yes yes israeli time mother
0:04
i don't want to say that that's vulgar riley time just really doesn't have the
0:07
same ring to it or appeal or any yeah
0:12
what is it what's the news about razer has unveiled the follow-up to the razer
0:15
phone late wednesday night called the razer phone 2. you know you think they'd
0:19
come like they have if they have a laptop called the blade they'd come up with another name for it like
0:24
edge slice prison shay prison shank the razor
0:28
prison shank 2. anyways the new device looks very
0:32
similar to last year's model minus the reposition dual rear cameras and the now
0:37
RGB enabled logo inside is 8 gigs of RAM
0:40
a 4 000 milliamp hour battery ip67 water resistance and vapor chamber cooling
0:45
that lets it fetch 20 to 30 percent more performance out of the snapdragon 845
0:49
system on a chip to power its true 120 hertz display razer also announced the
0:55
raiju mobile controller and the hammerhead active noise-cancelling usb-c
0:59
earbuds since the razer phone doesn't have a freaking headphone jack
1:03
oh and there's a new base model of the blade five laptop that starts at sixteen
1:07
hundred dollars instead of twenty two hundred and a limited edition mercury
1:11
white blade they're normally black microsoft made a surface in black and
1:15
now razer made a blade in white that they switched that's cute
1:20
the razer sharpened toothbrush prison shank 2 ships october 22nd for 800 bucks
1:26
that's a tongue twister that's probably why they didn't name it that it makes a
1:29
little more more sense samsung also introduced a new phone the galaxy a9 the
1:34
world's first phone with four rear-facing cameras in addition to the
1:39
main camera there's an ultrawide cam with a 120 degree field of view a
1:43
telephoto camera with two times optimal optical zoom and a depth camera which
1:48
just serves to assist with portrait mode photos but what about another camera for
1:53
like just fun photos you know i wish they had one of those that's the selfie
1:57
cam while the cameras are real fancy the inside is more mid-tier with a
2:02
snapdragon 660 six gigs of RAM and a 3800 milliamp hour battery for 599 euros
2:09
it's unsure whether it's even coming to north america at this point but what is
2:12
probably coming to north america is samsung's folding phone which is
2:15
according to samsung's head of mobile dj co
2:19
sorry going to be like a tablet when it's open and then regular phone size
2:23
when it's folded co also suggested we could get a look at the device during
2:27
samsung's developer conference on november 7th hopefully he performs a
2:32
quick set there too
2:36
enough yeah enough riley yeah
2:39
and facebook has given an update on that big data breach from last week turns out
2:44
30 million people had their accounts affected not 50 million
2:48
that's a huge relief i trust facebook again 15 million of
2:53
those users had their name and contact details compromised while a further 14
2:58
million had more details like username gender location relationship status
3:02
religion hometown and current city birthday education work frequently
3:06
visited places and more accessed by hackers and then another 1 million users
3:10
didn't have any info access you can check if your account was affected by
3:14
visiting facebook's help center link will be in the description and you can prevent this from happening again by
3:19
living in a cave in the mountains but if you live in a cave you won't get to look
3:23
at screens all day unfortunately that's a reality for most of us but fear not
3:27
that's why i'm wearing prospect glasses by spectrum
3:32
electronic screens emit high energy blue light that can damage your eyes and make
3:35
it harder to fall asleep prospect glasses block this light while keeping
3:39
colors as true as possible a lot of people use apps like flux and twilight
3:43
to reduce blue light but software doesn't actually have the same type of
3:46
filtering effect that actual glasses do prospect glasses have solid build
3:51
quality and a one year warranty and there are many styles to choose from so
3:54
you don't have to look like the most hardcore gamer in the world
3:58
unless you want to and you can save 10 using the offer code Linus
4:03
at the link below so do that on to
4:08
the quick bits a leak originating from apple's iOS 12.1 beta has pointed to a
4:13
new ipad pro model with a possibly Thunderbolt enabled usb type-c connector
4:18
it's unclear whether this would replace apple's lightning connector or be there
4:22
in addition to it but it's about freaking time apple got on board with
4:25
usb-c either way i'm angry about this
4:29
i have no apple products so i don't know why we're going to die
4:33
by cold robot claws and it's been confirmed now because boston dynamics
4:38
released new videos this week of its dog-like spot robot navigating a
4:42
construction site with ease and of its humanoid atlas robot freaking
4:47
leaping over logs and parkouring over
4:50
boxes yeah i know like
4:53
like it's like robot version of the office parkour bar door barcode that was
4:58
the joke microsoft has stopped supporting the apple tv version of
5:01
minecraft and it's been pulled from the apple store no
5:06
no no
5:09
why magic leap showed off a virtual ai
5:13
assistant called micah that you could interact with in ar the demo looked
5:17
pretty compelling and attendees at the event that it was announced at said she
5:21
seemed like a real person making realistic eye contact and mirroring
5:24
their facial expressions would you use google assistant more or less if it was
5:28
a real person looking through your eyes into the depths of your soul
5:33
use it for what oh oh
5:36
cooler master launched the control pad a module with 24 mechanical keys that are
5:40
also pressure sensitive meaning they can detect gradual pressure being applied so
5:44
you can walk in a game by pressing lightly then go full speed by pressing
5:48
down all the way honestly i don't know why these haven't gone more mainstream
5:51
but i guess this is one going it's happening baby it's happening now and a company called power
5:56
a has put officially licensed wireless gamecube controllers for nintendo switch
6:01
up for pre-order presumably for use with super smash bros ultimate but if you're
6:06
hardcore enough to want a gamecube controller you're also probably hardcore
6:10
enough to want it to be wired so there's no latency
6:13
anyways that's all the tech news for this week my friends but don't worry there's actually another week starting
6:18
like right away so we'll have more on monday uh it's nice how
6:23
the weeks kind of work out like that like one ends and then it's just
6:27
right in like that's our time oh time see you later
