5tb. 75 MB/s. Portable. I wish it was faster but it is enough for consumer video editing.

I purchased a defective unit :(

Verified Purchase:Yes
Unfortunatly I purchased a defective unit. When flying outside the drone would either fly too high and shut off or veer in random directions on its own. And the range was very short in a suburban neighborhood and at a ski resort. I'm glad I purchased at best buy as they refunded my money with no hassle.

Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro Tablet: You can easily watch movies and shows on the go using the Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro, which features an 8.4" touch screen that's large enough to ensure clear media viewing and small enough to facilitate transport. The 16GB storage offers room to house pictures, videos, music and other important files. Plus, you can connect to the Web to check your e-mail and access social media.

Do not buy if you use with stock rom. I had trouble playing YouTube videos with the stock rom but once rooted and cyanogenmod installed this tablet is an absolute gem. The screen is incredible. It's not amoled and that's a great thing for me because in productivity use it gets better battery life and the colors are great. It has 802.11ac so if your network supports it this thing is the ultimate portable remote desktop. The build quality is almost perfect except for a small flex in the chassis if you squeeze it and the camera is good for everything except taking pictures. That means barcode scanners, augmented reality apps, video chat work perfectly. Battery life is great. I can use it all day without plugging in. On standby it will last almost a week with occasional use. And it has a microsd slot which I consider absolutely necessary on an android tablet. The bottom firing speakers are stereo and sound great, especially in portrait mode, but landscape mode would have been served better by top and bottom firing setup like the Tab s. If you need an android tablet with what I consider my perfect screen size resolution and display technology (lcd) and you know how to root and install a bootloader and flash a new rom this is the best tablet you can get. If you want better out of the box performance get either the Tab s or the ipad.

This case was an awesome accessories purchase for my yoga 2 pro. It's very stylish and as an added bonus it stopped the yoga screen from flexing when used in tablet mode.

Industry proven for $199
on January 28, 2013
Posted by: SiaVegas

Verified Purchase:Yes
I read as many reviews I could until I came to the descision that a. I need 60fps with audio (unlike sony) for anything this camera was intended b.720 is not 1080 but its still HD (it does 1080 @30fps which is not for action) c.the wifi control is sooooooooo freakin cool (Sonys app is better but I'm sure gopro will update, not sure about contour) d. The accessories are cheaper and in most cases of better quality then any competitor (contour is the closest I've seen that are currently available, new models were shown at NAB but nothing stood out) I purchased a black for some of the extra frame rate and resolution options so now the included remote works with my two white models as well, which brings me to "e". a nice upgrade path with great compatibility between models. D. I love the housing, talk all the smack u want about it being boxy, it's fantastic, the latch mechanism is so solid, it takes an extra step to unlatch since the hero 2 but for how solid it is its well worth the extra 2 seconds to work it, and the flat lens is a must for underwater shots. The battery life is not as good as Sonys but for $11 u can get a spare online and that will give u 1.4 hours of recording per battery (that's a lot of video when u consider the fact that u have to edit the darn thing). If ur looking for an action cam for 199 u just can't go wrong with a gopro. The only others that compete at 199 are missing features or fall short on some of the features they have. On a side note protune in the silver and black models are nice as u can do some color correcting with a higher bitrate which will yield better results then not having a higher bitrate, but If that's you then your spending more then $199/camera to begin with so it's not very high on the priority list. The 15mbps video provides enough detail for a FOV camera to look good and deliver your outdoor experiences in wonderful glorious HD. This is not a camcorder replacement. There is no built in LCD, but who cares since I would use the always larger display on my phone anyway.
What's great about it: Industry "accepted" FOV camera w/wifi and 60fps + solid audio.
What's not so great: There's a higher specked model for more money, and it will provide a slughtly noticeable difference for those who care,.

is this at 7200 rpm?

This drive is @ 5400rpm I believe and can write at an actual 75MB/s. I believe the read is at 110MB/s but I could be off a little. Its enough for smooth editing of 4K30p video but I would get an SSD if thats your primary purpose or you need 4k60p editing.

Bluetooth headphone

Need recommendations for Bluetooth headphones; my 2 yr old Plantronics won't connect. SAMSUNG website and chat gave me run a round. Would like on ear/over ear but would consider good buds. Thanks.
Lg tone 730+. Best bang for the buck.
