iPhone X: Time Magazine's top 25 best inventions of 2017 (Apple Byte Extra Crunchy Podcast, Ep. 110)

2017-11-17
good afternoon good morning depending on where you are on the planet earth my name is Steven Beach a producer for the Apple byte extra country podcast with your host mr. Brian Tom welcome to the show welcome it is Apple byte extra crunchy extra money we are here with episode 110 it is the basically a week after we posted our Apple byte version of the iPhone 10 review tons of stuff coming in here but again this show is all about you all so you know how to be a part of the show guess what all you got to do is call us the number magic number is 1-866-376-8255 I've found it for a video so yeah so it's this kind of robot but it has this head that swivels it looks like something from you know a Pixar movie it has expressions and gestures that move sure you're like I'm not gonna pay 899 dollars for one of these things but what makes it special is kind of like how they're starting to add these human-like gestures that we can relate to like you know it twerk it it kind of Bob's its head or swivels it it kind of reminds you of like stuff that bb-8 did where you saw an Android type robot droid have movements like that I thought that was a cool one another cool one the ember mug have you seen this thing bro no no I gotta check it out the ember bug is 7995 it's a ceramic mug with this base that's a heater it's a smart mug so they always talk about like look your coffee all you coffee lovers out there for Raj Mathai is still watching with this I know he takes his coffee but you know what you your coffees gonna taste different whether it's super hot or super cold so this mug heats it just right you can set it anywhere from 120 degrees to 45 degrees Fahrenheit and it is like the sweet spot it's 7995 for this mug this might be like pensive yeah but dude it keeps your we're it we're first of all problems these days it keeps your coffee like perfect look I think there's a lot of Craig Wright people that gonna go for that so that's just a couple things that were fun obviously the iPhone 10 is on that list I had nothing but overall you know I have my own criticisms of it but at the end of the day if you want to get this product you're kind of you know that there's not gonna be a headphone jack you know that there's not going to be a home button there's gonna be no touch ID but if you're you're really mean ready to jump on kind of this is Apple's concept car of the future and you're okay with that I think you're really gonna love it if you're not and you're not ready to that's fine but that's who they're kind of catering to the hardcore gadget people the hardcore iPhone fans and really the hardcore Apple fans but we know that this phone is selling bonkers I think I think the wait time right now is 2 to 3 weeks if you order in the US or Canada so iPhone 10 made times top 25 best inventions of this year I just recorded one thing on this list the portable wearable breast pump that's that's pretty interesting I think we did a review with them but I I wasn't able to be used as a test subject for obvious reasons well I mean I could have but I don't know if it would work I don't think I would begin a minute giving it a proper review dude yeah the legit review for that one alright so we will talk more about currents things happening around the world of iPhone 10 but we're gonna jump into a couple url' a couple kind of like let's look way down the road and talk about iPhone 10 in 2018 are you are you guys do you want to hear about this Beach I do yeah do okay check this out KGI securities and well-known analyst slash supply chain slash rumor gaming chi quo his latest report says Apple will launch a trio of new iPhone models in 2018 so here we go two of those models will be OLED screen based you'll have your current 5.8 inch iPhone with an OLED screen then a larger 6.5 inch screen with an OLED and then a third model that falls in between with a 6.1 inch screen that is going to be an LCD based screen Wow so yeah this is a lot the the report according to Kuo he expects the 5.8 inch model to have the same pixel per inch density that's power 458 that the current iPhone does he also suggests that the 6.5 inch model that will be larger in size will have a slightly higher pixel per inch density which would be at somewhere between 480 and 500 pixel pixels per inch and then the 6.1 inch LCD based model will have a pixel density of 320 the 330 I like to call that model the iPhone blurry because you're gonna be like this is not as sharp as like we're used to seeing but they're trying to target basically this mid-range so bleep saying this out loud is silly a mid-range to low range market with the LCD based 6.1 inch iPhone that's that's what he believes the two OLED screens actually all three phones across the board are expected to get the true depth camera sensor the top-notch phone design and that's gonna that is what is right now reported what will we can expect to see for the new iPhone 10 iPhone 11 iPhone 10 are they gonna give me an iPhone 10 plus they're gonna give me the iPhone dos a keys I mean they'll probably stick with something like an iPhone 10 plus for the big one we'll see what they call it but 10s sounds weird don't you think tennis looks yeah tennis like like tennis it'll be like iPhone XS it'll be like iPhone extra small come on mister vide it in our chat room is saying the notch on every phone no there's a notch on every one of these phones here or at least four of them we know we've we've said it before notch my iPhone please this is not my knife so then another person in the chatroom I'm sorry to keep referring to jump