Опубликовано 11 декабря 2014, 19:42

Updated with links to download and stream the Weekly 126 here (/2014/12/14/galaxy-note-edge-review-podcast). Additionally, we'd like to apologize to our listeners this week, as the recording quality isn't quite as good as usual because of multiple technical difficulties. We hope you enjoy the episode, however, and we'll see you right back here next week!

It's the sleekest slice of the future this side of the Galaxy Round and LG G Flex, and we've got it on the air. This week on the Pocketnow Weekly, it's the Galaxy Note Edge review (podcast edition) and we're eager to take all your questions just as quickly as you can submit them, so make sure your Hangouts Q&A app is oiled and ready if you're listening live!

And whether you're joining us live or listening to the rebroadcast, you're gonna get all the mobile news you've come to expect from the show. This week, we're talking updates to Android Wear, Cortana and the secrecy-centric Blackphone; new Windows Phone functionality and new rumors about a Galaxy S6 Edge; and some mudslinging between Facebook and Apple that has our chief news editor in a tizzy.

If that sounds like the ideal remedy for a gray winter afternoon, Pocketnow has the podcast you've been looking for. Join us for Pocketnow Weekly 126 below –either through the live video stream at 12:30pm Eastern on December 11 (click here for your local time), or the high-quality audio version available later on– and shoot your questions to podcast [AT] pocketnow [DOT] com for a shot at getting your question read aloud on the air. See you then!

Music

It may just sound like a ringtone to you, but our transition music track ("Radiation") is a real song, from a real album, by a real artist: Ali Spagnola. You can download that album, along with many others, at Ali's website (alispagnola.com), visit her YouTube page (youtube.com/alispags), and follow her on Twitter (twitter.com/alispagnola)!

Thanks for watching! See you next week!
