1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:07,680
you might think this is a show about tech news well think again buddy because

2
00:00:05,839 --> 00:00:11,440
clearly you've got a talent for thinking correctly

3
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:15,679
nice job huawei sometimes i feel bad for the chinese

4
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:19,680
tech giant like all they want to do is roll out 5g technology to everybody why

5
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:25,920
is the us and australia and europe treating them like they're spying for the chinese government and then huawei

6
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:28,400
goes and spies on apple allegedly a

7
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:32,079
report from the information.com details first-person accounts of huawei

8
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:36,000
attempting to steal and reverse engineer the design for the heart rate sensor

9
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:39,840
used in the apple watch a number of manufacturers reportedly refused to

10
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:43,840
manufacture the part for huawei because they recognized the component another

11
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:47,520
story involves a former apple employee being repeatedly asked about upcoming

12
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:52,079
apple products and features while interviewing for a job at huawei now

13
00:00:50,239 --> 00:00:57,680
some might hear news like this and think hey that's just business okay

14
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:58,480
that's just how it goes others might ask

15
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:03,280
why why why

16
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:07,760
the world is about to see a lot of folding and bendable devices and tcl is

17
00:01:06,159 --> 00:01:11,920
looking to get ahead of the curve by patenting a bending phone that can roll

18
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:15,760
up around your wrist like those slap bracelets did you ever did you ever have

19
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:20,799
one of those dennis the slap no the ones were like oh yes yeah

20
00:01:18,479 --> 00:01:23,840
there i knew it slap bracelets

21
00:01:22,799 --> 00:01:28,640
no tcl a company known for making displays

22
00:01:26,159 --> 00:01:32,240
smartphones and tvs actually patented four other folding designs as well that

23
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:36,640
look more like the other concepts that we've seen from samsung xiaomi and

24
00:01:34,159 --> 00:01:40,240
others the phone bracelet design stands out a little maybe that's because it

25
00:01:38,159 --> 00:01:44,400
looks very similar to lenovo's concept phone from 2016. i don't know i think

26
00:01:42,159 --> 00:01:47,119
i'd prefer to just wear a smartwatch or to just like embed the phone in my

27
00:01:46,079 --> 00:01:51,040
actual skin or something you know something simple and this isn't exactly

28
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:55,040
tech news but i've been following the hype around bioware's anthem throughout

29
00:01:53,119 --> 00:02:00,799
its development and now that the game is out for some people who bought it anyway

30
00:01:58,079 --> 00:02:04,560
i can truly let myself feel the disappointment reviews are saying the

31
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:08,479
game has some really cool elements like the first few hours of combat and flying

32
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:12,480
are fun but the game feels like it was designed by executives who tried to tick

33
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:15,840
off all the boxes for game features they think the kids like nowadays if you

34
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:20,160
don't want to be thrust into the game's final mission long before you're ready

35
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:24,959
stay away from quick play and the story the main reason i was even excited for

36
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:28,879
this game is apparently a thin shadow of the quality found in mass effect and

37
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:33,360
dragon age and if you don't want to miss important cutscenes or dialogue thanks

38
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:37,840
to the game's ubiquitous loading screens forbes even recommends playing it solo

39
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:43,920
what did you do to bioware ea what did you do but people also said

40
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:49,760
stuff like this about destiny 2 when it came out so i don't know we'll see what happens it's time for quick bits brought

41
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:54,400

49
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:27,200
day a little smarter huh what's that no

50
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:32,319
i can't i'm busy doing quick bits NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce gtx 1660 ti

51
00:03:30,640 --> 00:03:36,799
has been spotted in results from the final fantasy 15 benchmark which always

52
00:03:34,879 --> 00:03:41,599
seems to come up before a major GPU launches the new card's performance is

53
00:03:38,799 --> 00:03:47,200
apparently better than the gtx 1070 and only just slightly behind the gtx titan

54
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:53,840
x although that is the maxwell titan x from four years ago still if the 1660 ti

55
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:56,000
launches at its rumored price of 279 u.s

56
00:03:53,840 --> 00:04:00,239
it would be a heck of a value i sincerely doubt that will be the price

57
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:04,959
though team green loves its green a little too much you get that green

58
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:09,519
loves it team team green they love the benjamins call

59
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:14,480
it a sign of the times samsung has said it will stop production of 1080p and 4k

60
00:04:12,159 --> 00:04:18,720
blu-ray players in the u.s following similar news from oppo previous reports

61
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:24,000
that said samsung was making a new high-end 4k blu-ray player for 2019 but

62
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:28,880
that has since been scrapped and so begins the long slow death of discs

63
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:32,720
i might be wrong but at the same time you can't very well

64
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:36,400
play frisbee with a netflix subscription to my

65
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:41,280
discs an fcc filing shows that motorola's upcoming 5g moto mod

66
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:45,919
attachment for the moto z3 has sensors other phones have sensors the

67
00:04:43,199 --> 00:04:50,240
moto z3 has sensors they're to detect whether your fingers are covering the

68
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:54,320
device's millimeter wave antenna if it detects your digits it will disable the

69
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:59,600
module that's being blocked to prevent radiation exposure except

70
00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:04,000
all 5g devices are supposed to operate within

71
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:05,600
acceptable radiation limits so

72
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:11,280
why do we need this i've been following the development of the smok z handheld Windows gaming

73
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:16,080
system for a time and a new set of videos now show that the device is

74
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:20,000
coming along the demos show the smoxy playing starcraft 2 left 4 dead and

75
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:23,360
other games pretty well it's taken them years but at least they're spending more

76
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:28,800
time on the product itself than they apparently spent on the name

77
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:31,199
smock really and microsoft knows it

78
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:34,320
screwed up the Windows 10 october update now it wants to get ahead of any

79
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:39,280
problems that might come up for future updates and i mean the future microsoft

80
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:45,120
is currently testing a Windows 10 build slated for a 2020 release so if there's

81
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:49,680
still bugs by the time that comes out i might be tempted to switch to macOS

82
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:54,240
no no and now i'm tempted to end this episode

83
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:57,759
and i must give in to temptation unfortunately

84
00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:04,240
because it's over thanks for watching guys and come back on wednesday for more

85
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:06,880
