Gadgettes G/O Media

This week on Gadgettes, we’re seriously curious about what you’re watching on Netflix. Is it Stranger Things? Is it Bling Empire? Is anything you’re watching on the streaming service worth it if they start charging you to share your password with other people? Then, we’re talking about ergonomics. It’s not sexy, but when your back and wrists start hurting, you need to consider whether you’re using the right mouse or sitting in a proper chair. (Sorry, gamers, but gaming chairs are not inherently ergonomic!) Finally, we’ll fan over the latest trailer for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.

This week on Gadgettes, we're womansplaining why the latest update on Samsung's Galaxy Watch 4 is not the best thing since sliced bread. Flo's been running it for a few days, and it's buggy! Meanwhile, Michelle is enjoying the Apple Watch SE. Then, we'll get into cloud gaming apps like Google Stadia and Xbox Game Pass and tell you why we have our reservations. Finally, Flo takes a moment to rant about why we need to stop putting screens in cars. 

Lastly, we need to make a slight correction! When we said Maxis was the purveyor of Sid Meier's studio, we meant Wil Wright! We regret the error.

This week on Gadgettes, we've got our honorary Dude-gette filling in as our co-host is out sick. Phillip Tracy joins us to talk about what's next from Apple, as foretold by the rumor mill churning away. We'll talk about the latest patents filed by Apple and dive into some of the reports from noted leakers. Then, Sony does it again, grooving into our hearts with its new WH-1000XM5 headphones. The model name doesn't quite roll off the tongue, but you won't care once you realize these are some of the best headphones money can buy. Finally, in defense of printers, Flo explains why she asked Birthday Santa to equip her with an at-home print shop.

This week on Gadgettes, Google held its annual developer conference, and it's all we're talking about. We'll give you the details on the new Pixel hardware coming through the pipeline, from the Pixel 6a to the Pixel tablet that's not due until 2023. Then, we'll go through some other new Google features announced at its keynote. The company will let you delete yourself from searches and let you edit the types of ads that it serves you. But as always, there are caveats. Finally, we'll get into how we feel about Google's "one more thing."

Then, a look ahead at what's on the horizon in Gadgetland. New phones, watches, and VR headsets are coming, and we'll tell you why you might want to wait. Finally, Michelle and Flo go all-in on their respective Star Wars fandom and why the prequels aren’t that bad.

We’re sorry that Gadgettes is not only delayed this week but that we have to talk about Elon Musk buying Twitter. It was the biggest news of the week–it still is!–and it will affect everyone who is on the platform. Then, we’ll talk about the Pixel Watch “leak” and why the shenanigans around it are still not enough to convince us it will fix Android’s problem with smartwatches. Finally, we get into the wonders of mechanical keyboards, from the actual boards we love to use to the switches we prefer to type on.
