Phone Challenges by Aaron

Perhaps he's been using an OS for too long.  Or that cell phone is getting a bit too boring.  Or maybe he wants to see if he can keep a phone for 30 days.  Whatever the case may be, Aaron loves to switch up phones from time to time as part of a 30 day challenge.  Better yet, it allows you to get a more in-depth look at a particular device (or mobile OS) outside of a review or dogfight.  Keep it locked here for videos, articles, and more as part of our "Phone Challenges by Aaron" series!
