Reddit, Galaxy S21 – How-To Guide: switch navigation types via One Hand Operation+

On Reddit, I noticed a query from a fellow Galaxy S21 user who was trying to switch navigation bar types quickly, without having to keep diving deep into the Settings menu. My solution worked, and the query was solved. But just in case you can’t see it, I’ll leave the question (and my answer) below…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 31 – Final Verdict

This is it. This is the result of a 9 month search for My Next Phone. I’ve made my decision, and I’m currently typing this blog on my new phone. But which phone did I go for? The Galaxy S21, or Moto G30? Well, drum roll please… I went for the Samsung Galaxy S21. Why…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 30 – the final four becomes the final two

Moto G30 vs Galaxy S21 Here we are, then. The Final Four becomes the Final Two. I’ve said goodbye to the Pixel 4a and Pixel 5, and now I’m left with just the Motorola Moto G30 and Samsung Galaxy S21 5G. This isn’t going to be an easy choice, but it’s the one I’ve been…

My Next Phone, 2021: The Final Four (Chapter 4 ‐ Galaxy S21)

Right. I’ve now posted about the Moto G30, the Pixel 4a, and the Pixel 5. I’ve considered everything that is relevant to me, and have decided that the Pixel 4a and Pixel 5 are sadly no longer in the running. That means it’s now between the Moto G30 and Galaxy S21 – the final four…

My Next Phone, 2021: The Final Four (Chapter 3 – Pixel 5)

As I admitted in my previous blog post about the Pixel 4a, my opinion on Pixel’s changed when Google released the Pixel 4a in August 2020. After the release of the Pixel 4a, I wanted a Pixel, and my time playing Watch Dogs 2 – and running around the ‘Nudle‘ base (the fictional version of…

My Next Phone, 2021: The Final Four (Chapter 2 – Pixel 4a)

Pixel 4a No introduction, I’m going straight in… Firstly, water resistance is non-existent. No IP rating, and various reports on Reddit – like mere raindrops killing phones – means the Pixel 4a’s unfortunately out of the running. It’s a shame, because the Pixel 4a is the phone that’s solely responsible for making this decision so…

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 14 – Xperia 5 II, Pixel 4a, Pixel 5, Galaxy S20
In my previous blog, I explored the Xperia 5 II in detail, but now I think I’m ready to make a decision. Thing is, this could go one of 4 ways, and I’m not quite sure which… yet. Samsung Galaxy S20 Let me just say, this is the perfect new phone for me. It has…

This is Part 2 of 2. For Part 1 of this blog, see here. Xperia 5 II – 16mm Ultrawide This is where things get interesting. The Pixel 4a only has 1 rear camera – but it’s a really good one. The Pixel 5 has the same standard camera, as well as an ultrawide lens…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 12 – Am I an Xperian? (1/2)
When the Sony Xperia 1 II launched earlier this year, I was hyped. It was a flagship phone, with the camera spec sheet I wanted, the 3.5mm headphone port made a return (after being missing on 2019’s Sony Xperia 1), & had the unique 21:9 aspect ratio that set Sony apart from its competitors. The…
