00:00:06.100 --> 00:00:07.900
Hey everyone. Welcome back to Jane Tech.

00:00:07.900 --> 00:00:10.400
I'm Julia Beauchamp and I'm here with Computer World executive

00:00:10.400 --> 00:00:13.300
editor can Mingus as well as macworld executive editor.

00:00:13.300 --> 00:00:15.800
Michael Symon. We are alive on YouTube,

00:00:15.800 --> 00:00:17.800
as well as on the computer World LinkedIn page.

00:00:17.800 --> 00:00:20.000
So, if you have any questions or comments while we're discussing,

00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:22.600
please, do you leave them in a live chat or the comments.

00:00:22.600 --> 00:00:25.200
And we'll do our very best to get back to you while we are

00:00:25.200 --> 00:00:30.500
actually live. So moving then on to the topic of the day,

00:00:30.500 --> 00:00:34.300
so I wanted to talk to David about like the future of mobile

00:00:34.300 --> 00:00:36.200
mobile Trends. It kind of seems like,

00:00:36.200 --> 00:00:39.700
first of all, everyone's kind of doing the same thing and there's

00:00:39.700 --> 00:00:42.700
kind of a lot of gimmicks going on just yesterday.

00:00:42.700 --> 00:00:46.300
Microsoft launched were announced rather, doesn't it doesn't

00:00:46.300 --> 00:00:47.600
really is quite yet.

00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:49.700
There might be a Surface 2 of 2,

00:00:49.700 --> 00:00:50.900
which is a folding phone.

00:00:50.900 --> 00:00:53.000
It's really not the first building phone ever released,

00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:55.400
but I thought it was interesting would be interesting

00:00:55.400 --> 00:00:56.800
to talk about, you know, where is,

00:00:56.800 --> 00:00:59.300
where is the mobile industry going?

00:00:59.300 --> 00:01:02.600
Is this is this, it just a gimmick is in,

00:01:02.600 --> 00:01:03.700
like, 5 years.

00:01:03.700 --> 00:01:05.900
Are we all going to laugh about folding phone?

00:01:06.100 --> 00:01:08.100
I want to talk about that.

00:01:08.100 --> 00:01:09.800
So I guess.

00:01:09.800 --> 00:01:20.900
Yeah, I think it's, I don't know.

00:01:20.900 --> 00:01:22.400
I think I certainly am.

00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:24.800
Is it? Certainly it just speaking for myself here,

00:01:24.800 --> 00:01:25.900
when I'm looking at a folding phone.

00:01:25.900 --> 00:01:28.200
I'm not thinking, oh, yeah, it's something I've used every

00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:31.800
day, but maybe it's because I don't have one.

00:01:31.800 --> 00:01:50.900
Maybe I'm in the open between them and they work mostly separately

00:01:50.900 --> 00:01:51.900
independently of each other.

00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:59.200
Where is the the galaxy galaxy Z fold three,

00:01:59.200 --> 00:02:00.700
which is the worst name ever.

00:02:00.700 --> 00:02:07.300
That's a true screen that that opens into a fold into a larger

00:02:07.300 --> 00:02:07.600
one.

00:02:08.500 --> 00:02:12.500
Now, the question is, what's the point,

00:02:12.500 --> 00:02:15.900
right? Like, why do we need this stuff?

00:02:15.900 --> 00:02:17.700
So Apple just came out the iPad Mini,

00:02:17.700 --> 00:02:32.200
which is, in my mind the perfect mostly 85,

00:02:32.200 --> 00:02:36.000
+ percent screen to body ratio, very thin very light,

00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:36.900
all that stuff was fantastic.

00:02:36.900 --> 00:02:38.500
Now,

00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:46.900
The concept of a folding phone would be to take that and sold

00:02:46.900 --> 00:02:49.000
it so you can put it in your pocket.

00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:50.700
What are you really doing?

00:02:50.700 --> 00:02:54.500
Right? What do you really mean?

00:02:54.500 --> 00:02:56.300
What what are you gaining by doing?

00:02:56.300 --> 00:02:58.400
And that's the, that's the question.

00:02:58.400 --> 00:03:00.000
Is it a tablet?

00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:00.600
Is it a phone?

00:03:00.600 --> 00:03:02.500
I've used them.

00:03:03.600 --> 00:03:05.500
Not for any like real extended. Of

00:03:05.500 --> 00:03:06.400
time, but I'll try them.

00:03:06.400 --> 00:03:07.600
And I guess that is definitely a wow,

00:03:07.600 --> 00:03:11.300
factor is cool when you do it once that wears off.

00:03:12.600 --> 00:03:16.400
You kind of have I want to the worst of Both Worlds,

00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:21.100
but the mediocre of Both Worlds, where is it's not really

00:03:21.100 --> 00:03:25.200
a great phone and it's not really a great tablet.

00:03:25.200 --> 00:03:31.200
So you have this very thick, very fragile device.

00:03:31.200 --> 00:03:34.800
That doesn't do things quite as well as a as like the iPhone

00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:39.500
13 or as well as her iPad Pro with the iPad Air,

00:03:39.500 --> 00:03:43.000
like a mini and your kind of in-between here.

00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:45.700
Now, what would like us others doing,

00:03:45.700 --> 00:03:49.400
I kind of like, because they're emphasizing the productivity

00:03:49.400 --> 00:03:58.000
aspect less of phone and more of a device to get work done and

00:03:58.000 --> 00:03:59.600
it's a it's a style windows.

