there's no thank you face upon your pocket now and not a musician seriously think you're doing anyway so we are live welcome everybody to a special edition of pocket now live Samsung has got some stuff to talk about today we've been waiting for this event pretty much all year we are going to find out about the galaxy note 3 hot off the heels of one of the most popular smartphones of all time the galaxy note 2 which was a lot more successful in the first galaxies known as people start to realize that these big phones with with a stylus actually makes a lot of sense we are here with a bunch of guys were here with Adam and Taylor and hi May and Joe in his automobile on his nexus he's in his prius is it at Ostia how's the mpg game going all right now I'm getting zero miles if avail I'm significant your line well we've got some feedback in sport about where's that crazy if not coming from with shame who's watching the stream Adam hey it's not in its not me can't possibly me a lot more success first close me eyes ok everyone move your microphone except for me yeah good so galaxy note 3 we kind of know what to expect already without actually seeing it there haven't been that many leaks about the galaxy note 3 except kind of these front panels that look like the galaxy note 2 but with a thinner bezel and just like from the galaxy s4 or three to four we're going to get thinner bezels we're going to get a higher res screen 1080p which is going to be really nice we're probably going to get over that two gigabyte of RAM threshold that no smartphone has gone over yet probably to 2.5 or three gigabytes of RAM with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 CPU the fastest mobile chip that's out there it's it's going to be pretty amazing what I'm looking for is enhanced S Pen features I think features in the note 2 and the note 1 were a little bit gimmicky for my own use and really didn't didn't work towards the trade-off of having such a big phone I'll take a big phone with my small hands if it really increases my productivity so I'm going to present that question first as we're watching the live stream guys what will it take for you to use a note 3 as your daily driver let's start with Taylor because Taylor is a big note to user yeah it's interesting because I've kind of changed my stance I used the note 2 since the last announcement which was last september's is and I loved it and I finally kind of met my match with the Z ultra it's just too big and I kind of came to the conclusion that you know all this extra real estate is kind of a waste because I'm not like you said getting any more productivity out of it the s-pen does help but I'm really not using my phone in any different way than it would the 4.7 inch Moto X the one or even a 5 inch phone I'm surprising you say that Taylor because no matter what phone you're reviewing you always seem to have the note 2 also in your other pocket yeah and I have for a year now and and maybe I'm just kind of taking a sabbatical from large phones because the Z ultra was just way too big and be very upset yeah it did it upset me and it ruined my life um are you here any recovered I'm in the recovery phase right now go into therapist and whatnot drugs don't know yeah so I kind of took a step back I carry two phones now and for the majority of the last year I carried just one phone so that was a big difference carrying a big phone if you're only having one phone in your pocket one thing having two phones makes it a lot different and having a large foam as a second phone is yeah makes my pants really tight that's too much information I should also mention i should also mention that today we're expecting the the announcement of the galaxy gear samsung's first SmartWatch which I think has the opportunity to do what Apple was expected to do which is propel the SmartWatch industry forward um a few you guys use the pebble watch I don't use it because I don't think it's going to do enough for me Joe's got his pebble watch their Taylor's guys have a watch Adam looks like he's getting pebble watch Jaime's got some silver anything that doesn't this how many does that tell you how many emails you have does it tell you the temperature you know I I think my phone does a better job man I think that's my problem but it looks just like a pebble I was gonna say I'm just gonna put a wrist strap on my fear ah well that that's a smart watch so yeah now we're talking close enough so so like this is this is pretty big I'm probably more excited for the SmartWatch thing because I think there's a big future in in a wearable computer on your wrist but I don't think anyone's figured it out yet and I think the technology is almost not ready and we're going to see a device from Samsung i think is going to be a little thick a little weak on battery life and a little bit limited and i think the real year of the SmartWatch I hate to say it it's going to be when Apple comes out with theirs because you know they're the kind of guys that will come up with something that is a little beyond our expectations and will fulfill any that we didn't know we have but maybe Samsung you know will surprise us so we are watching the live stream here and we are watching violins now hey Brandon you reviewed an LG Smart Watch years ago oh how was that oh my god I I was looking at that a few months ago that was barely a smart watch it was it was actually like a miniature phone you put a sim card in it um you're kidding me no it wasn't like a terminal like the pebble um you could die it had a dialer on it it was very Dick Tracy like and I I don't remember what operating system in Iran um I think they're about to show the galaxy note 3 yeah they're talking about the note 2 in the note right now you know they they've got to stop this hyper quase thing especially if they're going a little bit bigger on the screen you got to have a good grip on such a large phone somebody say that's what she said anyway check this out some adjectives to describe the victory slimmer lighter larger faster I rest after punk Wow yeah we are so that punk when you need them how about Kanye one lunch is I Kanye yeah I ever saw him I saw him for the note to a US launch event and i did not enjoy myself i did because it was an open bar but that's only why wow so they've got this awesome immersive surround screen thing holy moly I so do you think they can't go any bigger yes right there man oh my gosh it's a razor blade oh no oh now now they're using the number monikers oh that was numerals so its galaxy note 3 with a three nah they're done with it or else people Thunder yes oh snap son what are we looking at is that a leather oh yeah yeah it is maybe that's a cupboard a special cover Wow stitching on it haha I thought has stitches there no it looks huge it looks like the note too but like we described thinner bezels school more squarish screens bigger definitely it's thinner I mean exactly like we oh that's really cool how they put the three and like cursive oh that's interesting very much that's a cool move there it is that's too cool hey look that thing doesn't look that big in his hand I mean how big can that guy be it doesn't look like it helps any bezel you know just like the galaxy s4 it's exactly like this looks exactly like this the S Pen is totally different yeah accordingly according to wikipedia he's 8 foot to know I was about to say that's is that so was that basketball who's that basketball player that used to play for the Houston uh what's best chinese basketball player for you yo sorry forgot about that Taylor yah yah yah what is what is basketball look at that yeah design that's I think that's an optional cover the weather stitch thing I think that helped me I'm on board I'm all aboard you're on board for a extra bulky cover that's made out of faux leather yes so Apple is moving away from the stitch leather and Samsung is pulling it in uh well software and hardware two different things photo recipes and I photorealism should die a horrible horrible painful death alright so so apparently one of the things that this phone is gonna do better is powerful multitasking oh god I would love to see that see that that's really the point of a big screen what's the point about carrying a gigantic screen if