Tech Review: Iphone 12

 Ok so I want to review this phone before I eventually get a new one. This is my 2nd iPhone I've ever had. I know...shocking right? What I didn't remember is this is the first iPhone lineup to not include headphones or a charger in the box. I have the product Red version of this phone. Red is my favorite color so it was a match made in heaven lol.

I love the flat edges of the phone. Also I gotta talk about what was a big change....the no home button and reliance on Face ID. For the most part Face ID works great. Its fast and snappy. Of course during the pandemic Apple had to adjust it to read with a face mask on.The whole new gesture system didn't really take me too long to get used to. 

I feel the screen is really good on it...even in 2025. Of course it was slimmer than my iPhone 8 Plus's screen but hey who's complaining. Im trying to be fair here....yeah ive had this phone since April 2021....and the battery is really starting to be poor.....When it was new though it was great. 

Cameras are great too. I feel like I haven't taken as many photos as I did with my iPhone 8 Plus.....Ultimately I'm very happy with the Apple ecosystem in 2025. I still use iTunes....yeah yeah I have tried Apple Music. It was ok. But I like iTunes. I like owning the music. I have over 20,000 tracks on my iPhone and thats just what will fit up there!



Verdict 9.5/10

Tech Review: Iphone Air

 I have only had this phone for over a week but I feel the need to review it. I recently got a 512gb light gold iPhone Air. This phone is so thin. You really have to hold it for yourself to believe it. I knew when I used it at a local Best Buy I had to have it. The phone is also a modern marvel having most of the technology in the camera bump. Of course you're wondering about that camera and battery life.  Honestly the battery is decent. It gets me through the day at work with minimal charging ( I mean who goes somewhere with no charger anymore?). The camera is good too. I'm not a huge camera guy anyways. The phone's 6.5 inch Super Retina XDR OLED display is great. I really notice a difference from my old phone (iPhone 12). The phone doesn't really get that hot either which is great. One thing I'm not a huge fan of is the one speaker on the phone....but honestly it's not that bad. I usually use headphones anyways. Apple Intelligence is still in beta but I think ...

Album Review: Kanye West- Donda 2

This was another Kanye album I wasn't too hype to listen to cause of its bad reputation. I am glad he put it on traditional music services.The album was available on this weird music player thing in 2022 at first. Kanye raps alot about his ex wife Kim Kardashian here. I know he did on Donda 1, but he does it a lot more here. The song "Get Lost" feels empty and is so boring. "Security" has a weird beat...I mean it's too weird for its own good.  I really like "Keep the Flowers", its got a nice beat to it.I liked "Too Easy" as well. "City of God" is arguably the best song....Alicia Keys does a great job, as does Five Foreign. A different version of "530" is here as well. I enjoyed "Pablo" too which features Future and Travis Scott. Ultimately its an average album....but it wasn't that bad overall. However it did fall woefully short of the first Donda 2 which was great. Lyrics 18 Beats 21 Depth 18 Tilt 18 Ver...

Video Game Review: Jedi Fallen Order

 I meant to review this game way back in the day when I first beat it but this is coming after my 2nd play-through. This time I played the game on hard difficulty and man was it tough. Compared to Jedi Survivor I think the game has a better story. You join Jedi padawan Cal Kestis as he escapes a scrapyard planet Bracca , fleeing from the Empire. Cal comes face to face with an Inquistor called 2nd sister. You end up fighting her a total of 4 times in the game.  The main story is Cal must help a former Jedi named Cere and her pilot Greez to find a Jedi holocron that has a list of force sensitive children to rebuild the Jedi Order. I gotta say the planets you visit are all for the most part pretty flushed out . I found Zeffo to be the main planet and navigating it is truly awful. Well I’m glad they made navigation better in Jedi Survivor. Of all the planets Dathomir (Darth Mauls planet) was by far the worst. There was tough enemies around every corner there and hard boss fights w...
