I always purchase the OtterBox Defender series for all of my phones. I'm not worried about dropping it or it falling. Pair it with a tempered glass screen protector and have peace of mind.

Decent small SSD drive

This is a decent little SSD drive. I had some issues at first because I didn't know to set in the BIOS the drive type to AHCI from IDE or RAID, but after some google searching, it worked out.

The USB 2.0 VGA Display Adapter acts as an external graphics card for your Mac or PC. It allows you to add an additional VGA display through your USB 2.0 port. There’s no need to open your computer to add an expensive graphics card. With this adapter, you simply load the drivers, plug the adapter into the USB port, plug the VGA monitor cable into the adapter and you are ready to go. The Display Adapter supports three viewing modes. Primary Mode allows you to have individual applications open on each monitor, vastly improving productivity. Extended Mode allows you to extend your desktop across multiple displays, which can be great for spreadsheets. Mirroring Mode is used to clone one screen onto another, which can be ideal for presentations.

Great adapter for a projector

I bought this because my ultrabook only had an HDMI out, and no VGA. The projector I had to use to teach a class only had a VGA input on it (older). This was a quick fix and performed flawlessly.

This microSD card is great for an Android mobile phone or other portable device that accepts MicroSD. It is reliable and as fast as any other MicroSD card I have used in my devices. Best Buy had it on sale which made the price right as well.

My dad specifically wanted this case for Christmas to go with the Bose Bluetooth speaker that he was getting for Christmas. The speaker fits really well in the case since it was designed for it. No surprise there. The quality of the case is excellent and will protect the Bose speaker for its lifespan.

Great component speakers without spending a fortun
on August 23, 2014
Posted by: PewterFormula
from Rockwall County, TX
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought these to put in my GMC Sierra since the factory speakers were blown. The speakers were a major improvement over the stock speakers when connected to the factory HU. I replaced the HU with a good Kenwood putting out 22w RMS and they sounded even better still. I do intend on putting a Kenwood amp on them, which from what I've read makes them really come alive.
Many reviews bash the bass response on these and other 6.5" component speakers. Folks, keep in mine these are not intended to be subwoofers nor do they claim to be. If you want low bass, buy a sub and amp. But for midrange and mid-low frequencies they do sound good. Definitely no regrets on this purchase.

Awesome phone
on August 23, 2014
Posted by: PewterFormula
from Rockwall County, TX
Age:25-34
Phone size:Just right
Verified Purchase:Yes
My original plan was to order a Sony Xperia Z2, but instead decided to get this phone when it came out in July. This phone is amazing. The screen is extremely clear and the pictures and video are very sharp. I can not rave enough about how great the 2560x1440 (UHD) screen is.
Part of me wishes the phone supported MHL as the video output because it is more widely accepted. Instead, it uses SlimPort which is similar and in my opinion better. Slimport does not require an additional power source to work, and supports resolutions up to 4k.
Storage is 16g which is pretty standard for cell phones, and as with most Androids, it has a slot for a MicroSD card for storage. That is something the iPhone does not support.
The phone can awake by a series of knock codes, or if you choose not to set a security feature, you can just tap the screen twice for the phone to wake up. That is a whole lot more convenient than fumbling around for a power button.
This phone is phenomenal, and I take every chance to show it off to friends and family that is looking for a new phone. Do get a case for it though, and if you're interested in purchasing it outright like I did, BestBuy will match Amazon's price.

What's not so great: uses SlimPort instead of MHL for video out.

Watch live high-definition TV shows from mobile devices with this SiliconDust HDHomeRun CONNECT DUO TV tuner. It lets you stream over-the-air programs via a Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection, saving you the cost of extra cable subscriptions. Record broadcast shows with this SiliconDust HDHomeRun CONNECT DUO TV tuner by using its DVR service.
 

Can someone very simply explain how to connect this to two tv's in different rooms? Each has it's own indoor antenna. I can connect one to the Home Run tuner because it's sitting next to it and the router. But what about the tv in the other room?

To effectively use this, you need devices at each TV that are attached to your network. Devices include AndroidTV boxes, FireTV, or AppleTV. I have AndroidTV boxes at each TV, and the picture is crystal clear on each channel. Best Buy sells the Nvidea ShieldTV which is awesome from a hardware perspective, and I have one, but I've had just as good luck or better with the Xaiomi Mi Box S from Walmart, at about 1/3 of the price. I have a ShieldTV and four of the Mix Box S's in my house.

do i really need an amplifier to get good sound?

I have these same DXi-6501 speakers in my pickup. They sound good mated to a Kenwood receiver putting out 22w RMS. They will come alive when mated to an amplifier putting out much more RMS power. Don't look at peak power numbers as it's like running your car at 6k RPM all the time. Look at RMS power numbers because that is what is "usable".
