Enjoy a better Bluetooth wireless experience with Bose SoundLink around- ear headphones II. Exclusive headphone technology delivers deep, immersive sound at any volume. SoundLink wireless Bluetooth headphones use the latest technology so you can easily connect to your mobile devices with seamless audio/video sync. And a dual microphone system rejects noise and wind, so you'll be heard loud and clear. Switch seamlessly between 2 Bluetooth devices, and stay connected to both. And intuitive touch controls give you simple command of your music and calls. The over ear headphone design features soft ear cushions and a contoured headband, they're lighter and more comfortable than other comparable wireless headphones so you can enjoy them all day long. Wear them almost anywhere, and experience uncompromised wireless performance. When you're done listening, you can fold them flat for storage in their compact matching case.

I have been looking to transition my existing headphones from a wired headphone to a wireless headphones. These headphones support both Bluetooth and NFC and fit my needs nicely. The headphones are comfortable, not to heavy or warm. The sound quality is great for me(I am no audiophile). One of my problems with the last headphones was that when the batteries died the headphones no longer worked. With these, when the battery dies, the wireless capabilities no longer function but they can still operate with the supplied wired connection. My only complaints (that prevented the 5-star review) is I feel they could get a little louder, maximum volume is lower than I would like, and they don't fold up small like many of the other headphones in the market even those offered by Bose.

I bought this washer when the one that came with my house died. We did a lot of research on consumer reports and this model was the highest rated washer at the time. We have been very pleased with it. Its weird to say but our regular clothes were definitely cleaner and brighter. The washing machine is quiet and efficient. It spins the load around a few times at the start and automatically decides how long the cycle should be. It has numerous load style settings to make sure that the clothes your washing get they're cleanest. Plus it is just a little bit bigger than a standard washing machine and that definitely helps get through the families wash faster. It really works as well as you would expect from the #1 washing machine on consumer reports. Very happy purchase.

This Samsung PN51F8500AFXZA 51" plasma 3D HDTV features vibrant 1080p resolution. To build a complete 3D home theater system, we recommend you purchase a 3D Blu-ray player, high-speed HDMI cable and an A/V receiver that is compatible with 3D products.

I just picked this TV up yesterday from Best Buy. In the store they had it sitting next to a Panasonic VT50 the (now former?) leader in plasma displays. You could immediately tell the picture quality on the 8500 was sharper. Colors pop, blacks are deep and dark, overall the picture quality really is amazing. You have to see it to believe it.
I found the overall design of the TV including the stand, stylish and of high quality materials. I tried out the voice controls and to my surprise they work very well. I was easily able to navigate to Netflix without issue. It has all the other apps that you would expect from a modern smart TV, netfilx, pandora, amazon video on demand, plus many more. Also I found the user interface to be much cleaner and and more performant than its panasonic competition.
My only complaint on the TV's is that the sound quality on these newer TV's seems to be sacrificed for thinness. I would mark it down for this except all TV's across brands of this style seem to be doing that so its certainly on par with its competition.
Overall I am very very pleased with TV and would recommend it to anybody who is serious about getting top notch picture quality.

I have played through Far Cry 3 and Bioshock Infinite and I didn't have any problems with the TV at all. It performed as you would expect a high end plasma to perform. Still highly recommend.
