Excellent "open box" item
on August 21, 2015

from Rockville, Maryland
Verified Purchase:Yes
This was a GREAT buy for under $300 as an open box item. IT took longer to get it out of the box than it did to hook it up.
Regular retail was over $700 and I got it from Best Buy's Open Box site for under $300.

As he grows, he (like most kids his age, which is 7) loves to get up and dance! He recognizes most of the songs and cant wait to show off his dancing at his 8th birthday party!

Really nothing to complain about....however......you don't realize just how small this cord is...until you hook it up....!
Do yourself a favor......get the next size up! Otherwise, it works exactly as it's supposed to!

Awesome TV........but.........
on January 23, 2015
Posted by: James
Verified Purchase:Yes
This TV would get 4 stars but for a couple of small issues..... Be VERY careful when you unpack it from the box! I assume that anyone buying it is upgrading from an older, smaller TV. Remember that as you go bigger, that the glass is going to appear to be more fragile. I got the whole thing set up and upon powering it up, there was a crack, sort of like a star crack on a car's windshield. Obviously not the fault of anyone and Best Buy was great about an even exchange..... But there was no indication that it was cracked! So, obviously an inner layer of glass was to blame.....So careful here! The control is a bit small and I've had it slip from my hands about a thousand times already. DEFINITELY buy yourself a sound bar upgrade! I always have to have the volume turned up to around 30 to hear anything....
The best part is the actual picture. Watching shows will reveal details that you have NEVER seen before! You will have to "tweak" the settings and you can find help from some nice people on Amazon, but most likely even with that assistance, you'll still have to "nudge" the color somewhat...
Get it right and you'll definitely ENJOY this TV!

I was hoping that this would a longer charge. I leave it on all night on the charger, but it only recharges my Samsung Galaxy 3 and my wife's Apple 4S......barely....before itself needs to be plugged in again......
Again, good strictly for emergencies only

Scroll and click your way through your favorite websites with this HP wireless optical mouse. The USB connection makes it easy to add this device to your computer, and a handy wheel lets you scroll vertically or horizontally. With its ergonomic design and ambidextrous setup, this HP wireless mouse is optimized for comfort as you work.
 

I removed the silver strap from the battery compartment. Will this affect the device? I heard a noise when I removed it; however, the device works fine.

I think it's there just to make it easier to pull out and replace the batteries when it's time to put new ones in.

Keep your charging and syncing a lot more manageable with this Insignia micro USB cable. The 12-inch length offers ample space without a lot of tangling, and the micro USB works with most standard ports. This Insignia micro USB cable offers fast charging and syncing of photographs, music downloads and other media.
 

Will this work for I phone 5s for charging?

No, this is not a lighting adaptor for Apple products.

Immensely powerful, portable, and capable, the 12.9-inch iPad Pro features a redesigned Retina display that is the most advanced on the planet, while the A10X Fusion chip delivers more power than most PC laptops. ¹ With Apple Pencil, the Smart Keyboard, and iOS—the most advanced mobile operating system—iPad Pro is designed for the world we live in today. ²
 

Can I purchase the 12.9 iPad 64gb at the store for the same price as it is online.

Apple sets retail prices and authorized dealers are expected to price them uniformly. However, you can occasionally find sales at other retailers, along with Best Buy. Remembe to ask for price match!

Enjoy jams when you run or exercise with help from these Sony wireless earbuds. The cushions on the earbuds keep these in place even when you move at fast speeds or jump about. These Sony wireless earbuds have a gold-plated L-type mini-plug that has a low profile so you won't hit it while working out.
 

Will these work with iPods? Is there a way to use as a "wired" headphones if the battery life has expired?

I have both a wire and wireless Beats - over ears set. Even with the wired set, if the battery is dead, you cannot hear anything. The Beats must be charged.

Will these pair with a 2016 Samsung SmartTV with Bluetooth? (Curious if anyone has tried b/c TV pairing screen says to pair with your Samsung headphones)

I've had an issue with getting a clean connection with our 2014 Samsung 65in curved UHD TV. It's somewhat a pain to do so, as you have to go into the menu everytime to turn off the soundbar and then have the headphones come on.

Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime Prepaid Cell Phone for T-Mobile Prepaid: Stay connected wherever you go with this cell phone's 4G LTE speed and built-in Wi-Fi that make it easy to access social media, check your e-mail and browse Web sites. The 5" touch screen simplifies content navigation.
 

I'd like to hear reviews and honest opinions from people who've had the phone for more than 3 months. Preferably for more than 6 months. Thank you!

This phone replaced a frozen Galaxy S3. I was planning on buying a Galaxy S-5, but have been extremely happy with the Grand Prime!

If you load it up with a lot of apps, I think it will slow tremendously however!

So, for a S-3 replacement, thumbs UP
Something higher like a S-5, your own risk

Can I buy this phone and still keep my H20 plan?

I don't know what an H20 plan is...but I took my sim card out of a frozen Galaxy S-3 and it popped right in and has worked flawlessly on my existing plan with T-Mobile.

Will this connect to the internet with Verizon fios as my internet company?

Will this connect to the internet with Verizon Fios as my internet company? I have read elsewhere where it might not so before I buy it I would like to know, so I don't spend my money on something I don't want to use. Thanks.
We recently moved across town and had Comcast before. We are currently using Verizon Fios and it appears to work just fine.

What is the dimension of the shipping box?

This is a weird way to answer your question. But here it goes!

I have the 42" Panasonic Plasma, bought in 2007, which needed my friend's work van to get it home.

I was able to fit this 50" Samsung TV in the box completely in the backseat of my 2004 Infiniti G-35x. There was about an inch or so on both sides to get it home.

Hope this gives you an idea of how "Big" the box is?
