hi I'm Kent German I'm here at CES 2012 the scene it staged for special edition of dialed in i believe on episode 206 for i remember correctly i'm here with all my tough jessica doll court our senior associate editor are very new associate editor Lynn law she's been on the job how long a week I think four days before see ya for day seven he or she is at CES so it's kind of a crash course and tech reporting we believe i did a trial by fire around here yeah we really do how's your 11 day work week how's that going it's been great it's like 12 hours a day no sleep and yeah running around a lot ok good and then we have Brian Bennett who was also somewhat new to seen it but comes to us from a lot of great tech reporting background and we're here to talk about what happened here at phones it's a big phone show absolutely i mean compared a couple last couple years don't you think like huge last year was pretty good but this year was definitely something that would require us to sit and take notice jessica spincake even care very careful notes about how many phones we have yeah our stats so what are some of the stats okay so they announced 21 phones so far and i think we're done with the announcements here so 21 phones that i don't think so yeah only one of them so far was Android Ice Cream Sandwich there were two windows phones and one of them we knew about one of them we didn't and five of the phones that were announced have the word galaxy in their name because they're part of the samsung galaxy line can I just say like are we in an air of long phone names last night at t-mobile we had samsung galaxy s2 blaze 4g yeah yeah and then there's also this i don't count CSU skyrocket HD okay so i think i don't even know how to put the marketing in these phones like it's a little plaque on the store it's just gonna be like yo so um we be a big phone show lot to see what are we most excited about Brian what do you what I think I know but yeah I know I want to hear I've been talking about this phone second I found out about it on yeah that was the hour of like Verizon press releases every five minutes yeah we were recovering the 18 c press conference and all of a sudden boom verizon comes out with with a whole bunch of new phones one of them is the one I'm really excited about it's the motorola droid 4 so if any of you guys out there actually our original droid owners and really love that keyboard but we're waiting for an Android slider with dual core processing and LTE data access I mean this phone has got your name all over it so I have it actually right here if you want to take a look as you can see we've got a big HD screen right here and the phone actually slides open here and we've got a five row core to keep keyboard here so keep I made it I made a big deal about the keyboard you thought it's really cool I mean is it is it one of the best you've seen it's a kind of bordering on like blackberry rim a territory of as far as you know the cage know when I picked it up I first picked it up I was like wow first of all the keys look great you know so you know and also one thing I liked is you know it's backlit and it feels really good when you press is rubberized in very tactile feeling another thing is that it has the whole full qwerty full number roll on top which is really cool plus directional arrows in case you really want that yeah but I mean this thing and also another thing they call it a you know a razor sorry a laser etched keep keyboard which what does that even mean yeah actually use a laser I suing I have to find out but uh also it could be cooler for shot razors out lasers out of it that's right i don't want to be blinded we can sort of we need to start some sort of dictionary of all these like laser at you know laser keyboard and hyper skin back oh yeah and like all of those things really got what does that really mean well actually brightness there's actually something that's even cooler or even weirder is that it's supposed to have a nano around the entire device which repels spills and so it's water-resistant a little bit from where I understand it's a little bit water-resistant I guess again later Alex it's only slightly water-resistant don't spill your drink on it will take three drops but not for right yes not a full glass maybe you sit right for what do we know when that's coming out we I believe a few too I'm not sure though q3 another somewhere in there I'm gonna be a little tension to be a little pessimist or actually it may actually actually know what I think it maybe even coming soon that maybe in the next few weeks so we'll take a look and see when it comes out there's no pricing and I don't believe so but I mean this is a device that a lot of folks have been waiting and on verizon and on variety is Jessica what are you most excited about hey there are free phones i'm going to give a shout out to the first is the nokia lumia 900 that was leaked before the show it was just great to actually see it in person I like the previous version but this one it's it's larger and that beautiful screen really pops out and it so just it looks fantastic it's it's great all right you know what I like about it is like Nokia sofa stunts such a long history of real doing really good designs you know remember those nokia phones in the mid-90s we're like you could just bang that thing around for a bit wasn't recovered of rubber it wasn't like this next tell you know you're supposed to shoot it out of a cannon or whatever like you could drop that thing it last forever and they've always been really good about that good about display and it's nice to see me okay yeah continue that tradition yeah it's a completely original design and i love that the other phone that i like I really liked the LG spectrum from verizon yeah I didn't seen actually haven't got my hands on it