Xiaomi is relaunching in South Africa with actual in country representatives. Gavin and Lindsey are always looking for more value in the market and Xiaomi's vast product catalogue is very hard to beat for diversity and value for money. Nicola fills us in on the brand strategy as it now tries to carve out a place in the South African market.

This week South Africa's most accessible consumer technology podcast unpacks the Apple earnings, Lindsey is very excited for the Huawei P50 Pro, Gavin lost R3000 trying to set up an Azure virtual machine cloud computer, there's a Samsung Unpacked folding phone preview and we finally figure out why tech reviews have become so poor. There's also the Sony ZV-M10 preview and a little tribute to the excellent LG Velvet 5G (RIP to a real one).
