00:57:29 ◼   ► a long period of time that you could use them for a while and then the [TS]

00:57:32 ◼   ► irritations would really get to you and I feel like this is more trouble than [TS]

00:57:35 ◼   ► it's really worth and so I am keenly aware of the deficiencies that can exist [TS]

00:57:41 ◼   ► in stylized that's why I wanted to watch this video very closely and there were [TS]

00:57:47 ◼   ► two things that I picked up on the first thing that concerns me is there was a [TS]

00:57:51 ◼   ► lot of hover hand in the video so I couldn't help but notice that in the [TS]

00:57:56 ◼   ► Apple promo 1 [TS]

00:57:58 ◼   ► almost everybody who was drawing something like they had their hands just [TS]

00:58:01 ◼   ► above the iPad right hand was not touching the iPad sometimes it would be [TS]

00:58:08 ◼   ► like 80 percent of the shots it was a hover hand maneuver of someone holding [TS]

00:58:11 ◼   ► their hand over and dry and then the second thing was even in the promo [TS]

00:58:17 ◼   ► videos you could see that there was some lag between the tip of the Apple pencil [TS]

00:58:23 ◼   ► and the line on the screen now not a lot of lag not much compared to stuff before [TS]

00:58:28 ◼   ► but some lag [TS]

00:58:30 ◼   ► you know and so these things are a little bit of a cause for concern for me [TS]

00:58:35 ◼   ► because like you one of my primary use cases for stylists and the reason I have [TS]

00:58:40 ◼   ► been so frustrated with previous ones is to write things in the English language [TS]

00:58:46 ◼   ► and so I have this workflow that is sadly under use my computer but we're at [TS]

00:58:52 ◼   ► any moment I can pull up a PDF version of any of the script that I'm working on [TS]

00:58:57 ◼   ► and I used to use the stylus is to on the screen markup and make corrections [TS]

00:59:02 ◼   ► to like a piece of paper version of the script because that's a very different [TS]

00:59:08 ◼   ► writing experience and I always felt that it made the scripts stronger when I [TS]

00:59:13 ◼   ► could read it and work on them in this fashion so I want to do this but it [TS]

00:59:20 ◼   ► means that I need a stylist that is relatively precise and it also means [TS]

00:59:25 ◼   ► that I need to be able to rest my hand on the screen and not have any errors [TS]

00:59:31 ◼   ► really about OSU tapping here did he mean to zoom in [TS]

00:59:34 ◼   ► because this is hugely frustrating when that happens so I am extremely [TS]

00:59:40 ◼   ► interested to try the pencil in person but like you I couldn't help but notice [TS]

00:59:46 ◼   ► like they're focusing on art they're focusing on big broad movements and I'm [TS]

00:59:52 ◼   ► not going to get my hopes up for the pencil because like I said before I have [TS]

00:59:58 ◼   ► nothing but but broken broken hearts from all of my relationships with all of [TS]

01:00:02 ◼   ► my style I in the past so I wanted to be great but I'm not counting on it being [TS]

01:00:07 ◼   ► great the latency stuff can be fine I think one of the things that they're [TS]

01:00:13 ◼   ► trying to build into this is the idea that the pencil always moves a little [TS]

01:00:18 ◼   ► bit quicker see it's not covering up the writing so I think it seems that they've [TS]

01:00:23 ◼   ► improved latency is always going to be some and as long as it's barely [TS]

01:00:28 ◼   ► noticeable I can live with that we have in regards to the risk detection [TS]

01:00:32 ◼   ► I'm confident they've got that sorted partly because this is a Bluetooth [TS]

01:00:36 ◼   ► stylist here [TS]

01:00:39 ◼   ► so if they are doing this the way I expect they are doing this and they kind [TS]

01:00:44 ◼   ► of hint towards this in the marketing copy the idea of this stylist touching [TS]

01:00:50 ◼   ► the screen is kinda over two-fold maneuver it knows it's being touched but [TS]

01:00:57 ◼   ► just the Bluetooth stylist itself measures some of the movement and there [TS]

01:01:02 ◼   ► between the two of them they're making the line I did see some hands-on demos [TS]

01:01:07 ◼   ► that look promising [TS]

01:01:09 ◼   ► with people being able to use the pen and then say tap on the screen with [TS]

