    It's no more than a bit of US dick swinging most likely. I'd put the likelihood of nothing changing at 99.99%.

    At least they're still doing them. I'd a free one due from work and still took the Huawei. It'll all be a load of nothing.

    That's reassuring given I bought a cheap one a couple of weeks ago. Some P Smart version which isn't too bad for the cost. I text and use WhatsApp so I doubt not using the Playstore will effect me much even if it happened. Or am I well wrong? I don't even know what's happening except something about privacy and bears giving Google the sly eyes.

    Yeah it's a disaster, basically they can't put full Android on, all the apps in the store, maps, Google home etc.

    Paging @Giggles.

    I can get the S10+ with 30gb data for £40/month, or pre-order the S10 5G for £46/month for 30gb data (both are only £50 for the handset upfront).

    Do I:

    Go for the s10+ right now

    Go for the S10 5G

    Wait for the S10 5G to be released, then get the S10+

    I doubt my provincial town will even have 5G coverage for ages, but it's probably gonna be a noticeably better phone just for the other specs, shirley?

    What have you now? If it's decent at all I'd wait.

    Or wait for a Note 10 which won't be too long after the 5G.

    The battery on this P30 Pro is unreal, never had anything remotely close. Been off the charger 20½ hours with screen usage of 7hr35 and there's still 44% sitting on it.

    You change phone every six months? Aren't modern phones like a thousand dollars?

    It's like a lad buying an 8k telly when he can see the one he has already, or someone buying a bicycle with a carbon frame when the wheels still turn on his old one. Basically I want to and, at the moment anyway, I can.

    I get some from work and some for testing also, but I count them as in-between bonuses.

    Fair enough. Six months seems like a really short period, but whatever. I definitely spend far more money on shit that I use far, far less.

    Yeah, couple of people in my old work had Huawei phones and they said the battery life was great - would last two days.

    Ive heard a few things about that handset and that website looks decent to compare.

    *I don't care how good the cameras are because I don't take pictures
    *4k video output
    *Headphone jack
    *Fuck Apple and Samsung

    I'm still on a release-day iPhone 6 so that must be quite old at this point. Maybe I should stop moaning about the battery,

    I have realised and confirmed, being only on 3G on my pixel massively extends the battery life. Plus, avast or AVG sucks all my battery life so I've uninstalled it.

    Never installing a third party anti virus is always a good start. Avast isn't too spammy but there's really no need for them, especially on a Pixel.

    After another few days it’s not without it’s annoyances (copying and pasting is a nightmare), but mainly because I never realised all the Google stuff works so seamlessly on iOS plus they’ve fixed most of the things in iOS13 I hated when I tried it previously (proper LastPass integration and a half decent file system for starters).

    I always said that apple stuff is for people that aren’t really into phones, and the less interested I’m finding myself in phones the more that’s ringing true.

    At $700 they’re going to sell an absolute shitload of iPhone 11’s. Rebranding the XR into the main product line at that price is a good move.
