WEBVTT - Apple's New iPhones: First Impressions

0:00:04.519 --> 0:00:07.520
<v Speaker 1>Not one, but three new iPhones. What's going on. I'm

0:00:07.560 --> 0:00:10.600
<v Speaker 1>rich Demiro. This is rich on Tech. Apple held it's

0:00:10.680 --> 0:00:13.640
<v Speaker 1>yearly iPhone event today in Kooper Tino, and I was there.

0:00:13.960 --> 0:00:16.440
<v Speaker 1>The company got right down to business. They didn't really

0:00:16.480 --> 0:00:19.720
<v Speaker 1>do much housekeeping or give many updates on various product lines,

0:00:20.040 --> 0:00:22.320
<v Speaker 1>except to say that they are about to ship their

0:00:22.360 --> 0:00:25.840
<v Speaker 1>two billionth iOS device. And they said that the Apple

0:00:25.880 --> 0:00:28.800
<v Speaker 1>Watch is the number one watch in the world. And

0:00:28.960 --> 0:00:32.559
<v Speaker 1>they also started this presentation with the Apple Watch. I'll

0:00:32.600 --> 0:00:34.800
<v Speaker 1>have more on that in a future podcast, but let's

0:00:34.880 --> 0:00:38.280
<v Speaker 1>break down what's new with iPhone. There are three new

0:00:38.320 --> 0:00:40.839
<v Speaker 1>models of the iPhone. Let's start with these successors to

0:00:40.920 --> 0:00:44.159
<v Speaker 1>the iPhone ten, which are called the iPhone ten S

0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:48.440
<v Speaker 1>and the iPhone tens Max. Yep, PEPSI had it first.

0:00:48.520 --> 0:00:51.680
<v Speaker 1>Remember that highly caffeinated cola that came in a black can.

0:00:51.800 --> 0:00:54.120
<v Speaker 1>Let's go over those two versions of the iPhone ten S.

0:00:54.160 --> 0:00:56.920
<v Speaker 1>The first is nearly identical to the iPhone ten in

0:00:57.000 --> 0:00:59.960
<v Speaker 1>size and look. It has a five point eight inch screen,

0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:03.960
<v Speaker 1>but the iPhone tens Max has a six point five

0:01:04.000 --> 0:01:06.520
<v Speaker 1>inch screen, which is the largest ever on an iPhone.

0:01:06.600 --> 0:01:09.000
<v Speaker 1>But here's the thing, it's not a bigger phone than

0:01:09.000 --> 0:01:12.320
<v Speaker 1>the iPhone eight plus. It's basically the same size, it's

0:01:12.400 --> 0:01:14.919
<v Speaker 1>just that this time the screen takes up the entire

0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:17.960
<v Speaker 1>front of the face. There are no bezels, no home button,

0:01:18.000 --> 0:01:20.720
<v Speaker 1>but yes, there is still that notch. The screens on

0:01:20.840 --> 0:01:23.760
<v Speaker 1>both of these high end devices are Apple's very best

0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:26.880
<v Speaker 1>o lead displays. They look great. They're very brilliant, very bright.

0:01:27.480 --> 0:01:29.720
<v Speaker 1>Now we move inside the phones. They have a similar

0:01:29.760 --> 0:01:34.160
<v Speaker 1>camera setup as before, with dual twelve megapixel cameras. Nothing's

0:01:34.200 --> 0:01:36.080
<v Speaker 1>been improved really as far as I can tell, on

0:01:36.120 --> 0:01:38.440
<v Speaker 1>the front facing camera, which is kind of a bummer

0:01:38.480 --> 0:01:41.200
<v Speaker 1>since iPhone takes some of the worst front facing shots

0:01:41.240 --> 0:01:43.760
<v Speaker 1>in low light. But what can you do. Cameras now

0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:46.319
<v Speaker 1>have a feature called smart HDR, which I really like.

