Bhavishya is back and recovered from his jaunt to CES 2017 and brings tales of clever remotes and audio-syncing smartphones. We also gush over the new leaks of the LG G6, and there is SO MUCH Samsung news it's ridiculous.

Bhavishya is out with post-CES depression, so Abbas and Mike chat about all the things he probably saw on the show floor for our glorious return to podcasting in 2017. That means ALL the Amazon Alexa chat, just how pretty OLED TVs are and whether Blackberry's move to a software-only company is a good idea. Plus - what's Nintendo's plan with the Switch and some serious pontificating about the upcoming crop of MWC 2017 smartphones.

Abbas, Bhavishya and Mike reminisce fondly over their favourite gadgets of 2016, secretly hope that the inclusion of Dubai in the new tvOS screensavers means we might FINALLY be getting Apple Maps support, and bid farewell to Blackberry's hardware division. Oh, and we were wrong about the AirPods delay, shutup.

Abbas, Bhavishya and Mike discuss the rumored demise of the Samsung Galaxy S8's headphone jack, Tim Cook boasting about the Apple Watch having a record quarter, Windows 10 coming to ARM and the new Sony Xperia Ear personal assistant.
