I like my phone that let's me do so many and different things, I am able to talk people far away from me but also take pics of things in front of me.
I wish old consoles would have a remake like PSP or game boy.
I would like smartphones to be less immersive and give to people the life that they took away back. Now everyone is looking at the screen and people forgot how to socialize and be around others
- What classic device would you like to see updated (if technology issues were no problem)?
So my candidate is an update to the Google Pixel 4 phone on google's current smartphone lineup.
To me, secure facial recognition as pioneered by Google and Apple, and then now ONLY used by Apple makes for a really superior smartphone experience.
Google dropped the technology in their phones but there is absolutely no reason why they could not re-instate it.
In fact the Pixel 6 had an apalling under screen fingerprint reader and the Pixel 7 is not exactly stellar forcing Google to add insecure face unlock to their phones. What a travesty.
So yes, bring back secure face unlock to Android phones, that is my sincere wish for the future.

I'd love to see BlackBerrys updated because I find typing on a physical keyboard to be much more efficient and their reputation for security is a huge plus. Plus, having a new and updated BlackBerry in the market would provide more options for consumers who want a balance of productivity, security and communication features. And let's not forget, there's a lot of us who still prefer the feeling of a physical keyboard and updating the BlackBerry would allow us to keep using our beloved devices with the latest features and software.
I currently own an iPhone 8 Plus. Made by apple. What I love about technology is how it can make you feel so connected with people, no matter how far they are in the world. Even with people u don’t know there is a sense of community, a sense of connection. Technology is advancing and there are so many opportunities for everyone and benefits of it. I also love how the elder members of our community are now signing up to classes to learn about technology and how to use ir. It makes my heart happy. ❤️
I absolutely love my Surface Pro X! One of the things that I appreciate the most is its portability. It's incredibly thin and lightweight, making it easy to take with me on the go. The build quality is also top-notch, and I feel confident that it can withstand the wear and tear of daily use.
Another feature that I appreciate is the performance. The Surface Pro X is powered by a Qualcomm processor, which provides plenty of speed and power for all of my needs. The battery life is also excellent, allowing me to work for several hours without needing to plug in.
Best piece of tech I have? Probably my smart watch, after some recent health issues (pacemaker) I can monitor my heart rate and oxygen saturation levels at anytime I feel the need to , plus it will alert me if 'things' don't appear normal.
I love my phone, it's been a lifesaver over the last couple of years and is always on hand if I need to grab a quick photo, check the latest news, find a restaurant or keep in touch with the world. I'd be truly lost without it.
One bit of tech I'd love to see updated would be the Sinclair C5, a little electric vehicle would be amazing, although electric scooters are good, I just loved the concept of the C5, it was way ahead of its time.
I can foresee that in the not too distant future you'll probably have more conversations with your phone than with actual people, a natural language interface would be a great feature that would raise what you can do with your device just by talking with it, instead of having to give your phone commands like we currently have with Siri etc.
My favourite bit of tech is my nikon p900 camera it's an amazing bit of kit that can zoom 30x I can get clear pictures of the moon and all its craters from my doorstep
