00:00The mic right underneath the camera haven't done one of these
00:17In a minute, oh wow matching wallpapers. Oh, what if I can?
00:22That's awesome. Hey, what's up guys? I'm KBHD here. You guys just heard that intro music shout out to 20s. Yl
00:27He is doing 36 new songs or sharing 36 new songs in 36 days
00:33That was one of them. They've all been pretty sick. They're on his YouTube channel
00:37So I'll link it below check him out one of the most underrated nicest guys in music good stuff. So here we are
00:43I'm taking a page out of Peter McKinnon's playbook
00:45Which was just his tweet last night that you can do a Q&A while still practicing social distancing
00:51So that's what I'm gonna do. The studio is empty here. I'll take a video here
00:55We see an empty MKBHD studio in 8k on the Galaxy S20 Ultra
01:02That's what you guys look like
01:03Look at that focus
01:05So I've made the choice that at least for the foreseeable future
01:07We'll stay on the safe side and make sure no one has to travel to get to the studio
01:10so I'm here solo, but I asked on Twitter what you guys wanted to know and
01:15It's time for Q&A
01:16Also, I'm just realizing that
01:18Tagging him in my tweet my Q&A tweet means all of your thousands of questions that are responses to it
01:24Also got sent to him
01:27Sorry about that Peter
01:29Maybe he'll use some of your questions for his video. Who knows anyway, I just want to say
01:33I know I haven't spoken up a lot about the virus and all the turmoil that is surrounded it in the world
01:40Mainly because I'm not an expert. I'm not a healthcare professional or a doctor
01:45So I'm getting all my information from others as you should be you shouldn't get information from me. So I'm in the US
01:51I'm listening to the CDC. I'm listening to trusted experts, but if I could echo their best advice
01:57Wash your hands
01:59Sanitize them stay socially distanced
02:01That's the smart thing to do to try to flatten the curve and prevent the spread of the virus
02:06I think I'll leave any links in the description that may be helpful to those of you who are just wondering about it
02:11But generally be responsible take care of yourself to take care of others. So that being said, let's see if you guys have any good
02:18Questions on Twitter. Oh, yeah. Okay right off the bat. Did you get any threats from Escobar Inc?
02:24No, I haven't gotten any communication from them at all, which is probably the story with a lot of people now
02:30There was a quick update
02:32Briefly, their website was down and a lot of people were sending it to me the night after I made my video screenshots of it
02:39I tried going to their website. It was also down
02:42But then like a half a day later it came back and it looks like they're still taking orders
02:48So if you were considering ordering one don't obviously, oh, okay. Interesting. What are your total watch hours from your viewers?
02:56I think I can just look that up actually so the number is seven point four
03:01bill
03:02billion seven point four billion
03:05minutes
03:06In the last 12 years of videos. Hey Google, what's seven point four billion minutes in hours?
03:12Seven billion four hundred million minutes is equal to one point two three three times ten to the eight hours
03:18Hey Google, what's seven point four billion minutes in days?
03:23Seven billion four hundred million minutes is equal to five point one three nine times ten to the six days. Hey Google
03:28What's seven point four billion minutes in?
03:32Years, here's a summary from the website research maniacs calm
03:36Let's start with how you would write seven point four billion with numbers only
03:40One seven billion four hundred million and this is how you would write seven point four billion with letters only two
03:47Hey, Siri, what's seven point four billion minutes in years?
03:53fourteen thousand and sixty nine point eight years
03:55Nice. Okay. What do you most want from the new iPhones this year for me?
