Linus Tech tips coverage of CES 2014 is brought to you by nc.com your source for

2
00:00:05,319 --> 00:00:12,200
great technology selection and service along with Corsair memory and Western

3
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:16,840
Digital welcome to the Samsung booth folks we're here with the crown jewel of

4
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:25,480
their display here at CES which happens to also be a display this is a 21 by9

5
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:30,160
UHD TV it is 105 Ines diagonally making

6
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:32,399
it the largest and the most curved LCD

7
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:36,320
display available now it's t when I say available I mean available only to

8
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:39,399
people at Samsung where they might have a handful of them for trade shows just

9
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:43,280
like this because we don't have any confirmation in terms of exactly when

10
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:47,000
it's coming maybe sometime later this year but details are still kind of

11
00:00:45,239 --> 00:00:52,039
sketchy they just wanted to show it off because hey they can make this thing

12
00:00:48,879 --> 00:00:55,440
which is absolutely amazing now it's not

13
00:00:52,039 --> 00:00:58,320
a 4K UHD display instead it actually has

14
00:00:55,440 --> 00:01:03,039
more than 5,000 pixels horizontally which means that because these standards

15
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:09,280
are not 100% ratified someone buying this TV just like someone buying you

16
00:01:05,239 --> 00:01:11,240
know an HDMI 1.4 TV last year um with

17
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:15,200
the update to HDMI 2.0 coming right away might feel kind of insecure is it okay

18
00:01:13,439 --> 00:01:18,560
to buy something like this without knowing if the standards are are even

19
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:22,720
going to be supported well don't worry with Samsung's one connect technology

20
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:27,400
they actually are using an external box for connectivity as well as signal

21
00:01:24,799 --> 00:01:30,560
processing which allows you to just upgrade it once the standards are

22
00:01:28,799 --> 00:01:34,320
completely ratified now you might be wondering to yourself what exactly would

23
00:01:32,079 --> 00:01:38,479
I want a 21 by9 display for and the answer is most definitely movies with a

24
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:42,119
smaller display and we've been walking around the show floor a fair bit curved

25
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:48,640
maybe doesn't make quite as much of a difference but with a large one like this where you're really replicating the

26
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:51,399
field of view of a theater within your

27
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:55,040
home having each part of the screen an equal distance from your eye can make a

28
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:58,520
significant difference to the viewing experience this is much the same reason

29
00:01:57,079 --> 00:02:03,000
why when you go there this is for the same reason that when you go to theater

30
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:06,039
the display looks natural even though it is so large so we're going to be moving

31
00:02:04,759 --> 00:02:10,840
along here shortly I think someone's actually trying to get past us but it

32
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:14,959
looks absolutely phenomenal in person next up we're here with the Galaxy Note

33
00:02:12,640 --> 00:02:20,160
Pro this is the 12.2 in version but it's also available in 8.4 and 10.1 in

34
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:23,480
versions this one's got a quad core processor it's got 3 gigs of RAM of

35
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:27,599
course I mean it's a note Series so it's going to be pretty darn highend it's got

36
00:02:25,879 --> 00:02:32,519
a nice slim form factor it's actually not too heavy although it's hard to gauge with this security device on the

37
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:37,640
back speaking of the back it has a pleasing sort of leather feeling plastic

38
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:43,319
much like the Note 3 but of course the business is mostly in the front it has a

39
00:02:40,640 --> 00:02:49,599
massive 12.2 in as I mentioned before 2560 by 1440 display this makes it great

40
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:54,280
for watching movies but also due to its size great for taking notes because it

41
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:59,920
is approximately the same size as an 8 1/2 by 11 standard sheet of note taking

42
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:03,319
paper now of course a note device is not just about the hardware it's also about

43
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:07,840
the software so we see a lot of carryovers including an included stylist

44
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:11,920
that tucks away in the side from the Note 3 you've got Samsung's airdrop

45
00:03:09,879 --> 00:03:15,319
functionality so you just hover the pen over the display and then press the