01:01:14 ◼   ► their fingers or have their hand touch it but it just like I was seen demos or [TS]

01:01:19 ◼   ► cases where it works like that with all previous styluses but that's very [TS]

01:01:23 ◼   ► different from I'm going to be writing on the screen for 45 minutes and at no [TS]

01:01:28 ◼   ► point do I want the screen to just suddenly jumped to 800% zoom or flip [TS]

01:01:32 ◼   ► over to the next page because it wrongly interpreted my hand resting on the [TS]

01:01:36 ◼   ► screen as an input this is the thing with the pen is that the reason all the [TS]

01:01:40 ◼   ► other styluses had the problem is because they were they had these [TS]

01:01:44 ◼   ► limitations around them and so you need Apple to build this into the iPad in [TS]

01:01:50 ◼   ► order to make it work right so that it can work right and I really hope that it [TS]

01:01:54 ◼   ► works right [TS]

01:01:55 ◼   ► pencil is exciting to me I mean a thing if it works I will be very happy but [TS]

01:02:01 ◼   ► like you I'm just hesitant of being like this is gonna be great and then it's not [TS]

01:02:07 ◼   ► great exactly because you can get it so wrong so easily see people have died [TS]

01:02:14 ◼   ► without without a doubt there's a couple of things they do want to mention about [TS]

01:02:17 ◼   ► the pencil which are also on my mind one of them that I find a little concerning [TS]

01:02:23 ◼   ► is the fact that it's not included with your purchase of the iPad Pro for me [TS]

01:02:29 ◼   ► this is this is not like I'm cheap and I don't want to buy the pencil like I'm [TS]

01:02:34 ◼   ► going to buy the pencil almost certainly I'm going to buy too because one is none [TS]

01:02:38 ◼   ► of this thing there's no way to click anywhere like it's just gonna get lost [TS]

01:02:44 ◼   ► forever always listen the dual thing that worries me it's not included and [TS]

01:02:50 ◼   ► there's there's nowhere to put it and it just feels to me like Apple I know you [TS]

01:02:55 ◼   ► have a lot of space in this iPad because of the weird shot they did with the [TS]

01:02:59 ◼   ► speakers like that the these huge cavities for the speakers he also didn't [TS]

01:03:04 ◼   ► make the battery life any longer so is like 10 hours ago fundamental law of the [TS]

01:03:09 ◼   ► universe that no iPad could have more battery life than 10 hours you had space [TS]

01:03:13 ◼   ► to put this super thin stylist why isn't there a little slot that I can put this [TS]

01:03:21 ◼   ► style is into and then it charges inductively wallet in that slot even in [TS]

01:03:26 ◼   ► the case [TS]

01:03:28 ◼   ► yea or even in the case some like just a loop of fabric to put it in just do [TS]

01:03:34 ◼   ► something like that why this concerns me is it will hinder adoption rates for the [TS]

01:03:42 ◼   ► software side of things not everybody who buys an iPad Pro also buys a pencil [TS]

01:03:47 ◼   ► how much incentive is there for lots of other programs to try to work with the [TS]

01:03:53 ◼   ► pencil as much as possible so I'm thinking a lot to like the new taking [TS]

01:03:57 ◼   ► apps that I use like Shirley Apple has some API's 44 this pencil that they [TS]

01:04:02 ◼   ► would want people to to use the pencil feel like it's such a fundamental part [TS]

01:04:06 ◼   ► of this thing I would really want to see it come with the iPad pro [TS]

01:04:12 ◼   ► solely to really encourage adoption and use of it that like that's why I wanted [TS]

01:04:19 ◼   ► their ok the keyboard some people are complaining only don't include the [TS]

01:04:22 ◼   ► keyboard the cheap keyboard I can totally understand selling as an [TS]

01:04:26 ◼   ► accessory because some people might not wanna keyboard cover case right that [TS]

01:04:29 ◼   ► that's fine and the keyboard is not a fundamentally new input device it's a [TS]

01:04:34 ◼   ► keyboard there are many keyboards we've established that keyboards are a [TS]

01:04:38 ◼   ► standard input but that [TS]

01:04:40 ◼   ► pan is not a standard input it's kind of this isn't a fair comparison it's a bit [TS]

01:04:45 ◼   ► like with the Apple TV about how Apple doesn't have a game controller to go [TS]

