9to5Mac Happy Hour

Benjamin and Chance discuss what an ‘Apple Watch X’ could look like, in what Mark Gurman described as the biggest redesign for the Apple Watch ever. There’s a brewing social media storm about iPhone battery health possibly degrading faster than normal, the iTunes Trailers app is discontinued, and Chance is frustrated with the (un)reliability of the HomePod multi-room experience.
