REI Garage sales make me all   Salomon Quest 4D 2 GTX's.   Camelbak Eddy & Kleen Canteen 27oz.  Chums Zipquix Zipper Pulls - Package of 5. Earlier last week I also took a trip to Tactical Tailor's remodel opening in Lakewood & picked up some stuff.   McNett Tactical Ultra Compact Microfiber Towel & Camo Form. Reusable Heavy-Duty Fabric Wrap in MultiCam.  3M Peltor Combat Arms Earplugs. When the yellow end is inserted into the ear it allows regular noise to pass thru & only blocks high-end decibel levels, while the green end provides continuous passive protection at an NRR rating of 22 dB.

I believe they're in the top 5 of the biggest Mobile phone manufactureres in the world. Besides that i have read a bunch of reviews of this and the Mi4 and both are highly regarded. I really like it. It's like if Apple made an Android phone. Quality wise it feels like an iPhone 6 Plus to hold, the custom version of Android it's running is missing the App Drawer, so it's a lot like the iOS home screen in that sense (But with Widgets) They do weekly updates though their own OTA app and you can root it by going into a menu and hitting a button. And it costs less than half of a Samsung Note 5.. ... No stylus.

Probably the same as every phone. When you first get it When new = lasts 3 days without a charge. 1 year later = dies every 5 hours

very good choice even if it isn't a bosch. I have a Makita circular saw from the 80's that still works perfectly and is a pleasure to use. Makita is a lifetime investment imo.

Cool, just making sure it can compete with US mainstream manufacturers. Content:  My 3220 just doesn't have the balls for triple 1080p iRacing with a full field of cars. This should last for quite a while, so I should only need to get video card upgrades every so often.

Yup, big brands and knockoff brands can be manufactured in the same area, but they often are spec'ed with different levels of component quality and QA. It sounds like this brand has similar finish to the brands commonly found in US pockets.

My garage is a mix of Makita and Ryobi. If I weren't looking at them when I use them, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between them. Makita is good, but they're not the huge step above everything else people treat them as.

Also, Ryobi is poo poo; the circular sander I bought to redo some large furniture crapped out halfway through the third piece.

Because the cable is not going to be the bottleneck there. I have gone three years with no disk drive at all, so it's not going to get very heavy use anyway.

I have their sander and I've used the heck out of it with no problems. I have a circular saw too, but I haven't used it all that much. If I were using it a lot more often, I'd have gotten a better saw though.

i have a monster cable i got as a gift and it's my only right angle to straight cable so it gets used a lot!!. it's also nice that if it ever breaks down i can just get a new one. i wish it wasn't gold plated though, that poo poo is counterproductive

My favorite thing about the Beats headphone company is how they hosed over Monster in their deal somehow. Monster got really angry when Apple bought Beats for 3 billion.
