Great Buy - Great Reliability
on February 27, 2016
Posted by: jlivar
Verified Purchase:Yes
The price point immediately grabbed my attention. I know that everyone always raves about Western Digital drives, but I've owned Seagate drives before and they have never disappointed me! In fact, they are all still in use. I bought this one to put in my safety deposit box. It holds scans of important papers and photos of a household inventory. I have a duplicate at home that I update as new items are purchased. Then every other month I swap them out. I keep myself covered this way.

Cable works fine but...
on February 13, 2016
Posted by: jlivar
Verified Purchase:Yes
The cable works fine. But I only gave it 4 stars because it does not come with a Velcro wrap on it so that it can always be kept coiled up when not in use. I'm tired of having cables get tangled up all because there was no Velcro wrap affixed to the cable for a quick wrap up. As I said, the cable works well. If you don't need to move the cable around, you'll be completely happy.

The best protection!
on February 13, 2016
Posted by: jlivar
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased the Apple Watch protection screen by Zagg knowing that it offers the best protection short of encasing the watch in a bulky box. And I'm so glad I did. Zagg also offers a lifetime guarantee and within days I had to make use of it, not because the Zagg protector failed me, but because, in an attempt to protect the edges of my Apple watch, I purchased a snap on bumper guard. But it didn't align well with the edges of the face and it rubbed and scaped on the Zagg protector corner. Very unsightly. It wasn't the Zagg protector's fault. In fact, I'm mightly lucky I had the protector on there to buffer the watch face from damage. Within a couple of days I had a free, brand new Zagg protector. I tossed the bumper guard out.

Wasn't sure about the bigger size
on January 23, 2016
Posted by: jlivar
Verified Purchase:Yes
So I finally took a gamble and got the iPhone 6 S Plus, trading in my original iPhone 5. And it didn't take me long to fall in love with the size. The extra real estate has me even considering now whether to sell my mini iPad, and I think I'll probably end up doing that.
The downside to this wonderful new size is finding a case that works for me. I am a professional woman and need to carry many access cards for entry into secured areas. I need a conservative business case that will hold 12 plus cards. The phone itself is too slippery for me to think I'll hold it and never drop it. So having a case is important, and one that will also hold my access cards is key. Every case I found was too bulky or too hip-hop looking unless you are willing to pay, literally, up into the hundreds of dollars. There are some really nice cases out there, but very pricey. So maybe I will sell the iPad mini to buy a nice case.

HDX - Better than Glass
on January 23, 2016
Posted by: jlivar
Verified Purchase:Yes
It isn't just me that thinks the HDX is better than Glass when it comes to drop protection. The Zag site spells this out very clearly on its website. The comparison chart shows the HDX is 4 TIMES the protection of the Glass screen protector. My salesman didn't believe it until I pulled out my phone and looked it up and showed him. Glass does offer better clarify. But the difference in clearness is nominal to me, and I really want the best protection from drops that I can get.

Better than glass!
on January 23, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
If you really look at the comparison chart on the Zagg site, it informs you that the HDX protector offers more protection than the glass version of the same protector. You do give up some clearity of detail but so little that it's more than a smart trade off for me. My chance of having an issue is more likely to occur from a drop than a scratch. Your odds may be different. I have 4 TIMES the protection on a drop with the HDX than with the glass protector. Sales people don't seem to know this. But you can check it out for yourself at Zagg.

Good but
on January 23, 2016
Posted by: jlivar
Verified Purchase:Yes
I really wanted this to work for me. It looks nice and isn't bulky. I'm a professional and carry my phone with me into a lot of management meetings. I don't need a teeny bopper or young mother case. The problem was that when put a card in each slot provided, the case would not stay neatly closed. I liked the case so much I even tried to see if I could find a nice looking elastic band to put around it to keep it securely closed. In the end I had to return it. But for anyone who doesn't need several ID or access cards to multiple secured rooms, this is probably perfect. For me, it needed a more secure closure. I think it would work well for most professional women and would recommend it.

Great size for arthritic hands
on January 23, 2016
Posted by: jlivar
Verified Purchase:Yes
My mom has arthritis and can't use a mouse for long periods of time. This mouse has been a life saver for her. Her physician told her to sit at a table with her hand resting on the table, palm down, with fingers slightly curved - and he said that was the shape she ideally wants her hand to be in on a mouse. This mouse is perfect for that! She loves this mouse and has none of the problems her friends with arthritis have. The fact that it comes with a portable keyboard makes it even better.

We have a situation where there is no camera allowed. Can the camera be disabled?

I'm sure there is a way, technically, to disable the camera. But any person or place that restricts the environment to 'no camera' status is not going to permit any device that has a physical camera simply because a disabled camera could be readily and discretely enabled once on the premises. Every place I've been at which does not allow cameras have required cell phones, tablets, notebook computers, and actual cameras be left in vehicles, checked into a locker - or better yet, not brought along at all.