you know it's kind of simple in the same way that they Galaxy Nexus is it no real like design you know um I guess Claire yeah thank you I have fun you ask me but it's very simple it's very clean it's got a lot of high-end specs it's just a nice package all together and then I also want to give it a shout out to the pantech first and let's have a look at that as well but I think that pants like really put a lot of effort into that phone there's some nice design Flair yes and and it looks really good and it's going to be really cheap on ATT like 50 bucks and I just think it's great value and that's one of those phones that I think could possibly be a sleeper hit okay I really like it because it's like a lot of people really want smart phone set but it can't necessarily afford the high end stuff and the ones that are on that price range aren't really they don't look very good quality and it's like not really premium yeah it feels really plasticky but the Pantech Burst actually feels like a quality phone and it's only like 49 99 and the specs are good that's a dual-core processor on it there's a 5-megapixel camera there's a front facing camera and it just it looks really cool doesn't have like metal in it at all or any kind of well the backing looks like like textured almost like textured wood grain but it comes in red and titanium and it looks really nice it looks like there is renewed yeah the back we really like those there's sometimes bridges it's like some contouring Marcus words on it there was a ruffle your leg ridges six phones announced at the AT&T press conference on Monday yeah oh the ATT press conference desk assembly hours did your laptop battery lasts oh well I actually our live blogging tool comes over the mobile version so I was live blogging from the mobile tool and then after about 45 minutes in I turned on my laptop because i only get two and a half hours of battery on that what happening this next to me he had like 10 minutes left of juice at the end of the show our news chief declared the press conference longer than avatar oh I read that tweet wasn't your your battery about to explode like your picked up your laptop yesterday night it was like it was like melting yeah I was waiting for flames to start spewing forth from it you're giving it a workout we are so we have some predictions before the show we thought you know we're gonna see your favorite fun oh I guess what's got over me huh I'm sayin I'm gonna say Lumia actually I really like that phone I oh I'm sorry I thought you were the burst you want to say any more about the let me know just get both okay i really like Elena it's got a great design and really the I really love that the feel of it in the hand I love that display and I just I like sort of the angle of it how you move you kind of approach from the side and it bevels in a little bit yeah it's really clever Cicely and I have you I windows phone 7 is something i didn't use for a long time I just you know Banita you know who used to reduce my front sport she was always the person reviewing those and so I never she was in New York so I never really saw a lot of them and then I started using that operating system and I do like if I think it's a nice mesh between it has a little bit of Android it has a little bit of iOS message some of them together and no fan of that phone and I was at the press conference and Nokia was making a big deal with CEO Stephen Elop about you know we're back we're back in the u.s. we're back in North America and actually a tmobile said the same thing last night everybody we're back we're back okay the second blackberry rim said that there yeah exactly I velez respect so this is a show feedback but you're going they're not even here okay for so long nokia you know and a lot of people think about no key in the US and they think well they're just not doing well they're not doing well as a company and that's not really true because so much no kiss business is overseas in emerging markets those little phones that we use ten years ago I mean huge part of the business still that really lost some of the smartphone train because they didn't get with on with carriers here which is so important in this market but it's nice to see that support and see them see somebody really pay attention to Windows Phone 7 see a carrier pay attention to it and I think it's just it seems like a really solid device I haven't used a tin tease used to 18 to sell te right yes okay and you would like to yeah I'm cautiously optimistic in the 18 tues LTE I checked it out in san francisco and this beats were pretty good but i think the the real message with that the true test between that and also Sprint's new 4g LTE network is going to be how it holds up under hood when everybody starts getting the funds when everyone starts using them are we going to see the same problems that we saw in san francisco and other cities like New York was sort of congested PG or never the worst like you know you have to fight for every everything and spectrum is just another thing oh so five from space in this restaurant on the train in the subway like on a sidewalk and yes spectre-2 okay get out of my spectrum yeah but but basically you know I think that these questions are going to be answered down the line in six months and a year from now how well the development is actually going and actually you've touched on sprint that's another big thing to happen here is that sprint you know as a wimax network that's been there for G for a long time and yeah there's been a lot of issues with clearwire Clara are getting funded which of course they're why max partner there were are having enough spectrum and we knew at some point they were going to go to LTE and its then the show they've announced I mean they vote they announced a little while ago but they confirm