So thank you. 43 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 2: That is not lost to me. 44 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about apple big announcement this week. 45 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: I call this the super Bowl of Tech because basically, 46 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: anyone who's everyone, everyone who's anyone in the tech world 47 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 1: makes their way up to Coopertino, myself included, to see 48 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: what this is all about. So we're talking a bunch 49 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: of creators, media influencers. They all want to be there, 50 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: and Apple invites a large swath of folks. It is 51 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: a select group, but if you don't know how these 52 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: things work, they basically send an invitation out to their 53 00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 1: event about two weeks before it happens, and people just scramble, 54 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: you know. They book their hotel room, they book their flights. 55 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: They want to be there. If you're invited to this, 56 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: I would be curious how many people say no to 57 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: going to the Apple event, because just to experience it 58 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: is pretty neat, and I've been to a lot of events. 59 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 2: Apple does the best. I mean, they really really do. 60 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: There's a little breakfast before you kind of mingle with people. 61 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: People line up to be first to get to the keynote. 62 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: Then there's a keynote in what's called the Steve Jobs Theater, 63 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: and then after the keynote, there is a hands on area. 64 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 1: Now these have changed a little bit because of COVID. 65 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: Before everything was live. So if you look back at 66 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: the old days of iPhone announcements, any Apple announcement, everything 67 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: was demoed live on stage. That does not happen anymore. 68 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: Now Tim Cook comes out, he welcomes everyone, and then 69 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: they roll the videotape and it's this slickly produced production 70 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: that you can watch on YouTube live. But if you're 71 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: in person, you're basically watching it on a giant screen, 72 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 1: but you know with all the other people, you're experiencing 73 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: it live. But the benefit of being there in person 74 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: versus YouTube is that after the keynote is over, there's 75 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: a hands on area, and so you go in that 76 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: hands on area and that's when you get to see 77 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: your first glimpse at these new devices. 78 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 2: And they're all there. 79 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: They've got a bunch of Apple people working there to 80 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: kind of help you and understand what's new, what's different. 81 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: And it is a scramble, I mean, you know, these 82 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 1: folks are just trying to post, you know, theirs stuff, instantly, 83 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: trying to shoot all the different angles. Everyone's trying to 84 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 1: be creative and the name of the game is just 85 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 1: to get your video out first so that you can 86 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,720 Speaker 1: capture those early views. And then after all of that, 87 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: there's a bunch of breakout sessions. So if you are 88 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: invited to these things, you get to kind of talk 89 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: to the people that really work on these products very intimately, 90 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 1: like the people that make the iPhone all the different things, 91 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: and so you get to talk to them and really 92 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: understand sort of whatever's behind the headlines. 93 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 2: So it's really really fun. 94 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: I've been going to them for fifteen years now, and 95 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: every single time Apple does this a little bit more, 96 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 1: and it's they open up themselves just a little bit 97 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: more to sort of letting us inside the whole world 98 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: of Apple. 99 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 2: Every year it's a little bit more anyway. So what 100 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 2: do we have this year? 101 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 3: All right? 102 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 2: We've got three main. 103 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 1: Models, iPhone seventeen, the iPhone Air that's the new one, 104 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 1: and the iPhone seventeen Pro, and that of course comes 105 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: in two sizes, the Pro and the Pro Max. So 106 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: if you want to think about it another way, there 107 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: is no Plus model this year. The Air is replacing 108 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 1: the Plus model, So the iPhone seventeen comes in one size. 109 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: The iPhone Air comes in one size. iPhone seventeen is 110 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 1: about I think it's a I got to look at 111 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: the I'm. 112 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 2: Gonna get through there. 113 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: Hold on six point three inch screen, that's right, and 114 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: then iPhone Air is a six point five inch screen. 115 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 1: Then the iPhone seventeen Pro has two screen sizes six 116 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 1: point three and six point nine. So if you want 117 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 1: the largest phones, you got to go with the Air 118 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 1: or the Pro Max. Let's talk about the Air first, 119 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 1: since this is Apple's brand new model, Apple's thinnest phone ever, 120 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: just five point six millimeters thin. Yes, it is super thin. 121 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: It's got a six point five inch screen, like I said, 122 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: and it is thin. 123 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 2: It's light. 124 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: You do sacrifice a couple of features for this thinness, 125 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: and that is namely the camera. You're only getting one 126 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 1: forty eight megapixel lens, so there's no ultra wide, there's 127 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:24,479 Speaker 1: no dedicated telephoto lens. That doesn't mean that you can't 128 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: zoom in. Apple says you get two times optical quality zoom, 129 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: which means they have enough megapixels to sort of crop 130 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: in and still get a really good two X shot. 131 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: But beyond that, it's going to be digital only zoom. 132 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: And they talked a lot about this phone and the 133 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,359 Speaker 1: durability of this device, and even showed us some of 134 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: the testing facilities or some of the ways they test 135 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: these devices for durability, and yeah, it's pretty durable. It 136 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 1: does come with the A nineteen Pro chip, which I 137 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 1: know means nothing to you, but that is their highest 138 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: end chip right now. So they had an option they 139 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: could have put in a lesser chip, but they know 140 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: they put in their highest end chip, the same one 141 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: that's in the iPhone seventeen Pro models, which is a 142 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: really good sign. So you're not sacrificing a ton with 143 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: this device, maybe just the extra camera lenses. Now, the 144 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: thing that people are wondering about is the battery life. 145 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 1: Is the battery life going to be good on this 146 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: iPhone Air because it's super thin As we found out 147 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: on Samsung's Galaxy S twenty five Edge, battery life not 148 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: so great because it's too thin and the battery is 149 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: really small. Now in the iPhone, Apple does not give 150 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: you the battery sizes in millionp hours, So we don't 151 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: know what it is just yet until someone cracks this 152 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: thing open and looks at it. But we do know 153 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: that Apple is a pro at managing battery life, and 154 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: so they swear that the battery life is going to 155 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: be really good on here, but we'll see. But they 156 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: did come out with a magnetic battery pack that's nice 157 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: and thin and light that attaches to the back. So 158 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: who's this for. This is for someone that wants something 159 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: that's sleek, that's different. I mean, it really is an 160 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: amazing device, but it's not necessarily for the photography buffs 161 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: out that's going to start at one thousand dollars for 162 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 1: a two hundred and fifty six gigabyte model. That is 163 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: the new storage baseline for all of their models, all right. Now, 164 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: for the iPhone seventeen, this is a six point three 165 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: inch screen and the big upgrade here is one hundred 166 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: and twenty hurtz refresh rate. This is something that we 167 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: have wanted on the base level iPhone for many many years. 168 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: They call it promotion. It's been available on the higher 169 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: end models, it's been available on androids. Now it is 170 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: finally on the iPhone seventeen entry level model, which is 171 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 1: a huge upgrade. That means when you're scrolling, when you're 172 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 1: watching movies, everything's going to look buttery smooth, and yeah, 173 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: promotion it's going to look much more professional, much more 174 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: higher end than before. The other thing they added is 175 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 1: in anti glare coating. We first saw this on the 176 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: Galaxy S twenty five Ultra. It just makes the screen 177 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 1: so much easier to read in bright light. So this 178 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: phone is going to be much more premium than past 179 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: entry level models. You do get two lens this year, 180 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 1: the Ultra wide lens and again that same sort of 181 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: two x optical zoom quality lens that the iPhone Air has. 182 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: Then they also have a new selfie camera. This is 183 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 1: across all the models. It is now an eighteen megapixel 184 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 1: square sensor. What does that mean. It means you can 185 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: hold the phone any way you want, horizontal or vertical, 186 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 1: and it will automatically adjust based on how many people 187 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 1: are in the frame. So it uses AI to see 188 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 1: if it's one person in the frame, if it's a 189 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 1: group of people in the frame, if it's two people, 190 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 1: and it will make the photo. There's four ways you 191 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: can take it. You can take it horizontal, you can 192 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 1: take it vertical, you can take it just solo, which 193 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: is more close in, or you can take a wide 194 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 1: group shot and the AI is going to adjust all 195 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: of that for you no matter how you're holding the phone, 196 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:50,559 Speaker 1: but you also have the option of adjusting that yourself. Now, 197 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: the processor here is slightly lower tier. It's not the 198 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 1: A nineteen Pro, it's just the A nineteen, but still 199 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 1: going to be plenty powerful for everyday use. 200 00:09:58,600 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 2: They did add faster. 201 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: Wire less charging, which is really nice. Your phone's gonna 202 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: charge up faster again. Two hundred and fifty six gigabytes 203 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 1: of base storage. This phone starts at eight hundred dollars. 204 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 1: It comes in five colors. You've got lavender, you've got 205 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: missed blue, you've got sage, you've got white, you've got plaque. 206 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: All Right, I'm gonna take a break. We're gonna talk 207 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: about the iPhone seventeen Pro when we come back. That's 208 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 1: the powerhouse phone, the one that I really like. It's 209 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 1: available in two sizes, and it's got Apple's biggest battery ever. 210 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,959 Speaker 1: We'll talk more about the colors you can get in, 211 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,719 Speaker 1: including a brand new cosmic orange right here on rich 212 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 1: On Tech. If you want to get me a call 213 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: eighty to eight rich one oh one eighty eight seven 214 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: four to two four one zero one. This is rich 215 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 1: On Tech. All right, iPhone seventeen pro. This is the 216 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: Powerhouse available in two sizes, six point three and six 217 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: point nine, so you get your choice smaller or large, 218 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: and it's basically the same features across the board. It's 219 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 1: got this new design on the back, so this two 220 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 1: tone back design which has a ceramic glass square, so 221 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 1: they moved sort of all the stuff up to the 222 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: top of the phone, and the camera they call it 223 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: the camera plateau now is at the top of the phone, 224 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: and it's not just a square anymore. It sort of 225 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: goes across the whole back of the top there. This 226 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: also has the biggest battery ever in an iPhone. Apple 227 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: is claiming up to two more hours of video playback. 228 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 1: I mean, it already did really well, but more battery 229 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: life is always going to be better. And they said 230 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: that they got that more battery life because they moved 231 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: so many of the components to the top of that device. 232 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: They filled almost the entire back with the battery. And 233 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,959 Speaker 1: then they've got this new vapor chamber cooling system. We've 234 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: heard of this term before with Samsung, not so much 235 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: with Apple, but now they're making a big deal out 236 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 1: of it because there is vapor chamber, which basically takes 237 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 1: the heat from the center of the phone andipates it 238 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 1: out to the edges of the phone so that it 239 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: can cool off quicker. So during heavy gaming, video editing, 240 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: anytime you're using your phone a lot, it should remain 241 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 1: cooler under pressure, as I say. And then you've got 242 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 1: the best camera system on the iPhone available. You've got 243 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: a triple forty eight megapixel camera system. Now it's weird 244 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 1: because the optical zoom is now down to four times. 245 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: It used to be five times, but now you can 246 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 1: actually zoom optical quality up to eight times. 247 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 2: So what does that mean. 248 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 1: It just means that the camera captures more information now. 249 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: So Apple is getting a better zoom than they did before, 250 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: even at the higher zoom levels, if that makes sense. 251 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 1: And the top of the line zoom now is forty 252 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: times digital zoom versus twenty five before. 253 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 2: So you know, still testing this stuff. 254 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 1: So we're gonna see if the camera photos are better, 255 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 1: but I am assuming they are because Apple definitely steps 256 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 1: it up a notch every year. Also, this has the 257 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: top tier a nineteen pro chip. The storage again starts 258 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: at two hundred and fifty six gigabytes. The price did 259 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: go a little bit higher. So it now starts at 260 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: eleven hundred dollars, which is one hundred dollars higher than 261 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: last year, but you're getting double the storage, so I 262 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 1: guess you can justify it there. Now, the Promax they 263 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: have a massive two terabyte version at two thousand dollars. 264 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 2: That is a lot, but you can store a lot 265 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 2: on that phone. 266 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: Colors Cosmic orange is the headlining color. Not for me, 267 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: but you know if you like that color, go ahead. 268 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 1: Deep blue is the one that I really like. And 269 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: then they have a silver which is kind of just 270 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: their standard silver white color. 271 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:37,959 Speaker 2: So across the. 272 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: Lineup, no matter which phone you get this year, you're 273 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: getting that anti reflective display, which is going to be 274 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 1: a nice edition. You're getting the one hundred and twenty 275 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 1: hrtz refresh rate, which is going to be standard on 276 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: all phones. 277 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:49,559 Speaker 2: That's a nice edition. 278 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: The redesigned selfie camera, eighteen megapixel square censor, you're getting that. 279 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 1: Apple made a point to say people took five hundred 280 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: billion selfies on the iPhone last year. And then you're 281 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: getting two hundred and fifty six gigabytes of storage across 282 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:06,439 Speaker 1: the board, no more one hundred and twenty eight gigabytes 283 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: entry level. So if you're thinking of upgrading, this is 284 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 1: a pretty good year for the upgrades. 285 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 2: So which one do you want? 286 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,959 Speaker 1: The iPhone Air Ultra Thin, You're gonna probably trade a 287 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 1: little bit in battery life, a little bit in camera. 288 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 1: iPhone seventeen gonna be the sweet spot for most people. 289 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: You get great features at eight hundred dollars iPhone seventeen Pro, 290 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: you get the best battery, you get the best cameras, 291 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: the most powerful processor. It's going to be more expensive, 292 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: but that's for people that really want the best of 293 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: the best. So Apple did a great job this year, 294 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: and to be quite honest, you know, I would argue 295 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: that at this point the gap between iPhone and Android, like, 296 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 1: Apple has fixed almost all of the issues that Android 297 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: people had with Apple, you know, the refresh rate and 298 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: the camera and this, and the widgets and that, and 299 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 1: so it's really become a device that's in some ways 300 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: better than Android because you have such a great amount 301 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 1: of people using this device, and the apps and accessories 302 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: are just unmatched. You can't get that many apps and 303 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 1: accessories for the Android side of things. So it's just 304 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 1: a really good package altogether. All right, let's see if 305 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,359 Speaker 1: we can answer Carmen's question in Hollywood. 306 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 4: You're on with Rich Yes, good morning, thank you for 307 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 4: taking my call. I have a problem on my Google Docs. 308 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 2: Okay, I create. 309 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 4: I have a lot of a lot of folders, okay, Google. 310 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 4: But lately I figured it out one Google doc and 311 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 4: it was okay. And the last two days I tried 312 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 4: to open Google Dolls and let me open. He doesn't 313 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 4: say why, and it's nowhere I can go to click. 314 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 4: I don't see anywhere to go. What I did is 315 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 4: to finally, after I was playing on it, I ended 316 00:15:55,360 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 4: up copying and paste into a new for them staying 317 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 4: folder and then I left her thinking that it was 318 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 4: going to be okay. But when I try to see 319 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 4: it again, it happens the same. So there's no way 320 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 4: for me to open, and there's no way for me 321 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 4: to sink anymore. And it says you can be able 322 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 4: to sink anymore and sebord. 323 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: Okay, sounds like you're out of storage. So Google Docs 324 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 1: is completely cloud based. You got to free up your 325 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: storage that you can save and create new documents. So 326 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 1: go to one dot Google dot com, tap where it 327 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: says storage and you'll go into Google Drive and you'll 328 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 1: see it says cleanup space. And you want to go 329 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: into your Google Drive and get rid of some of 330 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: those big folders, those big documents. It will show you 331 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: your large files just to lead a couple of those 332 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: and hopefully Google Docs should work again. Also great shortcut 333 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: to know docs dot new Docs dot new will create 334 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 1: a new document instantly in Google Docs. Everything saved quickly 335 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: to the cloud. That's probably what your problem is. Eighty 336 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 1: eight Rich one oh one eighty eight seven four to 337 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 1: two four one zero one. Joining me now is Brian Tong, 338 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,159 Speaker 1: tech creator on YouTube and he was one of the 339 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 1: people at the Apple event along with myself. 340 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 2: Brian, Welcome to the show. 341 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 5: Thanks for having me Rich Happy, happy to be here 342 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 5: always man. 343 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 1: So let's talk about the event. You were there, what 344 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 1: was your initial impression. 