WC 1M Post Challenge - You Ready?!

Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

Why don't you do that? Because while you were typing this, I got a blue S7 edge for $360

Good for you.

1) I don't by carrier unlocked anymore. Ever.
2) I don't want to deal with the headache of trying to sell 2(!) phones
3) I want 1 compact and one relatively compact phablet.

I won't lie...I do love the V20, but I'll pass...

Won't lie either.
1. S7 edge is mostly for the blue color and to use as a good trade device.
2. I am pretty much done selling phones. Trading is okay as long as phones go to someone else and cash comes back
3. I am very happy with my current device setup.
4. The V20 is a great device but the camera is still subpar compared to Google, Apple and Samsung devices. I have watched enough reviews to settle on that opinion.

I don't blame you for point 2. It sucks. The only sane trick is to sell one at a time but even that isn't fun.

Congrats on point 1, that coral blue is beautiful!
I can relate, so happy that my last phone I have been trying to sell has been sold finally. Debating if I'll sell my Honor 8 or not but I need to rollback the software first...

I'll respectfully disagree on the V20's camera... outside of the 950 XL, in terms of full manual controls (especially for video), the V20 is at the head of the line. Apple, Samsung and the Pixel cameras are better point and shoot full auto mode. Of these 3, I think Samsung has the best balance, but cannot go wrong with either.

It boils down to what people want and are looking for. I'd happily own a V20 if it was the same size as the Note 5/950 XL.

You want to trade me that S7E for a Honor 8 + Robin? Lol.

Still pictures are best on Pixel and video is best on 7+. V20 has the purple haze in still pictures and video.

I think a carrier locked Samsung device is probably your worst nightmare

Don't need that in my life.

Easier to correct purple haze than lens flaring. We're going to have to agree to disagree here. I'm curious to see what LG does for the G6...

I still like the G5.

I agree, that's why I am keeping the S7e

No lens flaring issues so far for me. But whatever floats each one's boat. I like the G6 better than the G5.

Right now I am really looking forward to the Eve V which is going to ship sometime in April and will replace my SP3.

Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

All in all, I'm satisfied with my gear. While there may be a few things I would have done differently, I'm still good with what I have.

In other news my car odometer is showing 99999, tomorrow morning it's going to turn to 6 figures.

I'll stay out of the mobile talk as I'll let you giants of mobile trading, buying and selling ramble on.

I'm just waiting to see what comes out at MWC.

Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

I don't believe I've had that yet. Sounds interesting.

It's essentially in the chilli style family of dishes. The recipe I discovered has raisins (currants as a substitute) + olives + ground beef (turkey/lamb or other meat ground up as a substitute) + cumin + black pepper + salt + cayenne + cinnamon + onions + bay leaves.

I did mine without the bay leaves and swapped out cinnamon for paprika. Still, very good for a first time making it...And of course, you know what thread to look at to see pictures...
