The iPhone 7 keynote stopped people from watching porn. Until it finished. (Extra Crunchy, Ep. 54)

2016-09-09
from the giant bomb studios in San Francisco California it's the a provide extra crunching podcast with a number one top apple expert that you need to learn from mr. Brian Tong wow this is these intros are getting more extravagant by the day by the show up you the top guy Thanks thanks man I'm the number one stunner everybody welcome the ex of Apple byte extra crunchy we are here for episode 54 we are gonna recap everything the iPhone pre-orders just went down today technically 12:01 a.m. Pacific time we're also going to talk about our reaction to the keynote I don't know if you saw this show there's this video podcast that kind of started this whole thing that comes out weekly called the Apple bite where I think I was fair but I also went in on Apple it was fair though don't you think yeah I saw an email of someone saying you can you please fire up is all he does is talk smack but you know keeping it real everybody yeah it's just not the case so um we also want you all to be a part of the show what I love is you're getting into the habit of calling our show when something pops in your mind you have a thought idea put this in your phone to the pre-orders then what makes it really tricky is the phone that everyone at least how about this not that everyone wants but the the most highly sought after phone which is the hardest again and typically runs out fast was the jet black 7 plus so when people jumped on to get the jet black 7 plus I was looking at the wait times cuz you can kind of play around with it I myself personally just got a jet black 7 if I did not work for seeing it I will tell you right now I would not have upgraded I would not have upgraded and I use my own money to upgrade because I've got to give you my piece are you mine from my purchases on my plan or no I'm not so buy straight up so yes everyone's like Oh baller no I I have to put down a big fat chunk of change because I'm still using 18 C's legacy legacy unlimited data plan from literally like at least eight nine years ago I'm not gonna get on there quote-unquote new unlimited plan if you draw if you lock into the iPhone upgrade program which allows you to get a phone every year includes Apple care you can upgrade your phone every year but it'll change your data plan your own actual they cheat they put you on their updated data plan so because I'm stubborn and I'm like I'm old-school I stick and just put down the money knowing that I can sell my phone and the difference will end up being around 200 bucks so that's how I approach it yeah that's that's that's kind of how I do it too I sell my old phone for like two or three hundred bucks so the new one cost me you know two or three hundred bucks it's this really amazing tool call it tool called eBay eBay I've heard of it I just started using no I use it all the time so here's the I want to give you the breakdown of how fast the jetpack black seven-plus really went in about the first minute or two arrival times right the goal is to get it on September the 16th drop till increase to one to two weeks this is about in the first minute first few minutes then if you talk about the first 10 minutes when it was available 2 to 3 weeks and then after that it jumped up to 4 to 6 weeks and then about 25 minutes into the pre-order process you're talking about November Wow VAM November Oh Movember are you them do do you do Movember I think it's dirty no I don't I get that I get the awareness but it just a lot of my friends that try to grow mustaches that can't it's just embarrassing I just say don't do it it's uncomfortable don't do it it don't it doesn't look right the other the other issue is that a lot of people try to do direct pickup in stores and when I first and I was one of these people I first chose that option and none of my local stores were available for direct pickup and I got in right away and that actually delays you because then you have to back up and change your options for how you want to pick it up and that caused some people also to be moved lower into the queue that's a bummer so that was crappy but no fear for all those of you who are like I want to just walk up into the store Apple has obviously cut off their ability to to do that per se at least in store but they say that they will reopen in-store pickups reservations on September the 17th at 8 a.m. and this will be specific to the US and the UK so again you may not get on launch day but if you don't want to wait and you want to kind of play with your chances play with fate you can pick it up on September the 17th or you can at least set it up for an order so it was it was popular the jet black was popular because it's like the the color Thayer were like really pushing hard but I think that the other thing that was really my headline my favorite thing about this this whole iPhone keynote thing is this story that was just came out according according to pornhub a specific white website that's used for specific reasons I don't know I think it's about I think it just shows up a lot of gadgets that are like really pretty silicone heavy on the silicone parts but pornhub reports that it saw a nine point five percent drop in global traffic journey for iOS users during Apple's live keynote oh wow so when everyone was getting ramped up for this porn viewing stopped like the iPhone was clearly sexy enough to draw all you porn lovers oh it's amazing now they also saw a similar drop around 8.8% in Safari users so iOS users 9.5% Safari users a drop of 8.8% in use that's weird because you have to watch the