plans they said I think San Antonio Dallas Houston and Atlanta by the first half of the year and they have introduced two new phones the Galaxy Nexus on sprint with LTE in the LG viper the paper work yes oh and a lot spot that actually switches between wimax and 4G LTE which i think is really smart even though the thing is tall and looks like an anvil it's very handle my bag so the interesting thing about the Samsung Galaxy Nexus is it is pretty much identical to the verizon version that we looked at however it actually has Google Wallet enabled on it yes right that's a big big thing too because sprint is a google partner and things like google voice so if you've got google voice you can very easily get it on your phone and we didn't really use it put on the company card but basically if you either have a prepaid google card or if you've got the city mastercard with paypass then you can start using that right away on the Viper as well which is also NFC enabled yeah we provide you saw a Verizon Galaxy Nexus running Google Wallet at some point or always what are you didn't actually not see yes I actually well I've you know a little while ago I mean people were upset when the verizon Nexus Galaxy Nexus on verizon came out and did not have google i'll support even though had NFC built in so people started to actually hack their their phones to put that capability on them and I hope people i know have already actually started doing that now they've got the app on their phone that allows them to access Google Wallet so it's just interesting I mean I i would love to use use Google wallet's feature especially there's a lot of you know free little deals i can get no free drinks free food free you know I don't even know what toothpaste that we read or something I would love to try that you know so you got you guys here see if you see yourself using it as well like mobile payments on your phone no I don't really like using robots for plenty money to be really long time some use an ATM thank you okay I have a great use case though going to the gym you know let's say leave everything in the office go to the gym next door take stuff with me on the way back I realized oh man i really wish i had a gatorade you know I want to gatorade I don't have anything with me if I had this on my phone BAM Gatorade in hand I think that we're going to learn to use it and the people who thought they never would will sooner or later we could put our IDs on it and then we'll just never have a lot and never windows your phone you can actually just also sew it onto yours so one of the cash people I've got to say yeah for a lot of thing is embrace of all yeah yeah no paper trail how do i doing there are things in gold I don't know anymore I don't anyone know I bought that you know people magazine right nurse exactly so I'm any disappointments so far anything you wish you had seen that we have it I was completely wrong with our prediction I thought there was going to be you I thought this was going to be the Android Ice Cream Sandwich okay there's one Ice Cream Sandwich device everything else is gingerbread 2.3 point six right point by point nine that will be upgradeable later on yeah but you know one thing I can't leave I was wrong okay that was pretty cool is that huawei had to global devices which we're running ice cream sandwich that we took a look at but you know of course they don't have a carrier they don't have any sort of any information about them really but basics of p1 and the p1s and they're gorgeous devices then one of them has like a metallic shiny red coating those the month so you got that you can get the bright yellow cover for the back oh that boy yellow black sorry bright yellow back cover really I didn't even know that oh yeah that's that's pretty that's even better so yeah Bonnie child was taking photos of that yeah yeah I mean it's a pretty you know and it's funny because they look so close so similar to the samsung galaxy s2 it was a little bit i mean the the folks there displaying a little uncomfortable when i said that because it looks it looks so close to that to my special effects I'd something slowly away yeah you know so I don't think they appreciate that comment so maybe a little wrong an ice cream sandwich but you know I think that we I think we we always do that we say we think that is going to eat last year i think for csv probably slip lots more gingerbread cuz you know i was right after the galaxies are the nexus s right sorry remember all these and then we didn't see a lot of tension right it came out early you know i was fri oh and then it was we were also hoping for quad core phones but this is not that show either yeah well there is a quad core core quad core phone sitting around the fujitsu pills oh really yeah but it's behind glass and so i don't think we don't actually know if it's a quad core phone it's like Schrodinger's phone no it is but I mean it's just not we didn't it's not out it's not out on the floor you know found out you can't touch anything no you can't open it up and look out but you could just be saying it's what about Intel's big news last night oh yeah brought about that kind of ramen yeah that was something that was dropped in the middle of the Intel press conference they are lenovo is introducing know they make a lot of species they make a lot of desktops and laptops so did drop a new phone so we'll talk about that in a second we'll take a short break and we'll be back and we're back we're just talking about the lenovo phone this so this is a phone is going to be powered by Intel an Intel processor and it is the lenovo k800 and it was kind of weird because we don't were expecting at all and then they were at the Intel press conference and suddenly it was boom here's a new phone from android phone so i actually i know that brian Tom got