this episode of TechnoBuffalo brought to you by Linda calm what's up everybody walk back to episode of ask the Buffalo I'm your host Jon Rangers to show where you could ask any question that you might have from the consumer electronics world and sometimes outside of it up this week we're talk about 2k screens and personal questions to talk a little bit about Apple pay and will spread in a bit of news about our new office in the new studio guys are seeing disaster buffle it's going to get started first question comes from Twitter at alexs suits ass at john for lakers is a clue 2k display really matter on the screen under 6 inches hashtag at the beat that is a very good question so you've seen 2k or qhd screens in the market right now he's from the widespread use in the LG g3 then 04 is having a qhd screen it's or more and more phones coming out its gonna have that as a standard the screens look great but for what I've seen so far they look just like really good 1080p displays you put a great 1080p display right next to a qHD display just doing regular stuff you won't notice that big a difference we did it's a big difference though it's reviewing really large images or images to have a lot of pixels and you can view the whole image on your screen if you do a lot of that then it makes a huge difference no matter what screen size you're on if you don't do much of that I haven't seen a really compelling reason yet for a qhd screen today's feature to have but I wouldn't go and buy a phone just because of that is the only feature next one comes from Twitter as well at Time Warp 2303 ass at John for lakers who is your most influential entrepreneur so there's a lot of incredible entrepreneurs in the world I've tried to sort of emulate and learn and read a lot about a few i think steve job is certainly one of them Elon Musk is definitely another alow he didn't start Tesla Motors and certainly Richard Branson from version is an incredible story those are three people that I really admire obviously there are a lot more folks out there but those three I've really tried to learn about try and follow the business practices at least learn the good in the bad and work and didn't work so those are definitely send out in my mind next one comes from at two rembert underscore Beltran who asked at john for lakers what do you like to do for fun besides review tech we've asked me this question about a year ago I could give you a long list of answers would it include going to movies going for hikes just hanging out traveling going to be surfing now got a one-year-old at home I don't get a chance to get out that much unfortunately although i will say now hanging out at home has become one of my new favorite hobbies just turning off my phone and hang out my family something I really enjoy whether it's just taking the baby and my wife for a walk and just go into the neighborhood are going out to mall and just walk around with them those are my new hobbies that's what I enjoy he's definitely have changed since the little guy came around but most definitely for the better let me do everyone's favorite thing and interrupt the questions for one

Leo the Lion 96 to a SAT John for lakers do you think that Apple pay revolutionized the mobile payments and moving forward about its security and ease of use so flash back a few years ago in Google Wallet hit I was pretty sure Google Wallet was going to change the way we pay I think the world is waiting for a more secure nfc-based system I know Europe has the pin and chip credit card system that's worked very well for them and certainly we're getting that here in the US about time but they need to be a more secure way to use mobile devices to pay I thought Google Wallet was going to be that we didn't see Google Wallet really get that sort of market penetration that we expected Apple pay could be a little bit on the different side a lot of people were wondering why Apple waited this long to push out google pay I think the answers are kind of interesting a first course Toronto Reuters technology was ready but no reason the technology couldn't been ready a few years ago the United States is now going to have to start using that same pen on chip technology that's being used in Europe other parts of the world so merchants are the next figure you can start treating out their equipment and it would make sense they would start to get their equipment didn't start supporting apple pay as well as long as you're buying you stuff might as well support everything as opposed to when Google Wallet came out they can have to change equipment if they supported tap to pay them yeah Google what would work but some of the terminals didn't work at all so I do think Apple pay is going to take off I really like that serve delivered to secure credit card number so the person swiping your card never sees a card number the merchant never sees your part number that's we can be nice and realize just on your thumb so yeah I think we're going to see sort of Apple pay and other payment systems like it really really now start to get to mass adoption last question comes from at
