I previously bought the Sony MDR-1000X. Those had awesome sound and tremendous features like personalized NC. Hit a button and it will figure out if you are wearing glasses and will up the NC to compensate for the gap with the glasses. It was kind of uncomfortable for me, I had to take them on and off due to pressure. The Bose QC35 has none of this uncomfortable feelings, I can wear all day without feeling like my head is clamped ever. The Sonys were heavy feeling, these Bose light feeling. If I were a new buyer I would really figure out how sensitive you are to a headphone being on your head for a long period. If you have no issues get the Sony, better sound and NC but a little bit. If you value extreme comfort get the Bose. I returned the Sony and Got the Bose.

Everything is true about the sound. Its is extremely wide sounding with a laid back rich kind of bass. The bass is not heavy like Beats at all. The open back helps to create a big sound stage. The only thing I don't like are the cushions. Harsher feeling that I thought it was going to be.
Well worth the sale price, no other wired headphone can touch the price.

Light on Bass, Big on Natural Sound. Sounds a bit like the Bose QC35 but a not quite as good. Of course its a lot cheaper than the Bose. These are for Jazz, vocals and not the best for hip hop. Has that laid back JBL sound for the grown up crowd. The soundstage is decent for closed backs headphones.

Its a S2 but with the new S3 specs
on June 24, 2016
Posted by: Pavelbure
from New Mexico. ABQ
If you buy the S2 8.0 from Best Buy check the specs on the back of the box. If its says " 1.8 GHz + 1.4 GHz Core Processor" it is really just a 2016 S3 that is coming out in July. I just got one and did a search and mine has the specs and operating system of the S3 which runs Android 6.0. The S2 should be running Android 5.0. I think Samsung just branded these remaing S2 with S3 parts and OS system.

I had a 4.5 phone, kind of small. Looking to upgrade without breaking the bank. Saw the 100-200 dollars ones. Not bad, nothing to write home about. Than saw the Moto X Pure, 1st test brightness and screen. Its very impressive. At home there is no need to set it past half bright. This phone can challenge most tablets for a bright and vivid screen. Its why I got it really, ideal for multimedia. I see it as good as any phone 200-250 dollars more. The speakers are loud, you can go for a walk and just turn it up and no need for headphones. Its a pleasure to own this, I consider it a tiny tablet.

Had this for about 5 months now. I really enjoy the screen, its about as good or better than the 5k Apple Imac in some instances. The screen is the best for viewing HD photos, and anything that requires color detail.
As for the negatives- speakers are terrible. Dell put them on the bottom of the laptop for no reason making them so bad. Speed is decent, not great for a i7 processor.
I would suggest to buy this for the screen ONLY.

Got it on sale for 89 bucks. Liked that it has Canada Maps at a cheaper price than the others. However due to its small 4.3 screen I can only recommend this for the occasional light GPS user. I am pretty nearsighted and its just a bit too small in screen size for me but I don't want to spend 100-150 or more for a bigger screen that has a Canada map built in. So I just drive a little slower and just pay more attention to the voice prompts.

Its got good and not so good.

I am a big fan of Samsung latest's tablets. I have the Pro 12.2 and 8.4 so I can offer a fair comparison between the S line and Pro line. For regular photo viewing and web surfing the Pro tablets are better, the pics are much more real life like without the sometimes false colors in the Amoled screen. I now use the basic screen with my Tab S. The colors just seems more dull overall in the Tab Series for web surfing.
Now the Tab Wins when watching 4k vides on youtube. Its really pops and so vivid in either amoled or basic mode. It very much like being there with 4k videos. However thats my only true liking for the 10.5 S. Other than that I like my Pro better for everything else.
Oh I forget, the slim design and low weight is great.
So take your pick what you like.

Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro Tablet: You can easily watch movies and shows on the go using the Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro, which features an 8.4" touch screen that's large enough to ensure clear media viewing and small enough to facilitate transport. The 16GB storage offers room to house pictures, videos, music and other important files. Plus, you can connect to the Web to check your e-mail and access social media.

How can this not be snapped up faster? Go to the BB store and check out the other tablets close to 199.99. They are so far under the current deal out for the Tab Pro 8.4 its not even in the same ballpark. I think the Super Clear LCD screen is a bit nicer than the Amoled screen often. Clearer, Sharper, in most sites and some videos. The other time I like Amoled is watching 4k videos, but I will say in Amoled the color green is way too rich.
If you are looking for top picture quality get the Pro Series. They are all around nicer viewing image than the S.

Best screen in almost any cpu or laptop
on June 8, 2015
Posted by: Pavelbure
I only really purchased this for viewing photos or videos online. For 1k, its just not that much more than other laptops with lower resolution screens. I was at first leery of the keyboard as its smaller but after about 15 mins or so I got comfortable with it. The screen is the best feature, so bright, crisp, makes photos and images look better than real life. As for 4k, my internet at home is rather slow and can't really take advantage of this feature but at least I think I am future proofed this way by having 4k ready.
In the store this laptop will look less impressive as its really kind of abused, people with dirty hands touch it daily and pick it up and let it down without much care. Once you open yours at home its really more impressive than store ones.

