Jordan Asante

Jordan Asante writes about smartphones, audio, and wearables for BitsFromBytes from Manchester, where he has been reviewing consumer electronics for a decade. He started as an in-store product specialist at a major UK electronics retailer, moved into independent reviewing in 2018, and has personally reviewed more than two hundred smartphones across every price tier for various outlets including his own YouTube channel. Jordan shoots his own product photography for reviews and maintains a small collection of smartphone cameras going back to 2015 that he uses for longitudinal image quality comparisons. His reviews prioritize longevity and real-world durability because he thinks the "first week" review genre that dominates the phone press is deeply misleading. He has a particular interest in how flagship features trickle down to mid-range devices and in how long software updates actually reach users after the marketing cycle ends. When not testing gadgets Jordan coaches a youth football team in Moss Side and cooks Ghanaian food his grandmother taught him when he was a kid.
