Introducing wireless AirPods. Just take them out and they're ready to use with all your Apple devices¹. Put them in your ears and they connect instantly. Speak into them and your voice sounds clear. Simplicity and technology, together like never before. The result is completely magical.

I've worn these a few times and love them. They are easy to sync and switch between multiple Apple devices. Best wireless headphones I've used to date.

Oops - they messed up - but made up

Verified Purchase:Yes
Something happened during the transaction and the gift packaging stayed in the processing state long after the item shipped...so it actually wasn't gift packaged. I called Best Buy and they not only refunded the gift money, they made it worth my while on top of that. While it didn't work out as I had hoped, it worked out. I'll definitely try it again next time I'm sending a gift.

I guess we can argue about the value, but my son has a 500G Xbox so he had to keep swapping games out since they didn't fit on the drive. This solves the problem with no hassles or difficult setup.

If you can get a deal on it - buy it!

We had the original version of the UE Roll, but the sound quality from this speaker has forced it into retirement. At full price, my advice is to pass, but if you can find it for a deal, its a great speaker.

Spacious / well built

Verified Purchase:Yes
OK - its tough to say that its well built considering I've only had it a month and have traveled with it only twice - but it holds my 15" Alienware laptop (no small feat) and has plenty of pockets and room for stuff, and the design seems really well thought out. It seems well built so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt.
Barely fits under the seat in front of me in coach - what more could I ask for!

Great value monitor!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I haven't tried playing games on this, but as a 4k monitor that replaced an HD one, its a great upgrade. Text is so clear, even at full resolution! I got this on a bit of a sale, and it was worth every penny. It may not have the greatest color spectrum, or brightness, or speed, or even the best user interface - but its way less than other monitors, and in many cases, most people won't know the difference!

Because it's made from a custom high-performance fluoroelastomer, the Sport Band is durable and strong, yet surprisingly soft. The smooth, dense material drapes elegantly across your wrist and feels comfortable next to your skin. An innovative pin-and-tuck closure ensures a clean fit. Available in a range of stylish colors.Bands fit 140-210mm wrists. Can be configured for either S/M or M/L length.

Great band - perhaps a little overpriced
on May 5, 2017
Posted by: SoCalOCJoe
from SoCal
Verified Purchase:Yes
Its a great band, and identical to the one that came with my watch originally other than the color...my original band has lasted almost 2 years of daily use with almost no degradation - but I wanted a change in color, and this one fit the bill. At $50 it seems a little overpriced to me, but perhaps if it lasts two years it won't seem so bad.

Great Blu-Ray Player

Posted by: SoCalOCJoe

Verified Purchase:Yes
I got a good deal post Xmas, and thought it was worth upgrading my PS3 that we use for Movies to a PS4....SO happy! The PS3 was obnoxiously loud at times, and the PS4 is so quiet that it really enhances the experience. I wished that it used universal remotes instead of the controllers, but overall this was a great purchase.
I'm not a huge gamer, but have played a few titles. I'm waiting until the VR is more readily available to give it a whirl.

I got a BF deal, and was skeptical this would make a difference in knocking down two dead spots in my house - I was WAY wrong. Not only did two units fix the dead spots, the system is faster overall then before. I'm still toying with putting the third one somewhere to see it makes it even better!

How large are the pods in comparison to the Apple earbuds you receive with Apple devices? I picked up a generic pair of pods tand they were HUGE and didn't fit well in my ears. Apple earbuds are a great size for me, are these comparable in size?

I haven't measured them, but I think they are the same size as the corded ones that come with the most recent devices.

Hi, I have a 17.3 inch lenovo laptop which i bought from bestbuy. will it fit in this samsonite backpack? my lenovo specs are "(inches) : 16.45" x 11.51" x 0.99". Please confirm so i can buy this.

I'm thinking NOT - my Alienware is similar in width but shorter (15.25) and just barely fits. I think yours will be too long to fit in the intended compartment.

Does the bag have a Case-Base stabilizing platform which keeps the bag standing upright?

No, it doesn't.
