Just cause the iPhone 12 launch has been pushed back until October doesn't mean Apple is gonna sit around and let other tech companies bask in the glory of Techtember all alone. As we expected, Apple's "Time Flies" September 15th event focused primarily on Apple Watch and iPad while also showcasing some exciting surprises relating to subscription services. In this episode, we discuss the new Apple Watch Series 6 and Apple Watch SE (and how these devices pair beautifully with Apple’s new Apple Fitness+ subscription service), the new iPad 8 & iPad Air, how Apple One can potentially save you a lot of money, and when iOS 14 will be available for download. (*hint* It's Sept 16th!)

Folding smartphones are the future of phones. They represent the next era of mobile devices and are built with bleeding-edge technology. In this episode, we discuss the different approaches to folding smartphones, including Samsung’s Galaxy Fold, Z Flip, and now Z Fold2, and how these compare with Microsoft’s newly released Surface Duo. We also speculate on Apple’s folding phone — how much it'll cost, when we'll see it, and whether it will carry the "iPhone" name. For “Quick News” we get caught in a whirlwind of new devices, including the updated 27-inch iMac, Zoom’s ProTrak P4 multitrack podcast recorder, and Sony's WH-1000xM4 ANC headphones.

Hi, Gabe here. Apologies for my bad audio quality. I was so overwhelmed by mystic bronze that I forgot to switch on my mic to record.
This episode of the podcast is ALL ABOUT mirrorless cameras. And before you ask — of course we talk about the Sony a7S III vs the Canon EOS R5. Or rather, why these new mirrorless cameras *shouldn’t* be compared. We discuss how the a7S III is better suited for video shooters, while the EOS R5 remains a great option for photographers. Gabe reviews the a7 III in “Go Review” and provides context for how we are now in the third generation of mirrorless cameras.
