Don't have cable so I saw episode 2 this week and I really liked the country songs that played.

Looked them up and I've been loving Townes Van Zandt.

I've only ever heard modern country so I'm kinda excited to explore the genre more.

From my understanding these songs are super different from his usual music. Someone told me I should listen to Alex G and I didnt enjoy most of his music but these two songs stood out a lot to me.

Are there any artists who make music similar to those songs?

Hello, I bought a Vivo x300 5g Global edition with a Mint Mobile plan in April and here is my review. I live in Illinois / United States. This phone does not get 5g here due to the missing band. However I've had zero connection issues using 4g data and there is not a noticeable difference coming from a phone that had 5g everywhere in my opinion.

To start I'll begin with the size, I have pretty small hands so it fits in my hand just right, no need to use two hands pretty much ever unless you want to type faster. I believe the Ultra and Pro are larger so if you prefer a bigger phone or have normal male hands you might prefer one of those.

​

Next the design, the back has a nice matte finish and the edges seem to be some sort of aluminum. Note that the case that comes with the phone does NOT cover the camera so if you drop it at the wrong angle it will break. The screen protector that comes from the factory scratches pretty easily but otherwise works fine. So I would definitely recommend a 3rd party case and maybe a new screen protector.

​

Moving on to the display I mentioned the size was perfect for me, videos on YouTube and social media look good. The refresh rate is adaptable 120hz which looks pretty good though I have noticed it can struggle to maintain 120hz on some social media platforms such as twitter/X.

​

On the topic of performance, as far as mobile games, Google chrome, and even having 20+ applications open I haven't noticed any performance issues. The phone may get hot at times however I haven't noticed it draining the batter any faster (yet) so it's okay.

​

The camera is pretty good, sometimes has issues scanning QR codes you may need to get closer and focus on them. But the scanning works as intended. I believe there is a 200x zoom which is insanely overkill but having the ability to zoom that far in even 100x looks really good. Videos are smooth and pictures are clear. I have heard complaints about the coloring however I havent had any issues.

​

The battery is about 6000 mAh I believe and it performs very well. Phone regularly lasts 15+ hours with normal use. These Vivo x300s come with something called Flash Charging, with the provided 90w Charger that comes with the phone it can go from zero to 100 in a little under an hour. Something else worth noting is that most phones from overseas do not support NFC or tap to pay from your phone. This one however does! It works well and I haven't had any issues.

​

Lastly I will go over the software. I found Orgin OS to be easy to navigate. The customization for themes is pretty solid too. No issues with Google maps or anything like that. All Google apps come pre-installed.

​

Overall I would give this phone a 9/10, the poor adaptive display on some socials hurts the grade a bit but aside from that the phone is S tier and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a modern flagship that isn't Samsung or Apple.
