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 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…

iOS 14 Review: Good Effort, But Confusing Additions Let It Down
I recently installed iOS 14 on my iPhone 6S, and have now been using the OS about 2 months. While I think I’ve already ruled out new iPhone’s as my Next Phone, I’m still interested to see what Apple has done to their mobile operating system. So, without further ado, here’s my take on the…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 10 – Samsung One UI features I love
A slight detour for this post. While I’ve ruled out most of the budget or mid-range Samsung’s, due to the enormous size of their screens, the S20 is still a possibility, and retains many of the features I’ve come to love since 2016. The only thing is, admittedly, I’ve been rather vague on those details…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 9 – Pixel 4a 5G, and Pixel 5
Just to wrap up my previous blog, I was discussing other options to the Pixel 4a – before I got sidetracked and discussed the importance of software vs hardware on smartphone photography. I discussed how the only other smartphone in the Pixel 4a’s price range, that I was considering, was the Moto G 5G Plus.…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 8 – Google’s Pixel 4a
£349. Straight away, that price is a headline feature. Although just because it’s a lot cheaper than an iPhone 11 Pro Max, doesn’t mean it’s any less of a device. Looks can be deceiving, and in this case they are, but for the right reasons: for £349, it comes with a 5.81″ inch 1080p OLED…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 7 – Google’s Pixel phones
For the past few months, I’ve been playing Watch Dogs 2 on my Xbox One S, and I’ve loved every minute of it. It’s set in San Francisco, and even features a replica Palo Alto, and tech campus for Nudle – the in-game equivalent of Google. The colours, the vibrancy, the playfulness, and the general…

My Next Phone, 2021: Part 4 – Thoughts
As I mentioned at the tail end of my last blog, it’s unfortunate that my next phone might not be a Samsung Galaxy device, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. While I do like their phones, and the One UI skin, other OEM’s appear to have stepped up their game, and are now not…
