    Intel 545 or Crucial MX500 or Samsung 860 Evo?

    I picked up the 545s for my new Intel NUC from Microcenter since they had it on sale... Dunno why, but I still use the Intel G2&G3 drives in my rigs. They're low on storage, speed not the best, but who cares. Works stable for years.

    So what is the deal with display calibration /sRGB?

    I just received the phone and enabled the sRGB mode and it does look terrible, very greenish I would say.

    nexus 5x bugs... anyone have these issues? why can't google make a phone that does the basics right

    I have learned long ago about Nexus devices being half baked. Nexus 4 - Great device coming from the Samsung Galaxy SII. Really changed my view about the stock android. Nexus 5 - Just a meh device that couldn't get into it. Popping speaker, unpleasant hand feel. 2013 Moto X - Best device...

    Need new phone, considering Pixel

    I am also the 2013 Moto X user. Unfortunately, the battery has been acting up since the July and the phone became unusable. I've been running it for almost 3 years.. I've purchased the Nexus 6p since then and already put it for sale. The size is just not for me.. I've been eyeing the OnePlus 3...

    Ordered the Xperia X Compact.

    I would love to try this phone and most likely will. Just watched a few videos and really like it. It's just a damn expensive and thick.

    I think I'm done with the V10....

    I agree with you. I don't like my 6p either. It's too damn big and such a basic phone. Too much of a hassle to carry around in a pocket. It's only good laying on the desk and watching videos. The smaller Pixel looks like a good phone, but definitely not paying such a premium price for it. I...

    What was your best/worst phone/tablet purchase?

    I am going to say the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy SII. First smartphone and first disappointment. Lagged out of the box, archaic touchwiz, etc. Received one update, but I rooted and played with different roms anyways. The build quality was very good, though. Bought the Nexus 4 later on and it was...

    Nexus 6 vs 5X?

    The Nexus 6 is a better phone. Faster performance, better build quality, better speakers, stronger vibrator, amoled screen. The 5X advantages are better camera, fp scanner, and size factor if you favor a smaller phone.

    For those who have the Nexus 5X..

    All I can say that the 5X is below the Moto E in terms of build quality. It is also below the Moto Nexus 6 in every possible way. I returned the phone. The performance simply sucked compared to a Moto Nexus 6. The 5X might be one of the worst Nexus phones.

    T-Mobile USA's free international data roaming and texting is awesome

    Thanks for the info. So the device must also be capable to make calls/receive over wifi, right? Seems like my Moto can't do any calls over the wifi.

    Is MotoX Pure 2015 the best phone ever made?

    I am still on 2013 Moto X. Just give me the 4th gen Moto G...

    T-Mobile USA's free international data roaming and texting is awesome

    I am gonna be travelling soon as well. So making/receiving calls back to the US is $0.20/minute, correct?

    Dell XPS 13

    Check the Dell outlet as well. They've had a few, but sold quickly.

    Dell XPS 13

    The FHD model of the XPS doesn't even have the touch screen. Only the QHD+.

    Dell XPS 13

    I had the XPS 13 i3/4GB model. The battery life and the build quality were the best thing about it. Note: One thing to consider when spending closer to a $1k for a laptop that mostly likely you would want a touch screen, even though you hardly use it. After using a SP4 for a while I would not...
