Only two gadgets this year.
A S10+ (512GB, white ceramic back) for wife. I guess it works just fine like the old one, didn't see any need to upgrade mine. We both had S8+ before, I still do.
New watch for me. Surely, who needs a watch to tell time, anymore. But alas, I still don't use my phone to tell time very often. I am catching myself looking away from my phone when I am on it and turning my wrist. How inconvenient as sometimes it involves putting down the phone and pulling up a sleeve. Old habits die hard. Also less than a fifth of the price of the phone - got on Black Friday. Like it much more than I would a new phone.
For anyone interested, it is a Citizen AT4010-50E. It is quartz, but I never really did understand (still don't) the need for a mechanical watch that requires maintenance and still cannot keep time accurately. But then I am sure there is many that aren't willing to spend more than $30 on a watch. The one thing I am still waiting for is the price and size of GPS synched watches to come down. Current models are simply too big for my small wrists. Even though, the radio signal from Colorado works reliably enough from my home.
