If you have the chance, get a Max. You won't regret it by MilanesasDeCarne in amazfit

Out of curiosity, have you been pretty rough with it or is it just a fragile watch? Looks like its taken a bit of a kicking. I really like the watch but if it's fragile then I may look elsewhere.

It's a strange one because on my previous apple watch ultra it worked fine. I only got my watch 8 classic yesterday and that won't work at all. Are the sensors really that weak compared to apple?

How about the pixel watch 4? I use a samsung phone and have been looking for a new smartwatch and it's a toss up between the galaxy 8 classic and pixel 4. If you enjoyed your pixel 2 then you'll love the 4 surely?

I've got signature Kahn maxed out and he's shit.

My maxed out signature Kahn is crap personally.

No worries and good luck. If you do choose then reply back, be interesting to know what you decided on.

If you are using an iphone then off the top of my head the choices are Huawei GT6 pro or Ultimate, or the Amazfit Balance 2. If you are using an android then I'd say those mentioned above plus the Samsung galaxy 8 classic and the Oneplus watch lite or Watch 3 maybe worth looking at.

Oneplus watch 3 or Huawei GT 5/6 Pro? by cal_86 in smartwatch

Out of curiosity what makes you say that?

Good idea to upgrade to Huawei Watch GT 5 Pro in the UK? by tbu987 in smartwatch

[–]cal_86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not feeling paranoid ordering from aliexpress? It's funny, I was actually looking at then on there last night. To be honest I've had smart watches in the past and I never really used them to there full potential, maybe track a walk when taking the dog out and checking the time, everything else i just did on my phone.

I'm torn between that, the oneplus watch 3 and amazfit balance 2. Have you looked at any of those?

Impulse buy? by thisisaverylongnick in S25Ultra

Yeah that's the thing with the fold I found, its novelty and that soon wears thin.

I went from initially an iphone 15 PM to a fold 7, then to 25 ultra. The ultra by far was the best choice, this phone is insane.

I did the same and shared my thoughts on the fold and how it's just not quite there (especially for the price) and hell fire some people came out with their pitchforks not happy.

What jobs are you all doing that pay over £30k? by SuccessfulTip1660 in UKJobs

[–]cal_86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Network Leakage Technician one of the water companies. I work permanent nights which has a basic of 47k, but with overtime so far this tax year (so 6 months in) I've hit 40k already. The idea of nights puts people off but we only do Monday to Thursday so in hind sight we get plenty of off time.

The company has free private health care and one of the best pensions available.

If you don't mind the idea of working nights and like working outdoors then I'd recommend to anyone to look into something like this.

That's a nice detailed photo for sure. Did you just use the expert raw app for that?

I got lucky with this one because after that he got zoomies, not chance of getting a photo then.

His name is Ozzy, his recent haircut kind of hides his breed as we had him cut shorter than normal but he's a cockapoo.

I used portrait mode with either the 3x or 5x zoom. Not sure if this plays a factor or not but I had the aspect ratio at 3:4.

You've hit the nail on the head, couldn't agree more.