keynote in Safari so you do that's weird so that that means they turned their priority away from pornhub and went to Safari so went to that blue key no they the site also reports that 35% of porn hubs daily visitors are on iPhones and iPads Wow they're there they're there going mobile okay now here's the other fun thing I after the keynote finished after it was it was completely you know not not the pornhub users after completion traffic increased back up 6% oh wow it's the power of Apple yeah that's I would not I would not put that past anybody the power of Apple defeats the power of porn so there you go the other thing to talk about just kind of some other details is Apple Care has changed a little bit of how they do business with the iPhone plan now normally in the past when you had an incident or you needed to get a repair it would cost you $99 per repair this applied to screen repairs as well but Apple is doing some good things they are changing this so Apple care does cover you for two years and two incidents okay but instead of charging you $99 for a screen repair they've updated it so that will only be a $29 charge wow that's a big deal that is a big deal huge difference I had to pay like two hundred dollars to replace huge different service pair service repair so at least for the iPhone 7 and 7 plus the Apple Care Plus plan is 129 if you want to get that I honestly get on all my devices and the reason why and I've told people this before is typically something happens to my phone I get it swapped out and then I sell my phone so it's just as good as new nice and then you typically get the most money and the warranty is still on there so it's kind of a strategy that I like to do Apple Care swap out anything that's messed up and then put it right back on the market and then get the new phone there you go this is this is the beat easy way also if you're curious about the iPhone and its performance before the keynote benchmarks leaked which rumor were rumored to be the iPhone 7 of how it outperformed the 6s and the 6s plus which should is expected but also the iPad pro twelve point nine inch they ran new benchmarks this one alleged suggests pretty much that the iPhone 7 plus although Apple never officially says it comes with three gigs of RAM so all you people that are like always about give me more RAM do more RAM and sometimes people get obsessed about that not just the general day-to-day experience you'll use the iPhone 7 looks like it seven plus looks like it has three gigs of RAM so you can no longer cry or get mad about the fact that it only has two gigs of ram because sometimes people I think really people obsess about this yeah so um Steven I need all my ram we've talked about like the Lightning port but what is probably the biggest issue that you see just with listening music and we talked about this well it's clearly I mean charging your phone while you're listening to music right that's that's the biggest thing everyone's asking about do you do that yes when I'm sitting at work I'll listen to music or listen to whatever you know radio whatever on my phone I have it plugged in charging now I can't do that I don't have the fragment yeah you don't have yeah well actually I guess you'll be ok because you aren't getting the phone I'm not gonna get the phone sir no technically you'll be ok but there's so many other people that charge and listen at the same time so Apple is kind of a funny response someone sent an email directly to Phil Schiller and we MacRumors will sometimes surface these emails and put it as a story and a writer wrote in to Phil and said oh they like to use their ear you know they want to listen on their iPhone 7 like they do charging at the same time while having an actual headphone plugged in so Phil Schiller suggested that they just buy an Apple dock the Lightning dock because you can drop it in there but come on it's not like we all know that's something that wasn't necessary before yeah totally I mean like did he check with marketing before he answered that question OTT he check he is well he is ahead himself he's the VP of Marketing check on themselves you check with himself and he said it could go through so that's that lightning dock cost $49 but just a day ago Belkin accessorie extraordinaire released what they have and it's going to be a lightning I guess you could call it not a splitter but it's a lightning adapter a dongle with two ports on it that will allow you to charge through lightning and then listen through the lightning headphone dongle to your music so it but again it's gonna be this other extra pain in the another extra thing that you don't want it's gonna be $40 but at least it's a solution and I said on the show the video podcasts like someone's gonna make a lot of money with this yeah but what's up with wireless charging then it's more no mention at all whatsoever well that's for the next film that's why your that's why you're not buying this that's gonna solve the problem of the iPhone 7 charging problem exactly see they created a problem but they're gonna solve it in the next phone and then tell everyone that they solved it yeah so that that's what's going on in the iPhone 7 world but again the charging cable Belkin you're gonna you gonna do good I'm curious how many people are gonna skip the 7 I'm sure there's gonna be a huge number but it seems like the sales are pretty strong already so well what i find what i find is ultimately i put out a poll on Twitter and I asked if you're gonna upgrade or not upgrade and it was pretty close it was like a 55 to 45 and 55 percent we're gonna upgrade and when I say I put out a poll I