Let's Talk Tech
While some of the most expensive phones of the year are shipping out to people who pre-ordered, I thought it would be kinda fun to chat about the LEAST expensive phone I could get my hands on this year!
Question for you. When is a cheap phone TOO cheap? I’m spending some time with the Nuu X6 Plus, and it’s interesting taking an inexpensive phone for a spin.
Let’s chat. Continue reading “Budget phones: When is Cheap, TOO Cheap? (Feat. Nuu X6 Plus)”
We love phone showdowns. People cheer their “team”. We get emotionally invested in the products we buy and use.
It’s surprisingly difficult to properly divide up phones into categories where those comparisons are fair. It’s casually easy to look at a landscape of phones under $500 and pick a few for a fight. If you’ve followed my videos and reviews, you know I really like to get more specific about what KIND of device a phone might be.
I don’t think price is the decider as much as functionality or the target consumer demographic.
We should compare “communicator” phones against other communicator phones. Content creation phones should be compared against other creator phones. Gaming phones should be compared against gaming phones (and the Nintendo Switch).
With all that said, allow me to be a hypocrite as I purposely select two phones to fight based on price! Continue reading “Google Pixel 5A vs iPhone SE: What real competition looks like!”

And let’s dig into the Pixel 5A a little bit…
Let’s get our tech week started right!

Pixel 5A First impressions!
And boy howdy is THIS PHONE BORING! But seriously tho, maybe that’s OK? Maybe it’s ok to just give us better battery life and the promise of solid long term support. Maybe “exciting” isn’t what a lot of consumers need right now?
Let’s chat… Continue reading “The Pixel 5A is BORING!”
I certainly have a reputation for being the CABLED audio nerd. I genuinely believe in cabled audio as the best solution for quality and consistency. That does NOT mean I don’t enjoy some Bluetooth solutions for convenience and noise reduction. I’m not about to take my really fancy open-back cans on a road trip or flight.
The headphones I’ve been using the most over the last two years took a dive onto tile, and unfortunately did not survive. My Wife took pity on me, and for my birthday, she hooked me up with a pair of Sony WH-1000XM4s!
In a fancy blue color no less.
Using them for a couple days now, I’m as impressed as I was when I got to test drive some XM3’s, and I already have some thoughts on what Sony might do for the XM5’s.
Let’s nerd out on some GOOD travel audio! Continue reading “Six Things Sony NEEDS to NOT do to Their Next Headphones! WH-1000XM5 Success?”