it's just gonna be a bigger experience of something you can already do in a smaller phone there's no point you don't need to see Twitter in five point seven inches of glory you know much no no you know I guess that's the only reason why you know I wanted that note 2 and I enjoy using the note 2 because of the multiscreen but I now do that in the gs4 but but I guess that's the only reason why I wanted it really yeah there really is no phone that really gets multi thing right yet and hopefully this is the one I doubt it but hopefully God have you tried the espelette screen thing on the Galaxy products uh not the only galaxy product i have is a gs3 which doesn't have that i have done the whole watch the video while your texting thing so that's kind of fun but but i haven't actually had a side by side split screen that was one good thing about the the Z Ultra is a sony has done some pretty cool stuff with multitasking they they allow you to turn any widget that you have into a floating app or a small app as they call it so you can turn like I can turn my twitter feed if i use plume i can turn that twitter feed into a floating app and do several different things at once using that that's interviews it is actually yeah okay so wait a second are we look they're talking about the LTE speeds what do you do what season yeah baby yo look at the s-pen health how it kind of like hangs out I don't think it's optional that's not an optional cover every picture they've shown is I had that cover on the back I think you're right yeah okay wait a second wait a second he's showing his watch what uh there it is oh my allow the guy all right it's it's a lot of brushed metal a lot of brush metal and TouchWiz oh god please no oh god no no he's wearing an orange watch it doesn't look quite right for a businessman oh my god as well is this a pocket-handkerchief though so I just tweeted galaxy gear nope because that looks like a glorified pebble with a touchscreen you know my my tail is is flaccid right now there's no I find it very unattractive I mean first impressions really matter and I don't think I would want to wear that it's too like techie looking dish out it's not elegant do you guys agree knowing why I would have loved a metallic ban and that's yeah that's the way I like him that doesn't look like it's compatible with other bands though so yeah I mean you got screws so you might be able to replace it with another samsung band but you can't put your sweet I don't even remember what the pdx I don't know what it is not PD kk t things are transmission and suppose so ah come on come on Joe that would be nice BMO what what is this thing go you mind can we can we try to figure this out what does it do it makes calls or texts calls err ok let's see it smart freedom so you get notifications I mean it'll be interesting to see what it actually does yeah it matches your phone color though it is that's all it does that's it that's it it's just a screen you greet you in the morning tells you whatever you want SmartWatch with in my orange camera it has a camera it has a camera I'll check out this promo what oh my gosh your Galaxy Note it does not have a camera ok no another galaxy bro hey Jim Hey Joe look I mean listen but by the way listeners though and readers and viewers those of you that are joining right now we're going through the Samsung event and this probably the fastest event which kind of has me worried because that could mean that we are getting tap dancing after this finishes the guy is really the guy just breezed through the Galaxy Note 3 and then he breezed through the gap a year and now we're getting the galaxy note 10.1 well and i'll probably take 15 minutes on it this is this is a surprise okay oh my god yes the screen resolutions 2560 by 1600 that's the same as the nexus 10 thank god that's going to be an awesome tablet final group it only one over here to recreate the tablet they already made I know okay look it's gonna have twit it's got to come to come with Twitter okay Brandon let me understand is why would you prefer this tablet it not the nexus 10 that you can already buy because it's it's it's a more productivity or into tablet with a with a stylus I mean it's good perfect for getting a little bit more work done also gonna be hyper blues it's gonna be hyper glazed well and I'm not sure I necessarily need a stylist on ax ya Tony highness it's it's probably going to have a Snapdragon 800 which is a lot better than the true Exodus look at this 3 i'm really actually pretty impressed that they're doing a tablet in i believe i've noted on 15 minutes i will probably buy the note 3 now because really the only thing I didn't like about the note 2 was hyper glaze yeah it's gone and they replaced it with stitched leather talari leather that's all of it that wins me over man Taylor take your note to apply some sandpaper and you've got Saturday all right so we got three new products denounced and now the tap dancers on stage everyone no no it looks like he's wearing some hipster version google glass renewing is up with this got this guy's shades what he wants to be bono that's I told you it's a hipster version of google glass now he's apparently a very popular guy in the UK I don't know who he is or what he does but apparently he's very popular I think cam Bunton of uh today's iphone told me that I don't know maybe it's all happened way too fast can some yes that's what is it listen baby they pretty much didn't talk about the galaxy gear he just went through the fact that you get notifications and then you have camera what else is there to say about this thing I mean I guess that the biggest news today is the fact that the Galaxy Note just you know got much better and pretty much the note tablet version just became what it should have been since day one I wish they would do that with the 8-point know like like for example I would like the 8-inch tablet to have you know a much better resolution display and everything I don't know a big tablet with an S Pen is like imagine that big thing and white screen with the stylus I don't know it's uncomfortable for me Joe you were viewed it well yeah especially when you when you've got a UI that's not tablet oriented this not tablet specific that's not him friendly it's just it's a big screen and that's all it is and there's something to be said for that but we gotta get something where we're moving more to a stylus friendly environment we're having the stylist really adds something in right now spen its its novelty there are some things that it does well and a whole bunch of things that it doesn't that it should do well yeah hey guys yeah I eat I need to jump off which it's convenient because everything happened already Rob yeah but I'm gonna be I'm gonna be watching later to see what you guys actually think about this one some specs hit the wire I'm watching my inbox for an official press release and I we should afford it or you guys send it to me um yeah but yeah does have a the galaxy or does have a camera I found an article on it nice I oh yeah what what that's for I don't know that's like a it's probably like a vga camera alright so for those for those of you that have just joined the we were getting some few oh no Joe it's she what were you saying sorry and wouldn't it be cool with galaxy gear the watch were miracast enabled and it was basically a second screen so you could have that to screen experience in your pocket and on your wrist you can watch youtube videos on your watch you want to do that anybody pass I don't want to do that I want a bigger screen to watch my videos that a smaller one I don't know I just I keep fumbling with the cons of a SmartWatch it's just that I'm trying to see ya it's like I have my phone right here if I get a notification I have the choice between looking at my watch and looking at the phone and it's it's like that whole air of you just your thing it's like what's easier looking at the display and touching it or doing this let's see here if your phones in your pocket looking at your wrist is much easier that's the whole room if you're driving for example that can also be like the perfect distraction by the way no I mean I have my hand on the steering wheel or usually just one hand and it's right here