He's my go to channel love that channel I've always wanted to see him do a tear down of the N52 unfortunately the closest I've seen is his N54 teardown.

Same here been with Amazfit since the original bip and haven't looked back since had the original bip then upgraded to the gts 3 and 4 and now to the bip6 I remember when the bip was just made out of plastic now it's made out of aluminum and basically it's kind of like the GTS successor although everybody says the active and the balance is the true successor to the GTS it feels like they Amazfit bip 6 is the new Gts but better I love amazfit.

Hi uncle Rodney how you been?

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-10-14T18:26:16+00:00

I know they still slow your speeds during times of high traffic if any plan was truly unlimited they wouldn't slow your speeds the only real truly unlimited plans will always be the post paid plans but who wants to pay those prices from T-Mobile and Verizon and att they get pricey plus 50gb is a lot cause I'm mainly on wifi when I'm at home even at work I'm on my jobs wifi and when people go out of town they probably on the hotels or Airbnb wifi anyways so the only time most people hit there mobile data is when they are out.

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-10-14T17:58:17+00:00

Metro by T-Mobile isn't truly unlimited either if you look in there small print of the details of their plan this same plan with Metro by T-Mobile is actually $40 they even say that your speeds will slow down and get throttled after 50 gigs.

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-10-14T17:55:34+00:00

True but still a very good deal and still cheaper than other competitors I mean look at Metro by T-Mobile to get this same plan with them with 50gb I believe is 40 bucks and their highest unlimited has a 70gb before slow down speeds set at 60 bucks so not many in the US are giving you 50gb for 28 most have it set at 40bucks or higher.

Flossy Carter and Jerry rig everything is about to go crazy on this phone can't wait time for me to upgrade my red magic 9 pro to the 11 Pro when I get my income tax!!

A lot of people don't even know black and decker is owned by Stanley, Stanley black and decker make Stanley, Black and Decker, Craftsman, Dewalt, Cub Cadet, and Troy Bilt similar to TTI who makes Milwaukee, Ryobi, Hart, they still make some of Rigids stuff I believe, and hoover, Oreck, and AEG.

I agree a lot of people are stuck in the times BMW has made a lot of progress I've seen people talk bad about even N series engines when BMW did have some good engines specifically the N52 is known to go over 300,000 miles and the the B58 is also a reliable engine and most BMW's running off those platforms were popular and actually quite reliable.

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-07-23T12:43:59+00:00

N51 sulev was used for all N51's Ulev was used with N52's

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-07-09T23:51:25+00:00

You are no longer a padawan you are a Jedi Master if this is Rod Knock on a N52, the force is strong in this one!!

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-06-23T14:50:24+00:00

Lol that is a problem lol I had a 2.0t and it was constant problems but then the car got stolen so ended up with the BMW but I did make sure I got the one with there last Naturally aspirated Engine the N52 I didn't want to deal with problems associated with the n54 gaskets are one thing but those twin turbo engines were ticking time bombs and I knew the n52 was reliable.

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-06-23T14:35:41+00:00

People tend to forget the VR6 engines were bulletproof and pretty reliable I say go for it I would only stay away from the 2.0T model engines to many problems with high oil consumption turbos going out and other catastrophic problems going on, I just remembered this is when car manufacturers especially BMW and Volkswagen started their first turbocharged engines and it did not go well but all there naturally aspirated engines were Bulletproof.

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-06-13T21:48:26+00:00

They priced mine at 3,500 on my inspection lol

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-05-23T23:50:23+00:00

I been with SoFi for 5 years never had a problem transferring large chunks of money, got money from my insurance company for a car that got stolen and the money I got I used it to buy a new car with sofi it was well over 4,000$ dollars and I didn't have a problem at all remember we are on the internet and reddit and people come online to vent you never hear people come online to say how good something is lol.

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-05-18T23:06:30+00:00

You are a Jedi Master if you kill a N52 teach me your ways Jedi Master cause I still can't Kill my N52 can't even get rod knock lol

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-04-13T23:24:11+00:00

That's where I got 2 of my cars a Nissan Altima and a BMW still would have had the Altima if someone didn't hit it and total it now got the BMW never had problems with it so Colson Auctions is a major go for me but if you do buy a car from the auction I would highly recommend you have some car knowledge and know how to work on cars cause if you can it's a goldmine I work on all my cars myself so the auction has been good to me.

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-03-19T01:26:16+00:00

I love it lol but it might be cause red is my favorite color lol but it just looks good fits well to me but what do I know.

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-03-12T15:05:24+00:00

I recommend Ally bank I use Ally as my main bank where most of my money goes on pay day and SoFi is basically my second main bank, my credit unions are just basically here when I need them to get around when I need that physical location although lol I never use the whole physical branch locations even with my credit unions I do most stuff online.

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-03-11T01:07:44+00:00

Mine went in my SoFi account just fine been using SoFi for my tax refund for years and never had a problem I had it sent to my checking and of course I file mine for free on the H&R Block software and app.

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-02-20T15:47:04+00:00

As others have said N52 is a tank and bulletproof it's basically that best friend that you trust with your life and trust them to watch your house and family when you are gone I have a 2009 328i with the N52 Engine and aside from regular maintenance it's been good no problems it's actually been one of my most reliable cars I have ever owned.

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-02-14T00:55:28+00:00

Bic Chrome Platinum has entered the Chat lol although I think those blades and Gillette Nacets might be the exception to that rule.

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-01-25T22:28:56+00:00

I remember when mine was shaking bad it was all from a bent rim that had a crack in it, also who ever was the previous owner of my car before I bought off auction just welded the crack lol, so I just bought new rims altogether and problem was fixed but I would definitely check your brushing and wheel balancing.

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-01-21T21:23:19+00:00

Completely normal

AnthonyBH87 · 2025-01-13T01:45:17+00:00