345 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 5: Well, I think going into it initially we were I 346 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 5: feel like, going into it, maybe because we hear a 347 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 5: lot of the rumors, we're like, it'll it'll be a 348 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,120 Speaker 5: hull hum. You're like little incremental improvements. And I think 349 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 5: the improvements were still incremental, but at the same time, 350 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 5: I think they definitely impressed us with the design and 351 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,120 Speaker 5: engineing of the air A lot of people can see 352 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 5: pictures of it, you can see videos of it. Until 353 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 5: you actually hold this thing in your hand, it's going 354 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 5: to hit different. And once you do, I think that's 355 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 5: gonna instantly change a lot of minds or make their 356 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 5: buying decision a lot harder than they expected to. So 357 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 5: the air really stood out from just an engineering and 358 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 5: design perspective, even when we've seen a thin phone from 359 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 5: Samsung already Apples is it hits different? Overall though, I 360 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 5: think it was nice upgrades across the line, and I 361 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,400 Speaker 5: think the biggest takeaway, the sleeper of this entire announcement 362 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 5: is the iPhone seventeen, the base model entry level has 363 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:24,679 Speaker 5: become my number one recommendation for anyone who's thinking of 364 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 5: upgrading a phone. 365 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: Now, yeah, I mean that's the thing. They finally put 366 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: the finishing touches on every device across the lineup. Like 367 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,679 Speaker 1: there used to be some sacrifices if you went with 368 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 1: the standard iPhone, and now that you're getting the promotion, 369 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:44,679 Speaker 1: which is at higher refresh rate, the faster charging, the 370 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,680 Speaker 1: better camera, the selfie camera. It's really now just a 371 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 1: choice of like how much do you want to spend, 372 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 1: what features do you want, like, what's a priority to you, 373 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:56,200 Speaker 1: because the iPhone Air is also really compelling as long 374 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: as the battery life you know, works out. I'm not 375 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 1: sure on that part just yet, but as long as 376 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 1: that's a good thing. I mean, they really loaded that 377 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: with the features that you might not have expected, like 378 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: the pro chip, the pro display, Wi Fi seven, I mean, 379 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: all these different things that they just really did a 380 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 1: nice job on, except for the camera, but that's to 381 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: be expected. You know, no one's figured out how to 382 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:22,439 Speaker 1: put a really good camera lens or triple lenses on 383 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: a device that thing yet not yet. 384 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 5: And it's gonna happen, right This is just the first 385 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,920 Speaker 5: iteration of this design. Also just you know, in a way, 386 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 5: Apple kind of reclaiming a little bit of its juice 387 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 5: to say, hey, we've heard that people don't really consider 388 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 5: us on the same level of design as we used 389 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 5: to be. I think the iPhone era has reinvigorated that conversation, 390 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 5: like okay, okay, Apple's still here and this is going 391 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,440 Speaker 5: to most likely lead to other products in the future, 392 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,399 Speaker 5: and really just the design language that we expect to 393 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 5: see moving forward. But to your point, it's a really 394 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 5: compelling lineup from a standpoint of before, when someone would 395 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 5: ask me what phone to consider, I would kind of 396 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 5: not point them in the direction of the base model 397 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 5: at all, just because when you talk about the sacrifices, 398 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 5: the screen basically was not a modern display compared to 399 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 5: what every other phone manufacturer had. We harped an Apple 400 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 5: for not having a one hundred and twenty herz refresh rate. 401 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,400 Speaker 5: Now it's here, so we can't complain about it anymore, and 402 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 5: now you have that. I look at how most people 403 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 5: use their phone. Do most people really need need tell 404 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,199 Speaker 5: a true optical telephoto lens and go up to the 405 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 5: pro Do they need to shoot the highest level fidelity 406 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 5: of video that professional cinematographers use in pro resra? The 407 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 5: answer is no. But before I used to lean you 408 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 5: might want to look at the pro. Now no, I'm saying, 409 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 5: let's talk about what the seventeen does. And then if 410 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 5: you want to maybe take a more adventurous and want 411 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 5: to go with maybe a high level design, look at 412 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 5: the air knowing there's a couple sacrifices, but it's still 413 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 5: a pro level phone. And then if you really want 414 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 5: all the pro features, go to the iPhone pro level. 415 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 5: So I don't say this every year, but this is 416 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,880 Speaker 5: one of the more compelling lineups that Apple has from 417 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 5: a purchasing decision. Yeah, we've seen before. 418 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 1: Totally agree with that, because, yeah, I used to push 419 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: people towards the Pro models just because it would smooth 420 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: over anything that might not be so good on the 421 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: seventeen or the entry level model without exactly explaining why. 422 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 1: Like I knew that the refresh rate, but it's really 423 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,199 Speaker 1: tough to explain to someone like, oh, this has a 424 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,680 Speaker 1: lesser refresh rate, Like what does that mean to the 425 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 1: average person. I can see it, you can see it, 426 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 1: but then when the average person's now using it, it's like, oh, wait, 427 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: this feels just as premium as the top of the 428 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 1: line phone. And the anti reflective I think is a 429 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,920 Speaker 1: nice addition as well. I think the two hundred and 430 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: fifty six gigabytes of base storage is also a huge improvement. 431 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: And the fact that they didn't really raise prices, especially 432 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 1: on the iPhone seventeen. I mean, the air is brand new, 433 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: but they kept it under a thousand bucks, which is 434 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 1: pretty incredible. And then the seventeen Pro we got a 435 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 1: little price bump, but you know that's be expected because 436 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,959 Speaker 1: they did raise the storage on that one as well. So, uh, 437 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 1: like you said, I think of very compelling your what 438 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 1: colors are? Well, let me ask you about the selfie camera. 439 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,920 Speaker 1: What do you think about that? Because I'm not convinced. 440 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:15,359 Speaker 5: You're not You're not convinced. So I'm gonna tell you 441 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,879 Speaker 5: this rich out of when I left the keynote, I 442 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:23,679 Speaker 5: thought that was the most compelling feature of the entire announcement. 443 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 5: And it seems subtle, right. This is something that when 444 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 5: I look at when Apple announced this ability to hold 445 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 5: your selfie camera in this portrait vertical position. But now 446 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 5: this camera has versatility where it can auto detect or 447 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,199 Speaker 5: you can do it manually to now change it to 448 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 5: landscape without you physically rotating that phone awkwardly reaching for 449 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,399 Speaker 5: the camera button, fiddling with it just to get a 450 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 5: shot of your entire family all in one spot. This 451 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,159 Speaker 5: is one of those sil I don't want to call 452 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 5: it silly, but quality of life improvements that I think 453 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 5: rich give me, give me a two weeks or a 454 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 5: month with you on that. I'm gonna I think you're 455 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 5: gonna come back to me, Like Brian, that feature is 456 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 5: actually pretty cool. It's I love it. I love it. 457 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 2: I'm still not convinced. 458 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 1: I hold my phone as I always have horizontally for 459 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,479 Speaker 1: selfies for many, many years. I actually don't think I've 460 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,360 Speaker 1: ever taken a selfie vertically. 461 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 5: Hold on, ever, we're talking about social media on. 462 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 1: You never, no, I'll yes, I'll square it off. I 463 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 1: know I will always. And it's funny because I watch 464 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: people struggle. Now I see what you're saying, because I 465 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 1: do watch people struggle to take a selfie vertically to 466 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 1: fit everyone in the frame. So I have no doubt 467 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 1: that Apple knew that, and that's why they made it 468 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 1: so that it automatically pulls back, adjust the framing and 469 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:44,400 Speaker 1: fits more people in that front facing lens even when 470 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 1: you are vertically holding your phone. And that's great, and 471 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 1: I think for people that take a selfie that way, 472 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: it's going to be an amazing, welcome edition. For me, 473 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 1: because I take my selfies the other way. There's really 474 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,119 Speaker 1: almost no benefit to this new feature because I'm so 475 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 1: used to holding my phone that way anyway, and that's 476 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: my preference. So I've tried already, you know, with a 477 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: little bit of hands on time to like take it vertically, 478 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,159 Speaker 1: and it's a struggle. But it's again, it's different for me, 479 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 1: but again I think for people that are already taking. 480 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 2: It that way, it will be better. 481 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 5: This is what reminds me and you and I come 482 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:22,160 Speaker 5: from a similar generation of when I refused, I admiantly 483 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 5: refused this idea of vertical video. 484 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, of. 485 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 5: Course, unacceptable, unacceptable. But over time just the culture ended 486 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 5: up really adopting vertical video. 487 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 2: And why do they do it? 488 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 5: Really out of convenience, out of not having to turn 489 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 5: your phone, sacrificing some of the frame, but now reframing 490 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 5: photos and videos in a different way to you know, 491 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 5: compliment this convenience of just holding your phone there. So 492 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 5: that's I think that there's a little bit of that 493 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 5: in what you're saying right now. 494 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, we'll say you're right. Yeah, I can see that. No, 495 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 2: I know, and you're you're right. 496 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 1: I was against vertical video because I'm a TV guy 497 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: and I you know, horizontal videos how you shoot for TV. 498 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:11,399 Speaker 1: But like you said, when we all first started getting phones, 499 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: you know, you'd flip it to the side. Now we're 500 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: just too lazy.

So all three models got 551 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: an update this year. This is if you're thinking about 552 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 1: updating any of your Apple stuff upgrading, this is the 553 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 1: year to do it. Because Apple is firing on all cylinders. 554 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 1: They have upgraded just about everything that was the little 555 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 1: annoyances of all the products. It's all fixed. I mean really, 556 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:32,399 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what they can do after this. So 557 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 1: all the iPhones are getting or the Apple Watch, they're 558 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 1: getting five G. So all the connectivity issues people had 559 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:42,119 Speaker 1: with LTE gone five G now five G support. So 560 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 1: the se three this is the entry level Apple Watch. 561 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 1: It starts at two hundred and fifty dollars. It's got 562 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 1: a new chip inside, so it's gonna be faster, it's 563 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: got stronger glass so it's gonna be more durable, and 564 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 1: it now supports fast charging, so that means you can 565 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 1: charge this thing way faster, eight hours of use from 566 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 1: an eight minute charge, and then it's got the eighteen 567 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,719 Speaker 1: hour battery life. So see, if you're looking for that 568 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: for your kids, that's the best model for the kids. 569 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 1: It always it hasn't always on display too for the 570 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 1: first time, which means you don't have to rotate your 571 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 1: wrist to see the screen. It's it's always on, So 572 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: that's gonna be great. Just make sure you go cellular 573 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: if you're getting it for your kids, if you want 574 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 1: to keep track of them and you know, not have 575 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: a phone nearby. Now, the series eleven, this is sort 576 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 1: of the standard you know Apple Watch that you think about. 577 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:29,679 Speaker 1: They now have hypertension alerts built into this, so it 578 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,960 Speaker 1: will alert you to possible high blood pressure patterns. No, 579 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,359 Speaker 1: it's not taking a live reading. There's no cuff for calibration. 580 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 1: It just runs in the background and when it's checking 581 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 1: all your heart stuff, it's sort of looking for an 582 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: algorithm that says, uh, you might want to check for hypertension. 583 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,960 Speaker 1: And so they expect to notify a million people this 584 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 1: year about hypertension that didn't even realize they had it 585 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 1: or possibly have it let's see. Of course, also has 586 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: the ECG, the irregular heart you know, rhythm notification, sleep apnea, 587 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 1: all that's stuff. And then it's got a bigger battery 588 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: now up to twenty four hours instead of eighteen because 589 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 1: they want you to sleep with this thing on. So 590 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: that's why the battery life is better. You can charge it, 591 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: wear it to bed, get through that eight hours of sleep. 592 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 1: Hopefully you're getting eight hours of sleep starting price three 593 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 1: ninety nine. There on the series eleven, also again with 594 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 1: five G. Then you've got the Ultra. This is kind 595 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 1: of the rugged, tough Apple Watch out there. It's got 596 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 1: a bigger screen thanks to thinner borders, so same case size, 597 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: now three D printed, which is wild. It's going to 598 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 1: be brighter outside. It's got new watch faces, which is fine. 599 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 1: But the big headline here is built in satellite connectivity. 600 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 1: So now you can satellite message for an emergency or 601 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 1: just through my message when you're out and about and 602 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 1: there's no cellular so that's wild. Let's see yeah, Apples, 603 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: this is their watch for they say, athletes and explorers. 604 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: So the other thing about the SE I wanted to 605 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 1: mention is that the let's see here. Oh, they're also 606 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 1: added a sleep score, so now it's going to score 607 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 1: your sleep too, which I mean, is just so much 608 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 1: going on with these watches. The Apple Watch SE, the 609 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 1: entry level model is also getting the ability to play 610 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 1: media through the speaker. So if you want to play 611 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 1: like a podcast just while you're on a walk or something, 612 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: or listen to the radio, whatever, you can just listen 613 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 1: right through the speaker that's on it all right. AirPods 614 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 1: Pro three these are a major update. So now they 615 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 1: have a new design with five eartip sizes and there's 616 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 1: foam inside, so they've got a much more secure fit 617 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 1: than before. Sound quality is better, noise cancelation is better, 618 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: and the transparency mode, which means you can hear the 619 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 1: people around you, doesn't sound as like mechanical. It sounds 620 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 1: now much more natural. They also have a live translation 621 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 1: feature that they've built in which basically, if someone is 622 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 1: talking to you in a different language, you can listen 623 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: in your ears in the language that you understand. And 624 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: I did get a demo of that. It worked nicely. 625 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 1: We'll see how that works in real life. They also 626 00:30:55,760 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 1: built in heart rate sensors into the AirPods themselves, so 627 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 1: you can track workouts without needing an Apple Watch. You 628 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 1: can go on a run, you can go on whatever 629 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 1: you want, and it's going to track fifty different types 630 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: of workouts. With just the air Pods Pro. You'll see 631 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 1: your heart rate and your calories burned, which is pretty 632 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 1: wild and the same price as before two hundred and 633 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 1: fifty dollars eight I mean. 634 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 6: Oh. 635 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 1: They also increase the sweat and dust resistance so again, 636 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 1: just some really really nice upgrades here. 637 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 2: I think Apple is just on a tear and. 638 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 1: At this point it's almost getting tough to catch up 639 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 1: to them because they've got so much capital, so much 640 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 1: engineering talent, and such a wide swath of people using 641 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 1: these products, and not to mention all the Apple stores 642 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:45,959 Speaker 1: everywhere for service and support and sales. So it's getting 643 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 1: to the point where, yeah, the Android stuff is great, 644 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 1: and I've always loved Android and I think it's amazing. 645 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:53,959 Speaker 1: But like Apple has a story now where you can 646 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 1: use your AirPods, you can use your Apple Watch, you 647 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 1: can use your iPhone, you can use your MacBook, you 648 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 1: can use your iPad. They all work really well together. 649 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 1: And by the way, there's a million and one accessories. 650 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: And by the way, if you need help, you can 651 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: go to a store. And by the way, if you 652 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 1: need software, you can download it. So it's gotten to 653 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 1: the point where it's just so good. I feel like 654 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 1: it's getting tough for rivals to catch up now. I 655 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: think the Pixel from Google is an amazing phone, the 656 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 1: Pixel ten. I've been using the Pixel ten pro XL 657 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 1: and it's amazing, but the video is nowhere near what 658 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 1: the iPhone does, and the accessories are nowhere near what 659 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: the iPhone has, and the speed is nowhere near what 660 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 1: the iPhone has. So again, it's just that they've done 661 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff that's really good. And I think 662 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 1: this year I really have no qualms with almost anything. 663 00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 1: So if you're thinking, like Rich, do I want to upgrade? 664 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: I think this is the year to do it all right, 665 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 1: So eighty eight Rich one oh one eighty eight seven 666 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: four to two four one zero one. Everything's linked up 667 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 1: on the website. This is episode number one thirty nine, 668 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: So if you go to Rich on tech dot TV, 669 00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 1: you can get the show notes for episode one thirty 670 00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: nine and everything I talked about is right there. You 671 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 1: can watch my stories from TV on all these things 672 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 1: I went hands on with all these gadgets, and all 673 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 1: my thoughts are there as well. I did want to 674 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 1: mention before the end. 675 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:11,280 Speaker 2: Of the hour here. 676 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 1: So I was in a serious car accident this week 677 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 1: and it was scary. I was coming back from the 678 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 1: Apple event, I was going to work and you know, 679 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 1: as I always do every single day, and it was 680 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 1: just really really fast that it happened. It's just I 681 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 1: can't tell you what it feels like because it was 682 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: so fast, it was so loud, it was so jarring 683 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 1: that at the same time I knew what happened, and 684 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 1: I didn't know what happened. And of course the airbags 685 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 1: went off instantly, which just you know, adds to the situation. 686 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 2: My ears were ringing. It was at the. 687 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:50,800 Speaker 1: Same time so loud and then so silent right after 688 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:52,680 Speaker 1: because it was almost in the middle of the night 689 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 1: that this happened. And then I as soon as I 690 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 1: realized I was like in the middle of an intersection. 691 00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 1: Of course, I was worried about another car coming at me, 692 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 1: and so I slid out of my car like it 693 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 1: was just like reflex at this point where I like 694 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 1: just found the door opened the door. When I realized, 695 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 1: I was like, you know, my limbs and everything were 696 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: all intact. I just you will go into autopilot, right 697 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:18,640 Speaker 1: like my brain was just working on adrenaline and like instinct, 698 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 1: and so I opened up the door. I slid out 699 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 1: through the bottom of the door because all the airbags 700 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:26,439 Speaker 1: were around me and those things are hard. By the way, 701 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 1: It's just a moment I will never ever forget. Being 702 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 1: in the darkness of the night and just it was 703 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 1: silent but this loud, crazy thing just happened anyway. Overall, 704 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 1: you know, I was bruised, I'm sore, I had cuts 705 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,359 Speaker 1: on me, I was bleeding, ringing ears. My ears are 706 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:46,359 Speaker 1: still ringing. Went to the er for hours getting checked out. 707 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 1: But my takeaway here is number one. I'm alive, and 708 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:54,480 Speaker 1: I'm not kidding when I tell you I am surprised. 