think around like 1,200 people responded and really all it comes down to is just your upgrade cycle right you can talk about how I don't want this phone oh it's not that good or I'm those people typically aren't even eligible to upgrade like they don't need to but if you're someone who has a phone and you love tech and you've had a phone for two years in general yeah you're probably going to upgrade but if you're smart this year I'm gonna tell you don't upgrade just hang like my fiancee she has a 6 she asked me should I upgrade of course I'm the one that provides her phone for I do I look she pays for like tons of dinners and I feel like bad but we make up for it you know how I don't know as a guy sometimes I like feel weird when I'm like oh I don't want her to pay for me but then it is nice when someone pays for you do you ever write of it right I'm always paying for everything but it is nice when the wife you know like whatever it is yeah cuz I treat show sell treat me I can you treat me I think that it that's how it that's how it should be so um she is not upgrading and I told her it's worth worth waiting out and all of a sudden so it's gonna be what a three-year wait and she's gonna get this dope 10th anniversary iPhone oh yeah I think it's go week wheel we call it the iPhone future the iPhone future all right let's take a break talk about our sponsors who always hook us up and keep this show running handpicked by Apple to be one of the original homekit launch partners iDevices currently has the largest line of homekit products on the market iDevices

right you know it's even bigger saying this in unison ready yes my device is evolving your home it's like I can tell though my brain is a little like tired because I was having trouble reading that like my brain is the way they wrote it it's a little it's a little weird how they wrote it hey I can rewrite us I think it was written perfectly Stephen think I don't send him this part of the yeah I sent him the mid-roll but I don't send me this fuck that was perfectly written expertly written by iDevices amazing writing all right just some quick things about the keynote maybe some under-the-radar stuff that they didn't tell you quietly and this is a this is a a good thing for all of us they've upgraded the iPad storage across the board and also kind of what it sorryi my brain is I can't even see what I'm doing they've updated the storage and they've lowered they've kept it really at the same price or they've even in fact lowered some prices they do have 256 gig options available for the iPads across many of the tiers which is a huge thing this is really specifically to the iPad pro big boys but 256 gigs now are you kidding me it's pretty good but I'm still you know when we gonna get it like a terabyte in there something like that that's probably not for a long time but when I can do real video editing on it like real video editing and real Photoshop like comfortably and expertly I like that word today then I'll then I'll put down the change and say yeah give me a one terabyte terabyte me right now terabyte me is that the new show yeah my iPad fills up quick with videos you know so so yeah check that out iPad lovers we are not expecting any upgrades this year from a standpoint of an all-new processor design it looks like that is going to get pushed until next year so just sit tight it might be early next year it might be mid next year but iPad momentum really isn't there and and we've seen it continue to dip it's the type of device that you use for years it really is and the current iPad line the 12.9 in the 9.7 are more than ample right now there's nothing that's being developed that is requiring us to get a new iPad pro true dat Mac Mackel Ciara our favorite friend it'll be available September the 20th but also if you're part of Apple's developer community the gold master public beta is also I believe they just made it available so that is gonna be yes it is been available to the masses so this is not the the gold master is literally the official kind of what goes out but people that are part of the beta program or earlier to kind of get a little sneak peek and get a little access earlier to it cool that's nice I mean I'm running cited I'm running the gold masters on my iPhone 6s and the gold master of watchlist race on my Apple watch right now and uh we'll talk about those in a second but I did want to kind of transition over all you've heard us talk so much about the iPhone I mean we got to regurgitate it but I haven't really had as much of a back and forth with you Beach yeah and I'm just curious off the bat your overall thoughts on the iPhone 7 is just completely lackluster to me I don't care about a camera I don't you know I mean I like to have a nice camera but that's not gonna that's not a selling point for me the headphone thing is a big no-no for me the the ear pods were totally like at first when I first saw them I like oh they look silly right and then thinking about it later they don't look too bad because they really are just just the current ear pods yeah without the cable right yeah just looks funny to us because we're so used to seeing a Knable a cable connected yes but when I heard that it was like a hundred and sixty dollars I was like what never gonna buy that yeah you know you have to do that any time I just thought it was ridiculous but the coolest thing yeah what did you keynote how would yeah what did you like what did you like le Mario Mario Mario Mario nothing no big thing for me see I love Mario I thought Mario was a great I didn't even include it in the show because I'm more mad at Nintendo that this is