Yep, Japan uses a 2 prong plug the same as the US.

I've got two of the 67W Zyron chargers and they've been good so far (I haven't heard of any issues with the 67W version). I did have an…

I paid $164 when they were the only option available at the start of the year and kind of share the same sentiments - but it's largely due…

Plenty on Aliexpress that support Google Find Hub - I've bought quite a few (and probably should work on a review at some point) but am yet…

It's more to do with the shutter speed used whilst capturing, not the framerate of the footage itself. i.e. I set my shutter speed to…

Have an Action 5 Pro that I got for a few trips and love it. Built like a tank, stabilization is great (as long as your frame rate is high…

Better - I haven't found one. I've switched to the Keychron M6 but you have to manually toggle between infinity scrolls and ratcheted like…

It's not a $10 mouse - I'd say 5 years is ok for a premium mouse. But good quality switches are rated for 10+ years of use (which Logitech…

Prior to my MX Master 2/3, I'd never had a mouse fail so the fact a $100+ mouse couldn't last 3-4 years is pretty bad.

Personally, I've never had an issue with non-rubber coated mice in the past

That was the same flaw I had as the rubber softens and jams the button. I originally got upgraded to the MX Master 3 under warranty but the…

The rubber is absolutely garbage and caused issues on the MX Master 2 and 3. That said, it almost feels like planned obsolescence at this…

Same here - got about 3 years. Rubber started degrading around the 2 year mark and had issues with the scroll wheel not freely spinning.…

Their sound signature is what put me off. I found the 4's way too bassy. Nice app though.

I'd pull the kids out of school and save the $$$ on tickets if the kids are younger than Year 10 as school holiday prices are insane. Tour…

Still an ongoing situation - will update when I have an outcome

I bought an Action Pro 5 for a travel camera as didn't want to worry about the fragility of the Pocket 3. And it does a great job with the…

Also probably true!

Just means you don't need to plug it in - I think it's just purely convenience. I personally like the option.

Sony said it'll need a new panel so about $2k - these things are intentionally uneconomical to repair.

Australian Consumer Law is not law? Is that your expert legal opinion?

Sometimes companies have faith in their products. I'll always buy Peak Design products as they come with a lifetime warranty and I've never…

Brand new with a discount from the store - think it was just as the new models came out

I spoke with them and they've said to send the Letter of Demand and once the timeframe lapses (i.e. 10 days) to call them back and they'll…

Thanks for the reply. Consumer Affairs is our Department of Fair Trading. Letter of Demand is where I'm at - customer service won't give me…

ACL doesn't have a definition - as it depends on the product, it's price, positioning - i.e. budget vs premium. And whilst "'thinking'…

Ok, will give that a try too.

ACL says a "reasonable time" - I don't think many would say buying a $3K TV every 3 years is reasonable.

Well, ATO says to depreciate a TV over 5-8 years (depending on use) and Choice says 7 years. Panasonic also had a VCAT case where 8 years…

Hi, curious if anyone else has had success with Sony customer support and them honouring their obligations under Australian Consumer Law.…
