WEBVTT - Samsung's new laptops play nice with Galaxy phones 0:00:08.039 --> 0:00:13.240 Cees returns to Las Vegas for twenty twenty two. Samsung 0:00:13.320 --> 0:00:19.000 has some really slick looking laptops, and T Mobile debuts 0:00:19.320 --> 0:00:24.840 their own tracker. Plus your tech questions answered. What's going on? 0:00:24.920 --> 0:00:28.240 I'mrich Demiro and this is Rich on Tech, the podcast 0:00:28.280 --> 0:00:30.200 where I talk about the tech stuff I think you 0:00:30.280 --> 0:00:33.800 should know about. It's also the place right answer the 0:00:33.880 --> 0:00:37.519 questions you send me. I'm the tech reporter at KTLA 0:00:37.600 --> 0:00:42.839 Channel five in Los Angeles. Thanks for tuning into the show. 0:00:43.640 --> 0:00:47.760 Welcome back to me, because if you noticed, I wasn't here. 0:00:47.840 --> 0:00:51.360 Last week. I flew to New Jersey to see my 0:00:51.400 --> 0:00:55.000 family for the first time in a year, marking the 0:00:55.240 --> 0:00:57.480 third time I've been on a plane during the pandemic, 0:00:57.640 --> 0:01:02.880 and it's all been very different experiences. Number One, well 0:01:02.880 --> 0:01:05.040 these the last two times the planes were packed, so 0:01:05.240 --> 0:01:09.959 that's for starters, but overall good experience. This my flight 0:01:10.080 --> 0:01:14.120 to New Jersey. They were very particular about, you know, 0:01:14.160 --> 0:01:15.959 when to take off your mask to eat. You know, 0:01:16.000 --> 0:01:17.840 you had to you have to put it back up 0:01:17.880 --> 0:01:21.640 in between bites anyway, all this stuff, so it was fine. 0:01:22.240 --> 0:01:24.959 I did get a chance to check out a really 0:01:25.280 --> 0:01:28.200 really wild place in New Jersey called the American Dream. 0:01:28.800 --> 0:01:32.600 This is a mall that was being built for I 0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:35.560 think like at least twenty years. I mean, this thing 0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:39.880 started out something called like Xana Do, and it just 0:01:40.040 --> 0:01:43.600 it never came to fruition, and it just sat vacant 0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:47.000 for so long, and then finally someone purchased it. I 0:01:47.040 --> 0:01:49.120 did some research. It looks like it's the same owners 0:01:49.120 --> 0:01:51.960 as the Mall of America, so they know a thing 0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:54.600 or two about giant malls. But I'm telling you, this 0:01:54.640 --> 0:01:58.720 thing is huge. It's right outside New York City in 0:01:58.760 --> 0:02:00.920 the Meadowlands, if you're familiar with New Jersey at all, 0:02:01.000 --> 0:02:03.120 kind of where when I grew up it was called 0:02:03.120 --> 0:02:07.960 the Continental Airlines Arena and Giants Stadium. Now, of course 0:02:08.000 --> 0:02:10.400 it's MetLife Arena, and I don't think the other one 0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:12.280 or MetLife Stadium, and I don't think the other one 0:02:12.320 --> 0:02:15.680 is even there anymore. But this thing has a water 0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:19.960 park inside a theme park inside let's see mini golf 0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:25.040 inside a Lego land type place, but not the full 0:02:25.080 --> 0:02:29.040 like rides and all that stuff, Sea Life aquarium, no 0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:31.160 movie theater, which I thought was kind of interesting. That 0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:34.440 seems like an omission. But not everything was open just 0:02:34.560 --> 0:02:37.919 yet because I think it just recently opened, but they're 0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:40.880 still kind of getting stores on board and stuff. But anyway, 0:02:40.960 --> 0:02:42.919 kind of fun. Did a little video on my YouTube 0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:46.520 and all the various social channels, but I don't know, 0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:49.040 I thought it was interesting, you know, the mall is 0:02:49.080 --> 0:02:51.840 like this very I spent the most time in the 0:02:51.840 --> 0:02:54.640 Amazon store. I mean, isn't that wild. That's where I 0:02:54.680 --> 0:02:56.799 went