709 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 1: I'm here, to be honest. If you see the picture 710 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:58,239 Speaker 1: I posted to my Instagram in my car, it is 711 00:34:58,400 --> 00:34:59,959 Speaker 1: just really, really bad. 712 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 2: This is my second chance at. 713 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,160 Speaker 1: This world, and I'm going to make the most of 714 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 1: it because I cannot believe what happened and how quickly 715 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:09,720 Speaker 1: life can change. 716 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:11,840 Speaker 2: So just keep that in mind. 717 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 1: Eighty eight Rich one oh one eighty eight seven four 718 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,839 Speaker 1: to two four one zero one. This is Rich on Tech. 719 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 1: Let's go to Jim in northern Arizona. Jim, you're on 720 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 1: with Rich. 721 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 6: Hey, Rich, i'd hi from Presco Valley again. 722 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 2: Hello, welcome back. 723 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:32,919 Speaker 6: I'm so glad you're okay. That photo of your car 724 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:34,360 Speaker 6: was something to see. 725 00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:36,399 Speaker 2: Boy, Yeah, something to be in too. 726 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:42,280 Speaker 6: Yeah. I imagine. I currently use a password manager across 727 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:46,799 Speaker 6: multiple Windows devices and iOS devices, and I'm getting more 728 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 6: and more prompts to switch to pass key, and I 729 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 6: wasn't quite sure how that would work across multiple devices, 730 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:59,359 Speaker 6: Windows and PCs and iOS. And could I still use 731 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:01,319 Speaker 6: my user idea password if I switched to it? 732 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 2: Good question. 733 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 1: So pass keys are the new way to log in 734 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:11,320 Speaker 1: that uses sort of a digital handshake with the device 735 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,480 Speaker 1: that you're on. It exchanges a little token and it 736 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 1: replaces the password. Now, I will tell you in my experience, 737 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:19,839 Speaker 1: and I've set up a couple of these pass keys. 738 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 1: When they work, they're amazing. But here's the thing that 739 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 1: I've noticed, and a lot of these websites are pushing 740 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 1: hard for passkeys, and Jim, I think you're doing the 741 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 1: right thing by using a universal password manager that works 742 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 1: across all of your devices. Because many of the password managers, 743 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 1: like a bit Warden or a dash Lane or a 744 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 1: one password, a lot of them can handle pass keys. 745 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 1: But also your Windows computer can do pass keys, and 746 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 1: Chrome can do pass keys, and iOS can do passkeys. 747 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,640 Speaker 1: So what I've noticed is that when the past key 748 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 1: prompt comes up, it's trying to ping all these different 749 00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 1: ways of getting that pass key, because unlike a password, 750 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,880 Speaker 1: you can have a pass key for different devices and 751 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,719 Speaker 1: this is where it gets a little bit confusing. So 752 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: let's just use home Depot as an example. Let's say 753 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 1: you go to the home Depot website and it says, hey, 754 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 1: would you like to set up a pass key, and 755 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 1: you go sure. It puts a little piece of data 756 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,440 Speaker 1: wherever you save that pass key, so it could be 757 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,960 Speaker 1: on your Windows computer, it could be through your password manager, 758 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 1: it could be through your Apple computer, could be through 759 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:27,400 Speaker 1: your iOS passwords app. So wherever you store that, it 760 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,400 Speaker 1: stays there and then it's used the next time. So 761 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:32,840 Speaker 1: not only could you use your password manager, but you 762 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 1: could also have a pass key on your phone. You 763 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:36,719 Speaker 1: could also have a pass key on your laptop. You 764 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 1: could have a pass key on your tablet. And so 765 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 1: it gets a little confusing to use these, But I 766 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 1: guess my advice is to try it out with a 767 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,480 Speaker 1: website that you don't really care about too much, like 768 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,279 Speaker 1: a home Depot. Sorry home Depot, I mean, you know 769 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:54,440 Speaker 1: what I mean. Any website that's just you know, you're 770 00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 1: not not like your Google like. Maybe start with one 771 00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:58,839 Speaker 1: of these other websites just to get a flavor of it. 772 00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 1: And once you set up the pass key, logging in 773 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 1: is pretty easy because however you typically log into your 774 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 1: computer is how you would authorize that pass key. So, 775 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:12,439 Speaker 1: for instance, if you're on your phone and you try 776 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 1: to log in with a pass key and you use 777 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:15,759 Speaker 1: a password manager, all you have to do is just 778 00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:18,200 Speaker 1: use face ide or your fingerprint reader for your to 779 00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 1: open up your password manager and it would just exchange 780 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:24,560 Speaker 1: that pass key. So you're not typing anything in, you're 781 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 1: not copying and pasting, it's not filling in a password. 782 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 1: And the beauty of past keys is that they're not 783 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:34,960 Speaker 1: easily hacked because you can go to a phishing website 784 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 1: and copy and paste your password in there, or in 785 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:41,120 Speaker 1: the worst case scenario, your password manager gets tricked and 786 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: it pasts that password in there and you log in 787 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 1: and next thing you know, they're stealing your information past key. 788 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 1: It's really, really almost nearly impossible for that to happen 789 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 1: because the website has to exchange a special token with 790 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 1: your password manager to get that pass key back, and 791 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 1: so it is much more secure in that aspect, and 792 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:07,279 Speaker 1: there's no nothing to forget, there's nothing to remember. So 793 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,759 Speaker 1: can you use pass keys in addition to your password? Yes, 794 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 1: So even if you use a pass key, you can 795 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 1: still log in with your old password the old fashioned way. 796 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:18,959 Speaker 1: The thing that I've noticed that makes this a little 797 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:23,960 Speaker 1: bit tricky is two factor authentication. So on my major websites, 798 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:29,000 Speaker 1: of course, I have two factor authentication turned on. So 799 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,839 Speaker 1: pass keys are supposed to be super smooth and seamless. 800 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:36,279 Speaker 1: Where let's say you go to that home Depot website, 801 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 1: you log in, it says passkey, you tap pass key, 802 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:42,759 Speaker 1: it pings your password manager, Your password manager asks you 803 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 1: for your face ID, You do your face ID, and 804 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 1: it sends that pass key to home Depot and you 805 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 1: get logged in. That's the way it should work, really 806 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:53,239 Speaker 1: fast and easily. But if you have two factor authentication 807 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 1: set up, it's probably still going to text you that 808 00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 1: code for two factor authentication, so it's still a little 809 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:05,400 Speaker 1: extra step to log into those websites. So for me personally, 810 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,239 Speaker 1: as much as I want to recommend past keys and 811 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 1: I think you should try them, and I do think 812 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 1: they're easy when they work, I'm not completely convinced just 813 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 1: yet in the ease of use for the average person 814 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,440 Speaker 1: because it is a little confusing because literally, when I 815 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:22,920 Speaker 1: go to certain websites, I'm not kidding. On my desktop computer, 816 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:26,319 Speaker 1: my MacBook, I have my password manager pops up to 817 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 1: offer up the to save the pass key, then my 818 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:32,759 Speaker 1: Chrome pops up to ask to save the pass key, 819 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 1: and then my MacBook offers to save the pass key 820 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 1: or to push the pass key through. So it's like 821 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,759 Speaker 1: all these things kind of competing, and I think you'd 822 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,640 Speaker 1: have to probably go into settings and make sure that 823 00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 1: you turn off all these other ways of saving things. 824 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 2: But it's it's a little complicated. 825 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:53,319 Speaker 1: So I guess the long answer, Jim is that try them, 826 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 1: see how they work out for you. Try them on 827 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 1: some low stakes websites. But I do have them set 828 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 1: up for a bunch of my Way websites that I 829 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 1: regularly log into, and when it works, it's amazing. 830 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:06,720 Speaker 2: Because it's so fast and it's so easy. 831 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 1: But I just and I guess I don't want to 832 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: wish the two factor authentication away, but at the same time, 833 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:15,319 Speaker 1: it is that extra layer of well, why is this 834 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:18,879 Speaker 1: easier than just my password being entered? But I think 835 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, the ease comes from 836 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:25,879 Speaker 1: the fact that it's not easily phished. Nobody can say, hey, 837 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 1: can you tell me your pass key? It's just not 838 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:31,920 Speaker 1: possible you can't verbally speak a pass key like you 839 00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:35,959 Speaker 1: can a password, and I think at that moment that's 840 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:39,160 Speaker 1: what makes it way more secure for the average person 841 00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:42,399 Speaker 1: is you can't be tricked into sharing this pass key. 842 00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:47,799 Speaker 1: So Windows supports passkeys, Apple supports passkeys, Android supports pass keys, 843 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:51,359 Speaker 1: one password, dash Lane, Bitwarden, you can do it all. 844 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:53,360 Speaker 1: If you want to set a pass key up, go 845 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 1: to your website that you want to set it up 846 00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,480 Speaker 1: for log in the old fashioned way with your password. 847 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:00,920 Speaker 1: Go to your account settings, look for passy. It's somewhere 848 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:04,160 Speaker 1: in there. Tap create and make sure you save that 849 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 1: pass key in a place where you can retrieve it. 850 00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:08,399 Speaker 2: And it's not a big deal. 851 00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 1: If you can't, like retrieve that passkey later, you can 852 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:13,440 Speaker 1: still use your password to log in. I think there's 853 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,359 Speaker 1: a little confusion there. And there is a website, this 854 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:20,319 Speaker 1: Fido Alliance, which tells you all the different websites that 855 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:24,160 Speaker 1: support passkeys, and it's a lot. I mean, I'm looking 856 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:30,879 Speaker 1: through Adobe, Amazon, Bank of America, Best Buy, Bitwarden, BMW, 857 00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 1: City Bank, CVS, Coinbase. I mean, these are just the 858 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:38,480 Speaker 1: c's eBay. So if you want to try it on 859 00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 1: one of these websites, go to this, I'll put this 860 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:45,280 Speaker 1: in the show notes, this Fido Alliance passkeys directory. So again, 861 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,400 Speaker 1: try it on a low stakes website. So go to 862 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 1: something like I said, like a home depot or an 863 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:53,600 Speaker 1: eBay or a kayak and just set up a passkey 864 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 1: and see what the process is like, and then log 865 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 1: out and log back in and see if it makes 866 00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 1: life a little bit easier for you. So according to this, 867 00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:06,960 Speaker 1: let's see, there's one hundred and fifty nine websites that 868 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,799 Speaker 1: support this right now in their directory. There may be more, 869 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:12,279 Speaker 1: but big companies like Verizon and Walmart are all this 870 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:15,640 Speaker 1: to hear Yahoo, So again, try it out, see what 871 00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:18,440 Speaker 1: it's like. Good question, Jim, And yes, you can use 872 00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:23,000 Speaker 1: them across devices. My recommendation is to use them in 873 00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:26,120 Speaker 1: your password manager. Whatever you're using for your password manager, 874 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:27,880 Speaker 1: that's where you want to set up and save your 875 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,960 Speaker 1: pass keys. The one thing I do not recommend do 876 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 1: not use your pass word manager for your two factor 877 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:38,239 Speaker 1: authentication codes. A lot of the password managers let you 878 00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:42,120 Speaker 1: also save two factor authentication codes for your websites. 879 00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:42,799 Speaker 2: Do not do that. 880 00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: I don't recommend it because if someone was ever to 881 00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:48,600 Speaker 1: get in to your password manager. Now they not only 882 00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 1: have your passwords, but they also have your two factor 883 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:55,240 Speaker 1: authentication codes. So for that reason, I recommend a third 884 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,680 Speaker 1: party two factor authentication code manager, and the one I 885 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:04,040 Speaker 1: love is called Proton Authenticator. It has every single feature 886 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:08,000 Speaker 1: that I want in a two factor authentication app, which 887 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,680 Speaker 1: namely is if you want to use it locally on 888 00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:13,239 Speaker 1: your devices, you can, but if you want to use 889 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 1: it across all your devices, you can. If you want 890 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:19,279 Speaker 1: to import keys from another. 891 00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:20,239 Speaker 2: App, you can do that. 892 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,520 Speaker 1: If you want to export all of your codes to 893 00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:24,399 Speaker 1: another app you want to move you find something better 894 00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 1: that comes along, you can do that. So Proton has 895 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:31,680 Speaker 1: really made a slick authentication app that is completely free 896 00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:35,040 Speaker 1: and it does everything you need. Why is it free, Rich, Well, 897 00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 1: because they want you to discover how amazing this app 898 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:39,680 Speaker 1: is for free. And then you say, let me check 899 00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:41,719 Speaker 1: out what Proton's all about. I like what they're doing here, 900 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 1: I like the design. It's clean, it's slick, it's really 901 00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:47,240 Speaker 1: really well done. So let me see what else they offer. 902 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:49,320 Speaker 1: And yes, they offer a whole bunch of other stuff. 903 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:52,440 Speaker 1: They offer Proton pass which is their password manager, their 904 00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:57,560 Speaker 1: VPN mail which is super secure, drive calendar. So They've 905 00:44:57,600 --> 00:44:59,360 Speaker 1: got a whole bunch of stuff that they offer, and 906 00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 1: it's that hey low effect. You go into Proton Authenticator 907 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:06,040 Speaker 1: and next thing you know, using Proton mail, using Proton vpn. 908 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:08,360 Speaker 1: That's the name of the game there. And I believe 909 00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:10,879 Speaker 1: Proton vpn actually has a free level too. I think 910 00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:14,640 Speaker 1: it's one of the few VPNs with a free level 911 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:19,920 Speaker 1: of service. Proton Yeah, free vpn, one device, no ads, 912 00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,200 Speaker 1: no logs, unlimited and free forever.

I'm glad i'm talking to you. 924 00:45:57,480 --> 00:45:59,799 Speaker 1: Well, I'm glad you're talking to me as well. Thank 925 00:45:59,880 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 1: you for that. What can I help you with? 926 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:06,439 Speaker 7: Okay, so a simple question. I have a Pixel nine 927 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:09,399 Speaker 7: pro I got it like in January. Ever since I've 928 00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:13,880 Speaker 7: had it, I've never seen it downloads an update because 929 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:16,440 Speaker 7: it always stops in the middle and says you have 930 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:20,239 Speaker 7: to start all over again connecting your wireless. And when 931 00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:24,800 Speaker 7: I look at my wireless connector, it always says saved, 932 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:30,320 Speaker 7: check password and try again. Oh okay, and otherwise I 933 00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:35,239 Speaker 7: have I have unlimited wireless with AT and T, So 934 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:39,120 Speaker 7: I'm totally confused of what is being downloaded. And I'm 935 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:42,640 Speaker 7: at sixteen at Android sixteen. Isn't that where you're. 936 00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 8: Supposed to be? 937 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:45,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's Android sixteen. You're you're good there, Okay, So 938 00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:50,000 Speaker 1: a couple things here. Number One, it doesn't typically like 939 00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:54,239 Speaker 1: to download the software updates over cellular. It will in 940 00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:56,880 Speaker 1: a pinch, I believe, but it mostly wants Wi Fi 941 00:46:56,920 --> 00:47:01,000 Speaker 1: because they're usually pretty sizable. So it sounds like your 942 00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:04,880 Speaker 1: Wi Fi is not properly connected on this device. So 943 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:09,000 Speaker 1: saved check password means that it's trying to use the 944 00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:11,680 Speaker 1: password and it's not working, and so it's actually not 945 00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 1: connected to that Wi Fi network. And so what you 946 00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:18,920 Speaker 1: want to do is go into your settings. Okay, do 947 00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:20,680 Speaker 1: you want to follow alonger you on your phone? 948 00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:23,120 Speaker 7: Well, I'm on my sittings that I've done this like 949 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:24,279 Speaker 7: ten times. 950 00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 2: Okay password, Oh okay, well, let me let me walk 951 00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:28,320 Speaker 2: you through it. 952 00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:30,799 Speaker 7: If I try again just to see what's going on. 953 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:32,440 Speaker 1: Okay, well, let me walk you through what I think 954 00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:33,719 Speaker 1: you should do, and then I'll give you a couple 955 00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:37,319 Speaker 1: of solutions that will probably fix this forever. But it 956 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:41,200 Speaker 1: doesn't require throwing your phone out the window, all right. 957 00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 1: So you go into your settings, you go to network 958 00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:46,200 Speaker 1: and Internet, and then it says internet wireless. You tap there, 959 00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:50,400 Speaker 1: and where you have your wireless connection you want to connect, 960 00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:53,960 Speaker 1: tap the little it looks like a little gear icon 961 00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:57,480 Speaker 1: and you want to forget the network completely, and that 962 00:47:57,600 --> 00:47:59,959 Speaker 1: way you are starting fresh. 963 00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:00,600 Speaker 2: With this network. 964 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:03,080 Speaker 1: And then I would restart your phone and go back 965 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:05,799 Speaker 1: in and connect to that network using that password. And 966 00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 1: if it says you know, connected, then your password worked. 967 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,760 Speaker 1: If it says problem, then that password is not working. 968 00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:15,400 Speaker 1: That's number one. And in the upper right hand corner 969 00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:17,880 Speaker 1: of your phone, you should see the five G or 970 00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:21,799 Speaker 1: four G replaced with a little WiFi indicator, so that 971 00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:24,680 Speaker 1: means that everything is working now. If that's not working, 972 00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:27,759 Speaker 1: the next level of what I would do is go 973 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:29,640 Speaker 1: down into your. 974 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:32,319 Speaker 2: Let's see system. I gotta find where this is. 975 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:36,040 Speaker 1: Okay, system under settings and then there's something called reset options, 976 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 1: and there's an option called reset Bluetooth and Wi Fi, 977 00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:43,600 Speaker 1: and so I would do that, and that's going to 978 00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:46,560 Speaker 1: wipe all of your Wi Fi settings clean. It's going 979 00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:49,439 Speaker 1: to wipe all of your Bluetooth connections clean, and you're 980 00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:51,319 Speaker 1: going to have to re log in to your Wi 981 00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:54,239 Speaker 1: Fi networks no matter where you are, work, home, and 982 00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:56,040 Speaker 1: you're also going to have to reconnect your Bluetooth. 983 00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 2: And if that. 984 00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:01,120 Speaker 1: Doesn't work, which by the way, should fix like ninety 985 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:04,520 Speaker 1: nine point nine percent of problems that people have, you 986 00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:08,480 Speaker 1: can do what's called a factory reset. Now, with with 987 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:11,040 Speaker 1: pixel phones, pretty much everything's backed up to the clouds. 988 00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:13,560 Speaker 1: You're not going to lose much data, if any at all. 989 00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:14,160 Speaker 2: You shouldn't. 990 00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 1: But what you can do is that factory reset will 991 00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:21,640 Speaker 1: reset this phone back to the factory conditions. Any little bugs, 992 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:24,400 Speaker 1: any little issues that are lingering, will all be cleaned 993 00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:27,279 Speaker 1: up and fixed. And in that way, you can then 994 00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:29,040 Speaker 1: reset your phone up. You're gonna have to log in, 995 00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:31,120 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to download all your stuff again, but 996 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 1: your phone should work. The other thing I would say 997 00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:37,800 Speaker 1: to do is there's something that people don't do on 998 00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:41,480 Speaker 1: the on the Android side of things, and there is 999 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 1: a let's see where is it here? Okay, I gotta 1000 00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:47,680 Speaker 1: find it. They moved it a system and updates here 1001 00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:51,239 Speaker 1: it is.