in it but they're buying is d B DX in the YouTube chat says Brian is OLED really the future I love my ex but I've been told they don't last very long well historically OLED does have image retention and burnin issues over a long period of time I think what'll be interesting to see is we saw those issues creep up on the pixel to Excel screen Apple has said because the thing that's maybe different with Apple screen is that not only is it an OLED screen they they have special chips that also aid in the performance of the screen that is why it was rated the best screen ever on a smartphone by display mate it's both Samsung hardware and Apple's chips working together and then Apple has made it a point that they've optimized software so that it reduces the potential chance for burn in at least after week one and a half week two we are not seeing reports of any major image retention from the iPhone tens yet now that could change right I in a day we all of a sudden it could be like um ya know we're starting to see burnin but up to this point we haven't seen any so it's gonna be really up to how Apple is trying to minimize that but over the course of time we know even in TV sets it happens so it's always important not to just keep it on the same thing order you don't you just want to leave a single image like if you're on a video game and you pause your console and you leave your screen on that in that same spot you're probably gonna get a little bit of it there's ways to reduce that but we'll see how it fares out for the iPhone 10 I mean the main advantage of OLED is the deepest darkest inky as' blacks which give you the best image quality possible and give you the widest contrast ratio largest contrast ratio that you can see on a screen and that's why it looks so good so we'll see we'll see how it plays out it's one of those things that you just kind of gotta wait but I'm all for the OLED movement we haven't we've had Samsung screens with Oh LEDs for years they have exhibited some burning over time but guess what the sad and sick thing about it is we typically get rid of these phones after two years or even one year now yeah you know what I'm saying yeah yeah yeah totally so we'll see how we'll see how that all plays out another story coming out to us from Bloomberg is that Apple is targeting to have a rear-facing 3d sensor for 2019 iPhone so we know we have the true depth sensor on the front Apple's looking to put its own 3d sensing camera or sensor on the back side for 2019 what makes this interesting is it's using different technology so we know that the chewed-up sensor that scans your face it basically shoots a light on your face it projects a pattern of 30,000 laser dots and then kind of measures the change and distortion that's how face ID really builds that image of your face but with this new rear sensor that they're hoping to look for they're gonna be using a different method it pretty much they call it a time-of-flight approach and what that means is if you have lasers that are shooting out and kind of like with a laser focusing system on the LG phones this time of flight calculates the time it takes for a laser to bounce off something so if it has a laser shooting in different directions it ultimately it'll be able to scan and build a rough 3d environment from your phone and it gives you that kind of sense of okay this is an entire room what we have found is with a our kit on the Apple iPhone 10 is that it can do some really great augmented reality things it does typically Excel when you're talking about putting things on a tabletop surface there's like a game called a I don't know if it's called my pet dragon but it's something like that I've goofed around with it you know it can do measurements really nicely we've seen examples where tabletops work well I can see a table but when it comes to vertical surfaces like walls and doors it's not it's not really there yet it's not nearly as accurate it can't see that and so that's why they would need something like this laser time a flight sensor on the backside and this is Apple's push 2 right now I would arguably say they're the leading consumer augmented reality device out there on the market they want to make an even bigger leap by putting a rear sensor on there as well so according to Bloomberg this is what they are looking for in targeting 2019 for this will not affect anything with the true that sensor on the front facing camera this is all new technology for the rear side nice so they've even there's even examples of like how there's things where you could place like a tiger on a stand on a floor in this article but when you have like a pole in the way it doesn't really see the pole it just really sees the floor so those are those type of you know augmented reality things that are in the way but augmented reality still has major potential we're gonna see it really come to fruition once developers get their hands on the iPhone 10 I would say maybe three or four months we're gonna start seeing some crazy stuff a year later we're gonna see even more crazier stuff more crazier it's time in a word we're gonna see crazier stuff so it's just get the tools get the hardware get the software into these amazing developers hands and let them go to town and we're gonna be able to reap the benefits of that so I feel like if there's the sensor on the front and the back it's gonna be able to do weird things like measure a room or you know there's so many other potential potential you know things that it could do that I'm just popping into my head right now like measure a room or you know just measure like an object or something and and then allow for like spatial