    Stea1th got a reaction from wasab in Best buy or Microcentre (opinion)   
    Microcenter is a better store..period. Especially for tech. It's not even close to debatable. Microcenter's selection for tech is wayyyyy more...not to mention their prices are way better. I've come to see that bestbuy typically isn't really the best buy....they overprice a LOT of their stuff..especially smaller accessories like cables. While you won't beat amazon pricing on either for accessories like cables.
     
    Now, bestbuy isn't without it's strengths..for TV's it's great..but price wise..they typically are more..bestbuy is rarely the best buy. The few times i've gone there to buy something has been because they had stock, but the price was less online...but they do price match which is why they will be known as amazon showroom.
     
    For computer components the only reason i've went to bestbuy was because of stock and that was ONLY for GPU and a power supply during the shortage time. Otherwise microcenter is light years ahead in terms of selection..the fact you can walk in and pretty much by any component had have 20+ version of said item is way better.
     
    My local bestbuy had like 3 sticks of ram and 2 motherboards...
    Microcenter has 50+ of each if not more

    Stea1th got a reaction from bradwiggo in iPhone XR Dominates the iPhone Market   
    I do not agree, simply because the average consumer does not see the difference. I'm basing this on personal experience, every day, with both phones XR and the XS side by side..people have a difficult time telling the difference between the 2. 
     
    However, I'll tell you this, if the room they were in wasn't so bright, and they were outside lets say at night, the deep blacks of the OLED screens are MUCH more of a visual tell. In a bright store, with both running demo loops of the same content, a MAJORITY of people can not tell the difference, which is hard to justify the $300 difference in price. 
     
    I'm not disagreeing that the oled screen isn't better...im a HUGE fan of oled. My tv at home is an LG oled, but in the end it comes down to the average person and most people can't tell the difference between QLED from a Samsung or OLED from a LG. However, the 2 have very different panels and look VERY different to a person that might be more familiar with the tech.