0:01:46.480 --> 0:01:49.760
<v Speaker 1>It blends information from a bunch of frames all at once,

0:01:50.200 --> 0:01:53.000
<v Speaker 1>so this gives you a really nice shot using information

0:01:53.080 --> 0:01:55.760
<v Speaker 1>that the camera gets from all different aspects of what

0:01:55.800 --> 0:01:57.720
<v Speaker 1>you take a picture of. It kind of sounds like

0:01:57.760 --> 0:01:59.720
<v Speaker 1>what Google has been doing with the pixel, but we're

0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:02.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna wait to see how good Apples tech is compared

0:02:02.080 --> 0:02:04.639
<v Speaker 1>to Google's. Once we get one of these phones in hand,

0:02:04.920 --> 0:02:07.840
<v Speaker 1>the pixel is still in my opinion the king of

0:02:07.920 --> 0:02:10.200
<v Speaker 1>smartphone cameras. The pictures that come out of that thing

0:02:10.280 --> 0:02:13.880
<v Speaker 1>are just amazing and you literally have to do zero work. Now.

0:02:13.919 --> 0:02:16.800
<v Speaker 1>Portrait mode is still represented on these cameras on the

0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:19.560
<v Speaker 1>iPhone ten S, but there is a new trick. You

0:02:19.600 --> 0:02:22.480
<v Speaker 1>can now adjust the depth of field even after you

0:02:22.520 --> 0:02:24.840
<v Speaker 1>take a photo. So there's a little slider in the

0:02:24.960 --> 0:02:27.480
<v Speaker 1>edit function and you can slide it up or down

0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:30.640
<v Speaker 1>to make the background blurrier or less blurry. And yes,

0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:33.440
<v Speaker 1>Samsung has had this feature for several phone models, but

0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:36.680
<v Speaker 1>it's new to Apple and it's really cool. After that,

0:02:36.760 --> 0:02:39.600
<v Speaker 1>you have a new A twelve bionic chip inside these phones.

0:02:39.720 --> 0:02:43.280
<v Speaker 1>The processor can handle more transactions at once. Apple says

0:02:43.280 --> 0:02:46.480
<v Speaker 1>it can help open apps thirty percent faster. Plus it

0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:49.359
<v Speaker 1>can now support up to five hundred and twelve gigabytes

0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:51.720
<v Speaker 1>of on board storage. I'll talk more about that in

0:02:51.760 --> 0:02:55.120
<v Speaker 1>a second. Battery life is improved on both of these models.

0:02:55.160 --> 0:02:58.720
<v Speaker 1>The iPhone ten S has thirty minutes longer. iPhone tens

0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:02.160
<v Speaker 1>Max has the biggest battery they ever put in an iPhone,

0:03:02.440 --> 0:03:04.320
<v Speaker 1>although they did not say just how big it is,

0:03:04.639 --> 0:03:06.359
<v Speaker 1>but it does offer up to an hour and a

0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:09.600
<v Speaker 1>half extra time on the phone. The phones also have

0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:13.000
<v Speaker 1>Gigabit Class LTE. Now this is something that Samsung has

0:03:13.040 --> 0:03:16.440
<v Speaker 1>been touting on their devices, so now Apple is in

0:03:16.480 --> 0:03:18.600
<v Speaker 1>line with those and you can take advantage of T

0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:22.520
<v Speaker 1>Mobile's improved six hundred megahertz spectrum, so that's kind of cool.

0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:25.680
<v Speaker 1>There's also this really neat dual sim functionality, and this

0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:28.720
<v Speaker 1>is made possible through the use of an e SIM. See,

0:03:28.720 --> 0:03:30.560
<v Speaker 1>you pop your regular SIM in, but there's also an

0:03:30.600 --> 0:03:33.000
<v Speaker 1>e SIM inside, and that means you can have two

0:03:33.080 --> 0:03:35.880
<v Speaker 1>lines on one device. So if you carry a work

0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:38.440
<v Speaker 1>and a personal phone, you might be able to consolidate

0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:41.920
<v Speaker 1>them into one iPhone ten S both lines ring you

0:03:42.000 --> 0:03:44.200
<v Speaker 1>can send text from both lines, and Apple has done

0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:46.240
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of stuff with software to make it as

0:03:46.240 --> 0:03:48.520
<v Speaker 1>easy as possible for folks. Because this is kind of

0:03:48.520 --> 0:03:51.240
<v Speaker 1>a foreign concept here in the US, some phones have

0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:54.800
<v Speaker 1>had it, but other phones, especially outside the US, have

0:03:54.840 --> 0:03:56.960
<v Speaker 1>had it for a while. Now, now let's talk pricing

0:03:57.000 --> 0:03:59.200
<v Speaker 1>for the ten s. It starts at nine hundred ninety

