    Best place to sell used tech & electronics?

    I've accumulated soooo many "devices" over the years. Many of the devices I'll probably never sell, purely out of nostalgia (T-Mobile G1, Motorola XOOM, Google Glass, Palm Pre etc...), but others I'm needlessly holding onto for no reason (unused chromebooks, tablets, phones, 360 cameras, OG HTC...

    Android Authority Editors Choice

    Doing some perusing of other tech sites as I work on EBC and saw this "Editors Choice" image on Android Authority: Am I being a nitpick or should that be Editor's Choice or Editors' Choice? Seems like the most ironic of typos lol

    Best way to protect phone camera lens?

    I got the Galaxy S20 Ultra specifically for its beastly camera but over a couple years it got dings and scratches that eventually made it unusable.
