The internet never forgets… your private information.

Yes. My Zenfone 8 is “small” but I want it even more compact. My old Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact is the perfect size!

I hane lost the use of so many Android app I paid for because they were delistd from the Play store. Not happy.

I now resort to creating a backup apk for my most usd ones. I also create a backup befors updating. Never know if an update will break something or even worse, remove a feature.

Am using a Zenfone 8 with a jack. As for future upgrade, still unsure. My top priority would be the size - has to be the same or preferably smaller than the Zenfone, so that limits my potential options.

I was travelling recently and was fortunate to be able to watch a F1 race. The track had a FM broadcast of the commentary in English, and my Zenfone 8 with the built in FM tuner made itself very useful indeed, since the FM tuner only works with wired earphones.

Yes, they may or may not launch the normal version. Then again, it’s only April. One can still hope. 👍

Manufacturers killed that word so no one can make fun of it. 🤣🤦‍♂️

Hopefully they’ll continue selling “compact” phones. Heck, I’m guessing there will be people who will be happy if Asus releases a compact phone every alternate year.

Right now, an Asus Zenfone 8. Been using it for a year and a half. Before that, a Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact which I used for almost 5 years. 😅

Another phablet sized phone. It’ll be a pass for me.

I still have the CD. Getting it to run might be the tricky part. :p

I enjoyed Uplink as well.

Civilization 4, Dungeon Keeper, Black & White just to name a few. See you next year. :p

I wish Sony will bring back the XZ1C but with updated internals. Everything else can remain, even the 720p screen.

The fact that there exists a solution to protect against accidental edge touch means that having the digitiser/screen all the way to the edge of the device is a flaw in the design. 🤣

I find for me it is half about the usability of thw phone one handed and the other half being pocketability. I don’t want to have to carry a man-purse just to be able to have my phone with me at all times. Front pocket of jeans is where i keep my phone and the pockets are not deep enough to contain the phone without pressing into my hips when i sit. Keeping the phone in the back pocket is just inviting theft.

I just want another Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact with updated specifications.

I switched from a Pebble Time to a Gaemin Vivoactive 4s. I think it’s as close to an eink smart watch as it gets.

Anime Cast works for me. Sometimes I have to try different servers but I cn deal with that.

Yes but I’m sad they are moving away from MIP and switching to AMOLED. That said, I recently discovered Coros smartwatches and they are still using “memory LCD”. Only time will tell if they’ll stick to it or transition to AMOLED as many others have.

I upgraded from a Pebble Time to a Garmin Vivoactive 4. Quite a bit more expensive but I’m really liking it.

I’m just sad that Garmin is slowly replacing their Memory-in-pixel display in favor of AMOLED screens. MIP displays seemed to me to be the next best thing to e-ink type displays - always on with minimal battery drain.

I’ll just need to keep my watch for as long as I can.

Yes, adapters are tiny but they stock out sooooo much. At least with corded earphones some of them come with 90 degree plugs which is so much better and lesser chance of something breaking.