01:04:50 ◼   ► with the Apple TV and that shows that Apple is like not really concerned about [TS]

01:04:56 ◼   ► games on the AppleTV that there that their whole perspective on it is if you [TS]

01:05:01 ◼   ► can put a casual game on the Apple TV you know that's fine but we're not we're [TS]

01:05:06 ◼   ► not really interested in having complicated games on the AppleTV whereas [TS]

01:05:10 ◼   ► if Apple had shipped and Apple TV with the game controller that came by default [TS]

01:05:16 ◼   ► you would know like ok Apple is serious about games but they clearly aren't and [TS]

01:05:21 ◼   ► so I'm just worried that the pen is a little bit like this with the iPad pro [TS]

01:05:25 ◼   ► at Apple's like yeah we're kind of into it but we're not into it enough to [TS]

01:05:31 ◼   ► really sell this as an input device that everybody who makes professional apps [TS]

01:05:36 ◼   ► should consider actually agree view especially the game and consulting my [TS]

01:05:42 ◼   ► feeling will be at stake are already built for note-taking will adopt this [TS]

01:05:48 ◼   ► immediately and there were nine some new API's around touch sensitivity which is [TS]

01:05:56 ◼   ► how the in the notes at how the drawing stuff is so good is because they added [TS]

01:06:01 ◼   ► these new API's for such things anyway so they've added some more stuff for the [TS]

01:06:07 ◼   ► pencil so I'm confident that apps are centered around the idea of taking notes [TS]

01:06:15 ◼   ► drawing stuff like that will in put this stuff in that may be announced that [TS]

01:06:20 ◼   ► aren't necessarily focused on that so much like so for example I think one [TS]

01:06:24 ◼   ► that you're probably thinking of and I'm considering is on the gravel there are [TS]

01:06:28 ◼   ► few apps that are on my mind on the gravel is one of them like doesn't [TS]

01:06:33 ◼   ► necessarily need the stylist might be nice if you had it right so there's [TS]

01:06:39 ◼   ► there's a site that were it's like well so no I'm not sure [TS]

01:06:43 ◼   ► introduced this as a as a thought for input method or like GeoTrust [TS]

01:06:49 ◼   ► are about PDFs for example enabling you to use me you see people like Microsoft [TS]

01:06:54 ◼   ► and Microsoft showed off their the way that they're going to put the pencil [TS]

01:06:58 ◼   ► into office [TS]

01:06:59 ◼   ► looms like okay because he could also do that stuff with your finger dropped like [TS]

01:07:05 ◼   ► doing the markup things and stuff like that but I do I completely understand [TS]

01:07:09 ◼   ► where you're coming from [TS]

01:07:11 ◼   ► yeah I just what I wanted my thoughts is okay here's something that I am I [TS]

01:07:15 ◼   ► wouldn't use but just under conceptually thinking about it is you could imagine [TS]

01:07:20 ◼   ► doing something like editing audio on an iPad pro where if the application [TS]

01:07:27 ◼   ► understands the difference between say here's my left hand which is on the [TS]

01:07:32 ◼   ► screen and use the pencil is in my right hand I can imagine away like you can be [TS]

01:07:39 ◼   ► doing selections with the pencil and gestures with the left hand that could [TS]

01:07:44 ◼   ► make a professional level task like audio editing possible to do on the iPad [TS]

01:07:51 ◼   ► pro as long as the app understands that so it's not a finger on the other side [TS]

01:07:56 ◼   ► like it's a pencil and we're going to move into this different mode where it's [TS]

01:08:01 ◼   ► just always selecting like we know it's a selected device and then the gestures [TS]

01:08:05 ◼   ► on the left hand are always what to do with the selections I can I can just [TS]

01:08:09 ◼   ► imagine building apps around the presumption that someone has a stylus as [TS]

01:08:15 ◼   ► an input device that really could make a difference in how you work and I just [TS]

01:08:21 ◼   ► worry that those things won't necessarily come about because operators [TS]

01:08:26 ◼   ► can't assume that everyone who has a pro also has access to a pencil that's [TS]

01:08:31 ◼   ► that's that's what I worry about you also have one very minor completed on [TS]

01:08:34 ◼   ► the pencil you ready please why is it white why is the pencil white I R O is [TS]

01:08:46 ◼   ► dark colors everywhere in the world we understand this every Apple app that's [TS]