you just look down its I'm not looking for you yeah you're supposed to be looking on bro yeah you oh just a notification on my phone I'm gonna reach down and pick it up and look or look down at it and if it's right here on my wrist I'm already I'm looking down two inches versus staring down a my waist Taylor's ranch in in his pockets get his phone he's gonna run off that none and it's just gonna be a sad day instead Hirano for them we actually actually have auto breaking on my car just for nuns it should be men and sorry Adam you're gone couldn't hear anything yet yeah I'm starting to learn to read lips but anyways listeners viewers welcome to our special episode of the Parker now why we're covering yet damn son got gotten used to that sorry sorry Adam but we're get going through the Samsung event we will give you a little recap we have a new Galaxy Note 3 we have a new galaxy gear which we still don't know much about and we've got a new Galaxy Note 10.1 the differences are you know you'd think that they're not substantial because the Galaxy Note 3 looks a lot like the galaxy s4 but you know I think Samson got the cue that nobody likes the hyper glaze coding because they've got this like sort of Matt stitch leather um a sort of a back panel instead of the current hyper glaze that we see in the s4 so that's that's really like stepping it up a notch like okay business professional yay yeah it's like okay fine you know that's actually very bad blackberry you remember the old bull love urgent that I love that design yeah yeah so thank go ahead I guess it was the ninety ninety nine hundred um the one with no leather back on it it wasn't it was that it was the 9000 action well there was the nice out of all the 9900 headed to several of them did yes so I guess they finally got that Q that nobody likes the hyper glaze they're getting rid of it that's great i wish they wouldn't i wish they would offer a nominal go ahead what he's talking about the i can't hear him the audio is very low really let me see if i get him here okay so he's describing the note designed the whole new aesthetic he's called the back cover leather but it's not actual leather okay okay listen we don't we don't want it to be real leather we just don't want it to be shiny and all glossy and ugly that's really what we want I mean Jace of the bowl that was never it was never leather in the case of the bolt no no it was never leather um but yeah I mean okay so we've got a bigger galaxy s4 and they made this new backing which I wish they would bring to the galaxy as far as well they might you'd like their flip covers or hopefully hopefully and for seventy dollars they better because that's what they're charging for that damn flip cover I told myself that I wasn't going to get the note 3 that I didn't care and something as simple as leather on the back or pleather has totally changed my mind that's all it takes for me I'm so easy to win over okay so we've got a couple of color options look at this jet black classic white and blush pink color options Motorola is going to sue Samsung because they also have a blush color option yeah well pathway a second there are apparently more color options or that could be just leatherbacks that you can buy that are optional I think that yeah I mean look we've got the storage we've all it rain blue what they have a flip wallet case that's oh look at that look at that look at the front panel the thing is there is this huge delay in the you see the front panel you see the swap and I think we lost Joe yeah we did it's the S viewer coverage what they're called holiday glam hey that's pretty swanky whoa I like that red oh that red okay so we're looking at more colors right now that they're offering they've got electric read some sort of unarmed this I said this on the podcast I said that Samsung is going to jump in the color option thing too and all they're gonna do is throw in a battery door and it makes sense i mean what in the case of samsung it is just so easy for them to do it now and they kind of did it with the galaxy s3 you remember those like blue I've actually got this for the s3 yeah you've got that for the note 2 so you know I guess that's so far um the galaxy note 3 is not at all a disappointment obviously we have to wait for our hands on coverage from Tony and Michael which are on in Berlin at the show floor um probably my biggest concern is the galaxy gear we didn't see anything they pretty much just the guy just showed his notification on his watch that Samsung CEO and then he came up and said ok so I just gotta know they just got a notification and Joe and got some lovely feedback you know it might be coming up though cuz you know they started off the the mini presentation went note three gear and then followed by the the the 10 so now as did the note 3 again so they could be coming around to the gear again so wait yes doesn't make sense be hey this is what we got and then people tuned out like this we'll see how that goes welcome because learn how to make look president tap dancing kids does make sense is that where we are no oh wait wait a second no tap dancing please please no tap dancing come on I don't know those shows were kind of clicky when he was coming out on stage they were British hey welcome right you all right so Joe before we lose you again first impressions on the galaxy note 3 galaxy gear and the 10.1 what do you think ok so disclaimers up front I am mobile I have not seen what you guys have been seeing so I'm going just on what you have been relaying to me another it has pleather I love that I you guys saw the back of my Nexus or so it's it had leather but it was final I did that I think it's professional I think it looks good I'm finally not super slick slimy blade so I'm really happy with yeah okay and and what about You mr. Dowd before you go on mute yeah millions of fake cows are shaking in their boots right now as they're looking at the note through this note 3 it's pretty much what I expected bigger slimmer longer faster stronger and all that Kanye stuff um the the gear I just I'm so on the fence about smart watches I just think people are I think they're almost trying to do too much I just I'm just not sure that the SmartWatch is there yet I think you don't know you don't know yeah usually you up and we can we Anna we lost you man who else you know we will give you a choice of a new computer or Adam doubt is our new mine at pocket matter okay all right it's funny I'll go off on the High God are you touching your keyboard at all because it auto mutes if you hit the keyboard so yeah yeah when you talk just put your hands up like this okay so while you're okay that's true mr. moon this is a new feature here um air command so good more proprietary pictures no wait a sec that's actually cool like it's good as we cannot yeah and the galaxy note 2 u.u tap twice with the s pen and it would give you the notes but now you get more options you can actually tap and hold and you get the option of a screenshot it's like that whole next is dumb actually that that that was not Nexus that was actually the whole camera UI from the the Motorola Xoom from like years ago I remember like no like the quick command or the quick controls in the browser that that is no longer around or pie controls yeah the ventricles exactly that that's actually cool what about you Taylor how are you feeling about everything um I'll probably get one I wasn't gonna get one I didn't care and now I'll probably get one yeah yeah you know it my personal thing did we see how big the screen is because I haven't read anything on it and I've not only been like listening like Tim person so I think it's something look up uh hold on hold on us great see twitch other uh it's gonna be defined okay five point seven inches on the display stop getting bigger ah the way it is on weight the weight is 168 grams does anybody remember what was the weight of the note 183 how much do you weigh let me try oh that's actually like a lot lighter um I'm pretty sure this one wait a second is that lighter than the Lumia 920 wait hold on i'm looking it up the 920 is 180 i believe yeah that's like 183 is a note too so yeah I had that right I got a really good memory uh yes 2920 is 185 so yes it's lighter