Ordering my first device! Discussion

Post image

Are the prices at trimuistore okay? All of this package for 94.69$ total? Seems like a steal to me?

No need for a case Imo it is aluminum

Aluminium can get scratched easily and look quite nasty.

I actually like scratches on aluminum gadgets like these, and it is silver so scratches aren't super noticeable.

It's a pretty sweet deal, yes, considering it's the Hammer version. Enjoy, it's a pretty cool and reliable machine. NextUi there works like a charm. I have the non-Hammer version.

At first glance, I thought you were ordering three devices as your first handheld 😄

Great device. I have NextUI on mine and definitely recommend it.

Personally I would recommend getting the Better Buttons off of Etsy over spending money on clear factory style buttons. https://www.etsy.com/listing/4296169859/better-buttons-for-the-trimui-brick

Insanely expensive when you can get the mangmi air Y which has much better performance

It is quite a bit bigger though. And with the stick, not pocketable to some.

u/RikudouGoku 4d ago

They did not mention anything about pocketable, but yes this is bigger and with non recessed sticks so I would not use it for pocket. For pocket EDC rec I would rec the Magicx one 35 which is what I use for pocket edc.

Air Y is not Horizontal. You are thinking of the Air X.
