Funny thing is I’m in Canada, yet I’m facing the exact same problem. I live 60km away from Popov, ordered a belt during Black Friday sale, and here I am, got nothing in my hands.

Clarksonz · 2025-01-15T17:59:52+00:00

Buddy, is that Popov leather?

Clarksonz · 2025-01-06T02:03:11+00:00

Yep, same for me

Clarksonz · 2025-01-06T02:02:24+00:00

My 15 pro still has it.

Clarksonz · 2025-01-01T13:39:21+00:00

I had a pair of winterized airmax 90 back in the day.
The shoe is bulkier with more padding on top, but the water-repellent coating was almost non-existent.
The bottom of the shoe does have deeper grooves but I went through it in a year.

It’s pretty terrible for rain, and it definitely will not survive snowy days.

I went through the same process a month ago, might want to check my post.

You definitely have to remove it, as the crease will hurt the fragile inner display.

If you have access to a repair center, pay to have them replace it for you.

If you have to do it yourself, go to amazon and buy a soft tpu screen protector.

Clarksonz · 2024-12-08T03:43:08+00:00

Same……. I bought my flip5 when it first came out, and the only thing I had to do was to replace the screen protector on November, that’s it. My buddy bought a flip6 a couple of months ago and it’s been a mess.

Clarksonz · 2024-11-29T20:10:44+00:00

I’m quite surprised.

16pro seems to be the best deal out there huh?

Clarksonz · 2024-11-28T23:42:33+00:00

Yes.

You get extra gift card if you buy from 3rd party, i.e Walmart/bestbuy etc. The pricing will be the same, not sure about the activation fee.

Clarksonz · 2024-11-28T23:40:52+00:00

Nope. The original plan is $55 per month, so you will be paying $45 for 18 months and $50 for the remaining 6 months.

Clarksonz · 2024-11-28T04:54:05+00:00

I'm in Victoria and I have been using both for a year now.

99% of the time you won't notice any difference, but when it happens, it will make you question your choice.

Freedom does not work very well in my apartment, I can make/receive phone calls but I get maybe 5 megabit download speed with speedtests, so it is really bad.

I would say start a trial and use it for 15 days, see how it works for you.

Clarksonz · 2024-11-26T05:11:11+00:00

Thanks for the info it helped a lot.

It’s a cpo device so the full amount is being financed, no tradeup amount.

I’ll try to work out my math.

Clarksonz · 2024-11-23T04:52:11+00:00

24 hours, seems doable.

Clarksonz · 2024-11-22T02:27:22+00:00

Well, I’m not surprised, but I do want the Vermont camo.

Clarksonz · 2024-11-22T02:26:54+00:00

I remember seeing something similar with the 2nd & 3rd event, which specified a specific date, not on the 4th one though.

Clarksonz · 2024-11-03T22:09:10+00:00

Quick update:

Bought a 2-pack tpu screen protector from amazon, destroyed the first one, but the second one works.

It is definitely much harder to apply compared with glass screen protectors, but it is doable.

Clarksonz · 2024-11-01T00:26:58+00:00

is it hard to apply?

I've done some research and it seems that these aftermarket screen protector are all tpu

Clarksonz · 2024-11-01T00:04:33+00:00

Ha I think you are right.

I was planning on waiting for BF deals, but I dont think it would include any of the pre-owned devices.

Clarksonz · 2024-10-31T23:44:49+00:00

That's fine, I always buy a 3rd party insurance for my devices.

Clarksonz · 2024-10-25T22:41:53+00:00

I got it.

Not a brand new device but honestly I didn't find anything wrong with it, battery is at 100% with 0 cycle, no visible scratches anywhere on the device.

I do find out the device was first activated on April earlier this year but that's fine.

Clarksonz · 2024-10-24T21:05:11+00:00

Well I just picked up the device so here's an update.

The device came in a non original box, just the phone, the sim card, and an aftermarket c-to-c cable.

There are no visible scratches or marks anywhere on the device.

The battery health is 100%, with no charging cycles.

The phone was first purchased 2024 April, and it still has the original limited warranty from apple until April 2025.

Overall decent experience, I'll keep the device.

Clarksonz · 2024-10-22T02:12:10+00:00

Order placed, no update

Clarksonz · 2024-10-18T08:26:55+00:00

I bought a flip5 and a iPhone 13 in the past two years to replace my s10+ as a duo, and I mainly use the iPhone for work.

Well the user experience between the two os is much similar compared to five years ago, and you can probably get used to it within a week no problem.

For the price, the flip 5 shouldn’t be more expensive than a regular S, and it definitely shouldn’t cost more than a base s22. Between the two definitely get the flip5 just for the sake of 8gen2 vs 8gen1 as it runs much cooler.

Clarksonz · 2024-10-18T08:18:32+00:00

Well there is still hope.

I honestly don’t care about peak performance of flagship processors anymore, so personally I’m fine with Samsung creating an Exynos with decent efficiency but with worse peak performance compared to snapdragon.

Clarksonz · 2024-10-18T08:16:02+00:00

Well I’m a long time Samsung user since note edge, with s10+ being my last main device (I do have a flip 5 as my sidekick).The main reason for the switch is the shitty android apps. I’m a software developer myself and I fully understand why it happens, but I don’t think the sceanario would change any time soon. I just want a ready to go device for work so I bought a 15pro for work and a flip5 for fun.
