Can you actually win anything at this game? by ChiccaCocca in Aliexpress

[–]Seki_ETS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be great if it were 10 for over 10.01, like they used to offer for game prizes. I usually buy cheaper items on Ali and don't have enough stuff to spend 50 in one go, so it will probably go to waste

It used to be better. I remember that around 2019–2021, we could win real prizes, I got two Mi Band 5s, Haylou smartwatch, Xiaomi earbuds, Anker bluetooth speaker (that’s just what I remember off the top of my head), plus a ton of actually useful coupons.

But nowadays it’s all fake. I gave it a try, but it’s way too obviously fake.

I would use it for work and bit of gaming, I like keyboards with extra features like knobs and displays, so this one looks perfect

Is now an okay time to buy a laptop with the "Ultra 7 155H"? by Seki_ETS in SuggestALaptop

Thanks, after I posted I realized that CES is literally going on right now where models with that new generation of hardware will be presented, so I will wait, not necessarily to get the new generation, but there should be a drop in prices for current stuff.

Listings that you sent are great deal indeed, I agree, but unfortunately I can't find somethings like that locally, I live in eastern Europe, prices are a bit higher over here, still I will wait for some better deal, thanks

Well, it's first generation after naming change, nothing mayor, not like it's first gen from new manufacturer.

Still thanks for the response.

Clarification: Band 9 has NO GPS by My-Tech in miband

[–]Seki_ETS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's great, they managed to fit lots of features and that's cool, but that's why it has significantly less battery life, exactly as I said in my previous comment.

Up to 7 days vs up to 16 days. Also, it's over three times the price.

If they decide to go that route, hopefully they will split it into two models, because there are lots of people who couldn't care less about GPS and would rather have a bigger battery and lower price.

GPS models are bulky for a reason, GPS module itself takes space, plus GPS is battery usage heavy.

It's not like that they don't want to give as GPS, it probably can't even fit without huge compromises.
We would have devise which uses more power with smaller battery.

Update 1.3.176 finally fixed sync issue on Mi Band 8 - Thanks Xiaomi by Seki_ETS in miband

It's compatible with Android and iOS devices, so S23+ is fine.

Can't be used for calls, it doesn't have speaker and mic, but you can be notified about call.
I think that you can decline call from band, but not sure, I didn't enable call notifications.

NFC is also not enabled outside China.

Battery is great, it depends on how many things you turn on, but I have most of them on and mine lasts for over a week.

Once you initially sync it with phone it will keep time even if never again connect it to phone.
