As I’ve been switching between different iPhone models it’s become clear to me that right now I need the iPhone (or any smartphone) to be a tool and to pick the one that’s comfortable for my RSI, forgetting any other shortcomings. It’s also clear that certain tasks are better suited to the MacBook Air, soContinue reading “Intentional computing”

A site for writing quick reviews
Matt Birchler has created a cool site enabling you to write quick reviews in a beautiful format, here’s the link on his idea and how to use it. I’ve got a few ideas on how I can integrate this into my reviews, it’s a neat tool.
Deleting my Amazon account
I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about where I want to put my money when purchasing online and the main place that bothered me was Amazon, so I have now deleted my account. There are many personal reasons for this, some of those listed here. I’m glad I’ve finally done this to be honestContinue reading “Deleting my Amazon account”
Are smartphone ergonomics more important than specs?
Since switching to the iPhone 13 Mini from the 11 I have noticed an improvement in my RSI and when I have used my 11 it’s come back pretty quickly. This got me thinking about my journey with the iPhone 11 Pro to the 11 where it was about comfort i.e. the bigger screen overContinue reading “Are smartphone ergonomics more important than specs?”
The iPhone 13 Mini has changed the way I use a smartphone (for the better)
When I picked up the iPhone 13 Mini it was primarily to help me with some RSI issues I’m having. I went in with open eyes and accepted any limitations around battery and screen that I may have compared with the iPhone 11 it was replacing. What’s actually happened is that it’s changed the wayContinue reading “The iPhone 13 Mini has changed the way I use a smartphone (for the better)”
Grab a discounted MagSafe battery pack for your iPhone 12 or 13
In my looking at MagSafe battery packs now that I have an iPhone that supports it I came across the Anker portable charger and it’s currently on sale here. It’s less than half price of the official Apple one so might be worth a shot.
Apple MagSafe battery pack deal
Came across this deal whilst looking for a battery pack, seems a better deal at £80 rather than the usual £99. (please note that this is an affiliate link that helps support the site).
Should you trust #giftfromgoogle reviews?
You may have noticed the #giftfromgoogle hashtag everywhere at the moment but you need to be a little sceptical about it. As part of the Pixel 6 rollout Google gives out their latest devices to YouTubers and they are encouraged to share their thoughts via this hashtag. Don’t trust these reviews, it’s a gift soContinue reading “Should you trust #giftfromgoogle reviews?”
The Google Pixel 6 isn’t £349 cheaper
Giving away a pair of £349 Bose headphones with Pixel 6 and Pro purchases is a great deal but only if you’re in the market already for a pair of Bose headphones. I’ve been looking at over the ear headphones and no way I’m spending over £500 on Apple’s overpriced ones. This was a reasonContinue reading “The Google Pixel 6 isn’t £349 cheaper”
I gave up trying to buy a Pixel 6 (a less than ideal launch from Google)
Last night I was really excited to give the new Google Pixel 6 Pro a go and put in an order. I’ve got a really old android phone and wanted to update to the latest Pixel but Google absolutely fell on it’s backside on this launch. You’d think a cloud company like Google could stayContinue reading “I gave up trying to buy a Pixel 6 (a less than ideal launch from Google)”
