Let's Talk Tech
How powerful is the Pixel 6 Pro?
How fast is Tensor? We can finally dig into some numbers! Taking a look at some benchmarks and tests, we can give this new SOC its first comparison against some other premium phones of this year. We’re JUST starting the conversation on this phone, but even in these early days, competition is fun.

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!”
Not a review, but sharing some thoughts on using the Pixel Buds A-Series for about a week.
