Phone change time for Spocky and myself.
I had to stop using my fave phone, a Huawei Mate 20X, last February because the government said thta if any phone couldn’t access every emergency number frequency then you’d have to get a new phone that does.
I can understand the reasoning but I really liked that phone. Had it for seven years and had no plans to upgrade to anything. Just a new battery as the seven year-old one was getting a bit tired. I used to get 2 – 3 days out of it when it was newer.

So I had to get a new phone and I’m keen on privacy so I decided to get a used Pixel 9 Pro Xl from greengadgets.net.au flashed with Graphene OS.

It was okay but I still very much preferred my old phone as it had a bigger (7.3”) screen and much longer battery life.

A couple of years ago I bought Spocky a new phone, a Pixel 7A and that’s been a good thing as well but it’s starting to play up so I asked if she’d be happy with my phone and she said yes, so I got a used (from Green Gadgets again) Pixel 10 Pro Fold.
That THAT’S a big screen when it’s unfolded. I try not to use the big screen unless I need to and when the phone it open it’s a bloody good thing.
I was trying to read something with small text earlier today (not sure what but I’ll use the TATE front pages as an example) and it was a bit difficult to read so I opened the phone up. Much better!

And here’s open -

I’m beginning to quite like this phone.
