    Another thing I want to note is that I have Spotify Premium and I noticed how low tracks sounded. Compared to Poweramp, it sounds like trash. And that's withoit having messed with the equalizer. Once I set it to my preferred settings it sounds even better.

    I even checked with Google Play Music and it's the same. I guess streaming music is okay for convenience, but I like to actually hear good quality music and this isn't cutting it. I'm probably being really picky, but it's a noticeable difference.

    Now I'm curious if I purchase music off of the Play Store on what it'll sound like.

    Been a bit MIA, haha.

    I've been testing Android N and it's pretty great. Only real bug I've noticed is that Pocket Casts won't stream any episodes. Have to download them in order to listen, so a bit annoying. But that's about it.

     

    Also it's funny because I tried to sign up to the beta program and it tells me I don't have any eligible devices, yet... I have the 6P. Lol. Will probably give it another shot on my PC and see if that works.

    Haven't been paying too much attention to new albums, but:

     

    Further Out - Basement

    Gore - Deftones

    To be Everywhere is to be Nowhere - Thrice

    Views - Drake

    Awake for Everything - Hesitation Wounds 

     

    Really looking forward to new Touché (believe it was rumored to be released this year, but I heard this a while back) and hopefully some new All Shall Perish. 

    What video games have you been playing?

    Not much surprised me about Microsoft's conference. Xbox One S looks nice and I'll probably purchase that at the time of release. Friend of mine is excited for Scalebound, which I'll have to re-watch the trailer. Forza Horizon 3 looks like a lot of fun.

    Project Scorpio confuses me a bit. It has all of this hardware, but from what I heard it seems as if only developers will be able to fully use it to their advantage? They mentioned that in their video a couple of times. Also confuses me since the new PlayStation Neo is rumored to run 4K as well, right? Or is there a difference?

     

    And from Sony's conference, I'm excited for Days Gone. Apparently an open world, so I can't wait to see and hear more.

    Resident Evil VII looks nice and scary.

    I haven't played the God of War series, but this new one looks great.

    Horizon: Zero Dawn is another that looks interesting. I've been following it for a while. 

    Death Stranding looks very odd. I can't help but to think about Silent Hills since it has Norman Reedus. But - Kojima - so I'm excited.

    Yeah, that was the one downside for me. No external storage or removable battery.

    It's a bit of a downer, but I'm liking it.

    Ordered the SIM card and should get here Monday, but I'm actually going to root my 6P today. There's a lot more with rooting a Nexus device. Having to use a command prompt is something that's new to me, so I'm reading up on it and making sure I'm thorough. Don't want to accidentally brick. I don't think I'll flash any ROMs since I'm already debloated, but I do want root apps.

    This is my first Nexus and I'm in love with it. Low-light performance on it is really great. A lot better than I expected. And yeah, debloated is fantastic. Just basic Google apps and that's it. Definitely happy with this phone. I just wish they had made the gold model 128 GB. Don't think I would ever fill that, but I would like to know I'm covered lol. I have all of the music I listen to on my phone now and it's just under 4 GB, so micro SD was never too necessary. I'm glad. :D

    Are you using earbuds? Could be an issue with them, I'd try a different set first. I will say Pocket Cast has been pretty crappy since this last update. It'll straight up stop playing on all my Android devices for no reason.

    Nah, I was using the speakers. It was messing with my data as well as I would browse and nothing would load sometimes. Ended up doing a wiping data from recovery and it seems like it did the trick. Phone is running great now. But I am going to end up buying an actual nano SIM. Someone mentioned that maybe it can support newer bands or something along those lines. And it's pretty cheap as well, so not much to lose, haha.

    Nextel is a Mexican company, right? I'm pretty sure I've seen that on a couple signs when I'm over there.

    But yeah, I'm just going to order one. Apparently I only have to pay for shipping, so that's super convenient. I really hope this ends up fixing these small issues, because I'm really loving this phone. And I get my phone case today. I've been babying this phone since yesterday because I'm scared to drop it, haha.

    It ended up arriving today! Pretty satisfied so far. Beautiful phone.

    I had to manually cut my micro SIM to a nano SIM and it seems to work just fine, but I have noticed apps like Spotify and Pocket Casts randomly stopping on me. Not sure what that's all about. Might have to end up ordering one from my carrier instead.

    Added more information.

    Ended up purchasing a Nexus 6P. I hate being tied down to a company, so I skipped the GS7 Edge even though I was a bit interested. 

    Also, I really want to try out the front facing speakers. I listen to a lot of music, so I'm excited to try it out. I went with a 64 GB Gold one. 128 GB is probably way too much for a normal person to use up. I have a 128 GB micro SD card and I've only used up about 12 GB and I have music on there that I never listen to. And I'm backing up all pictures to the Cloud now anyways. So I don't think I'll miss the micro SD.

     

    Should arrive tomorrow, so I'm really excited. I couldn't deliver it to my PO BOX for some reason, so I had to send it to my home address. People have been stealing mail lately, so I'm a little nervous. Will have to watch out for the mail like a hawk on Tuesday.
