hey what is up guys I'm kbfd here and I am back from Spring Break a lot of guys noticed I took about a week break from tech except for Twitter basically and it was a nice break to have but I was basically itching to get back to the whole video making thing the entire time I was there so I'm back and this is a Q&A video now fun fact I used to be completely against Q&A videos at all I feel like you know someone has a question I'll just answer it if someone has a comment I'll just answer the comment but inevitably there's a few like hot questions that just come in over and over and over and over again and no matter how many times I answer the comment it'll pop up again because someone else wants to know and they didn't see it so that's what these Q&A videos are going to be for they're going to be answering the persistent questions that are pretty much trending I guess that are people asking me on Twitter or on Facebook or on Google+ or in the comments section of a bunch of videos in a row so let's go ahead and get to those so the first thing is the new Samsung Galaxy s5 versus the all-new HTC One which one is better and it's kind of hard to answer that now because obviously one of those phones has been announced and the other one has just been leaked like crazy hasn't actually been announced yet so what I'll say here is I'm going to wait until they're both announced to fully judge both phones side by side but I do plan on getting a lot of hands-on time and hopefully a video of the all-new HTC One when it comes out just like I did with the Samsung Galaxy s5 that's so many people watched so I'll be getting those first impressions of that and then of course we'll get them both full in-house we'll do some comparisons and the typical in-depth video reviews that you guys are used to so for now I'm going to say the HTC One looks very promising I'm obviously a fan of the old HTC One and a lot of you guys have strong opinions already about the galaxy s5 so I'll say coming soon for that sort of opinion number 2 is a actually question when am I going to change my name from mkbhd to mkb UHD for ultra high-definition or 4k and my answer to that is it won't be actually when I chose MKB gee I didn't exactly think of this when I when I first made the name but HD I like to think of as an umbrella for all of the different high definition video formats including qHD fhd and inevitably UHD so HD encompasses all of the high definition video stuff so it'll be mkbhd for as long as that's true the third is what is my daily driver this is a question I get probably consistently throughout the year so this is an interesting time because it's kind of a lull after the holiday season smartphone frenzy so right now my daily driver is more often than not the Nexus 5 the mkbhd Edition so this is the 32 gig white nexus 5 with that D brand skin I talked to you guys about in the update 10.1 video and I use this probably 75% of the time I also use a lot of what I created I guess a Google Play edition HTC one it's actually a black HTC One with CyanogenMod installed on it and I also tend to break out the galaxy note 3 when I have a heavy road trip or I need a lot of battery life for the day and I also almost always have an iPhone 5s on me to take pictures with so those are sort of the round in the house daily drivers of mkbhd at least right now that answer changes like every month the fourth one is dem notebooks doh so I've shown these they've been like in the background of a bunch of my videos recently but I've never actually talked about them because they're not really tech related but these notebooks have gotten a lot of questions there's actually two of them I always keep one on my desk and the other one I take to me to class and they have gridded paper on the inside and some pretty solid build and a lot of people want to know where they come from so I went back into my gmail and found the receipt and this is a fabric bound planner from dwelle site that's focused mostly on design stuff and so there's an orange version and actually also a black version available which I did just order because I didn't realize there was one so there's that and I'm going to leave a link for it below that like button for you guys to check it out I will also leave an Amazon equivalent for that for one these inevitably sell out because a lot of you guys have been asking where by it I'm assuming you want to buy it so that link is below the like button so you can check that out another thing that's asked behind me is obviously the desktop wallpapers I use and like where do you get your desktop wallpapers and lately I've been rocking this particular one this one's called ghosts - it's a facet designed by Justin malar and he has a ton of artwork similar to that that I've shown on Twitter and Instagram a lot of you guys like his work so I'll have the link to that particular facet and high-resolution if you want to use it as your phone wallpaper or your desktop wallpaper or whatever he has a ton of similar work that I'll also link to and it's all pretty awesome stuff and last but not least is when is the freaking setup tour project going to be uploaded to YouTube where is it alright this is why I usually don't give etas for videos estimated time for arrival for those of you don't know a typical mkbhd review where I control every single part of it can take days and maybe even a week to create and finally upload to YouTube so compiling thousands of clips and first of all reviewing all those thousands of clips and sorting them and organizing them and reviewing them and then editing them and making them a concise sort of a viewable format has taken a long time so for now I will say the status of it is editing it wasn't editing that recently actually it took a long time to watch all 1,200 of those videos submitted but it's editing boom there's your preview um and I guess I'll say stay tuned on Twitter for more updates of one exactly that will be dropping that's going to be a gigantic video so I hope you guys are excited for that so yeah that's going to do it for this Q&A video again these are just the quick videos of the trending questions if you have another burning question feel free to leave that in the comments section below you'll see me hanging out and answering comments there but that's going to do it I'm going to go back to thinking about all the other smart phones that were waiting for and the next like two weeks the Oppo find 7 the new HTC one all the phones I talked about in my last video so I'll talk to you guys in the next video thanks for watching later bass member