00:04:01.400 --> 00:04:04.100
They're probably better position for a good succeed,

00:04:04.100 --> 00:04:06.900
but it's not going to succeed because first of all the way too

00:04:06.900 --> 00:04:10.700
expensive by Android phone for Microsoft.

00:04:10.700 --> 00:04:12.000
So there's did that to her tools.

00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:15.600
And the third one is that you really need to be connected

00:04:15.600 --> 00:04:19.900
to stump ecosystem for all of this to work.

00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:26.100
So apple is position to probably blow this Market open.

00:04:26.100 --> 00:04:33.600
I just don't know that they're ever going to do it because

00:04:33.600 --> 00:04:35.800
it's about connectivity.

00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:39.100
It's about locking, ecosystem walking.

00:04:39.100 --> 00:04:41.400
When you, cuz you're combining two products that you would

00:04:41.400 --> 00:04:42.000
buy separately.

00:04:42.900 --> 00:04:47.300
And you know, Samsung does Samsung doesn't have the ecosystem

00:04:47.300 --> 00:04:54.700
monopolize, Microsoft doesn't matter, but not on the tablet

00:04:54.700 --> 00:04:57.100
side surfaces surfaces. That

00:04:57.100 --> 00:04:59.700
is if it's a PC to iPad is a,

00:04:59.700 --> 00:05:02.600
is a is a portable different.

00:05:02.600 --> 00:05:11.300
So you throw a phone and work and Samsung doesn't have just

00:05:11.300 --> 00:05:20.800
did something there about the Samsung Galaxy interface

00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:26.300
that people just don't stay with or use in the in in the way

00:05:26.300 --> 00:05:29.600
that that they use iOS in in TVO F and all that stuff combined.

00:05:31.700 --> 00:05:35.200
I'm just going to say real quick to to Juliet's earlier point

00:05:35.200 --> 00:05:37.200
about where is Mobile going.

00:05:37.200 --> 00:05:40.500
And we were talking about this a few minutes ago in the issue

00:05:40.500 --> 00:05:41.800
here to me seems to be that,

00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:45.400
you know, innovation has sort of slowed here.

00:05:45.400 --> 00:05:47.600
I mean we're talking about the surface Duo 2,

00:05:47.600 --> 00:05:51.200
which has at best a mixed-use case.

00:05:51.200 --> 00:05:53.100
It's a lot of cool technology.

00:05:53.100 --> 00:05:56.400
There's been a lot of money spent on developing it and at the

00:05:56.400 --> 00:05:59.500
hardware and software, you know, this is also the week that

00:05:59.500 --> 00:06:03.300
the iPhone 1313 Pro arrive, great devices,

00:06:03.300 --> 00:06:08.100
once again, iterative not really specifically Innovative

00:06:08.100 --> 00:06:09.200
Dental in a larger scale.

00:06:09.200 --> 00:06:11.400
I know there's lots of things and apple does with the phone,

00:06:11.400 --> 00:06:14.700
the battery that promotion screen, all the things that add up

00:06:14.700 --> 00:06:18.700
to the, the iPhone experience, but the iPhone that's going

00:06:18.700 --> 00:06:20.400
to arrive on the 24th.

00:06:20.400 --> 00:06:23.700
Tomorrow, you know, doesn't look that much different from one

00:06:23.700 --> 00:06:26.600
five years ago or even radically different from one,

00:06:26.600 --> 00:06:28.400
you know, 10 years ago.

00:06:28.400 --> 00:06:30.100
And I just wonder if, you know,

00:06:30.100 --> 00:06:31.500
are we at a point now, where?

00:06:31.700 --> 00:06:35.000
Companies like Microsoft because they've got the money to spend

00:06:35.000 --> 00:06:37.600
on this. Kind of research are sort of throwing spaghetti

00:06:37.600 --> 00:06:39.500
at the wall to see what sticks,

00:06:39.500 --> 00:06:42.700
which is why the duo who exists and,

00:06:42.700 --> 00:06:46.100
you know, and waiting to see if an audience or Market will build

00:06:46.100 --> 00:06:47.000
for it is that the you know,

00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:54.300
the case and apple famously says $1,000.

00:06:54.300 --> 00:06:55.700
For every yes, they don't need a republican.

00:06:55.700 --> 00:06:57.700
So

00:07:08.500 --> 00:07:11.000
In the sense that they're not going to read some news about.

00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:18.500
Let's, let's see if people want this but if you look at the original

00:07:18.500 --> 00:07:22.100
Apple watch the original iPhone, the original back for that

00:07:22.100 --> 00:07:26.500
matter. Everything that came after weather Innovative

00:07:26.500 --> 00:07:27.500
or or iterative.

00:07:27.500 --> 00:07:31.100
It's all an evolution of that original concept.

00:07:31.100 --> 00:07:34.100
They don't scrap it all Android TV.

00:07:34.100 --> 00:07:36.900
Apple watches a good example because that's changed a lot since

00:07:36.900 --> 00:07:38.700
its launch and I was only 2015.

00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:44.500
But the core concept of what it is and what it does is the

00:07:44.500 --> 00:07:47.000
same, you know, it looks essentially the same,

00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:51.200
it does the fitness thing, the messaging and obviously,

00:07:51.200 --> 00:07:54.200
you know, time in the notification and things that been around

00:07:54.200 --> 00:07:57.300
your wrist and it has changed.