01:08:52 ◼   ► pro is dark colors when you buy pro equipment it's dark colors [TS]

01:08:56 ◼   ► the iPad Pro is available only in space grey why does it come with a white [TS]

01:09:04 ◼   ► pencil is only available space great yeah I Pad Pro is just dark forces might [TS]

01:09:13 ◼   ► beat me to Google I was wrong [TS]

01:09:14 ◼   ► season in Gold Coast warned that it was it was just the space grey Lexus [TS]

01:09:19 ◼   ► although a lot of promises I think if you're gonna make a white one fine why [TS]

01:09:27 ◼   ► is there no black one [TS]

01:09:29 ◼   ► yeah I don't understand why there is no it doesn't make sense why why did you [TS]

01:09:32 ◼   ► choose one and if you chose why why if you just go only white kid right doesn't [TS]

01:09:36 ◼   ► make any sense I don't know why they did it some [TS]

01:09:39 ◼   ► Jony ive thing I honestly think Apple's doing it because its eye-catching if [TS]

01:09:47 ◼   ► someone is using a white input device that is rare and the white input device [TS]

01:09:53 ◼   ► like the pencil it looks very big and so I feel this this little grain of sand in [TS]

01:09:58 ◼   ► my mind of resentment of you could have made it black I think you didn't make it [TS]

01:10:04 ◼   ► black because you want people in cafes or in airports to notice someone using [TS]

01:10:10 ◼   ► this different thing this different thing that you also didn't include by [TS]

01:10:14 ◼   ► default so I just it just irks me that it's in white like none of the equipment [TS]

01:10:21 ◼   ► that I have is white everything is black or dark gray like eight matches and it [TS]

01:10:27 ◼   ► just seems like it's a more professional color you can have it in white but also [TS]

01:10:31 ◼   ► have it in black I just think it doesn't look good like when they when you have [TS]

01:10:35 ◼   ► to do that thing when you plug it into the bottom is like oh wow this black [TS]

01:10:38 ◼   ► iPad and now plugging in this white pencil in a boon to leave it on the desk [TS]

01:10:40 ◼   ► here for a minute it it's just I don't like the look of it it just it shouldn't [TS]

01:10:45 ◼   ► matter but it really does irritate me that is not available in black and i [TS]

01:11:02 ◼   ► no way it's not right [TS]

01:11:04 ◼   ► all of the pictures show it was that way there's no way that it's not so I'm just [TS]

01:11:08 ◼   ► looking at the photos I can see that this [TS]

01:11:10 ◼   ► thing is a perfect cylinder which is the worst thing to do for an Apple device [TS]

01:11:14 ◼   ► could you put it down on the desk and it will roll away again thinking of [TS]

01:11:20 ◼   ► thinking is my thought when I was very young kid in school and trying to learn [TS]

01:11:26 ◼   ► how to write my primary school teachers thought that I couldn't hold a pencil [TS]

01:11:31 ◼   ► correctly and so they attached onto the pencil this triangular solid yeah those [TS]

01:11:38 ◼   ► rubber grip things though I had to write with her grip things for forever as a [TS]

01:11:45 ◼   ► kid it seemed like I was using them embarrassingly long because I was just [TS]

01:11:49 ◼   ► not able to hold depend directly so if this thing is perfectly round which I [TS]

01:11:56 ◼   ► just don't think it's also necessary ergonomic for a pencil it may be home by [TS]

01:12:00 ◼   ► those triangles again I mean what else you gonna do [TS]

01:12:04 ◼   ► someone's gotta make that those little rubber tile things yeah I love they [TS]

01:14:51 ◼   ► in one hand because I doubt it can be both and all in all it reminds me of is [TS]

01:14:57 ◼   ► I often think of the difference between the original iPad air and the iPad air [TS]

01:15:05 ◼   ► to now if you look on Apple's products back pages and if you have two of them [TS]

01:15:13 ◼   ► side by side and look at them these devices are [TS]

01:15:17 ◼   ► so close it's remarkable that the weight between them is a tiny difference the [TS]

01:15:25 ◼   ► height of them is a tiny difference but when I got my iPad air I really disliked [TS]

01:17:42 ◼   ► was kind of my feeling with the iPad or two it was more of a torque issue and [TS]

01:17:46 ◼   ► you can feel it turning out of your hand and so you're pushing against it is not [TS]

