About Igor Bonifacic

After double majoring in unemployment (English and Art History), Igor's career prospects were, to say the least, limited. It was either become a teacher or a writer. Thankfully, he chose the latter. Following a brief stint as a music journalist, he wisely followed the advice of one of his editors and began reporting on Toronto's startup community in 2012.
That opportunity eventually lead him to MobileSyrup, one of Canada's leading technology publications. In 2019, he joined Engadget and spent the next four years working with the site's news team. He now leads Pocket-lint's Lifestyle section.

What was your first phone?

iPhone 3G.

When did your interest in technology begin?

As long as I can remember.

What tech products or categories are you most passionate about?

Cameras, smartphones, tablets, video games, and audio gear.