And it is the thinnest iPhone ever, 1067 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:18,799 Speaker 10: but it's got that pro performance inside and it's unbelievably 1068 00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:19,359 Speaker 10: thin and light. 1069 00:53:19,400 --> 00:53:20,799 Speaker 9: You got to pick it up to feel it. 1070 00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:23,279 Speaker 10: Yet it's really durable, right. We talked about how it's 1071 00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:26,360 Speaker 10: more durable than any previous iPhone, and that includes our 1072 00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:30,560 Speaker 10: choice and materials like titanium, some great engineering into being 1073 00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:33,600 Speaker 10: able to put all the components in that top camera 1074 00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:36,200 Speaker 10: plateau area to save even more room for battery life. 1075 00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:39,600 Speaker 10: So k'all came together, I think explain. 1076 00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:41,960 Speaker 1: That term camera plateau is the first time I heard it. Yes, 1077 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:43,960 Speaker 1: makes sense, like a little mountain on the phone. 1078 00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:47,160 Speaker 10: It's that top cart where the camera lives, right, And 1079 00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:49,879 Speaker 10: so for the first time, we've precision milled that out 1080 00:53:49,960 --> 00:53:53,040 Speaker 10: and we're putting even more advanced technologies. In fact, the 1081 00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:56,759 Speaker 10: A nineteen prochip lives in that top area for the 1082 00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:59,000 Speaker 10: first time, and that's one of the reasons why we're 1083 00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:02,120 Speaker 10: able to the great performance of the phone and still 1084 00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:04,400 Speaker 10: retain a lot of great space for battery life and 1085 00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:07,440 Speaker 10: everything else. One thing that if I didn't mention yet, 1086 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:10,480 Speaker 10: the pro motion display being across the lineup, that's a 1087 00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:11,480 Speaker 10: great everyday benefit. 1088 00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:14,000 Speaker 1: Can you explain that in like an average consumer term, 1089 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:15,560 Speaker 1: because it's like it's it's kind of a tough thing 1090 00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:18,200 Speaker 1: to understand. What does that mean exactly that the promotion 1091 00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:20,240 Speaker 1: display has come to the base model. 1092 00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:23,359 Speaker 10: Yeah, so we've only typically had pro motion on our 1093 00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:25,920 Speaker 10: pro models, so this year the first time it's going 1094 00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:26,200 Speaker 10: to be. 1095 00:54:26,120 --> 00:54:27,279 Speaker 9: On iPhone seventeen. 1096 00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:30,040 Speaker 10: And so what that is is as you're scrolling through 1097 00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:31,440 Speaker 10: content like you're looking. 1098 00:54:31,200 --> 00:54:34,320 Speaker 9: In Safari on a website, you're reading something, it's. 1099 00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:37,319 Speaker 10: Going to give you this really adaptively smooth refresh rate 1100 00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:40,319 Speaker 10: even to follow how fast you're scrolling. And when you're 1101 00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:43,160 Speaker 10: watching movies, it's going to match the frame rate needed 1102 00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:46,240 Speaker 10: and so in some cases it can save battery life also, 1103 00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:48,520 Speaker 10: but it looks great because you're scrolling. 1104 00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:49,800 Speaker 9: It looks great on the eyes. 1105 00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:52,440 Speaker 10: And the other great thing in addition to promotion is 1106 00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:55,000 Speaker 10: all our displays are brighter, so you can get even 1107 00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:58,240 Speaker 10: brighter content when you're outdoors, and we've added an anti 1108 00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:01,200 Speaker 10: reflective coding to reduce that glare when you're outside and 1109 00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:04,120 Speaker 10: your iPhone goes with you everywhere, and it's also three 1110 00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:08,080 Speaker 10: times better resistance to scratching, which is a great everyday benefit. 1111 00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:11,680 Speaker 1: As you can imagine, how does the average consumer decide 1112 00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:14,840 Speaker 1: between the Air and another model of the iPhone at 1113 00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:15,239 Speaker 1: this point? 1114 00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:17,360 Speaker 10: Sure, well, I think one of the easiest things to 1115 00:55:17,400 --> 00:55:20,000 Speaker 10: think about is, like I said, the iPhone Air has 1116 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:23,000 Speaker 10: that pro performance but in this thin and light design. 1117 00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:24,600 Speaker 10: And so if you go in and you pick that 1118 00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:27,279 Speaker 10: up and that really makes sense to you as the 1119 00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:29,360 Speaker 10: phone you want, that's great. It still has an advanced 1120 00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:31,840 Speaker 10: camera system on the back, and all the models this 1121 00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:34,880 Speaker 10: year have that new center stage front camera selfie. 1122 00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:36,480 Speaker 9: Experience, so that's the same across the board. 1123 00:55:36,719 --> 00:55:39,120 Speaker 10: It still has great battery life, and like I said, 1124 00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:40,160 Speaker 10: it's really durable. 1125 00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:42,479 Speaker 9: Now, if you're someone who wants the. 1126 00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:45,080 Speaker 10: Very best iPhone in the world, that would be the 1127 00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:48,799 Speaker 10: iPhone seventeen Pro or the larger iPhone seventeen Promas we're 1128 00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:53,680 Speaker 10: pushing performance, camera capabilities, battery life, everything to that very 1129 00:55:53,719 --> 00:55:56,359 Speaker 10: top level.

So that's a nice thing, 1309 01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:29,680 Speaker 1: especially if you're using your phone under any sort of 1310 01:03:29,680 --> 01:03:33,280 Speaker 1: heavy video editing or gaming stuff like that. You've got 1311 01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:35,280 Speaker 1: the brand new design, so if you like the new 1312 01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:38,480 Speaker 1: design of the phone, it's got better scratch resistance on 1313 01:03:38,520 --> 01:03:41,560 Speaker 1: the front and the back, which is nice. Let's see, 1314 01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:43,720 Speaker 1: display is brighter, so you're going to get a brighter 1315 01:03:43,720 --> 01:03:47,440 Speaker 1: display for that money. Longer battery life. So I don't 1316 01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:50,480 Speaker 1: know about your sixteen Promax, but mine the battery life 1317 01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:52,680 Speaker 1: has kind of taken a little hit in recent months, 1318 01:03:53,120 --> 01:03:56,200 Speaker 1: so I'm really hoping that the seventeen Promac is going 1319 01:03:56,240 --> 01:03:56,640 Speaker 1: to be better. 1320 01:03:56,680 --> 01:03:57,840 Speaker 2: I don't know if you notice that or not. 1321 01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:03,120 Speaker 11: Yeah, I had the battery, Like I said, I only 1322 01:04:03,120 --> 01:04:05,560 Speaker 11: got it a couple months ago. The good thing I 1323 01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:07,520 Speaker 11: do like about it is. It charges really. 1324 01:04:07,320 --> 01:04:11,000 Speaker 2: Fast, yes, and you still get that yeah, I mean. 1325 01:04:10,920 --> 01:04:12,880 Speaker 11: Look, yeah, the battery is huge to me. 1326 01:04:13,040 --> 01:04:14,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, the battery is supposed to be the best 1327 01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:19,240 Speaker 1: yet ever on the iPhone. It also has a faster 1328 01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:21,760 Speaker 1: charging because now you can use a forty WAT adapter, 1329 01:04:21,880 --> 01:04:24,560 Speaker 1: which is something that you know, many people may not 1330 01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:26,040 Speaker 1: care about, but yeah, if you're trying to get a 1331 01:04:26,040 --> 01:04:28,640 Speaker 1: faster charge, it does charge faster with a forty WAT adapter, 1332 01:04:28,760 --> 01:04:31,040 Speaker 1: but you will need a new adapter before. I think 1333 01:04:31,040 --> 01:04:33,520 Speaker 1: you need a thirty WAT. Now forty WAT for the fastest. 1334 01:04:34,560 --> 01:04:36,560 Speaker 1: You get the new camera system, which of course Apple 1335 01:04:36,680 --> 01:04:39,040 Speaker 1: is always pushing the envelope when it comes to the camera. 1336 01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:43,440 Speaker 1: So you're gonna get the eight times total optical quote 1337 01:04:43,520 --> 01:04:46,560 Speaker 1: quality zoom. And of course it takes in more light 1338 01:04:46,600 --> 01:04:50,080 Speaker 1: because it's got a bigger sensor, so that's nice. The 1339 01:04:50,120 --> 01:04:53,120 Speaker 1: front facing camera is going to be eighteen megapixels versus twelve. 1340 01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:54,640 Speaker 1: You're also going to get to take it, you know, 1341 01:04:55,120 --> 01:04:59,040 Speaker 1: vertical or horizontal. Let's see what else. The base storage 1342 01:04:59,120 --> 01:05:00,880 Speaker 1: is now two fifty six.

But they were 1400 01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:37,240 Speaker 8: asking for a service, and I wasn't sure, you know 1401 01:07:37,360 --> 01:07:40,200 Speaker 8: how lemble. 1402 01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:41,960 Speaker 2: They were No, don't do that, that's no. 1403 01:07:43,040 --> 01:07:45,840 Speaker 1: The only way that I know to find a lost 1404 01:07:45,880 --> 01:07:48,560 Speaker 1: Android is go to android dot com slash find. 1405 01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:51,920 Speaker 2: He sounds like you already did that, right, I. 1406 01:07:52,520 --> 01:07:55,160 Speaker 8: Think I did. Yeah, okay, so that I can track 1407 01:07:55,320 --> 01:07:58,080 Speaker 8: because I know I went to the Google one to 1408 01:07:58,160 --> 01:08:01,520 Speaker 8: find my phone one. So but you're saying Android, what 1409 01:08:01,560 --> 01:08:02,280 Speaker 8: was the android? 1410 01:08:02,480 --> 01:08:07,640 Speaker 1: Android dot com slash fined And you have to log 1411 01:08:07,720 --> 01:08:12,080 Speaker 1: in with you know, his account and his Google account, 1412 01:08:12,200 --> 01:08:14,240 Speaker 1: and if his phone was linked to his Google account, 1413 01:08:14,280 --> 01:08:17,080 Speaker 1: which it's an Android, it should be, you can tap 1414 01:08:17,200 --> 01:08:21,960 Speaker 1: on that phone and you will find the location. I 1415 01:08:22,040 --> 01:08:24,160 Speaker 1: just did it for my Android, and it shows exactly 1416 01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:25,000 Speaker 1: where it is right now. 1417 01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:25,920 Speaker 2: It shows that it has. 1418 01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:29,160 Speaker 1: Wireless service, the batteries at eighty two percent. You can 1419 01:08:29,160 --> 01:08:31,760 Speaker 1: play a sound, you can secure the device. You can 1420 01:08:31,800 --> 01:08:35,479 Speaker 1: factory reset it. But what do you are you do 1421 01:08:35,520 --> 01:08:36,799 Speaker 1: you think this phone was stolen? 1422 01:08:37,280 --> 01:08:39,560 Speaker 8: So if the battery was dead, do you think it 1423 01:08:39,600 --> 01:08:41,600 Speaker 8: would still be able to track it? 1424 01:08:41,600 --> 01:08:44,439 Speaker 2: It might give you the last known location. 1425 01:08:44,800 --> 01:08:47,240 Speaker 8: So these things what we're looking for, That's what we 1426 01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:48,920 Speaker 8: want to know is where was the last nine? 1427 01:08:49,240 --> 01:08:50,519 Speaker 1: Let me let me look at a phone that I 1428 01:08:50,560 --> 01:08:54,800 Speaker 1: haven't used in a long time. Let's see here, Let's 1429 01:08:54,800 --> 01:08:57,559 Speaker 1: see if it gives me this one. So I'm checking 1430 01:08:57,640 --> 01:09:00,320 Speaker 1: the old Google Pixel nine that I had, and it 1431 01:09:00,400 --> 01:09:02,920 Speaker 1: says contacting device. So I'm not sure if it's going 1432 01:09:02,960 --> 01:09:06,599 Speaker 1: to show me that last location. So that it just 1433 01:09:06,600 --> 01:09:08,320 Speaker 1: just sort of depends. I guess if the phone is 1434 01:09:08,360 --> 01:09:12,519 Speaker 1: still alive. Let's see, can you get the last Yeah, 1435 01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:14,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if you can see it's saying contacting 1436 01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:18,280 Speaker 1: device and it's taken a while. I know it's not 1437 01:09:18,320 --> 01:09:20,720 Speaker 1: going to find it because that phone is nowhere to 1438 01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:23,280 Speaker 1: be found at this point. But yeah, it would be 1439 01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:25,360 Speaker 1: ideal if they showed you the last location, but it 1440 01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:27,519 Speaker 1: may not. The other thing you can think about is 1441 01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:29,560 Speaker 1: if you had like a tile device on there or 1442 01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:32,080 Speaker 1: any other I'm trying to think of. Yeah, see it 1443 01:09:32,080 --> 01:09:35,360 Speaker 1: can't reach the device, so it sounds like it may 1444 01:09:35,400 --> 01:09:38,040 Speaker 1: not show the last known location on these things. It's 1445 01:09:38,040 --> 01:09:40,519 Speaker 1: just kind of doesn't look like it's able to do that. 1446 01:09:40,800 --> 01:09:44,639 Speaker 1: So if it's alive and battery, you might be able 1447 01:09:44,640 --> 01:09:46,920 Speaker 1: to find it. But where does he think he left 1448 01:09:46,920 --> 01:09:47,439 Speaker 1: it somewhere? 