The LG V40 ThinQ is the first 5-camera smartphone to hit the U.S. market. Ultra-wide, wide and telephoto lenses combine to give it more versatility than any other smartphone camera … in theory. The real-world experience is somewhat different, but the V40’s real problem is likely to be the price LG wants at release. Join me for the LG V40 Review!

[iPHONE XS MAX REVIEW]

The iPhone XS Max does everything Apple set out to do. It crams a colossal screen into a manageable casing; gives it a battery big enough to last all day despite that display; and it brings improvements in everything from the camera to Face ID to iOS itself to fashion a worth competitor to that “other” gigantic phone across the Android aisle: Samsung’s Galaxy Note 9. But the iPhone XS Max also carries a price tag starting at $1099, and despite how many people will buy it at that price – I can’t say I’ll be one of them. Join me for the iPhone XS Max Review!

Every time I shoot a video featuring a battery-electric car, someone in the comments pops up to say “you know, the REAL future is hydrogen cars.” The thing is, to drive a hydrogen fuel cell car you need to live near hydrogen fueling stations … and the closest one to my home in Boston is 2,547 miles away. So when I was in San Francisco last week, I called up the fine folks at Toyota and asked them to put me behind the wheel of the Toyota Mirai (which is Japanese for “future,” by the by). Before I knew, it I was hurtling down the highway in Toyota’s FCV, leaving nothing behind me but water. It’s not the freshest news on the block, but still I thought it was a great opportunity to share some details on how hydrogen cars work, why they’re cool … and why I also think they’re probably not the future.

[SAMSUNG GALAXY WATCH REVIEW]

In a sea of Gear Fit 2s and Apple Watch Series 4s and … whatever Casio is calling its latest, the name “Samsung Galaxy Watch” has the double advantage of simplicity and the esteem of the Galaxy brand, which we haven’t seen on a smartwatch since 2013. But such a dramatic re-naming usually signals a very different product – and different this is not. I’m MrMobile and this is the Samsung Galaxy Watch review.

If you’ve watched even a few YouTube videos featuring a host talking to the camera, then you’ve probably laid eyes on a Blue Yeti microphone. This iconic desktop capsule carried me through four years of podcasts and voiceovers back at Pocketnow, and about the only things I found to complain about were its size and weight. So when Blue announced its smaller and lighter sequel just before the IFA 2018 trade show, I knew what I was using for voiceovers in Berlin. I’m Michael Fisher, and the Blue Yeti Nano might just be your next desktop microphone; this is the MrMobile review.

Of all the cool gadgets in Star Trek, one of the least-appreciated is the universal translator, which lets the crew of the Enterprise –or Voyager, or Discovery– talk to pretty much anyone through their communicators. So when I heard there was a real-world version called the Travis Touch, I jumped on it faster than you can say “open hailing frequencies.” I wasn’t able to give it the full review treatment, but I did take it to Germany and Sweden (where I found out how bad my Swedish pronunciation is) and I’ve got some thoughts. Join me for the Travis Touch Hands-On, and check out the link to the Indiegogo campaign below if you think a Travis Touch is a good match for you.

[5 IPHONE FEATURES APPLE JUST KILLED]

Today, as you may have heard, Apple announced three new iPhones: the iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max and iPhone XR, along with a brand-new wearable in the Apple Watch Series 4. That’s a lot to get excited about for iOS fans, and I’m eager to review them all. But in releasing this new wave of devices, Apple has also killed off a handful of features that made owning an iPhone so great. Join me for a look at 5 of these features, then join me on the dock of the Bay as I pour out a little Anchor Steam for the iPhone SE.

Earlier this year Mercedes-Benz let me sit behind the wheel of the most futuristic electric car I had ever seen. But the “Concept EQ” was just what you’d expect: a concept. So when Mercedes invited me to swing on over to Stockholm to check out the real version coming to market next year, I hopped the first sailboat I could find. This is the Mercedes-Benz EQC400, a crossover SUV with an all-electric power plant, an all-Mercedes fit-and-finish … and a spec sheet that’s already stirring up a few mixed feelings. Join me for a first look at one of the first electric SUVs to take on Tesla in a big way.

You’ve seen smartphones, you’ve seen smart watches … but this is something else entirely. The Nubia Alpha / nubia-α is a “wearable smartphone” slated for a Holiday 2018 release … and it’s also the weirdest thing I saw at IFA 2018. Join me for a Nubia Alpha hands-on (kinda).
