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

You seem to have a lot of tech issues lately... :p
The Windows Insider issue with my phone sorted itself yesterday. The V and 8S are supposed to go my officemates specifically for Viber. The V lost its capability to use the SIM with the 8S decides to reboot, reboot, reboot...

I might just buy two Acer M330...

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

I think it's a good buy!

I think so too. It bests the Mi 5 in the following ways:

1) Full US band support
2) Micro SD card slot
3) Camera, especially in low light

It's a wash between Honor 8 and Mi 5 apparently in terms of size, panel, design, silicon and software. I still think the G5 is the better fit for me because of the camera and that LG will be good in terms of software updates, but man...the Chinese experience is impressive. This made me wish that if the G5 went with a smaller res screen the battery life would be better. Infinitely so, even on a 2800mah cell.

If I didn't have a Mi 5, I'd get this Honor 8... instantly. But as it stands...I'm in the fence. I think the 950 is better than the Mi 5 camera wise, but may lose to both the G5 and P9/Honor 8 slightly. So if i can get a 950 on the cheap, I'll hold onto the Mi 5.

Man, what a year to have $400 to spend! Choices are tremendous. Even the Idol 4 on Cricket for $200 is a great deal...

I got my P9 for about $400 so I shouldn't whine...

But I still don't have a Windows phone with Continuum.

I was blessed enough to get my Mi 5 for well under $300 for the base model - which is the steal of the year so far. Right now, that same model I have runs for $400 if you're lucky on eBay or my favorite Hong Kong site, and maybe Swappa can score you for $300..but more likely $330-$350.

So I'm not complaining either. My guess is I'll hold onto the Mi 5 and troll for a 950, unless I can get a G5 for $325...as in either the US model with all the carrier bands here, or the bootloader unlocked model.

The 950 is still too expensive here, and i'd like to avoid another Lumia. If i go crazy this weekend i might end up with a Jade which will cost me around $500.

Wow! This game has totally consumed all of my free time! I love it!!

I haven't even played Clash Royale on my phone for the last few days...

You know it's great when Ed paused from playing Clash Royale. That's the equivalent of Sahib not posting for three days, see how serious it ia? Lol.

Wasted day. On the way home from London already. Too crowded and the weather makes it more unpleasant. Oh well.