to check it out last night and a jmar leaving from download com got to check it out but what do you guys think I mean it was surprised by this news yeah definitely surprised by it and also I'm just kind of wondering how well that's going to succeed don't read it to work there are other companies viewsonic has a phone here that we haven't looked at yet and are they selling those i mean i think that the carriers and the major manufacturers really on the market so it's interesting to see something else especially if there is some sort of innovation on it but i don't know if it's wasted effort or not yeah yeah i mean that's that's a real hurdle you know for them to get a carrier approval for that kind of device but i'm going to throw out a crazy idea what if should--we should we get out of the way yeah shout just duck man okay so I'm thinking you know Lenovo and I heard this from other folks oh I can't take full credit for this but what if Lenovo actually bought black bear rim because they have such like a kind of the business same kind of you know client so can you imagine if that manova phone actually kind of takes some of the business away you know business phone usage away from blackberry yeah I do want to check it out though is but it looks entered you get a spec sir we don't really know a lot there's gingerbread on it I think there's a 5-megapixel camera i think or eight and they were very short on specs very shorter and released your timing or anything like that but that is supposed to be the first of a quite a few intel-powered phones and made by Lenovo avatar by Intel and all Android so another player in the market and then be sent via sonic like you said to write exactly I know so Jessica we were talking to the break Jessica wanted me to mention of course the t-mobile press conference last night lame got to meet us link out to meet a TV star yeah we all took pictures me in Brian two pictures with Carly yeah AKA t mobile tmobile girl with the pink dress and she's super pretty and in real life yeah another thing a trash bag see sure they showed an ad where she was wearing the same dress that she was wearing to the party I know how how weird is it to be like at a party and then see her add like actually I really like because I kind of glanced over at her to see her response because I was sort of on one side you know being sandwiched by Carly t-mobile girl on one side and then add with Carly t-mobile girl on the other side she was looking at it she's gonna like yeah someone asked her how it felt she's like I don't like looking at myself on camera I never seen like didn't understand that really how does she know what I just like ran out of the room screaming every time is your TiVo just screams about I like she's got some program so but there was apprehension event because like we mentioned earlier t-mobile's very much about we're back we're back in the US I mean they've always been here but I mean we're back you know from trying to merge with AT&T we are going to get newer phones we're going to get we have spectrum we got the cash from the mouth of the CEO who came up on stage and actually spoke for quite a long time and what I thought was a very forthright manner and I really appreciated it I thought it was the most honest executive statement summary that I've heard at the show really I kind of I thought it was a little bit of like we're just trying to sell a line here maybe but I think for the most part you go up and you hear the carrier saying things like our network is strong we're the largest 4g network know we're the largest and the fastest and the most reliable and he know they're very good about this bigger that's gaining going up there and he's like the last nine months have been hard right you know well well but I don't think you could talk to anyone in that really end it was upset that that merger did not happen well let me just say one thing i know that i was at a press conference I was on a t mobile device that HTC fort amaze 4g and i was trying to actually get access to just you know tweet tweet deck and all that stuff over 4g at their press conference and I was having connectivity problems because they were using you know what's going on here I mean the same thing was there a sign there they usually have signs at all of these things like to make sure our demos work please turn off your sprint etc 18t whatever a hot spot but I wasn't even hot I was amusing as a hotspot is your name cell phone that's it that's all I wanted to do but and then you guys and then afterward you drop by the blackberry thing that was not a lot there oh yes when and I went to the blackberry event it was a informal cocktail party type thing but everyone was dressed in black anyway I didn't get the memo well you're the cosmopolitan I think that's like that which I wear dresses in black the uniform it's very fancy but unfortunately there wasn't any news there there had people showing off the blackberry playbook to OS which is really uneven if it's actually out yet I think it's more like a in development or for developers and I kept pushing how it's supposed to be you know a segue over to blackberry 10 in which isn't coming in which which is coming out at some point but to be fair we knew all of this we knew that they weren't going to announce a product we knew we knew beforehand that blackberry 10 wasn't going to come for a while but we don't know we've the president it's been a long time that we've known that it has been one it's bed you know and ok not just one for next month the next month and but rim is still had a big showing here not in terms of products but actually their booth eats up about half of the floor of the South Hall just right over there yeah I mean they definitely helped have deep pockets still so so maybe we'll have to wait for mobile world congress