04:00It's night mode is a super cool feature to have on your phone. Cool
04:04Yeah, I think there's just a couple of main things I want out of
04:08iPhone 12 for 2020 number one. It's got to be high refresh rate display. I'm hoping for 120 Hertz
04:14This is something that you know
04:16This is gonna be an expensive phone when it comes out and if you spend this much money on your phone
04:21Having high refresh rate seems like mandatory. So 120 Hertz screen then two
04:26I would love to have USB type-c while I know it's not the most likely thing to happen
04:31I would really love to get rid of some of my last non USB type-c
04:35Chargers and maybe come with a fast charger in the box and then three just an overall generally
04:40Updated design get rid of this huge notch about the front
04:44While I know it's housing a bunch of the face ID sensors
04:47Actually that ties into the other thing I would change which is adding touch ID back
04:51I think Apple tends to be that company that waits to do something correctly instead of being first on the bandwagon
04:57And we've got a bunch of under glass fingerprint sensors now
05:00So I would love to see them do just a giant bottom third of the screen huge
05:05Thumb press and that just reads your fingerprint touch ID is back on these phones and then you can get rid of the huge notch
05:10so new design
05:12touch ID under the glass USB type-c and
05:16Just a generally much better screen. Okay, so which selfie camera do you think in a smartphone is most practical?
05:23They have a one plus 7 pro with the pop-up camera and they want to know my stance on cutouts
05:27Notches and pop-up cameras, so I would almost make that like a tier list
05:32So you got you have a through F for whatever and F is like not having one
05:37but D tier for me honestly is like if you have a thick bezel which in
05:422020 is not a good look or if you just have like a giant
05:45notch and no real reason for a giant notch and C tier would be like a
05:51Reasonable notch or you know the teardrop notches that that could be in C tier then B tier is your hole punch cutouts
05:58So the small ones, you know what you got on like galaxy s20
06:02Whether it's in the corner or the center not a huge deal for me
06:05I think I like it more in the center
06:06But generally they take up the least amount of space and they don't interrupt the content as much so I'll say a tier is the
06:13hole punch cutout but my other hot take that I shared on Twitter before was I really like pop-up cameras as
06:18An a tier selfie camera the main biggest possible downside for it would be it's a moving part
06:24But we haven't really seen anyone reach that moving part limit yet, which is great and then possibly less waterproofing
06:31But even some of the phones with pop-up cameras have a little seal around the bottom that dramatically improves water resistance
06:37So it's not the end of the world for water and dust if you have a pop-up camera and then there's all the benefits you
06:41Get a full screen display. You don't have a selfie camera when you don't need it
06:46It pops up fast enough to do face unlock if you want to do that
06:49But you probably don't have to and best of all when it's retracted inside your device
06:53It's being blocked so you can't have someone hack into and using your front-facing camera when you don't need them using it
07:00so a little security advantage to so a tier for me is the pop-up cameras and
07:04The punch-outs and if we had like a future possible s tier that would of course be getting the selfie camera
07:11Behind the glass invisible, so it's always available, but never interrupting the content, but we don't really have those yet
07:18Maybe that's something we could see in the next iPhone if the tech is ready
07:21But that's the question is would they be would they be first to some tech like that? Probably not
07:26We'll probably see it on the way to the next next iPhone. All right, this guy just tweeted Brownlee
07:30Just check out this just check this out, and it's the TCL rollable phone concept, okay
07:37So I've had my eye on this and I've thought about it a lot since we first saw it for those who don't know
07:42TCL in New York City not too long ago. I wish I got to be there, but they showed a bunch of concept foldable
07:49Smartphone modular designs just because they can so while there were a lot of working phones technically there as far as I know none of
07:55These were actually slated to come out as real phones, but there was everything from
08:00this this triple folding display that makes like a W shape and you can
08:05Fold it up like a xylophone and it's got three panes when it's open just wild stuff like that
08:11TCL figured they just make a bunch of them and be first to it and if they get good response
08:16Maybe they'll make them later
08:17But the one that really caught my eye and we talked about this on the waveform podcast was this
08:22Rollable like scroll like display so and this one wasn't even a real this working screen
08:28It was just paper like a fake screen on top
08:30But the idea was still there that you could have a regular sized smartphone with a full size display
08:36Looking totally normal that you use on a regular basis
08:38And when you want to expand it to a bigger screen
08:40You just pull it out and from behind this extra screen appears and now you have this larger display
08:47That you just peeled out like a scroll actually now that I think about it
08:50It was really difficult to explain on the podcast, but seeing it and seeing some demos of it
08:56Really got the gears turning like maybe
08:59Foldable isn't the only way to use these flexible displays to put a bigger screen in a smaller form factor this whole rolling thing
09:07I don't know if it's not possible yet with a screen on it, or if it would just damage the screen too much
09:12But I don't know I would like to see an actual working device
09:16Do that so this really got the gears turning because of course for me the whole point of having these big
09:22Flexible screens is hey big screen small pocket fold it up it fits
09:27That's that's the general point so the triple screen one doesn't really make as much sense to me
09:31Just because that's still gonna be a huge
09:33Thick boy phone when you try to fold it and put it in your pocket. It looks cool, but it's also not super useful
09:40That's form over function, but this rollable screen one looked interesting and I'll pass that actually to you guys in the comment section
09:46would you rather have a
09:49Rollable display or a foldable display just on what you've seen on that foldable display concept all right someone asked
09:56How is the new studio coming along also advice for an upcoming tech youtuber cheers?
