yeah well only because you have your your boyband microphone okay as much as I really want to I want you rather say this is everybody say hey take note everybody and know not just about this microphone that is on my face I am using this for the podcast right now so before you get into the comment sections down below you can go in and tell me what you think but we're talking about taking note of the brand new Samsung device the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 is officially here and we do talk about it on the majority of this podcast where you can also see video footage being taken on the note 9 itself we also take out the S Pen and double click on that button in order to make that recording happen so if you're curious as to what the video quality is like on there this might be one good example for you on top of that however we do talk a little bit about Android Pi and wonder if it is just sweet enough for us for our future pixel and other Android devices it's Joshua Vergara what's going on everybody and welcome to the weekly a special video podcast here on location in David Cogan's own apartment so if you're wondering how the unlocker lives well we got a glimpse into it today thank you so much for tuning in and welcome to the weekly brought to you by pocket now and xda-developers well I think I think the best I think the best way to even get started is just saying thank you to that guy to this guy right here yeah number one having a great spot for us to do the learning us his apartment it is at 200 the secret location we're at was the 201 well I was the idiot that arrows to like buzz Marcy Avenue and then going down south I love this area more time I've so hey I need to spend more time and I live here like cuz I'm traveling all time like for everything but like it's like all people our age it's nobody that has a real job what I mean but I was like like they're like creatives they all work in a coffee shop they're all graphic designers whatever else you should come hang out no want to come do you go to Smorgasburg a lot we're here know so s'mores berries like I take your friends to that once a while but like it's honestly super overpriced and it's delicious though a lot of those places actually you could they're around here so if you just go to them on normal time they're actually cheaper than when you go to Smorgasburg my favorite place there's like a premium just for being at Smorgasburg which is kaizen pies pies it's great and that's not expensive there it's more sense of you know what they sell yeah you know what that's actually it that's gonna be the weirdest but also like perfect segue that's gonna be 30 no way where's PP 260 so that's like I can't count way down it's down there yeah it's not so I've been so busy with all this other stuff I haven't time what have you done I did I played with them for like a little bit so how do you feel about where it's going I like it yeah although again I didn't play with very much and my my first vid only thing my video are the gestures in it Oh things beta one that's why you like it yeah tell me more I just I just can't stand full screen gestures like I used the iPhone for a hot minute and I just could not stand using that phone oh but see I got used to that pretty quick with the iPhone that's the thing I got used to it but doesn't mean I liked it no I mean I don't know I don't know I don't think it bothered me I don't think I can get used to it I think it's I don't really I don't know all of my friends who were trying what is he doing yes no I don't mind that I like that my OCD likes to swipe things away like that it's great I don't know what I have to blur there whatever there's one thing alright there's one thing that I like about the fullscreen gestures and it's just a quick way like quick changing between apps is that quick swipe on the bottom ok I can see that being a few pulls in between 1 or 2 which is very common for me I think for most people probably yeah and you go pull one button on there and tell me to flick it like that's pretty much that's pretty much all ever do it it means well um but is there is there no way and again I haven't gotten to use it very much is there no way to put them back ok there's speculation I imagine that there's gotta be an option okay so okay on on Android Pi on the pixel - at least right now yeah you go - it's not the gestures if you install it on pixel - you go into system and then you go to gestures then you turn it on yeah there's speculation that upcoming Google upcoming Android PI devices are just gonna have that at default with no option to change it got it and then I'll give quite a record to do android police broke that story but they also got a clarification yeah I was disord then came back with a clarification and said I never said that it was going to be like the only but default probably default make sense to me because that's the way you get people to try something new yeah as you just force them to I mean what if they give the OP to turn off I'm ok with that I don't care I've had a very extreme I think they will do that because I at least for the first iterations they'll give it a couple of maintenance reviews but somebody gets Android thigh it'll be baked in but till then it's gonna be alright I think oh my god if it's not Android team time I'm East Coast man sorry no this is I got nothing alright so it's like two freakin wafer there's like glued together with chocolate and you bite one end you bite the other end it's a coffee straw and it softens everything in the middle okay what's have to have you have they starting to show up in the US now you go to you know like any superstore Wegmans for me and like I go there and see the British Isles like oh wow Wegmans wide Wegmans it man based out of Rochester Rochester home of the trash plates which I love no-good garbage plate I'm dating well my only my only problem with the reason why I have a problem with the whole full screen jesters thing is because it's going to radically change what we expect out of not forked by skinned versions of Android because this is a system-level thing where you're going to have that level of navigation so fundamentally the way people understand their Samsung's to work the way then they understand their LG's toward it's gonna be different I've