TNSS 181: Can Helium Break Your iPhone? - Caavo Control Center, Acer Swift 7 & Chromebook Spin 15, OnePlus 6T, and more.
On The New Screen Savers recorded on Saturday, November 3, 2018, with Leo Laporte and Patrick Norton:
Leo and Patrick discuss how passcodes are protected under the Fifth Amendment; and the new iPad Pro, MacBook Air, and Mac mini that was announced at Apple's October event.
Apparently, iPhones can be rendered useless by helium so Leo tries to drown his iPhone XR with a balloon while talking to iFixit co-founder Kyle Wiens, who has done tests of their own and explains what causes it to happen.
Patrick reviews Caavo's 2nd-gen Control Center which unifies your home theater with a voice-activated universal remote.
Leo gives his review for two Acer laptops. One is 'the world's thinnest notebook,' the Swift 7; and the other is a large 15" Chrome OS 2-in-1, the Chromebook Spin 15.
OnePlus continues to push the envelope in getting flagship features in an affordable phone with the OnePlus 6T. Jason Howell gives his review.
