  1. Well here are a couple of options I was able to find on amazon. They are both kind of expensive but will probably perform well. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-MDR-1ABT-Resolution-Bluetooth-Headphones/dp/B00U5WV25U/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics-accessories&ie=UTF8&qid=1459248570&sr=1-2 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sennheiser-URBANITE-XL-Wireless-Headphone/dp/B00QKJ3UA2/ref=sr_1_17?s=electronics-accessories&ie=UTF8&qid=1459248570&sr=1-17 Both should match your criteria well although I'm not totally sure about the charging. These two might be worth a try anyways and if you can go to a local store to try them then that's good. I have listened to some wired version of the Sony's and found them very good sounding. Urbanites I have not listened to, but have heard that they are decent although maybe a bit bass heavy. Hope this helped
  2. For those it won't make a difference in the sense that the integrated sound card can push enough power for those but I still think that Xonar DGX is so cheap that it is worth a try.
  3. Well a couple of options could be: - Galaxy S6/S6 Edge, at least in Finland the prices have really gone down since the launch of the S7. Screen isn't the biggest if that's what you're looking for and still a really nice phone all around. - HTC One A9, maybe a little pricey for its specs but could still be a good choice. Looks and feels like an iPhone 6 - Xperia Z5 Compact, nice specs in a smaller package. If you are looking for a smaller screen then this might be a good choice with the 4.6" screen.
  4. So I have a Z87-A board and Asus Xonar DG soundcard. So very similar although a bit older hardware. From what I have tested, Xonar does have quite a lot better audio quality. Have to say though that I am quite the audiophile so not sure how much of a difference "normal" people can hear. Anyways, Xonar DGX is so cheap that I think it is worth a try + it can really help if you have or plan to have higher impedance headphones at any point.
  5. Definitely not ready but that's what I expected anyways. Going to upgrade my GPU soon, even though not really planning on using VR.
  6. I would give a tablet for my mom, who now uses a Motorolo Xoom 2 ME which is starting to be really slow. She plays some games with it and uses social media. Tablet would be Asus ZenPad S8 (with 4gb/64gb), link here: http://www.amazon.com/ASUS-ZenPad-Z580CA-C1-BK-64-Tablet/dp/B012UEUQM0/ref=sr_1_110?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1449139850&sr=1-110&refinements=p_36%3A28000-30000 I think her Hay Days and Candy Crush Sagas would start to run a bit better ZenPad, because for the price it seemed like the oblivious choice IMO.

  8. I've been watching LinusTechTips videos for a few years (I think) now and never have I not enjoyed watching any of them. Keep doing what you're doing!
  9. For me the best thing about Z2 is that it is IP58 certified, I usually use my phones with care but it's always nice to know that if it drops or something like that, it won't immediately break.
  10. I really like the looks of this notebook, that red stripe really makes the difference.
  11. My favourite thing about the G3 is definitely the fact that it has a removable back and a microsd slot.