After all that, I just went to the place 0:02:56.800 --> 0:02:58.919 where I shop all the time. But it's just cool 0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:01.880 to see. Definitely an experience, and I can see it 0:03:01.960 --> 0:03:04.760 being more crowded once things kind of get up and 0:03:04.800 --> 0:03:08.200 running a little bit more. But they do have thirty 0:03:08.240 --> 0:03:11.640 thousand parking spots, so I think they're prepared. No, no, uh, 0:03:11.760 --> 0:03:13.600 the parking was free while I was there. That was 0:03:13.639 --> 0:03:15.519 the best part. You know, they're gonna end up charging 0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:18.080 so much for that, but right now it's free. The 0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:20.000 other thing I did in New Jersey was help my 0:03:20.040 --> 0:03:21.840 family out with all their tech. Every time I go 0:03:21.880 --> 0:03:25.360 out to Jersey, you know, I'm sitting there upgrading their 0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:28.240 Wi Fi and just making sure everything's working properly. So 0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:31.240 that's always fun and always, you know, I feel like 0:03:31.280 --> 0:03:33.840 I have a good handle on the average person when 0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:36.120 it comes to technology, because I get so many emails 0:03:36.120 --> 0:03:38.280 and stuff and you hear them on the show, but 0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:41.320 when I go home, I really truly get that first 0:03:41.400 --> 0:03:44.320 kind of hands on, Like, you know, the questions that 0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:46.920 I get from my family about tech is like, wow, 0:03:47.000 --> 0:03:51.080 this is like people just generally. I guess since I'm 0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:53.560 immersed in it on a daily basis and I'm following 0:03:53.600 --> 0:03:56.280 it so closely, I just know the nuances of everything. 0:03:56.800 --> 0:03:58.640 But when you really just think of the average person, 0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:01.720 like the questions you get, it makes me realize that 0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:04.600 I have to start at the very basics when I 0:04:04.640 --> 0:04:08.840 present something on TV or pretty much anywhere else on 0:04:08.880 --> 0:04:12.880 my Facebook, social media whatever. For instance, I just posted 0:04:12.880 --> 0:04:15.800 a video of the air tag. This is Apple's tracking 0:04:15.840 --> 0:04:17.640 device that we didn't really get to talk about in 0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:20.960 the last show because there was no last show. When 0:04:21.000 --> 0:04:24.000 it happened, I went on Brian Tong's podcast, so if 0:04:24.040 --> 0:04:27.120 you want to listen to that, you can. I talked 0:04:27.200 --> 0:04:29.280 at length about the air tag and how much I 0:04:29.400 --> 0:04:32.640 believe there the future and all this stuff. But anyway, 0:04:32.680 --> 0:04:35.520 so I got one and I am playing around with it, 0:04:35.560 --> 0:04:37.800 and I put a little video on my Instagram. The 0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:40.120 number one question is wait a second, Rich, how do 0:04:40.160 --> 0:04:42.960 you attach that to your stuff? And it just didn't 0:04:42.960 --> 0:04:44.600 even occur to me that I would have to show 0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:49.200 people that you need like a little loop or keychain 0:04:49.279 --> 0:04:52.240 to attach it, which, of course Apple will gladly sell 0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:54.919 you for twenty nine dollars. There's a bunch of third 0:04:54.920 --> 0:04:58.920 party devices that let you attach these or accessories. I 0:04:58.920 --> 0:05:01.200 should say that lets you attack the air tag to things, 0:05:01.240 --> 0:05:04.440 but I mean you've probably heard about the air tag 0:05:04.520 --> 0:05:06.600 over and over. I'm gonna do my review next week 0:05:06.640 --> 0:05:11.560 for KTLA, but I am very, very bullish on these things. 