Summary
Fevzi Turkalp, the Gadget Detective, joins Clive Bull on LBC to discuss the latest tech news. This week; Meta's Ray Ban Smart Glasses have started putting some previously free features behind a subscription paywall, notably one that's used by those with hearing issues, is this fair on those who bought the product under the impression the features were included? Are subscription models in general getting exploitative? Gadget of the Week goes to; Majority D100X Powered Bookshelf Speakers. These powered compact speakers come with HDMI ARC to allow you to connect to a TV, along with optical, phono, aux, Bluetooth, headphone socket, and a USB socket for playback of music or even powering another device, all controlled with an included remote. Available in black or white, these are an excellent upgrade to your home audio. Scoring 4 out of 5, listen in for more details. You can hear the Gadget Detective on LBC every Friday morning around 3.40am and you can follow and contact him on X @gadgetdetective and BlueSky @GadgetDetective.com #Fevzi #Turkalp #Gadget #Detective #Tech #Technology #News #Reviews #Help #Advice #Clive #Bull #LBC #Radio #Meta #Zuckerberg #Ray #Ban #Smart #Glasses #Wearable #Focus #Pay #Wall #Charge #Subscription #Hearing #Speech #Antivirus #Exploitation #BMW #Heated #Seats #Voltswagen #VW #Amazon #Apple #Online #Services #Google #GadgetoftheWeek #Week #Majority #D100X #Powered #Bookshelf #Speakers #HDMI #Bluetooth #Phono #RCA #Headphone #Optical #USB #Aux #Remote #Black #White #TV #Audio #Music
