Huawei kind of let me down. The phone's great and all that with it's top notch specs, but I was left disappointed when I found out all they did was recycling the old, P9 design. That's one of the reasons I wasn't a huge fan of S7.

I wasn't too impressed with the S7 but this S7edge is beginning to grow on me. I still like my Pixel more though.

Ooh okay, I get where you are coming from. I think I recall you saying that you would only get a 16gb SE and not use it much because of storage.

32gb is perfect for me, actually 16gb is fine too but I don't mind having storage that would take forever for me to fill up (if ever).

16 is only acceptable with an SD card slot, to me at least.

Agreed, mainly to store at least a few hours of music and a bunch of pictures if the camera is halfway decent.

My leg is killing me. It's quite sore. Woke up at 3AM to take some Tylenol. Now I can't fall asleep.

I know what it's like, trust me. I have a bad knees that start hurting after an hour or two of walking. Wish you fast recovery.

It's one of the best phones out there, so there's plenty to like. I just feel like they took the old design, tweaked it a bit, and vouila, you have a new Galaxy that's going to make more money due to lower productioj costs. I could be wrong though.

I have just above 2GB of music and around 9GB of pictures, so that would leave not too much space for new content and apps.

This Chinese phone I'm using has a strange SD limit of 64GB.

I have messed up ankles already. But ice skating was fun though. The Missus signed me up along with the kid.

Actually I had the S6edge+ and promptly sold it. This one is way better.

They must have cheaped out on the software.

I'll go watch a movie. Maybe that will help me fall asleep.

Friend has an s6 edge, it's a really good piece of hardware, except for the battery.

I forgot it's about 3 am in California. Good luck trying to sleep.

I landed my new job successfully, which officially starts on May 1 (even though i'll be doing the job before that!) and preparations for the wedding are ramping up. On top of this we're looking for our house - I never knew I needed to know so much about mortgages etc in order to make a good decision about a house. Man what a busy time!

How are y'all?

Congrats on the new position. Same place?

Buying a house in the UK is not fun. I hated every minute of it and took a lot of the shine off the excitement. Then I had the renovations which added to the disappointment...

I guess you're getting close to your wedding now?

As for me, keeping well enough. Looking forward to my trip to Bordeaux and checking out some properties.

[N_LaRUE]

Lots of mobile talk. I'll stay out of that. I don't have much of an opinion on tech these days. Not much really exciting and the prices have got out of hand for what you get.

[N_LaRUE]

As for people playing their music or movies without headphones on public transit. Yeah I'm not very fond of them either. I keep thinking of that part in Star Trek - The Voyage Home where Spock does the nerve pinch on that guy blasting his radio on the bus...

It's been a quiet weekend for the most part. Weather hasn't been too great. Nice to have these long weekends every two weeks. :)

I wish I had a four day work week ahead! Gotta go dumpster diving on Monday for the lawyers...

Good luck with that!

Last week, it was the snow day. This week is spring break for the students but staff/faculty only get one day off. At least it's Monday though!

Haha, I live on streaming and cloud stuff so I'm good. I have almost had my 16 GB SE for close to a year.

Sounds like it was worth it!

Hopefully you can fall asleep.

Somehow I woke up to snow. Seriously? On the day before spring, it is actually snowing.

[Ed Boland]

I don't remember if I shared this here or not... but I made a new sig pic for my automotive forums (dodgeintrepid.net, forFMJbodies, MoparForums, etc)

[Ed Boland]

And an artsy "grunge" filter with snapseed...

You do realize sometimes it's better to refine a design than to always put out a new one, right?

I'm in the 32GB + SD slot or 64GB internal as my minimums. Only reason I bought a Robin was it was the cheapest temp phone I could get quickly at the time so I made due with the storage. Only reason why I got the 32GB Mi 5 was that it was the cheapest I could find that phone for. It was a struggle either way though based on my needs (I keep a minimum of 9GB of music on me).