well in the no tools letter I guess all right so how many viewers do we have Taylor we have 255 viewers okay thank you for joining our live stream of what's going on at the Samsung event I guess that uh you know I guess we're not disappointed about what we're seeing I you know we are phablet users at least Taylor and I we like the note 2 and i think that the note 3 it's funny all it took was a backplate all it took was a different back plate for us to be like okay yeah we want this phone and that should tell samsung something yeah well yeah so it's it's really in our court as customers to really make a big deal out of this and say we like this we want this so they bring us to their phone line beautiful I don't want a leatherback on my smart watch though so damn good for them back on that strap maybe back to Washington yeah yeah that's going to be guarding I was just going to say the the one thing that doesn't look like it's changed is the fake metal trimmer on the outside so that I didn't like that only s4 didn't like it on the s3 and like only s2 I've never liked it or the the nexus 4 I just don't like fake metal it you're you're either going to use metal or use plastic don't try to make me think you're using metal and then in the case of blackberry what was that metallic trim was it plastic or metal do you remember it depends on what phone it was the bold 9000 was metal a lot of the times it was it was most the time was plastic with the bold 9000 was aluminum yeah yeah thats its man i want this guy's glasses i need a pair of shades like um somebody in the comments on YouTube said his name and he's the host of the gadget show reasonably popular his name is jason bradbury i have no clue who he is but i have AC library jason bradbury that's I guess popular in the UK not here no offense but I don't know he is we've got some more comments on YouTube we love you pocket now thanks for live coverage thank you for joining really appreciate it vardaan is telling us that it's a 5.7 inch 1080p display yes I wish we could do you have the pixel pixel per inch calculator I Brandon's not here yeah a resolution is a 1080 yeah yeah Brandon's like an automatic so we're getting cilix this stuff up before that's why yeah yeah yeah 8680 stop 386 386 that's that's good okay so apparently now 11 interesting twist here apparently this phone is not offering a 16 gigabyte option apparently they're starting with 32 gigs nothing wrong with that now appreciate that one that's that's really that's I want to know the new contract pricing and I need to check my email to Seoul Alaskan 32 and a 64 yeah yeah 3264 plus expandable storage oh ho that's beautiful you Adam doubt he says his computer is just not handling it well so he's off we all miss you out of God well so long mr. mime we'll see you next time okay so somebody's asking us how are the comments to the note 3 in relationship to the Xperia z1 so these are two different category phones um the Xperia z1 is actually what the experience he should have always been I think that's our general consensus before we started this call um obviously the problem with the z1 is that we're still waiting to get our hands on it because um the biggest issue with the Xperia Z is hey I was there at CES when they announced it and I did not see any any viewing angle issues until we actually got the review unit so yeah we don't really know I remember I look at the display from all angles and everything looked fine until I review units arrived it's like if they're made a last-minute engineering decision to go for a much cheaper display but it's not really what we saw at the event that was the event that a guy grabbed a phone out of my hand while I was shooting a video really it was a German guy I was shooting a video and I was just I had my camera pressed up against my body and I was holding the phone talking about it and I did this like I tilted my head back and he just ripped it out of my hand started shooting his own you're kidding me I was not happy and by the time I finished talking to him he put the phone down and walked away yeah I was very angry what did you get all that on film no that's that ok start off the camera when I think I might go a little crazy yeah so so far I guess that the biggest the biggest mystery here is is what to expect from the galaxy gear I mean even a samsung executive came up and said that it was a concept product that apparently it won't be like the mainstream device that a lot of people are expecting and I guess that's actually accurate i mean the CEO barely showed it off for those of you that are just joined joining the event that's pretty much the way it's gonna be I don't think that they're actually going to retail that thing until Apple pulls over there SmartWatch so there um I think you're showing off chat on does anybody actually use chat on no no I noticed that you can easily copy a message from one side from one message to let school BS friend that's cool but nobody uses chat on nobody and literally they had to ask someone to sign up so they could shoot that little clip right there okay okay so you know it's funny because for example Fisher has a note to and Taylor has a note to I have a note to as well and I guess I'd like the only one that doesn't really use the S Pen much and and we were talking about this on the pack podcast recently and I guess the reason why I don't use it is because yeah first of all you're kind of obligated to TouchWiz meaning the S Pen is completely I mean if you want to root the phone and use the S Pen and anything that is not touch was you can't well why not just use your finger at that point exactly and get well yeah but for example I yeah the note and put the note taking that's actually cool that's fine but I guess that you really have to love TouchWiz if you want to get yourself a galaxy note that's like the you know the bottom line yeah the the downside to this is that we can't hope for a galaxy amana galaxy google play edition get note 3 and that's unfortunate because it wouldn't be and this would be useless but i was just going to say I carried this around in my pocket just to feel normal when I'm not using the note 2 oh look at this Taylor they're doing the whole small apps thing from the experience on the note with the S Pen huh so the calculator day Samsung's done floating apps before yeah but they did it with the tablets they didn't do it with it with the phone well they've done pop up video pop up browser yeah big diet before yeah but not with the calculator for example not with like but you know who uses a calculator nobody can calculate I do i do I suck at numbers back in here man anyway okay the galaxy gear versus the sony smartwatch what are your options well the iWatch wait for it uh the sony smartwatch don't just don't do it don't do it please know i guess i guess i guess my biggest concern with the galaxy Gear's the fact that it's just another sony smartwatch it's just look the difference that you get touch was on this one and you get a camera at a camera and you get a camera so you can you could totally be stalking your friends with your watch be like hey look at this on photo photo opportunity come on people in the comments are correcting me I said 386 pixels per inch and they said actually it's 380 6.47 pixels per inch because that 47 absolutely matters that's awesome Cory Watford thank you very much okay all right point of further clarification a pixel is a pixel you really can't get sub pixels without breaking the math yes yeah a little bit will give it so let's round up I was talking in school so will this round up because you can't have a half pixel but but it's less than half okay so we have to round out but no if you're rounding four holes you can't have a half so you have to round up you can't have another person or half a pixel and you can't count it out so we're rounding up okay seven so it was new stuff so somebody is asking us in the comments if this is a non pentile display do all the galaxy note 2 was a non pentile display so we're just we're guessing that they're sticking to the RGB display range for was pinto yeah but i guess the s4 is just something different i guess they do that they jump around you can't just they have no rhyme and rhythm to it they're