Almost every conversation I

I used Reader as my main device for a week. A workaround incoming phone calls.

I'll preface this by saying this device works for me because of my lifestyle rather than the device specs.

I am on a career break til next year and I've been spending a lot of my time at home. Classic me, I fill every moment with something to do which involved a lot of internet use. Looking at scre

Hello,
BF deals are close and I wonder: X300 PRO vs. X200 Ultra vs. wait for global X300 Ultra / Xiaomi 17 Ultra in 2026?

En plus, elle se trompe de sorte. C’est même pas la venu 3s qu’elle montre, c’est la vivoactive! (Gênant)

Fenix 8 from POV of apple watch user

Hi, I’ve put together some notes on my experience using the new Fenix 8 (47mm AMOLED). I switched from apple watch S7 (41mm) and I am familiar with Venu 3s, so that’s what I will be comparing it to. Disclaimer: I have technical background so I may be a little bit more critical than average user. Eve

Fitness trackers/smart watches with immediate heart rate alerts?

I have a Garmin Venu 3S. Switched from an Apple watch and it seems to alert way quicker. I feel my heart rate increasing a little and a couple moments later the watch will confirm it, i get a notification asking if something is wrong/relax reminder. I bought the watch in the first place to better mo

Garmin or Amazfit?

I was an Apple Watch user for years and said enough I went to the garmin venu 3s , it took some getting used to the app compared to Apple, but $400 for smartwatch when I’m never gonna be a hardcore training athlete is craziness! Just got the active 2 premium and for way less I’ve got the best budget
