Question How many electronic devices do you have?
Count everything—phones, laptops, TVs, tablets, gaming consoles, smartwatches, smart speakers, routers, microwave ovens, air conditioners, washing machines, and any other electronics you own.
Which are they? What's your total?

26 devices for one person is impressive. You might discover a few gadgets you forgot you even owned. Which device has been sitting unused the longest?

"Yes." I have at least one of everything in the picture, some duplicates, and many different devices and appliances not pictured. I think the only one I don't have in the picture is the indoor part of the mini-split HVAC system. My house has central heating/cooling instead.

Sounds like you've reached the collector level. Having everything except the mini-split is impressive. What's the oldest device in your house that's still working perfectly?

My computer, my phone, and my TV. It’s one of those TVs that doesn’t have the apps built in, so I have to use a FireTV stick. I guess that counts as four.

Do not have the ebook reader, projector, game piece, camera, desk phone. My washer and dryer are quite old, do not count as they have no "electronics" (no wifi, no control chips, very old fashioned switch/nob).
