2018-03-15
we hear that Google is making its much acclaimed portrait mode from the pixel now open-source technology it seems that Huawei went early with at least one of its p20 offerings and Nokia spent Alan's camera phone might bring an in display fingerprint center as well I'm Jaime Rivera and before we begin I'd love to give a shout out to Squarespace for sponsoring this video whether you're looking for a domain website or online store Squarespace is one of my favorite options it brings beautiful designer templates and it's really an all-in-one platform that's also highly acclaimed for its 24/7 customer service head on over to squarespace.com slash pocket now and get 10% off to get started this is pocket out daily the official news today are extremely unexpected I mean we are just a couple of days away from the Huawei P 20 event and the p20 Lite is already available for pre-orders in Poland yeah you can pretty much pre-order it now with a launch date on March 28th you're getting the Karen 659 processor Edition a 1080p display 3000 milliamp hour battery it doesn't look like a slouch at all obviously we'll learn more about it when we get to Paris for the event other official news come from Apple as the company has just announced that WWDC is happening on June 5th set your calendars as for Hardware it's really hard to predict we haven't heard much about that affordable home pod nor the other affordable Apple products we do hear that we're getting two iPads an 11 inch model on the twelve point nine inch model and apparently they'll bring face ID they'll kill the bezels bring a faster processor etc stay tuned we'll give you a rumor roundup as soon as we learn more as we get closer now let's talk about Siri and Apple as a well there is this very interesting article that just came out on the information where we actually have Siri engineers talking about well the product and how its really spurred a lot of fights between Apple over what Siri should be and what it is up to the point where we hear a lot of things like for example the fact that the home pod was going to be a standalone product and actually not include any Siri functionality up until Apple was interrupted on 2014 by the Amazon Alexa you know the echo speaker and so yeah Apple had to pretty much we engineer and reimagine the whole concept up to the point where delayed the home pod so long and we now know that the home pods out and people aren't really happy with the Syria implementation and we're not really happy with what Syria has become either I mean this was the first ever digital assistant that actually made headlines even though Microsoft at something earlier this was the best one in my opinion when it started now it's not let's see what happens to Siri going forward now let's water spotlight over to Nokia as we can't wait to hear more about that Nokia nine pencil and smartphone obviously just the whole concept of having different lenses and being able to rotate them around this great but even better apparently the company is not done there it seems that there will be a fingerprint scanner on the display as well I really the company has been working on this technology for a bit I'm really stoked I mean Nokia has been really killing it lately I can't wait to for them to come to the United States and finally the most interesting news today have to do with Google and the fact that the company has pretty much just surprised everybody by making the portrait mode that we have on the pixel 2 and pixel to excel now in open source technology this is rather interesting is probably one of the coolest features of the pixel 2 in pixel 2 Excel is that portrait mode the fact that software is able to detect the foreground and background and intelligently adapt the photograph depending on that I've praised that tremendously because it does a far better job than a lot of other smartphones that use hardware to do it that's all great it's not a guarantee that om is you're going to just pick this up and use it but I wouldn't understand why they wouldn't if it's now available to them and you know in today's question that's pretty much it I mean what would you like for OMS to do would you prefer for companies to continue what they're doing with triple lenses or dual lenses to achieve this will you prefer for them to just pick up the Google way and use software in my case let's use software guys I mean come on this is really cool it's what makes the pixels so cool but leave us a comment down below we'd love to know your opinion friends again if you
