Flexibility to manage my time more effectively.

After a couple of years of using Remmina as a remote desktop client for work, it has helped me to be quite effective at work and to be able to keep using Linux Mint on my main laptop even after we returned to work on site.

To be honest, since it has been so reliable that I can't see myself no using my laptop for work and personal use since it allows me far more flexibility in both areas than having to use separate computers for both uses. Being able to seamlessly accessing all the data from me personal, and professional, lives from my laptop make managing both a lot easier.

While doing so can present some cybersecurity issues, those issues can be managed a lot easier with modern software and some time management skills so not be overwhelmed.

What I enjoy the most about what the mobility my laptop gives me, by allowing me to connect to the work server remotely, is that I can have more options from where and when I can complete certain tasks. As time goes on, it becomes more apparent that being able to have access to every aspect of my life from a single laptop, and a smartphone, makes managing it a lot easier.

When technology can be manage to better fill your need, it can empower you to become better at what you do, while allowing you to have a healthier personal-work life balance.

Nothing Phone 1 has become my favorite Android smartphone so far.

I've been using the Nothing Phone 1 for about 4 months now, and it has been the best Android smartphone I've used so far. To be honest, since the upgrade to Nothing OS 1.5.3, based on Android 13, I've seen a marked improvement in my user experience.

The only changes I made to how the Nothing Phone 1 comes out of the box, is that I prefer to use the Discreet Launcher and Jugo icon pack. Other than that, I don't make any more changes.

One of the things I like the most about the Nothing Phone 1, is that it doesn't come with much bloatware. Other than the custom launcher it comes with, and a couple of apps like a weather and Bluetooth paring apps, it is as close to vanilla Android as it comes.

So far, all my coworkers that have seen it have liked the design of the Nothing Phone 1 so far. Some like it because it reminds them of an iPhone without being a copy of it. I can see how, and I don't mind it since I like the iPhone industrial design while I prefer using Android over iOS.

I use my Nothing Phone 1 on Movistar network in Mexico, and so far it has worked like a charm. Since about January, Movistar has started to roll it's 5G network in Guadalajara, and where 5G is available I've been able to use it with no issues at all.

I do recommend the Nothing Phone 1, just make sure its compatible with your mobile provider network before buying it.