00:07:57.300 --> 00:08:00.600
A lot of the functionality has changed a lot at cellular

00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:02.000
does a lot of things about a phone now,

00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:03.400
and then I need to stuff like that.

00:08:03.400 --> 00:08:07.800
But what Apple presented to us in 2015,

00:08:07.800 --> 00:08:11.600
as the Apple watch, is essentially the same thing with the iPhone.

00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:13.200
I mean, you put an iPhone one,

00:08:13.200 --> 00:08:19.900
but the corner except is the same that that's what I mean.

00:08:19.900 --> 00:08:23.300
Yes. I mean obviously there's been so much that's that's happened

00:08:23.300 --> 00:08:25.000
in the last, you know, 15 14,

00:08:25.000 --> 00:08:28.300
15 years on the phone, just put it in terms of,

00:08:28.300 --> 00:08:29.100
you know, what it is.

00:08:29.100 --> 00:08:29.900
What it does.

00:08:29.900 --> 00:08:32.100
Other than the addition of saying, you know,

00:08:32.100 --> 00:08:33.300
apps and the camera. I mean

00:08:33.300 --> 00:08:36.000
obviously, you know, the iPhone started off as a phone

00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:38.600
with a screen and now it's basically a camera with a phone

00:08:38.600 --> 00:08:39.300
right now.

00:08:39.800 --> 00:08:42.700
When you when you look at how apple is pitching the new iPhones

00:08:42.700 --> 00:08:46.700
this year. It's all about photography and video and,

00:08:46.700 --> 00:08:52.300
you know, the systematic or Cinema, whatever that video mode

00:08:52.300 --> 00:08:58.200
is bionic and you can get a terabyte of storage and you got five,

00:08:58.200 --> 00:08:59.600
do whatever but it's all about that.

00:08:59.600 --> 00:09:04.800
And if they took a look at the first or second generation,

00:09:04.800 --> 00:09:07.900
look to see what people are doing with them and then kind of went in

00:09:07.900 --> 00:09:11.000
that direction, along with him, a lot of Health stuff Fitness

00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:16.400
stuff. I pay attention, but they also don't like the point

00:09:16.400 --> 00:09:16.900
of all this is

00:09:18.300 --> 00:09:20.200
We may never see a folding phone or not.

00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:25.000
But if we do, it's going to be one that has a solid foundation

00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:27.400
to stop. Like they're going to have up here.

00:09:27.400 --> 00:09:28.800
This is why we're doing this.

00:09:28.800 --> 00:09:30.300
It's not going to be.

00:09:30.300 --> 00:09:33.600
Well, we have this technology, we can fold glass.

00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:37.000
So let's make a phone and then we'll figure out the rest later,

00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:39.200
like know that the concept is going to start.

00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:42.300
Like, this is why we need this and here's a device.

00:09:42.300 --> 00:09:44.500
If you need to do with it.

00:09:44.500 --> 00:09:47.500
That's if you, if you look at every Apple product introduction.

00:09:48.300 --> 00:09:53.600
They start with why we're making, this is what you're going

00:09:53.600 --> 00:09:54.100
to do with it.

00:09:54.100 --> 00:09:56.900
This is what it's for, and then they show it to him.

00:09:56.900 --> 00:10:02.600
He was famous with that because he would like easy Bill do remember

00:10:02.600 --> 00:10:13.200
the MacBook Air out of Hollis and slick,

00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:17.100
but the point was, the product is the,

00:10:17.100 --> 00:10:21.200
the, the the part where is the end result of all this stuff

00:10:21.200 --> 00:10:23.300
that we're the engineering?

00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:26.100
Is on the inside and the concept.

00:10:26.100 --> 00:10:27.300
And the end, the end, the end,

00:10:27.300 --> 00:10:31.100
the strategy. And then we build this beautiful thing around

00:10:31.100 --> 00:10:37.700
all that. So a folding phone Apple can do that.

00:10:37.700 --> 00:10:38.600
Sure. It's cool.

00:10:38.600 --> 00:10:39.500
I'm people would buy it.

00:10:39.500 --> 00:10:42.200
But what's the, what's the, what's the point?

00:10:42.200 --> 00:10:44.500
What's the reason for it to exist?

00:10:44.500 --> 00:10:49.100
He said, the iPhone is interested too.

00:10:49.100 --> 00:10:53.100
Fantastic,. Probably the best if not the best right up there.

00:10:53.100 --> 00:10:57.900
And that's what it's about into, but the core positive of the

00:10:57.900 --> 00:11:03.500
iPhone, but it's still a revolutionary internet Communicator

00:11:03.500 --> 00:11:06.300
that fits in your pocket is the same as it is,

00:11:06.300 --> 00:11:07.300
what it was.

00:11:07.300 --> 00:11:09.400
And that's, that's apples.

00:11:09.400 --> 00:11:12.900
Whole concept of really why they do all of this stuff.

00:11:12.900 --> 00:11:16.300
I would love to take a walk through.

00:11:16.300 --> 00:11:19.900
Johnny Ives off basement one day and see all the things I didn't

00:11:19.900 --> 00:11:21.300
get me cuz you know,

00:11:24.200 --> 00:11:28.800
Whoever's doing it just to see like all the things that they

00:11:28.800 --> 00:11:37.500
did say no to your butt.

00:11:38.600 --> 00:11:51.000
And and that's that's what makes Apple special in my mind.

