Tweak them 1st in the audio manager
on February 25, 2015
Posted by: Pavelbure

At first I was a bit let down because I did not adjust it to my likings in the compunter's audio manager. After fine tuning it this speaker is excellent. So crisp with nice treble and not excessive bass like so many of the newer computer speakers. Its like those old style Panasonic Platinum boombox sound- clear, clear highs and mids and so good for vocals. I grabbed this on a whim because of the reviews here and amazon and they are all correct. Bravo Klipsch.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Sound is good, pic is good, should be a keeper.

At first I was let down by the sound until the speakers and subwoofer broker in with a few hours of use. Out of the box, give the sound system some time to break in.

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

By LYNLE
Running 4k video is hard for this machine.....the video pauses every few seconds...possibly the cache is to small? but if this is what you want the machine for then look elsewhere....in store demo performance was put down to poor internet connection etc etc

I too was let down by the 4k video response from this laptop. I no longer even try with 4k videos. I just now use it for the awesome display and view top notch photos.

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.

Thats the one bad thing about this phone, the battery performance is to me kind of terrible. I have to tune the screen to pretty much nothing brightness to make it thru the day.

Listen to music uninterrupted with these Sony stereo headphones. Adaptive noise cancellation features ensure you only hear the music and not ambient sounds, while a powerful battery delivers up to 20 hours of listening pleasure. These Sony stereo headphones are wireless so that you can listen in comfort to the high-resolution audio that delivers incredible bass and trebles.

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.

I thought these had tremendous good sound. However to just use the NC feature you have to bring your paired device with you ALL The time

By jiype

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.

I did not find the Sony comfortable at all, only good for 30-45 minutes than you felt it. I exchanged it for the Bose. I found the Sound to be great, maybe next time Sony.
