VioletBlue
Reading the reviews from websites like Cnet, it seems like Samsung hasn't found the formula that really works for laptops. Galaxy Book S seems to have a positive response, but the others are a bit too premium and all over the place.
VioletBlue commented on Helpful extra screen
Tedddy
I have the same question as well. But if it works well, it's really nice that you can have more screens even for your portable devices. 
VioletBlue
Then again, having too many screens may be confusing as you have to move your eyes and head so much! That's why I think such a complicated task is best worked at home, but sometimes you can't help your schedule.

Gaming phones always look strange and a little ugly to me, though that's probably the result of a sturdy design. The light colors look more eye-catching than the dark one. China makes a lot of interesting products these days.

I'd like to see them try. I don't think we have more variation in terms of operating system, but that also shows how easy-to-use Android (and iOS in some sense) is. Watching someone challenges that spot will be interesting.

I will wait and see if the problem is really fixed. If it is really like what they said, that the problem of screen breaking is solved, then I will change my mind on it I guess.
VioletBlue
It would be great if they can fix all of the issues, though I feel like this won't be the last time. Software issue is relatively easier to handle than hardware errors, so I'd still wait before getting this kind of phone.

Won't the tablet be unstable when the stylus is stored like that? Maybe they can move the space a bit downwards, so the stylus will lift the tablet equally like a holder when it's not in use. Well, it's just a theory right now, so we'll see how... See more

@Apocalips I felt the same way too when I first read the article, but if it works like what Verypunny said, then we have nothing to worry about. Now I'm just unsure if double cameras are worth it. Assuming most of its owners would probably own... See more

I also love the outdoors and sometimes it is easy to forget to carry the essentials that help us to maximize the experience. On the other hand, spending some days outdoors doesn't mean cutting oneself off technology!
VioletBlue
Spending time outdoors usually means detaching ourselves from modern tools, but I agree that some can help to improve the experience without taking away our focus. I'd probably leave the earphones behind but take everything else in that list.
VioletBlue commented on AirPods 3 Coming Soon
Gaines
Same with me. I don't think the new one is very appealing. I haven't used AirPods for a long time already. It seems to me that they are not as good as before, especially when there are many other options out there.

I feel that being waterproof isn't very groundbreaking for earbuds. I don't know many people who use their electronic devices on rainy days or in the bathroom; for the later, a wireless speaker or just playing things straight from the phone is... See more

Well, as much I am not a gamer, I like this idea of products being tailored for a specific section of the population. I know a few gamers who will love such a browser.

Swiping the keyboard will help with fatigue, especially when mobile gaming.  I'm glad the update is available for older phones too, but I wonder how it will affect their battery life.  
VioletBlue
I think it's natural if newer updates will make older phones go slower as the chips aren't as strong as the new ones. If the features are great enough, I'd say it's a valid reason to upgrade your phones. I'm not big on swiping keyboards or use... See more

Phoenix
Call me shocked!  Didn't Samsung learn from Apple's debacle that your smartphone's battery life had better be on point?  People use their phones 24-7 now it seems.  Nobody wants to have to charge their phone midday.  
VioletBlue
I bring my power bank everywhere, but it is annoying if you have to use it so often in a day. It's probably a worthy compromise for other series but the Note. I don't see taking off well, but maybe I'm wrong.
