling slide has a nice internal clicking sensation. The mouse sometimes gets confused though and occasionally scrolling or selecting text gets a little wonky, hence the 4 star review.

More than a hoverboard, less than a Segway
on May 5, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this with the hopes of using it for a 4 mile roundtrip to work. I'm a reasonably fit adult and have skied for many years. I have also owned a Segway (full size).
Pros:
The quality is great! Premium build, high-quality design, and everything is just top notch. It honestly felt even better than I thought it would considering the price. It works well and is in an completely different league than any hoverboard I have ever seen. Bluetooth connection to phone is very cool, but not all that useful. Battery lasts a long time and it has plenty of power.
Cons:
Knee steering is not very confidence inspiring. But the worst part is that the tiny wheels really just don't permit this to be used on anything other than a very flat surface. Even a 1 inch bump can be disruptive and forget it over rough pavement and that rules it out for any real commuting. It is just not a Segway only smaller.
If you are looking for a hoverboard, this gets 5 stars (only because I can't give 6). It is fantastic. If you are looking for a Segway at 1/5 the price though, this is not that. The small tire size and lack of handlebars make this very impractical for long trips unless the route is extremely smooth.

Smart watch/fitness hybrid
on February 24, 2017
Posted by: Bryanmsi
from Folsom, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Samsung really got the Gear Fit 2 right. From a hardware perspective it mops the floor with Fitbit. Curved color screen with Gorilla glass vs mono low-res plastic screen. GPS, Bluetooth music streaming, and Swappable bands too.
Samsung software is surpringly good, especially on Anroid. On iOS, it is very limited.
Fitness features work great and there is just enough smart watch functionality without being too complicated. In fact, I find this easier to use than a Fitbit or a full blown smart watch, it's really the best of both worlds.
Battery life is good, but not quite as good as a Fitbit. Easily 3 days of normal use, or a full day of heavy fitness tracking with GPS enabled for much of that time. Perfectly acceptable. The magnetic charging base is well designed too.
I'm very pleased with this purchase.

This shell case is perfectly made and snaps right onto the MacBook. It looks very light quality and the smoked grey color lets just enough of the illuminated Apple logo shine through. Feels great in the hand too.

Excellent laptop still relevant in 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is an excellent laptop with more-than-adequate performance even in 2017. It has all of the ports including the very useful MagSafe charger, USB, HDMI, and even an SD card reader. The retina screen is gorgeous and battery life is extremely good too. From a performance and usability perspective, this machine is only slightly slower than the 2016 MacBooks and arguable is more versatile than those machines.

Incredible value

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this for $19.99 and had to double check that the price wasn't an error. For the price of a case, this bundle comes with a case, a tempered glass screen cover, a battery, and a google cardboard VR unit. The case is decent quality, the glass screen protector is great (and came with an alignment tool), the battery seems to work fine, and the cardboard VR is kinda fun. I would totally buy this again if I got a new iPhone 7.

Bulky but solid
on December 5, 2016
Posted by: Bryanmsi
from Folsom, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
There only a few waterproof cases for iPhone SE and his seems to be one of the best. It is solid and robust yet the clear back shows off the good looks of the iPhone. It more than doubles the thickness of the phone though, and the deep side rails can make typing or hitting the screen at the bottom difficult. Using Control Center is nearly impossible. The camera lens cover is plastic and mine quickly got a blemish. Buttons become very firm and the mute rocker is difficult to operate. The mute switch also ends up reversed so you have to unlearn the positions when the case is on. Opening the charge port cover to charge every day makes me wonder how this port will hold up to constant open/close. The screen is exposed which is good and bad. It is nice to see the screen without any obstruction but it also means he screen is vulnerable to scratches and the gasket seal on the screen has to be perfect. Sounds from the speakers are audible but very hollow. Other people said I sounded like I was in a box when I called them.
LifeProof says the case is guaranteed it that just means if your phone drowns because the case leaked they will replace the case. You are still out one IPhone SE. And even if the case is waterproof day one, I can imagine at some point th charge port with develop a leak due to it being opened and close so often. Maybe not.
In the end, because I could know if the case was truly waterproof I treated it as just something that would provide accidental splash protection, and with all the bulk and downside, accidental splash protection was not enough reason to pay $90 and deal with the downsides. However if you need a waterproof case and can deal with the downsides, this is probably your best option.
