Tune into episode 504 of the Mobile Tech Podcast with guest Paul Jones of Android Authority -- brought to you by Mint Mobile. In this episode, we review several Googlebooks (buckle down, it's gonna be a bumpy ride) and compare Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold8 (it's love) with Apple's iPhone Duo (it's complicated). We then dive into Arri's Cinema Mode (impressive) on Honor's Magic9 Pro Max and discuss Motorola's (now official) Signature 27. Finally, we cover rumors, leaks, and news from Samsung, Apple, and Xiaomi. Enjoy :)