01:17:51 ◼   ► is not really the direct way and that like that's what the iPad Pro is going [TS]

01:17:54 ◼   ► to be if you try to hold in that tiny corner he's gonna be a lot of torque [TS]

01:17:58 ◼   ► from the center of mass pushing down that you have to you have to counteract [TS]

01:18:02 ◼   ► with your little thumb on the other end but let's talk let's go back to talking [TS]

01:18:17 ◼   ► kind of stuff and wanting a device that why you want to use iOS over-used in [TS]

01:18:25 ◼   ► buy a really like that he had their several reasons why don't want to buy a [TS]

01:18:30 ◼   ► laptop [TS]

01:18:31 ◼   ► one of which is I really like being able to physically separate the screen from [TS]

01:18:39 ◼   ► the keyboard if I ever can I like to prop up the iPad screen on a little [TS]

01:18:45 ◼   ► stand and I'll put it on maybe like a book so that the up the screen is closer [TS]

01:18:50 ◼   ► to eye level then the keyboard is and if I'm going around two cafes and things [TS]

01:18:55 ◼   ► depending on the height of the table I like to be able to sometimes put the [TS]

01:18:59 ◼   ► keyboard on my lap and have the iPad on the table and so is that physical [TS]

01:19:05 ◼   ► separation that makes a big difference for me it's surprisingly comfortable to [TS]

01:19:08 ◼   ► be able to do that and you kind of don't realize with the laptop how easy it is [TS]

01:19:12 ◼   ► to end up just like hunched over the screen when the two things are in [TS]

01:19:17 ◼   ► inseparable are inseparable so that that's one big advantage to me [TS]

01:19:22 ◼   ► of the iPad and the second reason that I use the iPad so much for writing is it's [TS]

01:19:31 ◼   ► just last [TS]

01:19:33 ◼   ► distractible of an environment then OSX there are far fewer things that I can do [TS]

01:19:40 ◼   ► on it and that was one of the things that really attracted me to using an [TS]

01:19:45 ◼   ► iPad the first time it was it was the Retina screen plus the fact that like [TS]

01:19:51 ◼   ► when I'm when I'm writing and here is my writing app and this is just what I'm [TS]

01:20:01 ◼   ► on my computer I don't have the whole world of Steam games available to me at [TS]

01:20:07 ◼   ► any moment now of course as time has gone on his end as the iPad have gotten [TS]

01:20:12 ◼   ► more and more capable that is less and less true now you can mess around with [TS]

01:20:17 ◼   ► saying that like workflows you think there's other distractions that are [TS]

01:20:20 ◼   ► available but I still find iOS is just a calmer operating system was done to say [TS]

01:20:29 ◼   ► out loud but this is the mental feeling of it is a bit more like ok this is [TS]

01:20:35 ◼   ► simple and this is clear and it facilitates focus on what am i doing [TS]

01:20:41 ◼   ► right now so I just find it more enjoyable experience to work on iOS then [TS]

01:20:48 ◼   ► OS X and plus my big laptop at home this is really become for me a kind of work [TS]

01:21:15 ◼   ► now in ok I'm doing podcasts animating or editing audio this is the mode that I [TS]

01:21:23 ◼   ► am in when I am at my desk and then I am in writing and research mode when I'm on [TS]

01:21:30 ◼   ► my iPad and I find that that split just in and of itself is helpful that each [TS]

01:21:36 ◼   ► device is not necessarily for everything that there's different modes for working [TS]

01:21:42 ◼   ► that's what that's really wide [TS]

01:21:43 ◼   ► I really like using the iPad right so let's talk about sharing those modes do [TS]

01:21:51 ◼   ► you think that you could use the iPad Pro for editing or production of videos [TS]

01:21:55 ◼   ► or would you want to if you could there's no way that some of the final [TS]

01:22:00 ◼   ► animation studios ever going to happen on an iPad just it's very unlikely for [TS]

01:22:04 ◼   ► all while never say never [TS]

01:22:07 ◼   ► yeah I should be clear about that I am a techno optimists and of course [TS]

01:22:11 ◼   ► eventually when you get full haptic feedback so it feels like you're [TS]

01:22:15 ◼   ► pressing this green stuff of course then you can do stuff but the iPad as it [TS]

01:22:19 ◼   ► currently exists today that said my last video was an interesting example of [TS]

