Robert Triggs

Robert Triggs is Head of Testing and Data Science at Android Authority, leading on technical features, benchmarking, and smartphone camera analysis. He also brings readers the latest and greatest technology commentaries, reviews, buyer guides, explainers, and more. In the wild, you’ll find him mixing with analysts at Arm Tech Day and Snapdragon Tech Summit or stomping the show floors at IFA and MWC in search of exciting things to play with.

With over a decade in the business, Robert has gone from flinging ROMs at his Sony Xperia X10 to carving out a reputation for some of the industry’s most in-depth technical coverage. From deep dives on mobile chipsets and 5G networking, to Bluetooth audio codecs and photography innovations, he can talk for days about big-picture trends and the minutiae of nearly everything inside modern gadgets.

Before working for Authority Media, Robert studied BSc (Hons) Sound Engineering and still tries to find the time to tinker. Whether it’s perfecting the circuits that make his PRS Singlecut Trem scream the blues, keeping his Sony WH-1000XM3 alive with fresh batteries, or finally finishing one of his many DIY gadget adventures.
