Decisions

Where do you sell?

Well, barring flogging it to a friend or associate I guess eBay would be the easiest. Depends a bit on where you are, my wife has used Facebook Market Place successfully in the past but be wary of scammers and phishing attempts.

I've been carrying two phones for years. A work issued iPhone and my personal Android phone. Preferring the native Google/Android experience I've upgraded yearly from Nexus through Pixel models just for fun and the experience. Also within that timeframe I tried various Samsungs and currently enjoy an S25 Ultra. With both platforms well matured I still prefer Android over iOS for its enhanced functionality.

I have avoided the temptation of an Apple Watch or any other, as I have a passion for analog wristwatches that I am not interested in giving up.

That said I'm thoroughly committed to macOS and find my 13” M1 MacBook Air nicely portable and my 16” M2 MacBook Pro an ideal main computer for my workflow. A long time Apple customer I appreciate what they've done although I find their "Apple knows best" philosophy a bit much.

A bit off topic but I have a question about the A55, will a smart tag 2 work with this phone as it does not have the UWB chip in it

well....you do have 2 arms and hands.....

Now it’s modern to wear a watch around your ankle so you could easily wear 4 watches😂

Oh I believe that's actually an ankle monitor for house arrest, haha.

Well I am having the problem since is switched to Samsung that I am missing my little iPhone SE3 and over the last few days I have had my SIM card in both but keep switching back and forth, mainly because of the integration of my iPad and Apple Watch.

This is a hard decision of which one to go with and I can’t decide so I might have to sell one of the phones to make it a permanent solution.

This is a first world problem but it’s hard.

I don't understand why this is an issue if you already have an iPad and an Apple Watch. Bite the bullet and get a Mac as well as a pair of AirPods, too. They all work seamlessly together now.

The last thing I want us any kind of traditional computer whether it's a windows or mac machine.
I use a computer for work from 9 to 5 and it's the last thjng I want to use when I am on my downtime.

I already own airpods and use them with my iPad.

From time to time, I have been quite tempted to switch over to Android because of how lackluster iOS and the iPhone as a device have been year over year. Do they still make Android phones with SD card slots? or was that a pre-2020 thing?

The Samsung Ultra (whatever they ended up folding the Note line into, RIP) and the Pixels 6-8 seemed really cool imo, always wanted to try them out.

My wife and I are getting out of the Apple Watch phase, they are just becoming too much of a hassle to have to charge almost every 12hrs just for something that at the very least needs to just be able to tell time accurately and on demand. My Casio does that without needing to be charged so i guess that's one chain broken in the Apple anchor lol

My Galaxy A55 has an SD card in it, the phone itself has 128gb and I have a 512 card in it to handle all my media, music and family photos which I have quite a fair amount.

Don't think any of the S range have these slots anymore

I agree on your thinking about the apple watch as I have gave up on mine and went back to using traditional mechanical watches as I have a decent collection of them, some of them date back to 1974 and all work perfect and keep good time. They dont need charging and don't need software updates.
