So I've still got my old non-flagship smartphone that I complained about before. I'm so annoyed that now and then the touchscreen would in_some_parts not work and the only fix is to restart* the phone. It's happening more often now. 😣
I do have the budget for a new gadget but... ugh! How better will my next #smartphone be? 🤷♀️ I'm delaying the spending. Money saved is like money earned. I think dumb/feature #phones are great. But there are lots of #apps that I want handy... in my pocket. 😐 #tech

The man on the far left is wearing a dark blue shirt and has a warm smile. Next to him, the second man is dressed in a black sweater and glasses, with a neutral expression. The third man is wearing a red polo shirt with a small emblem on the left side and has a pair of glasses hanging from his shirt collar, smiling slightly. The fourth man, on the far right, is in a red striped polo shirt and is smiling broadly. The background artwork consists of numerous white lines crisscrossing against a muted brown backdrop, creating a dynamic visual effect.
