My name is Jordan Floyd and this is a channel that focuses on unique, unsual, and forgotten tech.
I'm working to create a library of content that reminds us of the exciting tech of the past and present while also taking the time to share some personal tech stories. Consider subscribing and following my journey!
I still own it and have it as a backup, a weakness for me is the charging port which has all but died, fortunately the wireless charging still works, AND I do own the expensive but cool original wireless charger Razer came out with.
I recommend getting the gcam port for the camera. It has the same hardware as one of the pixels (forget which one). The issue wasn't the hardware, it was the software.
Also pointing out the original wireless charger, it had better placement for the coil, and the coil had to be lower to accommodate the LED light in the back.
I am actually using an essential ph-1 now. My iphone crapped out on me I out it on the charger and boom it was working. Made me appreciate how amazing this phone was.
I got mine peeled off, they were damaged too much, .. now I know where the microphone is and where the speakers are exactly located 😂😂 ...... yep I need a new phone .. this smartphone can't hold it any longer
Does the Alfred app have to be running or can it be incognito in the background. Like could you continue to use the phone like normal using normal apps without actually noticing that the camera is functioning?
I own the RP1 and RP2 and they both suck big D. Worst phones in the history of phones. Both phones barely got any support, no replacement parts available, I can bet 90% if not more of the owners of these phones have and/or had problems with unresponsive screen, broken usb c charging port, terrible battery life not only on usage but it goes bad pretty quick and I didn't even use the chroma logo on my RP2. Both of my phones have bad battery, unresponsive screen, etc, etc, etc. After buying these 2 phones I lost all trust on Razer. I own a lot of Razer products and half of them have just gone bad after a few months of use. Going logitech once I change all my current setup. Even the Razer iskur chair sucks balls! Don't buy Razer products guys!
I have owned many many fire tablets. I keep going back to the Fire 7. The HD 8 is nice but I found it too heavy. It hurt my wrist. I just purchased this exact tablet. The review is spot on but I side load the google play. I primarily bought it to read eBooks.
I have them a year since this video was released and the connection issues are very minimal. With this being said, if anyone is interested in these, I say go ahead and buy them.
I had the white PH-1 and even though I don't use the phone anymore I still use the charging cable and 3.5mm adapter becuase to this day I've never had an Android come with more beautiful and high quality accessories! To this day the white braided cable hasnt yellowed, the aluminum housing is still shiny and scuff free, cable doesn't tangle. Not even my Nothing Phone or third party offerings have been this premium. I know it's dorky to geek out over a cable but I've had it since 2017 and it's just been my workhorse! It's so beautiful i display it with pride on my desk as the cable connected to my white Razer Pro Type Keyboard! Perfect combo!
I was using this app, but now it's useless unless you pay. The videos are no longer stored on the cloud. Before, if they stole the phone, you could still get the videos from the cloud. Now, if you don't pay, the videos are stored on the phone, so if the burglar takes the phone, you have no videos to help police catch them.
Looked at the download info on google play recently based on this app being recommended in a different article. The app seems very invasive to your privacy. "This app may collect these data types: Personal info, Financial info and 5 others"
I just got one today and I can't seem to find dark mode in the Android settings. I also am noticing a little swelling I think the batteries at one time heated up. Is there something that happens?
Thank you, Mr. Floyd. I was on the fence about getting a Pixel 7, but now I'll take the leap. Please know that you are so very professional, and it was a very well-produced, good review! I will pray for you, as you asked. Resurrection blessings!
It is a larger, updated iPod Touch. Load it with content, grab some headphones, and have enough music, videos, and books to last the rest of your life!
been using this phone since the end of 202o and it's my daily driver even watching your video on it right now 😅 the cameras just mess with my trypophobia, but luckily I don't have to see them
People have managed to install another OS (I forgot the name) to get it on android 13 and bring new life to the phone.. I haven't done it myself but it's real. The flashing file is free on the site.. can't recall name tho
I had that. Now I wish I had not given it away. I gave it to a kid as their first phone. I’m sad. I have given way too many tech away to people for free when I upgrade only to realize, bad idea.
So like can only Pokémon related games be played on this (Nintendo Switch Lite Dialga & Palkia Edition) or can any other games be played on it as well?
If you have an extra charging brick you can place the phone between the plug prongs, that what i do for all my phone since i have a bunch of charging bricks.
It used to record to the cloud for free. That's why I liked it, because if someone broke in while I was at work, and they took the phone, I could still use my other phone to pull up the videos and show police. A few weeks ago they changed it. If you use the free account, it saves the videos to the device you are using, such as an old smart phone. You have to pay for a subscription to get them saved to the cloud now. So now if they break in and take the phone, I can't get the videos.
