Chuck Joiner, David Ginsburg, Jeff Butts, Marty Jencius, Ben Roethig, Web Bixby, and Eric Bolden look at the new model of Beats earphones and what they have that AirPods don’t (yet) and a surprise announcement that you can now combine your Apple accounts albeit with a number of requirements. Just for fun, the panel also considers a report that it is increasingly popular for some users to wear their Apple Watch on their ankle, and why one would want to.