been hearing that oneplus has been executing that Pro Tok in terms of people being able to live with it on the oneplus X 6 has that built in it's almost identical isn't it it's the rest of the package really helps out that but you know what I think I mean even if it's a system level thing I think it's probably gonna well unless you you and the sources you're talking about have something better to say but like it'll Samsung will still be able to skin it however they want if they want to leave buttons like they still put the buttons backwards for them they've been putting a backwards forever change on the notes don't you say yeah the first thing I do too is I put the back with the back button on the left where it belongs yeah but like this is all I'm saying like there's nothing stopping them from doing that I would imagine like why wouldn't they be a person there are certain things that PI is bringing to the table that I'm so looking forward to like the smart rotate for so simple so bones have had gyroscopes forever yeah I think you just need to you don't have to freaking pull down the notification shade anymore just right there yeah how did you feel about the name PI yeah I kiss mom's gonna be peppermint cuz the colors when they first showed them like that teaser was like pink and red it looks weird he looked like a cane oh yeah we're like a candy cane peppermints what I show it off this reminds but now apparently it's PI by the way what do you want to see hold on one sec I'm showing off this and then I'll be going away I wanted to go hey hey I wanted to go into the system settings on this thing I am assuming that marki was right because it was just a little too easy are we live yes we're talking about PI okay we're talking about right now without pi PI is here okay I was really I was really disappointed in the Easter Egg for Android pi I think I've seen it cuz I kept going like this and holding and all that nothing was happening okay it's a pinch that's kind of cool so it's kind of psychedelic it's very that is a rare bottle of whiskey that it's hard to find oh no no I'm so happy to find it finally I'm telling you you're gonna like so I'm gonna destroy it on something to destroy it on the rocks Oh neat please he's gonna make fun of me I'm sorry Josh I need your taking a sip of mine just so you can have we're not gonna lose our friendship over that okay so how do you feel about my uh my boy then let him have it yeah very swear he's gonna get up and do dance moves and Brandon was calling me fancy look at this and I welcome you like this hood too we were talking about get more on that later if parking is just the way it was right now of course I'm gonna like yeah that's impressive I really hope you have of our keys I'm hoping there was no parking no sorry the s-pen by the way has low-energy Bluetooth that allows you to the phone turning off your musics is a raunchy song - this case should be for you man like seriously but I don't like the case in general well I'm gonna use it in the reviews of their why did I press play is there a play button no if you if that controls media if you push that button when music is up it'll turn on and off oh ok as demonstrated accidentally by Josh we talked about Android PI for a little bit but I did want to get your thoughts on it I am never gonna like full screen gestures so this might be problem with it so I guess and I'm I I can't quote anybody on this but I heard of the philosophy for the gestures was to not make it difficult for people to switch to Android just the whole concept of they come from another operating system where there's either just one button which you see there's just one button now or now there's gesture so they're giving you a little of both I can't quote anybody on this so I just wish to the gestures would have been the same we're here if you swipe up what you get is the multitasking pane yeah pretty much I do like this like quick switching back that's the one thing I like which is which is something that I love from the iPhone 10 by the way I love that B swipe left or right yeah to move from one app today when I use the iPhone 10 I like for me that is just so logical just so practical but then I'm having a hard time remembering that you have to press this and not swipe up to go home you know it's it's I've only been using it for two days yeah I was really concerned at the beginning by the way this is a pixel to excel and this is second batch so this is not the one with the bad screen but I have been noticing that the brightness automatic brightness is taking the screen all the way to the top so like on the first day battery life was excruciating ly bad but then we have AI aka machine learning because that's the correct name and now even you like I've had great battery life on the second two days so it was just like the first day was really bad and then following up it was great so I don't know I gestures are a thing like I don't like the gestures on the 1 plus 6 for example because there is no gesture for the Google assistant and I actually use it constantly what's the gesture for Google assistant if you're doing this you still have the squeeze the phone and you get it yeah whereas on the 1 plus 6 you have 0 options it's only call on the Google assistant okay which is trash if you're in the city it's just not gonna you know okay that makes sense it's gonna be the worse okay so it's literally the one button that you flick I'm always gonna call it that like yeah because that's all it really is flicking one thing I guess I'm a little annoyed at the minimalism companies bring with the exception of LG where it's no button for the assistant yeah I prefer a button over the squeeze gesture because I'm constantly squeezing the phone accidentally yeah you know so it's yeah I have a strong grip okay that's fine even when even when I'm taking the phone out of my pocket sometimes it triggers and it's kind of annoying when that happens yeah but I totally get you there yeah top tip if you do get the note 9 and you have the S Pen which is Bluetooth enabled you hold the button to go straight to the camera I already have it framed up we just lock the focus on there you go and then it's a double tap to record I have it on silent actually you would normally hear like a boom so the note 9 this is the story