About this episode

The episode discusses Google's Android 17 and its implications for Apple's iOS 27, along with Google's new Googlebook announcement and its competition with the MacBook Neo.

Plus, Google's new Googlebook announcement aims to take a piece of the mid-range to higher-end laptop market, but the MacBook Neo is already winning. Learn more about your ad choices.
