No hate, but I really dislike these cases for watches. They just make it look like a toy.
Does a watch really need protection? Unless you like the aesthetic I guess.
For me it's like people wearing a ring or another piece of jewellery and sticking plastic casing over it. 😐
I use cases because I want my watch / gadgets fully protected from when I'm training, gardening, faffing with my cars etc... I do not like damaged goods
And because I do stupid stuff like this for fun... 😂

Haha great video man!
Now I understand the casing 😁😁
Yeah. It's just to preserve it and stop crap getting into the watch too as I use chalk etc...
If I'm out and about I tend to remove it though
Has anyone had issues with nusic\audiobooks etc randomly pausing when using headphones? I have Sony wf-1000xm4's currently it started on Friday when I was on a plane fixed it by manually turning Bluetooth off and on again via settings, restart did nothing.
I Thought it was sorted but as I am 4 hours into a 5 hour delay now, I listened to a shortish WhatsApp voice note and same thing happened. It's a tad annoying 😂. Sometimes it lasts 3\4's of a song sometimes 5 seconds. Then it unpauses automatically.

I have tried a few different buds with the phone so far no issues. I will keep a close eye on it. I'm usually testing while at the gym and phone calls only.Has anyone had issues with nusic\audiobooks etc randomly pausing when using headphones?

Well I will say this as an Apple guy. I really had a belief system that when Apple rolled out Dark icons for Dark Mode, that by the time the RC came out, every app would conform and change. But I have close to 30 apps that still don't change.
Yeah I know, first world problems. But this is something I would expect from Android, not from Apple. Gotta play it fair all around. Bad look for Apple.

Upgraded this year’s iPhone

Haha I think that the new wallpapers are one of the things listed as "new" for this year's iPhone.Upgraded this year’s iPhone
"New wallpapers"
Along with "all new design" (which did make me lol). Plus "new button".
And 20 mins on the chip as there was nothing else to actually talk about. 😅🥱
Yeah that was bad. Even for me, I said I wasn't going to upgrade this year but figured Apple's marketing would woo me. Nope. Not even touching the 16 Pro Max.
Am sure there's lots justifying the "upgrade" to be able to use the "new" video capture features, of which precisely no one other than content creators will use.
But hey, people could say the same about the Pixel 8 to 9 Pro, but at least they actually look different and have had improvements (screen, battery) etc.
The non Pro, as per last year too, is still the better buy for anyone wanting an iPhone. Just a shame it's 60hz.
For sure. From what I've read, it looks like the Pixel 9 Pro really improved over the 8. That looks like a really solid upgrade. I haven't had a Pixel since the 3 or 4, I think. I can't remember, lol.
I feel like the last 5 years, the odd number iPhones have offered some really solid upgrades and the even numbers haven't.
Developers haven’t been allowed to update their apps yet. That starts on September 16. The only icon changes you are seeing are ones made by Apple, not developers.
I don't think that's true. Most 3rd party apps have changed to Dark Mode, but I have about 30 that haven't.
Man I kinda wish Google kept the Bay with the pixel 9 series. Apple did a great job with the colours on the base 16 this year.
color
The new colors are one area Apple excelled this year but otherwise, nothing noteworthy IMO. Most of the significant updates seem to be software related, which is fine. It’s just a little sad when for the first time, I have zero compulsion to upgrade my iPhone hardware.
Careful: Google's version does not capture sound and is lower res. I really miss live photos from iOS.
i think you need another pair airpods and pixel buds....No case for watch but I'm not doing manual work lol
