The Note 4 has the ****tiest camera of any generation. Especially for low light shots.

Not much of a picture taker. But that does suck. Also hated how the camera actually molds out of the shell. Couldn't stand it on its back.

Anyone preorder an apple watch? Looks like they're sold out of everything
I feel really bad for the idiots who are going to spend $500 on this watch that has been on the market for 3+ years for a lot cheaper

Apple Watch has not gotten great reviews. Some people love it, but there's always a nasty caveat. Verge gave it an overall 7 rating. No one universally loves it even if they say it's the best functioning smartwatch out there. Because battery is really bad. Like makes Android Wear look good bad.

Moto 360 on sale today at Amazon and BestBuy

Seriously. $500? It's about $400 too expensive. I love my Apple phones/tablets, but everything else is absurdly expensive.
I wouldn't pay $200 for the Apple Watch. It's completely dated.
LG G Watch has been on sale for $50 today at AT&T and Cowboom. That's much better bang for your buck than the aWatch.
New moto 360 is in the pipeline. The first gen is gonna start getting cheaper.

2.3 million watches.
That's impressive
Swapped out my HDD for a solid state drive in my laptop and holy **** is there a difference. Couldn't officially time a reboot on it, because my monitor switched to my other PC after the shutdown and by the time I brought it back to the laptop I'm using as a desktop it was already up. I was at 35 seconds from click so yeah that rocks. And it instantly went from the log in screen to the desktop no lag. I finally made the switch because SSD are finally cheap enough. Got a 240 gig for 89 bucks.

This is gonna be a bit of a run on post here.
Awhile ago my girlfriend's grandfather passed. He had a gaming PC (to play some ****ty simulators that run on any intel HD graphics card)
Anyway after swapping in my SSD, getting the GPU drivers, etc. all hooked up, it's pretty badass. I need to fix my windows 8.1 installation at some point but I can live with it now. Loaded my old laptop HD as a secondary to store media and less than necessary things. Just got Skyrim legendary edition for PC. Get some mods loaded on it. And go from there. Really excited for it. It will be one thing closer to me getting rid of my 360. Have a few things keeping it around still but not much after I get FIFA 16 for the one.

Looks like Peeble is RIP
Out of curiosity. what does everyones tech hoard consist of?
I have for entertainment an older LG 42 inch LED tv in the living room and an old 22 incher in the bedroom. the bedroom also has a Roku 3. in the living room I hace a Wii U, 360 and XB1. as well as a Bluray player i dont use anymore.
For mobile I have a Moto X 2014, Moto 360 and Note 8.0.
For computing i have an Acer Chromebook, Surface Pro 2 and a desktop 3rd gen i7 8 gb ram and a meh graphics card.
For upgrades i'm looking at 3. Bedroom TV, want something larger and with more than one HDMI, want a much better graphics card, gonna try to finance that by scrapping my busted dell xps, and I want a better Router. new router and wireless card should improve my pc gaming.

I forgot my headphones, I have some decent Sony MDR-X10, and I have a Blue Yeti microphone I've been playing with on acoustic guitars. At some point I do really want to get a set of high quality audiophile headphones. My desktop has the high quality sound card to utilize it. But I need to see what my earnings will be at my new job first.
How do you like the Urbane?
Also I'll add at the moment I do have a Toshiba laptop, I ditched it for the Surface Pro 2. I'm not sad about that at all. It's such a great device. Especially when I'm doing tech work cause it takes up no space and is lightning fast.

I had a pair of Sony MDR-10BTs that I loved, but upgraded to the Samsung's and have been really happy. I think they sound better than the Parrot Zik's. Once you go wireless it's hard to go back. My wired M50s stay near my desktop despite having a much richer soundstage.
The Urbane is nice, but having owned the Moto 360 I can say it's not much different at all. Nicer screen, beefier internals, maybe a little more sleek -- but Android Wear is Android Wear. I really want the LTE model (only out in Korea so far) because T-Mobile has a sick Smart Watch plan.
I had a Surface Pro 2 and I loved it but could never make it fit. Wasn't an adequate laptop replacement for my purposes (poor battery life) and was too bulky to serve as a tablet. Could also never get used to the 'touch' keyboard that I bought. But it was a beast and I was sad to see her go.
Looking to get a new 4K TV at some point this black friday.
Have a Sony bluetooth sound bar for my TV and music.
Jaybird Bluebuds Bluetooth Headphones (lifting)
Motorola S11-HD Bluetooth Headphones (running)
Samsung Note 4
Moto 360
Not sure If i'm forgetting anything else.

I agree that it's not a great power laptop. I don't use my laptop for that. It's primarily used as a way to browse the web from my couch and remote tech support. I was debating between the Surface 2 or a small and powerful 2 in 1, but because of Staples having one go clearance and a coupon I got it for like 200 and some bucks, which the 2 in 1 I was looking at was the Zenbook 13 inch which was gonna set me back close to a grand. I got an i5 and 128 GB SSD, I was looking at 3 times that for the zen book. Then ordered the type cover for 30 bucks from Newegg. Only gripe I have, I wish the windows on-screen keyboard supported predictive text. It makes it easier to correct a mistake and I imagine it would be a simple coding fix.

ALso I don't get the draw of the Steam Machine. The base ALienware steam machine is 450 bucks, i3 4 gigs of ram, un-named NVidia GeForce graphics card, it's not a bad machine, but for only a little more, you could build a much better machine.
I priced it out for my girlfriend's brother, I could build him a PC for about 1500 bucks that would come with an i7 GHz processor, R9 GPU, at least 8 gigs of ram, and more than enough power supply to support additional fans if he wants to overclock. I think Steammachines will have a niche, in the person who uses their PC for gaming only but doesn't have the desire to build and especially not the desire to upgrade said machine.
