The TechRadar crew is back to talk tech, and this week we’re discussing the Google Pixel 9a’s baffling redesign (let’s be real – it’s ugly, and why did Google get rid of the iconic crossbar?).
We also dig into the struggles of the smartwatch market, asking if wearables brands are doing enough to produce devices that are innovative and exciting, and Samsung’s One UI 7 woes, with its delayed smartphone OS in danger of being lapped by the next release of Android.
To take us through all this and more Josie Watson and I (Hamish Hector) are joined by TechRadar’s Fitness, Wellness, and Wearables Editor Matt Evans, US Mobiles Editor Philip Berne, and special guest Matt Kolla,T3’s Active Editort.
