Now this is really cool. I would definitely get one of these.
Awesome idea, but what about chipped cards, and paywave?????
I love the alert when it gets out of range!!!!! They should make that swiper to link to cards so you can do that alone!!!!!
I assume it wouldn’t work in the same way as PayWave. But any card can still be swiped, regardless whether it has a chip or not. I guess this could be a bit of a drawback but it definitely saves you carrying around a whole wallet.
I don’t think that a card that is chipped would work?????
The card reader has to read the actual chip as opposed to the magnetic strip!!!!!
but can it bring me faster nudity?!?!?

Just looking at making the transition from iphone to andriod. Ive never had an android operating system before but a lot of ppl seem to be raving about it.
Ive been usinng iphones for 5 years and thought i would change it up..
Are you on plan or did you buy outright?? Do you use mac or pc to sync your data? And just general overall use?? Good array of apps? Camera specs etc??
Cheers!

I’m an android fan for sure (I just don’t gel with Apple). Personally I find Android to be very simple to use - very intuitive. Quite the opposite to my experiences with Apple. So no surprises I sync with PC.
I got the phone on a plan.
So far I’ve been loving the S5. I had the S3 before that (and the original before that). In the first few days I thought I’d made a mistake upgrading - as there was a few things different on the S5 from previous version. But once I figured out what had changed and how to do what I want I am very happy.
I’ve installed a launcher app to customise the layout a little - but the standard layout is pretty good anyway. (I wanted a custom number of apps in the dock which you used to be able to do on previous Galaxys but not this one.)
Good array of apps available - everything I want anyway. I think most things are available on iPhone and android these days anyway.
The camera is far and above the old camera on the s3. I don’t know specs off the top of my head - but you can find those easy enough. But I can say that the photos I have taken recently are top quality.
My only real complaint is that battery life isn’t the best. But I do use it a fair bit over the day accessing facebook, internet, music and sometimes streaming radio. [Note: I did have an issue for about a week where the battery was getting rooted super quick. Apparently it had something to do with an app running in the background that accessed the camera. I finally managed to kill it - but I think this has now been fixed with the most recent update anyway).
Oh - and I would recommend checking one out in the flesh if you can. It’s a big phone (screen size) make no mistake about that. It may not fit in your pocket if you are used to that. BUT it’s super thin, sleek and very good looking in my opinion.
Hope that helps!
Epic man!
Sounds like the ducks nuts!! Cant wait to get my grubby mits on one 
Cheers hombre! Yew!

On the wireless speaker/headphone subject…
I brought one of these at ess in jindy on my trip..
http://outdoor-technology.com.au/shop/wireless-audio/adapt/
Its a small dongle you plug and headphones into and it makes them Bluetooth… (I brought it for my tooks headphones that I have put into my sandbox helmet (I brought them in a beanie and they are a flat headphone disk with a small Velcro spot on them… I then took them out of the beanie and put them into my helmets earpads… But I was getting annoyed with having the put the cable in and out of my jacket/hoodie and unplug it from my phone every time I took my helmet off (lunch time.. Or on the train etc)). So I now have the cable inside the helmet too and this little thing clipped on the outside. .
It changes songs, volume, answers and hangs up calls.. And even controls Cortana (my phones Siri) so I can tell it who to call or text. Or what playlist/artist/song to play with out taking my phone out of my pocket! best $60 or so I’ve spent in a while!!
