I went for a moto G7 in the end. It's pretty spectacular for the price & effectively has stock android without any annoying bloatware that other manufacturers seem to think we all need.
That looks deceivingly good for it's low price. My wife needs a new phone so I'm definitely adding this to the shortlist as she's not keen on spending hundreds of pounds on them.
For it's better to forget...

It's excellent to be honest. I am a fan of Motorola phones because they just aren't cluttered up with proprietary apps that you can't get rid of. Migrating all the data & apps over is a doddle too.

New 4K blu ray player. Needed one with dual HDMI outputs as my telly doesn't support DTS codecs* (like those audio tracks on most blu rays) & my AV amp doesn't have the certification for HDR pass through (but does support DTS codecs). Spent most of yesterday faffing about & swearing a lot as whatever i tried i still couldn't get the DTS Master Audio via the audio output. Today I solved it. Pulled the ARC cable out of the telly as it seems to be hogging the audio feed & piping it back to the amp, regardless of the fact I have a separate HDMI cable running from the player to the amp. Sans ARC (which I don't need for blu rays anyway) it works perfectly Go me!
*samsung's way of selling more of those stupid soundbar things that do support DTS codecs.
I needed a new portable speaker for work. Must be able to be quickly packed up in my mobile office (i.e., suitcase) and set up without shelf space. The JBL Clip 3 is working out really well and has decent "oomph" in terms of sound quality for the price point.

I have never heard so much depth & detail in a pair of headphones. Especially a pair this small. The bass is absolutely frightening. I also did some experimenting with the silicon tips to get the best result. There's a great guide to which tips are best here

It's based on chromium but it's way quicker & has built in adblocking/ privacy settings. But you can toggle it as you need. Easy to import all your bookmarks from other browsers too & the password manager is really simple.

One thing I have noticed with this Brave browser is that since I've started using it, I haven't had any of those super annoying grammarly or etoro ads on youtube that auto play before a video

Waiting for this bad boy from Sweetwater. Of course I would pick the one they are out of. I hope that means it's good. Any thoughts?
Gives you the opportunity to transfer vinyl to your hard disc. This is a good thing At least you won't have to turn the disc over mid way through and spoil the flow.
I don't know manufacturers but it was original Competition pro joystick in perfect condition and a not so great condition quickshot ii turbo. But I'm not into nostalgia in these, they were nearly waste for me. I still have plenty of ad&d games that are quite valuable in my closet.
One good thing about music, when it hits you feel no pain So hit me with music, hit me with music
