(Long) Thoughts after Week 1 with the Z Fold 3

I'm a long-time tech enthusiast and power user, and I'm frequently an early adopter. My phone is such an essential tool, however, that I held off on trying a Fold until the third generation because I didn't feel like the technology was fully mature yet. Reading the reviews of the Fold 3 convinced me that the it was time to give the new form factor a try, and my impressions after the first week have borne that out.

This post is intended for people who have a similar user profile, and are...

After seeing videos of flooding in New York, I think water resistance should be a universal feature.

Water resistance is usually seen as a feature only available on high-end premium smartphones, but I think communication between our loved ones is more essential than ever, especially in the middle of a hurricane. I want the feature to come to more entry-level smartphones, not just for everyone here in North America, but for everyone in third world countries where storms and flooding are almost routine to them. No one should ever have to pay a premium to ensure peace of mind when it comes to comm...

Black Shark 4 5G - thoughts after a month

So I realise this isn't really a popular phone by any stretch, but I've been having a hard time finding much in the way of reviews from people who've actually used this handset for any length of time so I thought I'd put some thoughts together after a few weeks of use for anyone interested/considering it.


User Profile

I'm using this as a "personal" phone while my iPhone is repurposed for work. So basically anything that isn't work or banking related is happening on this phone. My main use...

2021 Tablets state.

I'm so pissed. It's 2021, long since Netflix and AmazonPrime, and from all these tablet-manufacturers NOT EVEN ONE offers a tablet with these 2 features at core:

1) NO CAMERAS
Why do I need (not only front camera - where u can say u do calls and such). BUT ALSO a fucking back camera. WTF. When we all know even a $200 phone has better camera. Why do I have to have some useless lump on the back that ruins both aesthetics , cost more to produce, and makes the tablet rock on the table.

2) ...
