This helps him gain perspective on the mobile industry at large and gives him multiple points of reference in his coverage. Since then, he has mostly been faithful to the Google phone lineup, though these days, he is also carrying an iPhone in addition to his Pixel 6. After running into connectivity problems with the HTC One S, he quickly switched to a Nexus 4, which he considers his true first Android phone.

His first steps into the Android world were plagued by issues. He isn't shy to dig into technical backgrounds and the nitty-gritty developer details, either.

This background gives him a unique perspective on the ever-evolving world of technology and its implications on society.

Before joining Android Police, Manuel studied Media and Culture studies in Düsseldorf, finishing his university "career" with a master's degree. He focuses on Android, Chrome, and other software Google products - the core of Android Police’s coverage.

Manuel Vonau joined Android Police as a freelancer in 2019 and has worked his way up to become the publication's Google Editor.