0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:14.560 I think that's the good one, right. I mean, Apple 0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:18.440 has nearly a billion devices out there in the world 0:05:18.800 --> 0:05:22.360 that can help you locate these things. Chances are it's 0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:25.279 not gonna go lost because someone with an iPhone is 0:05:25.320 --> 0:05:28.120 going to wander past your little air tag and update 0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:31.599 its location. So I find these things to be quite 0:05:31.680 --> 0:05:36.479 quite fascinating. Although I will say, knock on wood, is 0:05:36.480 --> 0:05:39.440 that wood? I don't know some others would. I have 0:05:39.520 --> 0:05:41.880 not really lost a lot of items in the past 0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:45.039 couple of years or many years, but you never know. 0:05:45.080 --> 0:05:48.280 It only takes once, right, all right? Big News of 0:05:48.320 --> 0:05:54.000 the Week CTA announcing the return to Las Vegas for 0:05:54.120 --> 0:05:58.200 CS twenty twenty two. This is a big announcement saying 0:05:58.240 --> 0:06:02.240 that CS will happen in Lost Vegas January fifth through eighth, 0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:06.440 twenty twenty two. Now you might remember that I was 0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:09.960 a part of the All Digital CS this year. For 0:06:10.080 --> 0:06:12.960 CS twenty twenty one, they actually announced. You may have 0:06:13.000 --> 0:06:16.080 forgotten about this, but they actually announced that CS was 0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:19.640 going to happen in Las Vegas back before, you know, 0:06:19.760 --> 0:06:21.920 like this was like six months prior or eight months 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:24.080 whatever it was. They're like, yeah, we're still going to 0:06:24.160 --> 0:06:26.640 have it, and then all of a sudden, it was like, uh, yeah, 0:06:26.680 --> 0:06:29.280 this this pandemic is a little more serious than we imagined. 0:06:29.960 --> 0:06:32.080 Uh and yeah it's not happening. And that was kind 0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:36.719 of like understandable. Now it seems wild and unfathomable that 0:06:36.760 --> 0:06:39.359 someone would think an in person event would happen in 0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:41.960 January of this year, But you got to remember to 0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:45.240 when this pandemic first started, we really did not know 0:06:45.600 --> 0:06:48.239 anything about the scope of it. I mean, I remember 0:06:48.279 --> 0:06:50.679 when I came home from work, I was like, Okay, 0:06:50.720 --> 0:06:52.400 we're all gonna kind of, you know, take a breather 0:06:52.520 --> 0:06:55.600 for two weeks, three weeks whatever, No, it turned into 0:06:55.640 --> 0:07:00.080 like a year and I'm still working from home. So anyway, 0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:03.359 CS twenty twenty two happening in Las Vegas. I already 0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:07.040 checked hotel rooms. Yes, they're already expensive. But they do 0:07:07.200 --> 0:07:12.200 say that there will be a digital aspect to this. 0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:15.320 So the CS anchor Desk, which debuted at CS twenty 0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:17.560 twenty one, will travel to Las Vegas and connect the 0:07:17.560 --> 0:07:22.040 digital audience with everything. And so the big question is, 0:07:22.760 --> 0:07:26.679 you know, there was four of us at the digital 0:07:26.720 --> 0:07:30.360 anchor desk at CS twenty twenty one. Will any of 0:07:30.440 --> 0:07:33.440 us get that phone call to come back and do 0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:38.600 the anchor desk again for CS twenty twenty two. So 0:07:38.800 --> 0:07:45.600 it was myself, I, Justine, Brian Tongue, and Naomi Kyle. 0:07:46.040 --> 0:07:49.040 Will any of us be there for CS twenty twenty 0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:52.560 two for the digital anchor desk? I don't know. I mean, 0:07:52.600 --> 0:07:54.720 I would be honored if they asked me back. I 0:07:54.840 --> 0:07:57.640 certainly don't expect them. It's not like a given, it's 0:07:57.680 --> 0:07:59.320 