something they should have done four or five years ago yes quite honestly and so fine Nintendo you're part of the game now I think that people will love the fact that they're but it's not going it's like it doesn't change anything in the land escape of gaming it doesn't change anything in the landscape of devices it's just nice and dope that Mario is on the iPhone finally yeah that's how I see it yes right and I will play Mario on the bus right to work so I'm stalking my kids the kids will love it so you know that's my that was the most exciting thing for me I my iPhone 7 thoughts in a bundle because everyone can hear or have seen a billion things I've said about it I like it I don't love it and I wouldn't upgrade for it but I think it's perfect for someone who is the ultimate camera fiend and really wants at least if you're an iPhone person to have the best camera available to them the other thing though that really stopped me from getting super excited about the dual lens camera and again I think it is great but right now it's going to be a software update for this portrait mode feature now here's the thing portrait mode is only going to work on faces like that was my hunch and then as you've read more right when I see when you hear these announcements you don't know how detailed it gets but portrait mode is only gonna be specific to doing those cool pictures with that bouquet like shallow depth of field blurred out background yeah with faces so you can't do it with food you can't do with inanimate objects you can't do with flowers so it's really going to be limited just to portraits and I'm sorry unless you're super into yourself are you really gonna just orthography yeah even photographers in general are you gonna use that phone just for portraits I think it's nice it's just the beginning it's going to get better okay so I'm not complaining about this I'm just saying it didn't make it compelling for me to be like wow I'm even now flirting with the idea of getting an iPhone 7 plus and ditching the smaller version because that camera is so great and it just wasn't it's not it's great but it's not boom I gotta have this great yeah the cool thing though was the low-light camera you know like being able to take pictures in the dark is kind of a big thing yeah cuz you know a lot of our life we spend in the dark at like parties and yeah nightclubs or whatever yeah so I think that is that is a good thing is every picture you take with an iPhone in the dark looks like crap yeah they don't they aren't the best noisy they aren't the best so I like that they're try improve that but yeah I mean other than that there's really nothing else the portrait mode when I when I saw that actually I was like great now there's more things I have to like swipe lighter or my camera to get to the right camera want to use because sometimes you know you're trying to get a picture in a hurry and then you're on square you're like I'll crap and then you get you like swipe and you get to slow-mo or time lapse or something you're like ah so you know it's like more crap to go through yeah for me I thought it was a nice upgrade if you're in the market to upgrade but that's kind of sounds like sounds like par for the course the dual lens camera was and here's the thing even though we're talking about it it maybe might indicate that this wasn't a powerhouse keynote but the dual lens camera was the best thing about the keynote to me from a feature standpoint now some people might argue about the air pods we can talk about that what do you think about the Apple watch a nice a nice bump up the Apple watch this look cool yeah does it come did it make it's not compelling argument for you to buy one no because of the price but if the price was right I would probably buy one I think the interesting about the Apple watch for me is in watch OS trace completely makes it a watch worth having but the way that I use the watch the new features that they added were really specific to two groups hikers slash runners and swimmers yes and so if you don't fall into those two groups specifically there's plenty of runners that have an Apple watch right now the GPS on the Apple watch is going to make it great but for example me I don't go on hikes all the time no there's some people that do I'm not swimming laps all the time either it'll be yet and I'm not a con I used to swim when I was younger but I don't swim all the time like as my primary form of exercise so quite honestly for me the way that I use my Apple watch none of the features that they added changes how I feel about the Apple watch yeah I mean it's all about watch o strace really I mean maybe if there was some integration for golf or something which there probably will be there's some apps that do it yeah totally I use some apps on my phone actually but I maybe that would be a selling point for me but yeah I mean like you or you're even saying if you're gonna play basketball you're gonna take off your watch you're not gonna we're gonna play some sort of physical sport you're gonna take off your watch yeah so yeah it's it's tough one so naughty one looks cool though yeah the night I mean like you like oh you like the Nike one that's kind of that branding and can you support the support the running aspect the thing about the Nike Apple watch that people need to be aware about is that you're really gonna get a couple things with it you're gonna get the same exact functionality as an apple watch series too but the benefit of having the Nike watch is a they're sporty sport band okay and B the Apple watch Nike Plus Edition will have specific kind of like watch faces for it that are