are you prepared to make a deal didn't think so now this is going to be different its smartphone season you know there's a lot of people in the comments what is this smartphone therapy well kind of because this time of year is smartphone time of year there are so many new smartphones that really deserve to have some coverage they deserve to be inspected this is one of those smartphones this is the hydrogen phone no red media machine a smartphone from a company that's never made a smartphone a smartphone from a camera company this dilute immersion I ordered the titanium version that was not ready yet so they sent this one in its absence and they're still gonna send the titanium version anyhow who's complaining you get an extra phone but this is so different this is so weird this phone this thing is like a weapon this is insane I mean it feels like one of their cameras I guess I should have suspected that it is metal it feels like a weapon it probably could be a weapon in fact it's got this crazy grip you are not dropping this thing accidentally it looks like one of those power switch fingerprint scanner combos over there of course this is their camera unit on the rear of the device you see these pins down here this device is eventually gonna be modular kind of like red cameras I guess our camera company's gonna have to become phone companies I don't know obviously red things so this thing has carbon-fiber metal its aggressive this thing feels even less like a phone and even more like a camera just the materials in use alone there is a headphone jack microSD as I suggested before red branded USB type-c cable they put some technology in here some kind of a holographic display from what I've heard it doesn't quite show up on camera Wow hydrogen oh oh the display is already the display is already doing it it's very bizarre Jack probably won't be able to see it it just looks like a regular image to you yeah Jack can't see it kind of 3d but not very far it's not like out here it's just like a little bit away from the display it's super hard to what do I even I mean I can't imagine carrying this thing imagine pulling that out you're on a date you're like yeah consider it done I'm on my way what did he say to you I'm on my way this device is definitely not concerned with screen to body ratio it's super boxy large bezels it works pretty well the fingerprint scanner works it's not the latest Android but it's Android you know where everything is they didn't mess with it too much which is a good thing I'm assuming this is gonna be 3d when I click this right now which it is Oh God they just see an image right now but I'm seeing this I'm having like a roller coaster in VR moments right now that's just flat to you but you can see how there's like a grid going on okay I fed my eyes are tuning into it now a bit more you might have to be right in front of it well cut getting your will he's always begging me he says I got Lou you gotta let me in the video he's always screaming enough is enough already it's my turn it's my turn now not at all enough sit up already it's my turn now look it's 3d so hit play I don't know I can definitely see the 3d effect I don't know if it's really useful on the phone mmm kind of novelty but it's it's kind of cool technology I kind of dig it I think it's kind of like the 3ds yeah that's what I do not like the 3d effect yeah that's that's the kind of vibe I was getting is 3d the thing that people what happened on TVs as well the one place where people remain into it is in the movie theater it's because it's so immersive Fred you got the big screen you have the big sound are you doing that no I don't like that at all because I have to wear another pair of glasses double glasses is the worst double glass yeah I'm not really down with that are you doing that Jack you go into the movie theater you'll put the glasses on you have a seat you're immersed that's you that's you the TVs no one's buying 3d TVs obviously it just never really took off yeah it's definitely not a myself the one reason I could see red possibly being interested in it because they got that cinema background yeah so maybe somehow we make those cameras so therefore this becomes the future camera then this is gonna have to be capable or encourage 3d as well maybe that's the angle yeah red cinema yeah just because we could Haley do Haley who ladies and gentlemen it's who time this product is really a whole conversation about what's happening to cameras this is a camera company recognizing what's happening and envisioning a future for themselves within that environment I know they know that this device is not gonna replace their production stuff on a set anytime soon but somebody over there is envisioning a future in which something far more portable may be capable of some of the production stuff they are doing right now I mean it's nice for them to Behrman it's really bold ambition is good ambition is good you would expect that the camera would be a huge did you hear that sound of that not good everything is very blurry I mean if you're carrying a beast like this though what does it need to be doing for you there's no count you're not counting individual hairs there's it's blur the hardware feels finished I'll give them that it's solid I feel like this is a thing that's gonna have to grow over time the modularity the software sort of buying into a bit of a beta that's fine like it doesn't seem clear my thoughts exactly I mean if you're gonna put out a phone like this that's an absolute tank with giant bezels it has that like the speaker's half can't be like that are we talking about 3d and 2018 if I'm red I'm like let's chill on a 4d thing let's make a smartphone that's durable rugged maybe you can add extra lenses to it get the best sensor you possibly can and then just have great speakers and multimedia functionality I don't think the idea of red having a smartphone is so outlandish I'm just saying if you're gonna do it like let's do it mm-hmm like let's do it how much is this 1,300 it's about the future you're kind of investing in the future you're banking a lot on this modular type of setup that's happy to invest in a company like red for the eventual product that will improve upon this one here take our money we like the idea we'll put up with some shortcomings in order to invest in the eventualities in order to invest in the future is software gonna win the smartphone camera wars or is Hardware of course you're always gonna need the hardware are we gonna really be clicking lenses on two phones in the future or is software gonna make those choices for us I don't know that's a good question what do you guys think you tell us there it is red hydrogen one I love seeing players in the smartphone game and I love seeing different things and I appreciate ambition always so let's see what happens with red hopefully there's space for a whacky product like this one