not a shoe, and they may want to just rotate 0:07:59.320 --> 0:08:03.280 different people who who knows, But anyway, I'm excited for 0:08:03.320 --> 0:08:05.880 CS twenty twenty two. No matter what, I will be 0:08:05.920 --> 0:08:09.120 there in Las Vegas. I can't wait because my camera 0:08:09.200 --> 0:08:12.960 roll was getting a little thinned out of stuff to post. 0:08:13.000 --> 0:08:15.520 I get so much good stuff to post at CS 0:08:15.560 --> 0:08:18.600 every year. I end up posting videos from that throughout 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:22.400 the year. In fact, I recently post a video posted 0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:25.560 a video of I still have more stuff to post 0:08:25.640 --> 0:08:29.440 from CS twenty twenty that I'd never posted because I 0:08:29.480 --> 0:08:31.320 felt like at a certain point it was like too late, 0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:33.320 and then I was like eh, But I did end 0:08:33.400 --> 0:08:36.079 up just reposting or posting something for the first time. 0:08:36.440 --> 0:08:39.800 You know, you're talking what two years later, and it 0:08:39.880 --> 0:08:42.120 still did really well because you know, people it's the 0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:45.760 first time they're seeing this stuff. All right, Let's get 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:51.360 to the first question of the day. Jam says, I 0:08:51.400 --> 0:08:53.720 watch your TV show every day, wondering if you know 0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:57.640 how to say photos, stories, events, and articles online independently 0:08:57.679 --> 0:09:01.000 from other sites so that they would stay on forever. 0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:04.520 More So, many sites remove articles after a shelf life burnout. 0:09:04.520 --> 0:09:07.240 I'm looking to keep things posted for a lifetime, hoping 0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:12.080 for free. Thanks for your advice, JM. Good question, JM. 0:09:12.320 --> 0:09:17.520 So I would recommend for saving things. Ever, note and 0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:20.440 the name just implies that it will be around forever, 0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:23.360 when in fact, we know we've been proven over and 0:09:23.400 --> 0:09:26.280 over that things don't necessarily last forever. But Evernote has 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:28.120 a pretty good track record, They've been around for a 0:09:28.160 --> 0:09:30.960 long time, and they do have a free option. So 0:09:31.120 --> 0:09:35.480 did you say, yeah, hoping for free? So basically, you 0:09:35.559 --> 0:09:38.880 install the app on your computer and then you install 0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:41.599 what's called the Evernote web clipper. And the reason I 0:09:41.640 --> 0:09:44.960 would say Evernote first, I don't agree with everything Evernote does. 0:09:45.000 --> 0:09:48.120 I feel like their application is a little bit crowded 0:09:48.240 --> 0:09:50.920 and kind of it's gotten crowded over the years, But 0:09:51.440 --> 0:09:55.920 I think that they have the best solution out there overall, 0:09:56.200 --> 0:10:00.400 and their web clipper is the best you can get online. 0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:02.960 So I would say Evernote is the way to go. 0:10:03.480 --> 0:10:06.480 Sign up for the free service, and you know, if 0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:08.440 you outgrow the free service and you find that you 0:10:08.440 --> 0:10:10.920 have to subscribe, you will end up having to pay 0:10:10.960 --> 0:10:14.800 a little bit each year. But in the times I 0:10:14.840 --> 0:10:16.640 had it, there's always some sort of deal that they 0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:20.600 offered to renew. That's number one. Number two, I would 0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:24.080 say Microsoft one Note is a is another one that's 0:10:24.120 --> 0:10:26.920 really good. I don't find it. I don't like it 0:10:27.000 --> 0:10:31.960 as much as as the Evernote, but I like, I 0:10:31.960 --> 0:10:35.040 think it's a good second, and it's Microsoft. It's going 