Sacrifice Boulevard – Fan Edition or Flagship?

When choosing a budget or mid-range phone over a flagship, it’s often Sacrifice Boulevard when you look at the specs sheet. Because in order to make it a budget or mid-range product, it’ll cut corners – those ‘sacrifices‘ – in order to also cut the price. My ownership of the base Galaxy S21 ‘flagship’ is…

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 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 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…

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…
