Does anyone have any third party Apple Watch band suggestions? I love the Apple ones but wonder if there's any third party ones that people enjoy as much if not more.

 

i get those demographics are the people they were made for. but, like, aren’t there PCs with very similar specs for muuuuch cheaper? i have brand loyalty for apple and get not wanting to have to switch to PC, but god damn.

 

Probably the people who aren’t into modular configurations and don’t mind having everything included in package (display mouse keyboard etc)

A modular Mac Pro is on the way but obviously no one knows when

 

I honestly do not know if the PC alternate is cheaper but from what I have read and seen from people who know is that the base model at $5k is a really good deal for the type of power and speed you are getting

- the iMac Pro is worth every penny specs wise. If you price out a similarly specced PC you would overshoot by a lot.
- I still think it's too much for a non-modular computer

 

I want this.

All black everything.

 

you're kidding yourself if you don't think that -- despite everything the machine has going for it -- the machine being black isn't the best thing about it.

 

okay 5 grand actually isn’t enough now. you’re right.

 

once you go black, you won't even notice that 5k lack'

I'm sorry.

Just swapped my iPhone 7 in for an SE. I've always liked the smaller phones more and didn't realize how much lighter the SE is either. Really happy with the new one.

 

Whelp, shattered my 6s to the point of near non-usability this morning, but at least now I got to order a X

256gb space gray

 

Will definitely check these out. I've been looking at the Clockwork Synergy bands too. I've heard good things about those and there's a ton of options.

 

Ordered a wireless charging pad, tempered glass screen protector (something I'm normally not fond of, but I've shattered both my last iPhones), and bought a case. Tried AirPods at the Apple store and they are so tempting.

 

get them

 

i just ordered some. Can't wait to try them.

 

I got a wireless charging pad with my phone to use at work because I haven't made the plunge to bluetooth headphones, and I've still yet to use it lol (just an indication of the battery life on the X)

 

Anyone have any suggestions on a Wireless charging pad?

 

I asked for an Anker one for xmas

 

How is Face ID vs Touch ID? I love Touch ID.

 

I hardly notice it's even on. It's basically like not having a passcode. I think it's better in virtually every way and Touch ID feels old and antiquated on my iPad now.

 

I find it frustrating at times, but hardly notice it because it’s so good at the other times. Specifically, it’s very frustrating at work where my phone sits on my desk. I have to unnaturally lean over or just pick the phone up to view a text. Apple Pay, app purchases, password auto-fill and pretty much anything that uses Face ID while I’m already using the phone are ridiculously seamless though. My review after using it for a month would probably be I could take it or leave it.