46
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:18,480
button and you can go ahead and select a bunch of different stuff you can draw a

47
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,959
little window if you need a calculator you want to watch video or something

48
00:03:19,920 --> 00:03:25,319
like that with the supported applications and it makes multitasking a

49
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:30,040
little bit easier than with many other Android devices thanks to TouchWiz now

50
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:33,680
here's a new one that I haven't actually seen before if you swipe in from the

51
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:38,840
right and then instead of just clicking on one of the applications if you hold

52
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:40,480
it and drag you can configure up to four

53
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:44,519
different applications in a screen sharing mode that will make working on

54
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:48,799
things quite efficient especially if you move from one to another and back and

55
00:03:46,959 --> 00:03:51,879
forth and so forth now I did that slightly wrong there I think oh I think

56
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:55,560
this one doesn't work that way so let's go ahead and grab uh contacts here there

57
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:58,280
we go so we're going to split this up four ways actually we'll just do it

58
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:02,040
three ways and then check this out guys you can actually move around the division

59
00:04:00,239 --> 00:04:05,439
so if you want to have a nice long column for your emails you can have that

60
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:09,879
and then you can see more of your video thumbnails if you want to see more of your contacts over here you can just

61
00:04:07,879 --> 00:04:13,360
move that around dynamically it's incredibly cool and it integrates

62
00:04:11,519 --> 00:04:16,720
seamlessly with the other features so I could still use airdrop to you know like

63
00:04:15,159 --> 00:04:21,079
grab a little calculator or something like that now a device like this is not

64
00:04:19,199 --> 00:04:25,120
just for play it's also for work so we're going to go ahead and show you

65
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:29,840
guys their new software that is I guess meant to compete with things like um

66
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:33,360
Windows RT's inclusion of Microsoft office or Apple's inclusion of

67
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:37,440
productivity software with their devices now so check this out we're going to

68
00:04:34,639 --> 00:04:42,039
swipe open from the right hold on come in from the right here and this is

69
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:46,000
handcom so you've got sell show and word which are of course going to be

70
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:48,960
spreadsheets uh presentations and then typing so we're going to go ahead and

71
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:53,840
open one of these bad boys check that out they are they are claiming it's 90%

72
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:57,039
compatible with Microsoft Word so unless you're using some of the more obscure

73
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:59,759
features things will open up correctly even if you're saving them and then

74
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:03,919
opening them back and forth between devices

75
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:07,360
and because of the size okay that's a normal keyboard this is pretty cool guys

76
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:13,320
I'm going to go ahead and I'm going to close a bunch of other things and we're

77
00:05:09,199 --> 00:05:17,120
going to open up the handcom word so HW

78
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:19,319
in full screen maximize that and check

79
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:23,199
this out you've got almost about the size of a laptop keyboard on here it's

80
00:05:21,199 --> 00:05:26,280
not super easy to type on I made a few quite a few mistakes at the beginning

81
00:05:24,759 --> 00:05:30,639
but with a little bit of practice it would definitely be faster than trying

82
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:33,520
to type with just two thumbs so you kind of go okay lonus that's great there's a

83
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:36,840
lot of productivity stuff here that sounds fantastic but what if I can't

84
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:40,199
take this thing to work because my office doesn't allow people to bring

85
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:44,319
their own devices don't worry it is fully Samsung nox compliant so you've

86
00:05:42,919 --> 00:05:48,280
got all the encryption features that you need if you need to access vpns offsite

87
00:05:46,280 --> 00:05:51,319
or whatever else the case may be so it's definitely meant to be both

88
00:05:49,280 --> 00:05:54,520
entertainment and productivity thanks for checking out our coverage of the

89
00:05:52,479 --> 00:05:59,759
Samsung booth here at CES 2014 don't forget our trip to the show is powered

90

by nc.com as well as Corsair and Western

91
00:05:59,759 --> 00:06:06,280

92
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,280
been able to be here
