Exploring edge AI, robotics, and quantum computing with Infineon, Apple iPhone 17 series and iPhone Air first impressions, Lenovo Legion Go 2, and more with Adrian Mikolajczak and Carolina Milanesi

The show opens with Myriam Joire and Adrian Mekowiczak tied to Infineon’s October Tech conference, where the focus quickly shifts to edge AI and why on-device intelligence matters more as models get more sophisticated. From there, the conversation opens up into mobile hardware and the design limits that shape real products, especially battery life, thickness, and portability. Rather than treating phones like press-release objects, the episode keeps returning to how people actually use them and what they are willing to carry day to day. The battery pack comes up as a kind of safety net, modular and useful when needed, with a sleeker and thinner design than before. The conversation also points to a broader frustration: Apple, Google, and Samsung have not adopted silicon-carbon batteries in their flagship phones the way many Chinese manufacturers have in mid-range devices. That leads into a wider hardware-first critique of how slowly some companies move on battery innovation. The episode also touches on Apple’s modem work, with mention of the C1 modem in the 16e and the expectation that future chips will be strong. Carolina Milanesi’s appearance helps round out the discussion with a consumer and industry lens, keeping the focus on how product choices land in the real world. The result is an informed, opinionated hardware conversation that connects semiconductors, batteries, accessories, and everyday phone use without feeling like a spec sheet readout. It is less about celebrating one launch and more about weighing the practical tradeoffs that define the current mobile market.
