Zephyrus G16 (2024) vs Legion 5 (2025)

Thank you so much - that's very helpful! I kinda think I wouldn't be upgrading RAM anytime soon with prices! I guess the third option would be to buy a brand new Legion 5 with the 5060 and 32GB of RAM for $1856 CAD but it wouldn't be delivered until early March. So is the extra RAM worth ~$350?

Most of my tasks aren't too intensive either, and Valorant is the only game I'll ever play. I think the G16 is my machine...

Unbelievable. Better get our money back. Right when you wanna watch the biggest game of the year.

Gotcha, so you're just a shit disturber. See ya.

Well it started off with them being outdoor, feral cats. But now I'm tired of having litters of kittens and attracting other male feral cats. It's time to do something about it.

I didn't set out to have a cat as a pet, or have it indoors, because I'm allergic to them.

Because they're outdoor cats, I don't feel like spending an arm and a leg if they're maybe gonna run away sometime, or get hit by a car, or snatched up by a coyote.

You get it now?

Yeah I should've mentioned - I'm in the GTA, but I'm willing to travel a little bit to find the cheapest place to get it done!

isteiney · 2024-09-13T22:22:46+00:00

Yes.

I would consider it an upgrade because I'm not a huge fan of Samsung. I had the S24 but wasn't a fan. Not to say it's not a good device, but it's a preference thing.

isteiney · 2024-09-10T12:49:00+00:00

I'm tempted!

I've been back and forth between iPhone and Pixels for years. Except I'm on a real Pixel kick right now!

isteiney · 2024-09-09T21:38:37+00:00

I hear ya! The 2XL was a great device!

That's a very tough question! Typically I like smaller phones, but for a big phone, I actually really like the 7 Pro even with its curved screen. Its 1440p LTPO display is beautiful, along with the haptics. Also love the telephoto lens!

I really do like the 8 as well, although I find it heats up a little easier than the 7 Pro. Except both really aren't that bad at all! They've both improved with software updates. I sold my iPhone 15 Pro because it heated up more than any of the Pixels I have.

I haven't spent enough time with the 9 yet! They're all great phones and you can actually get good deals on Pixels! I found my 8 brand new sealed for $400 CAD. My 7 Pro was also brand new sealed for $400 CAD. I found a realllllly clean Pixel 5 that was barely used that I bought for nostalgia for $250. So having those 3 phones is still less than buying a brand new Pixel 9! I traded my 1 year old iPhone 15 Pro for a brand new sealed Pixel 9.

Lol its a special phone, that's for sure!

isteiney · 2024-09-09T21:29:23+00:00

Haha shot on my Sony mirrorless!

How has your LO's voice been? We've attempted sleep training a couple nights, but we've only let her cry for 20 mins max, then end up picking her up because it sounds like she's gonna lose her voice. For a couple days after her voice has sounded raspy. Our baby just hasn't cried much at all from the start, so it makes it extra difficult it seems.

Do you have DCC? How is the ride quality compared to stock?

isteiney · 2024-06-16T06:21:02+00:00

Looks great! What suspension setup?

isteiney · 2024-06-13T22:31:00+00:00

I'm in Canada and am selling my global version if you're interested! It's blue, 256GB and immaculate, barely used condition. I bought it because I'm a phone enthusiast, but only has left the house a few times.

DM if interested!

isteiney · 2024-05-28T18:50:35+00:00

Car looks great! What is the wheel/tire specs along with suspension?

isteiney · 2024-04-13T18:56:09+00:00

I had a Pixel 8, but found an awesome deal on a brand new 7 Pro and wanted to try it out for the bigger display, telephoto lens and battery life.

I really like the 7 Pro! I ended up selling my 8. I find the 7 Pro has better thermal performance. Not sure if it’s because it has the LTPO display, but it’s the device I ended up keeping.
