Images of items I have purchased (except trainers [no feet pics])

How do those trade-ins work? If I send in a phone worth £120 and it says get £200 (more?) with the purchase of a pixel, is that £320 total or just £200? Wording is a little bit ambiguous.

They valued my pixel 6 pro at £85, but an extra £200 if I buy a pixel 8 pro. So once I return my old phone, I expect £285 to be paid back. Still waiting for the trade in package though. So currently £649 down. Slightly annoying.

Oh cool, got offered £120 for my Note10+ so I was wondering.

When you send your details, you get an email confirming your trade in. On mine it says £85 + £200 promotion, total £285.

Fair enough. Going with 128GB over 256GB model?

Yep, 128gb, two reasons really. One, I wanted the porcelain colour and only 128gb was available. Secondly, I've only used 28% of my storage on my 128gb 6 pro.

The 256gb is probably the better value at only £60 more though.

more stuff arrived from ALiexpress. No more food clips when i can use this little 50p device to burn a seal into the pack.

Takes a little getting used to through.. too much pressure and they end up being super charged scissors

Some AliExpress canvas to add some colour to a blank bit of wall.

Using a deal through work, I got about 60% off an Oura Ring, so thought I'd give it a go compared to my Whoop.

Annoyingly JL were out of the sizing kit, so I measured my finger circumference and used a guys measurements on Reddit to order a size 13 (the largest) and was imagining having a ring that rolled all around and fall off... but nope, it fits kinda snug. I wouldn't have said I have particularly fat fingers either. I guess if you do, you can put it on your little finger.

I really want to get handheld gaming system but I'm doing my best to wait till they can play 1080p all maxed out and more importantly they start including airjet cooling.

It runs really well and stays quiet and cool. Tbh even 720p running on a 7” screen looks pretty sharp.

I think the next generation of ones with the newer AMD chips will be better but for me this is perfect.

Yeah I had the OLED Steamdeck for about a month, they aren't there yet for me performance wise.

How do you find it?

It's one of those things i really want, but having a Garmin watch which measures all the same things which i wear 24/7 kinda makes it surplus to requirements!

ha no. I rarely eat at my desk.. other than snack bars etc.. Though the mat needs a clean from computer dust, metal clippings, leaking fluids/dyes etc

Ahh, the holding out for the next best thing... just do it.

Happy to oblige

Already there are a couple of things meaning I would likely stick with Whoop.
1) I can broadcast my HR. There have been times I forget my HRM or it just stops working. I can broadcast from my Whoop and my headunit will use that instead.
2) If I go for a walk, Whoop will track my location (as well as HR of course) and sync to Strava. It doesn't look like Oura will track location, just time, steps and HR.

I'm also quite surprised, I have the biggest size and it's quite snug at times.
