happy Tuesday everybody welcome back to the lowdown I am Robert Rosenfeld and this is our newest show here at TechnoBuffalo breaking down the top three stories of the Czech world and giving you the info that you really need to know and speaking of new things Before we jump into our stories today we're launching a new website it is called the nerdy and it is your source for all things movies pop culture and basically anything nerdy it is live right now at the nerdy comm go pause the video check out the website are you guys back all right let's talk tech news here's the lowdown remember the rumors of those lower-cost Microsoft Surface devices we talked about last week well they're officially here and that device is called the surface go the newer lower-cost surface starts at 399 and the specs may sound a bit familiar it's got a 10-inch rounded display four gigs of RAM 64 gigs of storage a USB C port and it runs off of Intel's Pentium Gold processor there's a bunch of accessories for this new surface there's a type cover a surface pen and of course the surface Mobile Mouse but all these things are gonna cost you a bit extra there's also a higher-end version available with more RAM and memory but the baseline unit is garnering the most attention right now mainly because it's so closely priced to apples entry-level iPad and Microsoft is definitely targeting education customers and even average consumers with the surface go at this price point and if you've been drooling over that promo video that you just saw you'll be able to know you can pre-order the surface go today and it will start shipping in August the s 9 plus is one of the best cameras you can get on a smartphone right now and a new memory suggesting that feed dual camera system on that phone may be making its way from the back to the front for the company's next flagship we're hearing reports that the Samsung S 10 will have two front-facing cameras but the rumors aren't clear on the details or specs of those sensors one of these lenses could be used as an ultra wide angle lens perfect for those group selfies or the additional sensor may simply exist to aid in facial recognition for Samsung's true depth sensor competitor besides the dual camera setup on the front we're also hearing reports that at least one S 10 probably the S 10 plus would have a triple camera setup on the back and this would certainly be really cool to see and it'd be interesting to see how Samsung would use all these extra sensors and I don't want to crush your hopes and dreams but unfortunately we're still pretty much a long ways away from a nest announcement happening so don't get your hopes up just yet and today marks 10 years since the iOS App Store officially opened its virtual doors and ushered in the era of the apps that we know today and man hasn't really been that long just for some fun history the after launch on iPhone OS 2.0 alongside the brand spanking new iPhone 3G in July of 2008 and the AppStore officially launched with titles like Super Monkey Ball Crash Bandicoot nitro Kart 3d and a bunch of other seemingly random apps that were a really big deal for their time and were much more powerful than their limited web app counterparts in the past decade the App Store has garnered more than 2 million apps 20 million registered developers and those developers have earned over a hundred billion dollars through their apps on the last episode the lowdown and we open the floor to you guys for your thoughts and opinions on stories and Ellie responded to our story on the iPhone and Apple adding more colors to their devices I think it's an amazing idea to have colors I mean I personally love the gold I've had that for my last four iphones already and so I think the more colors the better because at least it offers some kind of customization yeah you can do a case but I think like the actual color of the iPhone is also a good way to customize it do you guys have an opinion on a story mentioned today an opinion on that new surface go tablet or you want to tell us about the first app you ever downloaded leave a comment down below or better yet send us a video message on Twitter or Instagram for your chance to be featured on the next episode of Valona that's all I got for today thank you guys so much for watching check out the nerdy comm and I'll be back here on Thursday talking more tech news thanks for watching
