I've always preferred Windows Phones and this is the best I've ever owned. A huge, sharp screen, expandable memory and a good phone overall. $250 when compared to $800+ is an insane bargain.

If you're a fan of Madden and looking to make the jump to next gen this a great way to start. The 1TB of storage is plenty for your favorite games and the value of Madden 16 and EA Access is the best way I can think of to start a gaming collection! EA Access alone offers about $500 worth of games with more to come for only $30 a year.

Bad Rep

I just picked up this phone and I absolutely love it. The Fire Phone had its share of issues upon release but since then it's received updates that have handled the battery life and heat issues. It has a beautiful screen and i like the gesture features for bringing up info and revealing features. Hands-free scrolling is especially nice. A 64GB phone for $100 is ridiculous and there are plenty of apps. It is one of the nicest phones I've ever owned.

I loved my Xbox One but traded it in when I saw this bundle with the bigger HDD. I love the look of the console and the controller and think the new Call of Duty looks amazing. It's all up to your taste, of course.

What's great about it: System, design, value and included game
What's not so great: No Kinect (depends on your POV, though)

I loved this movie! The introduction of Smaug is amazing and the action is frenetic and fun. The new characters are cool and everything is beautiful from the effects down to the makeup, sets and locations. It leaves you at the end wanting the final film in the Hobbit trilogy right this instant!

Microsoft Surface Tablet: Do more on the go with the productivity of a laptop in the compact size of a tablet. Create documents with Microsoft Office RT, sync files between Windows devices and video chat with friends and family. The built-in kickstand props up your tablet at just the right angle for easy viewing.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I wanted this tablet when it was released, but was a little low on cash. As soon as it dropped to $350 I picked it up immediately and its the best tablet I've ever had. Plain and simple, its beautiful and fun to use. I couldn't recommend it enough!

Experience the lifelike thrill of virtual reality with the Oculus Rift. The remote, OLED display and IR LED sensor help you navigate through virtual worlds, while rotational and positional tracking let you play exclusive games like Lucky's Tale. The clear, high resolution on the Oculus Rift takes you even closer to reality.

And the Truth is usually somewhere in the middle
By JaredNesconset
OK I have both Rift and Vive:
Bullet points:
-VIVE is brighter
-Rift is a little easier on the eyes, a lot more comfortable to wear, and lighter
- Rift ghosting (""God Rays"") are significantly worse than Vive
-Rift muted brightness makes it appear that there is less Screen Door but it is false. Their actual optics are almost identical.
-Vive has slightly larger Field of View
-Full Room with VIVE and motion controllers are down right fun
So Far:
Vive wins but I like the rift for seated experiences and now you can up the pixel density with the debug tool on the rift that is a plus.
Oculus touch coming in september will should narrow the margin.
Both good products... a preference indeed. Oh btw VIVE has STEAM behind them which is a definite plus.
Hope this helped.

Excellent review!
June 11, 2016
Thanks for the great review. The fact that Oculus is simply unavailable and Vive is now shipping within a few days has made a tough decision nearly a no-brainer. Not to mention that it's basically even in most reviews I've read.

Microsoft Surface 3 Tablet: Multitasking is easy with this functional tablet, which features Windows 10 and an integrated kickstand for simple, intuitive navigation. Stay productive with preloaded apps, and record and share memories with the front and rear cameras.
 

Do I have to buy a keyboard?

Does it come with one, no. Is it absolutely necessary, no. It depends on what you'll be doing with it. You may even be happier using the Surface 3 Pen.

iPhone 6 isn't just bigger — it's better in every way. Larger yet thinner. More powerful, yet power efficient. It's a new generation of iPhone.
 

Can you get $150 gift card if you buy this online?

I noticed that it says"Receive a FREE $150 Best Buy Gift Card when you purchase any Verizon Smartphone with a NEW 2-year or Edge activation." And I googled a little about it, and some said you have to go to bestbuy mobile to get this offer. I was just wondering if you can get the $150 gift card if you buy this online as well.
I would call your local Best Buy to ensure that this is the case. It's too easy to get burned when all it takes are a few questions to the right people.