augmented reality games or you know we're where there's a border or something in a room does that make sense yeah well what if you just sat in your living room and it mapped out the room and then all of a sudden you're in this like one first-person shooter where creatures are coming out on the walls but you're just sitting on the couch in your room right it just becomes like those gallery type shooters like that's the type of stuff that we know people are working on and it's just gonna keep on getting better and better better yeah really that sounds pretty exciting but I mean also you know it's scary that there's laser shooting out of my phone measuring my whereabouts you know freaking lasers lasers all right we know that the iPhone 10 and every phone that comes out is not without some of their obstacles and issues that that do affect it and the iPhone has its bumps and bruises no doubt it's still a great phone that guess what the pixel 2 XL has bumps and bruises I still think it's a great phone some people say it's not as great whatever that's you could you could you could figure that out between yourselves but the current iPhone 10 right remember when they launched face ID they kind of put out this beacon to say like hey face ideas really secure one in a million faces can crack it you can't work on photos it doesn't work on masks this is the most secure kind of security sensor for your phone well that was just like hey to the world try and break it so guess what people broke it and this is this is a cool little story from a Vietnamese developer called be CAV and they basically tricked the iPhone TENS face ID with a mask and what they did is they pretty much cobbled together a composite mask made up of 3d printed plastic silicone makeup and some simple paper cutouts which in combination tricked the iPhone into unlocking their phone now there the video clip in that article Beach they just show them like kind of talking about and how it works but this demonstration so far it's been shown off it has not been confirmed publicly by any like third-party source but there's some interesting stuff about this the actual developers they found it wasn't as hard as they thought it would be to actually hack face Aidid there the quote that be CAV wrote was the recognition mechanism is not as strict as you think we just need half a face to create the mask it was even simpler than we ourselves had thought so I'm watching this video it's funny he's got like the paper he put a piece of paper over his eye which is like just a picture of an eye you know yeah it's this is really weird man so they've shown it where they reset the face ID versus you know an accurate and then put it against a model they've been clearly they haven't talked about it as well they aren't kind of exposing all of exactly what is but maybe it's not capturing as much data as we think and this might lean towards what that color last week asked about about the kind of the face ID conspiracy theory like did it make it less secure you know we will never know but if you can actually trick it by only having certain features it's not look no one's gonna do this anytime soon it's not like you have to worry about someone making a copy of your face but clearly if you could do it on like someone model maybe if someone's a little more high-profile it's an issue but you know it's all mission impossible I worry about people making copy of my face and using it for evil so and you too Brian but then they'd have to copy your hair too and that Bobby remember face Aidid adapts with haircuts oh that's right that's right it does you know what one thing that people don't talk about like people aren't see this the thing why when we do our iPhone 10 reviews it should be more experience you know one time where face ID never works with me is when I have my toothbrush in my mouth oh really huh because it's like this firm like hanging out here and it it must cover or just not give a complete face profile and it immediately kills it sometimes when I have my sunglasses hanging off of my cheeks and it's like down here it won't detect either so there's there's always these different like examples of when and when it will work or when it won't huh that's funny like yeah I could see myself using my phone while brushing my picture myself doing that so I don't know first of all you don't have to worry about it man you got a phone with an actual home button 10 baby yeah and that's something we're cheering about for many people honestly you should be you should be cheering about that look at this beautiful iOS right here oh yeah I'm just kidding I'm just playing oh yeah there's no bugs 3d touch works alright uh if you didn't think that you're worried about someone making a mask out of your face check this out this is kind of the I don't know might be the fun video of the week an iPhone 10 was with face ID was unlocked by a 10 year old kid who was able to take his mom's phone that had her face ID profile put into it and then it was unlocked so the mom shows like hey my face ID is working here I'm gonna stare it and I'm gonna lock it she then later hands over the phone to her son and then he just stares at it and the phone completely unlocks and so it's kind of interesting because it raises the question Apple hasn't responded to anything about this but it's like okay how secure is this phone now we're seeing that it works with people of not only not twins or brothers and sisters we're talking about different ages different genders and it works that's funny because they do they do kind of look alike too very similar you did it right away man no problem and then he dabs you got it I mean when you're 10 