I'm looking for a new smartwatch, I need something that's a full android, has 2 gigs of ram and a little bit of power. https://www.gearbest.com/smart-watch-phone/pp_939806.html?wid=1433363#goodsDetail

What do you guys think of This one?

I like this one because it can play Super Nintendo games.


It's full-featured, It has a crap battery life, But It has a fully functional web browser, The google play store And I'd be able to check the forums and post directly from the watch.

I'm thinking about getting this.

plus it's huge. I don't know if that's a pro or a con, all I know is I think this is the one I'm going to get.

I know I know, Smartwatches aren't something everyone is into, I'm just a gadget person, And If my gadgets also happen to play retro games on them, All the better :D

I don't see how playing a game on a watch would be fun. I had a PSP and it was like playing 1/3 of a game. I think you should pass on the watch and get yourself into some kind of program. :laugh8:

That's exactly what Tate was telling me last night when I was talking this over with him, I admit, Smartwatches aren't the most popular of things out there, I've been mulling this over pretty hard, I do very much want that watch. But, I have to be honest, I know me better than anyone, the draw of it is entirely the novelty of the thing, I know I'll never play it.

Right now, I have so many gadgets I never use, Have you ever heard of this,, PSVR they have? I got one of these, The expensive setup that came with Skyrim, I've played it in total maybe like eight hours since I bought it over a year ago.

It's something people don't know about me and I don't really speak about it much, I'm totally a shopaholic and it's all usually expensive impulse purchases.

You know what, Even though, This Draw I have to purchase this thing is difficult to process, I will, I will give this some extra thought, You are not the only one who has told me this was a bad idea and most certainly a waste of money.

And really, I know you guys are right. It's hard to explain, I have this strong desire to buy this thing, And even I know I will get the thing, Put some emulators on it, Play with it for literally two days, Put it back in its box, throw in a closet and forget the entire experience.

I will, For you and Tate, I will give this purchase some extra consideration.

Thank you, brother.

Note, That's not to even mention, My eyes can't focus on tiny text anymore, I literally wouldn't even be able to read the thing in most situations.

No, I haven't heard of that. You need something to distract yourself from the impulse to buy it or buy something you need instead.

Hmm,

I would say, I could use a better Laptop, But I have three laptops at this point and they all work pretty well, Hmm I guess as far as needs go, I have three step grandbabies, The newest one Savannah Hasn't yet been introduced to build a bear workshop.

I may just end up doing that instead, I'll take Savannah to build a bear and me and the grandkids will all get ice cream or something. and maybe pizza. Yeah.., That sounds fun :D

I used Polar Heart Monitor Watch when I was training for a Marathon in 2002, it kept me from over doing it and to learn how to pace myself.

Worked great. I could look at it anytime and see my heart rate and set thresholds so it would beep if my heart rate was not in the ideal zone.

After I found my stride, I stopped wearing it though.

I'm the same way, I get all these gadgets, thinking I will have some use for them, but when I'm out in public I don't even like carrying my phone with me, I'm more of a naturalist. I don't know why I'm obsessed with gadgets I literally never use.

I like to scroll through pages of gadgets on Amazon, but I don't buy anything because I don't need them. I find it odd that there's so many gadgets that have bottle openers implying all the potential buyers have a drinking problem. I saw this today and thought it was interesting.