01:22:31 ◼   ► recently put up was the royal family video where I go through this whole big [TS]

01:22:35 ◼   ► family tree from 1066 until now and I did the rough draft of that entirely in [TS]

01:22:42 ◼   ► the gravel on an iPad and it was partly just to see how can I use this for some [TS]

01:22:52 ◼   ► animation work and the answer was under the right circumstances yes but even [TS]

01:22:59 ◼   ► then that was still much more [TS]

01:23:01 ◼   ► the writing and the research phase because what I was really doing is like [TS]

01:23:05 ◼   ► ok I'm building and building out this big graph of the relationships between [TS]

01:23:10 ◼   ► all of these people and as I'm doing this like I'm reading other stuff I'm [TS]

01:23:13 ◼   ► researching stuff or making corrections so it still felt like these script [TS]

01:23:18 ◼   ► creation process but once I had the basic outline then for the more detail [TS]

01:23:24 ◼   ► work i switch right back to the computer so adding in all the photos making sure [TS]

01:23:28 ◼   ► the alignment everywhere is perfectly correct adding in text labels all over [TS]

01:23:37 ◼   ► the computer [TS]

01:23:38 ◼   ► there's definitely a place for a kind of rough animation research animation that [TS]

01:23:44 ◼   ► can be done on an iPad and that's partly why I'm also really excited about the [TS]

01:23:49 ◼   ► iPad [TS]

01:23:50 ◼   ► stylist like a being able to make that easier [TS]

01:24:06 ◼   ► laptop anymore I'm not holding out hope that that's going to happen for a while [TS]

01:24:11 ◼   ► yeah audio editing thats I think that is that is asking for a lot I can imagine [TS]

01:24:19 ◼   ► it happening as I mentioned before but you know I think I might just take a [TS]

01:24:24 ◼   ► while to develop the software as I imagined manipulate those files directly [TS]

01:24:31 ◼   ► being a much nicer experience so like taking the pencil and using it to [TS]

01:24:37 ◼   ► control the actual waveforms yes feels nice but we're a long way away from them [TS]

01:35:21 ◼   ► the things and they have the money for the thing and they know that things will [TS]

01:35:25 ◼   ► be better on the axes that they care about but they don't want to buy it out [TS]

01:37:30 ◼   ► enough money aside so that I was on it I figured it out so was like every 18 [TS]

01:37:34 ◼   ► months if Apple had something new I was able to get it I felt very guilty about [TS]

01:37:41 ◼   ► that because I'm acknowledging I spend an inordinate amount of time on this [TS]

01:37:45 ◼   ► device it is worth upgrading it even if it is 20% faster or with the laptops [TS]

01:37:53 ◼   ► slightly lighter like whenever they made it a little bit later with the laptop at [TS]

01:37:57 ◼   ► the time like that was a big deal when you're carrying it back and forth all [TS]

01:38:02 ◼   ► the time I've had the money set aside for this iPhone about two months right [TS]

01:38:08 ◼   ► just waiting [TS]

01:38:09 ◼   ► yeah yeah because I knew this was gonna happen and you know I am NOT at that [TS]

01:38:16 ◼   ► point where I could just be like oh I was magical the money today but I've [TS]

01:38:20 ◼   ► been saving for it I still have money set aside for electronics as well which [TS]

01:38:24 ◼   ► is the exact same thing like I know Apple's going to come out with the new [TS]

01:38:28 ◼   ► thing [TS]

01:38:29 ◼   ► is there money available for it yes in my budget like I have it here its in [TS]

01:38:34 ◼   ► this account is ready to go [TS]

01:38:35 ◼   ► is waiting and the moment that I can turn this into a new phone [TS]

01:38:39 ◼   ► excellent this is this is great and is a similar kind of things like I can get [TS]

01:38:44 ◼   ► better pictures out of it this is exactly the purpose that i want for it [TS]

01:38:48 ◼   ► and also like I use it so much if for example Safari doesn't lose all of my [TS]

01:38:55 ◼   ► work when a busy filling in a form just because I've switched over to one [TS]

01:38:58 ◼   ► password then I come back and it refreshes the page because it has no RAM [TS]

01:39:02 ◼   ► like if I avoid doing that because the new one has more RAM like this is great [TS]

01:39:06 ◼   ► improvement and it is 100% worth I have now started saving money for the opera [TS]

