So far, so good
on August 29, 2018
Posted by: IndoorBikingRocks
Verified Purchase:Yes
I acquired the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 (10.5" - 64GB) and after watching some videos on the accessories, I decided to purchase the Book Cover Keyboard. Because I didn't simultaneously purchase the Table S4, I wasn't eligible to get the half off discount for the book cover keyboard, so I paid full price.
I was looking for durable protection and a keyboard for productivity. So far, I really like it, though I have only had it for less than a week and I haven't used it much.
I like that the book cover keyboard isn't too heavy. I had bought one for my iPad about 5 years ago and that weighed a ton! I don't think the stylus holder is a secure as I would want it to be, but it does click into place. I am afraid that if seriously jostled, it will fall out and get lost. The cover stays closed through a powerful magnet. The keyboard powers up due to the connection points with the Tab S4 when it is being charged, so there is no separate bluetooth connection or need to charge the keyboard separately. As soon as the powered up S4 is placed into position on the keyboard, the tablet turns on from sleep mode. The keyboard is immediately recognized and jumped into DeX (desktop) mode. That can be turned on and off in the Settings control. I love the control bar/icons on the bottom (like Windows 10) so I can open up Microsoft programs. The keyboard is set up like my laptop, so it feels like I am working on my laptop. It does lack volume/media buttons and several quick commands (page up, down), but there are shortcuts. There is no mousepad, but I like using the stylus as I am used to a Note and a touchscreen.
I recommend watching some YouTube videos to see how to best use both the Tab S4 and the Book cover keyboard to maximize the efficiency and functionality. After all, it is no fun to have a device that you barely know how to use, now is it?

I am always afraid when I purchase electronic device that is a knockoff from China that won't work well out of the box. This is not the case. This fast charger is really a fast charger (provider you use the adaptor with the cable).

Buy the software outright
on December 20, 2017
Posted by: IndoorBikingRocks
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought Office Home and Business 2016 so I only had to pay for it once versus renewing a subscription every year or so. It was cheaper in the long run. I still get the customer service I need when issues arise, which happened several times. The first was because I had a short-term version of the software that had to be removed in order for my new software to work.

Upgrade for more storage
on March 15, 2017
Posted by: IndoorBikingRocks
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have gone through multiple iPods, each time purchasing a unit with more storage. I teach bike classes, so I have tons of songs and playlists. I have been resisting using my phone to store music. I have a biking app that I used for my classes which is incompatible/unstable on the iOS of the new iPod. It was a tough decision, but I purchased this iPod, anyway. I am so pleased that all my accessories (case, USB cord) as well as the Gorillaz tripod I use to mount the iPod on the bike still work with this new one. I played with the settings to make the font size larger, but it doesn't seem to make much of an impact.

SoundLink® Mini Bluetooth® speaker II delivers full sound with dramatically deeper lows than you'd expect from a speaker that fits in the palm of your hand. And because it's wireless and ultra-compact, it's easy to take Bose® sound anywhere. With the built-in speakerphone you can take calls out loud with clear sound. And voice prompts make Bluetooth pairing easy. The SoundLink® Mini II can play unplugged for hours and be charged from most USB power sources.

Superb gift for a music lover

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this as a gift for my husband who heard it at the Verizon store when we bought him a new phone. It runs $199 there, at Amazon and Best Buy, so I decided to buy it at Best Buy to get the points toward an awards certificate. It was simple to connect it wirelessly to his phone. He like the USB connector for his computer as well as the wall adapter. The sound was sweet. He hopes to use it to listen to Sirius XM at work, stream some videos and music from iTunes, etc. Not only can he use this at work, but in the car, at home, etc. He loves this birthday gift!

A very good product for smaller phones
on July 27, 2016
Posted by: IndoorBikingRocks
Verified Purchase:Yes
I read a lot of reviews prior to buying the product. All the comments I read were accurate. I drive a 2015 Prius and the location and layout of the vents in the car are not the greatest for this product. The vents are thicker and are horizontal versus vertical. I have a Samsung Note phone and it is big and heavy. Because of its size and weight, combined with the horizontal vents, the phone slips off. The main vent is so close to the dashboard, that the sun coming in makes the screen difficult to read when you have the GPS on. I can attach it to the vent on the left side of the steering wheel, but it is unnatural to look there and take my eye off the road for the purpose of navigating. In addition, the phone blocks the ventilation and takes the brunt of the cold or hot air flowing through. I am sure that is not good for the electronics. /an option is to close the vents. Still, I do like this product and think it is ideal for a smaller phone. I encourage you to scrutinize the layout of your vents prior to making the purchase or testing it out and considering returning it if the vents in your car are not favorably set up.

Wasn't the right one
on July 27, 2016
Posted by: IndoorBikingRocks
Verified Purchase:Yes
I hope people who consider buying this product read my review to understand the rationale for the low score. I understand that my rating skews the average, but I wasn't given the option to not rate it. It isn't rated low because it is of poor quality, but because it was not the right adapter for my Samsung QX410 laptop. Therefore, I would recommend it to someone whose laptop it does fit.

Easy to go cordless
on April 3, 2016
Posted by: IndoorBikingRocks
Verified Purchase:Yes
I teach indoor biking classes in my spare time and I have been accumulating tech accessories that make my job easier and provide a better experience for my participants. I initially used a 25' cord to connect my iPod Touch to the speaker. FYI, the speaker is in the back of the room, and the iPod is attached to the handlebars on my bike. The downside of that set up was making sure no one tripped over the wire or pulled the wire causing my iPod to become detached from its anchor (of which I was the worst offender). Plus, I was getting some static when the cable moved in certain directions. I had $10 in Best Buy reward certificates, so I went shopping to see if there was an alternative to the cord. I quickly found this and read that it works with iPods. Most people have iPhones, so this would work for them as well. I took it home and charged up the bluetooth receiver. I went to the gym where I work to test out the connection. Unfortunately, the speaker is older and did not have ports that worked with the cables provided. I went to Radio Shack and for $6.00, got a coupling that allowed me to connect to the speaker. The bluetooth receiver is easy to turn on and turn off (3-5 sec). It was incredible easy to pair with my iPod (6-7 sec). The sound is great, and works in the back of the room (which must be less than 33 feet away). Because this receiver pairs with 6 devices, I can get my money's worth and use it with other devices. With a 12 hour playback time, I won't need to recharge it after every use. I am very happy with this purchase and am looking to find other ways to use it.

Does it charge off of the tablet

According to this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qtlgYHGF8Y), it powers up when the Tablet S4 rests in the POGO connectors on the book cover keyboard.

can you get a charger for auto?

The speaker comes with a USB cable that hooks into the cradle. The other end can go into a generic car adapter. I bought fast charging car adapter on Amazon for cheap that it can plug into.
