Merry Christmas! 2021 was the year of the "I": Is the "We" coming now?
Have we all gone mad? Sometimes it seems as if the world is coming apart at the seams. Hatred, resentment and violence are on the rise all over the world. Part of this is likely due to things like social media or chat groups, where many people are becoming more radicalized among like-minded people. Are we humans overwhelmed with the future and its technologies?

Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays to all of you. Like last year, I'm offering you a new Christmas tale, a totally fictional article inspired by one or more pop culture stories with a touch of parody and especially tech.

How Android's emergency call shortcut ruined my morning!
Yes, it could have also saved my life. But not today: What started as a beautiful morning turned into my personal Pearl Harbor disaster within a few keystrokes! Because my Pixel 6 automatically sent an emergency call to the authorities after a key combination that I still haven't figured out. What's left is amazement and annoyance at Google turning such a vital matter into yet another digital mishap.

Opinion: Beta culture - Why do we increasingly buy unfinished products?
Each new feature or software update is eagerly awaited and installed as soon as possible, as things get even better when they are upgraded, right? But what if the novelty was promised months before, even during the announcement of the device? Well, this is an increasingly common trend that is not only seen in the realm of smartphones but gadgets in general.

Opinion | Buy your best Christmas gifts now!
If forecasts of economists prove to be true, the next few months will look rather bleak! This is because the global economy is caught up in supply chain bottlenecks, something that not even a container ship that remains stuck in the Suez Canal could top. If you dislike seeing nothing underneath the Christmas tree in December, you might want to hurry up and buy those presents now.

The iPhone is not as expensive as you think
Yes, a new iPhone 13 is obscenely expensive, whether it is a mini, vanilla model, a Pro, or the Pro Max. But there are factors that one should take into consideration before complaining about the price, as this fresh perspective will hopefully point you to the fact that at the end of it all, the iPhone 13 Pro doesn't cost more than a mid-range Android smartphone. "Wait a minute", you say, "Have they lost it at NextPit?" Check our math out and find out. iPhone 13: All iPhones in 2021 compared

The history of the Samsung Galaxy Note series: Time to say good bye?
Usually, the period between August - September is that time of the year when us tech reviewers rave about the just-released Samsung Galaxy Note handsets. Since 2011, when the first Galaxy Note was released, this had almost become a habit. This year, however, was different. For reasons best known to Samsung, the company decided against launching a 2021 edition of the Samsung Galaxy Note and wanted us to drool over their foldable line up instead.

The anatomy of spyware: Why Pegasus affects all of us
The recent Pegasus spyware debacle showed how governments went about in tapping the smartphones of journalists, activists, and politicians. WhatsApp CEO Will Cathcart warned that the danger posed by this spyware is limited to a small group of people who were adversely affected, and NextPit has taken the task to ask security experts on why the Pegasus incident affects us all eventually. WhatsApp boss on Pegasus: "This affects us all". Do you agree?

3 reasons why 5 years of software updates may not work on Android
After the announcement of iPhones that will be compatible with iOS 15 and the news of the iPhone 6S receiving yet another year of software updates, we decided to hunt down Android smartphones that were released around the same time window and realized something: long-term software support concerning Google's mobile operating system is simply an unrealistic expectation. iOS 15 update tracker: Which iPhones are compatible with the new operating system?
