broke down within a month, impossible to fix

If I wrote this review within the first few weeks i had this, then it would be 5 stars all the way, but this screen quickly broke down. suddenly it would only show a white screen, and even if i didn't have the SD card into my Pi and just power, it would still show a white screen. I researched it and it is a common problem with this screen and the only solutions to fix it are very very complicated and some of them required you to edit files that i found didn't even exist, even after reinstalling the OS. Dont buy, it breaks down after a month, also the case is VERY cheap. a few minutes after i got it and treated it with care, one of its parts simply snapped, i just taped it back together and thought "meh", then when the screen stopped working and i decided to use the case i got with CanaKit, i had to take the case off, from it it snapped even easier than before. over all this isn't worth the money, im currently looking at one that just has an HDMI plug in the side and the same size as this one, that way i can just plug it in via HDMI and it just works, no need for drivers or anything. really don't buy this, i wasted my money, don't waste yours. - Nikolas, Age 13

After less than a month of gentle use (handled by only 2 people) the on/off switch broke.  The mechanism is in the sealed part of the clock, and is unreachable, so what is probably easily repaired becomes impossible.  Otherwise, it's just what I wanted

Broke within a month at cable and plastic USB connection.  Replaced it with an Apple firewire cable.

Purchased this on June 10th 2015,  it worked great until early November. Now, I can't access the UI, and it doesn't function properly anymore. It's basically in a perpetual state of waiting, waiting, waiting, despite multiple resets and the like. Customer care is only 90 days, so I'm stuck with a piece of garbage, which is totally unacceptable, given the cost.

Purchased this in January, 1 month later screen completely went nuts and began ghosting. Months later, same issue, customer service COMPLETELY UNHELPFUL, and they refuse to replace it. My biggest regret is that I have to give it 1 star - I would prefer to give it 0. Stay away from Dell.

Purchased the phone about a month and a half ago. Picked it up off my desk a week ago to find the screen flickering on and off rapidly, so much so that the phone was unusable. Googled the problem to find that it's a common problem with samsung phones, and that there are multiple things you can try to fix it. Gave them all a try, nothing worked. Did a factory reset on the phone as a last ditch effort in hopes of it being a software rather than hardware problem. Problem still persisted. Contacted samsung support, and was told to send the phone in and if it wasn't repairable, it would be replaced. Just got the package back in the mail, opened the box and turned on the phone to find the problem persisted. Inside was a note saying "We have performed a thorough examination of your device, and it has been determined that the unit is beyond economical repair. The un-repaired device has been returned to you".

By far the most money I have ever spent on a strobing paper weight.

This monitor worked great for the first five months, then the connector where the cord plugs into to the monitor came loose and I cannot get it to work anymore. I have been reading some of the other reviews and this appears to be a common problem with these monitors. This is something that should be corrected before they sale any more units. I was pleased with the color and the clarity, and the portability and ease of use, but now it is unusable.

I do not recommend this monitor.

September 8, 2017 followup: After a huge hassle of contacting the manufacturer (it wasn't easy), they allowed me to return the monitor for repair. It cost me about $30 to return. After several weeks, I received it back properly working. After  a few more months, the connection at the monitor came loose again to the point that the monitor does not work unless I jiggle the cord and hold it just so, and even that doesn't work most of the time. I am looking for another monitor that I can rely on.

Like so many other 1 star reviews, mine started with me loving this item.  But, just after the return window closed, I started having the same issues so many other reviewers experienced, except for the USB port breaking.  At least mine stayed intact.  After a month, the device started refusing to connect, or stay connected, to both of myAndroid devices.  It also started chattering after 40 minutes or so of continuous use.

Finally, after restarting it and one of my Android devices about a hundred times to convince it to connect, I finally threw the POS across the room and experienced another common complaint in reviews.  The ear pieces are attached with a teeny tiny minute quantity of plastic, instead of a snap fit so they can be reattached if they come off like every other headphones.  When mine finally broke, I finally had the excuse I so badly wanted to just chuck the piece of garbage in the garbage where it belonged.

I am highly disappointed with this purchase.  In less than one month, it has completely stopped working.  I was using it mainly as a clock, so I cannot speak to its capabilities as a Bluetooth speaker.  I liked its alarm options and the soft light it emitted at night.  Unfortunately, it is now acting like it is unplugged and has no backup battery.  Believe me, it is plugged in and the backup battery is in place.  Technically, it would not need the battery considering it is plugged into a socket (and yes, the socket works; I checked that as well).  Still, the unit is completely dead.  The screen is completely black, and the light does not turn on at all.  Upon pushing some of the clock-setting buttons, I hear a slight beep.  Even if it is accepting power somehow, a beep means nothing since the screen remains black.  I am actually really sad because I loved this thing until, well, I no longer could..

Headphone jacks breaks down and makes it extremely difficult to get a good sound from both earphones. Happened within a month, junk.

Company is not responsive.

Broke one month after six month warranty expired.  Sorry you are S**t out of luck.

Poorly designed power connector position creates too much stress.  Connector breaks due to stress cracking.

Sadly, my high hopes for this wonder machine were dashed soon after purchase. Worse, I purchased two units. One for my wife and one for me. I knew mine was bad, but didn't know her's was too until my right to return expired. The issues: Random disconnects of the entire dock from my computer--which includes 3 hard drives and a display. May not seem too big of a deal, and I dealt with it for a while, but when the disconnects numbered in the dozens per day, enough was enough. I spoke to OWC a couple of times and they finally RMA'd one unit, but the replacement had the exact same issue. Totally frustrated and needing to get real work done, I shelved the dock for 2 months. I dug it off the shelf this week to give it one more go, but still nothing. Totally random and frequent disconnects make this unit unuseable--especially when working on files located on connected hard drives! Called OWC support again to see if there was a fix or something that they can do. To my surprise, they told me that the issue is one that they are aware of and that they are working on a fix. Likely firmware they said. Unfortunately, they have no idea when and if they will find a fix. They told me to sit tight and they would let me know when a fix is available. Until then, I have $500 worth of boat anchors. Never again will I buy an OWC product. Friendly people, but useless products and support policies.
