Note 3 which is their latest and greatest tell us what you guys have done to improve this over the well legendary at this point galaxy note 2 sure I think what people will find it slightly narrower slightly longer has a larger screen size we've been more efficient in terms of the use of the bezel all the hardware's updated processor 3 gigabytes of onra onboard memory 32 gigabytes of storage that's standard and it's also though in many ways familiar for samsung folks a you know a product that we've put a lot of thought into the into the design otherwise you're still able to get inside of the device even though it has this nice sort of luxurious feeling kind of leather background with leather feeling background but in fact it's still the same flexible light casing that we've always had NFC supported through the battery 3200 milliamp battery able to add external storage 13 megapixel camera and for those that have been following along this is a device that borrows a lot from the galaxy s4 in terms of its functionality but it's also able to take high-end video more so than any other device from Samsung now you've covered spec a little bit here so it does 4k video and also 1080p video up to 60fps which is pretty awesome but tell us what else what do you mean by latest and greatest hardware inside sure so I think that well I think actually the other functionality that I wanted to cover is more related to the stylus itself where we're kind of bringing forward the use of the pen because what is signature about the note more than any of the device in the family is the fact that we have this option for folks who want to use a pen as part of the natural functionality if it'll just come out of here just like I rehearsed it right so the first thing you'll notice is that there's an Air Command feature so this is using that hovering technology that we first saw on the gal on the note too actually and then also extended on the galaxy s4 see that in fact I'm able to call up certain commands just by hovering the screen and then i use the the button that's on the pen itself to fire up some of those commands things as simple as being able to take an action memo so I'm able to take a quick note or I can create a new window inside of the inside of the device and also it's able to sort of navigate now without having to put the pen down and that's the biggest advantage of the no.3 show us that window that window feature sure so for example if I if I invoke this pen window functionality you see that I just click that quickly then I draw a square and then I'm able to run certain utilities or programs inside of that window so what's I wanted to do so this is sort of replicating you know I'm taking notes or I'm doing something else on the phone geez I need to make a quick calculation how can I sort of call that up or I want to see a quick video or do some other functionality and being able to take advantage of this sort of advanced hardware with it without having to disturb what I was doing otherwise so obviously one of the big stories with the note 3 given that it's launching at the same time is integration with the galaxy gear smartwatch so tell me how these two are a match made in heaven in your eyes sure well I think that there are as powerful as smartphones are and there are still some transactions that you might have that are more immediately served by something that's more intimate to you so for example being able to take a quick picture or get a notification that I'm responding to rather than seeing that on the device I can have that in a place that's actually closer to me there's a piece of software that actually is tightly coupled to the use of the of the device itself which is called the gear manager which is how you would actually use the two devices together so what would you expect to do using the gear versus actually pulling your massive phone out of your pocket sure well you know a couple of examples might be taking a quick picture because it still takes some time to you know be able to take the camera out and set it up and so on and if you wanted a high-end picture that's great if you wanted a quick snapshot to take a video memo almost that it might be better served with something that's more closely a hand or get notifications that are are sent to me while the devices let's say or in my pocket or something like that without actually having to respond or even take a call which I could do without actually having to ironically take out the smart phone and use it I could actually just take that call right from the actually the galaxy gear so convergence is dead then and it's where we're now we're now taking the phone functionality out of the phone and putting all the other functionality into the phone well I think we've recognized that mobile communications is now the hub of what this is doing and that's a much more powerful idea than just emailing and phoning there's a number of things that people are going to do in terms of running applications so then the question is is that you know how can we improve the convenience of how a mobile communication device works and we think that having something close at hand and on your wrist is going to be part of that answer awesome thanks very much Ken and without further ado I'd like for the viewers to direct their attention to some nice glamour footage of the galaxy note 3 which if you're into big phones is very likely to be your next badly you
