[4483.64 --> 4484.64] Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, good enough.
[4484.64 --> 4486.64] Yes, and then for a promotional period of time, you can get it at the same price.
[4486.64 --> 4487.64] Okay.
[4487.64 --> 4488.64] So you should buy this one.
[4488.64 --> 4489.64] Yeah, yeah.
[4489.64 --> 4494.64] But like, I mean, it's more than just not pirating music and saving money versus going
[4494.64 --> 4496.64] and buying albums.
[4496.64 --> 4499.64] It's- for me, it's all about the curated playlists.
[4499.64 --> 4504.64] Where I can- it'll be like, hey, it's Tuesday afternoon, do you want to listen to like, you know,
[4504.64 --> 4508.64] pick-me-up music or do you want to listen to like, mellow music and the I'm Feeling Lucky
[4508.64 --> 4511.64] radio is- is awesome and does a really, really great job.
[4511.64 --> 4512.64] Interesting.
[4512.64 --> 4519.64] Uh, Sharp's latest IGZO prototype sets the stage for 4K phablets, as if it matters.
[4519.64 --> 4521.64] Uh, the original-
[4521.64 --> 4524.64] I was gonna say, like, you sound surprisingly excited for this.
[4524.64 --> 4525.64] What's happening?
[4525.64 --> 4527.64] Obscure Mammal posted it on the forum.
[4527.64 --> 4533.64] The original article is from techreport.com and they have- they have made a prototype 25-6
[4533.64 --> 4537.64] x 1600 4.1 inch panel.
[4537.64 --> 4538.64] Oh, geez.
[4538.64 --> 4541.64] That is some incredible pixel density.
[4541.64 --> 4546.64] So we're talking 736 pixels per inch.
[4546.64 --> 4554.64] That is massively more than the Galaxy Note's 515 pixels per inch, the Google Nexus 6 is 493
[4554.64 --> 4560.64] pixels per inch, and Apple's iPhone 6 Plus is 401 pixels per inch, which quite frankly, is
[4560.64 --> 4561.64] already enough.
[4561.64 --> 4573.64] I should point out that the Droid Turbo has- I really like the display, but the issue is
[4573.64 --> 4578.64] that I don't know if it's related to the fact that it's AMOLED and I'm really enjoying the
[4578.64 --> 4582.64] deep blacks, or if it's related to that it's 2560 x 1440.
[4582.64 --> 4583.64] Yeah.
[4583.64 --> 4587.64] Because on the G3, I didn't feel like there was a benefit to the higher density display,
[4587.64 --> 4589.64] but the contrast wasn't very good.
[4589.64 --> 4590.64] Yeah, it was icky.
[4590.64 --> 4595.64] And contrast is more important once you reach a certain point than- you know, I was really
[4595.64 --> 4597.64] surprised at Marcus, MKBHD.
[4597.64 --> 4603.64] He did a collaborative thing with the Verge, like ultimate smartphone, like dream smartphone.
[4603.64 --> 4606.64] He's like, well I would take this one and then I would change this and I would squeeze
[4606.64 --> 4609.64] this and I would do this and it would have a bigger battery and all that kind of stuff.
[4609.64 --> 4613.64] And I was really surprised he picked the screen from the G3 for his dream smartphone.
[4613.64 --> 4614.64] What?
[4614.64 --> 4615.64] Yeah.
[4615.64 --> 4616.64] He's wrong.
[4616.64 --> 4617.64] Oh.
[4617.64 --> 4618.64] Well, that's one way of putting it.
[4618.64 --> 4619.64] That's a bad screen.
[4619.64 --> 4620.64] That's a bad screen.
[4620.64 --> 4622.64] I would have said to each his own, but-
[4622.64 --> 4623.64] Just no.
[4623.64 --> 4624.64] What?
[4624.64 --> 4632.64] So the latest IGZO prototype will have 11.5 micrometer pixels that will likely be impossible
[4632.64 --> 4634.64] to see with the naked eye.
[4634.64 --> 4637.64] Okay, when was that article done?
