WEBVTT - iPhone 11 Rumors and Note 10 Review 0:00:04.880 --> 0:00:09.200 New iPhone rumors, a note ten review, well mine, Gmail 0:00:09.240 --> 0:00:12.760 does grammar check, and Roku makes it easier for parents 0:00:12.800 --> 0:00:15.840 to find stuff for their kids to watch. What's going on. 0:00:15.880 --> 0:00:18.920 I'm Rich Temiro. This is Rich on Tech, the podcast 0:00:18.960 --> 0:00:20.959 where I talk about the tech stuff I think you 0:00:21.000 --> 0:00:23.200 should know about, and it's also the place where I 0:00:23.360 --> 0:00:26.119 answer the questions that you send me, all with the 0:00:26.160 --> 0:00:28.960 help of producer Megan. Welcome to the show. How are 0:00:29.000 --> 0:00:29.360 you doing? 0:00:29.600 --> 0:00:31.000 I'm doing well. How are you? 0:00:31.400 --> 0:00:35.160 My day is not going so well, I know, and 0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:37.800 oh my gosh, this has not really happened to me 0:00:37.840 --> 0:00:39.800 in a long time. My computer I was working this 0:00:39.840 --> 0:00:43.760 morning writing a script and my computer all of a 0:00:43.760 --> 0:00:45.839 sudden I was in a Google doc and it just 0:00:45.960 --> 0:00:48.239 kept like crashing that web page and I was like, 0:00:48.280 --> 0:00:51.519 that's weird. Then all of a sudden, my whole computer crashes. 0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:54.880 That's weird. Then I go to log into my computer 0:00:55.440 --> 0:00:58.920 and my password doesn't work. So immediately I'm thinking, oh, no, 0:00:59.200 --> 0:01:03.560 this is it. It's over. Yeah, and I restart my 0:01:03.600 --> 0:01:06.560 computer and then I get this little file folder with 0:01:06.600 --> 0:01:09.640 a question mark which that do we even know what 0:01:09.680 --> 0:01:10.880 that means? But it can't be good. 0:01:11.080 --> 0:01:13.200 No, it does not look good. It does not look good. 0:01:13.200 --> 0:01:15.959 It doesn't look computer what. It's horrible. 0:01:16.080 --> 0:01:17.920 That's it. It's just so I've restarted a couple of 0:01:17.959 --> 0:01:20.319 times and I'm going to do some more. I assume 0:01:20.360 --> 0:01:23.280 the hard drive is fried. And when you have yeah, 0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:26.560 I think so. I think it crashed. Why you don't know, 0:01:26.600 --> 0:01:28.520 It's just like it just hit a little sector in 0:01:28.560 --> 0:01:30.600 that drive. That's just like popped the whole thing to 0:01:31.080 --> 0:01:34.000 you know, oblivion. So we'll see from. 0:01:33.880 --> 0:01:36.440 Throwing your laptop on the ground. Probably when you write 0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:36.959 your books. 0:01:37.000 --> 0:01:39.280 When I step on it, Oh, good thing, the book is. 0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:42.679 Everything's in the cloud. Except I will tell you this. 0:01:42.760 --> 0:01:46.240 I am kind of sad. I've recently reforded, my reformatted 0:01:46.280 --> 0:01:48.800 my kid's iPad Parkers, and so I took all of 0:01:48.840 --> 0:01:51.120 his pictures off his iPad that he's been taking on his iPad, 0:01:51.160 --> 0:01:52.800 and I put him on my desktop and I was 0:01:52.800 --> 0:01:55.360 going to upload him back to his iPad or to 0:01:55.440 --> 0:01:58.320 Google Photos, but I have not done that yet. So 0:01:58.600 --> 0:02:00.720 if I do lose anything, that's I'll lose, which is 0:02:00.760 --> 0:02:05.200 kind of sad. His memory, it's his memory, So yeah, 0:02:05.200 --> 0:02:05.880 it is kind of sad. 0:02:05.960 --> 0:02:08.359 Okay, Well, hopefully that well say. 0:02:08.560 --> 0:02:11.720 I'm being optimistic. We'll see, we'll see if I can 0:02:11.760 --> 0:02:14.240 save some of that stuff. But let's talk some tech. 0:02:14.760 --> 0:02:15.919 What do we want to start with? Do you want 0:02:15.919 --> 0:02:16.840 to do? What do you want me to start? Do 0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:18.400 you want me to start with the iPhone rumors? Or 0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:20.600 do you want me to start with my thoughts after 0:02:20.720 --> 0:02:22.000 using the Note ten for a week? 0:02:22.280 --> 0:02:23.840 Honestly, iPhone rumor Oh. 0:02:23.720 --> 0:02:25.519 Okay, I knew you'd say that, So let's start with 0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:27.840 the iPhone rumors. This does not come for me. This 0:02:27.919 --> 0:02:32.480 comes from Bloomberg Mark German. He is the expert on 0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:35.000 all things Apple. He has got some sort of mole 0:02:35.200 --> 0:02:38.480 inside the Apple organization that just gives him all this information. 