IT'S BEEN A WHILE!

It's been a year and a quarter since I last reviewed a phone, but this weekend
I've finally got back into the groove and put together my Pixel 8 Review video,
which went live this morning.



A lot has gone on in my life over the past two years, but I finally feel like
I'm in a place where I can start thiking about devices and videos again.
Hopefully it wont be 15 months until the next device review!

UK VIDEO SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES COMPARED

As a country, probably parttially due to the Covid effect and staying home more,
we're watching more and more TV, nearing 6 hours a day in fact! Almost 20% of
that is now online and streamed. There are several options for Video
Subscription on Demand services here in the UK, so I cover what the best options
are and what some of the shows are that you should be watching on each service.

IS MIDRANGE THE PLACE TO BE?

Mobile prices keep goin up and up, but our options in the midrange are getting
better and better. This summer the iPhone SE 2020, the OnePlus Nord, the Poco F2
Pro are all great options for under £500 and it makes me wonder, who really
needs a flagship phone these days?

ANDROID FANBOIS CHECKS OUT IOS

As a hardcore Android fan, I've never used an iPhone as a daily device, which
I'e often thought was an issue, for someone evaluating technology and
specifically mobile phones. I never thought I'd see Apple launch a device in the
under £500 price range though, so when they did, I thought it was a great
opportunity for me to try iOS out!

After using it for a week, I have a bit of a surprise... if I'm very honest,
which I try to always be, I started kind of enjoying iOS!

WHAT I'M EATING TO LOSE WEIGHT

Obviously, this is a tech site, as is my YouTube Channel. This year though, I've
started to take getting healthy and losing weight very seriously. If you follow
my YouTube channel you'll have seen big differences in me since March this year
as I've lost over 6 stone in weight.

This is done using a pretty simply theory of move more, eat less, but of course
it's not as simple as that. Eating less should also include eating the right
things. I now check the calories on pretty much everything I eat and have found
a few companies that help me control my calorific intake which makes the weight
loss much easier to control. Here are the main companies I use. If you're going
to try them (and I honestly recommend you do) then please use my affiliate links
👍

YOUTUBE MICROPHONE BATTLE ROYALE

Over the past couple of weeks I've been upgrading various parts of my kit,
enabling me to make better quality YouTube videos (hopefully!). I got a new
Panasonic Lumix GH5 for better video. I invested in Adobe Creative Cloud for
better video editing software in Premiere Pro and After Effects. Then I
wondered, can I do any better with my mic?

For the last year or two I've used my Rode NT1 for my videos and the sounds is
pretty damn great from it, but it does somewhat get in the way. I'm also
tethered to my desk with it needing to be plugged in to my PC. Maybe a shotgun
mic was needed?

LOW COST APPLE AIRPLAY

I know it might seem odd an Android site with an article about Apple AirPlay,
but I do have a MacBook and sometimes I get sent gadgets to play with that
perhaps don't warrant a full video but are still kinda handy. This MagicEther
Wireless dongle is one such device.

MIUI 10 - HAVE XIAOMI NEARLY CRACKED IT?

I've used many Xiaomi devices over the years and the software has always been a
dealbreaker. Almost always they have good hardware, especially for the price you
pay, but the software has always been rather clunky and more than I could bare
for a daily device. But as I recently used the Redmi k20 Pro with MIUI 10 I
started to think 'maybe this aint so bad!'

HUEL - THE FUTURE OF FOOD?

You might be aware, Im trying to lose wieight. A big part of that is my diet and
controlling the amount of calories I eat. This of course means cutting out lots
of things, I don't eat much bread these days, not much sugary products and in
fact my evening meal was often a fruit & veg smoothie I would make myself.

I was very interested though, when I read about a lot of people using Huel as
meal replacements. Some people would go so far as having pretty much nothing but
Huel! I was interested in perhaps replacing my smoothie with Huel, so placed an
order of two packs, Vanilla and Mixed Berry.

THE ACTION CAM TO DETHRONE GOPRO?

I'm not a huge action camera user, but having said that, I have a motorbike and
sometimes do track days, I cycle and occasionally do things like karting or
paintball, when an action cam is handy to have. Up to this point the default
choice if you want quality footage was a GoPro of some form. A month back I was
considering upgrading my GoPro HERO 4 Black as I tended not to use it due to the
batteries being worn and not lasting more than about 15 minutes and it generally
just being old and out of date. So, the obvious choice was the GoPro HERO 7
Black, right?