[4637.64 --> 4638.64] Which one?
[4638.64 --> 4642.64] Was that done before like Note 4 came out and stuff?
[4642.64 --> 4643.64] No.
[4643.64 --> 4645.64] No, it just went up two days ago.
[4645.64 --> 4648.64] Okay, I don't get it.
[4648.64 --> 4654.64] Okay, so that's really cool that we won't be able to see the pixels, but one potential
[4654.64 --> 4661.64] drawback is that higher density displays typically require more power to achieve the same brightness.
[4661.64 --> 4666.64] Because as you pack in more electronics dohickory, in order to actually get light through it to
[4666.64 --> 4669.64] your eyes, you have to have a brighter backlight.
[4669.64 --> 4674.64] Now, Apple seemed to figure out how to address this on their 5K iMac.
[4674.64 --> 4676.64] And that thing is so bright.
[4676.64 --> 4678.64] And they've achieved the same brightness they say.
[4678.64 --> 4679.64] I don't have a last gen one.
[4679.64 --> 4680.64] Yeah.
[4680.64 --> 4682.64] But they've achieved what they say is the same brightness as their last gen one, which
[4682.64 --> 4683.64] is ridiculous.
[4683.64 --> 4685.64] I have it on like 10% at all times.
[4685.64 --> 4689.64] I don't understand why it needs to go that bright.
[4689.64 --> 4692.64] It's just gives you like a random spotlight.
[4692.64 --> 4696.64] Yeah, I mean, honestly, I guess here, all I have to say about this, mass production will
[4696.64 --> 4698.64] reportedly begin in 2016.
[4698.64 --> 4704.64] So all I have to say about this is by 2016, battery technology better have caught up in
[4704.64 --> 4705.64] some meaningful way.
[4705.64 --> 4706.64] And I still don't care.
[4706.64 --> 4712.64] Because I would still rather have a 1080p or if you have to have a higher spec to make
[4712.64 --> 4718.64] your competitor look stupid, a 1440p panel that gives me better battery life on my device.
[4718.64 --> 4719.64] Right.
[4719.64 --> 4724.64] And better performance and better performance at native resolution in games and other applications.
[4724.64 --> 4730.64] Like I don't want to necessarily have a 4K display on something that gives me no benefit
[4730.64 --> 4735.64] and tanks my battery life and means I'm going to have to run interpolated resolutions in order
[4735.64 --> 4737.64] to get decent performance in mobile games.
[4737.64 --> 4741.64] I don't play a ton of mobile games, but I'm, it's more of a, I'm speaking on behalf of what
[4741.64 --> 4743.64] you guys should be thinking if you do play mobile games.
[4743.64 --> 4744.64] Yeah, there you go.
[4744.64 --> 4745.64] Ah, rumors.
[4745.64 --> 4754.64] R9 390X Fiji XT.
[4754.64 --> 4760.64] This was posted by ParagonX on the forum and this thing looks banana hammers.
[4760.64 --> 4772.64] May feature 4096 stream processors, so 64 compute and 256 texture units with a 4096 bit memory
[4772.64 --> 4773.64] bus.
[4773.64 --> 4774.64] Oh my God.
[4774.64 --> 4782.64] This is due to the fact that AMD is rumored to be using a completely new technology for
[4782.64 --> 4785.64] the memory on this particular card.
[4785.64 --> 4790.64] The more traditional way is we've got the chips laid out on the card and then we've got
[4790.64 --> 4793.64] contact points on the bottom of the GPU that lead out to them.
[4793.64 --> 4797.64] So that's why it was so costly to implement wider memory buses.
[4797.64 --> 4801.64] That's why we saw memory buses continue to increase on graphics cards until we reached
[4801.64 --> 4806.64] 512 bit and everyone kind of went, whoa, hold on a second.
[4806.64 --> 4811.64] This is really expensive now in terms of the area that we need for the package, in terms
[4811.64 --> 4815.64] of the contact pins that we need to create on the bottom of the, of the chip itself.