0:02:39.280 --> 0:02:42.400 Here's what we're talking about in the next from the 0:02:42.440 --> 0:02:46.000 next Apple event, which is supposedly going to happen on 0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:49.520 September tenth. That is not official, but that's kind of 0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:52.880 the date that everyone sort of agrees on because they've 0:02:52.880 --> 0:02:55.520 looked at the previous dates and the previous they don't 0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:57.639 want to do it on a September eleventh because that's 0:02:57.720 --> 0:02:59.280 kind of a weird date to do a big event on, 0:02:59.360 --> 0:03:02.480 although I think on year they did oh weird, and 0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:05.160 they don't want to do it on a Monday, although 0:03:05.160 --> 0:03:08.960 sometimes they do so. Anyway, long story short, the prediction 0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:12.040 is Tuesday, September tenth for the big Apple event. 0:03:12.160 --> 0:03:14.239 Is there a lot of mystery just because they want 0:03:14.280 --> 0:03:15.880 everyone to be on their toes. 0:03:16.480 --> 0:03:18.760 Apple never tells you until two weeks before, got it, 0:03:18.840 --> 0:03:21.440 and they send you the invitation and then everyone emails. 0:03:21.480 --> 0:03:23.239 So this is what happens. You get the invitation in 0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:26.000 your email and then every journalist tweets out a picture 0:03:26.000 --> 0:03:28.040 of the invitation, which has a little clue as to 0:03:28.080 --> 0:03:30.799 what you might see. Anyway, it's a whole big game 0:03:30.840 --> 0:03:32.920 with Apple, and I don't know how much longer it 0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:34.080 can go on, but it goes on. 0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:35.200 It's still very exciting. 0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:38.320 So three new iPhones. According to Bloomberg, they're gonna be 0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:41.120 called the iPhone Pro at least the upper models. Then 0:03:41.120 --> 0:03:43.120 there's going to be a successor to the iPhone ten are. 0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:46.280 The big new feature is a new camera system on 0:03:46.320 --> 0:03:49.600 the back with a third camera, and it's going to 0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:53.840 take wide angle pictures, ultra wide, and regular all at 0:03:53.840 --> 0:03:55.920 the same time. So when you snap a picture, it's 0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:59.880 theoretically snapping three pictures, which helps you go back and 0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:03.680 and recrop a picture. I think that will be useful sometimes. 0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:06.080 I don't know if that's like always useful. But we've 0:04:06.080 --> 0:04:07.760 talked about this before, and so I remember we talked 0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:09.840 about like the wine glass being like right outside the 0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:11.320 picture and you wanted to recrop. 0:04:11.000 --> 0:04:14.320 It or something. Yes, with your pictures, all my. 0:04:14.320 --> 0:04:17.200 Pictures, low light photos are going to improve as well. 0:04:17.240 --> 0:04:20.560 Now you're a big iPhone fan, so is the low 0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:22.160 light thing like a big deal? Like you notice that 0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:24.400 when you take like pictures in the club or whatever. 