#SGGQA 191: Mrs. GadgetGuy and her New Pixel 4a 5G

Talking Tech with SomeGadgetGuy (#SGGQA) ·

2021/02/07

We tech reviewers talk a LOT about "average consumers". My wife Marie is a tech savvy individual, but she isn't "into" tech like I am. Her LG G7 was getting a bit long in the tooth, and we really struggled to find her a new phone. Balancing features against some compromises, we eventually arrived on a Pixel 4a 5G. She's been using the phone for a couple months now, and is ready to share some thoughts! Also, we were drinking bourbon, so that's fun too. Ad free version of the show on Patreon! Support