just really like i will look true so sometimes they know yeah the note 2 was non pentile so we are assuming that the note 3 will be non pentile as well but obviously we still don't know that we it'sit's that's kind of a tough one now one thing is for example one of the things about this and 3 the special is apparently it'll and it makes sense apparently there will be just one unit that does all the LTE bands that you need um which goes completely against the rumors in the past that there were seven different units of the note 37 different variants now apparently there is between one of those leaks that we saw which were probably prototypes apparently there will be an active version of the note 3 that is something that will most probably happens shoe that is something that will make Michael very very happy oh yeah it's gonna make Michael pee in his pants probably something worse than that but he'll you'll be able to use it because it works when it's wet right okay right that's that's what I'm saying yeah yeah you gotta Joe you got it you got the fine so you're saying he'll pee in his pants just to test it yes going directions I them and then you won't have to send it back because nobody wanted after that yeah so the mess on the comments are saying my mom has a note one and she's never uses the s-pen I'm like well does she carried in a backpack you guys remember how wide that no one was that is why does the the LG optimus view yeah but then that that note one was like I remember when I saw at the ferg for the first time in Barcelona because I could I didn't see it at Eddyville Tony saw it and I couldn't see it until I got to Barcelona the next year and I looked at that thing and I was like man who is gonna buy this thing and apparently a lot of people did Wow deal so there's really not any information on the note 3 yet not that I'm saying no apparently we're apparently we're going to talk about wearables now so yes probably we will be getting more information on the Galaxy gear now let's hope because this is it's weird how they did this presentation with here will show you everything up front and then it's over and I'll show you more about it later again kind of weird really backwards probably samsung CEO didn't want to be you know he didn't want to be on stage for a long time so that's the reason why he announced everything and then ok so here we go apparently we are getting this SmartWatch information now all right in there there we go yeah it's got a camera in the wristband oh so there is no way you're gonna replace that wristband for that wristband which is the first thing that everybody replaces when they get a pebble and how many how long is it going to take to scratch that lens up because it's right here oh oh man that is maybe two who's I deal with that that is that is gonna be yeah that is the most scratched up part of my band and is that natural like where's your viewfinder most probably the camera most probably that so you have to look down at it you're gonna look like this gonna be but this is gonna be like the perfect tool for candid shots as long as they don't make this like a vga camera or something like that hey somebody go out and make a website right now just for candid active shots or whatever film-- is where shop smart watchful shots candid gear shots candidate in here NSFW gear com two categories one NSFW and one LOL sfw okay three categories and everything else just defaults to creepy yeah yeah alright so paperwork though okay so we're getting a comment that says pentile will ruin the display samsung please don't use it you know you know pentile was an issue when you had qvga can you make this noise again Hyman ok it's ok entao is an issue with you it has many gigs of ram yes what for for like three photos what's the size of that camera three gigs of ram and a two point three gigahertz quad-core probably Snapdragon 800 I'm guessing um you're getting a Snapdragon 800 on the watch I want to see that no no no no the note 3 i'm gonna talk about galaxy okay we're talking on my school years a come on my phone has two gigs of ram my watch has fired what we share gigabytes of RAM between each other when that'd be cool you get bluetooth Ram sharing okay so okay so you're swiping through this that okay I can say that a one inch touch screen display is probably one of the worst experiences I've ever had I my head it with the little iPod Nano and I put a watch band on it it was so awful man i really want a tip the art there's nothing state-of-the-art about a one inch display okay is that okay is that what that is that thing waterproof that's what I want I'm never gonna buy a watch if it's not waterproof very trap well water resistant at least water-resistant whatever three advil that's the kind of the standard for watches and then eat okay so is it with me is it just me or I really want to talk to somebody in samsung and just I really want to learn what is their love for black why are they always bringing these black user interfaces everywhere it's like why is that color black emmalin you I amoled amoled is well I do i do understand that but but come on it's it's terrible I mean AMOLED it's either battery life where or not yeah you're there saving precious battery life that's why I do it you got a point so this is crafted by stainless steel it is still alive you know that's interesting because the iphone was stainless steel and i was a heavy phone 1.63 inch Super AMOLED display with a 320 x 32 knee resolution single core 800 megahertz Exynos processor metal face and I'm looking for megapixel count on the camera 4 gigabytes of on-board storage 299 s asking price $300 Wow five hundred dollars for something that will just save you a couple of seconds from pulling phone out of your pocket it's 1.9 megapixel camera 1.9 yeah oh yes yes that's it that's what I wanted 720p what do you want to stay yo I don't know if I want to say it anymore huh come on fire away go twice as much money for a pebble for in this it's basically just a colorable touchscreen with a camera yeah and you're paying twice as much for it it's gonna adds 1.9 megapixel camera though you could take sweet shots with that take a 720 video argument and say but I've got a camera on my phone why don't I just pull out my phone okay so so the latest second apparently you can't take calls with that thing apparently you can relay the calls from your phone to your watch speaker phone yeah a Dick Tracy speaker phone tab yo what's up how's everything shoot I don't care about that can i search google now from my watch that's really the only thing that would even vindicate the Z would be cool now ok Google now that would ban ah yes a phone went crazy ok now see that Taylor would be cool if you could you know just interact with Google now and not necessarily just whole what the the speaker and microphone are in the wristband so so yeah bro yeah oh oh you're kidding these you're gonna pull a mission impossible with that you're gonna be like yeah alright yeah call my MA look samsung come on I mean this is kind of cool but in a way like like it's cool to really nerdy people because I don't mind my phone like this I would talk like this all day because I think that's awesome I think it's amazing and I would feel like a superhero or some kind of super spy oh hi this is the ninety-nine percent yeah ninety-nine percent of the population would be like I'm not talking on a watch like this is stupid okay so this is gonna sound kind of you know kind of bad but I feel this is like one of those moments from like men i'm glad i work at pocket now is we're gonna get review units on this thing we're gonna do the whole dick tracy thing and not pay the three hundred dollars but oh no no s voice I don't want s voice nobody nobody in their right mind wants SP 00 I wonder I wonder if it lags and if you disable s voice if it runs perfectly smooth but it's okay so why is he behind all the time because s voice is enable your your some lags because s voice is enabled on your watch okay so fine fine viewers this is not just the pebble it's got more things than a pebble it's just that none of these features are actually were never proven to be good um these were at AO Gabrielle a I guess that's how you pronounce it i slaughtered