Thoughts on the iPhone SE

     Apple recently released the new iPhone SE. To be completely honest, I don't really like it. One major difference from the iPhone 6 and 6s is it's size. It looks exactly like an iPhone 5, which is not a good thing.

     Especially for me, going from a massive 5.5 inch iPhone 6 plus to just 4 inches, it's hard. I don't think I could get used to it. Just holding my old iPhone 5 is really weird, and it's extremely hard to type on it because of how many mistakes I make. This iPhone is like a 6s packed into a tiny little case. It has the same 12-megapixel camera, and even the same A9 processor. For me, this isn't enough of a difference to upgrade. The display is 1336 x 640 which would be a downgrade for my 1920 x 1080 iPhone 6 Plus.

     To conclude, I don't recommend upgrading to this new phone. If you have an iPhone 6, 6 plus, 6s, or 6s plus, stick to that. I hope this helped, thanks for reading!

Thoughts About Basketball Shoes

     So as I mentioned in another blog of mine, basketball shoes are a pretty major topic in society these days.

     I used to collect these shoes back in elementary school. At that time, they weren't too expensive, prices ranged from $60-$100 for a pair of shoes. Now, they range from $150-$250. In my opinion, this is ridiculous. The major brands are Nike, Adidas, and Under Armour. Under Armour is still pretty small but they're growing. You can get players' shoes like Kobe's, Lebron's, KD's, Curry's which are great, but usually a little more expensive. The most recent pair of Kobe's shoes, the Kobe 11's are $200. I used to get them for around $85. Kobe confirmed that he's going to continue his line of sneakers after he retires. That's great news. The sneaker community now is way bigger with more people collecting more shoes. Unfortunately I left that community and I don't know if I'll ever join back but I might in the future.

Kobe Bryant's Last Game

    So on Wednesday, April 13, 2016, Kobe Bryant had his last game of his career. Now in my opinion, this was one of the best games in NBA history. Kobe started off with a rough, slow start missing 5 shots in a row but by the end of the game, he hit 60 points. He set the record for the most points in someone's final career game and oldest player to score 60+ points.

     Personally, since the Lakers have been doing pretty bad for the last few years, I thought they would lose this. They only caught up toward the end of the last quarter. The head coach of the Lakers put Kobe in the game for 36 minutes instead of the usual 24 he plays. Since he's pretty old this was a lot to ask but it came in handy since he scored over half the points. The rest of his teammates deserve some credit to, because if it weren't for them he wouldn't have had the ball passed to him. Most chances they got, they fed Kobe the ball.

     Now I'm going to wrap up the blog. I hope you enjoyed! Stay tuned for more.

Peyton Manning

     So because of the most recent Super Bowl 50, the one between the Denver Broncos and the Carolina Panthers, you might know Peyton Manning. Peyton Manning was the quarterback for the Denver Broncos, and led them to victory in the super bowl. I say "was" because he is retired. His last season, he won a super bowl. In my opinion, that's pretty crazy.

     Peyton Manning is going down in history as the best NFL quarterback of all time. He is 40 years old, and played 18 seasons in the NFL. He got MVP 5 time, was in the super bowl 4 times, and won a super bowl twice. Peyton is the only quarterback to earn 200 total wins in the postseason and regular season. Peyton was born into a football family. His father, Archie Manning, is also an NFL quarterback and his brother, Eli Manning, is the current quarterback for the New York Giants. I hope you enjoyed my blog and stay tuned for more!
