Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Pixel 3 Rumors? Ask MKBHD V27!”.
Fortnite, do you play fortnite’s a ranking fortnite you play games, you ever played fortnite, i’m dead foreign hey. What is up guys mkbhd here and welcome back to ask mkbhd number 27. it’s april and it’s definitely getting nicer out. Finally, so we’re going to take advantage of that and shoot outside here for a little bit, the phone’s kind of trippy you’re, probably familiar the shirt’s, also kind of trippy, that’s new.
The link is below and i asked you guys on twitter and in the subreddit what you wanted to know. These are your questions. So kareem wants to know. Have you started training with empire, yet can’t wait to meet you again when you come to montreal? Yes, so uh for those of you who don’t know the pro team and ultimate that i’m playing for this year is the new york empire. Our home opener is tomorrow against uh toronto rush, but we play up and down the east coast all season long, so we’ll play in philadelphia in our home state of new york.
We have ottawa montreal toronto and washington dc if you’re in any of those cities i’ll post a schedule below come out to a game, come say, hi, so ricky says he recently put down a deposit on a mission e congrats uh. Do you think porsche evs will eventually supplant tesla, so the word supplant, if you look, it up means to replace and i don’t think anyone’s gon na be replacing teslas anytime soon. I don’t know what it is with this obsession about like the tesla killer or replacing tesla, but a new electric skateboard company can come along. They don’t replace boosted their competition.
A new camera company comes along, they don’t replace canon. We have canon nikon panasonic. All these guys, so a new electric car company can come along or a new electric car can come along and not replace tesla and they compete and, at the end of the day, that’s better for us all right.
So we’re seeing i’m seeing a lot of questions about pixel 3. It’S coming out later this year. We want to know what that new camera is going to be like what they do about the screen.
Will it have a notch? So the thing i think to remember with the new pixel, which stems back to the nexus days, is it’ll just be no matter what the hardware ends up. Looking like it’s basically a vessel for google’s new software, so google’s new os, whatever i guess – it’ll probably be peppermint, but whatever the newest android os ends up being google’s new ai. Their new software fixes all of that stuff. It’S a showcase for developers and us to use that software.
Now it is nice that at the end of the day, we can buy this phone and they do put some focus into the hardware. But i wouldn’t be surprised if it ends up looking a lot like some other phones this year, with the exception of the camera. We have this new p20 pro, and the review of this is coming soon, with three cameras on the back and a lot of phones coming out now have two cameras. At least some more are coming out with three but the prowess of the pixel 2 and the whole success of this phone, which is the incredible single camera, is the fact that it did all the things that you used to need two or three cameras to do. Well, in one it did edge detection extremely well for portrait mode photos. It has great color, great dynamic range so having another single camera on pixel 3. I think would emphasize that it’ll continue to do all these crazy things with software on a single camera, so it won’t look like other phones in that way, but i wouldn’t be surprised if it doesn’t have a headphone jack again if it has a notch, if it Has a similar look to other phones, we’ve seen that would not shock me at all. It’S still a vessel for the software.
The only frustrating part about that is, it makes me want other phones. It makes me want the google play edition stuff back. It makes me want to see other phones with that same pure, fast, updated software experience. I would love to see a note 8 or a note.
9 google play edition. I would love to see a huawei p20 pro google play edition, but that’s never going to happen. So it’s just frustrating all right so which product has given you the most value for the money. I thought about this for a little bit and my answer is the shark slider? S1. It’S a slider, it’s a camera slider! I buy a lot of products, but video gear tends to be pretty pretty frequent and i bought this many years ago. So we tend to we roll through a lot of video gear.
We upgrade things all the time it’s kind of like when you rebuild the boat. After you replace all the parts, is it the same boat, but this one slider i’ll try to give you the original date that i purchased it. I haven’t upgraded. I’Ve used it since i got it. Many different cameras have been on it.
Many different other things have passed through, but that slider the shark s1 has been amazing. It shot so many different subjects in so many different ways and, to be honest, it’s a super, simple tool: it’s not a motorized slider, it’s just two rails and some weights and just moves the camera back and forth. But that’s something i’ve gotten over the years.
A lot of value from right – i like this one so on dope tech, i feel like you’re slowly killing the youtube culture, which is cheap and easy to make by using super advanced equipment that robotic arm is too expensive and rare, and the red cameras and gimbals. So that’s kind of the point of dope tech, so there are a ton of other product reviews and things where i’m evaluating a product you might want to buy in videos and that’s fun. But dope tech is actually leveraging this audience that we have here to get an inside look at bleeding edge technology that you may never otherwise be able to see so like supercars, robotic arms things like that companies are actually willing to open their doors and show them For the first time to dope tech to get you guys, a look at that, so it’s almost like the you want to find the less common stuff you’re never going to buy that robotic arm, but having it in a video and actually showing it with. You is cool to see so that’s dope, tech hope that makes sense, and we also have other playlists and other videos and all the reviews of things that we’ll actually be buying.
But dopetech is just your glimpse behind the curtain, all right. So what other two color combinations, two color combinations do, you think, are dope other than black and red. I have to pick two uh.
I think i think red red and gray is pretty cool. Um i’ll, give a nod to black and yellow hey mkbhd. What’S the possibility of having a port free device in the future, no headphones, no charging port completely wireless actually do think. In fact i’ll say i will expect this to eventually happen kind of like the same way we’re trying to get rid of bezels. Now we end up with a notch, because there’s certain technologies that haven’t worked their way down yet and we can’t completely get rid of it, but we will soon same thing with ports.
Wireless charging’s, not that great. Yet some phones have it. But when you do get it great, you can get rid of the charging port. We already got rid of the headphone jack and there’s really not that many other ports on phones.
So i think you will see a portless phone, so teslanomics asks why get the roadster? If not the founder series, i can speak to that um, so tesla products for those unfamiliar the founders series stuff is always maxed out and also always red. It’S always a founder series red which is not like the most vibrant red. So basically the short answer is: if you want to get any other spec or any different color, you don’t get the founders edition, so even like the the multi-coat red. That is a lot brighter and different from the founders edition red, i think, looks better.
So you can still get a maxed out car in a different color. Also, it looks pretty good in that sleek sort of a space, gray look and i think, staying under the radar, not getting a red car might actually be better, so yeah. I think that’s why you wouldn’t get founders edition. So when are you going to link up with the 368 crew in new york city, we need to see you in one of uh casey’s, new tech tuesdays.
Honestly, i’m definitely down. Tech. Tuesday seems like a great way for a collab to happen, so we can probably do that sometime, but either way. That’S where i’m going to end it uh thanks to the noise situation. I think we’ve also set a record for longest record time to make this happen. Without interruptions, but that’s okay, thank you for your questions. If you have any others feel free to drop them in the comments section below i’ll, hang out and answer some of those too uh. But thanks for watching talk to you guys the next one peace that stuff so that’ll, be the focus of the pixel, no matter what it looks like.
Oh, my god gets into the hardware, but it’s not the main but google’s, but google’s whole software prowess with the pixel 2. That’S too loud, isn’t it but google’s whole. It’S when i like make a sound, which was the incredible camera. It was all the only frustrating part of that is that it makes me want other phones with stock android.
We just saw that truck. Go that way, all right so which but i’ll try to put the original date. It’S the same truck again.
Are you lost? Do you need a map? Do you need a map? The red camera is and gimbal what i feel like you’re, slowly, killing the uh. What other two color combinations do, you think are dope uh, so the roadster yeah, if i want, i think we set the record for longest longest, uh blooper reel of all time. That’S a great place to do that.
Yeah, i’m down! .
