We've always had an interest in this topic, and stay up to date with news, articles and studies.



This article is a very balanced and refreshing view on healthy and productive social media use.

It's a quick, easy and informative read, so we thought we'd share it: Full article

Quotes from article:

" Habits form naturally through repeated use. Use any site or app enough, and you’ll form associations in memory between cues, such as site alerts and your smartphone, and responses, such as logging on. "

" Social media platforms have figured out how to make pallid online rewards as real to humans as food pellets are to rats. Likes and followers gain fuel when they become public. Users then engage in social comparisons, feeling good when they gain social recognition and bad when others’ accomplishments diminish their own. Social pressure is part of the experience. "

" Students in a recent study were able to decrease social media use by simply putting their phone charger farther away or making their phone less accessible by putting it in their purse rather than pants pocket. "

Now in stock: Samsung Galaxy A21s, Unlocked, New in-box

Available in Black, white and red



We are sweating it out in work today 😅

So... Does leaving your phone out in the sun damage it?

Probably not.

> Modern smartphones shutdown to protect themselves if they get really hot.

> The battery may drain a bit quicker if the phone is hot, but it won't cause permanent damage.

> Manufacturers ICs and microchips are temperature-tested before being shipped to Apple.

All that being said; probably best not to leave it in direct sunlight all day, just in case.

Remember: sun cream and hydration😎

iPhone 12 Mini Screen Replacement - Our First Screen on a 12!👀

by George Lovell | | 0 comments

Screens are always difficult to source for the latest iPhone model.

Original refurb screens are extremely scarce, because there's so few screens being replaced and recirculated amongst independent repair shops.

Aftermarket screens take a long time to reach the market, and are always poor quality to begin with.



Here we have an original pull in pristine condition that we were able to get hold of. This is a screen that has been removed from an iPhone 12 Mini - think of the demo units you see in shops like Currys PC World.

These original pull screens are like gold dust. We currently have one in stock for iPhone 12/12 Pro, and one for 12 Pro Max!🤫
