Need a new phone

[Scrumhalf]

Total piece of cake. Go to fi.google.com and watch the video if you need to. But it was even easier than that. New number sets up automatically.

I'm interested in how easy fi is at getting setup.

Unpacked, installed SIM, powered on and connected to WiFi. It immediately started updating Android. Sweet! Gonna have dinner while it updates the OS.

Phone is really sleek. Pretty much same size as my Moto X.

Down the road from Vacaville. I guess they just name the towns after whatever they farm over there.

Yea right next to Orangevale CA. I'm guessing they grow or once grew lots of citrus around here. Lol

[Scrumhalf]

Citrus Heights?

Sounds fruity!

LoL phone won't let me forget that it's coming.

The USB type C connector/charger the phone comes with is interesting. It will charge the 5X much faster then standard USB. The down side is that normal USB cables will not work with the 5x. So if you leave your 5x charging cable at home on a business trip your fucked.

Ive had good luck with Amazon reviews and even done a bunch myself for others to read. I always check reviews for any consistent problems before buying products anymore. Just like steroid reviews it is easy to tell if one is made up.

Of the links you guys posted, the one chuck posted has by far the most amount of amazon reviews (over 500) and a almost 5 star rating. The ones turbo posted have 100 something reviews and a slightly lower rating. The ones scrum posted only has 17 reviews.

So here's the question, how much merit to I put in amazon reviews? lol

I'm sure those are good ones for what you need. And btw, reviews can be bought. Hence why some people quickly state they're not giving a great review in the exchange of them being compensated

I had the same problem, except it wasn't sweat that bothered me. It was the fact that it would be in my pocket and always got in the way when I had the DBs balanced on my thighs and ready to kick it up to a incline or shoulder press position.

I got this one. Works pretty well in the gym and it's only $17.
