Was thinking about doing this with a Jonsbo and an n100 mini-itx. You happy with the N3?

The selling point of these is the low power consumption and small footprint. If those don't matter as much as performance to you, there are…

That’s right. eBay is flooded with “super copy” AirPods that will even be detected as original on an iPhone.

philotex replied to BatmanAU on Apple Watch SE GPS (2nd Gen) 40mm $297 + Delivery ($0 to Metro Areas/ OnePass/ C&C/ In-Store) @ Officeworks
I had the 5 pro which was decent comparatively. It was no Garmin in terms of battery life but didn't need a daily charge.

philotex replied to Azro on Apple Watch SE GPS (2nd Gen) 40mm $297 + Delivery ($0 to Metro Areas/ OnePass/ C&C/ In-Store) @ Officeworks

If however you don't mind soldered on ram or 1gbpe lan ports, you can grab a T9 Plus for 50-100 bucks less.

The main advantage of the mini is it sips power and it’s small. No other reason to go mini over this.

When you say you have the blue version, do you mean the 3DX which is double the thickness of this one? (15cm vs. 7.5cm)
