Blazing fast

Verified Purchase:Yes
Great SSD drive from Samsung as always. Not hitting advertised speeds, but I will work a bit more towards seeing why before blaming the drive. Using with a Asus Maximus X Hero motherboard and a 8086K running at 5.1GHZ (4.9GHZ cache ratio). It is the latest and the greatest m.2 drive other than the 970 Pro. My benchmark results were around 2700MB/sec which is obviously still plenty fast. Would definitely recommend and was happy with the price I got it for from BestBuy.

Games play better on Xbox One X. With 40% more power than any other console, experience immersive true 4K gaming. Blockbuster titles look great, run smoothly, and load quickly, and you can bring all your Xbox One games and accessories with you.

Runs games noticeably better than my Day one edition Xbox One. Has a 1TB hard drive which allows for a pretty decent number of games and apps to be installed. 4K output so everything looks great including blu-rays.

Bought this for my mom to upgrade from her dated Ipad. She noticed a big difference in speed and likes the thinner build of the new models.

Good small TV
on June 20, 2018
Posted by: Alex
from Charlotte, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
Most TV sets in this size are 720P and this one offers 1080P. Has several useful built in apps and is running a version of Chromecast for streaming. Speakers absolutely suck, no bass, but it is a $139 24" television so you can really only expect so much. Works well in my Kitchen.

Great ultraportable
on June 20, 2018
Posted by: Alex
from Charlotte, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a fantastic little 2-in-1 ultraportable laptop at a questionably cheap price. Battery life has proven to be pretty good, but have not tested how much video you could watch non-stop on a full charge. Very thin and light. Keyboard feels good, and the trackpad works well. Only 2 USB-C (non-thunderbolt) ports but it does include a small hub with a HDMI port, a USB-C port that is capable of pass-through charging, and USB-A port. Overall a great laptop for the price.

Fantastic cell phone
on September 14, 2017
Posted by: Alex
from Charlotte, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
Been very pleased with my new Note 8 so far. Battery life is much improved over the previous Note 5, I did not have an opportunity to use the Note 7. When the Note 7 got recalled, I intended on waiting for the Note 8 and it has not disappointed. Even using the phone more frequently with more battery intense apps the battery life itself has been great. The phone feels high quality when held in your hand, and is more narrow than my Note 5 making it easier to hold. While the finger print scanner is a bit of a stretch to reach it is still functional and my preferred security method for unlocking the phone. Was very excited to see they added expandable memory which was one gripe I had about my Note 5. Wont be looking for a new phone anytime soon, enjoying the Note 8.

Much better than original wireless chargers
on September 14, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
Ordered this to use with my new Note 8 phone and has worked well even with the S View Folio case installed on the phone. The only confusing thing is the charger itself is black, but the wall plug and USB cable is white. Minor detail, but didn't really understand why it was packaged like that. Does not have issues with battery alignment resulting in not charging the phone like the original flat chargers did with my Note 5.

Been using it in my GoPro Hero 5 and it does well with either 1080P or 4K video. Can record 4hr of 4K video, 8hr of 1080P video, or take something like 40,000 photos. No complaints.

Is this SSD compatible with a 2015 15” Retina MacBook Pro?

Google Other World Computing. Apple manages to make everything "proprietary" (even though there is already a standard present) which costs you more money. They do offer compatible upgrades although this 970 Evo is not one of them because Apple moved a few pins around.

will it connect to a single external monitor so I don't have to look at the laptop screen? If so, which laptop port will send out to the monitor?

The laptop includes a small hub that offers a HDMI output. So yes, you can connect to an external monitor and will not need to purchase anything additional.
