Poco M3 Pro 5G, Google I/O 2021 Recap | TSW64

Unboxing the week's big tech news, including the Poco M3 Pro 5G launch and Google IO 2021, which revealed the fresh Android 12 design and a much-needed Wear OS upgrade courtesy of Samsung.

The only proper phone news this week was that Poco M3 Pro 5G, which serves up a 90Hz screen, Dimensity 700 chipset and 5000mAh battery. Not to mention a oh-god-my-eyes bright yellow design. I'll be reviewing this smart little budget phone soon but it looks very similar to the Redmi Note 10 5G which already launched out in Asia (and I'll be covering that one very soon also).

Google IO 2021 was a big one too, with Android 12's material design announced. We saw updates to privacy and security, plus Google also revealed its Wear OS plans. Here's hoping that Samsung partnerships bears some delicious fruit.

Fuck its been 3 years already? I remember when he was on recombu And then all of a sudden Tech Spurt came and I have never stopped watching.

[jopo]

Booze spurt, Singel malt reviews, I'm SO ON. We need it now

[iainlivingstone]

Wow 3 years 👏👏👏 started with watching recombu and then Tech Spurt 👌 my first stop watch for tech, keep up the highly entertaining and informative stuff 😎

[Mechnizmo]

A full review for Axon 30, while sippin on some good lager? Sounds like something to look forward to.

[thomasrobinson]

I've been looking to change my phone for a while. I still haven't seen one to tempt me. I know that you will show an even better one over the next couple of days.

Hey Chris, tech question here. Any thoughts about Xiaomi's problem with video recording? Their videos have a fixed 96kbps audio bitrate. Is there any fix for that?

[greenfrog]

Yes Invincible! Its fucking great. Couldn't recommend it enough

[andyw]

Just out of interest, what day of the week do you usually record and read the comments for TSW? Also, love the reviews, and the cheeky banter, you absolute mad lad!

[Randomness]

how Tech Spurt doesn't have millions of subs is beyond me

[pandalabs]

It ain't a tech spurt weekly without alcohol

[lourenco_ss]

12:45 I had to rewatch this show too many times!! And also: it has a rather nice catchy tune!

[smarthome]

Absolutely hilarious as usual. I wish you'd review escooters, that would funny. The Booze Spurt sounds good, I like a cask ale or 10 myself.

Hey Chris, I'm Just Wondering But Can You Put An Ultra Wide And An Action Cam Together?

[GreeboandGaspode]

Is it just me that isn't a fan of curved edged phones? Got the Huawei P30 pro and looking to change whats my best options?

[johnpaulgraham]

Alright Chris. Xiaomi Mi 11, Mi 10T Lite and Redme Note 10 Pro. Taking into account the lack of actual 5g access nationwide which phone would you go for? Does the price of the 10T Lite and the Note 10 Pro, mean that the Mi 11 is overpriced in comparison? Or can you recommend another?
ps Camera tech, screen and battery/charging speed are top of my list. I'm normally a Sony guy. But I'm getting rather miffed with these long breaks between launch and release!

[joakim]

Since you like anime Chris have you seen Castlevania or Blood of Zeus? Both are on Netflix.