for me like this is all that I really loved the most about it yeah for the first time ever yeah I like Alex you know my first Galaxy Note was the note 3 okay and my favorite note this I'm still on verdicts out on this though but my favorite note will always be the floor huh cuz that that was my least favorite note what well I had the Note edge not the note 4 and it was buggy it felt great in the hand though my favorite note would always be because he hasn't melted on my side my favorite no will always be the note 3 because that was the first time where they they made the tip feel like a sharpie on the screen Oh true so my I had my first one was - no - I love the no.3 because then acid the Snapdragon 800 we had great battery life for me it was the best of all and it just it felt like a sharpie the software was crap back then back then it was the word Samsung software up until up until the 7th mr7 series it got a lot better ok much otherwise I would have immediately ripped it off and put on a custom ROM and what was your favorite I don't know honestly I I know you never used the new I used a bunch of notes I can't remember which ones though cuz I um and I again I also like loaded custom roms on them all the time back then um so to speak of the software would be very different than what you're talking about but I like these new ones like the no date the note 9 like I mean I really like this note already I just I just design-wise like I don't know I think this is not a controversial statement but like I actually until the crap happened yeah I had no issues with my note 7 by the way and in my case no sadly I made the mistake of well let's not call it a mistake because then people will cause out in the comments wasn't that box oh so here's the thing I know the thing is if you remember I was literally the first person to unbox it I will not reveal the source of how I got my phone there I just loved that it was like our first-ever viral video was that not the unboxing but like the 24 hours video where I went through all the features that it had so I really liked the note 7 because it was the to go from the note 7 to the node 8 was like a huge contrast size-wise yeah like the node 8 was it still is I consider just too uncomfortable it was you know I in my after the buzz video I call it literally this reminds me of a muscle car it's bragging rights it's a beautiful piece of machinery but the problem is you won't be able to drive it at its speed you won't be able to take advantage of it and it's just too large for a sports car and so that was a thing like for me it was just so cumbersome to use the no date and it's no BS like I literally tore a pair of jeans just because like just the design of it you just been working your quads Abdul much and the oddity is this the note 9 is literally the same size of the notate what is which I'm actually happy about because the note I like the size of this phone well the note 8 is the limit I also have some quads than use so honestly which I have here yeah is almost the same size it's just what makes it different is the curves I feel that it's a more comfortable phone to handle and I love that leather case by the way this is nice and all and there's a card slot I know yeah the the note 7 to me was ok 7 seems to be the the magic number for a lot of these companies cuz if you ask me the most solid phones the note the most solid phones in a lot of different lines are 7 like right now we have the g7 and everyone agrees it's a pretty solid device it's great on the iPhone 7 is widely regarded as a great phone through and through and to me Samsung's best phone ever is the S I agree with you but the smaller s7 to me was the most accessible it was the most widely easily used and it was solid I take the SAT over there we all disagree if I would have to say what has been my favorite Samsung Galaxy ever it would be the s9 + okay okay because I feel that's more in line with what I think they worked on are the newer ones so wow I like like because for me what killed it was literally the placement of the fingerprint scanner I have large hands and it was always that pain and then the iris scanner that whole intelligent scan was never really what I would call reliable it takes a while right and so I have like mine never works it for like the this has been the first phone to have good battery life for me the first galaxy yeah like every other galaxy which one this so obviously I'm by the way for everybody responding to my Instagram Q&A and all your questions about battery life maybe just let me use the phone for 24 hours and I saw you - how's the battery right now seems good I had an average there were I would say like 150 questions I would say that at least 80 of those were how's the battery okay this is what I this is what a note is about and for this what I said - in your video was it like this is the first time it was another first time it's last year we didn't get a note with a proper sized battery for reasons that we all know right yes because of the battery issues they had this time we did all right this is like a proper so like I'm curious about it - like I'm of course I'd be doing a battery test but as I was saying you're like gosh it's the biggest question is we've we've already if you guys have not watched josh's video about asking every all of us in 20 seconds what we think about the the note 9 please do so Mike dude how do you do those transitions from one first is like the coolest thing plug definitely go watch it what's funny is I should use that more often but it just it just felt like the 20 every 20 seconds video has those winds just became that's why I do it digitally like you do it with the in camera yeah you do yeah so it's the it's the coolest thing but what I said in that video is I've used the Galaxy s8 active I've used an s7 active we're not we're used to four thousand milliamp hours right in galaxies and the problem is the software like in the case of the no date I could leave the phone and in the SAS eight active which I use for running every now and then I will leave it on the table without any use and it will lose twenty percent of battery just during the morning no reason of what so right right just that it's it's connecting to the network yes I don't know what it's doing but it's yeah I had it on 