Week seventeen: Acer's new gaming laptop and the Samsung Galaxy Note 20

As usual we're talking about a variety of topics from the world of tech. First up, we begin the show with our thoughts on Apple's WWDC 2020.

We also discuss the iPadOS 14 release date and features, everything we know about the macOS 11 Big Sur, and watchOS 7's details too.

We'll also be chatting about our review of the TCL 10 Pro, why Ninja and Shroud turned down Facebook Gaming's substantial offer and all about the Google Pixel 4a.

Meanwhile, this week's 'Unpopular Opinions' slot is that we're not a fan of Apple AirPower. But why? You're going to have to listen to the show to find out more.

For all this and more, tune into the all-new Noise Cancelling podcast – you can subscribe on Spotify, grab it on Apple podcasts, or find us wherever you get your pods. New episodes land every Friday.
