Join Joshua Vergara, along with Nicole Scott (@Nicole_Scooter), Jaime Rivera (@Jaime_Rivera) and Juan Carlos Bagnell (@SomeGadgetGuy) to talk IFA 2016. A meta discussion on tech events, including lots of talk about recent device announcements, turns to wearables and how they are becoming gender specific, which leads to gender role generalizations and possibly misguided expectations in the industry. At least IFA Young sounds like a ton of fun, for the millennials. Finally, VR takes the stage, with debate on rollout philosophy and the value for the average user.  Thank you for joining us.

Seven. Joshua Vergara has his hands full this week with a total personality list of seven. Joe Hindy, Jonathan Feist, Andrew Grush, Nirave Gondhia, Lanh Nguyen and John Dye are all on deck to talk about seven, the Note 7 that is. In a particularly on-point show, even if a little extra long, the topic is almost exclusively the new Samsung Galaxy Note 7. Opinions come freely, particularly for the three that have had the chance to hold the phone already. With opinions ranging from unimpressed all the way up to 'I pre-ordered mine already,' join us to talk about the latest from Samsung. Thank you for joining us.

�� With Joshua Vergara away at a Samsung event, Jonathan Feist and Joe Hindy bring John Dye back onto the show - who ends up joining from a coffee shop due to weather issues in his area. A fairly chill conversation ensues, including words like 'reprobate' and attempts to pronounce John Legere. Topics on deck include the new ZTE Axon 7, a slick looking flagship calibre phone that has Bluetooth, Prisma, the app that makes your images look good, and talk about rumors of two Nexus phones coming soon from HTC. Sailfish and Marlin are the codenames for 5.2-inch and 5.5-inch phones with similar specs, save for display resolution, if nothing else. Thank you for joining us.

Joshua Vergara is joined by Joe Hindy, Jonathan Feist and are happy to have Lanh Nguyen partake in the shenanigans as they round out a short discussion, possibly ending our long running topic of Pokemon. Once that was out of the way, Josh asked the team about their desires for Comic-Con, leading back to a quick chat about messaging applications. Snickers have nougat. Finally, our discussion on the new Motorola (Lenovo) Moto Z line turns into an existential conversation on the review process, USB Type-C audio and how great or terrible mods and customizations can be on the Moto phone.

Joshua Vergara leads the team through a lengthy introduction, where Joe Hindy talks Pokemon Go, Nirave Gondhia talks about returning home to the UK and Jonathan Feist is hanging out in downtown Portland for a while. Discussion turns to the Samsung Galaxy Note 7, we have plenty to say, particularly expanding our conversation to talk about modern smartphone needs, features, competitive edge and more. We round out the show with a lively discussion about USB Type-C audio, as opposed to the old 3.5mm jack. Then Nirave fell asleep. In his absence, we discussed Amazon Prime Day for a moment, where Josh shopped for a 1GB hard drive. Thank you for joining us.

That's what he said. In a super chill, but overly thoughtful episode, Joshua Vergara, Joe Hindy and Jonathan Feist muse over the release of Pokemon GO in North America and discuss another strong game title hitting Android, Final Fantasy VII is ready for download.

Joshua Vergara is back, safe and sound, and is joined by Joe Hindy, Jonathan Feist and Nirave Gondhia. Tune in to listen to our ramblings on Brexit, just a little, but only after we dive into the fancy new name for Android N - Android Nougat - but how do you pronounce that now?!?! Final Fantasy Brave Exvius takes the stage for a bit, before we discuss the recent leaks of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 and its expected, but maybe not appreciated, iris scanner.  Thank you for joining us.

Our best wishes go out to Josh, his family and his neighbors as they deal with a forest fire dangerously close to their homes in California. Jonathan Feist leads a wildly off topic episode while Joe Hindy, Andrew Grush and Nirave Gondhia help keep the laughs rolling. We eventually get down to the leathery hot mess that is the naming schemes of the X and Z for Sony and Motorola. The Sony Xperia X line, as well as the Lenovo Motorola Moto Z line, offer all the right specs, but you'll have to listen to find out if we are still underwhelmed with the devices or ready to drop cash on these new phones. In the final moments, Joe is allowed to address the somewhat ridiculous idea that the Android app market is in decline, come analyze some data with us. Thank you for joining us.

Coming live from E3 2016 in Los Angeles, Josh is joined by Jonathan Feist and heads of VRSource Android Grush and John Velasco (for his first ever podcast!) to talk video games and VR from the trade show floor. Well, not really, because they couldn't record among the different game vendors and displays but instead had to sit in the South Hall Lobby as the final day of the show winded down. With VR taking the spotlight at this year's E3, this episode of the podcast becomes basically a VRSource podcast, but the antics are about as #AAPodcast as it can get. John Velasco fits right into the talks as he recounts experiences with the Oculus Rift, the HTC Vive, and Playstation VR! The rest of the guys also share the fun they had escaping from the real world and embracing all kinds of reality! Head over to VRSource for all the best news on all kinds of reality - and keep it here for the Android Authority Podcast, discussing topics in Android every week.

With a large group of our team meeting up in Los Angeles for a few days, Josh Vergara, Andrew Grush and Jonathan Feist stole a few minutes away to record a few words for you. We have so much exciting news for you and a great week of videogame content headed your way, so a few minutes is all we stole away. Join us for a quick word on what we're up to (hint: VR Source,) looking forward to sharing all of our E3 experiences with you as well, so be sure to check in next time. We also want to say a quick word of condolences to all that have been lost to violence in the last short amount of time. Josh, in particular, shares his feelings on the senseless act that ended the life of the young YouTube artist, Christina Grimmie. For her and all lost in Orlando this past week, our thoughts are with you. Thank you for joining us.

Jonathan Feist and Joe Hindy get to ask Nirave Gondhia and Lanh Nguyen all about Computex on this episode of the Android Authority Podcast. Virtual reality was a major player at the technology event held in Taiwan, Captain America themed hardware also made an impact on the team, but laptops, tablets and other computer hardware aside, the guys have more to say about the weather and food than anything.
