I will return to iPhone when:
1. Google is done with the Pixel brand.
2. Samsung keeps forcing a dual Samsung/Google ecosystem unwanted fusion.
3. If Xiaomi is still not adequate for 5G bands in USA/Puerto Rico.
In that particular order.
Former owner of iPhone 4s, 5s & 8.
And going to the iPhone, would be my first time considering a Pro edition, but to ensure that I would not need to upgrade in 3 years minimum.
This year I am going for Google Pixel 8 from Pixel 6.
My only "changing phones like an underwear" period or upgrading per year was the complete privilege of BlackBerry since BlackBerry Pearl, Curve and Torch series and finally Google Nexus from 4 to 6.
Is a good time to remind you that the adoption of USB-C by Apple was not by full willingness, but that they were forced to by the Europe Zone?
Otherwise, Lightning for another year and forever and ever.

Good morning gamers!
I got some #Starfield content in pipeline, but I decided against making Let's Play/Walkthrough because unfortunately, people are just uninterested (anticlimactic for gaming as genre IMO).
So I am back on square one on what concept I can make of them.
GG!

As #tech fan, is mind-insulting that lawsuits hangs on people's convenient "inability" to learn simple things like changing defaults apps, BUT EAGER TO learn the newest crap of social networks in the 2020s.
The Google Antitrust lawsuit focus is WRONG.
I SAID WHAT I SAID!
A while ago, #Nintendo submitted a big set of patents locally at Japan that if granted, makes many mechanics of the new Zelda as proprietary.
Now it was revealed that Nintendo submitted a new one where details a joystick that contains a ‘magnetorheological fluid’ (MRF), which changes viscosity depending on the intensity of a magnetic field.
The move is BIG as one of the negative aspect on the life of the Nintendo Switch was the issue known as "drifting" where a joycon sticks could not maintain its absolute zero position provoking troubles for moments that you need 100% of CONTROL of characters/camera movements.
But Nintendo lack of "rush" on solving this situation only limiting to special discounts and a short-lived repair program (legally obligated to add the insult), made the issue almost impossible to solve unless gamers resorted on 3rd parties.
I believe this is Nintendo saying "HELL NO BE ON THIS CRAP AGAIN" on the next Nintendo hardware, heavily suggested to be announced on Spring 2024 and launching at the second half of 2024.