0:10:35.080 --> 0:10:37.680 to be around forever. They also have a web clipper, 0:10:38.040 --> 0:10:41.800 and there's this free for fifteen gigs of storage, so 0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:44.280 you really don't run into the situation that ever Note. 0:10:44.320 --> 0:10:46.880 Evernote does it like by the month, so it's like 0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:49.360 you get a certain amount like ten megabytes or something 0:10:49.400 --> 0:10:51.160 of clipping a month. I don't know what it is, 0:10:51.720 --> 0:10:56.560 but you know, Evernote does it. Or one Drive. One 0:10:56.640 --> 0:10:58.560 note is linked to one drive and they do it 0:10:58.600 --> 0:11:01.160 by your fifteen gigs. If you have fifteen gigs of storage, 0:11:01.160 --> 0:11:03.280 I don't care really what you're doing with that, but 0:11:03.320 --> 0:11:05.480 once you go through it, you will have to pay. 0:11:05.640 --> 0:11:07.360 And there's some other little things that they do, I 0:11:07.400 --> 0:11:09.760 think to try to make you pay, But for the 0:11:09.760 --> 0:11:11.760 most part, that's a really good one as well. And 0:11:11.800 --> 0:11:13.800 then there's other options. I mean, you can use Google 0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:17.080 Keep that will do it. Google keep just doesn't really 0:11:17.120 --> 0:11:19.679 have a good What I like about ever Know and 0:11:19.800 --> 0:11:22.040 one Drive is that they will clip the actual text 0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:26.280 from articles online and also the pictures and stuff, so 0:11:26.440 --> 0:11:29.319 it saves it kind of locally, like you're asking that 0:11:29.760 --> 0:11:34.400 will work indefinitely, so even if the original site is 0:11:34.440 --> 0:11:36.960 taken down, you'll still have your copy of it. So 0:11:37.000 --> 0:11:39.079 those are the things I would recommend. Look into those things. 0:11:39.160 --> 0:11:43.720 One of them will likely work for you. Now let's 0:11:43.760 --> 0:11:47.720 move on to Samsung. Oh wow, Samsung. I have never 0:11:48.000 --> 0:11:54.320 been more excited for laptops than these samsungs. I didn't 0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:56.000 get to go hands on with these. Looks like they 0:11:56.000 --> 0:11:59.240 did something in New York City with some media there 0:12:00.360 --> 0:12:02.400 being in LA. I did not go out. I wasn't 0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:05.640 actually even invited. They were inviting me at the beginning 0:12:05.679 --> 0:12:07.440 to these things that they were doing in New York City, 0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:09.120 and then they kind of just like, we're not even 0:12:09.120 --> 0:12:10.920 gonna ask people to travel right now. So if you 0:12:10.920 --> 0:12:13.800 can make it there, you know, fine, But that's fine. 0:12:13.800 --> 0:12:17.200 I'm not no hard feelings there. But Samsung Galaxy Book 0:12:17.280 --> 0:12:21.679 Pro and Galaxy Book Pro three sixty. So here's the 0:12:22.120 --> 0:12:24.520 skinny on these. The number one, they're thin in light, 0:12:25.080 --> 0:12:26.960 They kind of have all the features that you would 0:12:27.040 --> 0:12:30.320 imagine a Samsung laptop would have. They kind of look 0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:34.040 and feel like almost like a smartphone, you know, inspired 0:12:34.080 --> 0:12:37.920 by smartphone. So some of these models have touch screens. 0:12:38.400 --> 0:12:41.120 They've got the smart switch, which you know you used 0:12:41.160 --> 0:12:43.800 to kind of take all your old files and settings 0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:45.920 from your old laptop to your new one. Of course, 0:12:45.920 --> 0:12:50.400 Windows is what they're running. Thin in light. I interviewed 0:12:50.400 --> 0:12:54.240 Sam Rutherford from Gizmoto and he actually got to go 0:12:54.280 --> 0:12:56.120 hands on with these, and he said he just could 0:12:56.120 --> 0:12:59.079 not believe how thin and light they were. They were 0:12:59.120 --> 0:13:03.480 like astonishingly thin and light. So that's really cool. Some 0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:07.679 of them have either have LTE or five G and 0:13:07.720 --> 0:13:10.280 then they've got a lot of