    Wearable: can I ask here? Best under $200

    This reply is long overdue, but better late than never. I got the Forerunner 245, which I loved. The good. Light, great display (more on this in a moment), great battery life with about 6 days of average use, accurate GPS, fast charging (and I mean, fast). The display uses transflective...

    PIxel 7 Pro: using a different browser to open Google Feed's links

    Thanks B. Diddy, that's what I did. It works when I open an URL from other apps, but not from Google Feed. Thanks Stanley Kubrick, I think I'll do just that.

    PIxel 7 Pro: using a different browser to open Google Feed's links

    Hi, I got the Pixel 7 Pro, and I installed Opera as I prefer it over Chrome. Is there a way to force the Pixel to open the links from the Google Feed with Opera? It still opens them with Chrome. I could disable Chrome, but I wonder if that might affect some functionality of the phone. Thanks...

    Wearable: can I ask here? Best under $200

    I looked at the Galaxy Watch 4, and despite being a great watch, it has a few downsides for me: the battery life isn't great, it needs full immersion in the Samsung world in terms of apps, registration, and the privacy part doesn't seem too clear. After reading articles, and watching some YT...

    Wearable: can I ask here? Best under $200

    The Amazfit looks interesting indeed. I'm looking at the GTS 4. It doesn't have ECG, though it does use a BioTracker PPG. I'm not clear on whether the ECG are actually useful on wearable or not, it seems it's not accurate. So, I wonder if the BioTracker PPG could be enough. The thing is, on...

    Hi there, I want to buy a wearable to measure the basics such as, oxygen, heart rate, atrial fibrillation, sleep, and so on. I'm on Android, so no Apple watch for me. I thought the new Google Pixel Watch could be a good candidate, but I see there are several drawbacks: short battery life, it...

    Good smartphone with 6.7 or 6.8 screen under $350, $400 max?

    Thanks again for the suggestions. I did use the stylus, but not as mush as I thought I would. I'm sure those Amazon links are gone by now as the promotion is over. That said, today I realized something, and this proves how little I know about phones, though my lack of knowledge doesn't bother...

    Good smartphone with 6.7 or 6.8 screen under $350, $400 max?

    The links were working when I posted them, not sure what happened. I edited the post to update the links, but maybe the URL is changing due to the Amazon Prime deals.

    Good smartphone with 6.7 or 6.8 screen under $350, $400 max?

    Now I can add the reply. smvim Actually, I replaced my first Note 8 after 2 years. The battery died, but I had a warranty that would allow me to get a renewed phone (same model), and so I did. I'm not particularly tied to Samsung, I actually don't find their phones too attractive, maybe the...
