Our most recent podcast got a lot of listens because we used a cute picture of a dog. However, it was still recorded direct to my phone and the audio, if I used microphones like this, could’ve been better. Keeping yourself safe online. It’s something that you know …

“Sporadic” seems to be the word for these podcasts. If you’ve listened to some of them then you might be aware that they’re usually recorded in the car as it’s the only free time I have. However, these are not normal times. These are very strange times and …

You want 5G but you don’t want to be shelling out a load of cash. This, then, is where the Moto G 5G Plus comes in. It’s jut popped up here on the Motorola website. Running Android 10 you get either 4GB or 6GB of RAM and either …

Over the years I’ve honestly lost count of the phone launches we’ve been to. To give you some “behind the scenes” info, it’s usually a fairly similar setup. First, I jump on a train or plane and turn up at an event with a mixture of YouTubers, “Influencers”, …

The second episode of the OnePlus Nord / “New Beginnings” series is now online. They’re really big in India and this video concentrates on that success. If there’s one thing I can hear from these videos it’s the fact that OnePlus really listen to their customers. Focus groups, …

This is just £249.99 (at the time of writing) and, as usual with Honor, you get a lot for your money. My initial thoughts were consumed by the absolutely awesome rear-end. It reflects light and bounces it around beautifully on this Phantom Purple model – even with the …

I always flinch when I see “mobile phone footage” on news channels filmed in horrific portrait style. People tend to forget, then when they get home and want to watch their holiday videos on the TV it appears in a tower-thin strip in the middle of their wide-screen …

Despite the growth of DAB and the increasing choice of radio stations, the government here in the UK has reversed plans to close down analogue stations by extending licenses for another 10 years. It means that older car radio equipment will still receive signals until at least 2032. …

Leaks-a-go-go over the weekend, with the OnePlus Nord apparently due to get a dual selfie camera and a very tall and thing aspect ratio. Several tweets picked out this particular image from the OnePlus Nord Amazon India store… The OnePlus Nord looks to be hitting the “Why do …

With a number of challenges for high-street retailers right now, taking money from customers really shouldn’t be one of them. Let’s face it, with coronavirus concerns and high rent, you don’t want to be spending cash on extra staff to keep your stock in check and then accepting …

I’ve spoken previously about my annoyance with the selection of music available when you’re out and about. In the “old days” we’d perhaps get in the car and have a crummy selection of FM radio stations which all sounded very similar and very dull. Heart FM, Free Radio, …

Remember the Oppo A72? Well, Virgin Media are now selling it with prices starting at just £13 per month. For the data-hungry, you can get a whacking 100GB for just £18 per month. No upfront costs on theres and you can get the phone in either black or …

It’s fair to say that I’ve been rather critical of the Huawei and Honor phones of late. The PR teams aren’t happy with me, but sometimes I need to tell it like it is. If you’ve bought yourself an Honor 9X or an Honor 9A (or a Huawei …

Morning all. Yesterday I mentioned the reduced app selection on the Honor and Huawei phones. This is because Google Play isn’t available on newer models – like the Huawei P40 Pro, the Honor 9X and the Honor 9A. I got a number of responses. A lot of criticism …

Just recently I discussed the new Honor and Huawei phones, which are now being sold without Google Play. In a video I showed the amount of popular apps which just aren’t available. However, a few people contacted me to ask, “Yeah, but it’s not that bad, is it?” Sorry …

Like your wireless charging? Want a 10W charging pad? Well, right now there’s a deal on at Amazon, Argos and Carphone Warehouse, meaning that you can get one of these for just £19.99 – that’s a saving of £15 from the normal £34.99 price-tag. The offer runs from now until August …

So, OnePlus are up to something. We know that they, “Never Settle”, but of late they’ve been building some brilliant-but-expensive phones. The OnePlus 8 and the OnePlus 8 Pro are undeniably amazing but you do have to have some deep pockets if you want the Pro version and …
