"At Unpacked this year, Samsung released some of the most powerful phones ever seen: the S20, S20+, S20 Ultra, and the Z Flip. These have top-of-the-line specs and are all equipped with 5G, meaning that when the technology has become mainstream, people will not have to upgrade their phones for them to be able to use the new technology. Also, the cameras on all three phones, especially on the S20 Ultra. All in all, Samsung has a winning product, and Apple’s executives should be worried about sales."

EP2: The Addiction of Gamepigeon This podcast is made by the students of Harvard Westlake middle school. Please note that this podcast has nothing to do with Harvard Westlake School and any of its affiliates, and it is neither sponsored nor funded by Harvard Westlake. This episode covers a popular text-messaging app called Gamepigeon which allows users to play two-player games against each other. Our guests, Jack Ryan and Eric Chang will speak about how this is impacting text-messaging today, and if this will continue to be a popular tradition in using your mobile device. Below is a short segment from the episode. "I am very happy for Gamepigeon’s existence and think it is a very good business idea. The way it was built has made it popular and regularly-played, and I give lots of credit to the company for making this a trend. Even though I play the same games a lot, taking the bus and texting friends on the weekend has kept me coming back to play more and more. The pros certainly outweigh the cons, and the biggest problem I had was that the game was too addicting, which is actually a good job done by the creators. I would definitely like to continue playing Gamepigeon and hope it continues to be used in the coming years.  " This podcast is hosted by William Liu, produced by Alden Detmer, Eric Chang, Victor Suh, and Julian Cortez.