years old you got a DAB why wouldn't you dab that's funny man it's totally not played out to dab I know my kids wouldn't be able to unlock my phone cuz they don't they don't look like me very much they look more like their mom but the I mean that's a problem because you don't want your kids being able to unlock your phone and like get in and do weird stuff and look at videos or you know so that is a problem I don't know buddy nobody wants that in another face IDs story this came out from the Nikkei Asian DK review we talked about face ID in the phone according to their reports this is again way down the road Apple may be working to include its face ID technology in the home pod by 2019 now that I thought this was interesting because remember way back I think sometime in May April or May of last year there were rumblings that Apple's actual home pod would have a video camera that would feature some kind of facial recognition there were actual ports about that back in may now obviously it didn't make it for this first generation home pod but clearly its they've been thinking about they probably more most likely have been testing it and oh you know why is that advantageous if a device knows who you are and you have different settings different accounts different music playlists preferences you know contacts it needs to know who you are so that it can serve that information now with Google it learns your voice which is awesome and can distinguish between different members of the family but at least Apple is trying to potentially taking this facial recognition approach to distinguish between different users nice it's cool but app but voice being able to detect a voice is way better it's faster you don't have to look at anything yeah definitely I think it's way better and just detective voice you also have to be in the line of sight of the camera and this and that so like walk up to it I don't wanna walk up to it I wanna walk and look at it just like nobody got no time for that all right should we take a little breather and give some love to our sponsor this week let's do it man I'll get some music going here let's set the mode this episode ladies and gentlemen

saying definitely take advantage of that that is awesome all right shall we keep on rolling let's keep it going or iPhone 10 issues I'm sorry to break your hearts y'all but it happens the iPhone 10 what do you what do you think about cold weather is it gonna be able to hang in the cold this this is don't bum me out right now cuz I take my iphone snowboarding I make video take pictures this is all bum me out right now at the moment some users have complained that the handset screen becomes unresponsive in cooler outside temperatures Apple said Thursday which would be I think it was last week Thursday that it's working on a software fix for complaints because the phone does indeed become unresponsive in some cold weather yeah so I'm wondering you know people have complained about this I've got imagine if you're in a really cool cold if you're living in a cold city like during this Christmas break they have not fixed the issue yet I mean you spend a thousand bucks on your phone and it's not working on the cold NIC's that's that's like three months of the year you're not gonna be able to use your phone properly unless you're indoors or something that's better up they better update that they better update that that's all I'm saying like get on that now the also the other issue affecting some phones it doesn't seem to be too widespread but it is enough where look this is a visual thing you maybe you guys and gals have seen the Greenline I don't want to call it the green line of death but it's the green line it comes down on the side of some of these phones and one of the beliefs is that basically TechCrunch reported that the iPhone 10 display uses this new what they call a diamond sub pixel pattern and so it could be the fact that there's an electrical fault causing voltage to flow to all of the green subpixels creating a line like that and you know laughing man I'm just laughing at this beach or so sensitive line you can't use the letter I can't use it in the cold your kids can unlock it what else man what else I'm sorry you don't need to be sorry right oh man track him eat you're hella cracking me up right now oh that's too funny too funny anyways check it out this is an issue that can't really be resolved by yourself you got to go take it in to Apple care whether it's mail it in or go to a store nearby or a service provider but you're not gonna be able to fix this one um but there's one thing you can fix the not the damn notch I love this I'm looking at this right now this is wonderful check it out it's called it's a free app available on the App Store from Apple it's called a notch remover and what I like about it is it allows you to basically through this app for free take a photo that you have and then put it you basically have to have it in your photo album on your phone and you can select a photo it'll frame it for you and then it removes that notch on the top again this is only gonna work for like your homescreen and your lock screen but the notch no more with the knot remover app there's also another cool website if you want to play with it yourself um it's called NOx lists space that I was sent they have some really cool wallpapers already in there that you can download but then they also offer up their tool basically their template in Photoshop so that you can build and create your own wallpapers if you don't want to use the app so just kind of some different ways for all you it's a really like I said on my review it's a really divisive thing some