little like pain points 0:13:10.280 --> 0:13:13.240 that they figured out, like kind of just I don't know. 0:13:13.280 --> 0:13:16.080 There's like a stylist you can get with some models, 0:13:16.679 --> 0:13:20.959 touchscreen on some models. The ports, they have a lot 0:13:21.000 --> 0:13:24.640 of them, Like you know, they have various USB C ports, 0:13:24.760 --> 0:13:30.959 various USB ports, various thunderbolt ports, you know, headphone jack. 0:13:31.080 --> 0:13:33.920 So there's just a lot going on here. The keyboard 0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:36.880 they say they made as comfortable as possible. There's all 0:13:36.960 --> 0:13:40.120 kinds of things like screen recording and stuff for making 0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:43.760 you look better on video chat. And then of course 0:13:43.760 --> 0:13:46.360 it links to your Samsung Galaxy phone or just an 0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:49.560 Android phone in general really nicely. There's a lot of 0:13:49.640 --> 0:13:51.880 integration and a lot of that stuff. You were able 0:13:51.880 --> 0:13:54.360 to get on other Windows laptops, but this is kind 0:13:54.400 --> 0:13:57.800 of they worked with Microsoft and Samsung and Microsoft have 0:13:57.800 --> 0:14:01.720 gotten really close in the whole Apple world. You know, 0:14:01.760 --> 0:14:05.160 Apple has such a tight ecosystem with their stuff that 0:14:05.240 --> 0:14:09.760 these other manufacturers realize that they need something to compete 0:14:09.760 --> 0:14:12.400 with that. And I think this Galaxy Book Pro, if 0:14:12.400 --> 0:14:15.320 you have an Android, this is kind of the closest 0:14:15.320 --> 0:14:18.240 you get to having an Android plus a laptop that 0:14:18.320 --> 0:14:22.360 works seamlessly, just the way and an iPhone works with 0:14:22.440 --> 0:14:25.520 a Mac laptop. And of course you can also you 0:14:25.560 --> 0:14:28.840 know nearby share files. I mean, your photos show up 0:14:28.840 --> 0:14:31.160 in the gallery on the computer. There's just a lot 0:14:31.240 --> 0:14:36.640 going on here. So available May fourteenth, the thirteen inch 0:14:36.680 --> 0:14:39.240 Galaxy Book Pro starts at one thousand, the fifteen inch 0:14:39.240 --> 0:14:41.960 starts at eleven hundred. Then you've got the Galaxy Pro 0:14:42.040 --> 0:14:44.080 three to sixty. This is the one that has the 0:14:44.120 --> 0:14:47.680 touchscreen and also the convertible so it bends fully backwards. 0:14:48.080 --> 0:14:50.400 That's going to start at twelve hundred for the thirteen 0:14:50.440 --> 0:14:54.000 inch and then thirteen hundred for the fifteen inch. And 0:14:54.080 --> 0:14:56.960 if you order it pre order, which is now until 0:14:56.960 --> 0:14:58.920 May thirteenth, you get one hundred and fifty dollars in 0:14:58.960 --> 0:15:03.920 credits for a future order, or if you purchase at launch, 0:15:03.960 --> 0:15:06.120 which is starting May fourteenth through May thirty, if you 0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:09.040 get one hundred dollars credit and the hard drives on 0:15:09.080 --> 0:15:11.720 these things. It's kind of the only sore point for me. 0:15:12.040 --> 0:15:15.600 Up to five twelve gigs on the smaller models and 0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:19.160 a terabyte on the bigger models. But I don't know. 0:15:19.280 --> 0:15:22.480 I mean, if I was, if I was a Galaxy user, 0:15:22.920 --> 0:15:24.560 I think I would have to rock one of these 0:15:24.600 --> 0:15:27.440 laptops and I would I guess I would just go 0:15:27.520 --> 0:15:30.160 all Premiere. I mean, we're using Premiere at KTLA to 0:15:30.400 --> 0:15:33.840 edit our pieces for air. I personally use Final Cut 0:15:33.880 --> 0:15:37.040 for any of my social media stuff. But I could 0:15:37.280 --> 0:15:40.040 maybe be convinced to move over if I was switching 0:15:40.040 --> 0:15:42.120 to an S twenty one Ultra. I don't know, just 0:15:43.080 --> 0:15:51.320 saying all right. Next question, Charlene says bicyclist here, would 0:15:51.360 --> 0:15:54.200 you have a recommendation for a communication device between riders 0:15:54.240 --> 0:15:56.640 in a group? Would rather not depend on cell service 0:15:56.680 --> 0:16:00.880 more of a hands free walkie talkie? Thank you? This 