00:11:51.000 --> 00:11:53.500
Go ahead. That's exactly what I was.

00:11:53.500 --> 00:11:59.800
Sort of going to ask is along the lines of like I guess we

00:11:59.800 --> 00:12:03.900
can theorize all day long like whether or not folded phones

00:12:03.900 --> 00:12:07.200
are like a thing that are truly here to stay.

00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:12.200
But I am wondering and I know you guys don't have a hard numbers.

00:12:12.200 --> 00:12:15.700
I am wondering, truly how many people have?

00:12:15.700 --> 00:12:16.800
A folding phone?

00:12:16.800 --> 00:12:18.600
If you have one, please do let us know.

00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:21.400
I would love to be corrected on this point,

00:12:21.400 --> 00:12:24.300
but is it useful?

00:12:24.300 --> 00:12:26.700
Is it improving your life?

00:12:26.700 --> 00:12:28.000
Anyway, I mean, it's early.

00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:29.300
I'm sure it is cool.

00:12:29.300 --> 00:12:31.100
But to that and I'm wondering like,

00:12:31.100 --> 00:12:34.900
is there a market enough for a folding folding phone?

00:12:36.100 --> 00:12:50.600
Is 23 Generation review purposes, or support that I've never

00:12:50.600 --> 00:13:01.200
seen a full day and I've never seen one.

00:13:01.200 --> 00:13:07.900
I haven't either, but I think the last number is less soft numbers.

00:13:07.900 --> 00:13:10.000
We saw were a few million.

00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:11.200
Like, they're they're selling.

00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:14.300
That's, that's over a year and changing,

00:13:14.300 --> 00:13:14.800
you know that.

00:13:14.800 --> 00:13:18.500
But the, the I don't think they're ever going to reach the point,

00:13:18.500 --> 00:13:22.900
but it's going to be a while before they reached the point

00:13:22.900 --> 00:13:27.600
where they say, supplant the the, the the regular things or using a

00:13:27.600 --> 00:13:29.300
phone and a tablet, and a computer.

00:13:29.300 --> 00:13:32.900
And maybe there's something there and maybe there is a way to

00:13:32.900 --> 00:13:35.900
combine all these devices into something that we can put in.

00:13:36.100 --> 00:13:40.200
I can open up and we use a closet but it just right now,

00:13:40.200 --> 00:13:49.500
it's a cool thing I can do that on this.

00:13:49.500 --> 00:13:52.400
But but but look at it's if it's in my pocket,

00:13:52.400 --> 00:13:59.600
but yeah, so does my reason for this thing to exist?

00:13:59.600 --> 00:14:01.500
That's my biggest problem with

00:14:02.600 --> 00:14:03.700
Folding phones. Really?

00:14:03.700 --> 00:14:07.100
In general. Yeah, I do feel like it's the kind of thing that

00:14:07.100 --> 00:14:11.200
you need. I mean at least for the time being again.

00:14:11.200 --> 00:14:12.000
I don't want to say anything.

00:14:12.000 --> 00:14:17.400
And then years from now it's going to come back forever Juliet.

00:14:17.400 --> 00:14:25.400
Kind of thing that you need a specific at 4 to become like a

00:14:25.400 --> 00:14:28.600
true mainstream. Now to school party drink if you need a specific

00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:30.200
use case for something like this.

00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:34.400
And I'm wondering if that use case is going to come.

00:14:34.400 --> 00:14:36.500
I can't think of one off of the top of my head,

00:14:36.500 --> 00:14:40.700
but I'm sure that there is one has followed wherever they're

00:14:40.700 --> 00:14:41.500
making Fulton films.

00:14:41.500 --> 00:14:42.700
I mean, maybe I have the same.

00:14:42.700 --> 00:14:47.300
I have the same questions about AR glasses and it has to be a

00:14:47.300 --> 00:14:51.600
reason for it to exist.

00:14:52.600 --> 00:14:54.300
And right now, I don't see.

00:14:54.300 --> 00:14:57.200
And I'm not surprised that Apple has it entered.

00:14:57.200 --> 00:14:59.600
This space and I'm not surprised at their date.

00:14:59.600 --> 00:15:02.000
There's no rumors suggesting they going to do it next year or

00:15:02.000 --> 00:15:03.000
even really that you're at.

00:15:03.000 --> 00:15:06.300
The room is like 2025 and Beyond and I'm sure they're working

00:15:06.300 --> 00:15:07.500
on them for the airport.

00:15:07.500 --> 00:15:10.200
I'm sure there are production.

00:15:10.200 --> 00:15:12.100
You know, this is what they do.

00:15:12.100 --> 00:15:13.300
They had to spend it.

00:15:17.300 --> 00:15:22.400
To make, you know, the the very iterative iPhone 13 that we see

00:15:22.400 --> 00:15:32.300
before us and you know, how that seemed to be a bit of a

00:15:32.300 --> 00:15:35.400
surprise breakout star from the event last week.

00:15:35.400 --> 00:15:37.900
Jonny Evans on computer world had a piece.

00:15:37.900 --> 00:15:41.300
I think it was this week talking about agreeing with that and

00:15:41.300 --> 00:15:44.200
saying that Apple should take the iPad mini and end release

00:15:44.200 --> 00:15:45.600
the pro version of it.

00:15:45.600 --> 00:15:47.200
Any thoughts around that?

00:15:47.200 --> 00:15:49.100
Do you think if you think that would be successful? You

00:15:49.100 --> 00:15:55.600
know, what mini the mini probe me?

