#SGGQA 247: E3 2022 Cancelled, XPERIA for eSports, OnePlus 10 Pro Reactions, iPhone Subscription Plans

2 hours 26 minutes

We're back!

US Senators are asking for more scrutiny of the Microsoft acquisition of Activision. EU regulators are looking into strict new rules for tech giants. E3 is TOTALLY CANCELLED! Apple wants you to lease your next iPhone directly from them. PUBG chooses XPERIA for esports.

We've got a BUNCH of new phones to chat about, and MAYBE I still have some game codes to give away...

Let's get OUR tech week started right!
