Typing this on a £60 Xiaomi Redmi A3 device that I purchased from Argos. It’s not going to replace my current phone (iPhone 11) but I was interested to see how a cheap Android device performs and what it provides for the money. Long story short, it’s actually a usable device, which is a pleasant surprise. £60 to play around with Android, before deciding to drop iOS and purchase a premium device is an acceptable cost to me. Also, £60!

I've had my iPhone 11 for 4 years and for the most part, it has just worked. However, recently it has decided that it does not like to stay connected via Bluetooth to my car, unless the screen is turned on. I'm thinking it might be time to get a new phone and I'm toying with the idea that I might go back to using an Android device. I'm looking at Google Pixel devices, but I'm not fully committed to the idea just yet.
So, Apple have decided they will not kill PWA support on iOS devices after all. This is good news. I'll still be switching to a Google Pixel device.
I've been thinking about switching to an Android phone for a while. Thing is, I've not pulled the trigger on this as I've been pretty happy with my iPhone -- it generally just works. Apple's recent shenanigans around PWA support has cemented my decision that my next phone will be a Google Pixel device.
