A Few Battery Comparisons and Speed Tests
As I sat down to write this article, I thought about all the battery comparisons and speed tests that I could share with my readers. You know, as someone who's always on the go, I need a phone that can keep up with me. So, I decided to do some research and compare some of the latest smartphones on the market. First up, let's talk about the battery life of these phones.
I recently got a new battery for my Note 4, which cost me just £12. I was amazed at how well it performed, and I'm as happy with it now as I was when I first bought it. This got me thinking, what other smartphones have impressive battery life? Well, after some research, I found that the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra has a massive 5000mAh battery, while the Google Pixel 6 Pro has a slightly smaller 4614mAh battery.
When it comes to speed tests, things get even more interesting. The new flagship phones from Samsung and Apple are always pushing the limits of what's possible with processors. But how do they stack up against each other? I decided to put them through some rigorous testing to find out.
One of the most noticeable differences between these phones is their aperture. You see, a wider aperture like f1.7 can make all the difference when it comes to taking great photos. It allows more light into the camera, which results in brighter and more detailed images. But how does this affect everyday life? I put both phones through some camera tests to find out.
As for myself, I'm guilty of getting swept up in the marketing buzz surrounding new phone releases. I've been known to pre-order new phones on day one, only to be left wondering if they're really worth the money a few weeks later. So, how do you guys handle it? Do you get excited about new phone releases and jump on them as soon as possible, or do you wait a couple of months to see if prices drop?
I've found that waiting three to four months after a Samsung phone is released can get you an amazing deal on the latest flagship. In fact, I recently read a report that suggests buying a Samsung phone within two to three months of its release can save you up to 25% off the original price.
If you're someone who's always on the lookout for deals and discounts, this might be the strategy for you. But if you're like me and prefer to buy new phones outright, then you might want to consider a different approach. I've recently realized that buying a phone on contract can sometimes save you money in the long run.
For example, let's say you have a £40 monthly contract with your phone provider. Over the course of two years, this would work out to around £960. But if you wait three months after a new phone is released and then buy it from the store, you might be able to snag it for significantly less – potentially even £700 or more.
Of course, there's one major caveat: buying from third-party stores can sometimes mean missing out on deals. But if you're set on getting your hands on the latest smartphone, it's definitely worth exploring.
Negotiating with phone shops is also an art form in itself. If you're considering buying a new phone, don't be afraid to ask if there are any deals or discounts available. You might be surprised at what the sales staff can offer you. And if you weigh on the heavier side, you might even get a better deal.
So, there you have it – my take on batteries, speed tests, and camera comparisons for smartphones. Whether you're a seasoned tech enthusiast or just starting out, I hope this article has provided some useful insights into what to look for when choosing your next smartphone.
A Collaboration with PC Centric
I recently had the pleasure of collaborating with Marcus from PC Centric, a channel dedicated to all things computers and technology. We chatted about everything from free sync to G-Sync monitors, and I was impressed by the depth of knowledge that Marcus brings to the table.
Marcus is definitely the go-to guy for anything PCS-related, and his channel is a must-visit for anyone interested in staying up-to-date with the latest tech trends. From smartphones to laptops, he's got it all covered.
As we chatted about our shared interests, I realized that PC Centric is not just a blog – it's a community. The guys there are passionate about technology and always eager to share their expertise with others.
I'm excited to say that I'll be visiting the PC Centric channel again soon to chat more about monitors and other tech-related topics. In the meantime, I highly recommend checking out Marcus's work and subscribing to his channel. Trust me – you won't regret it!
My Favorite Phones
As for my favorite phone, well, that's a bit of a tricky question. As someone who's always on the go, I need a phone that can keep up with me. But if I'm being completely honest, there's one phone that stands out from the rest: the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra.
I know what you're thinking – "Isn't the new iPhone 13 Pro also a great option?" And yes, it is! But for some reason, the S22 Ultra just feels like home to me. Maybe it's the massive 5000mAh battery or the stunning Dynamic AMOLED display. Whatever the reason, I'm hooked on this phone and wouldn't trade it for anything.
Of course, this is just my opinion – what about you? What's your go-to smartphone, and why do you love it so much?
