@alexkidman we all suffer for our craft 😂

@nick.bttr.reviews My kids were literally playing it yesterday. It’s timeless.

@nick.bttr.reviews The secret? Sony’s new QN3 processor (7x faster than XM5) + 12 microphones working together. It’s next-level compared to AirPods Max and Sonos Ace.
Sound quality is exceptional too - crisp and detailed across every genre I tested.

@nick.bttr.reviews Battery life is fantastic: 30 hours with ANC on, plus quick charging (3 mins = 3 hours playback). Perfect for long flights or extended work sessions.

Comfort is solid - I wore these for hours with glasses on without the brain-crushing feeling some headphones give you.

@nick.bttr.reviews The downsides?

• Premium price won’t suit every budget
• Limited spatial audio support vs competitors
• Touch controls take some getting used to
• Clamp a bit tight when worn around neck

@nick.bttr.reviews Bottom line: If you’re serious about blocking out the world and want flagship audio quality, these deliver.

Not cheap, but they justify the investment for frequent travellers, remote workers, or serious listeners.

@nick.bttr.reviews My kids were mortified. My wife just looked at me , laughed and accepted it.

She knows what I’m like…

@manton Agree it’s the Notes section that’s the biggest issue. I understand providing a way to engage as a brand with other short-form platforms is important, but the fact each note doesn’t have its own URL on your site, so it can’t be linked to or embedded in a full post, means it’s very limited.

@nick.bttr.reviews Who did I miss?

@bibbybhoy.bsky.social Ugh, that sucks.

@nick.bttr.reviews Ideally, that includes the weekly news roundup on a Friday, plus at least one tech or appliance review per week (two when I can manage it!). I also want to write 1-2 deeper features or interviews a week as well, depending on bandwidth.

@nick.bttr.reviews My goal is to offer more insight to paid subscribers on every article as well. For example, my most recent reviews have a paid section that offers direct specs comparisons with similar or competing products, a handful of tips/tricks to get the most out of the product, and one “final thought”.

@nick.bttr.reviews My weekly news roundup, meanwhile, has a list of news articles, but paid subscribers get a deeper dive into three of the week’s biggest stories, with some commentary thrown in.

@nick.bttr.reviews As expected, changing things up kind of worked against me at first. I had a handful of people unsubscribe when they started receiving my reviews as emails. I get it, it was a change from what I originally promised.

@nick.bttr.reviews But I feel like I’m starting to find a good groove with the writing. My biggest problem is self-marketing. I’m terrible at promoting myself. I understand how important it is, but also hate doing it.

@nick.bttr.reviews So if you’re interested in an Aussie take on tech and you’ve made it this far in my little thread, please consider subscribing 🙏

@nick.bttr.reviews Rock Band 4 still rocks around this house. Not as often as I’d like, but it’s the one game everyone here really enjoys playing together.

@edzitron.com And the cynic in me wants to believe that even the name “io” was little more than a ploy to steal attention (and maybe search traffic) from Google’s I/O announcements.
