Swipe typing has been around for so long that it feels like a staple feature on smartphones. Whether you're using an Android phone or an iPhone, chances are your keyboard app has a swipe-to-type or "slide" typing option. Is this a feature you use? Do you feel like it's faster than regular typing? Or do you prefer the classic tapping method for typing?

Smartwatches are far from a new thing. Wear OS (then known as "Android Wear") launched on devices in 2014, while the first Apple Watch was released in 2015. Still, smartwatches are not nearly as omnipresent as smartphones. Some people swear by them, loving the easy access to notifications and information on their wrist, while others find them unnecessary—or prefer simpler fitness trackers. Where do you fall on the issue? Is there a smartwatch on your wrist as you read this? Wich one?

You've been a loyal iPhone user for years. Maybe you even go all the way back to the OG iPhone. What if I told you there's a world out there beyond the Apple ecosystem? Android has come a long way, offering a variety of features and experiences that might just tempt you to switch. From customizable interfaces to a wider range of devices and prices, Android has something to offer everyone. So, what would it take to convince you to make the jump? Is there anything that could do it?

For a long time, smartphones were only really available in one color: black. Slowly, we saw white and silver enter the conversation. Thankfully, many phones are now available in a variety of colors to choose from. The newly announced Pixel 9 series comes in black, gray, off-white, green, and pink. The iPhone 15 series is available in black, blue, green, yellow, pink, white, silver, and navy. That's a lot of choices, but what color is your go-to? Or does it not even matter with the necessity of using a case?

In the world of wireless earbuds, there are essentially two types: Open-Ear and In-Ear. In the photo below, you can see an example of each kind. The earbuds on the left are the Soundpeats Air4 with an open design—they sit in your outer ear and let ambient noise in. Whereas the earbuds on the right, the Sennheiser Accentum, have silicone tips that go into the ear canal to create a seal. There are pros and cons to both types. Open-ear earbuds tend to be more comfortable for long periods, and in certain situations, it's better to be able to hear what's going on around you. In-ear earbuds often feature noise cancelation, and audio quality tends to be better since it's more isolated, too. So, which type do you prefer?

Technology is one area where differences between generations really stick out. One such example that's been highlighted recently is Millennials and their need to make big purchases or complete serious tasks on their "big screen" devices. They prefer to do things like making AirBnB reservations, buying plane tickets, and filing taxes on a laptop. Gen Z and younger seem to have no problem using their phones for these tasks, but many in the older generations are hesitant. Do you have "big screen" and "little screen" tasks, or does it not matter which device you're using?
