Mobile Editor

Joe Maring has been the Section Editor of Digital Trends’ Mobile team since June 2022. He leads a team of 13 writers and editors with the single goal of publishing the best mobile tech content on the Internet. While much of his time is spent planning and editing the work of his section’s amazing contributors, Joe equally loves writing himself — whether he’s digging into wonky AI apps on phones or explaining why you should buy the latest iPhone.

Joe started talking and writing about phones in 2012 with his tech-focused YouTube channel and website, MobileCupOfJoe. He’s contributed to PhoneArena, XDA Developers, and 9to5Google. He held the titles of News Editor and Senior Editor at Android Central between 2017 and 2021. Before joining Digital Trends, Joe was a Senior Writer and Editor for Screen Rant’s tech section.

Throughout his years in this industry, Joe has attended major trade shows such as CES, MWC, and IFA. He’s also appeared on major tech podcasts, including Tech News Weekly, Clockwise, and the Android Police Podcast.

Joe lives in Michigan with his two cats (Minnie and Polo), a very sweet and dumb pit bull/boxer mix (Damon), and Kenn — his partner of 10 years. When he’s not working, you’ll likely find Joe walking a nature trail, reading at his favorite coffee shop, or watching the Lions.