0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:04.040 is an interesting question. I don't know, I'm not I'm 0:16:04.120 --> 0:16:07.600 sure the biker community out there knows of something that 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:10.600 maybe I'm just not thinking of. But to me, I'm 0:16:10.720 --> 0:16:14.600 so kind of cell phone centric that I'm not really sure. 0:16:14.640 --> 0:16:17.080 I mean, you could just spring for regular walkie talkies, 0:16:17.120 --> 0:16:19.600 would that work? I mean, just clip them to your bike. 0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:22.120 I'm sure they have those, like you know, those little 0:16:24.200 --> 0:16:26.800 attachments that you can put on your shirt or something 0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:29.360 that I don't know. I mean, you're you're saying you're bicyclists, 0:16:29.360 --> 0:16:33.040 so I'm sure you're not going as fast as a motorcycle. 0:16:33.080 --> 0:16:35.080 I'm thinking more motorcycle where there'd be a lot of 0:16:35.080 --> 0:16:37.120 wind noise, and how do you even communicate you need 0:16:37.160 --> 0:16:39.400 something in your ear? But I think you can get 0:16:39.600 --> 0:16:41.840 you know, just regular walkie talkies with a head piece. 0:16:41.960 --> 0:16:45.160 Just start with that perhaps, But if you're in a group, 0:16:45.800 --> 0:16:47.520 I don't know. I mean, how many people can use 0:16:47.560 --> 0:16:50.600 walkie talkies with I don't know. It's just there's the 0:16:50.640 --> 0:16:53.840 other thing there's on Apple Watch. They have the walkie 0:16:53.840 --> 0:16:56.800 talkie feature which you could also use, but again you 0:16:56.840 --> 0:16:59.360 would have to have you know, cell phone service with that. 0:17:00.160 --> 0:17:03.160 And then there's something called Zello, which I know this 0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:07.600 app is very popular. This was kind of I don't 0:17:07.600 --> 0:17:09.760 know what the deal was with this during the whole 0:17:09.800 --> 0:17:12.400 like fire season and all that stuff. But Zello has 0:17:12.440 --> 0:17:15.680 some stuff, so I would check out ze Lllo dot com. 0:17:16.440 --> 0:17:18.520 But I don't know. If you have a suggestion, at 0:17:18.600 --> 0:17:20.359 me at rich on tech on Twitter and let me 0:17:20.440 --> 0:17:22.680 know what would you suggest for bicyclists to keep in 0:17:22.800 --> 0:17:26.520 touch kind of a lah walkie talkie. I don't know. 0:17:27.560 --> 0:17:31.359 I just think smartphone, smartphone, smartphone, But maybe there's something 0:17:31.440 --> 0:17:35.840 that's so obvious I'm just not really thinking about. All right, 0:17:36.080 --> 0:17:39.440 let's talk about T Mobile. Now. We talked about the 0:17:39.520 --> 0:17:41.800 air tag, which I'm very bullish on, but the air 0:17:41.880 --> 0:17:44.600 tag is not really meant to keep track of people 0:17:45.400 --> 0:17:49.360 or of things that are you know, It's really meant 0:17:49.400 --> 0:17:52.000 for items, right, And so when you think about sort 0:17:52.040 --> 0:17:55.440 of your dog or a kid, you might want maybe 0:17:55.560 --> 0:17:58.879 more of a full fledged tracking device. And T Mobile 0:17:58.920 --> 0:18:02.080 has something that might fit the bill. This is called 0:18:02.119 --> 0:18:06.200 the sync up Tracker, and this is more of a 0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:11.760 like almost like a digital GPS device. So this is 0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:16.800 it works on T mobiles LTE network. So this does 0:18:16.880 --> 0:18:19.600 have a cellular connection built in, which the air tag 0:18:19.680 --> 0:18:23.399 does not. It works with iOS and Android, which the 0:18:23.600 --> 0:18:27.240 air tag only works with iOS. It's available Friday, May seventh. 0:18:27.520 --> 0:18:30.440 And the reality here is that this is more of 0:18:31.160 --> 0:18:35.399 a GPS tracker, and so you can set virtual boundaries. 