00:15:55.600 --> 00:15:57.500
An iPad Pro Mini?

00:16:04.100 --> 00:16:17.600
Whatever an iPad Pro does, an iPad Mini has an S15 processor

00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:20.700
and has apple pencil 2 support as USB C and has up to 24. This

00:16:20.700 --> 00:16:23.100
is big, but the storage that has an 8.3 liquid Retina

00:16:23.100 --> 00:16:26.800
Display. What more do you need from it?

00:16:26.800 --> 00:16:31.300
That you don't have strep throat, so I don't think I mean,

00:16:31.300 --> 00:16:33.500
I'll tell Johnny you think he's an idea is all wet.

00:16:40.100 --> 00:16:44.000
I mean, I don't know what if somebody asked me.

00:16:45.100 --> 00:16:47.900
I want to 11 or 12 in iPad.

00:16:47.900 --> 00:16:50.600
I would tell him to buy the air if they say,

00:16:50.600 --> 00:16:51.400
I want a 9-inch.

00:16:51.400 --> 00:16:52.600
I bet I would tell him to buy the mini.

00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:56.200
That's it. I don't see any reason to recommend $1,000,

00:16:56.200 --> 00:16:59.000
iPad, when you have a really good $500 one,

00:16:59.000 --> 00:17:01.100
right? And this goes right back to the point.

00:17:01.100 --> 00:17:03.200
We've been making about Innovation, vs.

00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:06.500
Iterative, you know, information, whatever.

00:17:06.500 --> 00:17:10.000
So we don't have something the iPad.

00:17:10.000 --> 00:17:12.500
Now, if you picked it up, would look very similar.

00:17:12.500 --> 00:17:15.800
If somebody came out of 2010's, it was the iPad look like you

00:17:15.800 --> 00:17:16.300
held it up.

00:17:16.300 --> 00:17:22.500
It's okay. So the market big, small,

00:17:22.500 --> 00:17:26.000
pronoun, Pro, whatever, but it's just variations on a theme

00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:36.600
and I still fail to see between the ten point.

00:17:36.600 --> 00:17:38.200
Nine inches are in the 11-inch, iPad Pro.

00:17:40.200 --> 00:17:43.600
What what is the reason to spend 20 more dollars?

00:17:43.600 --> 00:17:44.300
I don't get it.

00:17:44.300 --> 00:17:47.900
And even the 12.9 inch or maybe you want the bigger screen,

00:17:47.900 --> 00:17:53.100
which I don't think you need to find him,

00:17:53.100 --> 00:17:54.700
but I don't understand.

00:17:54.700 --> 00:17:57.800
Like maybe if they got rid of that 11-inch model,

00:17:57.800 --> 00:18:00.100
that would make more sense to me cuz any of 8.3,

00:18:00.100 --> 00:18:03.700
10.9 12.9. Okay, I can see that.

00:18:03.700 --> 00:18:04.400
That, that's different.

00:18:04.400 --> 00:18:08.800
Different levels of at least screen size and the iPad Pro 12.9

00:18:08.800 --> 00:18:11.800
has that really nice xdr display?

00:18:11.800 --> 00:18:17.100
So then and then the bottom when I was on Batman that they were.

00:18:17.100 --> 00:18:20.700
So maybe it's just at 11, but I did.

00:18:20.700 --> 00:18:22.900
I just I would

00:18:23.900 --> 00:18:27.600
I would, I would venture to say that the iPad Mini is the pro

00:18:27.600 --> 00:18:28.700
version of the old.

00:18:28.700 --> 00:18:40.500
I think we're, we're, we're, we're out in left field in Mobile

00:18:40.500 --> 00:18:42.400
technology. You know, what's going on?

00:18:42.400 --> 00:18:43.400
That's all right.

00:18:43.400 --> 00:18:47.000
So the whole point about the range of iPads in the difference

00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:48.000
between a crow and a regular.

00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:51.100
What do you thinking, you know, iPhone Pro,

00:18:51.100 --> 00:18:52.800
iPhone 13 Pro, vs.

00:18:52.800 --> 00:18:54.500
IPhone 13. You got a 13 now,

00:18:54.500 --> 00:18:55.800
right? Yes. Okay.

00:18:55.800 --> 00:19:00.600
Do you think the differentiation is there variations on a theme

00:19:00.600 --> 00:19:03.000
but is that a distinctive?

00:19:03.000 --> 00:19:13.200
Because there are things better than batteries better.

00:19:13.200 --> 00:19:15.200
That's why you buy a phone for.

00:19:15.200 --> 00:19:21.600
I'm surprised that Apple didn't like split a 5G and have some

00:19:21.600 --> 00:19:23.400
sticks here is a mini ice up 6 or not.

00:19:23.900 --> 00:19:27.200
A little surprised that they didn't keep me warm anyway for the

00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:30.700
post, but the things a pro has extra camera.

00:19:30.700 --> 00:19:38.400
Telephoto macro a hundred twenty hours promotion display

00:19:38.400 --> 00:19:39.800
and and better battery life.

00:19:41.300 --> 00:19:51.200
Or.

00:19:52.200 --> 00:19:54.500
The boy, get the bigger screen 6.7.

00:19:54.500 --> 00:19:56.600
So that's 1100 bucks.

00:19:56.600 --> 00:20:00.100
I think absolutely, those are pro devices.

