    I just tried the iPhone 15 Pro — and this is the most underrated upgrade

    All I can tell anyone is that I actually was able to order a 15 Pro in titanium a couple of minutes after pre-orders began, with delivery set for the release date of September 22. Then, a few hours later, I canceled the order. Other than the weight savings from the titanium, the entire phone...

    I just tried the iPhone 15 Pro — and this is the most underrated upgrade

    I’m sure the weight savings is very noticeable - and very desirable. I also agree with Mark’s assertion that if small phones are going away, it’s a good thing that the larger ones are being made lighter. I have an iPhone 15 Pro in my cart - lined up for a one-click pre-order on September 15th...

    iPhone 15 Pro could be Apple’s greatest life saving device ever — here’s why

    Oh, please. What’s next… the iPhone 15 Pro Max can cure cancer and create world peace? I have the accident emergency call feature turned off because it STILL makes too many mistakes. Please, we don’t you hyping the iPhone. Let Apple introduce it and we’ll judge it on its merits.

    This iOS 17 feature transcribes voicemails as they're being recorded — here's how it works

    Voicemails are already transcribed in Messages on my iPhone 13 Pro and my wife’s iPhone 14. We never requested it so it’s likely a feature from our carrier.

    Review Asus Zenfone 10 review: The new best small phone

    Am I missing something here? I see no mention of the Zenfone 10’s ability as a, you know, phone. Is is LTE or 5G? And if it’s 5G, does it get by with the lower bands or does it include high-end millimeter coverage? I know the cool kids never use a phone as a phone anymore. But some might...

    Hurry! The best OLED TV I’ve ever bought just got a huge price drop on Amazon

    I’m glad you like your C2 - and, yes, the picture quality is stellar. I had one but gave it to my brother. LG is just too intrusive in terms of ads, tracking and buggy software. The set would also periodically turn itself off - even after disabling that option in settings. I blocked most...

    LG vs Sony vs Samsung: Who makes the best OLED TV?

    It’s not just LG’s customer service . The company has some of the most buggy and intrusive software in its TVs. Way too much data mining going on. Enough that I gave my C2 away and bought a Sony A90K. Less buggy and, as much as I hate Google, the OS allowed my to turn off most tracking...

    Review Sony Bravia XR A90K OLED TV review: The best 42-inch TV you can buy

    Well, I have put my money where my mouth is. I have replaced my LG C2 with a Sony A90K. Beautiful images on the C2 but there were just too many annoyances otherwise. Too many ads, streaming apps that would freeze, an annoying “magic“ remote and other issues. It’s true, the Sony’s screen is...

    I hate the idea of an iPhone 15 Pro price hike — but it feels inevitable

    I have an iPhone 13 Pro and my wife has a standard iPhone 14. We're pretty sure this is peak iPhone for us. Assuming we stick with Apple going forward, we'll likely opt for older or more downmarket models. If we eventually settle for SEs, so be it. Enough is enough. Apple's need to impress...

    Review Sony Bravia XR A90K OLED TV review: The best 42-inch TV you can buy

    Hi there. I just stumbled across your review for the Sony A90K. I'm seriously considering dumping my LG C2 for this Sony set. LG just makes it too difficult to escape the non-stop marketing and "helpful" suggestions, even with many options turned off. Also, the C2, despite its lovely screen...
