IFA 2014 Final Vlog

2014-09-10
hey it's Josh regard from android authority what's going on everybody and I'm coming to you live from Aoife in Berlin once again and this is probably going to be the last time that I'm going to do so here at Berlin for this wonderful trade show that happens at this time of year every single years my second time being here I am pretty much going to call it a wrap after this particular video but I still wanted to bring you a couple of vlogs I wasn't able to vlog too many times this year but I gave you a couple and this is the second one obviously and I wanted to give you just sort of my thoughts on the entire experience we had a lot of work to do considering there were so many devices that were coming out that I wasn't able to give you too many looks into the behind-the-scenes type of things but I will be able to give you a couple of really nice ones here in this particular video but first talking about the actual venue itself obviously it's the same experience as last year mostly a couple of places did change their locations in particular Samsung was the one that decided not to stay in the north area which was kind of the main entrance for us but instead they moved to the south entrance and this is the south entrance with the ephah sign and as you can see right over there that is their building you can see Samsung right over on the corner there that entire building is theirs and it's pretty ridiculous I'm not going to lie Sony was able to be at the forefront when he came to the north entrance and they had a very good booth booth as well white all over the place and it was very similar to what we expect from them and that's the same with all of the companies including LG who obviously had a huge display for their g-watch are but we also got a lot of stuff from Huawei we got stuff from a sous Lenovo and even motorola we were not expecting to see motorola here at Aoife but luckily we got a nice presentation with them we were we were able to get that sort of special invite I guess you could call it and we were able to go in and get a nice presentation on it I really loved what i saw and i think the moto x is a great phone i'm certainly going to get my own and it's got to be in bamboo this time around cuz i missed the boat last time but in any case we had that and a bunch of wearables the Moto 360 we also got to look at that Motorola event but also lgsg watch our and the ax Suzanne watches actually in the round revolution is kind of happening right now and I really don't blame anybody for really trying to harness that particular form factor because everyone's kind of pining over it but the Zen watch is probably the one that I feel like anybody could work and that's I put my points on for that I will probably have to say that it's the Sony Xperia z3 tablet compact now obviously we have things like the note 4 we have all these phones we have the wearables but honestly I'm in the market for a PlayStation 4 and the very prospect of being able to play and stream games from my ps4 that i'm about to buy soon on to my tablet if I can't play on the TV is extraordinary I cannot wait to be able to do that and honestly it's one of the coolest features at least in my estimation I'm going to be playing PS for a lot and being able to do that anywhere in my house or within the network is something that I can't wait to do so that would be my pick for my favorites from my favorite tablet but luckily for me I'm like last year when I was kind of having a little bit of trouble dealing with being here kind of exactly like fully on my own this year I actually had quite a few friends I mean I've been at this for a couple years now and I'll get into that in a little bit but I've been at this and for a couple years now so I've made some friends in the industry and you probably saw on my Twitter G+ and Instagram feeds that I have been featured on a couple of particular shows and podcasts one in particular was the mobile geeks live stream which I if any of you were able to watch it then thank you so much for tuning in no matter where you are in the world a shout out to my dad and my girlfriend for both watching it at their respective times i think it was midnight in the philippines for my dad and then 830 in the morning for my girlfriend back in LA but it was really great to be able to do that it's just such a great time we're able to sit down talk about all of these devices and releases in ways that we kind of weren't able to before because we're used to doing so in a very particular way in front of the camera then after that just such an honor for me to be able to be on the pocket now weekly podcast with michael fisher and taylor Martin those two are really genuinely great guys and I have actually known the two of them for a little bit now but it was really at this show that we really were able to hang out a lot more and I will continue to do so probably a little bit later tonight before we call it a wrap on this entire trip because we're all leaving tomorrow you always see other people's content whether it's on their websites or their videos or anything like that but sometimes you don't really get to know them as people you don't get to you know you want to be you got to cross the line from being professionals to actually being personal friends you know and it's it's kind of a blessing to be able to have that relationship with certain people so i've been i've been at this for two years when i was a kid i really wanted to write about technology and now I get to do so I don't only get to do so I get to talk in front of a camera present myself to all of you guys put myself out there and you guys all seem to really enjoy what it is that I do and I really I really want to thank all of you out there not just the fans but you know the guys at android authority for having me on the team and just you know all these people for being gracious hosts like for example Nicole and Sasha mobile geeks have always been very very friendly with me and whenever I've had any trouble they've always helping you out so I called it my guardian angels and really it's that experience with all these different types of people no matter who they are it seems that you know I really am reminded of just how lovely it is to do what I do it's a lot of hard work but it all pays off in the end and half the reason why I pays off in the end is because of you guys I'm coming up on what is now going to be my third year here at Android authority I'm not playing on going anywhere I really enjoy what's going on here i really enjoy where I am so I hope you guys will tune in and stay tunes so that you can still see me grow I'm sure I look quite different from last year and I'm sure that's gonna happen again next year you know things always keep changing but I will always strive to get better and better at what I do and I hope you wouldn't enjoy that evolution just as much as I enjoy