your name whatever he said um what were they smoking when they created the galaxy gear oh they work smoke a pebble that's for sure whoa whoa dropping bombs over here Joe Levi hey what's going on on Twitter alright that's me so so okay so the galaxy gear is Nemo Gregory I'm trying to find out what this memo grapher is so it's almost two o'clock same here uh-huh Damian at least we don't have tap dancing that's that's you know Tony must be still sitting down okay so wait a second so you can what what you can read texts at what we like okay so they're saying that you can take a picture of text with your wristwatch one you're gonna have to like you can't see it if you're taking a picture straight down and that also means that to read the text you're going to like that can you pinch to zoom on this thing you're going to have long as my technology you're going to have you met technology and cross your eyes to pinch to zoom on the watch money should hire me okay so this says don't like great great moments live awake listen I I feel that the whole concept of taking a photo at a candid moment has already been solved with the phone Jones are on Joe leave I froze at the best time possible had the best time puzzles is this is it you know I think ok so the question is Taylor does the SmartWatch okay you use your pebble hazard really okay so think about it think about not using your pebble think about uh the fact that you would have to sell it for any particular reason what would you miss the most about it just the notifications I don't care about taking a picture with my watch I get a notification and my phone I can leave it in my my room when I'm at home or I can leave it on the desk when I'm here I can leave my phone somewhere I don't have to have it on me all the time and if I get a call or somebody text me i look at my wrist you know i have to worry about my phone being right near me all the time that and changing music those are the only two things that are you care about and that's what it does really was so apparently you'll be able to install applications there are there's path there's banjo there's oh god there is even a golf game golf application you're probably the track where you are hello Joe you frozen great laughs whoo whoa that was that was harsh I'm sorry sorry okay stop amazing Joe 11 commented on YouTube three hundred dollars you can get a nexus 4 4 199 I was about to say no you can't anymore they're kind of you can get it for you can still get it for 250 which is fifty dollars cheaper than the watch yep and i agree with VAR Danne um Taylor you should work for them they should hire me because I have great ideas okays crossing your eyes to zoom on something rising cross is innovative new innovative God you know you okay so this is probably what I'd like the best comments of the day seriously why would you pay for this SmartWatch when you can just go get a nexus 4 yeah you know it's this is okay so wait a second let's assume that they say and let's okay what what is the price gonna be on the LG Nexus 5 what do you think the price is gonna be it's relieved at least there be 300 or less yeah yeah it's gonna be three hundred dollars amazing but I yeah what what yeah but most probably they're not gonna pull a gigabytes anymore I think they're moving away from make digs yeah oh yeah if you throw home if you put a boat with 8 gigabytes on the market and people buy it they're gonna be upset with themselves after just a few months so just save yourself the trouble don't make an 8 gigabyte phone ever again that is not enough storage for anyone let's move on from that let's start with 32 gigabytes and go to 128 because Samsung has made 128 man chips and I'm sure they're not cheap my light just been out alright so when will Google release a nexus SmartWatch I don't think they ever will umm don't say that I want the nexus watch right is throwing I mean they're playing with their Google glass and google glass nobody much this what what Helia just hang google smartwatch the other day wait a second so they're they're finally saying that you can record 4k video and then three google acquired win labs yes I forgot about that yet google acquired win labs so Google is working on its own SmartWatch yes and true okay so by the way for those of you that didn't know you can record 1080p at 60 frames per second there is 4k video on this thing and you will never be able to watch it because you'll probably get rid of the phone and then bluemix phone and you'll probably be by the galaxy note 7 when you'll be able to actually have one of those 4k TVs in your living room in correct hi mate there is one for thirteen hundred dollars on amazon and it's actually really good really yeah which one 19 I would have to pick my mic up to drop it so I don't want to do that um but what would you say ok so we're finally getting the specs of the note 3 but we won't we already good went through them but i guess probably i don't know 4k videos like oh man well here's my point than i've been making in in the pocket now forums um I gotta drop that plug in there uh I've been saying that there have been people asking what is the point of 4k video because we can't take advantage of it and the there are three reasons it's going to exist in phones right now one is marketing if you've got a 4k recorder like a the ability to record video in 4k versus an ATP obviously people are going to God can record 4k they don't care if they can use it or not you know many people went nuts over 3d video and 3d pictures with the evo 3d it was yeah and then and even know and I was horrible listen send the next year and then the next year no phone came out with 3d that wasn't enough yeah but for case that's not going to happen because 4k is actually going to be a standard 3d was not a standard 3d is not something people actually want I go to a movie I go to an imax theater i hope they don't have 3d because i know you had watching 3d mice I ditch 3d I don't paint I don't pay more money to actually get a headache watching a movie yeah but with with 4k it's different because it's just resolution it's it's a better clearer picture and no this 4k recording is probably not going to be that great it's not going to be great but the point is if you have 4k video recording how great is your 1080p going to be so you have a 4k the ability to record in 4k they've made that possible you can probably record really great 1080p it is possible well at least you're getting 60 frames per second on tonight impedance that's awesome that's cool exactly that's kind of the point is it beefed it up so much you can get 60 FPS ok so if ability to zoom don't forget that you can zoom into the parts that you're really interested ok that's what I was about to say that's what I was about to say ok so but this requires software the problem is doing that Joe require software like for example I use I'll cut to edit my videos um and so far Final Cut does not support 4k it should support soon but it doesn't support it so there's no point of me being able to pull that clip if I won't be able to do the zooming so if Sampson gives me 4k video on that phone but I won't be able to edit the video within the phone so that I can crop into the portion that I want and get a 1080p clip that is with lossless zoom if they did lossless zoom video on a phone through the 4k specs oh that okay that would be man that would just throw it out of the park right there so I'm thinking step outside of us and are we shoot videos we edit videos with colors videos way back in the day when DVD can write one of the features was pop in the disc and you could zoom into parts of the DVD as you are watching it so appliance a metaphor here consumers will be able to zoom in on their screens and see detail hey retailers I mate yeah hi may I have to call you out because you told me I was wrong you called me out on the podcast and said I was wrong I said the Lumia 1020 did lossless video will also zoom in 1080p in the video so you have the 41-megapixel sensor you can zoom in and do 1080p at four times oom lossless interesting no I don't know I know yep so you can do that and judging by that you could do the same thing with a fork a sensor or 4k video recording where you just zoom in and you you actually