Something I am envious of Apple for
Jun. 20th, 2024 08:51 amLast week my 9-month old phone (a Nokia XR21) developed a defect, with the screen physically coming loose.
If I had an Apple phone then I'd have wandered down to the nearest Apple Store, had them take a quick look at it, and it would have undoubtedly been replaced on the spot, with all of my data transferred.
Instead, my phone has been packaged up, was dropped off at a local DHL pickup location yesterday , and is awaiting import clearance to Bucharest (in Romania) to be looked at. If I'm lucky I'll have it back in the middle of next week.
Luckily I had my previous phone still, and so I've got a backup to write this on. (And check my bank, chat to Jane, take photos, plan trips, and the dozens of other things I use my phone for daily).