00:20:00.100 --> 00:20:00.500
The two things.

00:20:00.500 --> 00:20:06.600
I would add USB C, apple pencil support that would,

00:20:06.600 --> 00:20:09.300
that would be the complete pro package in my mind.

00:20:09.300 --> 00:20:13.300
Right now, if you I would, if someone said I wanted by 6.1 and

00:20:13.300 --> 00:20:15.400
type on iPhone, which one should I get?

00:20:15.400 --> 00:20:17.800
I would ask you to take a lot of picture.

00:20:17.800 --> 00:20:18.300
Do you unlock?

00:20:18.300 --> 00:20:19.600
What picture do you like telephone?

00:20:19.600 --> 00:20:23.900
There are absolute definitive reason to buy a pro iPhone.

00:20:23.900 --> 00:20:25.300
IPad Pro.

00:20:26.400 --> 00:20:30.300
Are you telling you, you have won between the 11:00 in Paris

00:20:30.300 --> 00:20:36.800
for the big-screen difference.

00:20:36.800 --> 00:20:40.800
Sherpa people ask me in the last week?

00:20:40.800 --> 00:20:41.300
What should they get?

00:20:41.300 --> 00:20:43.600
And I said get the air for that reason.

00:20:43.600 --> 00:20:56.900
So I think to the story of tile this discussion into a neat

00:20:56.900 --> 00:21:00.900
bow. It is I guess I'm wondering is like,

00:21:00.900 --> 00:21:05.700
what is the, what does the future of mobile look like?

00:21:05.700 --> 00:21:07.700
Like what is an?

00:21:07.700 --> 00:21:10.100
It's okay. If you guys don't have an answer for this,

00:21:10.100 --> 00:21:15.000
but I'm wondering like you're not with me.

00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:19.000
So I'm wondering what?

00:21:19.000 --> 00:21:20.600
Like me. No Blue Sky.

00:21:20.600 --> 00:21:26.800
What is the ideal mobile device and like is that so And that

00:21:26.800 --> 00:21:28.600
you see in the future.

00:21:28.600 --> 00:21:32.500
Is it, is it like a combo phone tablet?

00:21:32.500 --> 00:21:33.600
Like these folding phones.

00:21:33.600 --> 00:21:35.200
Is it iPad?

00:21:35.200 --> 00:21:37.300
Ask? Is it is it.

00:21:37.300 --> 00:21:43.600
Don't ask no glasses, glasses.

00:21:43.600 --> 00:21:45.700
That's, that's a bit a bit out,

00:21:45.700 --> 00:21:49.000
couple years. I'm still waiting.

00:21:49.000 --> 00:21:54.500
I'm still waiting for that in-between device.

00:21:54.500 --> 00:22:04.500
So when when Apple released on you show two things on the screen,

00:22:04.500 --> 00:22:06.600
iPhone and the MacBook.

00:22:07.500 --> 00:22:09.100
And he said, the iPhone is great for,

00:22:09.100 --> 00:22:10.300
you know, quick little things.

00:22:10.300 --> 00:22:13.200
I took meds make it fall in his grave for Cindy and ask him

00:22:13.200 --> 00:22:21.500
something between those two things between the iPad and the MacBook,

00:22:21.500 --> 00:22:25.300
that brings me the power of a Mac Book in the heroes of the

00:22:25.300 --> 00:22:26.900
MacBook. In the multitasking, all things.

00:22:26.900 --> 00:22:29.400
I do in a Mac with the portability and the versatility

00:22:29.400 --> 00:22:34.800
and the the the various features of an iPad and they're trying

00:22:34.800 --> 00:22:47.400
to get current Hardware, you know, the iPad Pro or iPad whatever

00:22:47.400 --> 00:22:50.600
and it ran Macos with like a pin-up,

00:22:50.600 --> 00:22:55.700
you know, the pencil hacks, you could use the pencil on that

00:22:55.700 --> 00:22:57.400
beat in between device.

00:22:57.400 --> 00:23:00.300
You're talking about, but I guess like,

00:23:00.300 --> 00:23:03.400
Mac OS on an iPad with Mark version of

00:23:07.500 --> 00:23:10.800
I mean, that's why I love to see that like to see what it

00:23:10.800 --> 00:23:15.100
is and what the problems are because it's an M1 chip.

00:23:15.100 --> 00:23:20.500
So you think it's green.

00:23:20.500 --> 00:23:33.500
So it's basically the same as a MacBook Air to ever build a laptop

00:23:33.500 --> 00:23:34.900
with a touch screen.

00:23:34.900 --> 00:23:39.100
But if you had, if you had just regular iPad with Mac OS,

00:23:39.100 --> 00:23:40.000
running on it.

00:23:40.000 --> 00:23:42.000
Yeah. I'm sure you'd realize real quick then.

00:23:42.000 --> 00:23:44.400
It's really not to say that the 9:40,

00:23:44.400 --> 00:23:46.600
but neither has Windows.

00:23:46.600 --> 00:23:52.500
And then for every have a similar device to what you're describing

00:23:52.500 --> 00:23:57.300
really designed for such either in that works.

00:23:57.300 --> 00:24:01.700
I think perhaps Apple is is taking that too far.

00:24:02.600 --> 00:24:03.600
That yes not go.

00:24:03.600 --> 00:24:07.100
Bad. Once. You're not wanting to try to reply back if you're

00:24:07.100 --> 00:24:14.800
sitting at a desk Nikki.

