Apple’s laying off the hardware, but laying on content publishers hard to join its future single-stream subscription hubs and they don’t like how much Cupertino wants. All the while, people are happy to spend more on apps. Plus, the truth on a Project Ara revival and Google’s Pixel 4 and some 5G marketing inflation from AT&T.

It’s all ahead on the Pocketnow Weekly!

The show

  • Check out our Galaxy S10 rumor roundup and what we’re looking to cover at MWC 2019!
  • Apple is reportedly planning a March 25th event. It likely won’t bring new versions of AirPods or the iPad mini, but it may push on Apple-hosted single-stream subscription services. But some prospective content providers think Apple’s charging too much for entry.
  • This year’s iPhones will charge slow out of the box. All the hope for fast charging adapters has gone away.
  • People are spending more and more money on the App Store every year…
  • Please head to podsurvey.com/pocketnow and help us find advertisers that suit you so that we can continue to do the show just like we’ve always done! Thanks!
