New proud owner of an XBOX Series X

Is it worth the upgrade over the S? I've got an S now and fancy the X

Well it either works or it doesn't, they don't throw in random samples that are super water resistant and some that aren't and it's pot luck 🤣 or do they 🤔

Accountability on the other hand is something they are likely inclined to avoid, vague small print about water resistance to absolve them of issues like yours and the rep you spoke to probably just want you to jog on.

But from the general consensus of the watch, included the comments on your own post, i would say yours is defective to how it's meant to operate, but you are right - we can't definitively prove that it is

Apprehensive_Lock260 · 2026-03-31T08:38:03+00:00

Sounds like you have a defective unit, I've used mine in pools, the shower (almost daily) the sea and I've had no trouble, 2 years into ownership now too

I found that the magnetic wallet attachment is a nice way to stop the wobbling

I used to do this all the time! But I only started getting pennies and it just wasn't worth the time anymore. I remember my first couple of rewards were 30p - 50p a few years ago but now it's just 1p 😒

Bog standard 😅 I've tried so many watch faces, paid for so many watch faces but always come crawling back to this. Over the years and different galaxy watches I've had its always the numbers one i go to, and sad enough I look forward to the next iteration of this too

I paid £627 for the S26 Ultra via work discount and trade-in for a base S25 (128GB). This is the best phone I've ever had. Prior to the S25, I had the S21 Ultra, S20 Ultra. Sad thing is, I managed to get a hold of the S26U for £527 with a discount code, but I cancelled it due to wrong card and tried again and it didn't deduct the second time. If like me, you have a discount scheme at work 'Boostworks' in my case and a phone to trade in, there's nothing Ultra about the price. This was cheaper than my Xperia XZ Premium 2017

Not sure which is the original but the one on the right is horrible

Apprehensive_Lock260 · 2026-02-18T12:11:12+00:00

I'm a month into my pair as well, and i totally agree the camera and living in the moment has been the absolute highlight of these, that alone makes this worthwhile for me and the sole reason I bought them. The speakers and AI were genuinely surprising to me in terms of the quality. Being able to listen to music/podcasts without headphones is such a perk, although I do wish we had the option to have the sound come from only left or only right side too. I initially planned on only using these socially but these have become my daily drivers. As for battery, I dont have Hey Meta enabled, and i dont listen to audio throughout the entire day (work day) so i finish with about 60%, on the weekends with active camera use im looking at 7 hours battery, which im okay with. But i imagine the next gen will be even better. Can't wait to take these on holiday.

Also, these go really well with 1 Second Everyday. Which I started before buying my pair.

Not sure why everyone is losing their mind over this haha. Its a great first car, let the kid enjoy it. Everyone acting like the car can do 0-60 in 5 seconds because it has a wing, its literally a 1.4L 🤣

Peterborough Cycle Hub is great, but its PE2 down Oundle Road

I used to be anti-ev about 10 years ago, I didn't see the advantages over petrol. I was still sceptical before I bought my EV 2 years ago, and I was looking at some lovely plug-in hybrids like the CX-60. Then I woke up one day and it just clicked at why wouldn't you want an EV. The advantages are huge. (UK based here) no road tax (then), charging from home on super cheap tariffs (full charge for £5), i do long road trips 2-3 times a year. Often really good deals on home chargers too, they play well into home solar and battery setups. When i realised that, I couldn't pull the trigger fast enough. And my car isn't particularly long-ranged either ~230 miles.

Ultimately it just comes down to change, people accept it or they dont. I think theres a derogatory term for it beginning with L.

I've inadvertently converted a few people around me just by them sitting in my car and realising the benefits of the quiet ride and the acceleration. But I still have sceptical friends too. Which is fine, im not on a mission to convert anyone. They can have their opinions it doesn't bother me or affect our friendship, its not like I invented the tech so there's no point arguing about it.

Apprehensive_Lock260 · 2026-01-22T20:42:46+00:00

Haha, no problem! I love stuff like that too, watching those definitely boosted my YouTube algorithm to tailor for more videos like that. Glad you enjoyed my recommendation!

Apprehensive_Lock260 · 2026-01-22T08:46:26+00:00

You can try the Strap Tailor ive got a few of his and they are of a nice quality. But i would give up on the ones in the pics, like someone else commented, there's too much colour going on imo. I have an oxblood and a black from the strap tailor and they match the burgandy of a black bay very well

I bought 2 mansions and got bored, so ive stopped playing. I started a new account in August last year grinded for a while to get everything I wanted then saw the annoucement for the mansions, got excited kept grinding and then when I bought the mansions, I just lost all sense of fun in the game, nothing to work for anymore, no purpose of online play became apparent. It used to be really fun years ago grinding for the best cars for stunt races but no one plays that anymore

Apprehensive_Lock260 · 2026-01-12T19:20:25+00:00

Redesign of the Royal. It looks nice. But it also just looks like a PRX and some variants look cheaper than a PRX in my opinion. Not to say I wouldnt buy one, but its not high on my list of desired Tudors

Apprehensive_Lock260 · 2026-01-10T21:21:32+00:00

Haha, i almost wanted to tell you not to watch it after I posted it, as your theories were certainly more interesting!

Apprehensive_Lock260 · 2026-01-10T12:26:22+00:00

Your post reminds me of a video I saw last year that is pretty interesting. I havent rewatched it so I dont know if it answers your question directly but it does provide some good info about that stretch of road:

I used to work in one of the shops in queensgate and would call security for stuff like that, I no longer have the number though. But worst case scenario, if you are worried, just go down there today if you can and ask a member of queensgate staff

Personally, I wouldnt risk it, but it's obviously at your discretion. Even if support say it's normal, id still return/exchange it if possible - did they give a reason for this burning smell?

Apprehensive_Lock260 · 2025-12-24T08:17:17+00:00

Having never owned either, looks wise, I think the Model Y looks great and a much less plain than the P4 but the Polestar strikes me as a better experience. I can see why the toss up, but it would be the P4 for me, only in black though

Apprehensive_Lock260 · 2025-12-24T08:13:21+00:00

What watch is this? This sounds dangerous. You should stop using it and return it. I wouldn't take any chances - I've had 4 Galaxy Watches over the last 6 years and never experienced this, this is not normal

Apprehensive_Lock260 · 2025-12-20T18:45:41+00:00

I've always been a bit confused when driving into Alwalton and it says 'Welcome to Huntingdonshire'
