It is thanks to all of you that the show continues to grow and we certainly appreciate each of you for taking the time to tune in each week. Main Discussion On Today’s Episode The team sat down and discussed CES 2021 and all the announcements that matter. There were the usual announcements by Asus and HP, but this year, there was a great deal announced that is relevant to blind and visually-impaired consumers, and those with hearing loss, as well as other disabilities.

Marco talks about the <https://bit.ly/2KuCbSo> Trade Up for Samsung app on Google Play and is thoroughly disappointed with the process Samsung puts Australian users through in order to purchase the new Samsung S21 offerings and how inaccessible the Samsung app is. Did You Know? Actions are a powerful way of accessing certain system events both on iOS and Android.
