Living next to major road

Current flat is facing a 6 Lane road. Even at 6am, the noise is terrible from all the buses and trucks as they started work.

This never bothered me before. All my life I lived in places near the roads.

But as I get older, I started to appreciate quietness and serenity. Must be from all those stress as a family man!

Can't wait to move to new place. It should be quieter but there's a small two way road on the side but the rooms are not facing it and to the left is another unit which hopefully filters off any noises.
There's a bus stop though, so the freaking early buses noises will probably be there. But indirect facing will sure cut down the db levels.

Pretty cool stuff
Bought it years ago when holidaying in Osaka Universal studios at on 1800yen as it was on sale
Made in Japan!

Wow, just realized this item is now a collector item selling at over 200USD!

Lets see how much I can fetch since I have no intention nor time  to build it or display

Samsung galaxy s5

New phone for wifey

Impressive specs as expected for a flagship
Very light
Screen is high quality
Plastics are good quality

But somehow the interface is not as smooth as a windows phone. Maybe it is the bloatwares that are running. I'll have to tune this