just do it at the time of capturing the video not post processing I will have to have the phone with me it's it's or for any of us to test that I guess again it's it's it's something cool to have but if there was the software to be able to actually take advantage of that it's like okay I took the video right now but I want to zoom into a portion of it in 1080p because you know I was like it it was it was a baseball game and I was so far back but I want to actually see this special portion so I want to cut into it that's what I want uh they don't have tap dancing this time but they have a video of puppeteers like fake puppeteers break dancing and stuff I'm sure Michael is going nuts oh yeah Tony's most probably out of the event right I don't know what Joe's doing either I did a puppeteer oh all right we're not a couple of tears but puppets like string puppets marionettes marionettes that's the word I was looking for okay so for the record ladies and gentlemen viewers I how many viewers do we have to we have 259 nice thanks for watching guys thank you for joining so far i want the note 3 I think you want the note 3 Taylor what about you Joe oh yeah I want to get back into S Pen a commoner just said r.i.p hd-dvd a lot of acronyms there but our HD DVD died with blu-ray blu-ray just demolished it so HD DVD has been going for a long time if you bought an HD DVD player I'm sorry what is use this for playing all your HD DVD discs that you bought when you thought it was gonna win so soma tell Gabrielle is asking what we really need for K it's like well you don't really need it but that's not the point that's not it the third point that I didn't get to that I kind of got sidetracked for the third point that I was going to make is it pushes innovation so we were saying the exact same thing about 1080p displays in phones we don't need 1080p and 1080p is overkill the 720p display looks just fine I'm at most sizes the 720p display on the note 2 doesn't look horrible it's not the best but it doesn't look that bad teenager dissolution overkill but the whole point of 1080p is that it pushed innovation and now our displays are absolutely amazing their mind blowing and that's going to be the same thing with the the video resolution you can record in 4k and it's going to force other people to improve their video quality just like the 41-megapixel sensor in the Lumia 1020 is going to force other cameraman or mobile manufacturers to make better cameras so its innovation pushing forward that's all it is do you remember way back when we were playing with the the nexus one and we were shooting videos on how to hand that to enable HD video recording on it and it was a huge big thing because we could yeah we dropped frames all over the place but we did yeah but the difference was really because we can yeah but the difference was Joe that back then you could afford a HD display you know HD was becoming it was already the thing back then so um ok so i guess that the only the only I don't know I you the only positive thing that I see about 4k is the fact that this is really gonna force manufacturers to not make camp quarters expensive you know that yeah that's up so it brings prices downs it brings prices down it brings up competition and it forces other people to innovate so yeah it's good all around do we need it no but that's not the point at all like when we were at CES you remember that Sony demo that 4k camera and it was like what was the price of that thing I don't know if it was like seven or eight thousand dollars it was very expensive it was really my and your base price for the television was like twelve thousand dollars yeah um it should shoot me to 20 grand sure beats 20 grand which is what Samson was charging for there's um but again I guess that I guess that that's that's like the only positive thing do you need for k no you don't but it is gonna make the market very interesting next year next year most probably you know these companies are going to wait and see and see what they get yes so needed it with the Xperia z1 these guys are doing it with the note 3 um you know and it's interesting wait a second because I'm sure that this is the same exact camera sensor of the galaxy s4 so most probably the next week that we're going to be seeing at xda-developers is people figuring out how to get 4k video out of the s4 nope why now the difference is your snapdragon 800 vs your 600 it's the capability of the processor i don't think the processor is capable I don't this that Snapdragon 600 is capable of recording that right over there well there will be a Snapdragon 800 version of the s4 and Joe you're gonna say something yeah I got Jeff's going over right now but yeah whether or not it can do it I bet they're gonna find a way to be able to do it even if you like five six frames a second out of it yeah do it basically you can make a really cool gif yeah stop porque gift which would be like like eight hundred megabytes for like a few minutes or like 30 second loop it's like eight hundred megabytes okay so one of our commenters is making bottle Maldonado saying here I got to wonder how long it will take for the note 3 to get tipped cat since the note 2 is still on 4.1 point to yes you okay so i guess the only disappointment that i have about about choosing a Samsung product right now is the fact that Samsung has been doing a terrible job in updating last year's phones well they did it on purpose they skipped for that too because for that three came out so quickly yes but now they're gonna be like oh we're gonna skip four not three because for that four is that I guess I just listen listen I mean I have okay so i have android 4.2 point2 on my HTC One X on the One X not even the HTC One has four point to point to and I already have it on the One X uh so I feel that Samson I you know okay so most probably listeners we will be and read and viewers we're most probably going to be seeing these updates now when the once the note 3 wants to know three retails they're gonna wait to sell them like hotcakes and then they're gonna offer you the update so most probably I'd wait for 2014 honestly and I'm talking about the s3 the s for the note to these devices will not see an update until the beginning of next year that's what I think yeah we didn't have a problem need to tell you all of their new devices before they update via talk like if you want to do less new product or wait for a reasonable amount of time after the new product is out before they're going to give it to you that's just it epworth I can't imagine this comes with a four dot too though this has got to come before dot 3 because for 231 out for a while well that was the rumor that we were getting four not three here yeah and in part we have to remember that part of the problem isn't Samsung on these firmware updates Samsung is pushed out updates very quickly to international devices it's a lot a lot of it has to do with US carriers so so or not even just US carriers but carriers in general because they were pushing they were about to push the fort at to update to the note 2 in I think Japan or somewhere I can't remember where it was but they were about to push the for that to update and then they said no we're gonna pull it in wait for four not three so yeah oh so they're showing an ad right now or they're sponsoring Leona and Missy you know it's the best soccer player in the world with with the whole note branding it yet does anybody have anything to say about the galaxy tab that sorry the galaxy note 10.1 uh it's a bigger note 3 now I mean is anybody getting it probably not no I'm now get a nexus 7 with LTE and call it a day yep yeah now that's what I was about to say you know it's just what could they price that tablet for a gimmicky feature that almost probably not use those are the ugliest hats have ever seen in my life they're the cheesiest hats I'm gonna just just like the guy's hat I'm sorry guys had the guys shade sorry I really hope they bring out a tap dancer just for my gold just provide for know they've got violence for him they've got Violetta's somebody could have danced to some violins okay so I believe that the event is pretty much wrapping up now I think we should let's look to be honest I mean the event was over