that have that fondant integration but the actual Nike Plus run app that is going to be updated for that's available on all phones so the difference is that the GPS is gonna be integrated on that watch which helps but it's not some people like worried that oh this is like a super exclusive watch like the app is still going to be available for you so yeah it's just it's just a funky colored watch that they can sell in a Nike store basically yeah yeah and that for Nike look for Knight lovers of the brand it makes sense it's like I described it like if you like the Iron Man's Samsung Galaxy phone and you're an Iron Man fan you probably got that if you're super Nike hardcore enthusiast that runs you're probably gonna end up being that person that buys the Nike Plus Apple watch Joe so um nice update I did pre-order for the record I did pre-order an iPhone 7 jet black just cuz it's jet black but that's for me to play around with in review I did order an Apple watch series too but also with watch show us trace on this current Apple watch the battery life is basically about the same it actually seems even a little better and so that's not even compelling for me to get an Apple watch - just a slightly better battery yeah and the GPS but I'm gonna check it out and probably play with it for a couple of weeks and then just return it be through apples normal return policy but I just want to see how much different is it and really doesn't make a difference for me and my hunch right now is is that it won't too much so we'll see how all that plays out and then finally you know the air pods arguably the the most buzz worthy talked about part of this whole keynote was the air pods and I love the tech inside of it the technology G is something we have never seen before Apple's custom W one ship that really deals with the communication with how it talks and sinks to different I love the fact that it can switch off to multiple products depending on what you're using your watch or your phone or your laptop or your or your iPad that's awesome the battery life is pretty much on par with what we have out there five hours but I just can I cannot get past that design man I was screaming about it at the keynote and then there are specific angles of those air air air pods that just look atrocious yeah like the straight on the straight on look looks like you have either your choice of either tampon golf tee toothbrush electric toothbrush q-tip it cigarette it just looks it looks goofy in five hours to only five hours of battery time like people are pointing it pointing out like if you're on a flight oh yeah five hours you're screwed unless you have some sort of battery with you you know and and yeah I don't know what the sound quality is gonna be like battery life it's yeah it's there's a lot of things and 160 bucks 150 959 that's ridiculous that even even with the charging case like you said okay it's five hours of battery life right you have this charging case that gives you 24 hours more but you still have to put them in it yeah you have to how are you exactly so you hand them in there for a lot for a little while all right yeah you can't use it uh and I will be the first to say that I know exactly how apples singing I think this is a great move from a standpoint of the future like I'm gonna get an A headphone with a w1 chip in it but I'm gonna get the beats what is it the beats power it's the power three wireless ones it's there if they're workout ones I love the to the version too but I'm gonna get the third the third generation that's coming out sometime in October I think it's it's the power beats three Wireless sorry that's what they're called because I love those and they hook around the ear and they hold and they still feel like nothing's there because this little strap that's really like non-intrusive goes behind red but earbuds have to fit your ears - that's the thing out any earbud has to figure you're never certain ones have fit me better than others the current ear pods fit me the best but well I just look like I really like the way the current ear pods work and fit my ear yeah and these look exactly like them so I'm sure these will fit my ear you know it's just a matter of the price and then a lot of people were talking like in our office like what happens if you lose one like are you gonna go to Apple and and they're gonna sell you one there where's they not where's the fine my air pods function that yeah that was not discussed it needs this is a real first world problem issue that we need to resolve where find my air pots yes it's possible to do right I'd then the good thing is I think you'll see like we you might randomly come across a straggling air pod like on the ground like lonely like in the corner on a sidewalk all dirty and will you put that in your year well no way but again I think the technology is amazing it's only going to get better give me give them give Apple about two years when some of this some of these chips can be more miniaturized and basically fit into the earbud yes and I think it'll be it'll be a different story but they are kind of getting people comfortable with the idea of it we know that Samsung has their ikonics earbuds that have heart beat tracking in them already oh yeah well biragi has their own ear buds as well so this is going to happen it's just it takes kind of gradual steps but apples twist on the technology with a w1 chip is what makes this really special and I'm more curious about how that w1 chip technology is going to be integrated in the future and with better design and then I think then I'll get really excited about it and for people that are