We reveal details about Microsoft’s conversation with the UK’s competition watchdog about the Microsoft Activision-Blizzard merger. IBM announced it will sell its weather business The Weather Company to private equity firm Francisco Partners. And we have a Pixel Fold roundtable as Tom, Huyen and Shannon share their experiences with Google’s foldable smartphone.
Potato Cameras - GDI 4588 starts at 30:48
The Pixel Fold discussion continues. How do you feel about bezels? Will a phone eat a phone? How much multitasking do you do on a phone? When will Apple have a foldable? Would you want a foldable tablet? Would you rather your device fold to be smaller or fold to be bigger? Tom really wants a scrollable device. When was the last time you cleaned your phone? Tom is looking for case suggestions for his Pixel Fold. Phone case talk takes over. Sarah runs her phone without a case. What do you use to pay for your groceries?
Starring Tom Merritt, Sarah Lane, Shannon Morse, Huyen Tue Dao, Roger Chang, Joe.
