I am on the opposite end with the battery life. When I first had P3a, I was charging it maybe twice a week. Same experience with P6a.

Now on P8, it seems a bit worse, but still I get easily 2 days from 80% battery.

I'm embracing no play services on my main profile. In general I don't have any addictive apps(redreader was the worst) on the phone, so don't spend that much time on it.

This. Surely not the fastest way to get content from/to a remote computer, but it just works as soon as you enable sshd.

Got 3060 in a laptop. Updating is like a box of chocolate. You never know what will break.

On the other hand.. 6800XT in my desktop. No issues whatsoever in the last 4 years. It just works since I installed it.

I used to update my Fenix 3 by downloading BIN files from Garmin website and just dropping it onto the watch's filesystem.

For EPO I used https://github.com/scrapper/postrunner

First you need to define your requirements.

  1. Is just for browsing and the router will be connected to a VDSL link with something like 100/250mbit?
  2. Are you planning to have a server at home and transfer a lot of data within your LAN and need a lot of throughput?

If it's 1, then you can get a bunch of used ac routers, something like Archer C5 or C7, flash OpenWRT on it and configure 802.11r within your LAN. This requires some fiddling, but you don't need to spend a lot of money on a decent mesh.

For 2, well you with with €200 budget it's going to be trikcy.

MacBook replacement is difficult even when you don't limit yourself at all. I doubt you will find something with a build quality, display, battery life and thermals, in EU, that would come close to Macbooks. Therefore set you expectations right.

I'd add XMG to the brands mentioned here.
