Let's Talk Tech
Desktop mode on a VIVO! I tested the Vivo X500PM when I first got it, and even though it was on Android 17 and Origin OS7, it failed to send an alternate video signal out when connected to another display. Following a recent update, this has not only changed, but Vivo now has one of the better solutions for desktop style computing on an Android device!
It’s real ya’ll! It’s REAL good!
Huge thanks to Discord user Rob A for pointing it out!
Vivo X500 Pro Max Global Edition review!
The camera kit arrived, and it’s full of accessories! Vivo delivered one of the best phones of NEXT year, so let’s take a tour around the hardware! Here are my early experiences using the phone, thoughts on the new Dimensity chip, and highlights on this new camera tech!
Let’s GO!
Believe it or not, I’m only just now seriously getting started on this phone.
In the same way that I might hold for an update on a phone brand I like, it’s important to me, that I treat devices I don’t like the same way.
Sadly, this is also a poor business decision for me. Allow me to rant-explain for a minute… or eight…
The Titan 2 has been out for a little while.
I couldn’t wait any longer to spend some time with a keyboard phone. After a price hike and a promise to improve the software support, the Unihertz was the best current option available to play with.
Which is good, because a pal of ours here on the Patreon has been working on an interesting launcher… Continue reading “This makes keyboard phones better! (Mink Launcher on the Unihertz Titan 2)”
Vivo X300 Ultra Long Term Review!
It’s tough shooting a review, or a longer term follow up to a phone, where the majority of the video is me saying “it WAS my favorite phone of the year, and it still IS my favorite phone of the year”.
Still, I felt after a couple months, it was worth chatting about the experience. What’s changed? What’s improved? How have the accessories held up?

Tank 5 Pro Review!
The most absurd phone on the market gets MORE PRO! It’s not terrifically different from the Tank 5, but the 5 Pro has one new feature you might want on a rugged phone! Continue reading “8849 Tank 5 Pro Rugged Phone Review! One Important Update…”
I woke up early on Wednesday to help get my daughter ready for school. I was enjoying a lazy morning, content in the thought that I had hours to go before the Made By Google event launching all the new Pixels. Instead of gearing up to write and shoot reactions at 10am, Google was pushing “GO” at 3pm pacific. I’d even be able to enjoy a lunch while writing up a few notes. No rush at all. Nice.
While enjoying my morning coffee I scrolled through some feeds, and saw that the reviewer embargo had already lifted on Pixel 11 Pros. The “reviews” were already live, and the event wasn’t going to happen for another seven hours.
Pixel 10 Pro XL Long term review!
Google’s most expensive slate phone of last year! I bought it at launch, and had a lot of plans to cover it for apps and updates. Now the Pixel 11 is right around the corner, how has the 10 Pro aged? Is there anything exciting for us to look forward to?