00:24:14.800 --> 00:24:20.800
We're here being mobile device.

00:24:20.800 --> 00:24:28.500
Like we all want every year by something.

00:24:28.500 --> 00:24:30.900
I mean it is stupid.

00:24:30.900 --> 00:24:34.700
As I still remember the iPhone introduction,

00:24:34.700 --> 00:24:37.300
like what it was like it was like a concert was it,

00:24:37.300 --> 00:24:39.200
you know, it was it was it was,

00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:44.100
it was a rockstar and that was his Woodstock.

00:24:44.100 --> 00:24:46.500
I mean it was just, it was incredible to watch.

00:24:46.500 --> 00:24:49.900
We want that every year when I get it.

00:24:49.900 --> 00:24:54.300
It's it's impossible to keep up and what Apple has done since

00:24:54.300 --> 00:24:57.000
then is stronger, really impressed the iPhone 13th.

00:24:57.000 --> 00:24:58.400
So we talked about 17 years.

00:24:59.600 --> 00:25:01.600
I mean, it's, it's amazing.

00:25:01.600 --> 00:25:02.500
It's in time.

00:25:02.500 --> 00:25:04.300
It is downright incredible.

00:25:04.300 --> 00:25:07.500
What it can do and The Innovation wall.

00:25:07.500 --> 00:25:12.000
If there is one, it's only because it's gotten so good and does

00:25:12.000 --> 00:25:15.000
so much that we reach a point where they are.

00:25:15.000 --> 00:25:16.500
So what's, what's next?

00:25:16.500 --> 00:25:17.600
I do want to know is on display.

00:25:17.600 --> 00:25:20.700
But aside from that, like, you know,

00:25:20.700 --> 00:25:23.900
there's nothing that I want my iPhone to do that.

00:25:25.500 --> 00:25:27.900
I was going to say one of the things about the pace of innovation

00:25:27.900 --> 00:25:29.200
being so fast.

00:25:29.200 --> 00:25:30.700
Is it easy to forget quickly?

00:25:30.700 --> 00:25:38.000
What we couldn't do 14 years ago and rum,

00:25:38.000 --> 00:25:40.000
you know, we can do that a chat with me. When

00:25:40.000 --> 00:25:52.000
was the iPhone anywhere anytime over a high-speed

00:25:52.000 --> 00:25:55.000
5G Internet working on a device that will last,

00:25:55.000 --> 00:25:57.300
you know, you would have been like holy cow.

00:25:57.300 --> 00:25:58.200
That's got to be thirty years.

00:25:58.200 --> 00:26:01.900
I like video.

00:26:01.900 --> 00:26:14.900
It's like, it's like we don't even think you can go back to movies

00:26:14.900 --> 00:26:18.800
from like the 80s and what we have video chat is better than that.

00:26:18.800 --> 00:26:21.200
Is a lot of ways.

00:26:21.200 --> 00:26:25.200
I mean, it's it's it's remarkable what we've got.

00:26:25.500 --> 00:26:30.500
We're also so spoiled that we need that,

00:26:30.500 --> 00:26:34.500
you know, that thing which is why we have all this because

00:26:34.500 --> 00:26:38.700
you know, apple is in a unique position.

00:26:41.600 --> 00:26:45.700
Is headline-making worthy Samsung in Google.

00:26:45.700 --> 00:26:55.300
And you know, these products are talking about and buzzing

00:26:55.300 --> 00:26:58.600
about and you know, I think that's where folding phones come

00:26:58.600 --> 00:26:58.800
from.

00:26:59.800 --> 00:27:03.200
I'm still not convinced that it's the next big thing and it certainly

00:27:03.200 --> 00:27:05.100
won't be the next big thing of Apple never does it.

00:27:05.100 --> 00:27:07.500
Cuz that's that's what it has to be.

00:27:07.500 --> 00:27:16.100
For example. The iPhone has a 3X zoom lens and that's like that's

00:27:16.100 --> 00:27:17.100
that's in the headlights.

00:27:17.100 --> 00:27:25.700
If I was a Samsung executive.

00:27:25.700 --> 00:27:27.300
I would be tearing my hair out dealing.

00:27:27.300 --> 00:27:28.300
What the hell?

00:27:28.300 --> 00:27:30.100
We have been doing this for 2 years.

00:27:30.100 --> 00:27:33.200
I mean, I tested as a Galaxy s20.

00:27:33.200 --> 00:27:37.000
I could see clear across my yard into my window clearly.

00:27:37.700 --> 00:27:39.900
And I'll Be There, Michael don't tell us more.

00:27:39.900 --> 00:27:43.500
I don't want to know why I wrote in my review that there's a

00:27:43.500 --> 00:27:50.700
privacy issue, but the 3x and people like apples to apples

00:27:50.700 --> 00:27:53.900
in this position where he can do small little bit of updates

00:27:53.900 --> 00:27:58.100
and generate the kind of buzz that people have to create folding

00:27:58.100 --> 00:28:00.800
plastic. So they're in a very unique,

00:28:00.800 --> 00:28:02.100
very, very fortuitous. That

00:28:02.100 --> 00:28:09.300
one last statement, not a question just in the last few

00:28:09.300 --> 00:28:12.900
minutes here is I think that there is and just maybe could

00:28:12.900 --> 00:28:14.100
be from my perspective.

