RE: Moto Z Force - Review
@gjacobse said in Moto Z Force - Review:
Similar to the new APPLE Mac - I expect that at some point there will be an adapter that will allow you to do so.
I like that it doesn't matter how you insert the connector (no registration key for proper connection like the 30-PIN Apple, or USB A and B ), but did we really need yet another connector?
Oh well. In time, all the others will fade off into the distance I suppose.
I love the fact that it's impossible to plug in backwards. Normally when I plug my phone in it's dark AF so this definitely helps keep the connector intact in the long run. Little mad that I have to buy some USB-C cables now but that day was inevitable...

Moto Z Force - Review
Alright guys, wanted to share my experiences with this thing so far. I swapped over from T-Mobile to Verizon yesterday and I'm thrilled with the coverage thus far. The Moto Z Force is the Moto Z with an upgraded battery (for obvious reasons). I'm coming from an original Nexus 5 (LG) so this review may seem a little exaggerated... I've been using this device for the past 12 hours now without any issues.
-
Battery life is insanity 3500mAH... I've been using the device almost nonstop all morning with full brightness and no GPS services. I'm down to 75% after 5.5 hours.
-
The phone is USB-C without a headphone jack... (marketing...) but they do include the adapter. The downside to this is you can't charge and enjoy music on headphones simultaneously.
-
Screen resolution 1440x2560 never looked so good on this HUGE IPS panel.
-
Camera packs a whopping 21 MP on the rear @ 4x3 orientation. At 16x9 the camera shoots at 16.1. However, the rear also has the ability to shoot 4K @ 30fps or 1080p @ 30/60 fps depending on what you configure it for.
-
Bloatware? Not seeing much of if anything that Motorola loads aside from their custom GUIs for apps and the widgets included on the device. This pleases me in so many ways.
-
RAM IT UP. I was told by the salesman this was 6 GB or ram but after a closer look it's 4 GB. This is the fastest android device I've ever used personally.
-
Finger print scanning that works as it should... Alright this sensor is really amazing. You initially set it up and scan a single finger but it can take as many as you'd like to you in order to unlock. This beats the hell of using a pin/pattern imo. I was always iffy about scanners on mobile devices but this has taken care of those assumptions I made previously...
-
I have yet to come across any bugs on the device itself. However, some VPN applications have acted funny... disconnects and reconnects to 3G after using a WiFi network etc. For now, I've removed the VPN application I was running.
-
The mods are a really neat and cool idea imo. However, the projector they offer is 50 lumens... The camera is $350 (way too high) and the extended battery gives you 6-7 hours of intensive use. The battery does show as another battery device within the OS itself so you can differ use from the internal battery.

Untangle is fine if you want a massive AIO beast. I hate those though.
Just out of curiosity, why?

RE: Consulting vs Computing
@scottalanmiller said in Consulting vs Computing:
I'll try to help...
If I was forming these two companies...
Buffalo Systems Consulting
Buffalo Computing SystemsThe first, I assume, is a business that consultants on systems, maybe computer systems. It supplies consulting.
The second sounds like a computer that either makes computers or runs them and you buy computing from them.
Makes sense to me. Also wanna throw around technology/technologies in this thread.

@scottalanmiller said in Consulting vs Computing:
What is the full title that you are considering?
I mean no offense but I don't wanna disclose that as of yet publicly.
I'm not sure how to answer the question then, though. I'm not clear what you are even asking.
Consulting as a title, means that you consult.
Computing as a title means, um, that you are a computer?I don't know how to compare the two in a vacuum, they aren't directly related title options.
Well that answers my question none the less! It would be Blah Blah Consulting/Computing.

Alright, wanted to ask for feedback from the mango community. What term do you find more appealing as a professional? From my experience consulting appeals to a much broader market than consulting but wanted to know your thoughts.

RE: What are you listening to? What would you recommend?
@IRJ said in What are you listening to? What would you recommend?:
I wish I liked new music. Maybe I am just getting old.
Rock is unfortunately dying... if it's not already dead.
What do you think of this?
