  • Droid Life Show: Episode 188 - October's Home Stretch

    On this episode of the Droid Life Show, we're just trying to survive a few more days of this wild October. We only have one phone launch left, but that doesn't mean the work or news flow will slow any time soon. This week, though, we've got our Razer Phone 2 review out, Pixel 3's Night Sight mode in the wild, and OnePlus 6T specs from a retailer, all topics that we'd like to dive into.

    We'll also run through some of the Pixel 3's supposed issues, the latest on Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S10 and foldable phone, the hotness of the Xiaomi Mi Mix 3, some new Wear OS watches, and the free 4K upgrades some of you should have already gotten. It'll be another packed show!

    Trivia is back too! Be sure to stick around until the end of the show to win fabulous prizes (Google Play credit).

    We'll be live at 12:00PM Pacific (3PM Eastern).

  • Droid Life Show: Episode 187 - Pixel 3 Review!

    On this episode of the Droid Life Show, we're running through our review of the Google Pixel 3! We have had the phone in house for almost two weeks now, put it through plenty of testing, and want to talk more about it on the show.

    In addition to Pixel 3 chat, we can show you the RED Hydrogen One phone and Montblanc Summit 2 on air, discuss the OnePlus 6T possibly working on Verizon, what cuts to Essential's workforce mean, and why the Palm companion phone is actually kind of an interesting idea.

    Trivia is back today, with fabulous prizes provided by our friends at iFixit!

  • Droid Life Show: Episode 186 - Google Brought Some New Stuff

    On this episode of the Droid Life Show, we're recapping the big Made by Google event that went down this week! For some of us in this Android world, this is the big one each year, because it often gives us the vision for Google's platforms for the next 12 months and beyond. Whether you like the hardware or not, there is a lot to digest.

    So we'll dive into the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL (obviously), share first impressions, talk about the notch, figure out who is buying either phone, and which features are coming to your older Pixel or Pixel 2. Then, we'll move into Google Home Hub, Pixel Slate, new Chromecast, and general themes out of the festivities.

    After that, assuming we have time, we'll get into the Razer Phone 2, new Essential Phone news, the death of Google+, and when the OnePlus is coming.

    We're still deciding on trivia, but may pass on it this week because of the number of big topics.

  • Droid Life Show: Episode 185 - Days From Pixel 3

    On this episode of the Droid Life Show, we're basically just preparing for a wild next week. The Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL will finally be official, as will Google Home Hub, and (likely) a new Pixelbook or Pixel Slate. We can't wait for the hype to die and the review period to start. So we want to walk through any last minute happenings involving all of Google's new stuff.

    Then, we'll talk LG V40, since it's now official and we've already reviewed it. We also want to dive into LG's new Watch W7 with mechanical hands, other Google updates, Wear OS news, and the latest on the OnePlus 6T.

    Trivia is back today! Google Play credit to all 5 winners!

  • Droid Life Show: Episode 184 - October Fun is Here
    On this episode of the Droid Life Show, we're back after a couple week break to prepare for an October that is going to be wild. Next month, we'll have new devices from Google, Razer, OnePlus, Samsung, and LG, just to name a few. For this show, we'll try to catch you up on what to expect from each.
    After that, we'll talk about Amazon's crazy device reveal day, Wear OS 2.0 and new watches, as well as the worst news ever - that Google is killing Inbox.

  • Droid Life Show: Episode 183 - The Notch has a Date
    On this episode of the Droid Life Show, we can confirm to you the date of the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL reveal! We have some bad news as it relates to the Pixel Watch, though, but it'll still be an event to tune in for.
    We also want to talk about the wave of new phones on the horizon that aren't made by Google. Samsung said to expect a reveal of their foldable Galaxy X phone in November, plus a Razer Phone 2, OnePlus 6T soon, and more.

  • Droid Life Show: Episode 182 - Pixel 3 Leaks are a Bit Much
    On this episode of the Droid Life Show, we're looking back at the past two weeks of Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL leaks. Neither phone can stay out of the spotlight, yet we're still at least a month from Google announcing either. It's getting ridiculous at this point.
    But IFA also went down this week, so we've got new phones from Motorola, LG, Sony, and HTC to talk about, as well as a bunch of new Wear OS watches and a new version of Wear OS. We want to talk about Verizon's unlimited mishap too and why this is going to be a smartphone year to forget.

    After that, it's on to the latest massive Pixel 3 XL leaks, followed by the Galaxy Note 9 and Moto Z3 launches, Fortnite for Android, and more. It's a packed show!
    Since it's a packed show, we're dropping trivia this week. Apologies for that, but this might be a long one and don't want to keep you all around for 3 hours.
    We'll be live at 11:00AM Pacific (2:00PM Eastern).
