Hey everyone,

We're always working on adding some more devices to the lovely Try The Tech set we already have :).

 

Below are some that are being talked about a lot around the web and that we would love to add to the group, but I wanted to ask how for your thoughts on them. Would you test one? Have you already? Which would be your dream devices to test? Which devices not on this list do you think we should add?

 

Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7

Huawei MediaPad T1 10

iPhone 6S

iPhone 6S Plus

Galaxy S7 

Galaxy S7 Edge

BQ Aquaris X5

Sony Xperia M5

 

While we'll be working hard to get the above, this is not a definite of course wink

Cant wait to hear from you all!

I've always wanted to try a Tab, now that phone screens are so much bigger I'd like to see the advantages of having a tab and if I'd actually use it over my phone, or even replace my beloved laptop!

I've eyed them up for ages but I always worry that after the novelty wears off I'll stop using it. It's a fair bit of money to just sit on the shelf after 2 weeks.

I must admit .. I'd be lost without my tablet.. And only use the laptop for my daughter's iPod..also now that I've. Jumped ship from HTC to Samsung.. A tab is the logical next step lol x

Well after our tablets getting stolen, we're really, really feeling the loss... They're used daily and without them I'm having to mess around on the laptop to do things I could do on my tablet, anywhere and much more quickly.!

@Anonymous I guess it depends on what you'd use one for, but personally mine (when it's not been nicked, grrr) was used daily. Perfect opportunity to borrow one here though to gauge poss usage.

Thanks @Toby the community were super helpful (as always) advising me how to remove TuGo from the stolen device. It's great being able to get the info you need without being on hold to cs.

I'd maybe like to see an iPad on the TTT list, especially as I'm browsing new tablets atm. Although I'm definitely getting an Android tablet, I'd be interested in checking out one of the (larger preferably) iPad's as I've never used one.

I've always fancied the Samsungs to be honest, I've seen plenty of demos of them so I know they're a good bit of kit. We have an Ipad for the kids but I never use it, but I prefer Android so that might be the reason.

 

@gindygoo I think for me it's mostly when I'm upstairs, maybe catching up on TV while 'im indoors is trying to sleep or just general browsing which I sometimes find a pain on my phone.
