I got the phone as brand new
OP, either you're telling lies, or someone bought a used/damaged phone, refurbished it and packaged it as a new phone to you.

Phone was bought in December, 2021.
Also, it's been reported lost/stolen.

Is there a thing we should know? grin

Great picture overall.
Was the blur on the flower from Raw?
I increased the blur, and in a hurry too. I'll probably re-edit it when I'm settled.

Jokes EtcVictim Of My Wife's Taser by tecnolad(op): 2:06pm On Dec 14, 2022
A guy who purchased his lovely wife a pocket Tazer for their anniversary submitted this:

Last weekend I saw something at Larry's Pistol & Pawn Shop that sparked my interest.

The occasion was our 15th anniversary and I was looking for a little something extra for my wife Julie.

What I came across was a 100,000-volt, pocket/purse-sized Taser.

The effects of the Taser were supposed to be short lived, with no long term adverse affect on your assailant, allowing her adequate time to retreat to safety...??

WAY TOO COOL!

Long story short, I bought the device and brought it home... I loaded two AAA batteries in the darn thing and pushed the button. Nothing!

I was disappointed.

I learned, however, that if I pushed the button and pressed it against a metal surface at the same time, I'd get the blue arc of electricity darting back and forth between the two prongs.

AWESOME!!!

Unfortunately, I have yet to explain to Julie what that burn spot is on the face of her microwave.

Okay, so I was home alone with this new toy, thinking to myself that it couldn't be all that bad with only two AAA batteries, right? There I sat in my recliner, my cat Gracie looking on intently (trusting little soul) while I was reading the directions and thinking that I really needed to try this thing out on a flesh & blood moving target.
I must admit I thought about zapping Gracie (for a fraction of a second) and then thought better of it. She is such a sweet cat. But, if I was going to give this thing to my wife to protect herself against a mugger, I did want some assurance that it would work as advertised.

Am I wrong?

So, there I sat in a pair of shorts and a tank top with my reading glasses perched delicately on the bridge of my nose, directions in one hand, and Taser in another.

The directions said that: a one-second burst would shock and disorient your assailant; a two-second burst was supposed to cause muscle spasms and a major loss of bodily control; and a three-second burst would purportedly make your assailant flop on the ground like a fish out of water.
Any burst longer than three seconds would be wasting the batteries.

All the while I'm looking at this little device measuring about 5" long, less than 3/4 inch in circumference (loaded with two itsy, bitsy AAA batteries); pretty cute really, and thinking to myself, 'no possible way!'

What happened next is almost beyond description, but I'll do my best.

I'm sitting there alone, Gracie looking on with her head cocked to one side so as to say, 'Don't do it stupid,' reasoning that a one second burst from such a tiny lil ole thing couldn't hurt all that bad..

I decided to give myself a one second burst just for heck of it.

I touched the prongs to my naked thigh, pushed the button, and...

HOLY MOTHER OF RUSSIA. WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION. Impossible !!!!!

I'm pretty sure Hulk Hogan ran in through the side door, picked me up in the recliner, then body slammed us both on the carpet, over and over and over again.

I vaguely recall waking up on my side in the fetal position, with tears in my eyes, body soaking wet, both nipples on fire, testicles nowhere to be found, with my left arm tucked under my body in the oddest position, and tingling in my legs!

The cat was making meowing sounds I had never heard before, clinging to a picture frame hanging above the fireplace, obviously in an attempt to avoid getting slammed by my body flopping all over the living room.

Note: If you ever feel compelled to 'mug' yourself with a Taser, one note of caution:
There is NO such thing as a one second burst when you zap yourself!

You will not let go of that thing until it is dislodged from your hand by a violent thrashing about on the floor!

A three second burst would be considered conservative!

A minute or so later (I can't be sure, as time was a relative thing at that point), I collected my wits (what little I had left), sat up and surveyed the landscape. My bent reading glasses were on the mantel of the fireplace. ·

The recliner was upside down and about 8 feet or so from where it originally was. ·
My triceps, right thigh and both nipples were still twitching.. ·

My face felt like it had been shot up with Novocain, and my bottom lip weighed 88 lbs.
I had no control over the drooling.

Apparently I had crapped in my shorts, but was too numb to know for sure, and my sense of smell was gone.

I saw a faint smoke cloud above my head, which I believe came from my hair. I'm still looking for my testicles and I'm offering a significant reward for their safe return!

PS: My wife can't stop laughing about my experience, loved the gift and now regularly threatens me with it!

That wasn't the phone. That was me. I increased the background blur in a hurry. Lemme post the actual picture.

I just saw that for some reason, Nairaland is messing with the quality.

PhonesRe: Samsung Galaxy S22 Or Iphone 13 by tecnolad(m):
DrollyForce:
Guys...
What do you think makes sense to get?

Galaxy S22 or iPhone 13?

I'm interested in having dual sims which isn't easy to find for iPhone 13.

Samsung S22 seems to have the option of two dual nano sim and an extra esim while most iPhones are on the One Nano sim and Esim options.

Asides from these differences from my end. What's your viewpoint on those phones and the reason behind your choices?

Thanks.
Both phones are amazing, but I'll say what walk home with depends on what you're used to. If you've always been an Android user, I'd suggest you go with Samsung S22 - it's a decent phone, but I'd pick the SD variant any day.

However,

If you've always used iOS devices, or you want a better battery life, iPhone 13 is the better option to pick.

This is a beautiful thread you've started. It'd be really nice if you created a telegram community around this, so that people can get notified when you start posting.

It would be easy to have AMA sessions there too, if there's ever a need to do that.

Everyone knows(even iphone users) android phone is better than iphone. Thank you.
Depends on which devices you're comparing. Android or iOS, each has its uniqueness.

Most people are fond of picking recent Android flagships and comparing them with iPhones from 3-6 years ago.

SportsRe: Apple Shows Interest To Buy Man United, Proposes $5.8bn by tecnolad(m):

Man U will become hyper competitive should they go to Apple.

They've done well to build a trillion Dollar company amidst all these competitions. I think they'll do well.

However, expect to buy Man U kits at so-not-friendly rates. You may have to buy each leg of a pair of socks separately, and at a crazy price. grin
