it's very marshmallowy week here with new Nexus is from google new chromecast's a new dual screen LG device and we salute El Capitan i am mark burst i never technobuffalo it is saturday october third and this is the buffalo breakdown how's it going everybody so we have so much great new stuff this week so let's get down to it first up one of my absolute favorite brands of all time so knows they announced their refreshed version of their original play five device this week the new model is sporting a slick new look and some really awesome features on both the hardware and the software side the new play five moves from physical buttons to new capacitive sensors on the actual device so you can now swipe on the touch panel to skip forwards or backwards if you want to skip forwards or backwards for the track if the device is in multiple orientations totally okay there's an accelerometer inside it's going to make sure that it always knows which way is up so you're always pushing the button do you expect to be pushing plus true play ensures that your music sounds the way it was intended to by using your mobile device to tune the sonos to the specific settings for the room and the devices placement so true play runs on your mobile device we're going to look a little silly using true play since it requires you to more or less paint your walls with your phone but it should make for a much truer listening experience for those of you running max the newest version of OS 10 double Capitan is out this week it is a free upgrade and it includes more than a few design tweaks there's a brand-new beach ball of death if that's of interest to you it's actually very pretty there's a host of new features as well like split view a much more powerful spotlight that you can use regular conversational English in and very much increased performance you can head to the App Store on your Mac to get it and again it is a free download the LG v10 is official this week the v10 is LG's first device in a new premium line of phones this one is a little bit different though it's rocking a second screen up at the top of the display that is always on and shows you the time date notifications and shortcuts whether it's on the devices on the screen or it is asleep seems like a great idea on paper but in practice it seems like it's going to be a little bit to reach all the way up there for a short cut but we're gonna need to wait until we get our hands on it to be able to know for sure the device is packing a snapdragon 808 16 megapixel camera 2 5 megapixel front facing cameras one regular and one with a wide-angle lens for your grew fees which is what they call group selfies okay a three thousand million power battery and 64 gigs of on-board storage of course expandable via microsd all the way up to 200 gigs and that big beautiful 5.7 inch quad HD display for a ppi of 513 the thing looks like a really really fun device I'm excited to get my hands on it the screen does seem genuinely useful to me of course that's not all LG did this week though they also announced their second generation of their G watch urbane its claim to fame is that it is the very first android wear watch to support cellular frequencies well I'm not sure that's something I want to pay for just yet I'm sure there are folks who will especially those who are interested in living that Dick Tracy audio call on your phone life finally we've got a slew of google news from the press event this week our new nexus devices are finally here yes we saw and heard a lot about them through leaks but the Nexus 5x and 6p are the new flagships from google this year and this might be the year that they got it so so so so right before we dive deep into the two devices let's take a look at what they look like on paper the 5x is rocking a snapdragon 808 22 gigs of ram a 5.2 inch 1080 display for a ppi of 424 a 12 point three megapixel camera with a larger pixel size of 1.5 5 microns that's very important it's a big selling point for them twenty-seven hundred million power battery and a excellent price of 379 the 6p is packing a snapdragon 810 which hopefully the heat issues have been resolved three gigs of ram a 5.5 inch display which is a quad HD display which comes out to a ppi of 5 18 and 32 gigs of on-board storage which is all the way up to 64 gigs and 128 gig options not expandable via microSD and a really nice hefty size 3434 50 milliamp hour battery the LG manufactured 5x is definitely the lower end model and it is the successor to the Nexus 5 from 2013 I adored the Nexus 5 and this one is everything that a nexus 5 was but better it's everything the fans wanted new case new internals same great phone the original Nexus 5 had kind of a hard time keeping up with its ilk in the camera Department but Google assures us that that shouldn't be an issue this time around with a brand new sensor that sits in both the 5x and the 6p which we'll get to in just a second the Huawei built 6p is very much the premium option it's an all-metal body and it yields to a really nice big bright Samsung AMOLED display and they did confirm that it is the most recent generation of Samsung panels around the back it is not nearly as bad as we thought the camera hump is much much smaller than it looked in the original leaks and it is what the Nexus team affectionately calls the visor it's a piece of Gorilla Glass that allows for their laser autofocus to peek through and it also lets the antenna that are inside of the device and the coils for things like NFC be able to get out because they can't do that through the metal the 5x is certainly intended for the budget market but it is no slouch at the claims about the camera are founded this seems to me to be the phone to beat for the budget range though we have yet to put it through its paces of course if the battery life can also keep up with disposing camera improvements I really have to echo our friend mkbhd here when I say that I think the 5x is going to be the first Nexus to really kind of transcend the Nexus brand it really does seem like a phone for everyone sighs build and specs aren't the whole story though there are more differences beyond the bigger and better screen the 6p is going to support 240 frames per second video while the 5x will only support 120 and the 5x is not going to be able to support the smart burst one feature that takes multiple photos and selects the best one they said they just couldn't handle the horsepower of course they both share more than a few things too and not all of them are good they both lack optical image stabilization which means those identical camera sensors are relying on the larger 1.5 micron pixels to be able to take in enough light also because they come with us bc you are going to need to start rioc fitting your home though this was kind of inevitable anyway it was bound to happen this is probably the device that's going to cause you to do it new chromecast's are also shipping right now the new devices are much much smaller the round and they support fast play which is going to prefetch the next episode that you're likely to watch so that it starts instantly with no buffering they also now pack three separate antenna for a strong strong signal and now support 5 gigahertz frequency Wi-Fi networks and it's even going to switch between two point four and five gigahertz Wi-Fi networks intelligently not to mention the actual chromecast app got a fun nominal makeover and you can check out more about the chromecast and the new chromecast app in the video up here last but not least the pixel see is the last big thing that google announced at their event this week it is a four hundred ninety nine dollar device and if you're looking at it right now which I imagine you are you can tell it's a tablet but it's somewhere in between akin to the new iPad pro and the Microsoft Surface you can see there's a keyboard right underneath there it's mostly a chromebook looking pixel build if you're familiar with the chromebook pixel looks beautiful it's a great-looking screen and it is running marshmallow that keyboard is going to run you a separate 149 and this is supposed to be the kind of work horse Android tablet device that Google is going after that keyboard is really one of the coolest things I've seen in a while it attaches to the tablet via very strong magnets and then pivots up at just like you would for a keyboard what's even better is it connects to the tablet via bluetooth but you don't have to worry about charging it because when it's closed and attached to the tablet it's going to charge sucking juice out of the tablet via inductive charging which is so so so so cool we don't know exactly when the pixel is going to be out though Google has said in time for the holidays and that's about all the google news for this week so that means we are wrapping up the breakdown that is the show for the week thank you guys so much for watching it very much appreciate you guys taking the time to do so let me know what you guys think in the comments do you think the pixels he is going to