0:04:25.760 --> 0:04:27.400 No, I don't notice this at all. 0:04:27.520 --> 0:04:31.000 Wait, what that low light pictures on the iPhone are 0:04:31.040 --> 0:04:32.840 just not very good? Yeah, Like they're pretty terri I 0:04:32.880 --> 0:04:34.960 don't take pictures, I know. I was just kidding about that. 0:04:35.080 --> 0:04:36.800 Usually clubs have photo booths, so I. 0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:40.760 Just okay, just take them there. So let's see what else. 0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:44.120 Significantly upgraded video recording capabilities. Already the iPhone has an 0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:46.760 amazing video camera on it, so I guess it's just 0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:47.400 going to get better. 0:04:47.480 --> 0:04:48.400 Yeah. 0:04:48.440 --> 0:04:51.679 They're also adding the reverse wireless charging, which we've already 0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:53.760 seen on the Samsungs, where you can put the wireless 0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:55.360 device on the back of the phone and charge it 0:04:56.120 --> 0:04:58.680 like another device. That's cool. The phones are going to 0:04:58.760 --> 0:05:00.839 look very similar to what they look like right now, 0:05:00.839 --> 0:05:03.960 except with the different cameras. The face ID is getting 0:05:03.960 --> 0:05:06.200 an improvement, so it would be multi angle. And this 0:05:06.240 --> 0:05:07.960 is something that's actually pretty interesting. When you have your 0:05:08.000 --> 0:05:10.120 phone on your desk, you have to like lift it 0:05:10.200 --> 0:05:11.880 up to unlock it. You don't have face ID, so 0:05:11.880 --> 0:05:15.080 you don't have that problem. I'm stuck when you upgrade 0:05:15.720 --> 0:05:18.600 and then let's see what else. And the iPhone ten are, 0:05:18.960 --> 0:05:21.360 which I usually recommend, is like the phone to get 0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:23.800 for ninety nine percent of people that's going to get 0:05:23.839 --> 0:05:25.359 a second camera on the back so you can do 0:05:25.400 --> 0:05:28.400 the zoom, you know, the optical zoom. And none of 0:05:28.400 --> 0:05:31.359 the phones will include five G. So there you have it, 0:05:31.440 --> 0:05:34.760 in a nutshell exciting. It's exciting, and they will sell 0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:36.920 a lot of them, but it is getting less exciting 0:05:37.000 --> 0:05:39.920 as the years go on. Because these phones are lasting 0:05:39.960 --> 0:05:42.400 for three years. People are not necessarily upgrading. I remember 0:05:42.400 --> 0:05:45.000 when when back in the day, when the iPhone come out, 0:05:45.000 --> 0:05:47.919 there's always a great, cool, amazing new feature on it. 0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:50.320 Now it seems like we're seeing a lot of the 0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:52.840 features on the Samsung devices before Apple, So it kind 0:05:52.839 --> 0:05:54.200 of takes a little bit of the wind out of 0:05:54.200 --> 0:05:57.720 their sales. But the Apple people don't care because they're 0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:00.000 not using Samsung. So to them, it's new when they 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:02.360 get a wide angle lens. It's brand new, right, even 0:06:02.400 --> 0:06:04.760 though I've been testing it on Samsungs for a year now. 0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:07.440 It's it's funny too, because the changes used to be 0:06:07.560 --> 0:06:10.359 so big, Like it was like, you know, a little 0:06:10.360 --> 0:06:12.679 bit bigger of a phone, but like it was lighter, 0:06:12.720 --> 0:06:13.400 and like now. 0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:16.520 It's just the print sensor, then a face ID. Now 0:06:16.560 --> 0:06:17.839 it's just like it's an iteration. 