Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Ask MKBHD V6! 4K on a Smartphone?!”.
Hey what is up guys mkbhd here and i’m not using my main camera right now. My main camera is away from me for this entire week, while it’s being sent in to upgrade so i’m going to get that back next week and a whole bunch of videos are due for when i get the camera back. But i wasn’t gon na. Let that stop me from making a video. So this is a quick ask me video. I asked a bunch of questions as i usually do on twitter.
We got some good ones, we’ll answer it, not the main camera, but still crispy anyway, a friend and i are thinking about starting a tech channel. What are your recommendations for us? Do it no, but seriously the best way to get into something, especially if you’re just getting started is to just dive in head. First, a lot of people worry too much about like the equipment or the production quality that you want to achieve with the very first videos you make, but honestly, the first videos of pretty much any channel.
If you look backwards, including mine, are like terrible. So don’t worry about the equipment, you have to start with, just use the smartphone or whatever you have and just do it are you on snapchat and if you are what’s your username, yes, i am, and the username is mkbhd so creative. Have you ever strived to make something better on your channel because of someone trolling you about something in your work? Maybe not trolling, but i definitely pay attention to the constructive criticism that i get, which is a benefit of having people who actually watch the videos. I make a lot of people have this like mentality of like i’ll, just ignore the haters they’re just hating for no reason, but a lot of times there’s a little nugget of truth in what you might think is just hate, and that actually can be the best Criticism or feedback you can get to make stuff better so again, maybe not trolling making the stuff better.
But a lot of your comments affect the next article i make. What are you most excited to see at apple’s event, so i will be there, i’m actually flying out to the event the day after i upload this video and a lot of the stuff we’re expecting to see at the event is like it’s already been leaked. So a new apple tv, we may see a new ipad pro with a larger display and, of course, we’re definitely expecting to see the announcement of the new smartphones, so the iphone 6s and the iphone 6s plus, if that’s what they keep naming it and i’m excited To see the new cameras in these, of course, the design of the s series always tends to be the same as the previous, so upgraded internals exciting, but i really want to see how good the new cameras are.
What are your feelings on the new google logo? You know what i actually like it. I think it’s pretty clean, pretty simple, obviously, to the casual viewer. It just looks like the same exact text in a different font and that’s fine uh, what’s funny is actually verizon redid their logo.
Like a couple of days later, i’m sure they were developing it and spending millions on it at the same time. But it’s also a pretty simple, clean redesign with the smaller check mark, and i think it’s fine, i like them. That doesn’t mean verizon.
That does not mean that i want to see it on any home buttons anytime soon. I’M just saying i appreciate a crisp. Clean logo. Explain the sport you play alright. So ultimate frisbee is a team sport. It’S sort of a combination of like soccer basketball, maybe football and a bunch of other stuff.
So there are seven on the field for each team. At a time you can throw off like football sort of like a football kickoff and then, as you play, you pass it down the field to each other. Until you score in the end zone, you can run around freely during the point, but once you catch the disc, then you have to stop you’re not allowed to run with it. That’S a travel like basketball, but you can move and pivot until you throw, and then you can start running again. You have 10 seconds with the disc before you have to get rid of it, or else it’s a turnover at a high level. These turnovers are a big deal, which is why you’ll see players go up and over and around and fly everywhere to avoid turning it over, which makes it an awesome sport to watch to play and something that could be pretty dope in the olympics. Why does the oneplus 2 not have nfc alright? So the official reason given by oneplus is that people didn’t use nfc in the oneplus one, so they just didn’t include it. I mentioned in my full review video of the oneplus 2 that i think that could have been included anyway. Maybe it would have cost 10 extra dollars on the bill of materials to eventually have that in the final price.
But i think oneplus as much as they don’t like to admit it is very focused on cost cutting and they wanted to get that magical. Sub. 400 price, so they decided not to include nfc and it’s also not able to be retrofitted later. So that’s why it doesn’t have it.
What’S your most favorite game of all time, i almost said nba 2k, but it’s actually need for speed. Most wanted that game on pc. I made one or two gaming videos like ever on my channel, and one of them was just me playing that game uh. It was like in the middle of high school that was one of the most fun games i’ve ever played.
