Let's Talk Tech
Xiaomi 17 Ultra review time!
I waited until Samsung Unpacked. I really wanted to have the Galaxy announcement fresh in my mind when I finished writing up my experiences on this Xiaomi. More than just “which device is betterer” in some stupid singular benchmark, I tried to consider “which company’s business model would I want to support more”.

Musk is in court trying to explain tweets that shook up company stock prices. LibreOffice scores a win against the EU. Oracle is slashing jobs as datacenter funding dries up. Nvidia slowing investments in OpenAI, and OpenAI hits the brakes on Adult Content. Google is absolutely ripping off websites and hurting their traffic. Vivo is showing off some hot new BIG camera sensors on the X300 Ultra.
And we have to chat about these new MacBooks!
Let’s get our tech week started off RIGHT!

Infinix Note 60 Ultra Review!
I’ve always enjoyed Infinix for being a budget brand that offers up HUGE value. We can always count on good performance at a low price.
After reviewing the Note 60 Pro, it’s been interesting to see what the brand can do when they set their sights higher and move up the pricing food chain. While I often mock labels on phones like “pro” and “ultra”, the Note 60 Ultra does set itself apart from it’s more modest “pro” sibling.

It’s a crazy week launching all the big headlines from MWC 2026!
Robots, and AI, and WACKY new phones!
Plus we should spend a little time discussing Samsung’s “new” Galaxy S phones.
We’re keeping this week’s show a little more casual, but we’ll still get our tech week started off RIGHT!

Xiaomi 17 Ultra Camera CONCLUSION!
Taking just the results from my deep dive, here are some of my thoughts on Xiaomi’s newest Ultra! It’s the best camera phone of 2026, but is it worthy of being a LEICA camera? Continue reading “Xiaomi 17 Ultra Camera Conclusion: Worthy of the Leica Red Dot?”
It’s an AI heavy episode, and I’m bringing out some big guns!
OpenAI is making some hardware, and while that’s kinda stupid, we’re REALLY more concerned about the plans for adult content. Disney and Paramount are putting pressure on Bytedance to remove copyrighted characters from Seedance Gen AI tools. Google and Microsoft are trying to find influencers to promote AI, but fewer are taking the cash.
And I have a chat with Michael Nordquist, VP of Product Marketing at AMD, to talk about the hardware side of consumer AI.
Let’s get our tech week started off RIGHT!
Infinix Note 60 Pro review!
This is a budget line of phones, easily undercutting the price of the Pixel A series, and yet, this is now going toe to toe with premium mid-rangers. This phone punches WELL above its price tag.
WHY CAN’T I BUY ONE HERE?!?!? Continue reading “Infinix Note 60 Pro: Why Can’t We Have This Phone in the USA?”
Vivo V70 review!
The NON-ELITE version of this phone might be the better buy? Vivo makes some of the best camera phones on the market, and the mid-priced V series phones score some fancy new features! Considering the target audience though, I think most folks should stick with the cheaper version of the V70.
Allow me to explain… Continue reading “Vivo V70 Smartphone Review: Maybe you don’t need the Elite?”