for that right of course that's a big show next month in barcelona we're sort of biggest mobile show in the world and will be there to bring you all that but that should be blackberry 10 thanks for cross what are the phone did you bring right oh yes so motorola was nice enough to actually bring another phone that was announced this week this is the droid razr but it's the purple virgin check this out here you'll want to take a look so we've got its got purple all around the sides it's really thin the same thickness as the original droid razr but it has a purple along here along the edges and just you know along back here so if you like a very metallic purple device with android thats you know really fast this could be what you're looking for it's pretty yes i have to admit it's pretty i'm not sure if purple is my thing but yeah I've been hearing a lot of different things on the internet some people say that's really pretty other people say that looks really ghetto and I'm like I guess I mean color is such a you know probably no respiratory yeah exactly there was a period I don't know Gotye forget when it was few years ago where we had a bunch of purple phones like right in a row six purple phones and like purple was like the new black for a little bit and then it blew was after that so always changes I think black and gray are the most minute colors or white you throw away yeah why is it become the new black yes yeah there is a like it's the new white is the new purple one of the new sony ericsson phones the is the Xperia S I think minutes sorry sony phone not sony ericsson his comes in white as well yes i would not away ok so i just see those phones yeah um this is the motorola this is the motorola droid razr maxx when I can run so me and Brian werlla campus and we kind of really dig it only because there's 33 Alison only because there's a 3300 milliamp battery in the back yeah like Max our man you barely notice that it's still super it's still super thin yeah we compared to many let's see that one compared so there must have been complaints because you can't remove the batteries in these phones right yeah yeah yeah that's a major issue yet yeah and the people have motorola we're just giving us different specs of course it totally depends on your individual usage but they said 20 1.5 hours straight talk time eight full length movies back to back and yeah that'll help that'll have to ride home do a lot easier so basically Motorola's lesson is that thin isn't always the best right because they have to add to add more battery they have to like pop it out so instead of having this notched back at almost not that way that's so pretty been there it almost goes straight yeah so pretty sweet thing was that like this is really thin but didn't want that they now had the thin phone yeah but that's gonna last for like a week I was gonna announce that was Samsung man okay I mean soonest is gonna it's just gonna disappear it's gonna be like being in a turn on outside and you're not going to see anything so why cause when it's too thin people don't like it just have like a really fragile feel and well it's sharp in your hand I got it during blanching doing it hands-on with your my tripod and auto focus on the phone like that I'll have it you know facing front and as I turn it over the autofocus will just like lose track and all of a sudden everything blowers out so it's like it disappears you know sony ericsson sorry we uh we did announce two phones i keep saying that i'm gonna have to get out of that it is just so Nina no need so it's just Sony and they did announce two phones to Sony Xperia ion and the Sony Xperia S the Xperia S completely confused me at first because I thought didn't they already announced this the Xperia Arc S but I completely different so you took a look at experian I on at first yes and yes so well the big news is really it's a android it's a gingerbread unfortunately it's not you know ice cream sandwich but it has it is I know what's going on you know we just get the promise oh it's coming it's coming they say it's coming just like you know with the droids here from enroll their supposed to get ice cream sandwich soon but the ion basically has you know things like a 2 megapixel HD camera in the front and a in a 8 verse actually a 12 megapixel a pic yeah that's right that's what it is so 12 megapixel main camera which is pretty impressive well I'll see your 12 megapixel camera and i'll raise you 16 megapixels with the HTC Titan too well there's a there's you know Daniel actress over the hilton so I didn't need plow that's that's a lot of megapixels you know we can took some pictures on the Titan too yeah I'll a nice yeah actually um you think megapixels again but also with the sony damn i want to say ericsson all I know but anyway with the sony phones the megapixels is again an issue we talk about a lot if they didn't change the light sensor if the rendering software isn't any good or even optics and that the lens is not so hot yeah it may not even matter right exactly so we'll be putting all of these through major camera tests as well awesome yeah and I mean you know cameras your point shoot camera seem to be fading away as people are using their phones as the cameras now so it's definitely more important now to actually have a good camera in your phone you know and especially when you want to send it over to Twitter or Facebook or something like that it's so much easier to do it from phone and some kind of fancy internet-enabled camera or something like that and I know you're big fan of the Titan too I like the Titan to their original Titan you know I got into some arguments with some other you know mobile bloggers about the best Windows Phone out there and they said the type when he's in person argument so were they over Twitter or they all they