0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:02.480
<v Speaker 1>nine dollars for the sixty four gig model, eleven hundred

0:04:02.520 --> 0:04:04.520
<v Speaker 1>and fifty dollars for the two hundred and fifty six

0:04:04.640 --> 0:04:07.840
<v Speaker 1>gigabyte model, and thirteen hundred and fifty dollars for the

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:10.880
<v Speaker 1>five hundred and twelve gigabyte model. But if we go

0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:12.960
<v Speaker 1>down the line, Apple is still kind of playing these

0:04:12.960 --> 0:04:15.000
<v Speaker 1>little pricing games when it comes to the price and

0:04:15.040 --> 0:04:17.640
<v Speaker 1>the storage, especially on the low end. So the way

0:04:17.760 --> 0:04:20.200
<v Speaker 1>I figure it, you're really paying two hundred and fifty

0:04:20.200 --> 0:04:24.480
<v Speaker 1>dollars more for the least amount of storage on this lineup.

0:04:24.760 --> 0:04:27.000
<v Speaker 1>So if we follow the pricing down, which means we

0:04:27.000 --> 0:04:29.360
<v Speaker 1>subtract two hundred dollars for half the storage, it would

0:04:29.400 --> 0:04:32.200
<v Speaker 1>be five hundred and twelve gigs for thirteen fifty, two

0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:35.200
<v Speaker 1>fifty six for eleven fifty one, twenty eight for nine

0:04:35.160 --> 0:04:37.679
<v Speaker 1>to fifty, which by the way doesn't exist, and sixty

0:04:37.720 --> 0:04:40.400
<v Speaker 1>four gigs for seven hundred and fifty. That's just simple

0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:44.159
<v Speaker 1>pattern math. But you're paying nine ninety nine for sixty

0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:47.480
<v Speaker 1>four gigs, So realistically nine ninety nine minus seven fifty

0:04:47.600 --> 0:04:51.720
<v Speaker 1>two hundred and fifty dollars premium to get that sixty

0:04:51.760 --> 0:04:53.880
<v Speaker 1>four gigabyte model, you might as well go for the

0:04:53.920 --> 0:04:57.240
<v Speaker 1>two fifty six at eleven fifty. Pricing on the iPhone

0:04:57.360 --> 0:05:01.440
<v Speaker 1>ten S max is as fallou sixty four gigs for

0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:05.320
<v Speaker 1>one ninety nine dollars, two hundred and fifty six gigs

0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:08.200
<v Speaker 1>is twelve hundred and fifty dollars, and five hundred and

0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:12.160
<v Speaker 1>twelve gigs is a whopping fourteen hundred and fifty dollars.

0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:15.800
<v Speaker 1>The phones are on pre order September fourteenth. They're in

0:05:15.839 --> 0:05:19.240
<v Speaker 1>store September twenty first in gold, gray, and silver. All right, now,

0:05:19.320 --> 0:05:22.320
<v Speaker 1>let's talk about the iPhone ten R. This is basically

0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:25.400
<v Speaker 1>an iPhone eight plus, but without a home button. It

0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:28.480
<v Speaker 1>does have an LCD screen, which is less expensive, plus

0:05:28.720 --> 0:05:32.080
<v Speaker 1>a less expensive aluminum housing. It feels super light in

0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:33.800
<v Speaker 1>the hand, but it does not feel cheap. It just

0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:36.120
<v Speaker 1>feels like a nice light phone. It has a big

0:05:36.160 --> 0:05:39.000
<v Speaker 1>six point one inch screen that doesn't go quite edge

0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:41.760
<v Speaker 1>to edge. It does, but there is some black between

0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:44.200
<v Speaker 1>the screen and the edges. I don't think many people

0:05:44.240 --> 0:05:46.599
<v Speaker 1>will notice unless they're looking at it side by side

0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:49.279
<v Speaker 1>with one of the iPhone ten s's. This is going

0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:50.560
<v Speaker 1>to be the phone that I think a lot of

0:05:50.600 --> 0:05:52.960
<v Speaker 1>people are going to gravitate towards because it's got that

0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:55.560
<v Speaker 1>price tag of seven hundred and fifty dollars for a

0:05:55.680 --> 0:05:58.680
<v Speaker 1>sixty four gigabyte model and Apple actually did a pretty

0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:01.479
<v Speaker 1>good job of packing this device with good specs. It's

0:06:01.480 --> 0:06:03.720
<v Speaker 1>not like a phone that has last year's specs. It

0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:06.960
<v Speaker 1>has the same A twelve bionic processor, the same twelve

0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:09.600
<v Speaker 1>megapixel wide angle camera as you get in the ten s,

0:06:10.240 --> 0:06:12.360
<v Speaker 1>but it only has one lens instead of two, but

0:06:12.520 --> 0:06:15.000
<v Speaker 1>it can do the same or a very similar Boca

0:06:15.000 --> 0:06:18.240
<v Speaker 1>effect with the software on the camera instead of hardware.

