those look baller but personally i almost never listen to music on the go so the idea of high res audio players is just wasted on me one exception is in the before times if i were working in a coffee shop sometimes i’d put in my fancy earplugs and then put on my headphones with the volume turned up a bit to drown out when other customers got super annoying.

one funny thing about the steak is how everyone mocked it when it came out because a 5" screen was ludicrously huge for a phone

Wild EEPROM posted:which bad ipad competitor had the most laffs the playbook worked fine without a blackberry, though you didn't get messenger without one, i don't think. i got a free one and and used it for media because the speakers were good. this was also, for the time, a plus about the touchpad. i feel like the steak was also thick, but maybe i've been apple poisoned all phones were thicccc at the time

yeah tbh i browsed the web pretty well and hilariously actually did flash decently especially considering it was a tablet. but flash was terrible and they clearly spent a bunch of money doing it as the anti apple and it was just such a dumb movt

meat sweats posted:There was absolutely no use case for a tablet that only ran non-existent Blackberry apps and had a significant chance of become permadead if you forgot to plug it in for a weekend, when it cost exactly as much as the equivalently specced iPad or Samsung. If you bought one for $50 after it was shitcanned then sure. you’re really misreading my point here which was that compared to a lot of devices at the time the hardware was great. the software sucked which is why it was a failure. normally non ipads had lovely hardware and lovely software both.

Mr. Nice! posted:is that not still the case? depends, really. i have an 8-inch samsung tablet i really like because it has an oled screen which makes it the best for reading in bed at night. i wouldn't necessarily want to use it for much else, though, so i'd argue it has good hardware and mediocre software.
