Not 100% but I know that leaving discharged batteries in a device can cause leakage but I've seen batteries leak still in the packet as…

I'm replacing all my remote batteries to avoid leakage. Rather charge the battery once a year than deal with leaks.

You'd like to think that but in reality, security is seen as a cost center and rarely gets invested in. I wouldn't believe that any company…

Same here. Even once equalizing them, they always sound overly bassy and muddy. I love the quality of the ANC but the audio quality is…

The Momentum also has Aptx which is important if you want to use a Bluetooth adapter on a plane, etc. Also, and I know it's subjective, but…

Yep. XM5 also had lots of reports of the hinge breaking early due to poor design. On Reddit, lots of users are complaining and then say…

Agree. The XM4's are pretty solid (apart from their bass-heavy sound signature which I found incredibly disappointing even after…

Should be able to source replacement parts online if you can do a little soldering.

I've got one of these and it's pretty impressive - seems to be a generic design that's on a lot of these sites. That said, it won't compare…

Had one for 4 years and still going strong. Mopping is a bit meh but does a good job overall.

Yep, can use as its the same mount. Works fine - just disable PBO in the BIOS if you can't stand the fans ramping up.

Only the price Aliexpress charged.

Nah, default cooler was fine (as it was on my 2700x) - main issue is that PBO causes the CPU temps to spike occasionally resulting in the…

Definitely a great upgrade. I did it and got a noticable uplift in performance plus it runs cooler (that said I did get a better cooler…

I got one last time and it was like new. Came in a proper tray and wrapped well in a heap of foam and bubble wrap. No bent pins or…

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…
