#SGGQA 330: DOJ Antitrust Case Against Apple, LG Smartphone on Wheels, AR and VR at CES 2024

2 hours 33 minutes

Video Replay on Twitch!

Netflix is potentially going to do something REALLY dumb with their game catalog. Apple is likely facing an antitrust lawsuit from the DOJ.

CES is in FULL swing with some hot announcements already hitting the show floor. Dell and Razer are showing off new laptops. LG has a smartphone on wheels concept. XREAL and Qualcomm are talking about AR.

And we should spend a little time catching up on the gear in the GadgetLab!

Let's get our tech week started right!