01:39:13 ◼   ► there ya business expense for you can we finish up today with your crazy theory [TS]

01:39:19 ◼   ► that you have shared of me and I would like these show because it it's kinda [TS]

01:39:24 ◼   ► crazy and I think it's crazy enough to make sense and I'm interested in it and [TS]

01:39:28 ◼   ► I'm very interested to see what our audience believes of it i think is crazy [TS]

01:39:33 ◼   ► like a fox maybe yeah a little bit kinda like you really go okay so I we were [TS]

01:39:39 ◼   ► talking over lunch about this and the theory is about why does Apple still [TS]

01:39:45 ◼   ► sell a 16 gigabyte iPhone now [TS]

01:39:50 ◼   ► friend of the show underscore David Smith has recently written an excellent [TS]

01:39:54 ◼   ► article where he has a bunch of data about how terrible it can experience the [TS]

01:39:59 ◼   ► 16 gigabyte iPhone is and many people are talking about you know Apple still [TS]

01:40:05 ◼   ► sells this and why it's awful Apple it themselves kind of admitted with iOS 8 [TS]

01:40:10 ◼   ► that they had upgrade problems because people didn't have enough space on their [TS]

01:40:13 ◼   ► phones upgrade their devices and the thing that I keep hearing from everybody [TS]

01:40:17 ◼   ► is Apple's doing this for two reasons that it's profitable for them and that [TS]

01:40:24 ◼   ► it also like it pushes people up to these 64 gigabyte model so that the the [TS]

01:40:29 ◼   ► motivation behind this is money on the talk show even John Gruber asked Phil [TS]

01:40:36 ◼   ► Schiller about selling the smaller phones and we got an entirely [TS]

01:40:39 ◼   ► unsatisfactory answer [TS]

01:40:41 ◼   ► I don't think it's about the money I think Apple knows it's a bad enough [TS]

01:40:47 ◼   ► experience that they don't want to sell a 16 gigabyte iPhone my crazy theory is [TS]

01:40:54 ◼   ► that this is a supply chain issue that Apple sells so many iPhones around the [TS]

01:41:03 ◼   ► world that they are consuming a significant portion of the global supply [TS]

01:41:10 ◼   ► of the kind of memory that is used in iPhones and that they are actually [TS]

01:41:18 ◼   ► supply constrained and I mentioned to you at lunch one of the things that was [TS]

01:41:24 ◼   ► my prediction the back of my theory is if on the 26 S or if on the theoretical [TS]

01:41:31 ◼   ► pro the don't have 256 gigabytes versions that they don't increase the [TS]

01:41:37 ◼   ► top size two-year like maybe this is a little bit of evidence for Apple just [TS]

01:41:43 ◼   ► can't get their hands on enough NAND chips for the memory that this is the [TS]

01:41:49 ◼   ► real reason why the 16 gigabyte iPhone still exists not because they want to [TS]

01:41:54 ◼   ► but because they have to keep selling it makes sense to me because I i genuinely [TS]

01:42:00 ◼   ► con understand why they're doing it at this point they understand the cost [TS]

01:42:05 ◼   ► cutting thing but it doesn't meet with the customer satisfaction metrics apple [TS]

01:42:09 ◼   ► and Tim Cook seems so much to care about right Tim Cook loves his customer sets [TS]

01:42:15 ◼   ► tax assets will be back within the chance if they if they keep doing the 16 [TS]

01:42:21 ◼   ► Gigabyte because it upsets people cause they get frustrated so it makes that the [TS]

01:42:27 ◼   ► only logical explanation for me is that there is some sort of technical [TS]

01:42:30 ◼   ► limitation and a supply limitation would make sense but I just don't know how it [TS]

01:42:35 ◼   ► works like in regards to like the chips are the chips the same and you need more [TS]

01:42:39 ◼   ► of them or are there like less of the 16 gig white ships in general I don't feel [TS]

01:42:45 ◼   ► like I fully understand the weather production works balloon but it makes [TS]

01:42:50 ◼   ► sense to me [TS]

01:42:51 ◼   ► your reasoning [TS]

01:42:52 ◼   ► like that there is only so many that they can use and if they wanna go 32 [TS]

01:42:56 ◼   ► everywhere they won't have enough of it [TS]

