The remote, speed and apps are a welcome.

History of TV's coming from a 43" Inch early adopter version of 4K TV (Sharp) and before that it was the bubble TV experience,

Finally got it in time. I got an email saying it was back in stock and I bought it maybe 20 minutes later, and not even an hour after that it's sold out. Supposedly it smells like the original 2009-2011 formulation from YSL. People pay a lot of money for the vintage stuff so its always been hard for me to get, but ive always eventually managed to find some up until recently where its getting harder and harder.

Forget even finding the original formulation from ysl on ebay, even the later reformulations still go for a good chunk. I believe anything 2015 and after is the new watered down formulation, you can tell just by the smell and color, its very obvious. Now you're telling me this version outperforms the current one ysl has, and even competes with their best formulation they ever made of it, and costs $45?

Surprised how fast it went, I should have bought more than I did. Wish they did something similar with gucci pour homme 2 which at the moment sells for $400-$500 for a full bottle, original price was like $60, absolutely disgusting.

Pleased to see a fellow fragrance hobbyist in this forum. Latest fragrance I myself have purchased is Le Sel d'Issey by Issey Miyake. Great salty mineral scent thats refreshing for the soul in the cold months
 
Had a little bit of a splurge recently with TV prices discounted;

Purchased a 65" S85F Samsung OLED for the bedroom. Very happy with it, incredible picture. Not as big an audiophile / home theatre freak I used to be, so Im more cost conscious and I have to saw, even as an 'entry' level OLED, its very good. Mostly only used for Switch 2 + streaming / youtube. More than does the job.

Also got a pair of Audeze Maxwell gaming headphones. I was using Logitech G935s before but I have always been annoyed at how awful "gaming" headphones are. I have heard a multitude of them, and they all sound terrible. I cant work out why, like who is asking for these headphones with really bloated, blubbery bass with muddy mid ranges. Thats why I had a set of Sony MDR1As I used for everything at the PC through a DAC but I needed something with a mic and the logitechs were less offensive than most gaming headphones. These Maxwell's are actually very decent sounding, finally gaming headphones that actually does finesse and tight bass. Super solid build too.

Oh and my Shokz OpenRun headphones died so I bought a pair of Shokz OpenRun Pro 2s to replace them. A decent little upgrade over the OpenRuns for when Im out on the mountain bike.
