OT: Avalounge: What happens in Vegas...

I have the Google Pixel, and while it does have some decent features, the battery life is unimpressive, and that was really important to me. It was one of the very first models so MAYBE the ones a year later are better, but I was disappointed by it.

Good to know. Definitely a key spec for me as well.

My friend has been happy with his new Huawei P20 Pro and its battery life. Apparently Huaweis aren't allowed to the US market or something.

No one claimed he had taste, must be a British thing.

For what it's worth I had good luck with Motorola phones, my last two were Motorolas and I plan to go back to them after this. Battery life was solid, it declined eventually of course but the software always gave out before the battery did.

I've heard rave reviews about the moto Z play battery, just an absolute tank. Like 2?or so years old now and a bit odd as it has a magnetic back for adding on attachments like a camera and extra battery packs.

Hey all, I'm considering buying season tickets this year, anyone know if they offer payment plans that run throughout the season or is that usually if you buy them earlier in the summer?

Any thoughts on the top-range Android phones. Gonna have to replace my Sony Z3+ from a couple of years ago. P20 Pro? Is this the worst time or how are the cycles with different manufacturers?

That's so weird.
I have a Sony Z3 Compact phone I bought in 2015, and before that I had a used HTC I bought from my brother.
Anyway, I am wondering the same thing as my earphone-jack is messed up and the phone cannot recognize any earphones anymore.
I am thinking of the new Sony small one, as the phone I have now has been perfect for me.
Hate the bigger phones, so having one I can navigate through only using one hand is essential (meaning my thumb can reach all corners of the screen while keeping the phone in my hand. And yes, the same hand as the thumb I was talking about).

See, I would too, but I feel like if I don't get one with flagship specs. then what am I doing. Which is stupid, because phones now have like a two-year life cycle.

I do not use my phone enough to warrant a big purchase.
I want a phone I can surf on while riding the bus/train, listen to music and actually use as a phone (i.e. calling).
So I want a small phone, which will last, and which is easy to use. For flagships, I think Sony is not the way to go. There are better phones out there, at least value for money than their big one.
My friend has a phone that is made by a new company and he says it is amazing. Too bad I cannot remember the company at all.

Yeah, I'm not liking the top Sony phone right now.

Yeah they do. You can pay them off off over 5,8,10 months or something along those lines.

SF to PHL to FL to PHL to TOR to LV to PHL to SF to PHL... mapped out the next month of travel. Driving the Florida legs to see family.

Manchester Orchestra.

Yeah, I’m a lurker. Don’t @ me.

 

[Ceremony]

Precisely. As if that fact is concomitant with having poor taste in music.

 

[UncleRisto]

Here Comes Jasper is such an underrated band.

But that fishy-looking girl is local music.

Did you go and see her live before she was famous?

Why does that matter?
