Love my kindle e-reader. It's an old one but its still going strong
Having tech on the go allows me to bring my private life and work life to my finger tips. From being able to control my EV car charging, preheat, locking and unlocking when required. Having a 24 hour link to Teams keeping me up to date with colleagues.
There was a Galaxy Note 9 in my care for 3,5 years and I absolutely adored it. It had a stylus which I used to create some doodles and sketches or simply to use the button to take pictures of night shots, when stand was not with me.
But most importantly, this brilliant phone most likely saved (indirectly) my life, as it had a heart rate monitor I once decided to use just after I woke up in the morning. It actually showed me that my heart has a condition which my GP described as a "lazy heart" which unchecked can lead to several, even lethal outcomes.
Only reason I did change it, was the battery-not holding the charge for full day even with a branded extended battery phone case.
Since then I'm having a smart bracelet and always on a lookout until my referral goes trough.
I can see technology saving lives at work on a daily basis (NHS), which is the best bit of living at the time of such advancement.
The future feature I would like to see is a phone that might allow apps to be installed from alternative play stores to break the current stranglehold on the market held by Google and Apple. Allowing users to install their own apps if they wish (allowing for no support for doing so) with a hardware reset and data restore option as an acceptable fix for staying in warranty.
I love more the speed of the browse and the more joyful experience of surfing the net on my devices.
My kindle is my favourite tech. I have Alzheimer's and reading keeps my brain active. I must say my android phone pixel helps because I play a couple of games which again helps .
Just having my standard smartphone is amazing, banking, calendars, emails, shopping and all the social bits and bobs. Just makes life so much easier, and life isn't always easy ^_^
I would dearly love a new one though, mine is starting to show its age 🤕 😅I loved my minidisk back in the day when actually owning things used to be cool. I wished they would be an app for my phone that looked like I was using one.
I am going to go with the iPad as it seems to be the most versatile
difficult to say I like all my tech! but if I have to choose just one then my kindle e-reader. Light and easy to use, fits in a handbag for reading on the bus, train, drs, bed just about anywhere and with the adjustable back light I can read in the dark and not disturb my other half. Now on my 3rd one think I must wear them out with so much use!
