#SGGQA 142: Pixel Chips, ESRB vs Lootboxes, Thoughts on the iPhone SE 2020
Protests against Social Distancing are HORRIFICALLY astro-turfed! ESRB is labeling games with lootboxes in the ratings! Google might make their own chips for future Pixels! Huawei is using DSLRs AGAIN for “sample photos”. Samsung is pulling the “green tint” update for the Galaxy S20. We’ve got more fun internet freebies on the way!
And here are my thoughts on the new iPhone SE 2020 (before i get my hands on it)!
Let’s get our tech week started right!
