  1. There is quite a lot going on up the top of the phone, including a microphone. Regardless, their trade in offers are insulting. Edit: Above not iPhone 8, ooops. My bad.

    Formula 1...

    But he’s still British? They play the anthem on the podium :-) Considering his achievements knighthood was inevitable don’t you think? I’m surprised it’s happened so early perhaps.
  3. That was 2020. Not sure if it was. Multi year deal.
  4. I have one or three myself..... #blush
  5. Agree. Even with fans etc. I definitely feel I wreck my kit more indoors the out. And hydration is tricky too.
  6. There was a Zwift Event that did the 500km in one shot. Had two mates back in SA who did it, one bailed at just under 300km and the other finished it. Bloody fools !!
  7. This! AppleCare gives two full watch replacements each year. So any damage and get a new one in 48 hours. You not investing in a “timepeace” with a tech watch. It should hold no sentimental value either.
  8. Absolutely loved it. An uncompromising artist of speed.
  9. For me in UAE, if a shop has the “contactless” option I select that and then use either ApplePay, GarminPay or Tap my Card.
  10. He’s going to look SO good with only one fork leg.. [emoji123][emoji106]
  11. It’s a known issue on Pro’s assembled before August 2020. Considering my last replacements were in August I’ve probably still got bad “batch”. Will replace again once shops return to post Christmas craziness. The boys both have the normal AirPods bought at different times. But maybe just unlucky. Have had no other issues across dozens of other Apple kit.
  12. Please make sure you have AppleCare active on them. Because if they anything like AirPods and AirPod Pro’s you will need it. My Pro’s have been replaced twice and now the third left showing same issue once again (cracking in NC or Transparency) and both my sons have had their AirPods replaced due to volume issues in one of the pods.. The Max look and feel better from what I’ve seen (Apple Store Dubai Mall) and are nice to touch and wear. Sound quality didn’t “blow me away” but they were good for sure. I’m a big Apple fanboy. But for now I’m staying away from anything they brand “AirPod”. Give us an update in 6 months, keen to see how they holding up. And keen to see how you find them traveling as they don’t fold much.
  13. When the wind blows in the sandpit it’s k@k.....
  14. We use an App called OurGroceries (free version). Been perfect for many years!
  15. Looks nicer on my wrist in a suit or on ZOOM. (When compared to a Fenix with a bright blue strap) Ease of notifications AND quick response to them. Ease of timer for quick breaks and reminders All my shopping awards programs barcodes. Shopping lists. All my bank cards via Apple Pay. I can do full shops without wallet or even pulling phone out. Big advantage now with masks where phone doesn’t unlock easily. One quick swipe to a watch screen that has all the time zones for my colleagues across the globe. Weights next to nothing compared to Fenix so far more comfortable in the office on a PC. Music control automatically when playing from phone, CarPlay etc. Seamless playing of podcasts and audiobooks when having a walk etc. No phone required. Total integration with iPhone. It just works..
  16. Owning both a Fenix 6 and Apple Watch 6 I would not try compare the two. As it’s like comparing a Road Bike to a Mountain Bike. While they both in practice do “the same thing” they take on the task from opposite angles. The Fenix is a sports watch that has smart functionality. The Apple Watch is a smart watch that has sports functionality. Monday to Friday I’m Apple Watch for work and social. But for sports, it’s Fenix all the way for anything more serious than a walk.

    Who remembers?

    THE original multi tool !!
  18. Please don’t ever ask to borrow a “star” screwdriver from me. I don’t have any of those. Phillips, Torx, Hex, Flat, Slotted amongst others I can try help but star, sorry you need a telescope for that.
  19. And only a cyclist knows what a “bomb” is. Without causing a bloody panic....
  20. Probably because it was such a horrible experience it can’t be forgotten. (I speak from experience)
  21. Shades or Sunnies. When in fact you are wearing Sunglasses.
  22. Chamois when the reality is 99% have never ridden with a pair of chamois padded cycling shorts.
