Some personal news:This is my last day at Android Authority, and it also marks the end of my time posting Android news!I've spent the past 10 years writing about Android, and I've enjoyed every moment of it. What began as a hobby in college — tinkering with custom ROMs and modding my phone — turned into a long career, one totally disconnected from my degree in Biomed Engineering.I am not a developer by trade or education, so I've had to learn a LOT to report on Android the way that I do.

I hope I've been successful in passing much of that knowledge on to you!Thank you to everyone who has followed my journey. I wouldn't have done this work for very long if nobody was there to read it. Your comments encouraged me to invest countless hours into

📱Sad news: ASUS won't be launching any new phones this year.The company will still continue updates and warranty services for existing devices, though.Still, this is sad because ASUS has been one of the most enthusiast-friendly brands over the years, and their phones offer really clean, stock Android-like experiences.But the competition is really tough, their phones are expensive, and the number of models they make is low.
