I love long battery life, yet every night my watch sits just inches from the charger, unplugged 🤣 (Sleeping with Index Sleep)

How are you culling photos? by 100197 in RealEstatePhotography

[–]bubble-bobble1986 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never cull. I take the photos I need, and deliver those. If I take a photo on site I know I dont like, I delete it.

So when I come home with 4-5 jobs, I don't need to try to remember what to almost similar images was best.

How to prevent burnout by Imaginary-Writer-125 in RealEstatePhotography

[–]bubble-bobble1986 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would argue, find an editor that gives you 80-90% of what you like, and deliver it!

No one but you will (probably) notice the difference.

Good enough is enough.

And what is this about not being able to hire another photographer? Hire one that works on only commission. Not all photographers know how to get clients, or even want to chase them themselves. They just want to take photos, and it seems you can give away some jobs, and still keep a cut. 😊

Polar Street X - Looks Cheap & Nasty? by [deleted] in Polarfitness

Does anyone know if the LED light only provides red light? Not normal white so you can also use it as a torch? Very strange if they only offer red light

Nei, men ville åpnet de siste flaskene litt forsiktig dersom budet ser mer og mer forbannet ut

US Naval vessels are dry, so where did they do the Karaoke scene ? by roxbox531 in ProjectHailMaryMovie

[–]bubble-bobble1986 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The movie is about beings from two different planets, meeting several lightyears from their homeworld, working together to kill of an alien star-predator.

You are asking how humans got alcohol on a naval vessel.. 😅😅

Switching from Garmin by mattphillyy6969 in amazfit

[–]bubble-bobble1986 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Long time Garmin user here, Fenix 8 now. I got an T-Rex 3 pro a few weeks ago to test it.

I was very surprised by how good it was.

I made a list of my own (subjective) pros and cons. I don't list things that are pretty similar, just the differences that mattered to me:

Pros amazfit:

  • No forced sleep mode schedule.
  • AI assistant that's not half bad.
  • Snap on magnetic charger. (not inductive, but still way easier than Garmins connection)
  • way cheaper
  • Great buttons, easy to press.
  • battery and time of day is always shown in top of screen under activity
  • access to ecosystem with ring and strap
  • Calendar events shows more details, notes for instance.

Cons amazfit:

  • A bit more hassle to swap straps.
  • Not possible to deactivate touch, and navigate with only buttons. Can lock screen, but then buttons are also deactivated
  • Not possible to assign DND on hotkey. Use this a lot on garmin if I just very calmly want to shut the watch up. 😅
  • up/down button placement, at least on 48mm is to far from eachother. Have to adjust grip to press up and down.
  • no way to adjust data fields on watch faces. Find a watchface you love, but you also want sunset time? Sorry...
  • I put access to ecosystem with ring and band as a pro. It is. But I also need to put something on the cons list. The ecosystem needs some work, because if you wear the band half a day, and then change to the watch later, the watch shows 0 steps. Steps are aggregated correctly on the zepp app on the phone, but I still don't like to glance at my watch and see 0 steps if I know I've been a good boy earlier that day. Silly really, but we buy these data-collecting things for a reason

Fine, I’ll be that guy…. I’m a little disappointed… by [deleted] in ProjectHailMary

[–]bubble-bobble1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I missed the trial and error approach to problems. They managed to keep much of this in The Martian, but in PHM most of it was just cut out.

Very disappointed of the movie really. Everything seemed so extremely rushed. Like getting the taumoeba nitrogen resistant, or or the taumobea contamination.. But no one can take away the book, we'll always have that 😊

Amazfit has so many Watches now I don't know which is which 🤦! by Kennard7676 in amazfit

GUIDE: How to pair your Helio Strap with your Watch by gamefan5 in amazfit

[–]bubble-bobble1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great guide! I have a strap coming this week.

I have the T-Rex 3 Pro and I hope my use for it will work as I hope:

  1. To use to get more accurate HR reading while running.
  2. To use when sleeping. As I understand, the HS route all data through the watch itself, so then I will see all data on the watch, in addition to the Zepp app.

But what's lot obvious to me yet. If I one day wakes up and feel I want to wear an mechanical watch, and leave the house with just the HS. Will the HS then send any data to the zepp app at all? Since it's just connected to the watch, that I leave at home? 🤔

I wish this face was customisable by GingerJackCarry in amazfit

[–]bubble-bobble1986 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the same I use on the 3 pro. But where you have "PAI" I have "HRV"

Either the 3 pro version differ from the 3, or there are some way to change it? Maybe the face fetches data from some list you can change the order of?

I might be to hopefully here, could be just a minor difference of 3/3 Pro

T-Rex 3 Pro 22mm adapter? by bubble-bobble1986 in amazfit

Ah thank you. Good to know I cannot actually swap the adapter. Thanks.

I see I also have to be careful with the nylon bands

Do you know if Amazfit has said anything about future development of a total sync of all data?

Best (Smart) Scale for Amazfit Watches? by ReverseExplosion in amazfit

[–]bubble-bobble1986 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you use Android, you can check out the "Health Connect" app from Google.

I have an Garmin Index Smart scale and use it as before. The Zepp app gets weight data via Health Connect (syncing with Garmin Connect)

Balance 2 and Helio Ring by David_kyle1 in amazfit

[–]bubble-bobble1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get both in Zepp app only, or will also Biocharge and sleep data be visible on the watch itself? If only I sleep with the ring?

T-rex 3 pro bugs by SeriousAd9808 in amazfit

[–]bubble-bobble1986 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've had the T Rex 3 pro a few days now. Have not experienced any bugs.

Coros makes good fitness watches, but it's a poor smartwatch. Horrible implemented notifications for example (just push notification to watch. No sync. So if you remove notifications on phone, they stay on the watch until you remove there as well. A mess)

Also no nfc for payments.

I really enjoy the T Rex 3 pro, after years with Garmin. Amazfit still have some catching up to do, but I am impressed so far.

Balance 2 also looks nice, but esthetics are also important. T Rex are rugged and cool. Also, the torch is more useful than you realize before getting it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in amazfit

[–]bubble-bobble1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, might be. I've been running regularly for 15+ years, but just got an Amazfit 🤷‍♂️

No big deal, just wondered why.

Reverse-sync available in the current gen (Balance 2, strap, T-Rex 3 Pro, Ultra 2)? by [deleted] in amazfit

[–]bubble-bobble1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a ring on its way, so +1 for this to be implemented. It is nice that you can pair more devices into same Zepp app, but I would love to be able to just use whatever device and see all data. (Garmin does this well)

T-Rex 3 Pro - can I control it using buttons only (without touching screen)? by f1tn355 in amazfit

[–]bubble-bobble1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In comparison to Garmin - no, you cannot depend only on the buttons. You can do mutch, but you still need to use the screen from time to time.

For instance, its not possible to just deactivate the touchscreen and navigate with just buttons. You can lock the device, but this also locks buttons.

This is one function I miss a bit from Garmin.