early adopters you'll know who their early adopters on this one are oh yeah you will walk on the street you will yeah but if Apple needs to drop the price by at least $100 seriously well I think that here's the thing any Bluetooth headset right now that's Wireless is already okay I don't want to say any but some of the quote unquote more popular brands yeah are already like a hundred plus easy for wireless Bluetooth headsets I think that's that's just because it's such a new thing that people aren't used to and it's like it seems like such a luxury you know I'm gonna get some wireless headphones I'm willing to spend the money but it's just now that Apple's doing it everyone's gonna do it and they're just there's gonna be so many of them to choose from the price has to only come down you know what you know what someone's gonna do and it'll be silly and I'm sure Apple discussed this but they decided not just purely have because of aesthetics someone's gonna make a cable that clips to both air pods and goes behind your neck yeah and that's and people are gonna probably buy that and a to keep them together so there's a wall together so you won't lose you know they can't really pop out of here like that's one of those things right like tech here's my best comparison or argument about this Google glass was an amazing technology but it looked so people could not get past how they look Apple earpods do not look nearly as bad as Google glass but if you read comments one of the main reasons why people don't to read reasons why people don't want to get this is a the price and that's always subject to what you're willing to pay but be the second most common reason is because of how they look and you can't ignore it you can never ignore that yeah you can never ignore that so this whole transition between tech and I guess aesthetics I can't wait to see who in the office gets them first well you up pre-order them and I'll wear them for I'll try them for I don't even think I'll wear them regularly I I will try them out but the other thing that I'm curious about is so they talk about double tapping for Siri but then a lot of headphones have a remote control or the ability to tap on them to change your music or your tracks I do it all your call so is it gonna be a it can't all be on that one side will once I'd be like music control and then one reply sorry yeah there's gonna be so I just they didn't get into it enough because I know it's early but it's gonna be interesting to see how they actually put this all together yeah so I'm not I just think they're they just I would they're something I would never wear regularly just the way they look is just too silly for me that's what it comes down to for me but the tech on point okay um we kind of like went through all of that but I've done one thing that I want to tell people don't forget about the MacBooks all right everyone oh yeah I had a lot of people say what happened to the MacBooks and we weren't expecting necessarily an actual you know MacBook release we are looking towards that potentially in October that's what all indications point to so for all of you that missing out look to October someone even wrote Tim Cook directly and said are you pulling away from the Mac line and Apple again the Mac line may not be there most what's the word that I'm looking for because my brain is totally dead right now most popular your most popular most lucrative category right now but it still is a it's one of those tried-and-true you're going to bring this much to our bottom line from the Mac books and it's Mac line and it is a part of their identity so they're never going to abandon it they're never going to ignore it but we are expecting something in October IMAX MacBook Pros we might see some other things but again you know iPads look towards next year and Mac's will be the main focus for before the end of this year yeah we all remember the iconic moment when Steve Jobs took one out of a manila and below that was yeah that was the magnate error I have I still have that MacBook Air really yes cool I still have that model I didn't get the first gen I got the second gen because they finally put some real power into it much like their current MacBook like ultra thin that thing is amazing but it just has it's very weak yeah it's super weak Plus lack of ports that's Apple's big on like getting rid of all the ports now and that drives everyone crazy yeah it's it's a little insane so let's go check out our voicemails we have tons from all of you so we will get right into that all right hey Brian hey Beach this is Kenny from Texas kind of a marketing question I was watching the keynote and just kind of struck me how they're complicated and complex you know the keynotes are and talking about the phones and the cameras and all the specs and I remember reading some books and articles about their marketing before and how it was well spec's and more about the look in the feel and how you know what a pleasure it was to use all of their products so I kind of wanted to get your thoughts on whether or not you've seen that shift whether is it a result of just the phones being complicated now is that a difference between Tim Cook's Apple versus Steve Jobs Apple so you just love to get your thoughts on that love the show Thanks I think that's a great point that he makes and I think part of it comes down to having Steve Jobs get a give a keynote versus having anyone else give a keynote and you can tell that Steve Jobs is he was a great storyteller he was emotionally invested in the product and there's a difference when he would tell stories of how things came to be or how it affected