0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:20.279 How's that? Yeah? 0:06:20.360 --> 0:06:24.640 Okay, So starting off with the first question from Corone 0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:27.160 who writes in on your Facebook page, which is Facebook 0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:31.640 dot com slash rich on tech Corona Rights, do you 0:06:31.680 --> 0:06:34.919 have a few online sites you would recommend for writing 0:06:35.040 --> 0:06:38.680 and publishing my own books? I have multiple writings I've 0:06:38.680 --> 0:06:41.560 been working on over the past twenty years, and I 0:06:41.600 --> 0:06:44.039 finally have the courage to move forward and try to 0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:45.000 publish them. 0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:49.159 Good question. Let's see, so I wrote a book, so 0:06:49.240 --> 0:06:52.160 this is a perfect question for me, and I used 0:06:52.160 --> 0:06:54.320 a lot of different websites and I'm just bringing them 0:06:54.400 --> 0:06:56.480 up in my computer right now. So the first one, 0:06:56.880 --> 0:06:58.719 this is the blog that I really used. I looked 0:06:58.720 --> 0:07:01.520 at a lot and there's a lot of websites about 0:07:01.560 --> 0:07:04.279 writing books. I mean there's a million blogs, and generally 0:07:04.360 --> 0:07:06.200 what people do is they just search. Like when I 0:07:06.240 --> 0:07:08.160 was writing my book, I just search like the answers 0:07:08.200 --> 0:07:09.560 to what I needed at that time, like how to 0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:12.320 market my book and how to do this, how to 0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:13.880 do that, how to publish, how to print, how to 0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:16.720 you know, make a cover, how to do keywords on Amazon. 0:07:16.920 --> 0:07:18.560 But the one that I kept coming back to was 0:07:18.640 --> 0:07:24.280 Kindle Kindle preneur, I guess like entrepreneur except Kindle. Okay, 0:07:24.680 --> 0:07:27.400 so this is a great website. K I N d 0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:31.040 L E p r E n eu are Kindle preneur. 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:33.400 I don't know how you say that. That's it. But 0:07:33.480 --> 0:07:37.480 this guy named Dave is let's see, what's his name, 0:07:37.560 --> 0:07:40.920 Dave Chessin. That's a great website and it taught me 0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:43.240 a lot. He does it. It's very simple. Everything is 0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:45.000 very easy. But that's kind of like the number one 0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:48.080 website just kind of look at every day. The website 0:07:48.080 --> 0:07:50.360 that I used to actually create my book is called 0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:53.560 press Books, and they let you it's kind of like 0:07:53.600 --> 0:07:57.560 word Press, but for writing books. Very simple. Now I 0:07:57.640 --> 0:08:00.960 say simple, it's simple at its heart. Formatting a book 0:08:01.000 --> 0:08:03.280 for print is not very easy and it takes a 0:08:03.280 --> 0:08:05.680 lot of trial and error. But this website is the 0:08:05.720 --> 0:08:07.480 best that I found. There's a lot of other software 0:08:07.480 --> 0:08:09.440 that can do it, but press books. To me, it's 0:08:09.440 --> 0:08:12.800 a little bit more expensive, but it really is nice. 0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:15.480 And by expensive I mean you don't have to pay 0:08:15.520 --> 0:08:18.640 until you actually publish it. You can do the whole 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:20.840 thing for free. So if you write your whole book 0:08:20.880 --> 0:08:23.160 and you decide, eh, this is not very good, you 0:08:23.240 --> 0:08:24.760 just don't use it. You don't have to pay. But 0:08:24.800 --> 0:08:26.920 once you do decide to actually export it in a 0:08:26.960 --> 0:08:29.320 format that can go to the Kindle or go to 0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:33.120 hardcover publishing or paperback publishing, you do have to pay. 0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:35.040 That's a great website. And then the other one, obviously 0:08:35.120 --> 0:08:39.200 is Kindled Direct Publishing. This is Amazon's way that you 0:08:39.240 --> 0:08:41.959 can get your book in on the Kindle or as 0:08:42.000 --> 0:08:45.599 a paperback in the Amazon Store, and it works fantastically. 