The New Screen Savers 121
Essential Phone Review and Teardown
Essential Phone, DJI Mavic Pro, Tovala Smart Steam Oven, and more.
Leo Laporte and Jason Howell take an in-depth look at the new Essential Phone PH-1. It finally arrived and Jason has spent a lot of time with it the last few days and will have a review. Also, Kelsea Weber from iFixit.com (a sponsor of TWiT) joins us to talk about what's inside the Essential Phone. They had a hard time getting inside and had to freeze it! (plus they broke two screens!) Leo has the new Mavic Pro drone from DJI. We'll take it for a spin and see if it's worth the high price tag. Megan Morrone has a full review of the Tovala smart oven. Father Robert Ballecer, SJ has some ideas to bring new life to your old remote controls. In Call For Help, we'll talk about whether or not you should install Oreo on your Android phone.