people love it some people don't I'm in the camp that I feel like it's unnecessary so I kind of make it disappear but hold on I did I did embrace it though I had I had to get on board with this own I had get on board wonderful I mean it just makes me laugh and reminds me how like silly it is it's like that's it hey yeah people in the chatroom are seeing an update came out today for the I think it's the Green Line really yeah someone's saying in OP chat room that came out today and uh and they know what it is since we'll do this real time just chat us with what version of iOS is it like eleven point one point two or something cuz they just released eleven point one point one to take care of the letter is U which was funny because it was the letter I and was like iiiii point one point two people are saying okay that's good and then someone else also said that there's another app called nacho which is gets rid of the notch in but it costs a dollar well I didn't recommend nacho because not only does it cost a dollar if you want to get rid of the nacho watermark they ask you to pay two more bucks that's baloney oh and this this update also covers the Green Line and the cold non-responsiveness well this is why we do this real time man thank you guys cute the community is part of the show I'm telling you like we don't know everything at every moment so we got to do it like that love it thank you bye Apple byte nation you guys rock all right um this is a cool thing in the latest beta for iOS 11.2 has revealed that the beta adds support for faster 7.5 watt charging wireless charging on the iPhone 10 and 8 so when that first came out the phones support up to five watts there are actual charging pads like belkin's that go up to 15 Apple said they would release an update later to give you faster wireless charging so at least in this 11.2 update it does support 7.5 watts here's the other thing though 9 to 5 Mac actually ran their own test to see ok how much faster is it is it because technically and they're saying oh we're gonna give you 70 50 percent more juice early testing shows it's a little faster but it's not that fast if you can again you do have to have charging mats according to Apple that are partners with them at that support this that are kind of support their cheese standard and basically apples flavor although see how true that really is sometimes they just like to say that just like you shouldn't buy a third-party charging cable but the Belkin and Mophie wireless charging pads are the two that are compatible with this right now again this is in the eleven point two beta but according to nine-to-five Mac after an hour the seven point five watt charger was only slightly ahead at the end of a two hour period the iPhone 8 Plus that they had on iOS 11 not 11.2 reached a forty percent battery life while a same phone running eleven point two using the new seven point five speeds based on software hit forty seven percent so it's a little faster it's not like you're getting 50 percent faster you're just getting a little faster so faster is better yeah no matter what it's better or just directly plug that thing in a USB C charger that you have to pay for because Apple makes you want to buy it and it cost you like 70 more bucks what yeah you know you don't get you don't get the fast USB C charging when you buy your phone you got to pay for that premium don't you love it premium stuff right premium um if you're wondering everyone is trying to come up with a I phone killer if you're wondering what the iPhone killer is it's actually an iPhone okay so what lets you know everyone is trying to take down Apple and the funny thing about the iPhone killer's actually an iPhone so this is what we're talking about the iPhone 10 has been obviously very successful so successful that it's coming at the expense of the iPhone 8 there were reports about that but according to the latest analysts notes Apple is expected to cut iPhone 8 production by 50 to 60 percent from December to March because the demand is just hardly there since all this demand has shifted over to the iPhone 10 Wow that's crazy so the iPhone 10 it's kind of killing the iPhone 8 so we have our first iPhone killer the iPhone 10 so they're able to measure that pretty quickly just yeah just been like a couple months and they're like whoa we need to slow down on the eights you got to slow your roll so based on inventory levels they can they can adjust that pretty quickly so that is what's going on with that I'm gonna jump ahead to just some iPad news we talked about how the iPad is expected to get faced ID and it's also expected to get kind of that slim almost bezel list design right there's concept pieces out there from Benjamin guessed skin that just show off like there's gonna be guess what if you don't want a bezel on your other devices this is going to be bezel this as well so the iPad pro 2018 model will get that all new design but also it's expected to have a fast octa-core an 8 core a 11 X Bionic chip so there would be like the next evolution of the chip that's inside the iPhone which is already insanely and ridiculously fast and hasn't even been utilized to its full potential so the I the iPad pro 2018 will get all kind of basically get all the goodies that the iPhone 10 has but on an iPad pro design which is pretty cool and then it's gonna make me want to buy one nice special especial especially yeah well the bezel is bezel this guy dude again this iPad dude again for me bezel is better this way bezel especially bezel as presently specialist unless better left to the left bezel s bezel especially present less better less pitiless better okay drop in the beatbox