By HighlyUnsatisfied
13 days into owning this machine, the screen failed. I took it in and was told I needed a new computer. 4 weeks after that, the monitor did not turn on, and so I gently shook the computer and lo and behold it did. I did that several times until I could get back to Best Buy. By that time the keyboard had stopped working all the time. When I called BB and asked what was going on with this machine they said "oh, it's a known error". Interestingly, marketers can find me day and night to sell me stuff I don't want, and YET if there's a bug with an upgrade, they can not POSSIBLY get in touch with me.

3 out of 5Looks like a Dream, Performs not as Well
By Debanjan
If you are buying this for regular use (basic programs, MS Office, movies), it will serve your purpose - however you could get along with a medium end display.
If you are buying it only for the 4K Ultra HD display, be warned - though the display is stunning, however:
1) The sound is somewhat weak - I can barely watch a movie with the volume turned on max, because my AC (admittedly moderately noisy) drowns it out. Also cant handle bass tones too well, tends to break up
2) Not the laptop's fault, but I found most games today are not optimized to display resolutions above 1920x1080. Trying to run a game with your desktop resolution set at 4K HD, will lead to a tiny game display. The only way to correct this is to set your desktop to 1920x1080 or lower. Which defeats the whole point
(Tested on Alien Isolation, Arkham Asylum, Bioshock Infinite, Far Cry 3, Tomb Raider 2014)
3) The Graphics card is not meant to handle most game settings over Medium or at best High. No hope for maxing out settings.
Pros:
a) Really lightweight for its configurations
b) The keyboard is just the right size, there is enough room to rest your wrists on the laptop body while typing (felt weird at first but you get used to it quick)
c) Backlit keyboard is very convenient

Cons:
a) The 12 GB RAM doesn't show any observable performance improvement over my 3 year old Vaio with 8 GB RAM (both Intel i5). Youtube analytics sites still hang on Firefox. The screen is pretty responsive though.
b) 4K resolution needs more juice before it gets mainstream

The speed of this laptop is subpar. I did a review on this weeks ago and now think the cpu is a bit slow versus even my Samsung tablets. The chip is dual core, does not match with the great 4k display

Bought to be able to read at night and wasn't sorry. This is a light weight tablet that won't crack your skull if you just happen to doze off with it held above your head. Powerful to do everything your phone could do. Slim and stylish. A good choice to make, if a tablet is wanted.

1 out of 5Overheating!!!!!
By mediaman
I bought this tablet yesterday and after charging it used it to download some apps. It was hot so I let it cool down. All I did was go on Facebook and it was too hot to even touch. This heat comes from the upper right area of the tablet on the backside. I went back to Best Buy and exchanged it hoping it was just mine. The new one did the exact same thing. Taking it back. This is the newer model which has a faster processor than the S2 8.0 710. Not sure if that is the problem but I cannot even hold it, it gets too hot.

4 out of 5Good Phone, But...
By RDDG
Nice specs. Lots of good features. Excellent build quality. Fast charging. The only real issue I have with the phone is that the battery life is pretty poor. Turning down the screen brightness will help, but it may be a deal breaker for some. Would have been a perfect phone, especially at the price if it improved the battery and had a fingerprint scanner, but overall still an excellent deal.

3 out of 5Comfortable, Sounds Great, Difficult to Control
By kleu
The Sony MDR-1000X headset is a very good headset, worthy of competing with Bose's QC35. It sounds great, can be worn comfortably for hours (even when wearing glasses), and stows neatly in its included carry case. Build quality is above average.
Unfortunately, Sony's attention to the controls is lacking. While the touchpad on the right earcup is nifty, and provides access to key features (Quick Attention, especially), it can be frustrating to use regularly, especially for large changes. Additionally, managing devices/pairing is a bear, with 95% of the process relying on the media device. To switch devices, you must physically interact with the intended device, a far cry from the easy toggle and headset management app provided by Bose. Sony has also hard-coded the headset's device name, making it difficult to determine which specific Sony headset is the intended device to be paired without isolating it.
Also of note is the poor battery indicators. The only indicator given for non-iOS devices is on the headset itself. No audio warning is given, save for the prompt immediately before shutoff. This is immensely frustrating, especially since the headset cannot be used while charging.
Overall, I would probably recommend/buy again. The majority of my issues could potentially be fixed, if Sony decides to develop a new app and/or issue software/firmware updates. However, if you intend to use noise cancelling (ANC) all the time, I would strongly recommend you consider the Bose QC35 as well.

For the price there are better headphones. Don't get me wrong these are great in terms of sound but not really comfortable. I felt so much pressure on my ears after an hour of using it. It's noise canceling is pretty good as well. I ended up returning it because it wasn't comfortable to wear. I've heard the bose ones are better in that respect.
