[MSFTisMIA]

so whats up guys ha long time no see i guess taking a year hiatus doesnt seem that long

Sahib!? Wow!

I had to do a double take when I saw your icon pop up...

[MSFTisMIA]

i think it had to do with the jobs i had before. anyways what i miss haha.

What's new?

You haven't missed much here...

[Scienceguy Labs]

Did you get another one?

Yep. 😁

[MSFTisMIA]

Yep.

Nice. I liked it, I really did...

...but having owned a Sony Smartwatch 3 and the Moto 360 Sport before it, I just didn't want to deal with the non removable strap. Outside of that, it had all tech I wanted. I'm glad you liked yours.

[sahib lopez]

i should probably recap how that year went. so i left sprint becuse they were closing the device repair side because they weren't making money. Then i got hired in a place that repaired , MacBook's, iMacs, pads, iPhone and any other iProducts. I didn't last there because me and the manager didn't see eye to eye. Then i was jobless for about a month before working at cricket wireless. Now i got offered a job for a computer warehouse company that works with computer parts. So i got hired to test out Computer hardware :D. and i start on the 20th hehe. Also im still the same sahib LOL . thats about it i think

[sahib lopez]

lol yup i was going for a while haha. i left all of a sudden :/

[sahib lopez]

i dont think much if anything to be honest. kind of a boring guy as of right now haha

Congrats on the new job!

Couple questions:

1) Do you still eat trip?
2) How did school turn out for you?
3) Any cute girls caught your eye yet?
4) How's the family doing?
5) Are you still using the Lumia 950?

The band is the only thing I don't like about it. Everything else is really nice. I always wanted a Moto 360, but got into the AW game late. I ended up getting another Watch Sport simply because I had gotten used to its functionality and just the feeling of wearing a watch. I still use my Vivoactive HR for my bike the though.

[sahib lopez]

On a different note, walking through Rockefeller Center today, I saw a man using a Lumia 950XL to take a selfie with his family. That's the first XL I've ever seen in the wild.

i still have my Lumia 950 but i am looking at getting the LG v20 :/

No shame there. I loved my 950XL. Would love to still be using it.
I've read good things about the v20....mostly written by Laura. 😂😂

The 360 was and still is nice. It's just Moto doesn't support their products. The flat tire isn't as much of an issue if you've used it before.

It's nice wearing a watch though.

You like that removable battery, eh?

It's a solid phone. Laura has one, I have one.

Hey, I didn't see that you were in my neck of the woods. Hope you're enjoying the trip.

If you eat Ethiopian food, I got a spot I could pass along to you...

Man, I didn't even think to say anything. Wish that I would have. I'm just tagging along with my wife. She's on a work trip. I'm also freezing my *** off. Left Arkansas with a wind breaker. It's been super cold. Ha ha Unfortunately, we leave tomorrow. We are coming back in the spring, so I'll definitely see what you're up to then.

Well, have a safe trip back. It got colder mighty quick. Between 99 and myself, you may end up with some more eats to try out...

I was almost tempted to send you a letter at your home address to see what you have been up to.

Wow, good to see you! Sounds like you have had a lot going on in your past year. Congrats on finishing school too.

Seriously. All of this action that I am seeing after the fact, haha.

Here's a pic from my Essential Phone using the stock app. The sun was at a terrible angle, but I think it came out ok. I'm sure the ported Google camera would have been much better though.

This is a great shot!

So...I have decided. As much as I like the LG Watch Sport and dislike the idea of two devices from the same OEM, I'm going for Andy's phone and the Huawei watch 2. I really was tempted by the Vivo 3 from Garmin, but I plan to retire my SWR10 for a Fitbit Alta HR that I plan to wear with the screen off and the screen side turned in. I have been using the OG Huawei watch with 2.0 the past few days to prep the transition and the OS still sucks for me in some areas.

But, it is a bit more security updates proof, so I'm going that...plus I wanted something that can take a beating a bit better than the 360.

I think Google mishandled Wear, but I'm not going to Tizen either.

This sounds like it will be a striking combo. When you do it, please let us know how this goes.
