Don’t get me wrong. Apple removing audio jack was the biggest facepalm in smartphone history. And you can thank it for not being able to make an upgrade without sacrificing audio jack (and SD card too :/). But USB-C is getting standardized everywhere now (laptops, smartphones, etc.). What makes USB-C earphones not worth the...

Too many perfectly usable phones are put into a questionable security situation by lack of vendor support for keeping key software up to date....

Turning Wi-Fi, data on/off on Android 12 is more difficult compared to previous versions. You have to stretch your fingers to the top of the screen to access quick settings, tap the new internet tile (no actual quick toggles) and that will open a menu for toggling wifi and data....

Hello, everybody, I’ve been thinking to move on from my Spotify subscription to move to Tidal or Deezer. I want to try out HIFI audio, but still get a good and stable experience. Are there any suggestions for which one I should pick? Could you also tell about your experience with those apps, or are there any other you would...

It’s hard to find a game without IAP (in app purchases) these days and that’s a shame as Pay 2 Win really isn’t about skill, it’s just how much you can sink in. That said, developers often need to incentive to keep developing a game and to pay for the costs such as servers, etc. I remember there were a few games that...

is there any launcher out there which has got offline OCR support in recents like the Pixel Launcher? Not talking about the Google lens implementation in recents menu here.

Simple question really! Are any of you running a Custom ROM? Furthermore, are any of you running a De-Googled ROM?...

I got a samsung j3 2016 which can’t connect to LTE. I read that this phone can’t connect anymore to 4g (only 2g) after the provider (TIM from Italy) removed 3g antennas. It’s like the phone is not in the provider whitelist (first time I hear about it). Is it legal? Is it possible to bypass the block without going root or...

Hello! I have been trying to find a more modern phone with a headphone jack that functions on Verizon in the US. I’m still rocking the Samsung Note 8 and while it’s been a good phone, it’s REALLY showing its age lately and I’m trying to upgrade....

I’m into Photography as one of my hobbies, but the curse of using a Sony camera is that they don’t have GPS built into their bodies. On top of that, their app which is supposed to connect to your camera via bluetooth sucks, and often loses connection randomly (or doesn’t get a connection at all) leaving many, or all,...
