    WHY is this feature not available on the Pixel 8?! (Pixel Feature Drop - December 2023)

    In this episode of TechFocus, I cover three things: - What was announced in Pixel December Feature Drop; - My thoughts on the release and what it potentially means for users of non-pro Pixel phones going forward, and; - The problem with the exclusivity of features between the regular and Pro Pixel phones, as well as between the U.S. and the rest of the world.

    In this episode of the podcast, I discuss whether the new DJI Mini 4 Pro is actually a worthy upgrade over last year's DJI Mini 3 Pro or not, which one you should buy if you don't already have one of these drones, and whether you should upgrade if you already own the Mini 3 Pro!

    iPhone 15: Is It Finally Time to Switch from Android?!

    In this episode of TechFocus, I try and answer the question of whether it is finally time to switch to iPhone if you've been a long-term Android user who has been considering switching for a while. We first cover what is new with the iPhone 15/Plus/Pro/Pro Max this year, before trying to decide whether the upgrades are enough to attract Android users!