all right so we have that iPad and then kind of the story before we get to our calls that closes things up the stories like it's funny to me Microsoft CEO was walking into in India spotted two journalists with iPads and he wasn't all that impressed now he did say this lightheartedly for the record but he told them cheerfully according to the report you need to get a real computer my friend that's like the punchline Microsoft CEO walks into a bar sees a couple iPad users tells them you need to get a real computer my friend I need a laugh track for that it's you he was trying to be funny it's it's just another CEO doing little digs doing little digs but I will admit the surface pro is not as easy to use but it's a full-fledged computer compared to the iPad pro I love my iPad pro but that surface pro can do everything you want to try that joke one more time which one oh you want me to say okay so like Sachin adela walks into like a press room and he sees two reporters with the iPads and what does he say to them he says you need to get a real computer my friend okay that wasn't the one I was looking for oh yeah that's not the one either anyway I messed that up my bad I was like what why is the devil laughing all of a sudden oh wait this is what I was looking for okay that's better out of applause round of applause all right should we get to the the phone calls yeah thank you guys all for calling we got a lot of good calls this week and we got some bad calls this week but we're gonna be yeah we're gonna play them all we're gonna play them all okay here I'm gonna tease it again yeah before you play it I'm just gonna tease it 1-866 two six three eight that's how you call that's how you're part of the show oh yeah okay here comes number one okay hey beat song it's Tyler from Charlotte so my question is whether or what you think about Samsung and Apple as far as have they reached the ceiling with innovation and technology in the cell phones you know before I could see where they were going but you know now I still think they have a lot more room for improvement now it's a wonder what your thoughts were all right thank you for a great day I think there is always room for improvement I think that there will always be something new that we didn't even think about five years from now that is just gonna hit just because look as an actual functional device for what we do every day you know you can say that these products have plateaued I don't if you're looking for something game-changing from a phone I don't know if we're gonna see it anytime soon is is a are going to be that next game-changing thing I think it's going to change how we do things and maybe look at information through our phones see things as in a heads-up displays and to me I've said it for a while I think the next big thing is gonna be whatever these whoever cracks the code for the augmented reality glasses that will see years down the road but from a phone standpoint is innovations not dead I look these can get a lot slimmer they can get more responsive they can get bigger they can get foldable 3d touch is still severely underutilized which I've said for years so I think and 3d touch was something that came out of nowhere no one expected 3d touch to happen so unfortunately Apple hasn't utilized it as well as I wish they did so I think there's always gonna be innovations and things that happen is it gonna transform our lives like the first iPhone did no because these are is iterations on the device but there will be another device that does that I would say the most transformative device that we've had so far in the past three years has been the whole home smart speaker personal assistant and there will be something else after that so there's always innovation my friend that's why we love this yeah like we are kind of stuck in this form factor of but just the rectangular foam but that could change you know and what the phones do obviously so so cool all right let's go to the next call here we go anyone has seen the letter I in there emoji keyboard so I'm seeing it when looking my frequently used which is kind of weird but uh yeah I just wanted to know if anyone else in it thank I think he needs to get iOS eleven point one point one there is that isn't there's that there's that like an old-school looking eye that appears on there as well Oh is there sometimes I've seen it but I wouldn't freak out I mean just update the phone mang doesn't want either it's like it got moved to from the emoji for you know from the regular keyboard to the emoji keyboard yeah yes funny okay next call what's up Steven Brian Garrett from Phoenix Arizona I just got my hands on the iPhone 10 and I absolutely love it I think it's a remarkable phone with this OLED and HDR display my only gripe that I have though is the small indicators over the top of the phone I cannot stand that there's no battery percentage or that let me know that I bluetooth on I have to I have to go down to notifications to get that kind of information I can't stand it you think there'll be an update that just lets you customize what kind of indicators you have up at the top of the phone thank you guys love your show have a great day fine wait did you say Apple and customized let me get that last back that's the devil laughs you know what that this is one of my biggest complaints why I feel like look you have the notch make it a solid bar I put in my review put the utilities right below the bar and then give us the ability to see all of them that's what I've been is they could have easily fitted in there they didn't do it and they haven't even I even wish they could just change the icon of the battery so that