- wreath 8y agoOura ring! It’s an amazing piece of technology. I can barely notice it in my finger, I love the details it shows about my sleep although I still have to educate myself about sleep to make the best out of it. This is my first wearable. Well worth the few months wait.
- hacalox 8y agoIf I could only pick one it would probably be my desktop chair: hag capisco[1] Why? -It has helped me feel better about working all day long sitting on a chair which is something I don't think humans should do. -It is well built and I know I have purchased something I will have with me during many years -I use it on a dialy basis Similar logical purchases I also feel proud about this year: Backpack:Tumi alpha bravo (high resistente nylon) Headphones: b&w p7 wireless and etymotic er3xr Coffee machine: aeropress Edit:typo [1]:https://www.amazon.es/dp/B0198M40L0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_HZxiCbFGNHXDK https://www.amazon.es/dp/B0198M40L0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_HZx...

- quickthrower2 8y agoYet another best of 2018 question
- ankyth27 8y agoA secondary wide monitor (Acer).Having dual monitor setup definitely multiplies productivity. You can go with any brand but make sure it's atleast 24" plus and Full HD.
- anoncoward111 8y agoLG Zone4. Amazing phone for the price. Seriously considering buying another one as a backup. Completely ditched my laptop as a result.
- mads 8y ago85" TV half price on black friday and Sonos sound system.
- Bucephalus355 8y agoHighly entertaining for my cat. Works just as well as in the videos, even on my deep carpets. https://petronics.io https://petronics.io Available on Amazon as well.
- airbreather 8y ago4K 55 inch curved TV for a monitor on my desk at work, super clear display but only 30Hz due to Hdmi, $500 plus delivery from Kogan (Australia). Initially I was mocked, then they started quietly coming up to me and asking for the link to buy one.
- SBCRec 8y agoI am currently searching for a new display. With the 55inch display, how far away from the screen do you sit? (I am also Aussie. I have been considering the Kogan displays for a while now, due to price.) Thanks!
- criticalguy27 8y agoDid you get something with very low input lag? I have an LG 55UK6400PLF and the lag makes it unusable for a desktop.
- sethammons 8y agoMy new home in western Montana. Just came in from my deck, listening to the lake across the road lap at it shores as a flock of geese flew buy. Caught a glimpse of a bald eagle soaring through the trees. In Christmas theme: an electronic piano for my daughter, who was unable to take our dilapidated upright grand with us from California; she can play music again!
- JoshCalbet 8y agoGOOG, APPL, BRK.B
- NinjaX 8y agoI bought a motorcycle for cruising and exploring the life outside cubicles, instead of wasting time on Facebook or anyother social media site.