1449 01:09:48,920 --> 01:09:52,360 Speaker 8: Yeah, he thinks maybe he lost it at work, because 1450 01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:54,840 Speaker 8: we've tried calling the phone, you know, the usual call 1451 01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:57,880 Speaker 8: of the phone, and we were listening around through through 1452 01:09:57,920 --> 01:09:59,880 Speaker 8: the whole house and in the car and in the 1453 01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:03,360 Speaker 8: i mean everywhere on the property. We were listening for 1454 01:10:03,439 --> 01:10:06,800 Speaker 8: that phone and it didn't ring, and so, you know, 1455 01:10:06,880 --> 01:10:09,160 Speaker 8: he thinks it might have fallen out at work, and 1456 01:10:09,280 --> 01:10:11,760 Speaker 8: so we've been calling it over there. But you know, 1457 01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:14,360 Speaker 8: at this point, we don't know if the battery was 1458 01:10:14,439 --> 01:10:16,400 Speaker 8: dead or if it's an a location where they can't 1459 01:10:16,439 --> 01:10:17,200 Speaker 8: hear it. Bringing. 1460 01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:19,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, he did he have a tile or anything like 1461 01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:22,800 Speaker 1: that attached to that phone, right, No, Okay, say that 1462 01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:24,760 Speaker 1: could be another way or Life three sixty or some 1463 01:10:24,840 --> 01:10:27,840 Speaker 1: of these things. Yeah, I mean, that's that's a tough one. 1464 01:10:27,880 --> 01:10:30,280 Speaker 1: If you can't find it, it might be a total loss. 1465 01:10:30,320 --> 01:10:33,160 Speaker 1: But that's the best way to do at that Android 1466 01:10:33,160 --> 01:10:35,200 Speaker 1: dot Com slash fine day. I think you know, note 1467 01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:38,679 Speaker 1: to Google last location. Let's include that right That would 1468 01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:40,840 Speaker 1: help people if the battery goes dead, like you can 1469 01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:43,760 Speaker 1: still find your phone eighty eight rich one oh one 1470 01:10:43,840 --> 01:10:46,639 Speaker 1: eighty eight seven four to two four one zero one. 1471 01:10:49,600 --> 01:10:52,800 Speaker 1: Customer satisfaction, Yes, the stuff you buy? 1472 01:10:53,120 --> 01:10:54,640 Speaker 2: What do you like? What do you don't like? 1473 01:10:56,080 --> 01:11:00,559 Speaker 1: This is a new study from ACSI their Household Appliance 1474 01:11:00,560 --> 01:11:04,040 Speaker 1: and Electronics Study. I thought this was interesting, so as 1475 01:11:04,080 --> 01:11:08,200 Speaker 1: consumers care less about flashy features and more about reliable 1476 01:11:08,240 --> 01:11:11,840 Speaker 1: service when it comes to electronics and appliances, I would agree. 1477 01:11:12,080 --> 01:11:16,040 Speaker 1: I bought just bought some washer and dryer, and you know, 1478 01:11:16,400 --> 01:11:20,559 Speaker 1: my last one's lasted about ten years, maybe eleven, and 1479 01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:24,040 Speaker 1: I'm hoping the same. And really I didn't look for like, 1480 01:11:24,120 --> 01:11:25,760 Speaker 1: you know, AI and all this stuff in it, even 1481 01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:27,320 Speaker 1: though I think it has it or Wi Fi. 1482 01:11:27,880 --> 01:11:30,240 Speaker 2: But here's what the results are. 1483 01:11:30,360 --> 01:11:34,760 Speaker 1: Overall satisfaction is study TV's at eighty two, PCs at 1484 01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:38,080 Speaker 1: eighty one, appliances at eighty one, vacuums are at seventy nine. 1485 01:11:38,840 --> 01:11:41,880 Speaker 1: The study finds customer service and reliability now matter as 1486 01:11:42,040 --> 01:11:44,960 Speaker 1: much as innovation. I would one hundred percent agree with 1487 01:11:45,000 --> 01:11:47,760 Speaker 1: that I want there to be customer service and I 1488 01:11:47,800 --> 01:11:49,519 Speaker 1: want the thing to be reliable. I don't care if 1489 01:11:49,520 --> 01:11:52,120 Speaker 1: it's got every feature known to mankind. If it doesn't 1490 01:11:52,160 --> 01:11:54,439 Speaker 1: work and you can't get help when it doesn't work, 1491 01:11:54,640 --> 01:11:55,639 Speaker 1: then what's the point. 1492 01:11:56,360 --> 01:11:57,479 Speaker 2: So here are the brands. 1493 01:11:57,600 --> 01:12:02,000 Speaker 1: We've got TVs, PCs, appliances, and vacummes, You're ready televisions. 1494 01:12:02,200 --> 01:12:05,479 Speaker 1: Samsung still leads at an eighty three score. I'm guessing 1495 01:12:05,479 --> 01:12:08,000 Speaker 1: these are out of one hundred, followed by high Sense 1496 01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:11,720 Speaker 1: and Visio at eighty two. TCL jumps up the most. 1497 01:12:11,720 --> 01:12:14,400 Speaker 1: They're up three percent. I've got a high Sense and 1498 01:12:14,479 --> 01:12:18,280 Speaker 1: I absolutely love it. And I know Samsung's are good. 1499 01:12:18,320 --> 01:12:21,479 Speaker 1: I mean all these TVs are great, TCL is great, Samsung, 1500 01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:26,519 Speaker 1: I mean these are all solid, solid brands. PCs, Apple 1501 01:12:26,600 --> 01:12:29,000 Speaker 1: slipped a little bit, HP took the top spot at 1502 01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:33,720 Speaker 1: eighty three. Dell actually gained on the strength of its aipcs. 1503 01:12:34,240 --> 01:12:37,200 Speaker 1: Desktops rate the highest to eighty four, tablets rate the 1504 01:12:37,200 --> 01:12:41,280 Speaker 1: lowest at seventy seven. That's interesting. I'm guessing the tablets 1505 01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:45,120 Speaker 1: rate the lowest because of all the Android tablets out 1506 01:12:45,120 --> 01:12:47,559 Speaker 1: there that are very disappointing, and I think the because 1507 01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:49,320 Speaker 1: the iPad. There's no way if it was just iPad 1508 01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:52,120 Speaker 1: that would be that disappointing. All right, appliances, here's the 1509 01:12:52,120 --> 01:12:58,760 Speaker 1: big one. Samsung and Whirlpool tie for first at eighty two. LG, Bosh, 1510 01:12:59,000 --> 01:13:02,840 Speaker 1: electro Lux, and Hire are close behind. Bosh makes some 1511 01:13:02,840 --> 01:13:05,240 Speaker 1: of the biggest gains. I know people love the Bosh brand. 1512 01:13:05,760 --> 01:13:07,680 Speaker 1: I went with LG for mine because that's what I 1513 01:13:07,720 --> 01:13:09,599 Speaker 1: had before and they worked, and so I just got 1514 01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:12,040 Speaker 1: them again. I literally just searched for my model number 1515 01:13:12,240 --> 01:13:15,120 Speaker 1: and got the new version like ten years later. And 1516 01:13:15,160 --> 01:13:17,080 Speaker 1: we don't like them that much. So it's not that 1517 01:13:17,080 --> 01:13:20,200 Speaker 1: I don't like them, they just they're like too modern now. 1518 01:13:20,240 --> 01:13:22,200 Speaker 1: Like I guess we're so used to the old school machine. 1519 01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:24,320 Speaker 1: Now we're like, this one's too modern, which is kind 1520 01:13:24,320 --> 01:13:26,120 Speaker 1: of funny coming from me. But it's mostly my wife 1521 01:13:26,120 --> 01:13:29,320 Speaker 1: that is complaining about it. She does most of the 1522 01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:32,280 Speaker 1: laundryes she does more laundry than I do. Let's put 1523 01:13:32,280 --> 01:13:37,680 Speaker 1: it that way. Vacuums Samsung number one at eighty two, 1524 01:13:38,040 --> 01:13:41,720 Speaker 1: Shark number two at eighty one, Bissel and Dyson at 1525 01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:45,040 Speaker 1: eighty and then Rumba at seventy eight. I will tell 1526 01:13:45,080 --> 01:13:48,840 Speaker 1: you we bought a vacuum. I would never ever get 1527 01:13:48,840 --> 01:13:51,719 Speaker 1: this vacuum. What a waste of money. None of those brands. 1528 01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:53,600 Speaker 1: It was another brand. I'm not even gonna mention the 1529 01:13:53,640 --> 01:13:55,519 Speaker 1: name because I don't want to slam them, but they were. 1530 01:13:56,280 --> 01:13:59,080 Speaker 1: It's the biggest joke of a vacuum I've ever used 1531 01:13:59,080 --> 01:13:59,559 Speaker 1: in my life. 1532 01:14:00,040 --> 01:14:02,080 Speaker 2: I'm not kidding. It's just so bad. 1533 01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:05,679 Speaker 1: And it came highly recommended from one of those review sites. 1534 01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:09,720 Speaker 1: I won't mention which one either, but the thing is, 1535 01:14:09,760 --> 01:14:14,080 Speaker 1: consumers want durable products, better repair service, and responsive support, 1536 01:14:14,439 --> 01:14:15,839 Speaker 1: not just bells and whistles. 1537 01:14:16,600 --> 01:14:20,280 Speaker 2: Let's go to Jerry in Mission va Ho. You're on 1538 01:14:20,360 --> 01:14:22,240 Speaker 2: with Rich Hi. 1539 01:14:22,280 --> 01:14:23,320 Speaker 6: Rich Hi. 1540 01:14:24,320 --> 01:14:29,160 Speaker 12: I have an old tablet that died. It was an 1541 01:14:29,240 --> 01:14:34,000 Speaker 12: A A seven and the battery is dead and there's 1542 01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:37,280 Speaker 12: no bringing it back. So I ended up buying the 1543 01:14:37,320 --> 01:14:41,800 Speaker 12: Galaxy A nine plus. And I know that they're the 1544 01:14:41,840 --> 01:14:44,760 Speaker 12: bottom of the line of products, but that's okay. I 1545 01:14:44,800 --> 01:14:45,920 Speaker 12: still love the Galaxy. 1546 01:14:46,200 --> 01:14:48,439 Speaker 2: Okay, Well about the bottom of the line, this is 1547 01:14:48,439 --> 01:14:50,240 Speaker 2: not it. This is fine. I mean it's you know, 1548 01:14:50,320 --> 01:14:52,240 Speaker 2: it's a basic tablet, but it's fine. 1549 01:14:52,600 --> 01:14:56,200 Speaker 12: They work great. Yeah, I love I'm a true fan. Okay, 1550 01:14:56,240 --> 01:15:00,120 Speaker 12: So what happened is, since my old A seven and 1551 01:15:00,280 --> 01:15:04,840 Speaker 12: is completely dead, how do I transfer my old WhatsApp 1552 01:15:05,120 --> 01:15:10,320 Speaker 12: to the Galaxy A nine. I haven't been successful because 1553 01:15:10,320 --> 01:15:13,120 Speaker 12: I'm using an old phone number that I no longer use. 1554 01:15:13,200 --> 01:15:16,760 Speaker 12: It's invalid. I can't get it to work. They want 1555 01:15:16,760 --> 01:15:19,720 Speaker 12: me to use a QR code to transfer it. 1556 01:15:20,080 --> 01:15:21,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're not going to be able to. 1557 01:15:22,120 --> 01:15:22,439 Speaker 11: You're not. 1558 01:15:22,680 --> 01:15:25,720 Speaker 1: You're not gonna be able to because you know what, WhatsApp, 1559 01:15:25,760 --> 01:15:29,000 Speaker 1: everything's encrypted, and so unless you had a backup of 1560 01:15:29,080 --> 01:15:33,719 Speaker 1: this on a separate cloud like Google Drive or something 1561 01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:36,160 Speaker 1: like that, you're not going to be able to decrypt 1562 01:15:36,240 --> 01:15:41,080 Speaker 1: these messages without your previous device because as far as 1563 01:15:41,080 --> 01:15:44,719 Speaker 1: I know, because WhatsApp is very very strict with security, 1564 01:15:44,720 --> 01:15:47,120 Speaker 1: and that's what people love about it is that it's 1565 01:15:47,160 --> 01:15:52,080 Speaker 1: not easily broken into. It's not people can't read your messages. 1566 01:15:52,120 --> 01:15:54,960 Speaker 1: WhatsApp can't read your messages. So it's called end to 1567 01:15:55,080 --> 01:15:58,520 Speaker 1: end encrypted, which means there is a lot of security. 1568 01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:01,840 Speaker 1: And it's not like a tipic cool messaging app where 1569 01:16:01,840 --> 01:16:05,160 Speaker 1: everything is stored on their servers and they just download 1570 01:16:05,200 --> 01:16:07,479 Speaker 1: that back to your device. A lot of this is 1571 01:16:07,560 --> 01:16:11,479 Speaker 1: kept in a separate place that is super secure, and 1572 01:16:11,600 --> 01:16:13,920 Speaker 1: only you have the key to that, and by not 1573 01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:17,040 Speaker 1: having that other device, you don't have the key anymore, 1574 01:16:17,240 --> 01:16:19,479 Speaker 1: and so therefore you can't really get access to these. 1575 01:16:19,520 --> 01:16:22,559 Speaker 1: Now I could be wrong about all that, but I 1576 01:16:22,560 --> 01:16:24,880 Speaker 1: don't think I am, and so I don't. I don't 1577 01:16:25,040 --> 01:16:27,360 Speaker 1: know if there's another way to get these messages. Do 1578 01:16:27,400 --> 01:16:29,960 Speaker 1: you need those messages from before you do? 1579 01:16:30,160 --> 01:16:32,240 Speaker 12: Well? I don't need the mess Well, the pictures are 1580 01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:34,880 Speaker 12: on there there. What I really needed for is to 1581 01:16:34,920 --> 01:16:37,200 Speaker 12: communicate with people while I'm in Europe to here in 1582 01:16:37,240 --> 01:16:40,160 Speaker 12: the US. So should I open up a new WhatsApp account? 1583 01:16:40,400 --> 01:16:41,000 Speaker 2: Yeah? I would? 1584 01:16:41,080 --> 01:16:44,080 Speaker 1: I mean the thing is what so you can't log 1585 01:16:44,120 --> 01:16:45,960 Speaker 1: in at all because it wants to verify you on. 1586 01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:46,559 Speaker 2: An old device? 1587 01:16:47,320 --> 01:16:48,960 Speaker 12: Correct, And they did, and you. 1588 01:16:48,880 --> 01:16:52,400 Speaker 1: Don't have access And there's no small text that says verify. 1589 01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:55,120 Speaker 2: Another way there is. 1590 01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:57,320 Speaker 12: And it looks like I tried it whatever they wanted, 1591 01:16:57,360 --> 01:16:59,960 Speaker 12: I couldn't. I couldn't do it. I'm going to keep trying. 1592 01:17:00,320 --> 01:17:01,880 Speaker 12: I thought maybe that was an easier way. 1593 01:17:01,960 --> 01:17:04,519 Speaker 2: Now, have you tried logging in on your phone? 1594 01:17:06,040 --> 01:17:07,280 Speaker 12: It's not on. 1595 01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:07,719 Speaker 11: On my phone. 1596 01:17:07,760 --> 01:17:09,439 Speaker 12: This is all strictly on my tablet. 1597 01:17:09,560 --> 01:17:14,320 Speaker 1: Well, right, But usually the way the tablet, it's try, okay, 1598 01:17:14,479 --> 01:17:16,960 Speaker 1: try logging in on your phone using your information and 1599 01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:17,920 Speaker 1: see if that helps. 1600 01:17:18,280 --> 01:17:21,840 Speaker 2: Because it's a different phone number. Well oh, you're saying 1601 01:17:21,840 --> 01:17:23,839 Speaker 2: it's a different number. Is completely different. 1602 01:17:23,920 --> 01:17:26,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, look at the end of the day, if 1603 01:17:26,560 --> 01:17:30,240 Speaker 1: you're if you're okay with losing the previous chats, then 1604 01:17:30,400 --> 01:17:32,560 Speaker 1: I would just go onto your phone. Here's what I 1605 01:17:32,600 --> 01:17:34,400 Speaker 1: would do. I would go onto your phone or your 1606 01:17:34,439 --> 01:17:36,800 Speaker 1: tablet and sign up fresh with that phone number that 1607 01:17:36,840 --> 01:17:39,400 Speaker 1: you have access to. And then once you do that, 1608 01:17:40,240 --> 01:17:41,680 Speaker 1: I would go into the settings. 