A Phone For The Silver Generation

22/1/2018

So let me share the mobile phone I am using. After an extensive search for the ideal phone that suits my exact needs, I am happy to announce that I have just found the ideal product.
So before I reveal what it is, let me share my must-have features:
  1. It must have a large enough screen fro my failing eyesight. And I discovered it is not so much as large fonts but how bright I set the screen.
  2. It MUST have the ability to add an expandable memory card. My photo collection has gone beyond a 128GB microSD card, so the minimum for me then is a 256GB card.
  3. As I do a fair bit of travel, the ability to switch to a second SIM card is also a requirement.
  4. In an effort to travel light, I have dispensed of the laptop on short jaunts. SO if the smart phone can connect to the hotel room's LED screen via the HDMI connection it will be a bonus.  But more about that later.
So my ideal smart phone?  Well it is the Samsung Note 8! No surprise as many of the choices - Google Pixel XL and IPhone X do not make the cut.
