A tech podcast for the gadget lovers and tech heads among us from the mind of Marques Brownlee, better known as MKBHD. MKBHD has made a name for himself on YouTube reviewing everything from the newest smartphones to cameras to electric cars. Pulling from over 10 years of experience covering the tech industry, MKBHD and co-hosts Andrew Manganelli and David Imel will keep you informed and entertained as they take a deep dive into the latest and greatest in tech and what deserves your hard earned cash. New episodes every week. Waveform is part of the Vox Media Podcast Network.
We wanna make the podcast even better, help us learn how we can: https://bit.ly/2EcYbu4
This week, Marques, Andrew, and David sit down to discuss everything from a new Huawei flip phone to the battle going on between the EU and Apple. They also talk about the new Fuji camera which David got to try out and a whole bunch of iPhone rumors. Plus, it's the last episode of the month so you know everyone had some strong opinions about what their Crown and Clown was! It was complete chaos (in a good way). Enjoy!

Waveform Podcast Live at SXSW 2025!
It's bonus episode time! Marques, Andrew, and David took the stage at SXSW 2025 this past Saturday to live in front of an audience for the first time! They started with the news that Apple Intelligence is getting delayed (again) before talking a bit about Digg making a comeback. If you don't know what Digg is, don't worry Andrew explains it. Then they took a bunch of questions from audience members with topics ranging from podcasting to AI and health tech. It was super fun to do our first live show and thank you do much to everyone that came to check it out! We had a blast and can't wait to do another one.

Would You Watch YouTube at 4x Speed?
This week, Marques and Andrew kicked things off by trying to explain to David the absurdity of the Luka Doncic trade in tech terms that he would understand. After that, it was all about the Pixel 4a battery update issue. Then they discuss a new app that Apple just dropped and a new app that Adam is really excited about. They wrap it all up talking about Meta trying to make the Metaverse happen, YouTube experimenting with 4x speed, and Andrew ranting about streaming services.

Apple Vision Pro Turns One: Spatial Reality Check
This week, Ellis sits down with Andrew and David to discuss everything Apple Vision Pro! It has been almost exactly one year since the Apple Vision Pro was first released, so we thought it'd be a good idea to talk with actual developers about what they like and don't like about building apps for Apple's new device. Enjoy!