0:08:45.720 --> 0:08:47.559 And that's what you used for your last book. 0:08:47.440 --> 0:08:48.760 That's what I used for my book one hundred and 0:08:48.760 --> 0:08:50.720 one Handi Tech Tips for the iPhone. I published it 0:08:50.760 --> 0:08:54.600 all by myself, no external help, and it was great. 0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:57.800 It did really well. It was it exceeded my expectations. 0:08:58.080 --> 0:09:00.920 And of course, now you know, I'm writing the next book, Yes, 0:09:00.960 --> 0:09:02.880 one hundred and one Handy Ticktips of the iPhone. I 0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:04.920 was thinking of some new titles, so I'll tell you 0:09:04.920 --> 0:09:08.560 some of the titles. So I was thinking iPhone, what 0:09:08.640 --> 0:09:10.840 was it? Unlocked the iPhone? 0:09:10.840 --> 0:09:12.600 I was thinking, okay, I like that. 0:09:13.000 --> 0:09:14.679 Then the other one was just handy tech tips for 0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:17.800 the iPhone. Drop the one on one because it's a mouthful. 0:09:18.960 --> 0:09:19.720 Let's see what else. 0:09:19.960 --> 0:09:22.720 I thought you had one oh one iPhone. 0:09:22.960 --> 0:09:25.280 Something oh iPhone one on one. I was thinking, yeah, 0:09:25.320 --> 0:09:26.840 So anyway, those are some of the things. 0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:27.320 Exciting. 0:09:27.480 --> 0:09:30.800 Yeah, it's exciting when I don't. 0:09:30.640 --> 0:09:34.800 Know I have right now, I've written sixty something tips 0:09:34.840 --> 0:09:37.600 those last forty that I'm kind of not struggling with. 0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:40.040 But it's definitely like, okay, this is this takes some 0:09:40.120 --> 0:09:42.080 effort because don't forget, I put a lot of the 0:09:42.120 --> 0:09:44.400 best tips in the first two books, so I need 0:09:44.400 --> 0:09:46.000 to decide if I'm gonna include some of those in 0:09:46.040 --> 0:09:48.280 the next book. Yeah, make it kind of like a 0:09:48.280 --> 0:09:50.160 one stop shop, or if I have to make it 0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:51.640 like new tips, And then you have to go back 0:09:51.679 --> 0:09:53.040 to the old book for the old tips. I don't know. 0:09:53.080 --> 0:09:55.120 I'm still still kind of figuring that out. 0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:56.160 Yeah, it's excited. 0:09:56.200 --> 0:09:59.120 All right, Well let's talk about the Note ten. You know, 0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:01.600 I've been using this for the past week or so, 0:10:02.360 --> 0:10:06.920 and it is a really nice phone. It's a really 0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:09.160 I think the way I would sum up this review 0:10:09.360 --> 0:10:12.440 is big. This phone is big in every way, like 0:10:12.480 --> 0:10:17.440 the features, the size. It is a really nice phone. 0:10:17.480 --> 0:10:20.720 It's not a phone that I personally will use. I 0:10:20.840 --> 0:10:22.319 used it for the week and that was kind of 0:10:22.480 --> 0:10:25.000 enough for me. And that's not to say this is 0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:27.640 a bad phone. I think that it's a very nice phone. 0:10:27.720 --> 0:10:29.840 I just don't know if it's for everyone. 0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:30.400 Yeah. 0:10:30.440 --> 0:10:32.679 In fact, I think that ninety nine point nine percent 0:10:32.679 --> 0:10:36.760 of people will be better served with the Samsung Galaxy 0:10:36.840 --> 0:10:39.679 S ten plus if they're thinking about this phone. The 0:10:39.720 --> 0:10:42.080 only reason really to get this device is if you 0:10:42.120 --> 0:10:44.360 want the stylus. And if you have no use for 0:10:44.400 --> 0:10:47.199 a stylus, why are you getting this. That's kind of 0:10:47.240 --> 0:10:50.320 my thesis. The cameras are nearly identical. I can't see 