Jay's cell phone wasn't happy in Cusco, Peru at the end of November. His cell phone battery puffed up as soon as we arrived. I assume it happened because of the city's elevation of 11,152 feet. We had a bit of altitude sickness as well. The phone looked pretty scary and I wondered if it'd leak. Once we got back down to sea level, the phone's girth became less obvious. It never stopped working and he used the OnePlus 6 until last weekend. That is when I ordered and received a new phone for myself.
My old Google Pixel 5 was adequate but I knew it'd make a great phone for Jay. So, I sort of created an excuse to get a Google Pixel 7 Pro. Generally, my cell phones last three to five years. It seemed a little premature to get a new device after just two years! However, it was for a worthy cause, I reckoned.
Switching wasn't too much of a hassle. All data and apps ported just fine. I was up and running in a few hours. I really believe Hazel is a good upgrade. That's the colour of the phone, but it will also be my name for it.
