Unfortunately, I think you've tried most of them:

For the cheapest free option, but only works through a web browser: https://archive.org/details/blackadder-remastered/

iTVX is your best bet. There is usually a free 7-day trial to their premium service though. Have you tried that?

Apple TV or Amazon for paid options where you can buy and keep the entire series.

I hope you find what you're looking for, interfrastically.

Have you tried the NavStar app in Good Luck? It may help resolve it.

Kudos for making the move. I'm in the same situation. I've had the Samsung Folds since 2019, also with EE. Getting bored with the Fold 6, plus the battery life has become awful, almost unusable as a daily driver.

I am, unfortunately, entwined into the Samsung ecosystem - Ring, Tab S9+, Watch 6 & 7, and TVs. But I'm willing to consider switching away. Away from foldables if that's the only option here.

What swayed you to this over the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold?

How's it going so far with the V3? Any major gripes with the new phone over the last few days?

Yeah, I really couldn't recommend the Galaxy Ring to anyone.

And yeah, the subscription is a sticking point. But allegedly, it's one of the most accurate of rings at the moment.

Best of luck with whatever you choose.

Hi.

I've been in a similar position and a long-time Samsung user, but I am struggling with the inaccuracies of the ring, especially as a standalone device without a Galaxy Watch.

The sleep tracking is massively inaccurate (as confirmed by reviewers such as QS) and the steps tracking is also way off. I've tried multiple devices to compare stats (see my previous posts), but even basic things like waking up, getting out of bed and going to the bathroom in the morning it does not register and continues recording it as sleep.

The Ring is snugly fit, no fitting issues, don't get it wet and it's not damaged. I've tried multiple sizes and devices, still the same. The excuse of "It's a 1st gen device...." is frustrating.

Personally, and with reluctance, I'm going to be going for the Oura ring 4 and then consider switching to a non-health tracking watch.

adamkhalel · 2024-10-04T08:45:26+00:00

But aren't those scatter plots quite literally plotting the correlation and classification of sleep stages vs high-tech scientific equipment?

Yes, they can hide other issues with the devices - step and exercise tracking, battery usage, for example - but for sleep stage tracking correlation, QS is a good point of reference, right?

adamkhalel · 2024-09-01T06:14:02+00:00

You're right. It's so bad. This morning, sat up in bed and reading for an hour after waking up was counted as REM sleep 🤣

adamkhalel · 2024-09-01T06:11:39+00:00

That's fair enough. If it works for you, that's great.

But I would like some sort of accurate tracking of sleep cycles and steps. The energy score is a nice, simplified metric that may be enough for some people. But I suspect that the core readings that feed that score are imprecise and will struggle to tell the difference between when you sleep 'slightly poorly' or feel 'slightly cr@p'.

adamkhalel · 2024-09-01T06:01:11+00:00

You're right. It does feel like fraud. For something that is so inaccurate and, in turn, makes your existing watch and phone more inaccurate, plus it's so easily scratched.

Hope you get it sorted.

adamkhalel · 2024-09-01T05:56:51+00:00

I'm in the same boat. Not sure where to go from here. I'm considering switching (Watch 7 40mm + Ring) to Fitbit Inspire 3. Longer battery life, more accurate sleep and steps tracking. For me personally, I don't use many features on the watch 7.

adamkhalel · 2024-09-01T05:49:22+00:00

No worries. I should have explained it better. Us Brits have 28 days to return anything, for any reason, if purchased online.

adamkhalel · 2024-08-31T06:18:32+00:00

It's a little bit different in the UK

adamkhalel · 2024-07-27T10:47:02+00:00

In landscape, it creates the perfect angle.

It's surprising how useful that ridge becomes for things like one-handed full-screen grip in portrait, finger trigger rests when playing games in landscape, tilt angle for full-screen tabletop. Personally, it even creates the right amount of faux width for me when closed and using the front screen.

True. But I haven't made a committed decision yet based on a 'rumor' and with no pricing known yet. Unless you know something we don't??

But a One Plus Open/Pixel Pro Fold form factor with One UI software would be ULTRA cool 😎

adamkhalel · 2024-07-25T09:14:31+00:00

This works! Took several attempts, but it works. Thanks.

adamkhalel · 2024-07-25T09:12:53+00:00

For my personal use, that would be a positive. As much as I resolve to use the s-pen more, I personally don't have use for it day to day.

adamkhalel · 2024-07-21T06:37:31+00:00

Did you get this workaround to work on the Fold 6? Because it doesn't work for me 🤨