him where Tim Cook and Phil Schiller just say this is amazing we love this but Steve Jobs would like kind of build stories around it and also you could just in you could tell he was like anything you can there's a sniff test you could tell he was intimately connected to them you would like create a situation when he'd be like sitting in a chair me oh look at mine holding my iPad look how comfortable it is to sit in this chair with my iPad yeah stuff like that you know and yesterday I cut this this super cut every time Apple introduced an iPhone and they say this is the greatest iPhone that we've made as of now you know or something like that and it was funny to see the the evolution of their script because it's felt like the last like four iPhones they were just copy pasting the script from the previous it's like getting right to it and it was like a you know the overall design this is the greatest iPhone that Apple has ever made it's the most advanced iPhone let's bring out someone said to give the demo each one was the same exact but in the beginning with Steve Jobs it was more like organic and he was like I got something for you guys it's really hot they're so excited yeah yeah it was just really interesting to see that progression of how they introduced all the iPhones I remember even here's another point when you guys were trying to edit this piece you kept on saying yes Steve Jobs doesn't really get right to the point he's kind of talking about a little more before he actually says it in fact in some cases he doesn't really right safe does this is the this is the greatest he'll be like like you said you're gonna love what we have here then he you know he doesn't say that generic line this iPhone blank is the blank is blank you've blanked yeah yeah like she said for the iphone 3gs you said this product is one of the this iPhone this new iPhone 3GS is one of the best things I've ever had the privilege of working you know it was like like a person it's like a which is way more personal than like this is the greatest iPhone we've ever made yeah I mean yeah so it was very cool go check out that video yeah so I I agree with you from the standpoint of it's it's more of the personalities involved because you can tell stories about these things you can connect to certain things but it's always about the sniff test and that's one of those call it the reality distortion field whatever you want some people are just better salespeople than others some people just better talkers than other it just comes down to some of that instinctual natural this is who person a versus person B is yeah it's like now the mention of the color is just kind of a mention whereas Steve Jobs is like we got these blue MacBook gatech this ah you know it was like so much it was so different now they're like we have Space Gray and you know it's just very like scripted it's just dry it's it's a lot drier there's there's less heart and more just like oh yeah that's the best way to put there's less heart you feel less heart yeah all right excellent thanks for the call that's great point though Abdul from Iowa checking in hello I will bite my knees Abdul from Ames Iowa and one question 32 gig or 128 gig you get four times and more storage I don't know if I should go ahead and go to 128 gig yeah it's gonna shoot in 4k the picture is gonna be much bigger and the videos are gonna be big files I'm just trying to decide which one is best 32 128 32 I'm not sure alright I'll puke aside please thank you guys bye here let me help you out cuz one of my friends has the same exact issue one of my friends actually has been surviving and I use that word you know loosely and surviving on a 16 gig iPhone 5 or 5s for quite some time and literally he was at the point where he would get a text message and it would say you need you have run out of space you delete like a text chain and they get another text message and it would pop up again like you every action he was doing he had to delete something okay I'm imagine this horrible world for this young man okay so anyways he's like alright well I'm just gonna get the 32 I'm like you know what you might reconsider this because first of all yeah you could talk about 4k video and cameras and apps and all that but 32 now for what these phones do it's gonna fill up the filter fast and especially if you're someone who bought the 7 plus specifically for the camera you have got to go 128 and again again it's a hundred dollar difference between the 32 and one yeah yeah only $100 yeah I believe so okay yeah so just go honestly my recommendation long-term is to go 128 now you want to go a large you want to get 256 you want to get crazy like that then do 256 but I would say 128 would be a would be a smart choice just in the long run especially think about all these apps that are using more resources higher fidelity textures and I'm not talking about Instagram or Twitter I'm talking about other apps you know are these devices are multimedia machines go for 128 that's my recommendation yeah I agree I agree cuz unless you're into like managing your phone you know like every few months that's connecting it to iTunes and taking everything off and backing it up then yeah definitely get a bigger phone so you have to worry about that stuff so okay next call hi this is Rodrigo from Brazil I think it's bad when the keynote speak the best thing in the keynote speak is Pokemon girl there's nothing to do with any Apple products just spoken one go so I don't know if that call if that was his favorite thing I guess to him Pokemon go was the best thing about the keynote because he was like that was the best thing