0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:20.560
<v Speaker 1>And no, it does not have three D touch, but

0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:25.960
<v Speaker 1>it does come in a bunch of fun colors, including yellow, white, coral, black, blue,

0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:29.599
<v Speaker 1>and product red. Overall, this is a very full feature device.

0:06:29.640 --> 0:06:32.800
<v Speaker 1>You just don't get all of Apple's flagship features, and

0:06:33.000 --> 0:06:36.119
<v Speaker 1>the screen resolution isn't as high, but again, most users

0:06:36.160 --> 0:06:38.360
<v Speaker 1>are not going to notice unless it's placed next to

0:06:38.360 --> 0:06:40.719
<v Speaker 1>one of the higher end devices. So the pricing for

0:06:40.760 --> 0:06:43.920
<v Speaker 1>this one seven point fifty for sixty four gigs, seven

0:06:44.040 --> 0:06:46.400
<v Speaker 1>ninety nine for one hundred and twenty eight gigs, or

0:06:46.480 --> 0:06:48.800
<v Speaker 1>eight ninety nine for two hundred and fifty six gigs.

0:06:48.920 --> 0:06:50.440
<v Speaker 1>If we look at that another way, put it in

0:06:50.480 --> 0:06:53.200
<v Speaker 1>a column eight ninety nine for two fifty six, seven

0:06:53.320 --> 0:06:55.680
<v Speaker 1>ninety nine for one twenty eight, and then it would

0:06:55.680 --> 0:06:58.039
<v Speaker 1>be six ninety nine for sixty four because you're having

0:06:58.120 --> 0:07:00.359
<v Speaker 1>the storage and you're taking one hundred bucks off. In

0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:02.760
<v Speaker 1>this case, that sixty four gigabyte model should really be

0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:05.360
<v Speaker 1>six ninety nine and for following the pattern, so your

0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:07.880
<v Speaker 1>best bet would be to spring for these seven ninety nine,

0:07:08.080 --> 0:07:10.720
<v Speaker 1>one and twenty eight gig model. Here, there's really no

0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:12.960
<v Speaker 1>benefit in getting the two fifty six unless you need

0:07:13.000 --> 0:07:16.120
<v Speaker 1>the storage because double the storage is not being offered

0:07:16.160 --> 0:07:18.800
<v Speaker 1>at a discount. The iPhone ten R is on pre

0:07:18.880 --> 0:07:22.160
<v Speaker 1>order October nineteenth. It's in stores on October twenty six.

0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:25.040
<v Speaker 1>There you have it, all the basics on the new iPhones. Overall,

0:07:25.240 --> 0:07:28.400
<v Speaker 1>these are a great evolution. There's not one revolutionary feature

0:07:28.440 --> 0:07:30.200
<v Speaker 1>in any of them. But I think a lot of

0:07:30.200 --> 0:07:32.559
<v Speaker 1>people are going to go with the ten R because

0:07:32.600 --> 0:07:34.280
<v Speaker 1>you get a lot for your money. You get that

0:07:34.320 --> 0:07:36.760
<v Speaker 1>big screen, you get sixty four gigabytes of storage for

0:07:36.800 --> 0:07:39.200
<v Speaker 1>seven hundred and fifty dollars, and yes, you get a

0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:42.160
<v Speaker 1>very capable camera, so overall it's a pretty good deal.

0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:45.000
<v Speaker 1>You can find links to my video coverage at richontech

0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:48.760
<v Speaker 1>dot tv, including a hands on first look at both phones.

0:07:48.960 --> 0:07:51.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm Rich Dimiro. Thanks so much for listening. I'll talk

0:07:51.240 --> 0:07:52.000
<v Speaker 1>to you. Real estate
