09/13/24 • 80 min
Another year of Apple has really grown to become just that: another year. At least, that's what we think of it. And by "we," we of course mean the Android Police podcast and Joe Maring, mobile editor for Digital Trends who happened to be at Apple Park this week for the big launch. That leaves us with some questions about how the deck is stacked against Google and whether there are opportunities to be taken here. We dive in.
- 5 takeaways for Android users from Apple's September hardware event
- Apple's new iPhone 16 is here showcasing a feature Android OEMs should copy
- Apple really wants you to switch from Android to one of its new iPhone 16 models
- Apple’s lackluster iPhone 16 updates leave the door wide open for Google
- iPhone 16 and 16 Pro hands-on: all about the button | Digital Trends
- Apple Watch Series 10 hands-on: a bigger upgrade than you think | Digital Trends

The Pixel Fold's Three-Gen Jump ft. Michael Fisher
The Pixel 9 Pro Fold is coming into its own... or at least it's helping Google do so in the field of foldable phones. On this Android Police podcast, we've invited back Michael Fisher of the Mr. Mobile fame to rattle through the full width of the delta from the Pixel Fold. The 9 Pro Fold is so much better, no doubt, but will it make the case for millions and millions of people to go to their carrier store and buy this or any other foldable? Or is the sea change always going to be another year away?
Also, we've got a (rough, but serviceable) video version of the show! It's our first one in years, though, so do check it out.

- The Pixel 9 Pro Fold wins in the one area where foldables usually fail
- I've used the Pixel 9 Pro Fold for a week. Here's what you need to know right now