0:18:35.640 --> 0:18:38.719 So if you set a boundary for your kid at school, 0:18:39.160 --> 0:18:42.680 you'll get a notification when this tracker leaves that boundary, 0:18:43.840 --> 0:18:45.879 so that's kind of cool. It does not need to 0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:48.400 be near a smartphone to work, so this just connects 0:18:48.480 --> 0:18:51.520 directly to the cellular network, unlike the air tag, which 0:18:51.600 --> 0:18:55.639 does need to piggyback off of phones. You can ring 0:18:55.720 --> 0:18:58.000 it when it's lost. You've got a light sensor, so 0:18:58.320 --> 0:19:01.040 it can even sense when it from light to dark 0:19:01.160 --> 0:19:04.480 or dark to light. So let's say you put it 0:19:04.600 --> 0:19:08.520 in something and someone opens that like a refrigerator door, 0:19:08.640 --> 0:19:11.920 you would get a notification. It's also water and dust 0:19:11.960 --> 0:19:14.639 resistant IP sixty seven, which is the same as the 0:19:14.680 --> 0:19:17.560 air tag, and it has a nine hundred million hour 0:19:17.840 --> 0:19:21.560 rechargeable battery, so this is rechargeable versus the air tag, 0:19:21.600 --> 0:19:25.200 which has a replaceable battery. But the battery on T 0:19:25.400 --> 0:19:28.280 Mobile's device only lasts for seven days, and that makes 0:19:28.280 --> 0:19:32.400 a lot of sense because it is constantly using cellular 0:19:32.560 --> 0:19:35.359 to ping the network and use that and grab a 0:19:35.440 --> 0:19:37.800 GPS location, So it's not going to last as long 0:19:37.840 --> 0:19:42.160 as what Apple has, which is just basically using Bluetooth 0:19:42.240 --> 0:19:46.320 low energy to ping a cell phone that's nearby, or 0:19:46.440 --> 0:19:50.000 cell phone pings, I don't know either way. It's also 0:19:50.320 --> 0:19:54.160 a little bit more expensive sixty dollars and then five 0:19:54.240 --> 0:19:57.119 dollars a month for data. So again at first, at 0:19:57.160 --> 0:19:59.080 first thought, you might be like, rich, why would I 0:19:59.320 --> 0:20:02.440 ever Why would I ever get something like the sink 0:20:02.480 --> 0:20:05.280 up tracker when I could get the air tag for 0:20:05.440 --> 0:20:08.159 half the price and no monthly fee. Well, they are 0:20:08.440 --> 0:20:13.480 very different devices. The sync up tracker would be probably 0:20:13.680 --> 0:20:16.240 something more along the lines of what I would put 0:20:16.280 --> 0:20:19.000 on a dog, or more along the lines of what 0:20:19.040 --> 0:20:21.400 I would clip to my kids backpack to keep track 0:20:21.480 --> 0:20:26.000 of them, more so than the than the air tag, 0:20:26.040 --> 0:20:28.080 which is not really meant for kids. It's not really 0:20:28.160 --> 0:20:30.359 meant for pets, but I know people are going to 0:20:30.480 --> 0:20:33.520 use it for that. But we'll see as people experience 0:20:33.600 --> 0:20:36.120 these things just how well they will work with kids 0:20:36.200 --> 0:20:39.760 and pets. Because you know, there are some things built 0:20:39.800 --> 0:20:42.520 into the to the air tag that makes it not 0:20:42.800 --> 0:20:47.320 a good solution for third party clips. You know, when 0:20:47.359 --> 0:20:49.119 you're when you're clipping it to something that is not 0:20:49.320 --> 0:20:52.440 near your phone all the time. It it does some 0:20:52.600 --> 0:20:54.639 things to make sure that it's not being used in 0:20:54.720 --> 0:20:57.480 a nefarious way. So we'll have to see if that 0:20:57.560 --> 0:21:00.680 does work with kids and backpacks all that stuff. But 0:21:01.240 --> 0:21:05.320 our kids and dogs, I should say so. Anyway, I 0:21:05.400 --> 0:21:07.240 think we're gonna see a lot more of these trackers 0:21:08.080 --> 0:21:11.960 out in the marketplace, just because battery technology is getting better. 0:21:12.440 --> 0:21:15.080 Cellular companies want to make money on their networks, and 0:21:16.359 --> 0:21:18.600 you know we already see that. Samsung is coming out 0:21:18.680 --> 0:21:22.800 with They announced at their Galaxy Unpacked event. They made 0:21:22.840 --> 0:21:25.439 a big deal about their oh gosh, what did they 0:21:25.520 --> 0:21:29.320 call it? They called it the Galaxy Oh did they 0:21:29.440 --> 0:21:32.760 mention it in here? The smart Things Find, that's what 0:21:32.880 --> 0:21:35.760 they call Smart Things Find, and they say they have 0:21:35.920 --> 0:21:40.560 like sixty eight million devices on their network to help 0:21:40.600 --> 0:21:44.000 people find stuff. So it's it's you know, we're never 0:21:44.040 --> 0:21:46.399 going to be lost ever again, folks. This is just 0:21:46.480 --> 0:21:48.879 the way it is. You try to go on vacation 0:21:49.080 --> 0:21:52.280
