This case is perfect for some and bad for others. Me I love it! I can easily remove it to show off my tablets look and it does two important things that I care about.
First, stands my tablet up for my viewing pleasure.
Second, it has two spots on the front to hold the SPEN since this tablet doesn't offer a shot for it.
Simply put if your looking for a tough case this isn't the one for you. If your like me and tend to use your devices naked more often than not. Your the customer this case is for. Hopefully now that you realize the pros and cons you can make an educated decision.

Depends on your Needs

Simple answer: It's a decent phone just a bit pricey.
Big answer: You start off with a great experience with a phone box that opens up like a book. It does make you feel like your getting a premium phone. When you pull the phone out and feel the premium build there is nothing else you can say expect wow! The first thing you notice though is the phone is just bigger than big. 5.7 inch unit with a little screen above that. It's not meant for the faint of heart. I think that's the first problem even for myself, which I have big hands, I felt like this was way too big. Than you notice some things within the OS which feel out of date. For example, pop up's to try to teach you every little thing. Makes me feel like I'm using my old S3 phone. The battery is good and bad as well. The good is replaceable so if you don't like cases on your phone that makes it easy to switch out for a new battery which is a dying trend. The bad is it's a smaller battery than other phones with a noticeable battery life difference. I found myself charging before finishing a full day which I feel like we should be at a point where a day of charge is the minimum. The camera is alright but in my own comparison I noticed other smartphones had better options out there. Other than that though the phone runs smooth and doesn't have noticeable glitches like other LG phone's I've used in the past so with that being said I'd still recommend it to someone who needs some of it's key features.

Thanks for reading my review...
Simple Answer: Yeah I recommend it, it is fast in every situation and it's so small and sleek that putting it in any room won't be a hassle.
Big Answer: Even when you start with the unboxing the units screams premium. For the price I agree that it should but even someone like me who came from the original NVidia Shield console it's better. Inside your going to find the main remote and game controller and a charger for the controller and some pamphlets. One question I think some of you might ask is how do you charge the main remote. You don't, you replace the battery inside with watch type batteries. Do I like this...No but small price to pay plus it doesn't need replacement until after a year. Or at least that's what the company says.
Plug and play type of experience and doing the updates you will naturally run into isn't too bad. One thing I wish came true was the Google Voice Assistant in this unit. Everything else though works quick and fast and the controller is much better for response.
Simply put again, everything you throw at this unit has got your back and the fact that you can use a usb storage to increase the internal storage.... Yes internal storage! That makes this an easy win!
You should buy this Nvidia Shield!

Make your home an internet haven with this versatile Linksys Velop wireless Wi-Fi system. Three identical tri-band dual-stream AC2200 routers, each equipped with a quad-core ARM Cortex-A7 processor, deliver lightning-fast internet. Equipped with Bluetooth 4.0/LE, this Linksys Velop wireless Wi-Fi system is simple to set up and pairs easily with computers, tablets and smart devices.
Posted by: AverageConsumer
Simple answer is yes. If it's power you need and distance galore than you can't go any better than this Velop system.
If you want a more in depth review it's a yes and no.
Starting out the opening box experience is nice premium quality and when you spend a lot on a unit like this you do expect some extra something. Box contents and directions are pretty straight forward plug and play almost and don't forget to download the app. I do like the app and I appreciate routers now giving you more control and insight to what it going on during your day to day but there is always room for improvement. To give example here when setting up the 3 Nodes, as they call them,
I found the hooking up unit one....easy
hooking up unit two......simple
hooking up unit three........it's been 10 minutes why???

The app just says that it could take a bit while your waiting and that's it. No back button option. No taking too long pop up. Nothing. I think adding a simple troubleshooting option here would be helpful.
As we continue after getting unit three up and testing the speed it was great. I could go anywhere in my house with full coverage. I was able to get mbps at right about what I pay for from my provider. As I start to bring us back home I would say if you need performance I would easily recommend this to you. When it comes to the setup process good not bad but like most router companies Linksys is really big about call if you need help so I'd recommend that with this unit.
Should you buy? If you got the need for a router of this magnitude than I don't think a little of a fun setup process is gonna stop you.
I hope my review helped you in some way and enjoy your blazing fast internet.