4k sixty so it stopped I think it was what's the limit the 10-minute limit let me try no way is it Tim it's five five minutes at least less allow me to change yeah it's review coverage anyways yeah you're that way you get a you get an idea of what the video is like on this try super slow-mo right now I'm just gonna go to food prepared this is the this is by far my favorite thing ever cuz honestly I've had a lot of Chinese phones where they have the remotes and the other shudders Oh PO did it all remember I still have that in three by the way really I do oh man what's it like mint condition I have it here if you want it maybe oh well if you have the remote with it - yeah oh great I'll do it could be like a flashback huh no do you want to do a throwback go forever and I would love to by all means it's in mint condition you see the thing is back then because it is an item that is uh so obviously an accessory we kind of didn't paid that much mind no you know like it's cool that you can double tap it and then the camera flips over you get the the motor and all that but this this is like this is the level of genius that we give tech companies credit for hmm and I'm just so happy that they did it with this but you know I call it genius that is the same size S Pen as the last like last year is pretty much yeah I don't notice any differences in size I want people to be able to buy this pen with their note eights and get the same features I don't know if that would be possible because it's technically that would be a problem is wrong yeah I would I would love to do that video but technically I think it's it is yeah we need some software a curry to do it aren't you the right person for that yeah I'm yes Samsung definitely is gonna block that as much as a humanly can I guess it's one of the features that they want for you to upgrade to that and you know the other thing is like okay this button makes me not hate that button the button oh my god things I don't like about this phone have you noticed the power button was was moved up a little bit ya know in the fingerprint I don't know where in that closet is okay oh you know you and it makes sense actually you're right because the Bigsby button I think is where used to be yeah used to be level with that yeah yeah and so why did they make it alright that's it is just it's just slightly uncomfortable not a good reason because like the iPhone 8 plus and iPhone 7 plus are like I'm like dear Jonathan Ive I know your hands aren't bigger than mine dude like like they're you did not need to just blow up the iPhone 7 could you please just move the button to a logical position please yeah I agree and I think sympathizes just a little further down you know what they what they should have done then is you should be able to switch the power and Bixby buttons yeah that would be cool now is I constantly push this big P button because it is right where my thumb goes which obviously they plan but then you don't but like I want fault to uh stupid big B's there every time I open my phone well thing is already ready to do things so I don't need him to do hi David waking the device don't you default to the hard pressing the home button I do so give me your give me your day one impressions right now let me face before beauty true no arguments no I like it a lot I think I mean but it has the same things that I liked about the s night plus in the s9 like it's the design like some that attention to detail I think this is more of a refined product right compared to say like the note 7 being like a big change you know like this is this is them kind of like honing in on what makes this phone good and like putting no finger for instance you're in the right place kind of hide it is yeah it is I mean because it's a very tall phone yeah if we're honest and the same thing for the power button I think is that that's also kind of weird but like whatever it's cool I would like to see the battery life but so far it's been doing pretty well I love this little like that you don't have this by lopen I am sorry I am going to talk to our contacts so hard to get a black phone with the yellow wait a second so I noticed you know who as I was uh Ricky yeah Ricky doesn't like Ricky has everybody from the year of the black pen know yes but everybody from the euros guy from the European team they all receive black units okay like they thank you Samsung Samsung for giving us the blue finally giving us I I wouldn't have cared if they gave me the lab even lavender silver silver I would have knocked oh my god that copper I want the cars no it's I don't think it's here in the US yet you know the announced it is one of the colors but I don't think it's it's the same thing it's only this one has the yellow one but for me that was my favorite color honestly what the copper yeah it was one again I love that this has a different color like it's that it's that attention detail that refinement thing I'm talking about like they did something fun with the design because they know that the rest of this is all right it's just easier for you to find like like yeah you'll never lose it how do you call those a little notebooks molesky how do you pronounce most small skin I've heard most kind also sure okay but I've seen I've seen them in that sort of like copper color but I've never seen one in this color or stuff like that oh those yeah I'm sure yeah like for me my first impression for this phone is I really like it I wish I could use it without a case because this is too large to be used with a case sounds like sounds like you need a pops I never know that's the last thing you need I know it's ridiculous looks like if it came from Bali or something like where'd you get this it's called a chocolate called a chakra my friend alright hello bugs on the quick s-pen note that Charlie don't just jump in on um they did say that you can buy s-pen separately so if I if I were to get a black phone it's very possible I can get the only thing is how do you pair them that's what I was saying that's the question that also makes me wonder about the whole know date well last night when I was with you can the question is how yeah right last night when we were at 8:37 would David Emmel I we we swapped pens and tried to do the Bluetooth function yeah but it just I was like when your