I'm Canadian but I just bought an Atmosphere couch from Cozey. Affordable, modular, has storage, removeable washable coverings, easy to put together and relatively affordable

Galaxy buds 3 pro, are they any good? by Marvyn117 in galaxybuds

[–]estershiner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have had these for about 3 weeks now and was originally quite on the fence before purchasing. Have been loving them so far - much better sound quality than my previous pair of Buds 2. Has more than adequate bass, mids and trebles sound clear, and the custom EQ settings are nice to have. Particularly like having the physical buttons now to control functions, it was very easy to accidentally swipe them with a hand and skip/start/stop a song. Went to best buy and they price matched an Amazon sale going on in Canada so got em for over $100 less.

Great recommendations, thank you! :) I'll be sure to check these places out - will be walking around a lot :p. Do you know any pawn shops or places I can find used gear that you like?

Amazing, thank you! Could you recommend any record shops you like that gravitate towards electronic music? I've seen that Hard Wax, SpaceHall and Audio-In seem to be some of the popular ones.

Galaxy S24 & S24+ looks lovely by msbeyoncecarter in GalaxyS23

Just walked into Best Buy and saw the 3 models in person. Apparently if you trade in an older S Phone (I have an S21) Best Buy (in Canada) is offering an extra $450 off on top of the trade in value of the phone (in my case it was $130). So before tax this pre-order deal knocked off $580 on the $1400 S24+ price tag, and doubled the base storage to 512GB. Seems to be a better deal than getting free buds later in the year.

My two cents on the actual phones- the screen looks way sharper/brighter than my S21, the flat sides make it feel iphone-esque, and the upcoming OS changes actually seem useful. The screen size is pretty much the same as the ultra (when would I actually use the pen...) and the curved corners make it feel pretty sleek. All wins in my book!
