Where tech gets a more inclusive edit.

Basil here, a tech journalist of 15+ years. This is where I'm combining my experience in tech with my inclusive values and, hopefully, a lot of fun.

That means tech reviews, camera comparisons, first looks and more, but expect a space where pride is celebrated, where conversations you may not expect to have on other tech channels are had, and where silly is encouraged.

It's visibility, not rocket science, so I'll stop explaining, but if you want to start a conversation, whether you agree or don't, drop me a comment :)

Sony Xperia 1 VII Review Update: After swapping my pre-release version for a final retail-grade device, I'm redoing my battery testing, and the early version of the phone was MUCH worse. 20m gaming took it down by 11%, whereas the new version goes down by 7%, same brightness, volume, game, and performance settings.

This made me wonder, what do you guys prefer – super early reviews straight after a device drops, or more thoroughly tested long-term reviews/retests if a device is faulty?

To the commenter who suggested my early review device might have had some battery bugs, you were right, I was wrong. Turns out the Sound Connect app was going rogue, ravaging the battery life.

I’ve spoken to Sony and they’re swapping the phone out next week, so I’m holding off on posting the full review, hence the delay, thanks for your patience!

That said, I grabbed photos and videos at the Kylie gig with so many phones: Apple, Samsung, Vivo, Xiaomi, Sony, Pixel, so I’ll spend the weekend stitching together a mega camera comparison to make up for it.

In the meantime, I’ve got the following reviews in the works, which one do you want first?

Xperia 1 VII camera comparison – what two other phones should I take to a concert next week?

Shark Ninja has invited me to see Kylie in London and learn about this brilliant, space-saving air fryer: ninjakitchen.co.uk/product/ninja-crispi-4-in-1-por…

I know – it isn't a phone – but I also cover cooking tech as a journalist, and live in a small flat, so an air fryer that fits in a cupboard and saves on the washing up is a dream.

Check back next week for the full comparison video, and if you want me to take a different phone – iPhone 16 Pro Max, Google Pixel 9 Pro or Nubia Z70s Ultra – let me know with a comment.
