Strong
3.8
(14)
"Once your comfortable,pull the trigger and do a year. Plus it's the best deal."
"Once you understand how it works, that the seller can disappear, die, move away, what have you and you're still going to be able to access the main server, buying anything but a year for the savings you get buying in that way would just be silly."
"I paid $19 for a year and $28 for the app (one time payment) Mainly use it for cricket."
"After a month and if I like it I tend to go for a year as the savings for most is well worth it."
"Free trial - To see if I like the service being sold. 3 months - I hate just trialing things for one month as any service can have a good month."
"Go with the yearly because it’s the cheapest option (most of the time) and when for whatever reason your sub doesn't work anymore after a few months just get another one…"
"One month if I like it then three months and finally one year."
"I have always bought 12 months, mainly because the cost savings were always good when getting 12 months. But now there isn't much to be saved getting 12 months."
"It’s about 25 €/$ for a year so I don’t really know if the word "risk" is right here."
"One month to start and test it to see if you like it. After that, if you are okay with the risk of signing up for a year and will not be too upset if tomorrow it is gone then go for a year."

Xbox

(8)
"Yes. Xbox with gamepass is better."
"GamePass helped me try out a bunch of franchises I never got to give a chance before."
"I've played more games than I have in the last two years combined for like half the cost of one brand new game."
"Since I subscribed to gamepass I have played *so* many games I normally would not have spent money for and really loved a lot of them."
"Yes game pass ultimate is fabulous value"
"I’ve never been happier gaming than I am right now with an Xbox Series X and Game Pass."
"Gamepass ultimate is the best value in gaming but if you only play a few games, mostly multiplayer games... Gamespass ultimate is not for you."
"I only get game pass 2 or 3 months out of the year when a couple games I actually want to play build up."

Perplexity
4.7
(7)
"It's a great tool for fact-checking and research."
"Eliminating Google is biggest benefit."
"It has become my primary search tool, it has replaced all of my Google searches."
"Unless you are using large context lengths for coding or writing, Perplexity offers dramatically superior answers due to it’s multi-step online research/RAG capability."
"Perplexity is beast for research."
"Depends on your needs for reasoning vs. context/token limit."
"It is a good first round research tool."

Perplexity Pro
3.9
(8)
"Perplexity Pro first of all is absolutely worth it imo. It’s my favorite tool of the last few months and I can’t see a scenario where I wouldn’t use it going forward."
"Thats what i have. Perplexity Pro gives me best of all worlds."
"Check if you can get perplexity pro for free for a year then you can keep both."
"Perplexity Pro has a completely different purpose than ChatGPT. One is a research tool. One is a generation tool."
"Well perplexity has smaller context window but if you tend to have longer chats perplexity is the winner not only do you get 500 pro searches a day with access to the internet."
"Perplexity Pro does a good job for web searches and providing context and sources as a search replacement but is not creative like ChatGPT."
"Perplexity pro offers a very mini version of prompt replies compared to chatgpt plus."
"I actually cancelled my perplexity pro and moved to Claude."
