#SGGQA 222: OnePlus adds XPAN but drops 9T, Apple A15 Poor CPU Gains, Surface Duo 2 and Surface Pro 8 Leaks, Audience Q&A!
OnePlus is cancelling the 9T, but they added a fun new camera feature! The FTC is looking more closely at tech mergers. Apple ripped off another developer's idea, and then blocked their app from the App Store. Surface Duo 2 visits the FCC, and the Surface Pro 8 gets leaked. And we'll really take some time to host a viewer Q&A like I DID NOT do last week! Let's get our tech week started right!
