The Accessible Technology Podcast

The PS4 came out in 2013, and although it has now been branded an old console compared to Sony’s new console, the PS5, it is still a console that a lot of people have decided to get now, as it has went down in price.

But in this episode, I give all my thoughts on it and on PlayStation in General.

The Xbox One S was originally launched in 2016, but the Minecraft edition only came out in 2017. You can get a version of the console which is a digital only console and a version which has a disc drive, but whichever one you get, you'll have access to a wide range of games, thanks to Xbox's Backwards Compatibility, including some of the original xbox games; xbox 360 games, the full Xbox One library of games and some Series X/S games. Furthermore, it also supports Bluetooth controllers, but beyond all of this, how accessible is it for disabled people?

Apple first released the iPhone X in 2017, and it had a lot going for it. It was the first iPhone to come with Face ID, and is even compatible with wireless chargers (though not magnetic ones). But even so, how accessible is it?

The Apple TV 4K First Generation was first introduced in 2017, following on from 4 other models, including the first of Apple’s tv boxes which was released 10 years beforehand. The only colour it is available in is black, but Apple does give you slightly more choice when it comes to the Storage Capacity, with a choice between 32GB or 64GB, and it also lets you connect Bluetooth devices to it, including your phone or bluetooth game controllers.

You can currently buy the first generation 4K Apple TV model for between £75-£99, compared to £149 for a wifi version of the current generation or £169 for the Wifi version with Ethernet, and in this episode, I give you a review of the one I have.

The mid 2015 15” MacBook Pro by Apple is the last of Apple’s Retina model macs, and the first to feature a Force Touch Trackpad. The last to include a full array of ports, which include a MagSafe 2 Power Port, 2 Thunderport ports of up to 20GBps, 2 USB 3 ports of up to to 5GBps, an HDMI port, a 3.5mm headphone jack and an SDXC card slot, it also allows you to connect to Bluetooth keyboards and trackpads.

But with it now being down to £282, with some going for lower, is it still worth buying?

In this episode, I’ll answer that question.

Skullcandy is an American headphone company, founded by Rick Alden in 2003, and which sells wired and wireless earphones and headphones, at somewhat an affordable price. Some of their current headphone brands include Hesh, Riff, Crusher and Cassette headphones, and with a good range of earphone brands and gaming headsets to choose from as well, they are a really good brand!

But it's their Uproar Wireless Headphones that have been discontinued on their website (although you can still get them on Amazon). I bought them in 2019 while I was completing my second year of an HND in Broadcast Journalism. Here's my review of them.