0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:55.439 any improvement in the cameras over previous Samsung devices. In fact, 0:10:56.080 --> 0:10:59.080 I'm actually kind of kind of mad at Samsung because 0:10:59.440 --> 0:11:02.120 the cameras used to get so much better with each Samsung, 0:11:02.280 --> 0:11:03.760 and now I feel like they've gotten to this point 0:11:03.760 --> 0:11:06.600 where they're not very good. Whereas the iPhone, when we 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:10.960 went from even iPhone ten to iPhone ten s, the 0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:16.199 camera's significantly improved. I'm talking really improved, and with the 0:11:16.640 --> 0:11:18.719 Note ten plus, I don't see that improvement, which kind 0:11:18.720 --> 0:11:21.840 of makes me sad. Yeah, the other things to know 0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:24.679 about this phone is that it is big. Did I 0:11:24.720 --> 0:11:28.920 say that it's big. It's big and using the spen. 0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:30.760 So the main things that they're trying to sell in 0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:32.440 this new phone is that it has a lot of 0:11:32.440 --> 0:11:36.720 features for video and audio, and I think that's great, 0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:40.199 But is it really going to become the creator's device 0:11:40.280 --> 0:11:42.200 of choice. I don't know. I still think that the 0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:44.840 iPhone's easier to use when it comes to video and audio. 0:11:45.160 --> 0:11:47.280 I still think the camera is a little bit slower 0:11:47.320 --> 0:11:49.200 on the Note than it is on other phones that 0:11:49.240 --> 0:11:51.920 I test, which kind of annoys me. Again because this 0:11:52.040 --> 0:11:54.800 is Samsung. I do think that Samsung did their homework 0:11:54.840 --> 0:11:57.480 and stuff like the live focus video is really cool, 0:11:57.480 --> 0:11:59.559 but how often are you going to use that, probably 0:11:59.600 --> 0:12:01.160 not very long. Often that's the video gives you the 0:12:01.160 --> 0:12:04.920 blurry background. This whole thing about the depth vision camera 0:12:04.960 --> 0:12:07.319 which lets you three D map things. Remember, on the 0:12:07.320 --> 0:12:09.360 stage they showed I don't know if you watched the presentation, 0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:12.200 but they showed like them three D scanning a little okay, 0:12:12.480 --> 0:12:14.800 stuffed animal. Who's really going to do that after the 0:12:14.800 --> 0:12:16.800 first time you ever do that? No one, No one's 0:12:16.840 --> 0:12:20.040 three D scanning their stuff. Super Steady's really cool, we 0:12:20.080 --> 0:12:22.520 had that before. Screen recorder's cool, but you can download 0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:25.280 an app to get that. The video editor is cool 0:12:25.679 --> 0:12:28.360 and it's great for like very small use cases. But 0:12:28.440 --> 0:12:32.600 if you're actually going to create videos for social media 0:12:32.640 --> 0:12:35.240 and the web, you're probably going to download an app 0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:38.439 like Adobe Rush to do that. And so their video 0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:40.760 editing that they put on there is really cool, but 0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:43.560 it's very basic. It's very simple, and I think that 0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:46.240 most people who are making videos for a living or 0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:49.040 for social media will be better served with Adobe's program, 0:12:49.040 --> 0:12:51.559 which by the way, costs ten dollars a month, but 0:12:51.600 --> 0:12:53.800 it's on there. But if you have a Samsung Galaxy No, 0:12:53.920 --> 0:12:55.440 you can get it for eight dollars a month for 0:12:55.880 --> 0:12:59.559 a year. Oh which is kind of nice. Wow, ar doodle, 0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:02.320 you're never going to use after the first time, you 0:13:02.320 --> 0:13:04.400 know where you saw me with a little cowboy hat 0:13:04.440 --> 0:13:06.520 on you like you can kind of draw in three 0:13:06.640 --> 0:13:09.120 D on someone's video. How often are you gonna use that? 0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:09.319 Like? 0:13:09.360 --> 0:13:09.960 Almost never? 