Finding things you can test on iPhones and Android devices is kinda tricky. App launch times, while relevant to overall sense of speed, does not really test performance, and many of the apps that I could use to test an iPhone’s performance don’t run on Android. Given this,
Apple released iOS 13.2 to the world today and it includes a great new bit of tech that will make your low light photos look even better (as long as you have an iPhone 11 or 11 Pro). It's called "Deep Fusion" and while you
Google talks a big game about how they enhance zoomed photos in a feature they call Super Res Zoom, which I have tested in the past and found to be less effective than the additional hardware found in the iPhone XS. The Pixel 4 will be in my hands soon
https://youtu.be/hSBMi02DigM I installed the pre-release version of the Google Camera app with astral photography functionality on a Pixel 3a and tried it out compared to the iPhone 11 Pro. I don't have a Pixel 4 yet to see how it does, but I hope to
This is the Estwing 16 oz. Cureved-Claw Rip Hammer: Doesn’t look that crazy right? Surely this is just a random hammer I found at Home Depot, right? Nope, according to The Wirecutter, this is the best hammer money can buy. There are plenty of other hammers you can buy
iOS 13.2 beta 2 came out today for developers and Apple finally added the ability to change the video settings for resolution and frame rate from within the Camera app itself. This is great! We’ve been asking for this for years and it’s wonderful that it’s

It goes without saying you can choose whatever you’d like, and this is all subjective, but the combination of the gold iPhone 11 Pro and the green Apple leather case is the hottest look I’ve ever seen in a smartphone. The green and gold look not only makes
From John Gruber's iPhone 11 review: There’s also a shortcut that not many people know about, but when you show it to them, their minds are blown: with 3D Touch iPhones, you can 3D Touch and hold anywhere on the keyboard (that is to say, keep your
GSMArena is an invaluable tool in looking up smartphone specs all in one place. This is especially useful for phones where the company just doesn't give out this info (cough, Apple), so I used them to find the battery capacities of every iPhone since Apple started releasing 2
All of the Pixel 3 and 3a phones have a feature called Super Res Zoom. This is one of Google’s many A.I. features they brag about and I wanted to see how well it did in the real world. To test this, I took the same photo 4
I'm a big fan of Night Sight mode on the Pixel line of phones. Qualms about it being a separate mode or making scenes look different from how they look to the naked eye are fine, but as an additive mode to all the normal photo modes on
I was talking with a family member this weekend and the topic of phone upgrades came up. This person was using an iPhone 7 and was looking to upgrade to a new phone. They quickly ruled out anything that wasn’t an iPhone, which simplified the conversation, but the conversation
I’ve said on many occasions that I think the Google Pixel 2/3/3a have amazing cameras and they get shots that I really enjoy most of the time. Not only that, they get photos, usually at night, that I simply can’t get with my iPhone. But here’
