Fevzi Turkalp, the Gadget Detective, joins Kirsten O'Brien to discuss the latest tech news and answer listener's questions. This week; Apple announce the release of their latest products, including their newest smart watch, bringing features such as measuring blood oxygen levels, and the Apple Watch SE, a cut down but more affordable version, plus new iPads and subscription services for fitness programs. The question this week is whether it's possible to upgrade the hard drive in an older HP laptop.

First Gadget of the Week is the PNY Mobee gimble for smartphones. Designed to take out the wobble and shake to produce smoother videos this gadget has three motors to stabilize motion, plus has an app that sports face and object tracking and panorama creation with an included tripod. To find out how this scored a very respectable 4 out of 5, listen in.

Second Gadget of the Week is the Crucial X8 external SSD. Available in half, one, and two terabyte sizes, these small, portable USBC devices are the ideal way to extend the storage your PC, laptop, or even games consoles and tablets. Scoring 4.5 out of 5, these are excellent upgrade options.