it's a little bigger and then you could just see in numbers inside of it just do something to show us that give us that option when you actually charge your phone in on iOS 11 on the iPhone 10 for those first few moments the actual battery icon kind of grows for a second and then it shrinks back down so why not keep it a little larger put a little give us the option to see a percentage in there that's not that's not that hard [Laughter] so bad at you so bad at oh man yeah so at Apple okay let's do the got two more calls here we go this one's real quick I think Beach Tom quick question for you I'm interested in maybe getting an Apple watch but I don't like big watch bases and prefer the smaller size is it like okay for guys to wear the smaller one or is that really just intended for a lady I mean oh okay this is one of the best calls ever because our friend calling in is been keeping it real like that's like an honest it's just so hilarious like yep I would honestly say I've seen I put I don't have the biggest wrists and that doesn't correlate to any other parts of my body let me let you all know that but I don't have the biggest wrist and I don't know why I'm like why do I even have to bring that up I don't know why cuz I know the comments I already know what people are gonna say I think it's it's not even as a dude I actually prefer the larger watch yeah I just think it look though and you know guess what the easiest way to do it is try them on the store if you like the smaller watch then dude do it cuz ain't no shame in my game I wear a lot of things that people question like yeah I would actually prefer the smaller one cuz I don't know I might watch right now is a little too big you know just feels kind of clunky on my hand so I I'd prefer the smaller one so you just move faster and just feel like a little more compact I don't know I would say I mean I don't think I've said this in this show specifically but the Apple watch series 3 is an amazing device now with watch OS 4 and the speed of it and the LTE version I can do so many things with it that make it actually a device that again Apple's kind of started to figure this out that stands on its own oh I'm really enjoying my iPhone series 3 LTE I was not the biggest fan of the Apple watch but once it gets to the point where I'm like yes it's legit now like absolutely I'm gonna be like cheering about it and the Apple watch series 3lt is worth like being like this is it like if if you held out the past two years this is the one I get for sure for sure yeah you've been kind of selling it to me on the last few show so I'm gonna add that to my Santa Christmas list it's only like a three nine 399 for the LTE version I mean you do have to pay two more bucks but dude I'm working out and streaming like content like come on that's on my wrist and then text messaging and taking calls oh my god it's like it's crazy it honestly is pretty badass and I don't take a look it's a firt it's like again you need to be that person that wants to use it at the gym like that or workout but if you do it's awesome it's awesome cool first world first world problems first world we got one more call yeah we got one more call he has a little gripe okay and then he's also has a plug for himself so we might stop it before the plug all right we're gonna stop it hey um Brian and Tom I called last week because it was my birthday and I said that one of my gifts was in Apple watch TV without failures can I ask you if you thought that over time we'll watch get out dating and stuff for an update yeah a little disappointed they did play my call but hopefully we can play this week and please follow me on Instagram yeah you know what he called us did you hear what he called this beach Brian and Tom yeah Brian and Tommy clearly is a fan hey Brian hey dawg nice to meet you nice to meet you sorry sorry we didn't play your birthday call and your Instagram URL I think we're good without it I think we're okay but he did he got that he got the watch and he wants to know if he'll be updated eventually to include LTE I believe is that I think that was his question uh watch I'm not I'm getting confused by what he was asking you mean I play it one more time just the beginning oh my god I called last week because it was my birthday and I said that one of my gifts was in Apple watch TV without failures can I ask that over time we'll watch get out dating reporting update yeah yeah I think he wants to know it was without cellular and then I think he wants to know federal oh to be able to do that with the speed of this watch this watch is gonna at least last you two years and it sounds like two years but yeah you know most Apple devices the way that they run the hardware and the software together and they they say they optimize it once your device is like after that one year and a half two year window it performs significantly less with the latest software so you know if you get to the two-year point I really do recommend most people stick with the OS that is on that phone instead of going for the next one it it just i've we've seen it enough times where just like for example someone on an iPhone 6 and 6s I oh s 10 works better on it than iOS 11 it's just the fact so that's my that's that's my advice to you stay thirsty my friends all right well that's it man all right all right we are done so remember again everybody be a part of the show we want to hear from you I you know I think more of you have started to get your iPhone tenzin I want to hear what you think of it just what you like and what you don't and yeah maybe just one thing you like and one thing you don't because we want to get through all y'all call us
