Good unit
on February 12, 2016
Posted by: chimnysweep
from New Orleans, LA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Replaced a failed Magellan (about five years old) with this unit. I find it is a little better at routing and the search feature is a lot better. There are some features on the Magellan that I was used to that this Garmin doesn't have:
1) No easy way to navigate to an intersection. I usually know cross streets more than I know addresses.
2) Not really intuitive in forcing it to pick different waypoints on a trip.
3) It doesn't power off after so long with no motion. Have to manually power it off, which I don't always remember.
Overall I like the unit. It just has different features than the Magellan.

It's a memory card. I plugged into my camera, it was recognised, and I was able to record over six hours of video on it.

Great volume
on October 16, 2015
Posted by: chimnysweep
from New Orleans, LA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I don't think audiophiles will like this little speaker (a little tinny), but it has great volume, which was of utmost importance to me. My biggest complaint is that there is no way to start/stop play or control the volume on the speaker itself. You have to use your device. You can skip back and forward, for what that is worth.

A classic story, embellished by Hollywood. Other than special effects and cast, not much other reason to watch it.

Decent, not great.

Verified Purchase:Yes
For a Dell machine, it seemed like a price that was too good to pass up. Just doing basic email, web surfing, word processing, but graphics seem to get scrambled at times.

What's great about it: Specs looked good, but execution isn't there.
What's not so great: Video seems to struggle a bit.

Handle storage demands with this Western Digital SATA solid-state drive. Its 560MB/s read speed and 530MB/s write speed are suitable for intensive applications, and its 2.5-inch form factor fits most desktops and laptops. The solid-state drive has no moving parts, making the drive resistant to shock to protect your data. Includes the WD SSD Dashboard to keep track of the drive's status.
 

I have heard that this can be used in a desktop application as well. Is this true?

Yes. You may need to purchase a frame for it since it is 2.5 inches and most desktops are looking for 3.5 inches. Other than the size, there is no functional difference between a desktop and laptop hard drive.

does it show pace during a run?

Yes. Just not sure how accurate it is at slower paces (under 2 MPH). It was totally disagreeing with my treadmill.

Can you reply via message by voice text??

No, it relies on canned answers, but it is pretty good at suggesting appropriate responses.
