    Carrying consumer electronics on a plane

    I've taken a box of 10ish SFP modules through as hand luggage before which I expected to look very dodgy on an x-ray in my bag, but they didn't get a second look and I breezed through. Not entirely sure if that's a good or bad thing.

    ** The Official iPhone 8 Thread **

    Too big, I switched from a Nexus 6p to a 7 and one of the reasons was that the phone was far too big, even for me with massive hands, and the 7 is just the perfect size for a phone. I won't be very happy if the only iPhone available at roughly 5" in size doesn't have all the latest and greatest...

    BMW and M Power Owners

    I'm pretty much going to brain dump into this thread to get some opinions on what I want for my next car, spec me a F30 328i basically. I've been looking for a while and have pretty much settled on a 328i as my ideal car right now, have £15-17k to put to it so more than likely would be a...

    AirPods (and AirPods Pro [and AirPods Pro 2nd generation]) now available

    So after saying I wouldn't buy them because of the way they look, I got the Airpods as a gift. Love the functionality, especially how easy it is to jump between Macbook & phone, they fit well and sound good. They still look a bit like earrings but the guys in my work got used to looking at me...

    Do iPhones have a separate hidden APN setting for "hotspot" traffic?

    Might be stating the obvious but the carrier bundle update controls the available options available inside the settings app, by the fact that today the Wi-fi calling option showed up under the phone settings for the first time after a carrier setting update.

    AirPods (and AirPods Pro [and AirPods Pro 2nd generation]) now available

    The only single thing stopping me from buying them is the way they look when they're being worn, I just can't get over it. I would absolutely love them, especially the jumping between Macbook/watch/phone depending on what's needed at the time but I can't face wearing them in public.

    Chinese Ad Pages on Phone

    Without knowing enough about it, I would say that your best bet would be to install a trusted EU or UK Rom on the phone, who knows what else the dodgy ROM is doing in the background.

    *** The Official Playstation 4 (PS4) Thread ***

    Does anyone know if there is a 1TB (or even 2TB) external hard drive sold which I can dismantle, swap the 1TB drive into the PS4 and put the 500GB from the PS back into the caddy? My external HD has seen better and I'm sick of the lack of space on the PS4 so I'm thinking I can kill 2 birds with...

    ** The iPhone 7 and 7 Plus Thread **

    Pretty strange request, this is my first iPhone for years so I only have a pair of the lightning earphones, I have quite bad waxy ears so I can't stick the in-ear headphones, the Apple ones are perfect for me (and now discontinued Amazon premium headphones). Is there a lightning to 3.5mm...

    ** The iPhone 7 and 7 Plus Thread **

    By killing the affordable Nexus line purely for the reason of luring in people who want a phone because of the price tag rather than features, releasing a £400 phone for £600 while it does nothing to justify that cost, and blatantly ripping off the styling of the iPhone. I don't wish them to do...

    ** The iPhone 7 and 7 Plus Thread **

    Google ****ed me off with the Pixel, coupled with them abandoning my hardly 1 year old Nexus 6P and the size of the 6P starting to do my head in so I'm back on iOS after a 4 year break. Feels very recognisable to all those years ago but at the same time very different, I'm very enjoying iOS 10...

    Call of Duty 2016 ( Infinite Warfare)

    I haven't had a COD game in a good while and I've really missed it, just having a game where I can pick up the pad and play a few rounds like the old days. I was desperate for this to be good along with CoD4 being by far and away my favourite COD but this is the biggest load of ***** I've ever...

    Google October 4th Event

    Nearly double the price than my 6P from last year, for what? If anything it's a downgrade, and what has really ****ed me off is that the 6P is getting hardly any of the new features that make the Pixel phone unique, that's a 1 year phone that is being deprecated. WHy would I buy the PIxel when...

    *** The Official FIFA 17 Thread ***

    Is there anything that can be done about the FUT club not transferring over? New team, EST Oct 2016 and no reward packs, brilliant.

    Google Pixel and Pixel XL

    Very little at this point will tempt me to upgrade from the 6p, I have never liked HTC phones and definitely don't like the look of this one.

    Seems like car dealer assigned incorrect license

    Not quite the same but a similar thing. Mam got a parking ticket for a place she never was on a ~3 month old car, appealed a few times, called a liar a couple of times on the phone etc. Finally got the photos and it was a completely different car, Nissan Navara (rather than a Nissan Juke)...

    Google Navigation & Speed Camera Alerts

    Not answering the question at all but another vote for TomTom Go, everything already has been stated above but the brilliant traffic avoidance makes it well worth the £15 a year. It's never let me down yet and it's saved me a ton of time, even if it only saves me an hour it's practically paid...

    Nexus 5x Poor battery life

    My go-to's for battery on a fresh android install are pretty much: WI-Fi always scanning disabled and location on GPS only. Also disable Google Now if you don't use it. I had a mate with a 5x with the same problems and these 3 things fixed it. If your signal is always poor then the battery...

    Tap. Pay. UK. - Android Pay in the UK

    Might very well be late to the party, but Android Pay now works perfectly on my Nexus 6p with DPI at 460. Apparently DPI changes had to be supported since it supports N DP3 with built in DPI adjustment, so it now works on marshmallow too.

    Tap. Pay. UK. - Android Pay in the UK

    I would much rather keep my DPI at 460 on 6P than use this, as much as I want to use Android Pay it's not worth going back to default DPI at all.