five minutes in yeah yeah this is what we got ok thanks bye ok so the positive takeaways is that they have made the note a more desirable product I mean they've made it slimmer they later they made it slimmer they got rid of the hype blaze they're giving us 1080p we're getting the s-pen we're getting some smarter multitasking we're most probably getting 4.3 on this thing we're getting 4k video watch with a camera in the wristband that you can't use he can't use ok so the event is pretty much over um now they're they're probably gonna show is everything that's going on it's Times Square our own Michael and Anton are right now most probably walking to to their hands on boots which I am noticing that is outside the venue so we'll probably see them on camera right now hopefully Tony and raise your hand come on Tony all right so I guess that we I have a lot of good things to say about the note 3 and it's not because ok so we are like it's not that I hate it when people are like all these guys are Sam's and fanboys no we're not sponsored by Samsung we're not paid by them we don't get anything from them we review their products and we don't really it's not like if we gave the galaxy s4 a 10 out of 10 review like we did we gave it we gave a 92 the HTC One I gave the s4 like a 8.3 yeah there's an 8.4 yeah and we gave the HTC One a much better rating because of their choice of materials because honestly since five is a and I guess that's the only thing that I'm going to lay on the table I'll tell you who didn't get the memo that Samsung finally got and that's motorola because this thing is like yet lass it's not good it looks terrible so I guess the only point I guess the only point that i'm gonna make here is and this is something that i just need to say they like what they're showing a video clip of a woman trying to use like dial a number on the Galaxy gear and swipe around and it's not doing anything and she's like hitting all the wrong buttons yes great that's great they're like let's show this all no let's eat the guy with the camera like cutaway he's like let's go over here okay so honestly I guess the only negative thing that I see out of everything that we've seen today is touch with is that it looks exactly like what we've seen always TouchWiz is getting old yeah honestly I feel it touch was is getting old I mean I honestly they revived the HTC One X for me when they updated it to sense 5 I think that HTC finally got the memo yes this is what a better you wanna has to be it has to be minimal listening it has to be useful it has to be awesome typography has to be great and it has to be useful and you know TouchWiz well so they're shooting another video of this woman recording a video with her iPhone of the galaxy here that's a terrible thing but you know honestly the again the only thing that I don't like about this event is that TouchWiz is not is has not changed it's the same thing it needs a refresh it's it's been there long enough and now I mean even Apple is refreshing there you know then why and that's what TouchWiz is a copy of whether we want to admit it or not you know they need to do something so we can expect rainbow colors in a couple months I'm afraid we're gonna get rainbow Pascal my problem with TouchWiz is um okay so they've added a ton of features and a lot of its cool especially on the note lines you get a lot of multitasking stuff stuff specific to the s-pen things that you are useful you also get a lot of crap that's not and it bloats the crap out of the software so your your system image is like I don't know five gigabytes its enormous and you're not going to use half of the stuff but that's not the biggest problem the biggest problem is that it was created back when Android needed a facelift when Android was ugly as sin and it hasn't changed but Android has android looks so much better now but TouchWiz looks the exact same as it did way back when so well part of that problem is we're lumping in all of the tool S Pen features all of the pool s all all of that and with TouchWiz which is the UI where we could easily separate if we they could easily separate those out and make their software utilities weeks separate from the OS separate from their UI but they're not no no you're not they're not doing what Google is doing Google is separating it's a experience from the UI and updating everything without updating Android so if Samsung just did the same thing which they're not going to do but if they did all would be a the world would be a better place oh and they could they could do that they could offer all their apps available through the Play Store but only compatible with samsung devices they can do that the technology is yeah yeah yep you know and I guess my problem is not really with the apps my problem is really the UI per se it's like you know i guess i didn't find iOS to be asks you more fectly ugly as I far in touch with honestly you know I don't hide it I never found that with iOS 6 and the previous versions of iOS yeah the stitch leather looked ugly and everything but I don't know the problem with the samsung UI is that it looks like like lollipop kitty it looks like it looks childish I guess that's that's that's my impression of TouchWiz price that's what if it's fisher-price it is and I feel okay so the only thing so we have a great note 3 we like it we're getting it most probably we are I am gonna fight for it definitely i'm gonna call mr. Fisher the livestream ends and our viewers jumps like 100 yeah yeah well I I think we yeah we should definitely be wrapping it up we have a lot of work to do a lot of it at oriole so Michael and Anton are gonna definitely be comparing this phone against the HTC One the galaxy s4 arm and just about every other phone that they have they have like 12 phones in their pack right now um they definitely have a pebble to compare the the galaxy gear so expect all our hands on coverage a lot of editorials coming up soon so far so nobody's getting the note 10.1 um we don't know what to slammed on the Galaxy gear yeah we don't know what to say about the galaxy gear and we are definitely sweet camera yeah we definitely we definitely are getting the we're definitely getting the the Galaxy Note 3 so final thoughts mr. Joe Levi I think it's great I think it's a you know a push forward they showed us a lot of cool things and they also showed us they've got a lot of what a room for improvement yes that's a good one that's ago when mr. Martin um Samsung has officially changed my mind because they actually listened for once I didn't want to know three I didn't care about it i'm happy with my Moto X I'm still happy with the Moto X but i want to know three now which is something I couldn't say an hour and half ago so kudos samsung you actually changed my mind in your favor for the first time probably ever yeah that's us to do it it didn't take to have dancers all it took was fake letter yeah you know honestly because they've made the phone smaller and they've you know they made a display bigger the phone slimmer it's lighter and I get the s-pen do I am I gonna keep the s4 in comparison to the note 3 no I'm getting it up three if I have to choose between them I'd rather stick to the note 3 that's my opinion but it was you can follow mr. Taylor Martin at tas protect mr. Joe Levi at Joe Levi on twitter you can follow me also at hai na underscore to get on Twitter I guess this is it for our live stream thank you very much for joining us we have so much content that will probably not sleep today we're definitely going around everything up at the pocket out daily later on and we are going to have a special edition of the pocket now weekly from Berlin where Michael and Tony are going to be talking about everything and one of us is going to join remotely so stay tuned this week is going to be crazy a lot of stuff to talk about you know especially with all the changes you know apple's event is happening next week we have the microsoft buying Nokia we have so much stuff to talk about on the weekly and yes the forums are definitely load with a lot of questions so we cannot wait to hear your comments on everything that we saw so stay tuned for more thank you very much for watching that is it for today see ya take care bye bye
