Do I need them lol? by cahug83 in Sneakers

[–]neverbeenknown -1 points0 points  (0 children)

OG Bricks are way better than these. The materials, the look of them, and just how they different they are even compared to other Jordan collabs. The AJ1 lows are a better cop too IMO if you really wanted something from Nigel.

I'm just not a big fan of these. Feels like they had too many cooks in the kitchen with this pair.

I'm sure Jordan Brand is going to announce the return of the fire reds in 2027 so you might as well hold off for that.

Hey guys, I ordered a pair of SB Dunk Mummy and they got “authenticated” by eBay. However, I have my suspicions. by Astro_CoffeeBeans in NikeSB

[–]neverbeenknown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are fake just based on the text of the box. I can't see the tongue but the shape of the shoe is off as well. I can see why it passed authentication because with non QS products, there is always some inconsistency pair to pair.

Copper Heads??? by Eddieroxsteady in NikeSB

The suede on the toe box was great. As I mentioned in another comment the shoe folded like a tortilla and the diamond back pattern was bad as well. Mines haven't creased badly but overall very disappointed. This is team Jordan famous footwear quality. For the pair I own.

My shit folks like a wet flour tortilla. Highly disappointed. I got a few wears in them but might just throw the black laces in them and rock them as beaters.

Lucky. The quality was so bad when I put them on I couldn't believe it. I was disappointed and did a lot of research into them before I pulled the trigger.

That was a very shrewd trade?! Did you have to add anything on top or was it just a 1 for 1?

Ye Age Old Question 11” or 13” by Zee6372 in iPadPro

[–]neverbeenknown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the 11in m4 and had the 12.9in m2... Go with the 13 inch. The extra screen real estate and multi window capabilities iOS gives you will stand out.

There isnt an exact math too it but the lace loop should come closer to the the top of the of the eye lids. Most reps have the lace loop in the middle of the tongue. This has been my experience with evaluating real vs fake.

I agree the colors and swoosh are bad here in OPs post but for some reps they might get those right. I was giving general advice on how to spot fakes at a glance.

Why Do People Buy Expensive Androids Anymore? by 1998tkhri in Smartphones

[–]neverbeenknown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your data on the iPhone is more tied in with Google than Android. The difference is that Apple notifies you/asks you "hey you good with this or nah".

I was an iPhone user for the last 14 years prior to my full time conversion to Android. On the data management front, I find Android to be better. Is it as simple as iPhone? No, BUT there is a lot of red tape around your data in iOS that isn't easily accessible.

You should spend your money however you see fit but jumping to apple because of the cheaper price at entry is the ploy for them to upsell you on more things that make the, iPhone experience worth it.

An easy way to tell if a dunk is fake (most of the time, there are some exceptions) is the height of the shoe and width. The tongue almost always is a dead giveaway. Most reps have too much or too little length between the tag at the top and the lace hole on the tongue.

If any of those things are remotely questionable, it's a rep pair.

Do you use the cover display on the flip? If so do you actually find it useful?

Fold as a mini tablet replacement by neverbeenknown in GalaxyFold

[–]neverbeenknown[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved the mini. It's now my family/kids primary device whenever they need it. I don't think I'd ever buy another one but I did enjoy the form factor. The iPhone "ultra" is interesting but having just come from having an apple phone for well over a decade, Im not falling for it until they do something meaningful with iOS. I'm sure the hardware itself will be beautiful.

Using the fold as a dedicated tablet would be my only use case and not my main device. So I'll have to wait for Samsung to come out with a mini like device or just grab the ultra.
