Very interesting. This longevity aspect frequently comes up in the Wii U modding community. It is tempting to plug in a simple USB stick to store the game files, but, because of the intense read/write nature, it is deemed to be prone to failure. Recently use of high-endurance SD cards has grown, but some say it is still not as safe as an external HDD. It would be interesting to hear thoughts from someone more experienced about the safest storage option as the last thing you want is for your save files to get corrupted.

X100V is super-hard-to-find-right-now, I have an older version X100T and I am very pleased. It is basically the camera that pros using the huge DSLRs everyday reach for when they go on their own holidays or leisure trips. And it's value has nearly doubled in the two years I had it, unheard of in the field of consumer electronics.

It is nice to have a dedicated device that sits next to the amp and know that it can provide a Hi-Res audio signal that is as good as it gets.

I have a Sony NW-A45, but there's a few models in the NW-A line-up that are attention worthy.

I'm quite pleased with my Sony NW-A45. I miss the ability to rate songs, but I understand it is much better than the Android based alternatives.

Haha, I learned to solder a few weeks ago just to get my Emerald cartridge to run properly. I couldn't stop taking pictures of how beautiful Links Awakening DX was. I'd say DS also has a few games worthy of your attention.

Very cool!

More colour choices would be great. Sometimes I use my second screen just for face illumination during video calls. I found that ft.com salmon-pink is one of the better choices.

The real issue is the unaffordability of data plans in the US.

More prevalent use of dual sim phones would also help - I get all the data from my work sim, but most of my calls are made on the personal one.

Just three days ago I've set up my 93 year old grandfather on a Lenovo Smart Display 7. I think it has multiple benefits over an iSomething: - Always plugged in - no need to remember to charge - Shows our family picture albums that I can remotely update via my Google Photos - It is loud. Left the volume at 3/4 - Sits on a table and you're never holding it wrong™ - No settings to mess up, two previous tablets were too complicated

This is the way!

I recently got into film photography and the 36 pictures I get from the lab after a weekend or two make me so much more happier than 6 frames per second that my Fuji does.

Usually they list other supported ROMs on XDA Forum, but a quick check there indicates to me that there are no AOSP ROMs for A50. It is likely due to it using Exynos chip which requires use of proprietary drivers.

OnePlus devices have been always recommended on their Reddit, but personally I've been using a Xiaomi Mi 8 for nearly 2 years with no issues.
