Kilt Boy 29353 Report post Posted August 20, 2021 I've decided to replace my phone with a tablet that has LTE connectivity. It arrived the other day and works brilliantly, with one exception. Mobile data works fine. Texting and all other functions are perfect. It just doesn't make or receive phone calls. I'm trying to track the problem down with Samsung. Other than that, I love this new Samsung Galaxy Tab Active3. It's the perfect size to fit in my day bag, is the most current Android version so it should last a while, is rugged and durable (military standards). I'm mostly happy with it, but will send it back if I can't figure out how to make calls on it. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Report post Posted August 26, 2021 Not purchased yet, but need a new mouse. The cheap Logitech I bought a year ago started to "double click" by itself on single clicks. Making file transfers and online navigation very frustrating. Owned many Logitech mouse's and it's the first that dies so quickly. Using my laptop Bluetooth mouse(also a Logitech) for the time being.

School started last week and we're only a few weeks away from fall. If I can save a few hundreds by buying off season, I'll take advantage of it. Unsure what kind of winter we'll get, but rather be prepared than freeze my ass. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
