Like I said. 2000 is a small number, but I wouldn't be dismissive of the results. It's a sentiment I've shared with them because I hate throwing out a good phone because it's three years old. I especially considered getting the new iPhone SE for my mother because she is not tech savvy like you said. It's smart to want to appeal to many, not just the technically able. Besides, it would be another thing I just don't have to worry about.

SellCell surveyed 2000 (I know that's a small sample, so take this with a grain of salt) US based Android users and about a 3rd of them say they're considering switching to iphone 12.

My favorite part is that those people recommending NEVER using a heat sink are still wrong, and if I understood the reading correctly, the opp

I recently got a new M.2 NVMe SSD and went looking for a heat sink for it because it gets a lot hotter than my old SATA M.2. After installing the heat sink I read on some forums (this one included) that, while the controller likes to be cool, the NAND chips shouldn't be cooled because they wear out faster when cool. This didn't make sense to me as you can get SSDs from the manufacturers with heat sinks on them, an external SSD enclosure I bought came with a thermal pad to dissipate heat to the case and the WD SSD Dashboard has a little temperature status indicator on the GUI that only shows gr
