Buying new digital devices
Updated:
Yes, I did not bought new devices since a long time ago. Nothing exciting was created, and I need nothing more, I thought.
In the recent month, I bought three new toys.
- Kindle Oasis
- MacBook
- Apple Watch Band Milanese Loop
Kindle Oasis ☆☆☆☆☆
The last kindle I used is Kindle Paperwhite 2. It weights a little more than 200g. However, Kindle Oasis weights only a little more than 130g, which is lighter than iPhone 6s. The screen seems very close to real book, and I love it.
MacBook ☆☆☆☆
I use laptop for light office work and ssh.
I was using ThinkPad T440 with SSD and 8G CPU memory. It runs Win10 and I rely on MobaXterm to get unix experience. Everything seems OK, but not amazing. The screen is not high-resolution, with weak unix experience.
Apple just renewed MacBook, so I bought a silver item. It is light, very light. The keyboard is not so hard to adapt to. I love the full unix experience with iTerm
and oh-my-zsh
. The uniform experience with iPhone and iPad makes it better.
Milanese Loop ☆☆
The Apple Watch Milanese Loop feels really bad. It’s made of stainless steel and make me feel awkward when using metal MacBook. After two days, I began to use my sport band again.
