    Yup, I was hoping the same, when's the next event?

    Any idea when the Apple Watch 2 will be released?

    M3. V8. Saloon.

    When I was running 2 cars, I had the M5 manual and the 330d auto, now I'm down to 1 car again, DSG is a nice mix IMO, but suits the Golf well

    M3. V8. Saloon.

    My M5 was manual, my Golf is DSG, I like & appreciate both gearboxes, but I'd probably get a manual M3 as well TBH, although I'd not turn down a DCT M3 either.

    M3. V8. Saloon.

    One of the first things I did in my M5 was change to a Clubsport / ZF gear knob, much better IMO

    M3. V8. Saloon.

    Keep going... The E39 M5 was born in 1999 and the E46 M3 in 2000, both still very fast, very good looking cars today, BMW nailed both these cars!

    M3. V8. Saloon.

    This, the current turbocharged M3 & M4 sound w**k in comparison, I just cannot get excited about them, the older normally aspirated versions sound much better, even when you get an aftermarket exhaust on the newer cars. :down: The E39 M5 has masses of low end grunt and did struggle for...

    M3. V8. Saloon.

    It's not 'gutless', but compared to say an E39 M5, it's got much less low end grunt and has a more dramatic top end, totally different character and needs to be revved to exploit the performance, not really comparable to a boosted 6 pot to be fair, the V8 sounds infinitely better IMO.

    M3. V8. Saloon.

    That was one thing I never really liked on my E90 either, the reverse section stands out like mad IMO

    Only just noticed this, very nice :up:

    @MarkX there's another firmware update, version 14R just come out

    The Apple Watch Thread

    @MarkX Check the firmware on your watch, the Game stock must be older and mine needed an update, it's done via the phone app

    Bargain! :up: Might take mine back to Argos LOL Link for anyone else >>> http://www.game.co.uk/en/alcatel-onetouch-smartwatch-black-539961

    How does the Pebble Steel do sleep monitoring then, there's no heart rate sensor AFAIK? Agreed, the Apple Watch 2 needs good battery life, meant to be out this summer, so info & pics will start getting leaked, will then decide if I want one or not, but the battery on my 6S is superb compared to...

    Had to charge it last night, so that was 3 full days of use, with 2 nights of sleep monitoring as well, pretty good for the first full charge and with me not messing with it so much now I might get another day.

    I bought the Alcatel One Touch watch, as per my previous post >>> http://watch.alcatelonetouch.com/ The strap is not 'just' a strap on this watch, it contains the USB charging connection and NFC point, but the black & red rubber strap is surprisingly comfortable, it's been on my arm pretty much...

    The Apple Watch Thread

    Aside from the music controls, which aren't great, the rest of the watch I like, gives me notifications (vibrates) for various things (email, Facebook, Whatsapp, calendar, etc), health & sleep monitoring, camera control, customisable faces (via the phone app), bright colour screen, etc, I've...

    Picked one up from Argos on my way home, currently on charge, will play with it over the weekend and if it's crap it will go back, but reading a few owner reviews, as a basic smart watch for £79 most people seem happy with it.

    The Apple Watch Thread

    Just looked & felt dated and yes I know you can install the timeline OS now, but I think I want a touch screen, colour, etc, so whilst I agree it's great for the money, for me personally I wasn't keen. That's the thing about the Alcatel watch, excellent battery life, but it's basic, might get...

    The Apple Watch Thread

    Just not for me, it's quite basic, low res monochrome screen, quite chunky, wasn't really keen on it personally. There was an Alcatel one next to it for the same price that 'looked' much better >>> Reviews are average (aside from good battery life), it lacks apps & functionality, but again so...

    iPhone 6S

    I've not scratched one either, but my phones live in cases & screen protectors, hence why my 5S was like brand new after 2 years. Just these glass screen protectors are crap and the edges chip in your pocket, I only have coins in the same pocket, no keys.

    iPhone 6S

    Glass or plastic?
  27. Rich-D

    iPhone 6S

    So, these tempered glass screen protectors look & feel great, however they do still get marks & scratches and I've now damaged my 2nd one, the edges seem to chip/break, which sucks! Might just go back to an old fashioned clear plastic film, never had issues with them, they last much better.

    Star Wars Battlefront

    I got this for my birthday, was on offer for about £36 online, so decided to give it a go, after being all hyped up from watching The Force Awakens and feeling all nostalgic. So far I like it, played a lot of the single player missions/challenges at first, speeder bikes, X-Wings, etc... which...

    Xbox One external hard drive

    Another vote for the Toshiba Canvio, I got the 1TB for £34.99 a few weeks ago and it's great, loads faster than the internal HDD! http://uk.ign.com/articles/2015/06/11/the-best-xbox-one-external-hard-drive For £49 the 2TB one is an absolute steal, I might actually buy one and keep the 1TB for...
