About

Mobile technology videos for the discerning gadget enthusiast, brought to you by Michael Fisher. My name is Michael Fisher. I’m a writer, sailor, podcaster and recovering actor whose childhood obsession with science fiction never quite faded. A quarter-century later, the technology that I coveted as a kid – from folding-screen phones to wearable tech – is woven into the fabric of everyday life. I’ve spent the past 15 years making videos that strive to uncover the truth of these products through detailed reviews. Welcome to MrMobile!

No, I don’t mean the car phone from the 80s – I’m talking about the product of the same collaborations that gave us the BMW Motorola Timeport of the 1990s; the Pininfarina Nextel i833 of the mid-oughts; and the Porsche Design BlackBerry and Huawei phones from the 20-teens! Truth be told, I found those earlier efforts mostly forgettable – because the phones they focused on were already standouts in design and capability, from brands well-established in their respective spaces. But Honor is another story entirely: a company that’s been trying to make a splash since 2016, but which has been held back by circumstances both within and beyond its control. So as Honor begins offering its groundbreaking super-slim Honor Magic V2 foldable to European buyers, teaming up with German design legend Porsche Design makes all the sense on the continent. (It’s just a shame all its design wins are only skin-deep.) [SUBSCRIBE TO MRMOBILE] https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSOp...