1609 01:17:42,439 --> 01:17:43,320 Speaker 2: And you can't. 1610 01:17:43,360 --> 01:17:47,160 Speaker 1: Let's see it says chats. Okay, Now the thing is 1611 01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:51,360 Speaker 1: about the chats. Uh, there's settings, and I'm looking at 1612 01:17:51,360 --> 01:17:54,559 Speaker 1: the iPhone and it says, let's see here, move chats 1613 01:17:54,560 --> 01:17:57,679 Speaker 1: to Android, transfer chats to iPhone, chat backup. 1614 01:17:57,920 --> 01:18:00,679 Speaker 2: So there's a chat backup and that's. 1615 01:18:00,560 --> 01:18:02,360 Speaker 1: What you want to look at because that's where it 1616 01:18:02,479 --> 01:18:05,320 Speaker 1: stores all of your chats in the cloud. And if 1617 01:18:05,320 --> 01:18:08,080 Speaker 1: you're on iPhone, it uses iCloud. I think on Android 1618 01:18:08,120 --> 01:18:11,800 Speaker 1: it uses I think it uses Google Drive. I got 1619 01:18:11,840 --> 01:18:14,559 Speaker 1: to look at that. But yeah, WhatsApp is very is 1620 01:18:14,680 --> 01:18:17,719 Speaker 1: very specific when it comes to security and how many 1621 01:18:18,080 --> 01:18:20,400 Speaker 1: devices you can have logged in and how easy it 1622 01:18:20,439 --> 01:18:23,320 Speaker 1: is to log in and where your messages are. I'm 1623 01:18:23,400 --> 01:18:27,040 Speaker 1: just looking at you know, the just linking devices is 1624 01:18:27,120 --> 01:18:31,080 Speaker 1: tricky on there because it all it's it's very very secure, 1625 01:18:31,320 --> 01:18:33,000 Speaker 1: and that's the main thing is. This is why I 1626 01:18:33,040 --> 01:18:35,519 Speaker 1: didn't use WhatsApp for a long time, because it was 1627 01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:37,840 Speaker 1: tough to use it on multiple devices. That's gotten a 1628 01:18:37,840 --> 01:18:40,200 Speaker 1: lot better now you can link up to four different 1629 01:18:40,200 --> 01:18:44,559 Speaker 1: devices in addition to your primary phone. But it's very 1630 01:18:44,680 --> 01:18:47,479 Speaker 1: very secure, and that's why you're having some trouble there. 1631 01:18:47,680 --> 01:18:49,800 Speaker 1: But I would just go in and set up with 1632 01:18:49,800 --> 01:18:51,880 Speaker 1: a fresh phone number. You've got that number anyway, That's 1633 01:18:51,880 --> 01:18:55,120 Speaker 1: what people know now probably, so that's. 1634 01:18:54,920 --> 01:18:55,439 Speaker 3: What I would do. 1635 01:18:56,960 --> 01:18:59,640 Speaker 12: Number. That's not my new cell phone. I have a 1636 01:18:59,680 --> 01:19:01,200 Speaker 12: Shell phone and that's not that number. 1637 01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:05,120 Speaker 1: Wait, so you have hold on which which phone number 1638 01:19:05,120 --> 01:19:06,839 Speaker 1: you're going to use to log in for the new account. 1639 01:19:07,360 --> 01:19:09,200 Speaker 12: Well, you told me I need to start from scratch, 1640 01:19:09,240 --> 01:19:10,960 Speaker 12: so I have to use my new cell phone. 1641 01:19:10,800 --> 01:19:13,719 Speaker 1: Number and is the old But you don't have access 1642 01:19:13,760 --> 01:19:16,960 Speaker 1: to the old number, right, No, that's yeah, So that's 1643 01:19:17,000 --> 01:19:18,639 Speaker 1: going to be a problem anyway, because you're not You're 1644 01:19:18,680 --> 01:19:20,200 Speaker 1: you're going to find it tough to log in no 1645 01:19:20,200 --> 01:19:23,400 Speaker 1: matter what. So I would just start up fresh with 1646 01:19:23,439 --> 01:19:25,919 Speaker 1: your new number and make sure you save all the information. 1647 01:19:25,960 --> 01:19:28,400 Speaker 1: And once you set it up fresh, set up the 1648 01:19:28,479 --> 01:19:30,760 Speaker 1: backup and make sure that you've got things backed up 1649 01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:31,800 Speaker 1: to where you want them to be. 1650 01:19:32,160 --> 01:19:33,760 Speaker 2: And then that way you won't lose your chats in 1651 01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:34,200 Speaker 2: the future. 1652 01:19:35,200 --> 01:19:37,559 Speaker 12: Thank you so much. I don't want to lose touch 1653 01:19:37,560 --> 01:19:39,720 Speaker 12: with my all my buddies here in the US. So 1654 01:19:39,760 --> 01:19:40,719 Speaker 12: thank you, all right. 1655 01:19:40,760 --> 01:19:43,679 Speaker 2: Have a great trip, thank you, thank you so much. 1656 01:19:43,760 --> 01:19:46,880 Speaker 2: Rich all right, Jerry really appreciate it. Thank you, thank 1657 01:19:46,960 --> 01:19:48,400 Speaker 2: you all right. 1658 01:19:48,520 --> 01:19:51,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, WhatsApp is uh. This is why back in the 1659 01:19:51,760 --> 01:19:55,559 Speaker 1: day I really used UH. I switched. I. I started 1660 01:19:55,560 --> 01:19:58,600 Speaker 1: to use for my group chats Telegram because it was 1661 01:19:58,720 --> 01:20:01,240 Speaker 1: easier to log in on a whole bunch of devices, 1662 01:20:01,880 --> 01:20:03,960 Speaker 1: and I knew because I test a ton of phones 1663 01:20:04,400 --> 01:20:07,559 Speaker 1: that I needed that functionality. Now, I think WhatsApp is 1664 01:20:07,680 --> 01:20:11,639 Speaker 1: way more secure than pretty much every The only more 1665 01:20:11,680 --> 01:20:15,679 Speaker 1: secure messaging app is Signal, and the difference is Signal 1666 01:20:15,720 --> 01:20:20,200 Speaker 1: does not collect any information or much less information about you, 1667 01:20:20,880 --> 01:20:24,000 Speaker 1: whereas if you think about it, WhatsApp is owned by Meta, 1668 01:20:24,040 --> 01:20:27,040 Speaker 1: which is Facebook Their whole game is data. So while 1669 01:20:27,080 --> 01:20:30,000 Speaker 1: they keep your messages very private, they are collecting some 1670 01:20:30,240 --> 01:20:34,439 Speaker 1: other metadata around you know, maybe your device or you 1671 01:20:34,439 --> 01:20:36,200 Speaker 1: know where you're logging in from that kind of stuff. 1672 01:20:36,320 --> 01:20:38,720 Speaker 1: Like there's just a little bit more data collection, not 1673 01:20:38,800 --> 01:20:41,120 Speaker 1: about your messages. No one's looking at your messages. And 1674 01:20:41,120 --> 01:20:43,439 Speaker 1: that's what people love about WhatsApp. It is end to 1675 01:20:43,600 --> 01:20:47,080 Speaker 1: end encrypted, which means it is highly secure. No matter 1676 01:20:47,120 --> 01:20:50,920 Speaker 1: who you're messaging with, nobody can see that message except 1677 01:20:50,920 --> 01:20:54,240 Speaker 1: for you and the receiving party. No one can intercept it. 1678 01:20:54,600 --> 01:20:57,240 Speaker 1: No one can read it, not even meta, not your phone, 1679 01:20:57,560 --> 01:21:00,240 Speaker 1: not the other person's phone. In outside app, they can't 1680 01:21:00,240 --> 01:21:04,000 Speaker 1: tap into that. So that's why people like WhatsApp. All right, 1681 01:21:04,040 --> 01:21:06,720 Speaker 1: eighty eight rich one O one eighty eight seven four 1682 01:21:06,720 --> 01:21:09,479 Speaker 1: to two four one zero one. But once again, if 1683 01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:12,720 Speaker 1: you're using WhatsApp, go into your settings and make sure 1684 01:21:12,760 --> 01:21:14,880 Speaker 1: you have your chat backup set up the way you 1685 01:21:14,920 --> 01:21:17,439 Speaker 1: want it, Otherwise you're gonna lose those messages when you 1686 01:21:17,439 --> 01:21:19,439 Speaker 1: switch to you in your device. All right, coming up, 1687 01:21:19,439 --> 01:21:22,080 Speaker 1: we'll tell you how Spotify is adding a better audio 1688 01:21:22,120 --> 01:21:25,360 Speaker 1: and how Gmail is helping you track your packages. 1689 01:21:28,960 --> 01:21:31,920 Speaker 2: Let's go to Steve in Lake Forrest. You're on with Rich? 1690 01:21:32,479 --> 01:21:33,479 Speaker 13: Hey, Rich, how you doing? 1691 01:21:33,720 --> 01:21:35,280 Speaker 2: I'm doing? Well, what's up? 1692 01:21:35,960 --> 01:21:41,080 Speaker 13: So I shoot video for a vertive prey rescue group 1693 01:21:42,040 --> 01:21:48,240 Speaker 13: and so we rehabilitate hawks and falcons and ls birds 1694 01:21:48,320 --> 01:21:50,799 Speaker 13: like that, and then we release them back into the wild. 1695 01:21:50,920 --> 01:21:56,519 Speaker 13: So I'm using IPO sixteen pro with it's got a 1696 01:21:56,560 --> 01:22:03,400 Speaker 13: five XU zoom on it. But as the bird flies away, yeah, 1697 01:22:03,520 --> 01:22:07,120 Speaker 13: not able to track it for very long. So I 1698 01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:11,320 Speaker 13: was just wondering, is there any thing on the Internet, 1699 01:22:11,760 --> 01:22:16,640 Speaker 13: as far as artificial intelligence goes, that could follow the 1700 01:22:16,680 --> 01:22:19,439 Speaker 13: bird pass the limitations of the camera. 1701 01:22:20,160 --> 01:22:22,080 Speaker 2: Hmm, that's a good question. 1702 01:22:22,600 --> 01:22:25,639 Speaker 1: I mean, the problem with that is that birds are 1703 01:22:25,680 --> 01:22:29,960 Speaker 1: flying pretty fast and pretty far, very quickly, and so 1704 01:22:30,240 --> 01:22:32,880 Speaker 1: unless you had some sort of tracker on that bird 1705 01:22:32,920 --> 01:22:35,400 Speaker 1: that would relay to the camera like to track it, 1706 01:22:35,960 --> 01:22:39,559 Speaker 1: that's going to be really tough. How far How long 1707 01:22:39,640 --> 01:22:43,439 Speaker 1: are you shooting these birds for like with this phone, Well, from. 1708 01:22:43,240 --> 01:22:47,000 Speaker 13: The moment they get released to the moment they're out 1709 01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:50,960 Speaker 13: of sight. It varies, but it could be anywhere from 1710 01:22:52,120 --> 01:22:56,080 Speaker 13: seven eight seconds to maybe twenty thirty seconds. If the 1711 01:22:56,080 --> 01:23:01,200 Speaker 13: bird decides to fly up and write thermals or something 1712 01:23:01,280 --> 01:23:04,439 Speaker 13: like that. You can you can track a little bit longer. 1713 01:23:05,240 --> 01:23:07,680 Speaker 1: Well, I mean look the new the latest phones. I 1714 01:23:07,680 --> 01:23:10,320 Speaker 1: mean you've got the zoom on, you know. And the 1715 01:23:10,320 --> 01:23:12,960 Speaker 1: problem is, once you get really to the to far zoom, 1716 01:23:13,520 --> 01:23:15,960 Speaker 1: it's really tough to keep that bird in the frame. 1717 01:23:16,520 --> 01:23:19,600 Speaker 1: So it's not like it's not gonna be easy to 1718 01:23:19,640 --> 01:23:22,240 Speaker 1: do that. So no matter what you're at, you said 1719 01:23:22,240 --> 01:23:27,400 Speaker 1: you're on the iPhone fifteen, you said sixteen, okay, sixteen pro, 1720 01:23:27,520 --> 01:23:31,960 Speaker 1: So you're talking your maximum zoom on that is five times, right, 1721 01:23:32,520 --> 01:23:35,439 Speaker 1: I mean optical. If you want to go digital, you 1722 01:23:35,439 --> 01:23:37,479 Speaker 1: can go up to twenty five times on that. 1723 01:23:38,360 --> 01:23:40,160 Speaker 13: You know. I just got to sixteen growth, so I 1724 01:23:40,160 --> 01:23:41,240 Speaker 13: haven't tried to do that yet. 1725 01:23:41,240 --> 01:23:43,200 Speaker 1: Actually, you know what, let me look because the I'm 1726 01:23:43,200 --> 01:23:46,920 Speaker 1: gonna look on this one, okay, oh okay, yeah, you're not. No, 1727 01:23:47,040 --> 01:23:49,559 Speaker 1: you're not gonna be able to go up as far 1728 01:23:49,800 --> 01:23:53,160 Speaker 1: with the with the video camera. Yeah, because the photo 1729 01:23:53,240 --> 01:23:56,280 Speaker 1: you can go up to a higher zoom range than 1730 01:23:56,320 --> 01:23:59,280 Speaker 1: the video and I'm looking at the pixel here, let's 1731 01:23:59,280 --> 01:24:01,680 Speaker 1: see where they go up. On video you can go 1732 01:24:01,760 --> 01:24:04,639 Speaker 1: up to twenty x zoom. So it really and then 1733 01:24:05,120 --> 01:24:08,320 Speaker 1: I don't have the Samsung with me today. But the Samsung, 1734 01:24:08,360 --> 01:24:10,280 Speaker 1: you know, has one hundred times zoom on the on 1735 01:24:10,360 --> 01:24:13,960 Speaker 1: the camera. I mean, look, I think that the bottom line, 1736 01:24:14,200 --> 01:24:16,360 Speaker 1: if you're gonna go, if you're gonna stick with the iPhone, 1737 01:24:16,800 --> 01:24:18,680 Speaker 1: I think that the new iPhone is gonna give you 1738 01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:23,599 Speaker 1: more zoom because it's got a longer range lens. I guess, 1739 01:24:23,960 --> 01:24:26,120 Speaker 1: so you're gonna probably get a higher zoom rate on 1740 01:24:26,160 --> 01:24:28,559 Speaker 1: the video there. The problem is keeping the bird in 1741 01:24:28,560 --> 01:24:30,639 Speaker 1: the picture, I think is going to be the biggest challenge, 1742 01:24:30,800 --> 01:24:34,479 Speaker 1: especially at the distance that you're doing that. When it 1743 01:24:34,520 --> 01:24:37,720 Speaker 1: comes to AI, if you're talking about AI photos, then 1744 01:24:37,760 --> 01:24:40,639 Speaker 1: the pixel would be the best because the pixel can 1745 01:24:40,680 --> 01:24:44,680 Speaker 1: take a photo even at a hundred times and do 1746 01:24:44,760 --> 01:24:48,040 Speaker 1: what's called AI it's called super red zoom, and it's 1747 01:24:48,120 --> 01:24:51,320 Speaker 1: just incredible. It will take that picture and just polish 1748 01:24:51,439 --> 01:24:53,880 Speaker 1: it with AI and you won't believe how good it looks. 1749 01:24:54,320 --> 01:24:56,679 Speaker 1: You should see if anyone around you has the Pixel 1750 01:24:56,720 --> 01:24:58,960 Speaker 1: ten pro and ask them to take a picture of 1751 01:24:58,960 --> 01:25:01,920 Speaker 1: these birds from far away, and it's quite impressive what 1752 01:25:01,960 --> 01:25:02,439 Speaker 1: it can do. 1753 01:25:02,960 --> 01:25:04,200 Speaker 2: But that's not the video camera. 1754 01:25:05,160 --> 01:25:08,480 Speaker 1: But the pixel does have a feature called video Boost, 1755 01:25:08,760 --> 01:25:11,920 Speaker 1: which could work in this situation because video boost will 1756 01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:15,960 Speaker 1: kind of stabilize your video and enhance the color, so 1757 01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:19,320 Speaker 1: that could work. But overall, I think when it comes 1758 01:25:19,320 --> 01:25:22,439 Speaker 1: to video on a smartphone, the iPhones do have the 1759 01:25:22,479 --> 01:25:25,759 Speaker 1: best video. So I think for like everyday use and ease, 1760 01:25:25,800 --> 01:25:27,679 Speaker 1: I think the iPhone's still going to be your best bet. 1761 01:25:28,000 --> 01:25:31,760 Speaker 1: You could probably get slightly better zoom out of the 1762 01:25:31,760 --> 01:25:34,080 Speaker 1: new iPhone seventeen than you can out of the sixteen. 1763 01:25:34,160 --> 01:25:36,000 Speaker 1: So if you want to try for that when it 1764 01:25:36,000 --> 01:25:38,200 Speaker 1: comes out, I don't have the exact numbers right now 1765 01:25:38,240 --> 01:25:44,439 Speaker 1: because there's yeah, I gotta look that up, but that's 1766 01:25:44,479 --> 01:25:46,160 Speaker 1: probably your best bet. But I don't think there's any 1767 01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:49,080 Speaker 1: AI happening there. There's not really any AI that's going 1768 01:25:49,160 --> 01:25:51,400 Speaker 1: to enhance it. And then if you go with like 1769 01:25:51,439 --> 01:25:54,040 Speaker 1: a standard camera, you know, like a camera on a tripod, 1770 01:25:54,520 --> 01:25:56,400 Speaker 1: there are some cameras that you can get that might 1771 01:25:56,400 --> 01:25:59,040 Speaker 1: be better, but it's just gonna be It depends what 1772 01:25:59,080 --> 01:26:00,720 Speaker 1: you're trying to do. But you know, you can get 1773 01:26:00,760 --> 01:26:02,880 Speaker 1: a long lens, you can get zoom, you can you know, 1774 01:26:02,960 --> 01:26:04,479 Speaker 1: do all that stuff, but that's going to get you 1775 01:26:04,840 --> 01:26:07,719 Speaker 1: into the thousands of dollars when you talk about that equipment. 1776 01:26:07,840 --> 01:26:10,640 Speaker 1: So Steve I wish there was an easy answer for you. 1777 01:26:10,680 --> 01:26:12,720 Speaker 1: But I love what you're doing for sure. I think 1778 01:26:12,720 --> 01:26:15,000 Speaker 1: it sounds awesome and I'd love to I'd love to 1779 01:26:15,000 --> 01:26:17,439 Speaker 1: come out there at the Pixel ten.

