My Next Phone, 2021: The Final Four (Chapter 1 – Moto G30)

Pixel 4a, Pixel 5, Galaxy S21, Moto G30. These are the final four devices in my shortlist. The Moto G30 is a late entry, mainly because it wasn’t even a consideration until my Dad bought one for himself, and I was so impressed – and shocked – by it, that I wanted to review it.…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 25 – Moto G30 review

Pixel 4a, Pixel 5, Galaxy S21. These are the final three devices in my shortlist. At least, that’s what I was hoping to write, until my Dad just bought his new phone. He’s just bought himself the Motorola G30. Here in the UK, it’s only just been released in stores this week, and he needed…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 24 – Xperia 5 II, iPhone 6s, and S9 Plus – an experiment, and a realisation
I summed up my last blog by eliminating the Galaxy S20 and S20 FE from my shortlist, but adding the base Galaxy S21. That means the S21 joins the Pixel 4a, the Pixel 5 and the Xperia 5 II on my shortlist. But, the same thing that I have found is a positive for the…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 23 – Samsung’s Galaxy S21, and my new dilemma
The specs of the new Galaxy S21 leave a lot to be desired. Compared to the Galaxy S20, the newer Galaxy S21 may be cheaper, but there’s several reasons for that, and I’ll go through them one by one: No charger in box Firstly, after mocking Apple for not shipping phones with chargers, Samsung has…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 22 – Galaxy S21 vs Galaxy S20 FE
In my last blog, I established that the Galaxy S21 would be a great choice. But seeing as it’s a cheaper option than the S20, I thought I’d go back and compare it to the S20 FE. Although neither the Galaxy S20 or S20 FE are options for me personally, I still want to know…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 21 – Galaxy S21 has entered the chat
Even though I wasn’t initially interested in the S20 FE, in my last post I analysed its potential, its problems and concluded that it – and the S20 – were no longer considerations. But that doesn’t mean Samsung is off the table altogether. Enter the Galaxy S21 series, Samsung’s effort to recapture its audience with…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 20 – has the Galaxy S20 FE replaced the S20?
As you may be aware, I talked in my last post about the possibility of owning a new iPhone 12. Also, in a couple of blog posts before that, I talked extensively about the pros & cons of my shortlist of devices: the Pixel 4a; Pixel 5; Samsung Galaxy S20; and, the Sony Xperia 5…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 19 – is the iPhone 12 mini an option?
Apple released the iPhone 12 series in September 2020, and it’s given me food for thought. While I’m not really a fan of iPhones, I did buy an iPhone 6s in 2019, and overall the experience has been okay. I still prefer Android as a platform, but I must say, I’m very impressed with the…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 18 – Black Friday came and went
I haven’t blogged for a while, and that’s because I’d hoped this blog would be me saying which phone I chose, and a mini review of it. Well, things haven’t exactly gone according to plan. Black Friday and Cyber Monday came and went, and although there were a lot of deals, I still couldn’t make…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 17 – more thoughts
Taking into account my previous two blogs – one about the Micro SD card slot, and the other about the Pixel 5 – I think I’ve now come to the conclusion that if I were to upgrade now, the Galaxy S20 would be the perfect phone for me. I’ve taken on board advice I read…
