Jerry is Mobile Nation's resident nerd and proud of it. There's nothing he can't take apart, but many things he can't reassemble. You'll find him across the Mobile Nations network and you can hit him up on Twitter if you want to say hey.
Samsung could have slapped a Galaxy Note badge on the S20 Ultra and nobody would have complained. The only real difference is S Pen support.
You don't have to spend a lot of money to get a ton of storage once you hit the new 15GB cap in Google Photos. It's one of those rare things that is worth more than the asking price.
Next June, unlimited space in Google Photos goes away — unless you're using a Pixel. This is the best reason to buy a reason to buy the Pixel 5.
Apple looks to have done a great job transitioning the Mac to ARM and I'm really interested in what's new. But a great mid-range Chromebook saves you a ton of dough and you'll get just as much use from it.
"Budget" doesn't mean cheap or bottom-end. But no matter where you draw the line on the price it seems like the U.S. is getting less and paying more. That's because it's true.
If you need your phone to know just where it's at, you'll need to use GPS. Here's how it all works.
Cricket Wireless has some great features including family plan savings but misses the mark with a rather limiting 8Mbps LTE speed cap on most plans. Straight Talk keeps speeds higher and has great phone compatibility with a ton of data but falls behind in mulit-line savings.
Android isn't perfect as-is, but maybe it's time to stop fiddling with the same things each release and work on more features. Or do both if possible!
Don't jump in blind! Before you make the switch, you need to think about a few things.
Precision electronics and outside of the box thinking brings us what might be the best game controller ever. This makes me want to buy a PS5 of my own!
Samsung is in a better position than any other smartphone maker when it comes to the supply chain. Releasing four products on time while working on the fifth for an early release next year drives that point home.
It looks like Samsung cut everything out of the Note it can when it built the smaller, more affordable "regular" Note 20. Where does it go from here to build a Fan Edition?
A complete PC inside a keyboard is not exactly a new idea. But it's just as great an idea today as it was 30 years ago.
What has two monitors, a real mouse and keyboard, and keeps you working and playing right from your living room? A Chromebox!
LG makes phones that look great and are beautifully designed. It's also not afraid to try something new. If only it could improve the software on them it could give Samsung some competition.
Google is really bad at keeping secrets and one this big is no exception. Sorry, but you're going to be waiting until next October for any new "flagship" Pixel phone.
Fastboot is part of the stock Android bootloader and it's powerful enough to fix things or break things. You'll probably never need it, but it's there if you do!
You can't see the things that make a Pixel phone great the same way you can in something like the Note 20 Ultra. I'm hoping Google stops trying to compete on the hardware front forever.
The science behind wireless charging says not to put anything magnetic close to either side. Apple did the work to make it safe, but chances are other phone makers haven't. Yet.
