Blog2019 ≫ New phone arriving today

Exciting times, slightly nervous as to whether it will be better than my old phone or not. My most recent phone it will definitely be better than, that has given up the ghost. The previous phone, the one I'm using now, it ought to be much better than. This one has proved to be quite usable again though, I got Slack on it, the camera is fine, and even the battery life is ok. It lasted all day yesterday anyway. I'm desperately missing syncing my Fitbit tracking with Strava, I've tried everything. I do have the Strava app on my Fitbit proper now, but it still did not sync last night's extra 5k run that I did. That 10k on Sunday was completely wasted effort... Also small things like oof it is slow, and hey why is the fingerprint recognition not working? New phone has fingerprint AND face recognition, current phone has neither.

If it stops working, if I find I can no longer install apps because of Huawei having a falling out with Google I will have to quietly buy a new phone...

Ooh new smart lightbulbs from IKEA for my Symfonisk speaker lamps should be arriving today too!

5k: Five kilometres, just over three miles in old money.

10k: Ten kilometres, just over six miles to you. Sometimes talking about 10,000 steps though, an arbitrary daily step-count target.