I'm always testing cameras, 1782 01:26:22,320 --> 01:26:24,160 Speaker 1: you know, so maybe I should come out there and 1783 01:26:24,439 --> 01:26:26,000 Speaker 1: test some of these cameras that I've got and we 1784 01:26:26,040 --> 01:26:27,840 Speaker 1: can see what they look like. Let's let's do that. 1785 01:26:27,920 --> 01:26:31,719 Speaker 1: Email me at rich on tech just hello at richontech 1786 01:26:31,760 --> 01:26:35,280 Speaker 1: dot TV. Thanks for the call today. Appreciate it. Gmail 1787 01:26:36,320 --> 01:26:39,440 Speaker 1: is adding a new feature to help you track your packages. 1788 01:26:40,160 --> 01:26:42,720 Speaker 1: So this is a new purchase tracking view. It takes 1789 01:26:42,760 --> 01:26:45,000 Speaker 1: all your receipts and delivery updates and puts them into 1790 01:26:45,040 --> 01:26:48,439 Speaker 1: one simple list. It'll still show those packages that are 1791 01:26:48,520 --> 01:26:50,760 Speaker 1: arriving with within twenty four hours at the top of 1792 01:26:50,800 --> 01:26:53,559 Speaker 1: your inbox. I personally don't really care for that feature, 1793 01:26:53,600 --> 01:26:55,920 Speaker 1: but this is in the left hand menu. It's not 1794 01:26:55,960 --> 01:26:58,439 Speaker 1: there just yet perhaps, but if you go to your 1795 01:26:58,600 --> 01:27:02,760 Speaker 1: Gmail left hand menu, you'll see it'll say purchases and 1796 01:27:02,800 --> 01:27:04,559 Speaker 1: you can see all your purchases in one place. 1797 01:27:04,960 --> 01:27:07,080 Speaker 2: Coming up we're going to talk travel insurance and how 1798 01:27:07,160 --> 01:27:08,120 Speaker 2: AI is changing that. 1799 01:27:13,040 --> 01:27:16,800 Speaker 1: If you have Spotify, they are adding lossless audio. Yeah, 1800 01:27:16,800 --> 01:27:18,720 Speaker 1: this is something that's been on the works for a 1801 01:27:18,760 --> 01:27:21,680 Speaker 1: long time, so it's rolling out now. You will know 1802 01:27:21,680 --> 01:27:25,160 Speaker 1: when you have it if you're a premium subscriber of Spotify. 1803 01:27:25,800 --> 01:27:29,599 Speaker 1: Lossless basically means it higher audio quality, So it's gonna 1804 01:27:29,600 --> 01:27:33,640 Speaker 1: stream up to twenty four bit forty four flack. I 1805 01:27:33,640 --> 01:27:35,320 Speaker 1: don't even know how you say this, kill a Hurtz 1806 01:27:36,520 --> 01:27:39,080 Speaker 1: higher quality than the standard, not the highest on the market. 1807 01:27:39,120 --> 01:27:42,920 Speaker 1: But here's the deal. Bluetooth can't handle lossless audio in 1808 01:27:43,120 --> 01:27:45,000 Speaker 1: for the most part, so you're gonna have to have 1809 01:27:45,040 --> 01:27:48,320 Speaker 1: wired headphones or use speakers. So it's like all these 1810 01:27:48,320 --> 01:27:50,080 Speaker 1: people have been waiting for this, but you're not even 1811 01:27:50,040 --> 01:27:51,880 Speaker 1: be able to hear the difference on your on your 1812 01:27:51,920 --> 01:27:57,360 Speaker 1: Bluetooth earbuts, Apple Music, Amazon Title, they all have better 1813 01:27:57,560 --> 01:28:00,120 Speaker 1: audio quality than Spotify up to twenty four bit at 1814 01:28:00,880 --> 01:28:02,280 Speaker 1: kill Hurtz Deezer. 1815 01:28:03,040 --> 01:28:04,519 Speaker 2: Deezer is a little bit lower. 1816 01:28:05,080 --> 01:28:08,519 Speaker 1: Spotify does not support spatial audio, Apple does. 1817 01:28:08,560 --> 01:28:09,360 Speaker 2: Amazon does. 1818 01:28:10,120 --> 01:28:13,280 Speaker 1: Premium users will see a lossless indicator in now playing 1819 01:28:13,320 --> 01:28:15,920 Speaker 1: when you have it enabled. It's rolling out gradually. You'll 1820 01:28:15,920 --> 01:28:18,599 Speaker 1: get a notification once it's available in your app. If 1821 01:28:18,640 --> 01:28:20,000 Speaker 1: you want to turn it on, you can go to 1822 01:28:20,040 --> 01:28:25,360 Speaker 1: your profile icon settings in Privacy media quality and you 1823 01:28:25,360 --> 01:28:26,479 Speaker 1: can decide where you want. 1824 01:28:26,320 --> 01:28:27,759 Speaker 2: To enable lossless audio. 1825 01:28:27,800 --> 01:28:29,600 Speaker 1: I'll enable it even though I can't listen to it 1826 01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:31,960 Speaker 1: for the most part, but hey, I want the highest quality, 1827 01:28:32,560 --> 01:28:32,960 Speaker 1: all right? 1828 01:28:33,320 --> 01:28:33,800 Speaker 2: Joining me now? 1829 01:28:33,840 --> 01:28:37,200 Speaker 1: I thought this was an interesting conversation because I've I've 1830 01:28:37,240 --> 01:28:41,360 Speaker 1: purchased travel insurance in the past. It's a pretty straightforward process. 1831 01:28:41,400 --> 01:28:43,360 Speaker 1: Hopefully you never have to use it, but it's good 1832 01:28:43,360 --> 01:28:46,960 Speaker 1: to have. Daniel Green is with FAY Travel Insurance, the 1833 01:28:47,000 --> 01:28:51,280 Speaker 1: website with Fay dot com, and they're sort of bringing 1834 01:28:51,320 --> 01:28:54,400 Speaker 1: travel insurance into the modern world. Daniel, did I get 1835 01:28:54,439 --> 01:28:54,760 Speaker 1: that right? 1836 01:28:55,640 --> 01:28:57,559 Speaker 3: Absolutely? Rich, Thanks very much for having me. 1837 01:28:57,800 --> 01:29:01,200 Speaker 1: So, you know, travel insurance and some people think maybe 1838 01:29:01,200 --> 01:29:03,599 Speaker 1: their credit card has it, maybe they don't need it. 1839 01:29:04,320 --> 01:29:07,479 Speaker 2: What is you know, when do you need travel insurance? 1840 01:29:07,520 --> 01:29:07,960 Speaker 2: Number one? 1841 01:29:09,760 --> 01:29:12,160 Speaker 14: So, I think there are three times when people need 1842 01:29:12,200 --> 01:29:16,280 Speaker 14: travel insurance. The most and the first, which we think 1843 01:29:16,320 --> 01:29:19,040 Speaker 14: about all the time, is what happens if you get 1844 01:29:19,080 --> 01:29:21,200 Speaker 14: sick on a trip. But I think one of the 1845 01:29:21,200 --> 01:29:23,880 Speaker 14: consequences that a lot of people don't think about is 1846 01:29:24,360 --> 01:29:25,439 Speaker 14: what if you get sick and. 1847 01:29:25,400 --> 01:29:26,439 Speaker 3: Then you need to get home. 1848 01:29:26,960 --> 01:29:30,200 Speaker 14: Sometimes traveling back with a broken leg means that that 1849 01:29:30,400 --> 01:29:33,360 Speaker 14: economy class flight or that Spirit Airlines ticket might not 1850 01:29:33,400 --> 01:29:35,960 Speaker 14: be enough to get you back. And sometimes people find 1851 01:29:36,000 --> 01:29:38,960 Speaker 14: themselves in scenarios where they actually need a flying air 1852 01:29:39,000 --> 01:29:41,240 Speaker 14: ambulance to get you home, and those things can run 1853 01:29:41,240 --> 01:29:44,240 Speaker 14: into the hundreds of thousands of dollars really quickly. 1854 01:29:44,320 --> 01:29:47,800 Speaker 3: So that's the first category. The second category is you 1855 01:29:47,920 --> 01:29:49,280 Speaker 3: land at an airport. 1856 01:29:48,880 --> 01:29:51,719 Speaker 14: And your bags. Don't It happens to you all the time. 1857 01:29:52,320 --> 01:29:55,000 Speaker 14: I think one of the biggest things people don't think 1858 01:29:55,040 --> 01:29:57,640 Speaker 14: about is the best thing that you can get at 1859 01:29:57,680 --> 01:30:00,640 Speaker 14: that point in time is not necessarily my back for 1860 01:30:00,720 --> 01:30:03,519 Speaker 14: all of your stuff that can happen in time. It's 1861 01:30:03,640 --> 01:30:05,719 Speaker 14: just a few hundred dollars so that you can run 1862 01:30:05,800 --> 01:30:09,280 Speaker 14: to even a walmart, get a toothbrush, change of clothes, 1863 01:30:09,320 --> 01:30:12,439 Speaker 14: something to look after you until everything else arrives. 1864 01:30:12,960 --> 01:30:16,760 Speaker 3: And the third category is all the little things. 1865 01:30:17,080 --> 01:30:19,280 Speaker 14: All the big things that prevent you from going on 1866 01:30:19,320 --> 01:30:22,120 Speaker 14: your trip in the first place. In this day and 1867 01:30:22,200 --> 01:30:26,160 Speaker 14: age and with inflation, some of these vacations are costing 1868 01:30:26,680 --> 01:30:29,160 Speaker 14: a small fortune. People are saving up, people are putting 1869 01:30:29,160 --> 01:30:32,439 Speaker 14: real money into them, and if something goes wrong at 1870 01:30:32,439 --> 01:30:36,439 Speaker 14: the last minute before you're supposed to travel, most providers 1871 01:30:36,479 --> 01:30:39,040 Speaker 14: won't give you money back. Airlines are saying no refunds 1872 01:30:39,080 --> 01:30:41,400 Speaker 14: if you're the one choosing not to travel. Funny how 1873 01:30:41,400 --> 01:30:44,200 Speaker 14: it works the other way around and having insurance step 1874 01:30:44,200 --> 01:30:47,599 Speaker 14: in and make you whole really can protect that investment 1875 01:30:47,640 --> 01:30:49,160 Speaker 14: you've made in that trip of that vacation. 1876 01:30:50,080 --> 01:30:53,680 Speaker 1: So I've purchased travel insurance once before I did an 1877 01:30:53,720 --> 01:30:57,320 Speaker 1: international trip to Japan and they said you should probably 1878 01:30:57,320 --> 01:31:00,120 Speaker 1: get travel insurance. It was a pretty straightforward process and 1879 01:31:00,160 --> 01:31:02,160 Speaker 1: it was a lot less expensive than I thought it 1880 01:31:02,280 --> 01:31:05,479 Speaker 1: was or would be. So how are you different? Like 1881 01:31:05,520 --> 01:31:07,599 Speaker 1: what is Faye doing? That's differently? I know you guys 1882 01:31:07,600 --> 01:31:10,680 Speaker 1: have an app. What's different than sort of the traditional 1883 01:31:10,760 --> 01:31:12,879 Speaker 1: go online and find travel insurance. 1884 01:31:13,680 --> 01:31:15,960 Speaker 3: So firstly, you can buy it through our app. You 1885 01:31:16,000 --> 01:31:17,520 Speaker 3: can also buy it through our website. 1886 01:31:18,000 --> 01:31:20,559 Speaker 14: I think a lot of people make the mistake of 1887 01:31:20,640 --> 01:31:23,759 Speaker 14: either assuming that they have travel insurance via their credit 1888 01:31:23,760 --> 01:31:26,880 Speaker 14: card but not actually looking at what that means, or 1889 01:31:26,960 --> 01:31:29,280 Speaker 14: checking a box at the end of the purchase process 1890 01:31:29,439 --> 01:31:33,200 Speaker 14: on airline website. Sometimes that only covers the airline ticket 1891 01:31:33,240 --> 01:31:36,320 Speaker 14: and not all the other things that can happen. But 1892 01:31:36,640 --> 01:31:38,679 Speaker 14: Fay tries to do two things to make your life 1893 01:31:38,920 --> 01:31:43,000 Speaker 14: significantly better. The first is we provide value whether you 1894 01:31:43,160 --> 01:31:45,960 Speaker 14: do or don't have a claim. As soon as you've 1895 01:31:45,960 --> 01:31:48,479 Speaker 14: purchased insurance with us, we give you the option to 1896 01:31:48,640 --> 01:31:51,880 Speaker 14: set up a virtual credit card in Apple Pay or 1897 01:31:51,920 --> 01:31:54,400 Speaker 14: Google Pay so that we're able to either send you 1898 01:31:54,439 --> 01:31:56,559 Speaker 14: money on your trip or even pay for things on 1899 01:31:56,600 --> 01:31:59,719 Speaker 14: your behalf. You have a claim, we use the opportune 1900 01:31:59,720 --> 01:32:02,400 Speaker 14: to start tracking your flights and putting information in about 1901 01:32:02,439 --> 01:32:02,960 Speaker 14: your travel. 1902 01:32:03,040 --> 01:32:04,040 Speaker 3: And one of the best. 1903 01:32:03,880 --> 01:32:06,120 Speaker 14: Things we can do there is we can reach out 1904 01:32:06,120 --> 01:32:07,599 Speaker 14: and tell you have a claim before you. 1905 01:32:07,560 --> 01:32:08,120 Speaker 3: Know about it. 1906 01:32:08,200 --> 01:32:11,320 Speaker 14: Oh wow, we detect that your flight is significantly delayed 1907 01:32:11,400 --> 01:32:12,080 Speaker 14: or canceled. 1908 01:32:12,640 --> 01:32:14,240 Speaker 3: Obviously terms and conditions apply. 1909 01:32:14,720 --> 01:32:17,320 Speaker 14: We can be proactive in trying to get you back 1910 01:32:17,360 --> 01:32:21,200 Speaker 14: on track and getting money out to you. 1911 01:32:20,240 --> 01:32:22,760 Speaker 3: Pretty quickly, and I think that makes a huge. 1912 01:32:22,520 --> 01:32:27,160 Speaker 14: Difference than having a PDF somewhere in your inbox, trying 1913 01:32:27,200 --> 01:32:29,559 Speaker 14: to remember who you brought insurance from when you get 1914 01:32:29,560 --> 01:32:33,040 Speaker 14: home and looking for all the receipts. We're all traveling 1915 01:32:33,080 --> 01:32:37,000 Speaker 14: with our phones, we're using it every day of our travel. 1916 01:32:37,560 --> 01:32:39,719 Speaker 3: Being able to already have your. 1917 01:32:39,600 --> 01:32:41,960 Speaker 14: Phone in hand and take care of the insurance in 1918 01:32:42,000 --> 01:32:43,719 Speaker 14: the moment where you need it makes. 1919 01:32:43,560 --> 01:32:46,559 Speaker 3: A huge difference to your peace of mind and your time. 1920 01:32:47,520 --> 01:32:50,880 Speaker 1: So you're really you're positioning almost as like a travel companion. 1921 01:32:50,880 --> 01:32:53,240 Speaker 1: You don't want someone to just like you said, buy 1922 01:32:53,280 --> 01:32:55,240 Speaker 1: this file it away and if you ever need it, 1923 01:32:55,280 --> 01:32:57,640 Speaker 1: look again. You're saying like, hey, get this app on 1924 01:32:57,680 --> 01:33:01,120 Speaker 1: your phone now, and it's your travel companion. Not only 1925 01:33:01,160 --> 01:33:02,680 Speaker 1: are you going to get your insurance through here, but 1926 01:33:02,720 --> 01:33:04,280 Speaker 1: you're also going to be able to track your flights. 1927 01:33:04,360 --> 01:33:06,880 Speaker 1: You can get these reimbursements. Like you said, I love 1928 01:33:06,920 --> 01:33:09,320 Speaker 1: the idea that you can add this card to your 1929 01:33:09,400 --> 01:33:12,360 Speaker 1: Apple paste, that you can send that information or that 1930 01:33:12,920 --> 01:33:15,160 Speaker 1: I guess reimbursement claim money instantly. 1931 01:33:15,920 --> 01:33:18,080 Speaker 2: Is that done? Has that been done before? 1932 01:33:19,360 --> 01:33:19,479 Speaker 3: So? 1933 01:33:19,600 --> 01:33:22,599 Speaker 14: I do think some of these concepts have been around 1934 01:33:22,600 --> 01:33:26,360 Speaker 14: for a while outside of the United States, but in 1935 01:33:26,439 --> 01:33:30,480 Speaker 14: America we've gotten used to for far too long sax machines, 1936 01:33:30,680 --> 01:33:31,240 Speaker 14: checks in the. 1937 01:33:31,200 --> 01:33:35,360 Speaker 3: Mail, and really old school ways of doing business. 1938 01:33:35,600 --> 01:33:37,360 Speaker 14: And I think we're one of the first to make 1939 01:33:37,439 --> 01:33:41,439 Speaker 14: this technology that is a part of our everyday life 1940 01:33:41,439 --> 01:33:44,080 Speaker 14: in almost every other aspect, So why can't it be 1941 01:33:44,120 --> 01:33:44,960 Speaker 14: part of our insurance? 1942 01:33:45,560 --> 01:33:48,000 Speaker 1: And what kind of stuff does travel insurance cover? I 1943 01:33:48,040 --> 01:33:51,160 Speaker 1: mean you mentioned like you know, medical this and that, 1944 01:33:51,280 --> 01:33:54,200 Speaker 1: like what you know? Do I need this for domestic 1945 01:33:54,280 --> 01:33:54,640 Speaker 1: do I not? 1946 01:33:55,760 --> 01:33:57,200 Speaker 3: So I think it's a good idea to have it 1947 01:33:57,240 --> 01:33:58,120 Speaker 3: whenever you travel. 1948 01:33:58,320 --> 01:34:01,200 Speaker 14: I think even when we talk about Medica all most 1949 01:34:01,280 --> 01:34:04,960 Speaker 14: people have health insurance that the minute they get out 1950 01:34:04,960 --> 01:34:09,040 Speaker 14: of state, there's all of a sudden copays, out of network, fees, 1951 01:34:09,120 --> 01:34:11,439 Speaker 14: other things, and travel insurance can help bridge that gap. 1952 01:34:12,520 --> 01:34:15,839 Speaker 14: But really there's three categories which we spoke about before. 1953 01:34:16,439 --> 01:34:18,599 Speaker 3: There's your health, there's. 1954 01:34:18,400 --> 01:34:21,360 Speaker 14: Your stuff, and there's the investment you made in the 1955 01:34:21,400 --> 01:34:24,439 Speaker 14: trip in the first place. And I think one of 1956 01:34:24,479 --> 01:34:27,600 Speaker 14: the additional benefits that a lot of people don't realize 1957 01:34:27,640 --> 01:34:30,920 Speaker 14: can be found in travel insurance is many policies and 1958 01:34:30,960 --> 01:34:33,800 Speaker 14: many states allow for the idea of trip in convenience 1959 01:34:33,880 --> 01:34:38,679 Speaker 14: or traveling convenience payments, and those are situations where something 1960 01:34:38,680 --> 01:34:41,640 Speaker 14: out of your control has gone wrong and you'll just 1961 01:34:41,680 --> 01:34:43,519 Speaker 14: receive a little bit of money to make it better 1962 01:34:43,640 --> 01:34:47,439 Speaker 14: without necessarily needing any additional receipts. So a lot of 1963 01:34:47,479 --> 01:34:50,280 Speaker 14: insurance works that you need to pay for things and 1964 01:34:50,320 --> 01:34:53,000 Speaker 14: then get the money claimed back. Or we can approve 1965 01:34:53,080 --> 01:34:55,280 Speaker 14: certain categories of things that you can spend money on, 1966 01:34:55,400 --> 01:34:59,040 Speaker 14: will pay for them with traveling convenience. If your flight 1967 01:34:59,160 --> 01:35:01,120 Speaker 14: is delayed for a certain number of hours depending on 1968 01:35:01,120 --> 01:35:03,559 Speaker 14: the state, you might just receive two hundred dollars sent 1969 01:35:03,640 --> 01:35:07,439 Speaker 14: straight to your to that Fay credit card that you 1970 01:35:07,479 --> 01:35:10,120 Speaker 14: can spend on anything you want at the airport, just 1971 01:35:10,160 --> 01:35:12,799 Speaker 14: to take the thing out of how things have gone. 1972 01:35:12,640 --> 01:35:13,280 Speaker 3: Wrong in your day. 1973 01:35:13,720 --> 01:35:15,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, the reason I brought you on the 1974 01:35:15,080 --> 01:35:17,000 Speaker 1: show is because I like when things are done in 1975 01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:19,559 Speaker 1: a modern way. And I'm looking at the app and 1976 01:35:19,600 --> 01:35:22,240 Speaker 1: it just it seems like it's a it's much more 1977 01:35:22,360 --> 01:35:25,680 Speaker 1: modern than the system that I use to purchase my insurance, 1978 01:35:25,720 --> 01:35:28,560 Speaker 1: which this this is what I like. This is the 1979 01:35:28,640 --> 01:35:30,240 Speaker 1: kind of stuff that I like, where it's all done 1980 01:35:30,240 --> 01:35:32,120 Speaker 1: in the app. It looks like you can place your 1981 01:35:32,160 --> 01:35:34,679 Speaker 1: claims through the app, you can chat through the app, 1982 01:35:34,880 --> 01:35:38,320 Speaker 1: and I even noticed you you offer e sims as well. 1983 01:35:38,520 --> 01:35:40,800 Speaker 3: So it's good for it's good for us, and it's 1984 01:35:40,800 --> 01:35:42,000 Speaker 3: good for you as the customer. 1985 01:35:42,200 --> 01:35:46,679 Speaker 14: So by by having connectivity, if something goes wrong, we'd 1986 01:35:46,760 --> 01:35:49,559 Speaker 14: much rather be the ones to help you get on 1987 01:35:49,600 --> 01:35:51,280 Speaker 14: your way and take care of you in the moment, 1988 01:35:51,400 --> 01:35:55,320 Speaker 14: not find out, let's say, three weeks after you get home, 1989 01:35:55,400 --> 01:35:56,800 Speaker 14: that you face the calamity. 1990 01:35:57,080 --> 01:35:58,760 Speaker 3: It's much easier to say, how can we help? 1991 01:35:58,840 --> 01:35:59,000 Speaker 6: Then? 1992 01:35:59,240 --> 01:36:02,960 Speaker 14: Oh no, that's terrible.

