My favourite device (today)
I'm privileged to have all the toys. (It's been said that I'd be happy working, even if it'd just be paid in gadgets... but I suspect the bank manager would disagree.)
Over the last 24 hours, I've used my Nexus 5 phone & Nexus 10 tablet, Google Glass, a Pixel and Macbook. (And, there are a few more gadgets at home, just ask my wife!)
I've come into the rhythm of using my Pixel at work, exclusively, now for many years. It's beautiful. And at home, I frequently use the Macbook pro, primarily as I need a BIG screen and code sometimes.
My train journeys therefore see me using my phone or Nexus 10 a lot, but recently I rediscovered my old Samsung Chromebook 550c with 3G. And... it's currently the best way to do a lot of productive work on the train.
It's got fantastic battery life, it's small, light weight, durable and the 3G connection is just incredibly reliable and stable.
So (at least until I put Glass on my face again) the Samsung 550C (or this), even though it's now a couple of years old, is my favourite for the train journey!
PS - this seems to be one of my most popular posts, to my surprise. But I also saw that the image (which was on Samsung's site) vanished, so I hunted for a fresh one. How surprised was I when the image on Google image search returned a nice image... from this very post! So, I had to find another, and this time it is stored on my blog.