0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:11.640 Don't they have that on Snapchat now? 0:13:11.840 --> 0:13:14.200 I don't know. Maybe don't know what the kids are 0:13:14.240 --> 0:13:16.559 doing on Snapchat And the rest of the stuff. All 0:13:16.600 --> 0:13:19.160 the integration with your computer, I think is really handy 0:13:19.240 --> 0:13:23.760 if you are on a Windows computer Windows PC, I 0:13:23.760 --> 0:13:25.800 think that stuff is pretty cool. But at this point, 0:13:26.320 --> 0:13:28.800 a lot of these things, you know, it's just it's 0:13:28.840 --> 0:13:32.400 a lot, and it's a good phone. It's an expensive phone. 0:13:32.440 --> 0:13:35.400 The screen is beautiful. I find that it's very big. 0:13:35.679 --> 0:13:37.520 Even after a week of use, it was kind of 0:13:37.600 --> 0:13:39.600 tough to get used to. A couple of things that 0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:42.960 really annoy me are the power button is moved to 0:13:43.000 --> 0:13:44.719 the left side of the phone instead of the right, 0:13:44.760 --> 0:13:48.080 where it's much easier to get with your thumb. So 0:13:48.120 --> 0:13:50.360 I found myself like having to go reach over kind 0:13:50.400 --> 0:13:52.079 of get this thing activated, which I didn't like. 0:13:52.120 --> 0:13:52.959 Why would they move it? 0:13:53.040 --> 0:13:55.280 I don't know. The fingerprint sensor, I don't think is 0:13:55.360 --> 0:13:57.800 very good, although they did put out a software update 0:13:57.800 --> 0:14:02.040 that sort of improved it. Batteries amazing, camera is okay. 0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:05.520 I still think the iPhone takes better pictures in certain circumstances. 0:14:05.559 --> 0:14:08.840 I think that in bright circumstances, especially with like scenery 0:14:08.880 --> 0:14:12.240 and stuff, the Samsung does a better job. With people, 0:14:12.320 --> 0:14:14.680 I think that the iPhone does a better job. It 0:14:14.760 --> 0:14:15.720 just captures them better. 0:14:15.760 --> 0:14:17.760 Interesting, and that's kind of it. 0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:21.920 Any other questions you have, well, didn't you didn't it 0:14:21.960 --> 0:14:24.040 inspire you to buy a different phone? 0:14:24.120 --> 0:14:25.120 Or do you not want to talk about? 0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:27.520 Oh my god, you really put me out there. Yes, 0:14:27.600 --> 0:14:31.840 yesterday I bought a Pixel three XCEL because I had 0:14:31.880 --> 0:14:34.520 my hopes set on the Note ten and I thought 0:14:34.520 --> 0:14:36.320 that was going to kind of be my phone to use. 0:14:36.480 --> 0:14:38.680 And I realized that I don't. I'm not a big 0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:42.480 fan of the heavy handed approach to software that Samsung 0:14:42.560 --> 0:14:45.800 puts on their devices, and I just realized that I 0:14:45.880 --> 0:14:49.120 kind of like love the way Google's phones are pure. Yeah, 0:14:49.160 --> 0:14:50.760 and I kind of said this with the one Plus. 0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:52.360 I just love the way it's very pure. But the 0:14:52.360 --> 0:14:54.040 one Plus camera is not as good as the Pixel. 0:14:54.120 --> 0:14:57.400 So I did buy the Pixel yesterday. Same day shipping 0:14:57.440 --> 0:14:59.240 on Amazon. I bought it in the morning and I 0:14:59.240 --> 0:15:02.200 got it by like six o'clock last night. I did 0:15:02.240 --> 0:15:05.960 not tell Lindsay that I purchased this, so why, uh well, 0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:08.240 it was a couple hundred bucks. So I just figured, 0:15:08.360 --> 0:15:08.920 how do you like it? 0:15:08.920 --> 0:15:09.200 So far? 0:15:09.320 --> 0:15:11.120 I love it. I'm the camera is just so good. 0:15:11.280 --> 0:15:13.520 So I just love the camera. It's not it's it's 0:15:13.520 --> 0:15:15.600 a stop gap until I get the pixel four probably 0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:18.080 right right, okay, But and I still have my iPhone, 0:15:18.080 --> 0:15:20.040 so I still have that, So I you know, I used, 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:22.400 I used the best of all these worlds, you know, 0:15:22.440 --> 0:15:24.760 but I realized that I kind of missed the pixel camera. 