People who use a Mac with an Android phone, how’s your experience?

I’ve been using iPhones since 2013, but I’m getting pretty bored with iOS lately. I’ve been eyeing the Galaxy S25 Ultra because I really love its design, and as a software developer, I’m a huge fan of macOS.

But I’m curious, if any of you are using a Mac with an Android phone, how’s the experience? Is the interoperability good? What’s missing? Any major issues you’ve encountered? Just curious to hear about your experience and how things work between the two ecosystems!

Looking forward to heari...

Sony Xperia 1 V review in 2025

So I used to daily an S20 Ultra (G988U) I bought last year and was very very dissapointed. Between bloatware, factory camera defects and especially locked bootloader I was just looking for an excuse to buy a new phone. While searching around for a phone I stumbled on an article about Sony Xperia 1 VI and fell in love with it. I looked around, found a Sony Xperia 1 V for 400 euros refurbished and took the chance

Screen: This is by far the best upgrade for me. The 4K 21:9 120HZ screen is so nice ...
