Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Techlinked is OVER! (for a week)”.
Okay, I got ta transform into my news alter-ego or super news. We’Re gon na have to have super a lot of news, because there’s gon na be no tech linked anymore for one week, everyone’s getting fired, I’m getting fired, I’m kind of loud and obnoxious Riley’s getting fired for not advancing the prompter, because I don’t have my remote Today, and what’s actually happening, though, is the entire lioness media group crew is going on a company bonding experience, we’re calling it work patient 2.0. It’S a corporate retreat into the wilderness where there is no tech, and there is no news but we’ll be back on September 10th, just in time to make fun of Apple’s new products that they’ll be announcing. On September, the 12th see that’s a segue mmm. It’S tight yep, the company teased the event with a big circle that looks like their new office building or maybe they’ll unveil a round Apple watch. Actually, probably not. We know that because the Apple watch series 4 has been leaked, with new edge to edge display super information, dense watch face and what looks like an extra microphone hole. It’S revolutionary what images have also leaked of a larger and smaller version of what is apparently going to be the iPhone XS? Is that 10s? Is it like extra small? Is it like X in excess like a band? This is a very confusing there’s very confusing thing. So one of them is five point, eight inches and the other six point five and then there’s maybe also a new version of the regular iPhone 10. Let’S just hope that September 12 clears all this up or doesn’t because that’s better for jokes, that Apple’s expense but wait. We can’t let Apple have all of the leaks. The Google pixel three has finally leaked after its larger sibling. The pixel 3 XL was leaked to kingdom.
Come yes, my friends, it’s amazing. The boat even got there with all the leaks and praise the phone God’s. The pixel 3 does not have a notch, so high fives, everyone know you missed it.
You were too slow. The pixel 3 does, though, have dual front-facing cat prints. Screenshots of the phone specs also revealed that it’s packing a 21 60 by 1080 display a 29 15 milliamp hour battery and a snapdragon 845 cpu an 8 excuse me, 4 gigs of ram hooble is holding their own unveiling event on September, the 9th.
So we won’t have to wait too long to get all the official details, but man what a relief is that a leaking joke, wow, that’s kind of crass and German tech event. Aoife 2018 is still rolling on with lenovo announcing so many laptops that it makes my tummy tingle. Actually, that’s, probably the spicy soup I had for lunch.
So first off is the ThinkPad x1 extreme. This is the first 15-inch x1, but still pretty thin and light at under 4 pounds with a 6 core 8th, gen Core i7 processor and up to 64 gigs of RAM. You don’t need that much power lenovo also showed off the yoga C. 630.
The first Windows laptop powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 that will reportedly get it 25 hours of battery life using the lower power Windows 10 s. But wait you want an even less usable laptop than that. Well, the Lenovo yoga book C 930 has got you covered. It takes the touchpad of the original and replaces it with an e-ink display, which I guess is better, but there’s almost certainly better machines that you can get for like a thousand bucks, like maybe a Seuss’s new mid-range Zen books. The company has gone the Dell XPS route and shrunk the bezels down drastically wow.
That is a lot of laptops. I guess the International floppy disk assembly 2018 is the event to see laptop launches. That is not what it is short for, but you know what is short, this segue to audible, it’s time for bits, bits that don’t fit on screwdrivers, but they’re fast brought to you today by audible. So let me tell you guys, audibly, but you should go to audible.com, slash tech linked to start a 30-day free trial and get your first audio book for free audiobooks go great with other activities like hiking road, tripping or pretending that your work you’re, full and undivided Attention I’d recommend, listening to dark matter, a mind-bending sci-fi story complete with doppelgangers and quantum mechanics by the author of the wayward Pines trilogy. It’S probably gon na be a movie eventually. So why don’t you be one of the cool kids and get out ahead of the curve and listen to it? First start today at audible.com, slash tech linked or if you live in the u.s.
text, tech linked to 500 500. Why is he wearing that glove? No one will ever know onto the quark barks Huawei was also a tee for 2018, where they unveiled the Chiron 980, the first mobile chip using a 7 nanometer manufacturing process based on arms cortex, a 76 architecture. It also has a neural processing unit inside for AI tasks. Now that literally everything has to have AI tacked on to it.
Somehow, speaking of AI wall, we also made a smart speaker called the AI cube that isn’t a cube. It’S just kind of a blatant Google home clone, except that it has Alexa instead of Google assistant, so like the AI is short for like Alexa. Instead also, it doubles as a router. So that’s cool. A bunch of phones showed up at Aoife to the sony.
Xperia x said three features: a shiny, new OLED display the Xiaomi mix 3 adds a sliding selfie camera section like the Oppo find X, which I’m actually still working on. My review of that thing that ridiculous and the honor play is a gaming phone with haptic feedback and the huawei mate 10 lite is a large mid-range phone with a big battery, but also the pixel 3. It does have a nudged. I mention that already. I hope I did.
Researchers at Queen’s University have built a tablet called the magic scroll that cute. It rolls into a cylindrical form, thanks to its flexible touchscreen, but, what’s neat is it can also be controlled with dials on either side of the device man. I missed. The good old days when you’d read things on papyrus and stone tablet suits. That really brings me back to my child, really an old joke.
Wow. You know what you know, what those jokes are getting old audio company Harman Kardon worked with Netgear to make a smart speaker the or be voice that also functions as a Wi-Fi repeater, that’s kind of neat, I guess – and California State Assembly has approved a bill that Would prohibit throttling or blocking of Internet traffic by service providers if the Senate approves the bill will be signed into law, which could act as an example for other states to follow bringing net neutrality back to life, despite its crippling like curb stomping it got by the Us federal government – this would be good or not so good. Depending on your position me, I don’t have a position. You might say that I’m net neutral, that’s not true, true, neutral to neutral dragon lordy. What’S not neutral is the fact that this episode is over.
That sucks the big one, especially because there is no tech linked next week I mean, maybe we could just we could upload one on Wednesday if just like, it’s peanut butter, jelly time, peanut butter just like for like six minutes of this, you think wait. Yes, wait. Yes, wait. Yes, wait! Yes, no day, he goes there.
You go big. .