Simple Answer: Do I like it? Yes its surprisingly easy to use especially after seeing it out of the box.
Long Answer: Starting out the box was a lot going on. If your like me and tend to keep boxes, on this one you won't. It's a nice jenga project with so much cardboard which does leave a presentation of the brand cares about the product getting to you.
After you get it out with everything you get to your first worry. There is a lot going on and looks like it will be fun to clean. Surprisingly its much easier to clean and no matter what I blend those blades stay sharp. I had one moment in particular where I used dried chili pods when making tamales and my old blender would take forever because they are so dry and the ninja blender blends it super fast.
The only thing that I would say I'm glad and sad about with this unit is the base unit is HEAVY! You mix that with the suction cups at the bottom of the unit and once you find a place for it believe me you will never want to move it again.
I would say easily this is a blender you will buy once and never need again. You should buy this for yourself and as a Christmas gift to someone you know who would use it. Thanks for taking the time to read my review.

This Google Wi-Fi system eliminates uneven bandwidth usage among multiple devices, including cellphones and tablets, for an unimpeded connection that doesn't lag behind.
Posted by: AverageConsumer
Simply put first this is a great router and since Google gives you an option to buy one or multiple I recommend strongly following the directions they have on their website and in the pamphlets inside the box and choose what your house needs.
As we go deeper, we start with the opening experience which simply put is great. Nothing worse than when you spend $300 dollars and feel like you spent $80 which you do not feel here. You open up to the three routers and instructions. When looking at the units you find an Easter egg, or a new unknown benefit, which all three units are identical. The benefit here is that you can plug any into the model but they all have an option to plug out for physical connection. I found this to be quite useful in the moments when I'm in living room away from the traditional one router and was able to plug in directly to it and use it like a power line adapter. The instructions are so simple I would feel comfortable recommending all my friends and family even knowing how much of tech stuff they can grasp. Simply download the Google WIFI Application onto your phone or tablet follow the easy steps and done.
I have to admit I was not expecting to like this product or to keep it in my home. Reason, because I require a powerful router for work so internet connection is key. After having this for almost two weeks I can say with confidence that this is better than a unit designed to do much more and cost more. Initially I thought I was gonna get three okay.... routers but got three great routers with all the features I could ever need. Whether you have a big home or a tiny shack just buy a single or a triple pack for your needs.

Hey, thanks for checking my review hope it helps.
When I finally got my unit it started with a great first impression. Packaging was great and instructions were a lot though welcomed addition. This shaver/trimmer for it's price point tries to give you a lot for your dollar which includes 6 different trimmers ranging from Ears to head.
Following it's recommendations I began to shave to really try my unit out.. A little about me, I have on my neck an area that always comes out very red and bumpy and was curious to see how this shaver handled it. To my surprise very well shaving was pleasant and didn't seem to irritated my skin that much at all in comparison to every other shaver I've used. One of my dislikes was it seemed like I was going to a haircut place while using it. What I mean by this is I noticed that instead of just one or two fingers having a little hair covering them it made my whole hand and chest looked covered. Not a con just something I though interesting since I have to clean it up. As we move to other shavers more focused around simple trimming this is where they started to lose me. I felt like I'd have to go over it not once, not twice, not three times but ten to twenty times to make sure I got it good.
So in conclusion, if you looking for a shaver with some cool accessories that may or may not be the best but comes with a nice carrying pouch, this could be the shaver/trimmer for you. I personally think some of Phillips brand at the higher price point deserve a spot in your bathroom as your main unit and I found this one a welcomed edition for your trips where you wont have that fear of losing it.

Short Answer:
Linksys WRT AC3200 MU-MIMO Wi-Fi router is great for range and has a app you can download on your phone for easy control. I find it lacking when it comes to signal strength giving me in my experience only a third of what my internet provider supports.

Long Answer:
When I brought the Linksys WRT AC3200 MU-MIMO Wi-Fi router home with me my first impressions is quality and BIG! The box has a lot of subtle signs of quality when opening the box to the router which is about half of it's size. The box included the main router, four antenna connectors, a power brick, a cd containing documentation of the router and finally a quick setup guide which I found to be the most helpful.

