    Sony Xperia 1 IV

    My prediction is that it'll be everything I want in a 2022 phone but I can't get it because my carrier won't enable VoLTE because they don't sell it.

    Blokada. Vanced for Youtube.

    Do you remember your history of smartphones?

    It seems I have a bad habit, I don't even always upgrade but I almost always buy and sell used: Nexus One, HTC G2, Samsung Note 1, HTC One X, Galaxy S4, LG G2, HTC 10, Nexus 6P, Essential PH1, Pixel 2XL, iPhone 11, Asus ROG 2, Pixel 3a, Galaxy Note 10+ (current).

    Will you upgrade to the S22 ultra?

    My Note10+ gets security updates until next year so I'll think about the S23 Ultra at that point.

    OSOM OV1 is the new phone from the team behind the Essential Phone

    I owned the PH-1. It was a pretty good phone with some significant weaknesses as well as an essentially (hah) useless gimmick. If not for Essential's founder's personal problems sinking the company, the PH-2 could have been very interesting. With that said, I'm not sure what this phone could...

    Pixel 6 / Pixel 6 Pro / Pixel 6a

    Just don't use it? You can choose to pattern/pin/password/etc.

    Pixel 6 / Pixel 6 Pro / Pixel 6a

    I've been switching between caseless and cased, but I find that curved glass really ruins the experience without a case. There always seems to be a situation where palm rejection doesn't quite work perfectly, rare but just often enough to be annoying. How are those of you with the Pro finding...

    Pixel 6 / Pixel 6 Pro / Pixel 6a

    That's adaptive battery taking place and background app optimization finishing up.

    Pixel 6 / Pixel 6 Pro / Pixel 6a

    Is that with the Pro? One thing the S21 Ultra is really good at is capturing detailed zoom photos of the moon.

    Pixel 6 / Pixel 6 Pro / Pixel 6a

    Yeah, people hate when I point this out but Google has been playing catch up to Samsung's design language ever since One UI. I'm not actually a huge fan of One UI but A12 clearly borrows a lot from it and if even "stock Android" is going all-in space wasting, then the more polished One UI is...

    iPhone 14

    You've got to think they'll do a redesign after so many years of the iPhone X design.

    Pixel 6 / Pixel 6 Pro / Pixel 6a

    Oh yeah, I adjusted dpi on my 3a right away after getting A12. Way too information sparse.

    Sony Xperia 1 iii

    But it's lighter, has a 3.5mm and microsd slot! I kid but it's the reality now that those just aren't available elsewhere.

    Sony Xperia 1 iii

    I had been looking at the 5 III and this 1 III but the carriers in Canada won't enable VoLTE so I had to drop the idea. It's a shame because despite the weirdly long aspect ratio, the phones have all the features I want.

    Pixel 6 / Pixel 6 Pro / Pixel 6a

    I like the external audio section near the end because it gives you a very good comparison of what the phones sounds like in comparison to the S21 and iPhone (this reviewer is an audio engineer). Have your headphones on.