own pen is that I when I was at the other side of the balcony and I press the button and his phone went off and it was kinda funny yeah you have 30 30 feet yeah that is significant yeah so I don't know what the pairing process is we thought it would be like the switch it's holding down on the button putting it in like there's because you know what I've noticed actually when this phone first if you turn on airplane mode and you turn back off there's a little pen symbol that shows up in the status bar yeah blinks for a little bit and then disappears as if like it's pairing or connecting back to the pen huh so there's it's connected via bluetooth like any other Bluetooth accessory they just so I managed it's gonna be wet apparent like there has to be I don't know if our contacts will be able to swap my unit but if anything I'll probably skin the hell out of this to make it black and then by the yellow think it's a cool I think Ricky wanted the lavender one what is the thing I you could swap Ricky you would totally swap that I'm happy to have this because with the s9 Plus this is the listen it's just the reason why I don't care what color it is so long as it's not a dollar yeah is like I totally don't mind after the review period the problem is trying to film yeah that huge black yeah it's just like trying to film on the mirror and like for example in the case of the pixel there's no problem because it's matte yeah well you know what else Ricky's I saw his and we actually compared the back of our phones ours actually has like a little diffusion to it like if you look at your reflection in it this is weird I know but whatever if you look at your reflection video problems you leave your reflection in the back of the phone it's actually like you'll see like a couple of different versions of yourself it's like kind of like yeah a couple of images like kind of mesh together if you leave the black one it's straight up a mirror like you just see yourself clear again for the same as you I'm like oh please cool yeah yeah I would I would take the copper color any day for me that was my favorite I also like that it's different it's it's not a color that a lot of phones come now only the may 10 program right yeah yeah did either of you not give your day one impressions it wasn't you on me I think I did it already go yeah um I like it I I have fallen in love with devices like the 1 plus 6 it's the first ever one Plus that I say wow I love that phone I in Barren like watch all my reviews like in the past I would always be like for the price yeah buy it right now you're like no no it's just oh my god it's such a good phone and in that red color with colors today by that red color is sick so Wow for me to stop using that phone is just it's really difficult but I do have been a note user like for years my android phone was always a note yeah but I was just so disappointed on cases like the note 5 where the battery life was just terrible man and so if they figure out the battery I could totally give it a second shot I will be doing a battery test very soon good good good yeah like for me that said like what I care about mostly in phones is definitely camera which we have here yeah and was definitely definitely battery life man I mean I I really like I I don't know if it's called if what I have is anxiety or what is it but I do suffer battery and anxiety yeah like for me most people do if we're honest like for me once I hit once the phone hits 50% I'm already like crap yeah shoot I need to find an outlet I'm not gonna lie I'm carrying a backpack just because it's a battery pack though for me those things are annoying if I can avoid that hmm that'll be my phone yeah and it's funny cuz like I think that's the level we're at right now like a lot of phones have power they have this they have that it's the simple things that now we're more focused on like I just want the damn thing to last and I would like you know a good camera they're still they're still Achilles heels though because I've been using this as my vlogging Camel day mm-hmm I think I'm at like 30% right now battery yeah okay I'll do a screen on time looking at it after this but yeah there's some obvious things that will bog it down yeah but like most people are not vlogging all day on it yeah and in in 4k 60x identity oh using the slow-mo even or the air like that so if you think about it you've got your s9 plus you could use that instead actually don't have one I'm happy to have a Samsung device again I think that's my number one thing right you don't have it anymore not after you remind me yeah I've been on the 1 plus 6 and my pixel pixel was my the one that I was allowed to keep I was happy to have the pixel because that thing has been great what I'm really looking forward to how that's going to stack up to this so she won't the remote the remote school but this is the same module as the s9 + yeah pretty much Jenica yeah it is and with that in mind the s9 plus it does a great job with the vlog yeah all I need is a moment case personally yeah thanks I'm sure will come soon oh yeah we met the moment guys at unpacked and I wish I hit them up after really a couple of them were there yeah and I talked to them again to my card and thank you yeah I talked to them in a while and what's funny is like they're so they're so in the current generation of like like business acumen because they're like oh yeah we have cards but here's our Twitter handles I do Liam like but I have a car yeah I mean it's nice like this but I still used that I am terrible at it no I was trying to bring them I grab I put them in my wallet and then I remember three months down the road that they're there see I have I have a scan that is so bad I have a scan snap and I'm making it a habit that whenever there's something in my wallet it has to be scanned so no matter what it is that habit but in any case they they are making the case for of the note 9 and they did invite me to come and shoot with them during sunset last night but there's no time to go I think they had a prototype case I know we got to a 37 a bit late by the way is anybody who doesn't know Samsung 87 is their flagship store here it is cool you should go do that moonwalk thing I still haven't done it but it was funny it looks like what's the best way to put it cuz don't