When it comes to PCs, audio-visual equipment, and mobile devices I can honestly say I've never been at the top of the tech tree. Always a few years behind but just up to-date enough to not appear too unfashionable.
When it comes to mobile phones I can honestly say I'm happy enough to rely on family and have never been tempted to pay out for the latest tech. I have now had my trusty Samsung Galaxy A10 for over 3 years and what a marvelous hand-me-down it has been. So comfortable to hold in my hand, has excellent battery life, and has a sharp clear screen with great colour. No intrusive custom user interface and very easy to set up.
The camera has to be my favourite feature, I'm no professional photographer so the ease of taking great quick shots is excellent, the built-in editing software is a breeze and each and every picture taken always looks great on my TV.
The phone itself does have a few light scratches on the casing now, so perhaps another hand-me-down will come my way soon.
Hopefully not from my brother this time, as I'm not a fan of things with pictures of fruit on them.

Hello, I've got a Xioami 11T Pro , this phone is spectacular in all ways, camera, screen size and storage of 256 GB is good enough for all your photos, documents, even some Netflix serials 😁. A good features for phones would be to use them as controller to open your car and to start your engine , I really see useful on cold times.

I'd love to see phones like Nokia 3210 'revived' and evolved.
I really miss its indestructibility and ultra-long-lasting battery life! (hopefully newer displays and battery technology will be able to compensate where smartphones drain the power)- jefftra_1739459SMARTY Pioneer17-01-2023
Totally bomb proof, before smartphones, think everyone virtually owned one.

Phone camera. Instantly take photos on the go and am able to share them with family and friends at the touch of a button.

being in hospital and bed bounded i have recently purchased a steam deck wich is like a small pc i love it and it helps me communicate with my family that lives abroad but it would be great if it had a camera on the future versions .

My favourite bit of tech is definitely my smart phone camera. The amount of pictures I can take wherever I am, and edit them, share them, etc, instantly on the go. I'm becoming quite the photographer.

I like my phone as face recognition is very convenient, photograph quality is good, and easy to use.

I enjoy having an iPhone it has a lot of good features but I do miss some of the in-depth customisation android had and some extra features so I still use my old phone as a work phone it would be good to combine both positives into one phone