Once you have connected everything properly and begin the setup is where you could have it be really easy or go difficult on you. I originally tried to setup the router with just my Tablet but as you can see from the pictures I've uploaded there was a point to where it would just load and load and load. To be fair it could have been my tablet or any other number of things but once I pulled out my phone and tried again it worked like a charm. Safe bet is have two devices around you for setup purposes. The on screen instructions are very easy only giving a Option A or Option B kind of feel making the experience very enjoyable. I also really enjoyed the connected app which allowed me to have control of my router and it's setup and understanding the app I found to be easy and I'd be surprised if you needed any help but if you do Linksys does have a number for you to call which I appreciated but did not use.
This is where the rating gets affected which is the routers overall performance. Stated above the overall range of unit is extremely strong. I found myself being able to drive 2-3 houses away still connected to my Home's WIFI. The overall speed was good not great as my home I pay for a speed of over 150gbs. You of course should not get that as you always lose a little in translation but on previous units getting 100gbs was not unheard of. With the Linksys WRT AC3200 MU-MIMO Wi-Fi router I noticed that I would get 100gbs if I was physically connected but WIFI would dip down to the 50 to 60's. For most this might be enough and an argument can be said that the strength or range of the unit being so strong is more important but for my needs speed will always be my go to.
Thank you for reading my review and I hope it helped you.

Use this unlocked Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge phone to stay in touch with friends and family. Its defense-grade KNOX platform provides enhanced security, and it's IP6s water-resistant for protection against spills. A 12-megapixel camera captures quality pictures, and the 3600 mAh battery provides fast charging. Store plenty of information with the expandable 200GB memory of this Samsung Galaxy phone.

I will start off to say I was a little hesitant in buying an unlocked phone instead of the carrier version but now I'm glad I did. Especially with AT&T phones now always having that Direct TV stuff on it and the 10+ apps for AT&T on them it really does ruin the experience. I was also worried about the 1 star review that says it doesn't work with AT&T but I had a Samsung Rep at the store tell me exactly what to do which was go to an AT&T store and have them program it to their network using the APN or something like that. The process took maybe 2 or 3 minutes and it worked immediately. Your gonna love this phone and especially if your like me and you plan to switch carrier in the future now I don't have to worry what carrier it us since it works on all of them.

I am a bigger wrist gentleman so when I read the wrist size I was already thinking I was gonna have to get something else. When I went into the store a samsung Rep said I should try it in before any decisions are made. Reluctantly, I out it on and immediately loved how comfortable it was especially since I wanted the sleep talking so that was big for me. I than feel in love with the design and the beautiful vibrant screen which you will not find on most fitness trackers. I asked the Samsung Rep what kind of battery life should I expect and he said 2-4 depending on usage which is fair but than finished it with and it charges from 0% to 100% in 45 minutes. I can't complain. It's a great looking device in every respect it does all the tracking types that I want plus it s band is so comfy and stretches to fit my needs. I say try it out. So far I'm a happy customer.

I know it's just a sound bar! But a 1500 dollar soundbar! Sounds great until u crank it up! Sub totally distorts! I would expect a lot more from Bose and especially for $1500!! For that amount u wud be better off getting a whole surround system with a larger more powerful sub!! Skip this one! Sorry Bose!

I have four count them four of these Bose 1 SR's and I would say its best feature is the fact you can crank it and it still is amazing and clarity is unmatched. For anyone who buys this sound bar you will not be disappointed it is hands down the best sound bar you can buy.

2 out of 5sounds just like LG soundbar, wall mount extra $50
By gadgetnerd1

Before buying this soundbar, I visited the BestBuy store and tried out about 10 different brands/models. I needed a soundbar with wireless subwoofer. I read reviews on different websites. Most wireless subwoofers interrupted the WiFi, or were really big. I picked Bose because it sounded excellent in store (other soundbars were connected using stereo cables or were non functional).
Setting it up was very easy. I did the audio calibration, which in my opinion did not make any difference to the audio quality. I watched some action scenes from the Bourne movies and Matrix but it didn't sound as great as it did in the store.
Then as I proceeded to do a wall mount, I realized that I had to buy a mount separately. Seriously Bose? You couldn't make keyholes in the base like every other soundbar has? I have ordered it online and waiting to get it delivered. It's like buying a $500 printer, taking it home and realizing that they did not include the $2 USB cable.

