    I Pre-Ordered The OnePlus 8 Pro

    I pre-ordered the OnePlus 8 Pro with 12 GB RAM + 256 GB Storage in UltraMarine Blue. Along with my pre-order I got OnePlus Bullets Wireless Earbuds and a OnePlus Warp Charge 30 WireLess Charger, both free. Apparently I was lucky to get my pre-order in early because I read that they sold out...

    Fingerprint Sensor Disappointing

    So far, I like everything about the S20+ except the in-screen fingerprint sensor. The fingerprint sensor is too small and it only works about 75% of the time. The in-screen fingerprint sensor on my OnePlus 7 Pro was far superior. BTW, the S20+ still has the factory installed screen protector...

    Goodbye Pixel 3

    The Pixel 3 turned out to be too small for me so I pre-ordered the Galaxy S10+ from Samsung. At almost 80 years of age my old eyes and unsteady hands need the larger display. Also, I use Bluetooth to stream from my phone to my hearing aids. That consumes a lot of battery, so I need the larger...

    Anxiously Awaiting US Release Of Honor View 10

    From what I've read, the Honor View 10 will be available in the US in February, 2018 for $500 or less. I think I've learned my lesson and will never again spend a small fortune to purchase a flagship phone from Samsung, LG, or HTC. Based on everything I've read, the View 10 could be the...

    Mate 9 Has Become My Favorite Phone

    I’m always curious about Android phones other than Samsung and I wanted to see what all the “Huawei Hype” was about. I purchased a Mate 9 and started using it as my daily driver. Much to my surprise, I preferred the Mate 9 to my Samsung Note 8. I’m going to turn 79 this year and both my vision...

    Here's a link to an article about an app that lets you theme more than 35 system application overlays and more than 10 third-party applications’ overlays. In addition, a universal selector for having either a “Light” theme or a “Dark” theme activated is available as well. Moreover, there’s more...

    Post your Galaxy Note 8 Home Screen

    One of the great features of Android phones, especially Samsung phones, is the ability to change launchers, themes, icons, wallpaper, and apps. I think it will be interesting if we share what we've done with our Note 8s. Here's mine: Launcher: Nova Prime. I love the ability it gives me to...

    I Bought A Samsung S8 From Cricket

    I’m one of those unfortunate folks who purchased a Samsung Note 7, had it recalled, received a replacement and then had that recalled. I wound up with an S7 Edge; nice phone, but I missed the Note 7 -- it was the best phone I'd ever had, even though I rarely used the S-Pen. I’m not one to...
