what's going on Brian Tong here with your Google Isha's for everything Google that we can pack inside of a show let's jump into it this week and Google is standing by Chrome OS and they made sure there was no confusion with a new blog post after a Wall Street Journal report last week claimed that Google was planning to merge Android with Chrome OS and completely phase out Chrome OS it also claimed that Chromebooks as they are known right now would get a new name to match the new OS well none of that is happening Google made it clear they've been working to bring the best out of both operating systems and there are no plans to phase out Chrome OS at all and a more Google News the tech giant announced the official date for project wing it's their initiative to deliver goods to consumers via drones by sometime in 2017 the project was initially run inside Google X they're secretive project Research Lab but is now believed to be under the control of the larger company alphabet now their earlier work had them testing drones in Australia with custom-designed drones that can hover and winch down packages for delivery competition is fierce in this space with Amazon and Alibaba working on drone deliveries themselves now Amazon says it's octocopter z' can send 2.3 kilograms of goods within 30 minutes of an order being placed in Alibaba ran a three-day trial of drone deliveries around its offices in Asia earlier this year all right the Nexus 6p has been in consumers hands for the past couple of weeks and like every phone it's also going through its own torture tests YouTube user Jerry rigged everything does everything from scratching it to burning it because that happens all the time and then proceeds to bend it with his bare hands we haven't seen an overflow of Nexus 6p phones being bent from sitting on them but there's a point where these torture tests become just a bunch of eye candy more than anything else so what about a phone that could actually survive one of these tests and live to tell about it well Motorola is claiming their new Droid turbo 2 has the world's first shatterproof display for a smartphone and their claims look pretty legit now on this video by techrax he drops the phone in survives but then takes a hammer to the screen not once or twice but multiple times until it shuts off the screen never shatters it has indentations and marks on it but it never shatters that's pretty sweet and a good sign for the future but I'm not buying a phone just because it won't shatter and I know many of you are in the same boat okay oneplus revealed their second phone of the year with the oneplus X you know the phone CEO Carl Pei hyped up as the best oneplus phone almost immediately after the oneplus 2 was announced but the reality is that it's a smaller sized phone at a 5.5 inch screen and an even cheaper unlocked handset at that with expandable storage for a 249 price tag now it also takes design cues from the Apple iPhone 4 with glass panels on the front and back and that metal trim that we know and for those holdouts our longtime fans of BlackBerry's the new blackberry Prive which is the first BlackBerry handset powered by Android will be available on AT&T in the US on November the 6th this includes its sweet looking smart slide keyboard and it's a potential turning point for blackberry if this design resonates with enough of its users now an unlocked version will also be sold by blackberry and is only compatible with GSM networks all right that's gonna do it for this week's show you can email us at Google issues at cnn.com or tweet me at Brian Tom thanks for watching we'll see you guys next time for some more of that Google issues Google ishes
