First, it wasn’t until Apple showed the way.  Par for the course on that one.

Second, sound quality is subjective, but okay, Samsung makes good hardware.

Third, if they’re saying the Samsung product serves the Android market better and AirPods serve the iOS market better, what’s the point?  

Or was it Samsung that showed the way with gear icon X, wireless buds and a charging case. Came out before the first gen AirPods. 

Apple did it first of course though. 

Incorrect. Both products were released in December, 2016. Dunno date of iconX but AP came out December 13.

15 July 2016

Samsung launched the first-generation Gear IconX on 15 July 2016.

Right so Apple quick came up with the Airpods design and tech, then mass produced them in 5 months after seeing Samsung's product? Riiiigghht...

You missed the point - a claim was made the the Airpods came out first and implied that Samsung copied Apple which so it was corrected- please un-bunch your fanboy panties, thanks.

I have both and from the perspective of an average user, I personally prefer the Galaxy Buds. The Airpods are okay but when I'm on the subway they let it way too much of the noise around me. The Airpods don't feel anywhere close to secure in the ears the way the Galaxy Buds do - the Buds are also fit more comfortably as well. Again, I would consider myself an average user and far from an audiophile but I don't think anyone that is an audiophile would rave about either one of these products.

not sure I have all that much of a problem with this - I have Ring cameras outside of my house as a deterrent but also as a means to assist police should something happen so I can't see why others in the network wouldn't comply with the request if meant the arrest and/or prosecution of someone. Law Enforcement still has to go through channels to get the video and it doesn't appear to be a situation where 100% of all direct requests to Amazon will be fulfilled. If the courts reasonably believes that an individual has information that will lead to a convictions and that individual doesn't comply to testify on request the court can issue a subpoena if there is enough data to support the value of the testimony and likelihood to convict based on it. There are circumstances where even subpoena can't force the testimony but in 90%+ of cases you're going to testify. As far as overall Privacy goes isn't there an argument then that these outdoor camera's are violating the privacy of your neighbors and therefore should be banned? Unless you can contain the field of view to just your property you are more than likely picking up images from an adjacent property and not respecting their right to privacy - I actually informed my neighbors of my cameras and showed them what the cameras were picking up. No one had an issue and appreciated that I let them know...a couple actually bought their own once they saw it.

Seems like a decent tablet. I still have a Note 12.2 that's going strong (at least as strong as it can this far from it's release).

why are so many people bashing these guys? They have no intention to go to market with anything and admit that it's not a replacement for a Mac Pro in a professional environment. I think it's great that they looked at the Mac Pro and said "we could do that" and did...it was a cool pet project. Good for these guys, they did something pretty cool with something cool to show for it.