10:01Yeah, the studio is coming along great
10:04I posted a couple updates on Twitter and Instagram so far if you want to check those out
10:07I would go shoot down there now if I wasn't trying specifically to be social distancing responsibly
10:13We're gonna have some blackout shades in there and a lot of blinds. We're gonna have some new light switches
10:17We're gonna have fiber internet in there gigabit internet
10:21That's pretty sick, and I just acoustic treatment is the number one thing for us to worry about for the entire space so slowly
10:28But surely all right here's a here's a potential sad one or great one
10:32Opinions on the upcoming Canon EOS r5 and would you purchase it?
10:36I want to just say yes, so a lot of us camera nerds have been following this, but if you haven't there are rumors and
10:42Partially confirmed rumors now that Canon is working on a new EOS are called the r5. It's gonna be a pro level camera
10:48It's gonna have 8k video with advanced autofocus
10:52And it's gonna have all these pro features and be an amazing video camera
10:55And that's about all they've told us is that that's what they're working on matter of fact Peter McKinnon's probably seen more of this than
11:01Anyone he's held one and talked to Canon about it, but generally I want to be excited about it
11:07But I also know Canon and if you followed Canon stuff. You know there's always a catch
11:12There's always a great camera all the great specs
11:16But this horrible thing like I have a Canon EOS are love that camera for a lot of stuff great video quality
11:22But huge crop and this has happened with other cameras the 1d x mark 3 is awesome, but proprietary memory cards this happens a lot
11:30I'm nervous about what that hitch is gonna be for the EOS r5 is it gonna be?
11:38$20,000 or is it gonna be record limit at 8k or overheating problems or crop or autofocus?
11:44What is what is it gonna be so I'm hesitant to get excited about it, but kind of like the red Komodo
11:49We don't really know that much about it, so I'll keep my fingers crossed all right
11:53I'm gonna end it with actually I had some questions for you guys that I polled you on on Twitter two things
12:00One was just straight up how many of you guys have a case on your phone you might have seen this in one of the
12:04Last videos and if I was guessing I would have said
12:07Something maybe a little over 5050. I know cases are popular, but surely not everyone has a case right, but just of this audience
12:1680% of you have a case on your phone, which means in the rest of the world
12:20I'm sure it's even higher that was pretty interesting, and then the other question
12:24I asked you guys was what is your phone volume set to is it volume on
12:29silent or vibrate and
12:31I
12:33Literally never have my volume on as far as my ringtone
12:35I don't even know what my ringtone sounds like most of the time and so far the poll is running right now on Twitter
12:40But so far vibrate is winning, but that could change as the rest of the votes fill in
12:46But I just I don't know I like learning about these behaviors that I sort of take for granted
12:50And then actually ask you guys about and figure out the answer is totally wild like why did 25% you have your volume on all?
12:55The time why I don't get it. What why is it always on so anyway? That's been it. Thank you for the Q&A
13:01Hopefully you guys are staying safe out there and by out there
13:04I mean in there because you're staying home, and yeah, I guess let's just let's just let these internet videos be our little
13:10Safe haven for entertainment while we're you know self quarantining basically and keeping the world safe
13:17Thanks for watching catch you guys the next one pace