they have did you stop the bun GVR yeah yeah that's what it is is that what you're talking about okay yeah yeah Jules did it do you get immersed enough in the VR with that or so Adams Alain got all rigged up like him straps everywhere across his body and it was and he added the suit too he had the helmet with the gear VR and it was last nine plus and then he was led on to another rig which they use I think at the NASA facilities there's something like that but because of the atrium which is three stories high they're able to take the most advantage of that space take the moat and the pulleys are all the way up there and I don't know I felt like he was able to because has the most impressive airspace move like he could be on Space Jam okay I'm gonna invite him do so this weekend he's gonna come down this weekend nice NATO well I think a good way of capping the last 5-10 minutes and this would be I made it I made a point in a number of people's round up videos that and I think I was it was probably one of you guys I put this idea in my head this is the phone that is meant to tide us over until the as ten simply put like there are some great things that they put into it obviously they put some thought into it but this is definitely not gonna be the evolutionary phone that the iPhone 10 was which is which is an easy thing to say but what are you looking forward to then in an s10 in the next iteration or anything like that because if this is gonna be what we have for now then what does I mean for our next one better camera what would you add to that camera though better so David David we were in Barcelona with when the s9 when the s9 was long and for it was like really impressive when when he when you pointed out how it did a terrible job with moving subjects yeah so the biggest problem is we're making this drop in aperture drop in aperture that's not necessarily a great a great thing like for me I still consider the camera on the note 5 and the s6 to be the best where F 1.8 was like that sweet spot where you didn't get too many highlights in low-light like it didn't blow up the highlights and and just it provides a visually pleasing photo up until you throw it into a computer and you notice that just the whites are just too white things like that and so I remember that I would I would even be able to capture the Crescent Moon on in the case of the note 5 the problem was that it was slow and also if anything I would continue doing like for example will always doing always not trying to fight the whole aperture fight they're not trying to do that they're just trying to work on just blending their software with their hardware and just they want a good photo and it's not bragging rights over what aperture there is so for me Samsung has nailed a ton of essentials when it comes to photography but definitely moving subjects in low-light well but that's a software thing too right like they could have that high aperture or fast aperture but then they need to adjust the ISO and like all the other components exactly it's a photo and it just doesn't it doesn't work that well when things start moving because it's not the it puts the shutter speed to slow it is and so that's what causes the blur but you know some a better version of that I don't I don't mind the low aperture or fast aperture but um but like the software itself need to take a better photo you know I mean like it's ain't it's like with pixel right like doesn't have the I'm sure but the software is amazing yeah doesn't matter like it always takes it could vote exactly and like into your point of like Huawei that night mode is incredible and I'm surprised that nobody has done that yet knowing that that exists because when I did a video on it it was just like just I just explained night mode and like how it works and like the sensor or size and that's nothing to the size of the sensor in the the p20 Pro versus like all these are the photos Mike is insane like yeah their software's not great but they're being kept like up by their hardware and that night oh yeah is that it software I do agree like there's plenty look forward to is what I think I'm saying it's like camera wise I just can't like I don't have an image in my head of what that would look like you know because I'm hoping that it looks radically different like for me it's you mean like design-wise oh just just just in that particular sense yes but I mean wow he's really tabbed as far as camera goes to your point well I always really tapped into what I think should be the future of smart phone photography because what all of the companies have been doing up until this point is trying to emulate a real camera using what bits they have yeah one in when it's on the flip side Huawei is like oh well we have like a billion sensors and a phone let's use them all to the advantage I think that was smart we're just one larger simply get us closer to the proper sensor size from that camera a mixture of that would be that would be M reto saying yeah I mean obviously expensive and it could take a while but like whatever like these cameras are cheaper than these phones some of them right look we're out there they're comparable they're saying that have larger sensor sizes so the sensor can't be that excitin oh I don't know anything about manufacturing of phones but like I'm just assuming that like it can't be that hard to do for me it would be well we have that Sony 48 megapixel sensor it now exists obviously Samsung is one of the biggest customers yep obviously Samsung is obviously gonna have a large hurdle because obviously Apple pretty much grabs all the supply that Sony produces pretty much which LG all you know LG also deals with the same problem and so when Samsung ends up being able to grab anything like they'd have to end up making a blend between some phones have their ISO cell sensor others have their the Sony sensor you can't really tell the difference now where did that go that term ISO so yeah that's the first time I've heard in years yeah but it's there no it's there like in in the in the case of the s7 it was there yeah he was highly mentioned in the case of the 8 side oh I don't remember honestly but the again the technology is gonna be there with that 48 megapixel camera right let's I have really hoping those pixels please I am really