Only drawback is the price.
on February 13, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
It is so nice to have a clean PC with no bloat ware and that feels and works like a premium machine. I have used the tablet alone only twice so far, but both times it worked flawlessly with the pen. I highly recommend, but its unusually high price tag (I would say $500 more than a similarly equipped HP or Dell 2 in 1) costs it a star.

Too many drawbacks.
on January 23, 2017
Posted by: Giberson
Verified Purchase:Yes
The earbuds are remarkably small and sound better than you would expect for such a small driver. But the battery life, when the charging piece is not connected, is only two hours and change--just not enough. And putting the charging piece on for extra battery life is not practical because the extra weight pulls the earbuds out. It is an impressive piece of engineering, but the bulky control just makes it impractical to use on the go. The sound is good--certainly much louder than I expected for their size--but not as good as either the X2 or X3.

Enjoy up to 8 hours of listening with these Jaybird X3 wireless earphones. Their Bluetooth connectivity syncs with the MySound app to create custom sound profiles, and they're sweat-proof for use during intense workouts. These Jaybird X3 wireless earphones are 34 percent smaller than the previous X2 model for comfort even under a helmet.

Best in ear bluetooth headphones.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have had every J-Bird X, the Beats 2, and multiple Sony, LG and Plantronics models. The X3 is easily the best. It is the loudest and best sounding and the mic performs reasonably well. Also, it appears to be both sweat and rain proof as I have used them successfully in a pretty heavy downpour. The reduction in price from the X2 makes it a no-brainer to recommend.

Great at tracking but not synching
on January 23, 2017
Posted by: Giberson
Verified Purchase:Yes
My other Fitbit fitness trackers sync easily with my phone and iPad, but for some reason the Aria always hangs up. It has gone two or three days at times without syncing. Other than that, the tracker is excellent. It is accurate and tracks sleep well too. I hope the syncing problem is a software issue and will be fixed with a new update.

The new Multi-Touch subsystem in the new iPad 9.7" and iPad Pro gives Apple Pencil striking capabilities alongside pixel perfect precision. Using incredibly sensitive pressure and tilt sensors, Apple Pencil instantly recognizes when you are pressing harder or shifting its angle. So you can vary line weight, create subtle shading, and produce a wide range of artistic effects — just like with a conventional pencil.

Best stylus I have used
on August 19, 2016
Posted by: Giberson
Verified Purchase:Yes
I use only stylus enabled phones and PCs. For me, it is by far the most intuitive interface for pointing. This light device is reliable and very easy to use. Biggest drawback is the obviously high margin price tag. Putting aside price, it is better than the Surface Pen and Samsung S-Pen in every performance category. Indeed, it's the only reason I now have an iOS device.

What's not so great: No clip, short batter life, expensive

Did not work with intended Dell Latitude 6540

But it did work in my Lenovo, so I kept it. The performance boost was very noticeable compared to the platter drive it replaced.

So far so good, but no cables in my box.
on January 4, 2016
Posted by: Giberson
Verified Purchase:Yes
The box has the hardware necessary for a standard desktop install, except that there were no cables. Luckily, I had a spare data cable from another machine or I would have had to make another trip to get one. Other than that, installation was easy. It was quickly recognized by my 2014 clone running an upgrade to Win 10 and partitioning was easy from within Windows. Just make sure to buy a data cable when you buy this drive in case you don't have one at the ready when you install.

Nothing special
on January 4, 2016
Posted by: Giberson
Verified Purchase:Yes
The graphics card is decent (pushing 2 4k monitors simultaneously) and configuration has fairly generous hard drive space (2 gb), but this is not a top performing machine. In fact, I have 4th generation i7 dell laptop with the same amount of ram and 1 gb of the same speed disk drive that is noticeably quicker when task switching and opening identical apps. I am not sure where the bottleneck is given the speed of the processor (6th gen i7) and the seemingly ample RAM (16 gb), but I suggest going with this model only if you can't find comparable specs in another machine for as good a price.

Only game in town for true ergo
on January 4, 2016
Posted by: Giberson
Verified Purchase:Yes
For better or worse there are no other off-the-rack keyboards offering true ergonomic support--that allow the hands to rest in a more natural position on the keyboard, than Microsoft's offering. I wish they had a version with tactile feedback (a clicky version), but other than that I have no complaints.