Listen to it yourself because this review is wrong
October 2, 2012
I agree with you that the fact you have to buy a 50 dollar mount is ridiculous but how dare you say that it's the same quality as that poorly constructed Lg sound-bar. It cracks at even mid range volume and it only has bass if you can get that subwoofer to pair which it tends to disconnect on its own. Everyone reading this go buy the Bose 1 SR I guarantee that you will not want to give it up and if you need more convincing think of this have you ever seen a open or used Bose for sale at a Best Buy? Never returned!

I returned my entire Samsung Radiant set and replaced them with one of every sonos speaker. The sonos sound MUCH better, dont distort like the samsungs did, the software works better. These samsung radiant speakers sound good at low volume, but once they go over about 60% they start to distort, the bass drops off and they sound hallow. With the sonos bridge, it creates its own network for the speakers that wont choke up my WiFi. I had problems with these speakers staying connected if i had more than two on at a time. There is no competing product like the sonos bridge/boost. These are samsungs second attempt at around the house speakers, and they are better than gen 1, but still need quite a bit of work all around. Overall, Sonos still owns the home speaker market.
One thing thats great about the R5 (that the rest of the Radiant series doesnt have) is that it can connect wirelessly to any newer Samsung tv. Use the TV Connect option in the samsung app on your phone to connect the two, and thats it. So if you ARENT interested in a whole home set up, but maybe just looking for a bass boost on your tv setup without breaking the bank, this is a good place to look.

I agree with the other commenter, I own 2 of the Samsung Radiant R7's in my living room and they are nothing short of breath taking. The audio is flawless at any volume but I came on the reviews for this one to see if was just as good or if I should just spend the money on more R7's. After reading this review I found it to be Sonos Advertisement-y to be a real person so I'm just going to pick one up tomorrow from Best Buy and I'll post my review. So I guess thanks for your review I'm sold!

So far I find it ok, having had its predecessor. I'll Pro/Con it below:
Pro:
-more comfortable than the Gear Fit 1
-much quicker responsiveness than its predecessor when pressing options
-the motion trigger to turn the watch face on seems accurate
-compatible and working with Nexus 6p (good sign that it works with other Android phones with Android 4.4 and after as they claim)
-quick setup but the navigation is harder to grasp than the Gear Fit 1 (at least to me)
-improved heart rate monitor allows intermittent testing (something tantamount to every hour)

-no obvious way to turn the screen off after it triggers on (you have to wait until it fades to off at one of the preset intervals)
-the watch faces look ugly and there aren't that many to choose from
-the stair counter isn't very accurate
-why have and claim mp3 player for this when all it is is really a small flash drive seeing as how it has no speaker unto itself or headphone jack to issue any music
-The initial declines in the battery make me doubt the battery life claims (it loses %s to fast)
-Notifications are not displayed well (very easy to accidentally block the app which sent the message when you in fact only wanted to close the notification or reply)

I'll conclude by saying the like the idea of this Gear Fit product as I did its predecessor but I'd pay more for better. I tried Moto 360 and others and didn't like them. I wish Samsung would stop restricting the better Gear products and allow them to work with non-Samsung phones. I guess I could just buy into Samsung's phone lines but I don't want to.

Agree to disagree
June 11, 2016
I agree with most if your review as I was an owner of the original Gear Fit myself but a couple of things come to mind. First, you can have the display go off by simply covering the screen. Lastly, the music player function might not be for you but is a welcomed feature in my book. If you go for a run and don't want to take your phone you can just take a pair of Bluetooth headphones and your gear. Other than that good review.

Enjoy your favorite music through these Sony Sports wireless noise-cancelling headphones. The in-ear design ensures a snug fit, so you can jog or walk without missing a beat, and the wireless format eliminates the need for cumbersome cords. The Ambient Sound Mode on these Sony Sports wireless noise-cancelling headphones keeps you alert to your environment.
Two questions: First, 6 hours battery life for listening time? Second, Can you turn off the noise canceling to increase battery life in-between charges?
Yes and with the ambient noise turned off which is just a little button on the headset you can get about 4 more hours of battery life in my experience.

How difference between this product and Samsung - Galaxy S7 edge 32GB (Unlocked) - Gold Platinum?? Both of all can work with At&t prepaid and internationally? I will leave US around 4 months. So i worry about it if i would pay almost $800
Gold one works only for GSM while the new silver one works with every carrier including Verizon and Sprint that use CDMA towers. For your needs both would work fine.
