34 - More Midrange Madness

October 10, 2020 19:00 - 9 minutes - 13.3 MB

A few more bits of hardware came my way in the last few weeks, the Poco X3 NFC and Pixel 4a further add to my argument that the midrange is the place to be at the moment, which Google rather backed with their announcement of the Pixel 5 during their questionable LaunchNightIn event last week.

33 - Pixel vs OnePlus and Pixel Buds vs Jabra

August 22, 2020 15:00 - 10 minutes - 14 MB

Aplogies for the less than brilliant audio, but this episode was recorded as a YouTube video too. I discuss my decision around my daily, the Pixel 4 over the OnePlus 8 Pro, even after the recent Android 11 beta bringing Always On Display to the OnePlus 8 Pro and then why I'm moving back to the Pixel Buds 2020 rather than the Jabra Elite Active 75t earbuds. Then we move on to movie chat as I've been watching quite a few in the last week or so!

32 - More Podcasts To Listen To

July 27, 2020 09:00 - 21 minutes - 19.9 MB

I start off talking about some earbuds you might use to listen to podcasts, the new 2020 Google Pixel Buds and the Jabra Elite Active 75T's. Then I move onto some other podcasts I listen to and would recommend, covering a variety of topics and subjects, from Community, through tech to cycling and nutrition.

I test two Xiaomi devices, both in the £400 region, both really very good! The Mi Note 10 and the Poco F2 Pro, the follow on from perhaps the most hyped phone ever, the Pocophone F1. Then, of course, I've been watching lots of TV like Travelers, Ozark and much more!

30 - Andy goes to iOS?!

May 08, 2020 16:00 - 18 minutes - 16.5 MB

Finally some hardware again! I've possibly changed my daily device as I take the OnePlus 8 Pro for a test ride. Then, believe it or not, I run an iOS device as my daily for a week as I try the iPhone SE 2020, and it really isn't too bad!
