Great record. Probably their best, which is saying a lot. The cover of the album creeps me out though.

One star for Pro 9.7
on April 13, 2016
Posted by: rushmore69
from Lexington
The speakers are piped forward through openings like the Targus case around the edges. The catch is the case has no smart cover function for Pro 9.7 users and the latch design to make up for no magnet placement is AWFUL and feels prone to breaking.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

No Smart Cover function for the Pro 9.7
on April 5, 2016

Okay case, but no Smart Cover function. Hopefully these do not sell well so Best Buy forces their vendors to not go the cheap route repurposing Air inventory. The case needs Smart Cover function.

No Smart Cover function for Pro 9.7
on April 1, 2016
Posted by: rushmore69
from Lexington
Having bad luck so far with full price case options. The Targus 3D is missing the speakers openings unlike the sleeve cover art shows, and this cover does not have Smart Cover function with the pro. I gave this three stars instead of two, since the sleeve does not say Smart Cover as a feature. Bad assumption on my part.
I guess I will go to the cheap case options on line, since the two higher price ones have missed the mark.

Case blocks the speakers on iPad Pro 9.7

This would be five stars if the speakers were not blocked. I bought this today and notice there are no openings for the speakers. Were it not for this profound oversight, the case would rock.
Why no openings for the four speakers??

Great device KILLED by lack of ex FAT file support
on December 2, 2015
Posted by: rushmore69
from Lexington
The hardware is great. Build, display, speakers, battery life, design. The problem is the device only works with FAT32 format. This means no cards or external OTG storage will work unless formatted in the old and uncommon FAT32 format. I have a Note 4, Moto X Pure Edition, Galaxy Tab S8, Dell 7140 and laptops. All support ex FAT and all of my micro sd cards, thumbdrives and portable hardrives are exFAT. To make matters worse, FAT32 does not support 4GB files or larger. Kind of silly to design a device intended as a video media hub and hi def display and no 4GB or larger file support.
If Lenovo update with ex FAT support I will buy it again. Returning it today.

Great tablet!

I replaced a Note 2014 32GB with the Tab S 32GB bronze, since wanted something smaller and lighter. White background content is a battery drainer.
Nice size compromise that is much lighter and better display than the Note 2014 (The 2014 had some light bleed on sides). Smooth performance and no games stutter. Battery life is very good if you avoid a lot of whites as much as possible. I use Firefox and the "Black on White Text" plug in. Works great and makes a HUGE difference for battery life when web browsing.
A lot of apps have black themes too, so makes about at least a 30% difference with battery life.
Wifi range is very good and sound is loud for such a thin device. My 128GB micro sd works fine in the device as well.
Comics, magazines and books look great on the device.
Worthy purchase!

Great device!
on April 22, 2015
Posted by: rushmore69

The immersive experience is great! Games are very fun in 3D and movies are like in a theater, minus the annoying people sometimes there too ;)
One review called it VHS quality resolution, but that is nowhere near accurate. VHS is 240/320 resolution and interlaced. VHS looks funky bad compared to Gear VR. The Note 4 display is 1440p, but the content is split into two for the lens and 3D design. The actual content is about 540p to 680p, which is FAR FAR better than VHS. If you use the theater "Void" mode, more of the image is shown, hence the 680p. The other theaters result in about 540p.
Void cinema mode has three main advantages:
1. More display used for the image
2. Use less battery than the VR theater modes
3. You can orientate the view to if laying down. The others you have to be in some form of sitting angle.

Great contrast, color, and image. Using DVID to HDMI due to my GTX650 not having a display port. The system automatically set to 1440p. My computer has blu ray and plays fine.
Unlike other reviews at other sites, I did not have to do any calibration since surprisingly looked nice as soon as turned o mm.

Two stars is too harsh. Should have been three.
December 3, 2015
Lenovo should at least offer the exFAT drivers as a pay option if they do not want to pay the per unit royalty to Microsoft to use exFAT.
Heck, charge $1 as an drive add-on option. That would more than cover the royalty. Charge $2. I would pay it to have the format and keep the device.

The issue is not that cards do not work, but they HAVE to be in FAT32 to work. It is an old format that is uncommon and file 4GB or larger do not work with it.

1 out of 5Blur at corners?
By gajee
Myself and a couple of friends bought three Epson 2045 projectors over the weekend. I am writing here to express my displeasure about a blurring issue that we are noticing in all three projectors.
We connected the projector to my DELL XPS laptop using a HDMI cable. We could immediately notice that the top left corner (about 15%) of the screen was blurry. Eyes become watery after watching the screen for a while.
We tried every possible troubleshooting suggestion available on Epson website and other AV forums. We tried everything possible from perfect placements on a table to dabbling with the Keystone and zoom settings. We even tried different sources, a different laptop, Apple TV Airplay, Miracasting a phone etc. Nothing helped.
We then moved on to testing the projectors by projecting some focus test pattern images available online. We could clearly make out the blur on all the focus test pattern images we projected.
We then checked the other projectors too, both those projectors were more or less having the same issue, at least one of the corners was blurry, one was at the same top left corner, but the other one had the issue at the top right corner and the bottom right corner.
We are wondering if this is a hardware defect, poor quality of lenses or something to do with vignetting and other projector maladies?
One of us called up Epson customer care, the tech support guy was of the opinion that this may be a defect and he is sending over a new one (in exchange.) For now only one of us called up. We would like to see if the new one is any different, if it is not, then we are planning to return all three.
I wish Epson could arrange for a technical support person who could troubleshoot this for us. The customer care person was more of a sales person who limited himself to asking some questions about the issue.

The box art on the sleeve shows the speaker cutouts, but there are none on the case. When I returned for another one, all of the stock at Best Buy was the same. Stock was pulled then. I loved the case design and build, so a shame this was missed by Targus production quality control. This case would be worth the money- if it had the speaker openings like the sleeve box are shows.
Hopefully Best Buy gets stock with the speaker openings. As is it really should be a one star. I was too nice with two.

Yep, the PDF spec on their site points this out, but the box art shows openings and the results did not seem enhanced. Also, there is apparently no sleep mode for the iPad Pro 9.7. A key feature missing from a $40 plus with tax case.
Still, like the overall design. Just not the results.

No smart cover function
April 3, 2016
The sound does not seem enhanced to me and the sleeve art shows the speaker openings. It also does not appear to not have smart cover function. Seems Targus is taking the cheap approach by repurposing Air 2 case stock and calling it Pro 9.7 even though critical function appears missing for the Pro 9.7. I agee though this could have been a great case.

Update to review
April 5, 2016
Targus was lazy with the cover art. The speakers do reflect forward, but the sound does not seem "enhanced" and more a gimmick to simplify production and sell this for the Air and Pro, The catch is the only tablet that has smart cover function is the Air and the Pro does not.
This seems a short sighted strategy that will mean a LOT of returns for the product by Pro owners. Who wants to pay over $40 for a case with no smart cover function? My guess is not too many.

1 out of 5Not for the iPad Pro 9.7
By TheTechGuy
This product is listed for the ipad pro 9.7, however, the case design is flawed in many ways. First, there are no speaker holes for the top or bottom, second, the thickness is not set right, when you set the ipad in the case, you can see about 1mm-2mm of spacing between the ipad and the case. I will be returning this item.

The space is there to pipe the sound forward to make up for the generic design for Air and Pro. No smart cover function kills it regardless.

Because this IS and Android device. Not best Buy's fault Lenovo wanted to use same naming for different products. The did the same with Yoga Pro 2 as well.

It appears to be, but the focus dial has more range on the version Best Buy sells. I have had both the launch version from Samsung and the BB one sold.
