According to google:

S8 - 155g
S10 - 157g
P20 - 187g

I'm surprised you feel that +2g makes the S10 feel heavy.

Only 2g? Crikey. Theyre the same size basically so I don't think its an illusion type thing but genuinely, the S10 feels distinctly heavier. More solid.

Fair enough though

Yeah sure thing. I will be using it with the Fetch mount on my dog some time next week too.

I don't know when the £100 off offer ends though so you may just want to bite the bullet and do it.

From what I can tell just looking through the view finder, Hypersmooth is EPIC.

I can answer the first two already. Easy and Easy. It's basically a smartphone interface.

I assume she has her own phone? She'll need to download the GoPro app on her phone. Basically, charge the battery fully first, stick a high end memory card in, then the battery, turn it on, follow the prompts and it talks you through it all. It updates and you're good to go. I think it took 10 minutes.

When I've got some footage I'll make a new thread and put everything in there.

A WiFi signal booster. Kids are complaining the signal isn't strong enough. Judging by the data being used in the house I think they're telling lies because they're both coming up to phone renewal time. But at least I've done my part :)

I'd love to know what our data usage is at the moment.. the router doesn't show the stats and as it's an unlimited plan it's not on the bill either.

A new bed... finally !!!

We ordered it a couple of weeks before lockdown so it seems like we've been waiting ages for it to turn up.

A pair of Hella horns for the C1, it sounds like I've got the horn from a dilapidated vespa at the moment.

Some touch screen stylus pens for the bike, my touch screen compatible gloves are not when it is in the UA case.

e accepted liability and will replace but only once covid restrictions are such that their happy to send a 2 man delivery team out.