01:42:58 ◼   ► yeah and and i actually even think that the underscore David Smith article backs [TS]

01:43:06 ◼   ► me up even more because his numbers are that it was something like what 40 45 [TS]

01:43:11 ◼   ► percent of people maybe are buying the bottom and iPhone 6 so you figure forty [TS]

01:43:18 ◼   ► percent of the people who buy iPhones are buying the 16 Gigabyte model and if [TS]

01:43:23 ◼   ► you upgraded that 232 you'd have to double the amount of memory in forty [TS]

01:43:30 ◼   ► percent of the global iPhone sales feels like too much yeah I think that is not a [TS]

01:43:36 ◼   ► trivial amount of of demand for this this product and I I honestly think it's [TS]

01:43:44 ◼   ► it's an issue of the ability in the global electronics world to supply this [TS]

01:43:51 ◼   ► stuff and we do kind of know from some documents that Apple the dealings with [TS]

01:43:57 ◼   ► companies is to lock down and pre purchase all of their supply and so this [TS]

01:44:03 ◼   ► this happens when competitors go around to the the companies that manufacture [TS]

01:44:07 ◼   ► parts for Apple and they say oh hey can you manufacture tiny hard drives for us [TS]

01:44:12 ◼   ► too and the company has to say oh no Apple has free bot 100% of our output [TS]

01:44:18 ◼   ► over the next five years and so it is the fact that Apple does that kind of [TS]

01:44:23 ◼   ► stuff to that makes me just feel like it's the memory chip that are in short [TS]

01:44:28 ◼   ► supply here like this is the precious resource Apple has already locked down [TS]

01:44:32 ◼   ► as much of this as they possibly can but it is just still not enough it's still [TS]

01:44:38 ◼   ► not enough because otherwise I just feel like all of the evidence points toward [TS]

01:44:44 ◼   ► Apple doesn't really wants to do this but they are constrained to do this so [TS]

01:44:51 ◼   ► that's my theory six I feel like I don't I don't know how these things are made [TS]

01:44:56 ◼   ► but assuming it takes more material and or more work to make a 32 gigabyte then [TS]

01:45:03 ◼   ► it makes sense [TS]

01:45:05 ◼   ► me because they write if its half of the of the iPhone sold which we know is [TS]

01:45:09 ◼   ► quarter billions of ice to millions like it's just a number that doesn't even [TS]

01:45:16 ◼   ► make any sense [TS]

01:45:19 ◼   ► quarter-on-quarter if that keeps going up like where does the material how do [TS]

01:45:24 ◼   ► you get these chips if they have to double all of that I understand that [TS]

01:45:28 ◼   ► like it feels like a problem that is too tough to solve so they're just gonna [TS]

01:45:33 ◼   ► keep ignoring what keep doing it and then eventually will have to change but [TS]

01:45:38 ◼   ► not this time I just think that they're they're stuck with the alternative is if [TS]

01:45:42 ◼   ► we give him more RAM it means we have to sell fewer phones because we simply [TS]

01:45:45 ◼   ► can't supply the memory all the cost has to go up in some way to offset some part [TS]

01:45:51 ◼   ► of my theory here is that this isn't even a cost issue but if it really is [TS]

01:45:55 ◼   ► just a a physical limitation in the in the production lines that there's [TS]

01:46:00 ◼   ► there's some bottleneck in the production of chips like they just they [TS]

01:46:04 ◼   ► just couldn't do it that they have to sell fewer phones if they wanted to [TS]

01:46:08 ◼   ► double the memory in the bottom in the bottom line is it does seem super weird [TS]

01:46:13 ◼   ► right eco 1664 128 look at this point that's just strange why that huge gap in [TS]

01:46:19 ◼   ► the middle it doesn't make any sense unless you don't have enough of these [TS]

01:46:24 ◼   ► chips it doesn't make it just doesn't make any sense of course I could be [TS]

01:46:28 ◼   ► totally wrong it could be that Apple is is trying to push people up the chain [TS]

01:46:32 ◼   ► but it's just it's been 16 gigabytes so long I just don't think that that is [TS]

01:46:38 ◼   ► really the reason I just don't think it is so that's my theory at this point I [TS]

01:46:44 ◼   ► don't care if you're wrong because I like that there is so much that's how [TS]

01:46:51 ◼   ► things work by consensus that is it case closed [TS]