I'm like well maybe that's he thought that was the best thing no I'm thinking he's he's saying that I think he's thinking that Apple was thinking that was the best things they spent so much time on it he's a date about it they spent a lot of time on that it was it was about equal time as the actual Apple watching it but I hate you gotta love it we live in a new time a whole new world yes sir yes sir okay Mike from Cambridge UK hi Steven hi my name's Mike from Cambridge UK just wondering wondering I guess maybe this is an eventualities I don't know is the do you think the iPhone 8 will have the dual lens sort of thing I think I'm waitin fat to uh to show up it's kind of hard to choose me anyway there we go right this man is the smart man I literally had this conversation about men and I kind of did it with the wing cream like I just can't wait for that dual lens camera to be in the regular-sized iPhone 10th anniversary phone that's what I'm hoping I'm really hoping that so I hope he's on the same page I hope Apple is on the same page as him and apples on the same page with me because if so oh man and by that time you're gonna be able to do this a bouquet effect with so many more different things so yeah so many more yes I am down with that okay last call George Haines from Houston Texas my birthplace hey stout hello this is George Haines Houston Texas I believe it was genius of Apple to allow the new iPhone to delete all our ultimate expectations so they could deliver a greater than anticipated keynote I was impressed until they showcase the new airport after that I found myself questioning an entire keynote and I want to buy anything however I do have two questions with a new tier two series i watch and the nike wired to be able to do the same things if not what you think be the difference between the two and my second is do you think the barrage of headphones would be a good option for the new iphone was whole thanks I think that the bra geezer bra see I honestly don't know if they actually I called it biragi from day one and then I started calling it bra G and then I switched back to biragi it's like bougie so I'm gonna go I'm gonna go with my man to say broschi so here's the breakdown brah brah G just on Monday two days before the keynote announced a new or more affordable version of their wireless headphones that are 119 now there they have they don't they aren't touch control earbuds but they are an earbud design they don't have these long what Apple calls shafts on them mmm I feel like I've talked about the air pod so much that my brain is just like mush right right so these the bra G's are 120 dollars the entry-level model is which they just announced on Monday still think that's too expensive well then you're gonna have to wait they're like your Apple iPhone is gonna market us so we better jack the price up but but here I'll tell you why the bra G original ones which do everything they're waterproof they have heart rate monitoring they are touch tap controls they don't you don't need to press physical bonds that are touch like that's cool those are $2.99 $2.99 they come with their own charging case but they're $2.99 I guess I'm like and they have an intern they can be used on their own because they have storage on them for music playback that's pretty cool yeah that's $2.99 so you basically have like 300 and like mp3 wireless wireless bud music players in your ear that's what the broschi $2.99 one so that's pretty cool see for that you're kind of like huh that's not the price is still but see but these aren't I mean I think this whole bluetooth headphone world it's they've got to be at least one 120 yeah right now so we will we'll see I mean I have never been able to check them out they have like different fittings sleeves on it that's also the other thing the earbud ones they come with different sizes for different ears that I Apple earpods one size hmm it's not gonna one size will not fit all we've it just it just won't so if his recommendation is what it did he asked what he should get yeah and he was also asking about the Nike watch and the regular Apple oh yeah so third yeah I guess I should answer his question so I would say go buy what fits the best for you and what you like how it looks I think the bra just look better because they're just less obtrusive and they're also $10 cheaper but if it fits good then go for it but they do not have any touch controls they have like physical button controls on on the 120 design now from a Nike I think we talked about a little bit the Nike watch versus the regular Apple watch they're going to both do the same exact things the difference is that the Nike watch has a different band it also has some wall people watch wallpapers that you can use but the Nike Plus run app that is kind of this whole platform where you tracks your steps and gives you reminders and motivational things that's gonna be available on both so I would if you're really Nike fan and you like how that one looks go buy both the things you're talking to me about is all about personal preference and looks sure so go buy that and own it the Nike one does look cool it's got that whole like mat you like that support you like that yeah that whole volt the volt yellow action going on everything like that you like the Nike Vapor drivers for golf or pretty cool looks exactly like one of those that's pretty sweet alright ladies and gentleman boys and girls if I sounded a little low-energy it's kind of just cuz my brain has been destroyed this week so happy aren't you feeling it too oh yeah I think we're both feeling it we're like our laughs are like hahaha we're like