hoping because ok one of the things that we've learned and I think this trip that we did in the this euro trip which is awesome that we were all there was honestly just the advantage just the advantage of a larger sensor like you were pointing out the shallow depth-of-field you really do not know okay you don't need a secondary sensor yeah so because we're seeing this from the so where the rumors are that it's just gonna be one sensor I'm honestly wondering if that's what Google's gonna do if it's that they're gonna pull in that 48 megapixel sensor oh wait hi oh yeah and if it's gonna be that they're gonna pull in that 48 megapixel sensor and because of that they already get natural bokeh from the camera yeah they won't need any software gimmicks or anything like that well we got our food some of it ooh okay we're not gonna lose our friendship I'm not gonna make you sound good so your name Jelani good nice so this is the Galaxy Note 9 okay what do you think straight up the best thing yes oh the phone well I have an iPhone 7 plus I hope it's large I'll tell you right now I hate the iPhone 7 plus and things the worst iPhone to ever come out I've had so many issues the worst okay with ATT I thought yeah it was it was the the service is bad the battery life is bad my microphones have crashed out so I've literally got seven this is my seventh replacement of the same phone so yeah but I'm an apple person but no I I do enjoy this the Samsung phones that I think their build quality is really good this phone feels nice and the screen the best I think yeah they are as far as like the features I was seeing that they like upgraded bigsby or whatever because they have the new the new speaker or whatever but I like the phone I think big suite has a lot to learn I think that's the problem what makes me is that you see how the speaker looked yeah it looks it's pretty big it looks big I don't know a lien man I think Bixby has a lot to learn I think big speech needs to be a little smarter but I think that like I kind of like how Samsung's like still pushing it there oh yeah we're gonna give up on it because I think competi competition is good I think series horrible I think Google assistants great so yeah this is the best honestly but I just hate that that thing has legs man yeah it's the dumbest looking speaks have you seen any like old like really old sixties or seventies I don't know if it's Braun or what company which is leader Rams like he is one of the most famous designers ever I but I'm this is just me talking BS I'm not exactly sure but it mimics like this blend of the past and the future I agree with the bottom is the past the top is the future mm-hm and then it looks like the movie alien man like the video montage yeah they used to announce it was so epic and then once the camera panned down and those legs appeared I was like ya know it's like this tall so it's made to sit on the floor and you can maybe look on that table no dude that thing is large like it was shocking I don't know if it's real or not I don't think a company can lie about that they had 160 of these yes at the event and like we were literally sitting in like it sounded good it sounded really good you know what the one they played the the one that was in that little demo area yeah it sounded I hate to say this because I like bass but it sounded bass heavy honestly really okay so the whole thing is like from what I saw is the design is weird it looks like it supposed to be like you're literally a furniture piece add it to your Leo what version I think like they they want knock out like the competition as far as like Samsung's known the kind of like oh this is what people are doing what we're gonna try to do it better Harman Kardon man it wonderful sound quality and like that's what I'm saying they're focused on Bigsby and things like that and so I think it's smart that they're doing that yeah but also I you know I know what Samsung they're first generation of stuff isn't always the best but then as they upgrade it it kind of gets better sure because like even with this phone it's the same design since the 7 but it doesn't explode this time and has better features so I think like oh yeah no problem yeah I I think the phone is sick though I saw that with the announcement it looks like I like when phone manufacturers like refine their products versus like just like putting out some so much new stuff oh sure that doesn't necessarily make sense sometime yeah exactly and I think it's like one of the things where like the consumers the average consumers people like don't care about necessarily they don't always get the newest the latest and greatest that usually you're just like I want a phone that works well and looks nice okay okay so let me ask you mmm-hmm but this has to be like you know assume you're not sitting here with us okay what would you change from that phone for you to be willing to buy it it could be anything for the Samsung phones yeah I'll tell you the main issue I have a samsung phones is I don't like was it TouchWiz or there you just call it Samsung yeah I don't I don't like it I I wish that I could just like it comes pre-installed with like just like straight Android like or you can choose yeah I don't I don't like that I don't like how Samsung has a lot of like carrier bloatware and stuff like that on their phones the main thing the only thing that keeps me on iPhone and all I know honesty is I'm in the ecosystem yeah and then also I do a good job I really like iMessage so if you know what a lot of people just say that I messaged weren't you saying that one time honestly no like for me it's not iMessage it's just for me like I meet a macbook pro for video and i've all the ecosystem is and i've never experienced that because i've never had more than one Apple product at one time but that's the problem the problem is that I very early and it was a mistake because the moment I you know we filmed a lot of b-roll using an iPhone 10 plus yeah an iPhone 10 yesterday and oh my god like it's like brandon was like but why do you like using that Mac and I'm like let me show you and so I just opened my MacBook Pro we filmed a lot of b-roll with the phone simply bap bap bap air drop boom they're in the computer already he's like what i'm sorry thats it yeah i can just go straight