I recommend them a lot, 2064 01:39:27,640 --> 01:39:29,719 Speaker 1: but they've got some good competition this year from Apple. 2065 01:39:30,400 --> 01:39:33,520 Speaker 1: All right, let's open up the feedback.

It saved me fifty dollars a month. 2070 01:39:44,840 --> 01:39:48,240 Speaker 1: Sean writes in PC Mover from lap Link is an 2071 01:39:48,240 --> 01:39:50,639 Speaker 1: app that can move everything from one PC to another, 2072 01:39:50,680 --> 01:39:54,519 Speaker 1: including installed applications, but he says he's never personally used it, 2073 01:39:54,560 --> 01:39:57,000 Speaker 1: but it's been around for years and Microsoft even recommends it, 2074 01:39:57,080 --> 01:39:59,160 Speaker 1: so something to try out. I think that's in response 2075 01:39:59,200 --> 01:40:00,920 Speaker 1: to the question we had about the person trying to 2076 01:40:01,040 --> 01:40:04,680 Speaker 1: use their old programs on a new computer. Danny and 2077 01:40:04,800 --> 01:40:07,320 Speaker 1: Charlotte writes in the person trying to use Office twenty 2078 01:40:07,320 --> 01:40:10,000 Speaker 1: sixteen is probably running a thirty two bit version, while 2079 01:40:10,040 --> 01:40:12,840 Speaker 1: newer PCs are sixty four bit, so that won't work, 2080 01:40:13,160 --> 01:40:15,600 Speaker 1: although there is an outside chance it could run in 2081 01:40:15,720 --> 01:40:19,960 Speaker 1: legacy mode. Think you can right click the shortcut on 2082 01:40:20,000 --> 01:40:23,040 Speaker 1: your desktop and run it in that legacy mode. Garan 2083 01:40:23,080 --> 01:40:26,160 Speaker 1: Sacramento gives another vote to LapLink to move programs and 2084 01:40:26,160 --> 01:40:27,160 Speaker 1: settings to a new PC. 2085 01:40:27,360 --> 01:40:31,719 Speaker 2: I've used it with limited success. Bonnie says. We're wondering 2086 01:40:31,760 --> 01:40:33,080 Speaker 2: if a three D printer can help. 2087 01:40:33,000 --> 01:40:37,120 Speaker 1: Us recreate cabinet drawer pulls since the manufacturers gone and 2088 01:40:37,160 --> 01:40:41,120 Speaker 1: a machine shop can't fix them. Probably, I mean you 2089 01:40:41,120 --> 01:40:42,439 Speaker 1: could three D print it. You'd have to take a 2090 01:40:42,479 --> 01:40:45,320 Speaker 1: three D scan first, and then you'd have to three 2091 01:40:45,400 --> 01:40:47,360 Speaker 1: D print it. So you'd have to find someone that 2092 01:40:47,360 --> 01:40:49,240 Speaker 1: can do that. Find someone with a three D printer. 2093 01:40:49,520 --> 01:40:52,240 Speaker 1: Maybe go to a local school, like a you know, 2094 01:40:52,920 --> 01:40:54,880 Speaker 1: one of those community colleges or something with like some 2095 01:40:54,880 --> 01:40:57,519 Speaker 1: sort of three D printing class, Or you can check 2096 01:40:57,520 --> 01:41:01,479 Speaker 1: eBay for the original. I'm the blind caller who asked 2097 01:41:01,479 --> 01:41:04,040 Speaker 1: about the metaglasses and straws. I'm a Denver native and 2098 01:41:04,080 --> 01:41:06,320 Speaker 1: I know the city better than most. I used to 2099 01:41:06,360 --> 01:41:08,479 Speaker 1: be a dispatcher at Quest and would love to someday 2100 01:41:08,520 --> 01:41:11,120 Speaker 1: show you around. My mom was full blood of Italian, 2101 01:41:11,160 --> 01:41:13,240 Speaker 1: so I know the best pizza, and there's a greasy 2102 01:41:13,240 --> 01:41:16,120 Speaker 1: spoon in the suburbs with great pork chops. I also 2103 01:41:16,120 --> 01:41:18,200 Speaker 1: want to say your newsletter is very informative and I 2104 01:41:18,240 --> 01:41:20,800 Speaker 1: really enjoyed hearing your kids and your mom on the broadcast. 2105 01:41:20,840 --> 01:41:23,479 Speaker 2: Well thank you, Russ. If I'm ever in Denver again, I'll 2106 01:41:23,680 --> 01:41:24,200 Speaker 2: ring you up. 2107 01:41:24,880 --> 01:41:26,840 Speaker 1: Donna writes in I'm trying to create a slideshow with 2108 01:41:26,840 --> 01:41:29,320 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty photos with Apple Music, but iMovie 2109 01:41:29,360 --> 01:41:30,360 Speaker 1: has been really difficult. 2110 01:41:30,800 --> 01:41:31,880 Speaker 2: I need it done fast. 2111 01:41:33,560 --> 01:41:36,520 Speaker 1: I said you should try cap cut or Adobe Rush 2112 01:41:36,680 --> 01:41:40,040 Speaker 1: because they're easier for this kind of project. Canva also 2113 01:41:40,120 --> 01:41:43,080 Speaker 1: has a slideshow tool. You can try that. My tip 2114 01:41:43,160 --> 01:41:45,720 Speaker 1: after editing for twenty five years or so, lay out 2115 01:41:45,720 --> 01:41:49,000 Speaker 1: the music first, then drop the photos on top to 2116 01:41:49,080 --> 01:41:51,920 Speaker 1: help you time it out and save time and frustration. 2117 01:41:53,439 --> 01:41:55,759 Speaker 1: Clovis writes in last week of caller said their friend 2118 01:41:55,800 --> 01:41:57,840 Speaker 1: had multiple phones hacked, and you said that really wasn't 2119 01:41:57,880 --> 01:41:59,360 Speaker 1: possible without a third party app. 2120 01:41:59,360 --> 01:42:00,719 Speaker 2: That's not necessarily true. 2121 01:42:00,920 --> 01:42:03,280 Speaker 1: Routers and computers don't have the same level of encryption 2122 01:42:03,320 --> 01:42:05,960 Speaker 1: as phones, and if a router is compromised, hackers could 2123 01:42:06,000 --> 01:42:09,920 Speaker 1: potentially access other device on the network, including installed including 2124 01:42:09,960 --> 01:42:14,439 Speaker 1: installing malware. Yes there's always that chance. Yes, that is 2125 01:42:14,479 --> 01:42:18,000 Speaker 1: a possibility. I don't think it was probable in this circumstance. 2126 01:42:18,800 --> 01:42:22,080 Speaker 1: Melissa writes in regarding hotel shampoo, many of us, especially women, 2127 01:42:22,160 --> 01:42:25,760 Speaker 1: need sulfate free shampoo because of expensive hair treatment, so 2128 01:42:25,800 --> 01:42:27,720 Speaker 1: we have to bring our own since most hotels don't 2129 01:42:27,720 --> 01:42:32,599 Speaker 1: stock sulfate free options. Producer Adam is in today for Bobo. 2130 01:42:32,680 --> 01:42:36,040 Speaker 1: He's got quite the lock of locks of hair, so 2131 01:42:36,560 --> 01:42:40,719 Speaker 1: maybe he uses sul fight free. Amy in Paris writes 2132 01:42:40,720 --> 01:42:43,280 Speaker 1: in I'm a third grade teacher starting my twenty seventh year. 2133 01:42:43,360 --> 01:42:45,920 Speaker 1: Good for you, Amy, Oh my gosh. I used to 2134 01:42:46,000 --> 01:42:48,640 Speaker 1: use an app called Doceri to take a picture of 2135 01:42:48,680 --> 01:42:51,040 Speaker 1: a worksheet and write on my iPad while projecting it 2136 01:42:51,080 --> 01:42:53,400 Speaker 1: for students. But the app is gone and my school 2137 01:42:53,400 --> 01:42:56,519 Speaker 1: doesn't allow Apple devices. Apple TV won't work. I'm looking 2138 01:42:56,520 --> 01:42:58,040 Speaker 1: for alternatives so I don't have to sit at my 2139 01:42:58,080 --> 01:43:02,479 Speaker 1: desk with a document camera. Check out annotate dot net, 2140 01:43:02,880 --> 01:43:05,760 Speaker 1: and then there's an app called Reflector. But if you 2141 01:43:05,840 --> 01:43:08,800 Speaker 1: know an app, email me Hello at richon tech dot TV. 2142 01:43:08,920 --> 01:43:12,439 Speaker 1: Let's help out. Amy in Paris. What works for you teachers? 2143 01:43:13,720 --> 01:43:17,840 Speaker 1: Let's see here. Romaine in Greensboro, North Carolina rights and 2144 01:43:17,880 --> 01:43:20,000 Speaker 1: I thought my Facebook was hacked because I kept getting 2145 01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:22,400 Speaker 1: a login alerts from New Jersey and New York, even 2146 01:43:22,400 --> 01:43:26,759 Speaker 1: after changing my password multiple times. Turns out the issue 2147 01:43:26,800 --> 01:43:29,559 Speaker 1: was my VPN through McAfee. I turn it off just 2148 01:43:29,560 --> 01:43:32,599 Speaker 1: before signing on. There's no problem. I enjoy the show. 2149 01:43:32,800 --> 01:43:36,280 Speaker 1: Ah always Yeah. If you're having a problem ad blockers 2150 01:43:36,280 --> 01:43:39,080 Speaker 1: and VPNs, turn them off. Nine times out of ten. 2151 01:43:39,439 --> 01:43:42,680 Speaker 1: Your AD blocker or your VPN is keeping you from 2152 01:43:42,680 --> 01:43:46,320 Speaker 1: being able to do something. Joseph in Saint Louis writes 2153 01:43:46,320 --> 01:43:48,519 Speaker 1: in I listened to the podcast weekly during my ninety 2154 01:43:48,520 --> 01:43:51,080 Speaker 1: minute walks and really enjoy your travel tips. It's critical 2155 01:43:51,160 --> 01:43:53,880 Speaker 1: to take a picture of the odometer when picking up 2156 01:43:53,920 --> 01:43:56,680 Speaker 1: and dropping off rental cars. For the second time in 2157 01:43:56,720 --> 01:43:59,519 Speaker 1: two years, Budget build us for damage on a different rental. 2158 01:44:00,000 --> 01:44:02,360 Speaker 1: In our case, the damage was logged at a certain number, 2159 01:44:02,560 --> 01:44:04,840 Speaker 1: but our rental was at another number. Maybe they should 2160 01:44:04,880 --> 01:44:08,400 Speaker 1: use AI to extract the odometer reading from photos. Interesting 2161 01:44:09,680 --> 01:44:12,559 Speaker 1: Jackie writes in, I'm glad you covered Assurance Mobile trade 2162 01:44:12,560 --> 01:44:15,080 Speaker 1: in findings, but I want to clarify one point. The 2163 01:44:15,120 --> 01:44:18,360 Speaker 1: sixty percent increase was in the value returned to consumers, 2164 01:44:18,360 --> 01:44:21,560 Speaker 1: not the volume of devices turned in. This highlights the 2165 01:44:21,720 --> 01:44:25,880 Speaker 1: strong financial potential in the trade in market right now. 2166 01:44:26,080 --> 01:44:29,759 Speaker 1: Thank you Jackie for clarifying that. Jim and Cedar Grove, 2167 01:44:29,800 --> 01:44:31,559 Speaker 1: New Jersey, I know where that is, writes in I'm 2168 01:44:31,560 --> 01:44:34,200 Speaker 1: still using quick in twenty thirteen to balance my checkbook. 2169 01:44:34,200 --> 01:44:36,840 Speaker 1: I'm surprised it still works. I've been searching for an 2170 01:44:36,880 --> 01:44:38,639 Speaker 1: open source replacement, but I'm not. 2171 01:44:38,600 --> 01:44:39,320 Speaker 2: Sure what's safe. 2172 01:44:39,360 --> 01:44:42,400 Speaker 1: I'd prefer free, but i'd also consider something with a 2173 01:44:42,439 --> 01:44:48,679 Speaker 1: small purchase price. I would suggest checking out new Cash GnuCash. 2174 01:44:49,200 --> 01:44:52,719 Speaker 1: It's a popular open source option for personal finance tracking. 2175 01:44:52,960 --> 01:44:54,840 Speaker 1: I have not personally used it, but it is the 2176 01:44:54,880 --> 01:44:59,160 Speaker 1: popular choice. I personally love Monarch Money. If you have 2177 01:44:59,200 --> 01:45:01,880 Speaker 1: not tested that, tried out. It is paid, but it 2178 01:45:01,960 --> 01:45:04,080 Speaker 1: is incredible. I don't know if it can balance your checkbook, 2179 01:45:04,360 --> 01:45:08,200 Speaker 1: but it is really really great. Michael finally writes in 2180 01:45:08,240 --> 01:45:10,560 Speaker 1: on your show, you said FE no longer stands for 2181 01:45:10,680 --> 01:45:13,800 Speaker 1: fan edition, but I just watched Samsung's announcement, and they 2182 01:45:13,800 --> 01:45:17,559 Speaker 1: still call it Fan Edition.