came to blows okay cystic us but I basically said that i liked the basically windows phone version of the samsung galaxy s2 line and they basically said that they liked the titan and i found the titan to to be so much better because yes they have increased the battery life they've increased the camera its 4g LTE and then they also just kind of give it a little lick of paint so it's a different color it's a soft touch finish which is I just think friendlier to hold and there's a little texturing on the back cover as well so all in all I think that's a much better device and if AT&T didn't have the Lumia 800 then I would definitely say that the Titan two would be the best device but I think it's going to be neck and neck for a while until we get our hands on tests it's nice to see to Windows Phones you know we like two of them they're they're really cool see how they compete I want to see Verizon pick up another windows phone yeah they don't act and let's prank that one too we have a sprint picked one up in a long time they have resin has one no that's a good thing okay oh that's right I forget yeah once a verizon hasn't picked one up either but AT&T is definitely the windows phone you know patron yeah man they were getting there very much capable t-mobile you know they did that actually the Lumia 710 one on sale today Brian reviewed that phone a little while and some time is it pretty you know it's not bad I mean it's like fishing for its price right it's like 49 50 bucks basically and you get all the basic features and it runs you know windows phone mango very well you know no no performance hiccups or anything like that and you know you can do everything that you can do on an android phone with a device like that the only I think sore point is that it has a 5 megapixel camera so not megapixels for me but but for that price I think it's yeah this is that guy that came in like that's right yeah comes in white and black and maybe some other colors you can add on to the back yeah globally I think it comes in like pink cyan yellow this so here's the thing though I mean for windows phone and nokia nokia is like yeah we're back we're back in the US we're really going to give this a push but so far AT&T has the highest concentration in windows phones t-mobile's next nokia and microsoft are going to have to get windows phones on all four carriers and they have to be real offerings oh so here's something interesting too we met with the limb brian and i met with a microsoft yesterday to talk about Windows Phone and we asked the question about the incentives because there was no yes a rumor story that the salespeople were going to be given incentives so money basically if they could sell a certain because there's been a lot of reports that carrier staff are actively discouraging people from buying windows phones they go into the store and they say no you and they asked for in customer asked for windows phone let's say no you want to get know you want to get Android or you want to get iOS something else right well actually it's funny because the Microsoft representative actually said that a lot of it has to do with pushing services so you know maybe the windows devices did not have hot spot or other ways for to paying into some of the carrier services that revenue for them so but now it's getting more advanced of hotspot there's all these ways to share content in-stream video and all that stuff so tablets things like that yeah so all those devices and the I think the take-home of the story is that he was saying since there are these other ways it might just be that sometimes the representatives would push something if they were given like you know extra payment for selling a bundled service or more devices and so they gravitated toward Android where they could do that and then also i think the report was that it was eighteen t who's guilty of this and eighteen t has come out and said that's not it that's not how they operate they don't work on commission that way yeah so it sounds like that report was maybe a little bit false but microsoft definitely knows that they mean to get into the retail stores if they're going to sell them more carriers or more manufactures board and a better app and more strength and strength in the app community the app developer community because those things that really make operating systems from they've actually the absent skyrocketed they were in eighteen thousand then thirty thousand and now they've reported that across the five hundred fifty thousand Mahroug the quality quality there too yeah i mean i think i just have to make Windows Phone cool which it's kind of difficult because like a brand perception yes because like I was turning around you know one of the windows phones on t-mobile and I started using an among friends and family and everyone was like what is that is that a windows phone you know like well yeah I think your windows and people i mean i wrote a call a couple weeks ago about why we need Windows Phone 7 a lot of comments work I can't buy it because it's microsoft and its windows and it's I mean I think that's a not really the best attitude about it we had a way to approach it but yeah then they you throw in windows and people get a little they think of the community the computer operating system and they get all freaked out about it so no I do the cool tech test on my 15 year old nephew who's really into technology and all the cool stuff and I brought him the samsung focus flash and the samsung focus s which is the one that's like the galaxy s2 phone but on his phone and he basically is playing with it I'm sure he'll think you can do this this and this you can change the colors you can do all this stuff it's 50 bucks you know for the newsflash and he hands it back to me and he's like I don't want to look at this anymore