I think it’s the best need for speed game ever made, and it was a lot of fun need for speed most wanted. Why haven’t you become a member of vessel and will you in the future so vessel, for those who don’t know is a platform for content creators mostly youtubers, to host their content exclusively for a while before they put it on youtube and they have it behind a Paywall on vessel, so they can be rewarded for that. I don’t really have a reason to do that with my videos. I think most of them actually benefit from going directly to everyone for free, and i also benefit a lot from you guys commenting on the videos immediately, so it wouldn’t really make sense for me.
I don’t think i’m going to do that anytime soon. What would a smartphone look like if it were designed for a t-rex so probably like fit around their chest and would have like a support where it would be like two buttons on either side for their claws? Probably, and like i don’t know, it would probably be a pressure sensitive screen. The nokia 3310 recently had its anniversary. What past piece of tech gives you the most nostalgic feeling? I have two answers for this number one: the original motorola droid.
That was a phone that i waited a long time to get when it first came out. The commercials for it since i was on verizon were really tempting and when i finally got it, i was pumped, and i made several videos about it and the other thing number two uh fun fact: the the first piece of tech that i ever really got that I bought with my own money was the first generation ipod touch, and this was before i had a youtube channel. I wanted to unbox it. I was going to go through and set it up and customize in all sorts of ways: jailbreak it uh and then the next day at school it got stolen. So that never happened that i didn’t yeah. Not that’s not really a fun fact why hasn’t apple implemented, touch screens in all their macs honestly, it’s mostly because mac os 10 is not finger friendly.
It’S not touch screen built! That’S why ipads all run ios and not mac, os 10. and honestly, if you think about it, if you think of like an imac right now, if it was touch screen, enabled you just have this big glossy fingerprint covered wobbly screen on a hinge? I just feel like that, wouldn’t be comfortable to type on or use anyway, so i don’t expect that anytime soon. What are your thoughts on the xperia z5 premium? Alright, so just to get it out the way. I know that it’s been a while, since i’ve made a video about a sony smartphone, but this is going to be the one to change that for sure the sony. Xperia z5 has three variants: the compact, the regular z5 and the z5 premium and the premium. If you haven’t heard has a bunch of new things about it, new materials, a new back, a new camera, but it also has a 4k display.
I called it i said later like in this year. We would see a 4k display on a smartphone and we’re seeing it already uh yeah. I want to see it and i can’t wait to get my hands on it. I want to review it.
I want to compare it to other quad hd displays and all sorts of other stuff, so yeah uh sony if you’re listening to this, when is your setup? Tour? 2015.. Alright! So there’s always a lot of questions about when’s. The next setup tour happening uh. I usually say that the next setup tour will happen when there’s a new setup.
So this setup is the same as it was in the last setup tour. But when i do move or when i change places like i’ve said i would previously uh, that is when i’m going to be making a new set of tour videos. So that’s that, are you worried about okc, taking out your clippers next season? You know what i’m honestly not and the thing is.
I realize that oklahoma city is going to have a healthy russell westbrook and a healthy kevin durant for this upcoming season and that’s one of the hardest hitting one-two punches in basketball. But the reason why the clippers were basically doomed to failure at some point last season is because they weren’t deep. They had a great starting five, but then their bench tapered off really quickly, and i see the same problem for oklahoma city.
Their starting five is going to be great, but the clippers have a massive bench now this year they built up in an a-plus off-season. I would say i think this is the year, if any, for the clippers to at least go to the finals. What drove you to get into the whole youtube thing well, for me, i’ve always been into tech. Basically, as long as i can remember – and the other thing is, i have this memory of like running around the house with a camcorder.
This is a long time ago with, like a camcorder taking random videos of things and then watching back the videos that i made and just being like. Damn that’s cool that i could like see what i just made. Even though it was a tape recorder – and i couldn’t edit it or anything, but i’ve always been into video for that reason too, so video tech, tech, video youtube tech channel just kind of worked out. Do you miss having a face? You know what i didn’t think we were gon na talk about this man. .
