The Sideload 032: Why your next phone might be a downgrade

Welcome to episode 32 of The Sideload, a 9to5Google podcast. This week, Will welcomes YouTuber and podcaster Steve Radochia back to the show to take a deep dive on Motorola’s latest Razrs. What does it mean for the industry — and for your next phone — when price hikes start being accompanied by tangible downgrades? They also talk about Steve’s new podcast Old’s Cool and spend five minutes debating the merits of each Ocean’s film.