0:15:26.520 --> 0:15:32.120 Okay, So this next question comes from your email, which 0:15:32.160 --> 0:15:34.520 is by the way, Rich on tech dot Tv. You 0:15:34.600 --> 0:15:37.160 just go to his website and you can find a 0:15:37.200 --> 0:15:40.920 place to contact Rich and send in your question. This 0:15:41.000 --> 0:15:43.200 is from Pam. I think you had talked about a 0:15:43.280 --> 0:15:46.520 find my Watch feature that you could launch from your iPhone. 0:15:46.560 --> 0:15:49.120 Am I dreaming. I've looked in your book, but I 0:15:49.160 --> 0:15:51.160 think you talked about it in the last few months. 0:15:52.480 --> 0:15:55.080 So there's a couple of things going on here. Find 0:15:55.480 --> 0:15:59.040 Number one, you have an app on your iPhone called 0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:01.840 find my iPhone or it's find my phone. I think 0:16:02.240 --> 0:16:04.480 now it's being changed to what's called find my Do 0:16:04.480 --> 0:16:06.120 you remember there's two apps on your phone. There's find 0:16:06.160 --> 0:16:08.400 my iPhone or find my phone, and then there's find 0:16:08.400 --> 0:16:12.640 my Friends. Yeah, those are being merged in iOS thirteen. Okay, 0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:14.960 it's becoming one app. So you open which makes sense. 0:16:14.960 --> 0:16:16.600 You'll see your friends and you'll see. 0:16:16.520 --> 0:16:18.960 Your devices devices. But it's two tabs at the bottom 0:16:18.960 --> 0:16:20.880 of the page. So you click one for your friends, 0:16:20.880 --> 0:16:22.320 you see them on a little map. You click one 0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:24.120 for your devices. Makes sense. You go to one place 0:16:24.120 --> 0:16:27.160 to find everything. Now you will see your Apple Watch 0:16:27.240 --> 0:16:29.760 on there if you're in a Wi Fi area and 0:16:29.760 --> 0:16:31.480 your Apple Watch is on, or it'll show you the 0:16:31.560 --> 0:16:34.360 last known location of your device. If you have a 0:16:34.400 --> 0:16:37.080 cellular watch, obviously it can show you where it is 0:16:37.200 --> 0:16:39.040 if it's somewhere you know, if you lost it in 0:16:39.080 --> 0:16:41.400 the woods somewhere, it'll show you where it is. But 0:16:42.840 --> 0:16:44.360 the thing you need to know about this is a 0:16:44.480 --> 0:16:46.440 you have to activate it when you set up your device, 0:16:46.520 --> 0:16:49.000 like say find my So I always recommend people open 0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:51.040 up to find my Phone app and just make sure 0:16:51.080 --> 0:16:53.080 all your devices are sort of on there before you 0:16:53.120 --> 0:16:55.640 lose them, because once you lose them, you can't do 0:16:55.680 --> 0:16:58.680 anything about it. So just make sure if you have 0:16:58.720 --> 0:17:01.480 an iPhone and an iPad, a MacBook, and an Apple Watch, 0:17:01.960 --> 0:17:04.919 go open up the Find my iPhone app and just 0:17:05.080 --> 0:17:07.399 make sure that those are listed there and there's not 0:17:07.400 --> 0:17:09.320 any problems if you don't see one of them. Set 0:17:09.320 --> 0:17:13.080 it up now. I think she's also confusing the feature 0:17:13.560 --> 0:17:15.720 that's on your Apple Watch that allows you to find 0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:18.679 your iPhone. There's a pang feature, so if you swipe 0:17:18.800 --> 0:17:21.280 up from the bottom of your Apple Watch, you can 0:17:21.359 --> 0:17:23.680 find it looks like a little iPhone with two little 0:17:23.760 --> 0:17:26.920 kind of pings coming out of it, like a wave 0:17:27.000 --> 0:17:29.199 being omitted out of it. You press that and it 0:17:29.240 --> 0:17:31.280 will ping your iPhone and make a sound on your 0:17:31.320 --> 0:17:32.960
