Galaxy Note... Fan Edition? Ask MKBHD V18!

2017-07-18
hey what is up guys i'm kim Bhd here and welcome to the unboxing of the Samsung Galaxy Note SB fan edition I don't know that's what they were going to call it the fan Edition but uh this is a revival basically a refurbished Galaxy Note 7 but with no 7 anywhere on the packaging it can also see a little heart on the front there for sands I guess it's going to open up and see what's different as far as we know specs have not changed so there you go right up at the top is the note 7 an addition the stylus of course still there get your earbuds here that's a good sign and your power adapter and USB type-c cable that's all the same as it was with the note 7 actually the phone itself once that you get the stickers and everything off are exactly the same as the note 7 same specs same software just with this slightly smaller battery you can see it says note Sanditon right there that's the biggest physical change that's uh that's pretty much it uh maybe we can take some questions all right can we get a Logitech MX master 2s review ok so I actually have the lab sex MX master 2's this gray here is the 2s this dark navy gold is the MX master it is actually also not that much of a difference here you can see up at the front on the button itself it says logy instead of the entire logitech name that's actually do they get physical different there's no USB type-c or any different connector or anything same capabilities just a better battery life and higher dpi and a new color so that's that's also it for that I think we'll just we'll just take a lot more questions how did you learn to use Final Cut Pro did you just practice with the software or did someone teach you ok so funny story about the time that I first started using Final Cut Pro when I was first starting to learn video editing it was with Camtasia Studio and I used that because a lot of my videos at that time were screencasts and that was actually a software used for recording your screen and then editing that screencast so have a bunch of features for like your highlighting your mouse and following the cursor around the screen stuff like that I switched from that to Adobe Premiere and I learned a lot in the Adobe world in the premiere and After Effects and Photoshop world all because of that switch but then I switched from a PC to a Mac and then we got to the Kobe interview so we did this interview and I say we because there's a collaboration actually between me doing the actual interview with Kobe and a behind-the-scenes video and a lot of help setting that up for my buddies Austin and John those two guys are both Mac users who use Final Cut Pro and swore by it and will constantly try to get me to switch to Final Cut Pro it was pretty stubborn I was like no I'm I'm doing pretty well with Adobe Premiere thank you very much but we're editing our videos right I'm editing the interview I'm cutting between the multiple cameras in Premiere they're editing the behind-the-scenes in Final Cut Pro on their Mac's I hit export they hit export I'm still exporting and John's video his behind the scenes finishes exporting and then he watches it back and then catches a mistake in something he wants to fix he goes back into the editing fixes that mistake and then re-exports the entire thing again and uploads it and I'm still at like 30 percent done exporting from Premiere it was at that moment that I knew I had to give Final Cut Pro a shot and that's why switch honestly Final Cut Pro is that much faster on Macs because of a bunch of things besides just optimization and Quick Sync it's kind of a no-brainer for me at this point I could always go back to Windows and back to premiere if I wanted to but I've learned all my keyboard shortcuts and I am self-taught at a lot of what I do in these editing apps so it's not really a huge deal since you don't use a phone case how many phones have you actually broken slash damage like crack the screen etc okay I've only actually in my lifetime of reviewing phones crack the screen on one but I have dropped two and damaged them the most recent one actually damaged was this one plus five I dropped my one plus five getting out of the car practice like two days before shoot my review put a skin over it it was fine but the last phone actually broke the screen of was the second gen Moto X when I was like a sophomore in college dropped it like literally facedown on the sidewalk actually broke but honestly for the amount of time I've been using phones in my lifetime that's a pretty decent record of like two in seven years I think okay this one's on all caps why do you always have bluetooth and location services on all the time I don't think it's basically just for the convenience I have no problem with battery life as it is you can turn them off to save battery life but I like walking up to my car and sitting down on the driver's seat and the music is already playing from my phone just cuz bluetooth paired that fast every time I want to connect to bluetooth headphones it's just one button and they're connected and we go same thing with speakers if I want to go into maps I don't have to turn on location services wait for it to connect get GPS and then go I kind of just go what's your typing speed if you happen to live in the world of Game of Thrones whom would you kill first honestly I've never seen an episode of Game of Thrones in my life so I'm probably missing out I'm not the best person answer this question I mostly watch a lot more YouTube videos than TV shows when shooting videos do you draw any inspiration from filmmakers or photographers which one's influenced your aesthetic a really interesting question actually I'd like to say I'm building my own style and a lot of of course inspiration comes from various places mostly actually also in the YouTube world and the online world I don't watch that many movies but you could say a little bit of it comes from other tech youtubers other Skitch sketch sketch makers but I do want to link to a video that I think is amazing coming from a quote from Ira Glass it's an animation built around something he's said often which is you kind of have your own tastes and people don't tell us to beginners very much but you don't really have the most confidence in your early work because you have this really nice pace then you don't think your early work lives up to that taste but you just have to keep working at what you do over and over again and longer and longer so you can build up to that taste and actually satisfy your own crazy what you want to be so I'm link that below I think it's really good and if you're into creative stuff at all or if you want to be a youtuber and make stuff you should watch it can you do a review on the Hasselblad okay so those of you who have been following me for the past a little bit on like Twitter or Instagram know that I recently got or have been using the Hasselblad x1d it's insane in a lot of ways and I understand why you'd want a review of it but I'd almost feel bad reviewing it because the use that I have for this camera is definitely not the use of the people who would be watching a review of this camera you know what I mean today really compact but still really really premium handheld medium format sensor it's a 50 megapixel sensor in this camera it does incredible things its sharp edge to edge with the glass that comes with it and I will not be using it to shoot ads or billboards or portraits I'm using it to shoot like photos of smartphones and tablets and handheld devices for Twitter and Instagram and I'll probably do some other stuff like just random photos of things I see for wallpaper type materials I started a Flickr account again if you want the high-resolution 50 megapixel versions of these images but I almost feel bad reviewing it in a way that's kind of like not something anyone can take advantage of maybe I'll do a highlight of it maybe it'll be in dope tech maybe I'll just show you guys what I'm doing with it and why it's so awesome because I really do think it's awesome but yeah I probably won't review the Hasselblad so I'm gonna stop right there as far as questions that I answer but I'm actually going to turn this around I've done these q and A's for a while now and I want to end it by turning around a question for you guys and I'm going to bring it from something I tweeted recently what would you think since everyone's making smartphones now what would you think if Tesla made a smart phone what if what would it be into what would you like about it what would you expect to see from a Tesla smartphone I mean Red's making a smart phone now why not right I know what you think thanks for watching talk to you guys the next one peace
