Motorola builds a shatterproof smartphone and we put it to the test. Samsung builds a tablet the size of a TV and we look on with concern. And Nintendo finally makes the jump to your smartphone screen ... and we get all nostalgic for Tetris and Toobin'. All this, plus some learning about the 600 MHz spectrum and an eyes-on session with your listener mail, on episode 172 of the Pocketnow Weekly!

We've got the new Droids clutched firmly in hand, and we've carved out some space between drop tests to answer questions about them. If you're watching the show live, use the Q&A feature built into Google Hangouts to hit us with all the questions you can muster concerning the Droid Turbo 2 (aka Moto X Force) and Droid Maxx 2 (aka Moto X Play) and we'll do our best to answer them!
Followup: Our HTC One A9 review is finally official, and we'll take questions on that as well.
Bonus: let's bug Todd into showing us that Samsung super-tablet!