00:28:14.100 --> 00:28:21.100
As someone who definitely is immersed In the Heat of the Y2K

00:28:21.100 --> 00:28:25.500
Trend. Calm back is some of this also just feels very nostalgic

00:28:25.500 --> 00:28:29.500
and I think like obviously you're going to pull and you're

00:28:29.500 --> 00:28:31.900
going to innovate based off of what happened in the past and

00:28:31.900 --> 00:28:35.500
pull inspiration from previous things, but it's I do wonder

00:28:35.500 --> 00:28:37.000
why I feel like

00:28:38.200 --> 00:28:41.900
Some of the gimmick is, it does feel very nostalgic like when

00:28:41.900 --> 00:28:46.500
Motorola came out with a folding razor,

00:28:46.500 --> 00:28:48.100
but you know, what?

00:28:48.100 --> 00:28:49.900
Your two ago if that's fun.

00:28:49.900 --> 00:28:54.300
It's a nostalgic and it's that at least is interesting.

00:28:54.300 --> 00:28:57.000
So I do feel like it also kind of kind of ties in neatly

00:28:57.000 --> 00:29:00.800
with the trend cycle that were saying and you know stash and

00:29:00.800 --> 00:29:16.700
papa aren't going to change the ones that coolness where you're

00:29:16.700 --> 00:29:20.500
left with a phone that has a has a very strangely tall screen

00:29:20.500 --> 00:29:24.400
apps. Don't quite some, do some don't work.

00:29:24.400 --> 00:29:29.000
How well do these work when you when you test them in the past?

00:29:29.000 --> 00:29:29.300
Mike.

00:29:30.500 --> 00:29:36.100
I mean, the two main ones are good enough but like text are wonky

00:29:36.100 --> 00:29:38.700
like there are cuz cuz it's at all screens of the word break

00:29:38.700 --> 00:29:40.400
differently in typing his strength.

00:29:40.400 --> 00:29:43.100
Like it's, it's, it's, it's not perfect.

00:29:43.100 --> 00:29:46.700
But then again, you know, the iPad took a while to get their

00:29:46.700 --> 00:29:51.600
apps member remember and to do you remember can win the regional

00:29:51.600 --> 00:30:07.000
iPad. Like it was literally blown up by fun at the snap of a finger

00:30:07.000 --> 00:30:07.800
and just make it.

00:30:07.800 --> 00:30:09.400
That is it is, it is not easy.

00:30:09.400 --> 00:30:18.900
Apple makes it a little bit easier than most of the scenes.

00:30:18.900 --> 00:30:22.600
None of the hood that goes into these devices is amazing.

00:30:22.600 --> 00:30:23.600
I don't want to sell that.

00:30:30.500 --> 00:30:44.200
Different resolution support the continued gesture.

00:30:44.200 --> 00:30:47.200
Is a new screen resolution the new an opening and closing

00:30:47.200 --> 00:30:50.100
anime cuz all that stuff and it's not easy to get on board

00:30:50.100 --> 00:30:54.600
with with that has a lot of headaches and a lot of issues

00:30:54.600 --> 00:30:59.100
more so adorable because they're so secretive Samsung,

00:30:59.100 --> 00:31:00.900
you know, they work with developers ahead of time.

00:31:00.900 --> 00:31:03.100
A lot of the time to make sure that they're on board and also

00:31:03.100 --> 00:31:05.000
with Google to make your Android up to date.

00:31:05.000 --> 00:31:10.400
So there's a lot of questions, a lot of a lot of left turns

00:31:10.400 --> 00:31:12.300
and and and and stop signs ahead.

00:31:13.100 --> 00:31:14.800
I'm not convinced.

00:31:14.800 --> 00:31:15.700
That's that's where we're going.

00:31:15.700 --> 00:31:20.100
I would be very intrigued if it was like I would I would be

00:31:20.100 --> 00:31:22.100
I would be the first Moe probably behind can.

00:31:22.100 --> 00:31:23.900
But I'd be at the front of the line to buy one cuz I'll

00:31:23.900 --> 00:31:26.100
be interested in holding song.

00:31:26.100 --> 00:31:28.100
I don't think I'd be the from the line for folding.

00:31:28.100 --> 00:31:38.200
Julia. Can you record that said they wouldn't even I call you

00:31:38.200 --> 00:31:50.400
tonight. All right, cool.

00:31:50.400 --> 00:31:51.200
Thank you both so much.

00:31:51.200 --> 00:31:53.500
I thought this was certainly a fun discussion.

00:31:53.500 --> 00:31:57.000
I have come up as we were talking with my ideal mobile device

00:31:57.000 --> 00:31:59.800
is something very sci-fi that I can fold up to be like,

00:31:59.800 --> 00:32:04.400
you know, this big and stick it in my pocket and it is somehow

00:32:04.400 --> 00:32:07.300
also like laptop sized so

00:32:08.300 --> 00:32:09.400
That's my Pie in the Sky.

00:32:13.400 --> 00:32:16.300
I mean, the galaxies he does that but it's also a 17.

00:32:16.300 --> 00:32:26.200
Mm, screens, that roll.

00:32:26.200 --> 00:32:27.400
Maybe that's the that's the way.

00:32:27.400 --> 00:32:27.800
I don't know.

00:32:27.800 --> 00:32:28.700
I don't know what it is.

00:32:28.700 --> 00:32:40.700
Like, alright, well, thank you both so much for calling in and

00:32:40.700 --> 00:32:43.800
chatting. I really appreciate it, and thank you all so much