through and edit my that's it you know and so it's it's those things and then when you grab Final Cut I'm like listen for all the video editing purists I do understand Premiere Pro is a far more complete product the thing about it is we're youtubers we're not Francis Ford Coppola so here's the thing like Final Cut is so practical yeah so simple like I learned how to use video editing software through Final Cut then when I was 18 I actually got a job at Apple I worked at the Apple Store and their software for free so I've had Final Cut for free for the last eight years ago now and that's the pin I paid for it once mm-hmm 30 bucks yeah but I think it's 50 because I have the Creative Suite of everything okay yeah because of you you do the 30 if it's I think two apps yeah and you can only pick two yeah and I can't just pick two abs come on so going back to your question what would I change about that phone what would I improve for the s10 okay what do I like about the iPhone 10 it's literally the fact that you have a large phone on a small form-factor you know showing it to Jules the other day where it was like I can actually use the iPhone 10 with one hand and my biggest problem with the s9 + why do I grab the s9 + instead of the s9 because of battery life because it's a larger battery it's just physics but in the case of the iPhone 10 it's just it's a small phone it's a large phone and a small form-factor if Apple the sorry if Samson can get rid of the bezels fully come up with something creative and you know instead of being that because the problem Samsung is this they have reduced the bezels but instead of get a smaller film they give me a larger screen yeah I don't need a larger screen you know let's just kept a limit on it you know I don't need a six point four inch display why don't we just leave it at six inches and give me a phone that I can handle with great battery life that for me which is what Huawei's been doing to a certain degree to agree yeah yeah but everybody has their thing because yeah they make their bigger screen they keep making bigger screens and an Apple keep trying to make their phones thinner and at the end of the day we just want a bigger battery and we want less like less body and like just we want everything that everyone's doing just in one phone so that exactly I think a mixture of really what all of you guys have said because I understand where David is coming from with the key with the camera talk because there's so much that other competitors are doing that really is just killing the wrong way Samsung's doing great don't get me wrong it's just that if you're able to blend everything together computational with AI well AI but using the sensors in the phone like Huawei does I think that'd be amazing I agree with you though I've liked the note 8 is too tall what do you got put a pop saw get on the phone everyone makes fun of me but I'm like you know what I have better use of usin oil everybody make fun of them yeah you can make fun me for everything I'm wearing a my great concert yeah we were just about like who's gonna choreograph like who's first like the camera I wanted to ask you do you like Samsung's cameras there's nothing yes nothing particularly wrong with the camera it's just that other people have been really going for okay so I do you know outside of delivering food I do photography and I don't like how Samsung's phone day I feel like they like boost the saturation too much and I don't like that I don't think it looks good on the photos and the reason why I like the iPhone photos is even though there's better cameras I think I think iPhones don't process it too much where it's it's it gives me like yeah so I can edit and make the photos feel the way I want them to feel just like I feel like Samsung cigs great photos for people that don't take photos but if I take photos and I want to like edit and tweak them it's like I have to like reduce saturation on a photo just taking straight for all from the bone interesting oh the s-pen thing is sick oh yeah that is really sick and like all the things you can do with it that's super cool like my parents actually used to be dedicated Samsung people like my stepdad had the note and my mom had like the s-series they actually like two years ago switched over and got pixels because they like straight into that pixel to excel it's a lateral move that's not that bad yes loves the pixel do you really think that do you really yeah that it's like for me like the pixel to excel looks like no Android phone and honestly like it doesn't even feel like any Android phone it said for me what things do I like about the pixel to excel well we're about to do a video it's a collab with somebody really special it's gonna be really awesome okay oh and okay this is a large phone that is so light it's just so light like the way it was designed I don't know what it is the weight distribution I don't care yeah but the problem with going all glasses glasses heavier I'm certain degree it I don't know what it is but it's just this phone is like if it was meant to be large is that new I've dropped it a few times it looks brand new that's why I was like you know my my little brother has one of these and then my parents have it and the meemers eye switches the updates they were like I'm tired of waiting a year and a half to get the latest software yeah from Android takes forever yeah I know it's the worst that's what my parents left bus doors but anyways you want to follow people follow you on it yeah yeah yeah okay so I'm photographer you can follow me at at Andy Rockhampton so it's a and D Y ro ck hnp but yeah I take photos I've shot for a lot of different places billboard vice Wilhemina a lot of

opportunity not it you know to have somebody you know who watched unpacked who was you know part no he knew his stuff right with you a right person to deliver the food yeah right when you open the door and you saw the light I saw it's like it's funny there's so many cuts in this particular podcast but they all lead to greater things hopefully they don't lead to a parking ticket I'll figure it we go check in a second everybody's on their way is why selling a rabbit oh yeah well on that note we're gonna go ahead and call it on this edition of the weekly this particular one is a special video
