Now you need a couple of really good headphones, with wires. You just bought the best sounding phone on the market. Don't forget to enable "Hi-Fi Quad DAC", it really makes a difference.

I've got a pair? of QCs (wired) and ready to try out when I can find enough time. I did plug it up to the Bose bookshelf system this morning after seeing this post (the Hi-Fi Quad DAC was enabled by default) and it sounded really good even at low volume but hard to tell if it was much better than what I had before...maybe the headphones will reveal the audio superiority of the new phone! Looking forward to it!

It's an ESS Sabre DAC. (You find big brother in Mark Levinson)
Personally I find the sound quality from the Bose headsets that I've tested to be a bit underwhelming. (Noise cancellation is great though)
Bowers & Wilkins P7 have really great sound, but are not very comfortable.
I bought a couple of Sennheiser Momentum Wireless instead, that I use with the wires. They're not best at anything, but they are a great compromise.
Interestingly enough, they sound better with noise cancellation than without.
And ironically they add a bit of white noise that you can hear when you are in a quiet room.

Yeah, when I finally lost my fairly new Blackberry the AT&T store talked me into having an Android instead. "What? ...and give up all those nice Blackberry features I hardly ever or never used?
Android - I never looked back, dammit!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Considering none of my Android devices ever got security updates and thus are still vulnerable to exploits that have been documented for years, I would never do any banking from an Android device.

Had to leave, too. The only thing left that would still work on the 950XL was Outlook.
So I got a Samsung A50. Good enough.

Intentionally. I realized the "programming quiz" ran a slight risk of causing offense to a coworker.

I am offended that you didn't leave it up until I'd seen it.

If your coworker serious about working in IT, he'll need a thick skin.

What's your skill level in programming?
A. Senior
B. Medior
C. Junior
D. I'm an ing dumbass who can't write software for sh*t like Mike two desks to my right
E. Seriously though, Mike's code looks like it was dragged by the ugly train through ugly street
F. Mike, if you read this, you're an a**hole and I hope you step on a Lego

I have a tuft of your hair.
Remember that.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

I will deliberately not mention the name of the Ascii Text Editor
which I am currently using; as it might be the very best for some
other person in some other circumstance. Facts be; I am now after
a replacement.
The things I want are: Simplicity, search, and I want it to do an
automatic_file_save if I do the Android "Clear All" operation.
I do not need (and indeed, I do not want) Bold/Italic/Strike_Thru
or such things; I'm going to do the text with the phone, and then
move it as an ascii text file to an app on my desktop, blah blah.
Oh, and it must allow me to use the Android Speech-To-Text thing;
in fact, if it has a one-touch button to go straight to listening
to me speak; so much the better.
Google Play Store was not really my smartest choice of advice and
counsel for my first choice (hmmmm, and now I'm asking here ???).
Anyway; simplicity, safety, auto_save, and a lack of advertising;
I'm looking. Suggestions are welcome and invited.
Thanks for helpful comments.
p.s., A link to a useful web page will help a lot.
