Reality Tech

Fuschia OS from Google is finally here!, first on Nest Hub. Pixel 5a manages to disappoint, but Pixel 6 Pro intrigues even more! Crazy Pixel 7 patent leads to potential solution for under-display cameras, but the way Samsung is testing the waters with it is sheer genius! Apple Lossless still not supported in the way Apple Music users need it to be. Follow me on Instagram & message me there or here on Anchor with your thoughts on anything in today's show. Thanks for listening!

WARNING: around 50:16, there's a startling sound that lasts about three seconds. We're unaware of why it occurred. Onto the description: It's our first time having Táj back in awhile! We're gonna start off with some expected Google news, then rumour-filled news, mostly on Apple, with a hint of Samsung at the end, & end it on a sad note about LG. Ikr? How is that a way to end the episode? Come hangout with us on our first remotely-hosted episode of Reality Tech! And please, bear with us. There were a few stutters😅, but nothing that interrupts the enjoyment of us covering the news. Thanks for your continuous support!

Until I got to editing, I didn't realize how low my volume was; so sorry about that, guys. The Galaxy Buds Pro are discussed first, but I really wanted that title; those earbuds are a day-one buy. Tune in to find out why! We've also got some quite solid rumours on the Galaxy S21 & Galaxy Z Fold3. No shocker to anyone that keeps up, the carriers & their customers LOVE the S20 FE. Ik I said I'd upload last Friday, but my work schedule got switched up so much, I tried preparing for that. Anyway, if you wanna contact me about the podcast other than through Anchor's voice messages, DM me on Twitter @nintendofirst ! If you'd rather email me, lmk & I'll set one up. Thanks for the support as always, guys! And if the news isn't slow, I'll try having another episode out this weekend.

In my somewhat sleep-deprived state, I go over how Apple is not Apple in recent, in addition to a small win for Epic Games. OnePlus may disappoint next year with their 9 Pro & Samsung is saying "bon voyage!" to the Galaxy Note line, as they usher in the Galaxy Z Fold line to take its place; alleged Z Fold FE & Z Flip FE are also discussed here. And I delve a little into the rumoured Z Scroll or as gross people refer to it as "Galaxy Z Fold S". Stupid, I know. Anyway, enjoy this one while I work on another to come out this week! Thanks for your continued support!

In a change of plans upon my return, we basically do a versus between Lenovo & ASUS with their offerings of gaming phones. The title, however, kinda gives away my opinion prematurely. Mic control, admittedly, wasn't the best this episode; since it had been awhile, I turned the mic volume down too low. You can still hear me, don't worry, but the music is slightly louder than I is all. Anyway, it really feels good to be back! Hope you guys enjoy this one, as I was a little sleepy, recording this at 2a.😅

Here's where I pretty much give the specs release dates & my personal thoughts on the products announced during the Google event on September 30th. For reasons you'll understand as you listen, I also went ahead & decided to do a second "story", only it's more personal. I'll be talking about the recent YT Music updates amidst the impending shutdown of Google Play Music. I like finding out how things will go as I deal with things, so, I'm not really sure what a set time would be for this show, even if I am hosting on my own, i.e. this episode. But to be fair, this was a reveal event that contained more than one product, so it was pretty much bound to be longer than usual. But I will say at least with one other person, the show will usually fall in the 15-45min range. I really wanted this to be a short-form show, but, I guess sometimes it's better than the way you initially plan for things to go. Thank you guys for choosing Reality Tech.

I have my frequent co-host from my other podcast, NF Reviews, currently on hiatus, Táj joining me in this more light-hearted, less-jabbing episode. Wanted to bring some good news your way for the OFFICIAL first episode. However, I did leave something out about the Samsung portion that I'll address in the next episode, as well as my slip-up about OIS.(I was a bit elated, alright‽😆) And I'm covering leaks on the Pixel lineup to be announced next week. Tune in & share! Thanks for choosing Reality Tech.

[CRINGE WARNING!!] I wanted to hit ya with a prologue-type episode. Shows will never exceed 30 mins, as I want to have a discussion instead of having a tangent kinda like I do on my other podcast; to give more context, this premiere has four episodes. This (somewhat) shows you how I plan to host the show when I'm doing it alone. You can tell the show went through certain changes as I recorded different parts on different days. I sincerely thank you for giving me a chance & taking out the time to listen to what I have to say. I hope you come back & join the discussion! And look: first day of Autumn! I'm turning over a new leaf with this new podcast and I hope you guys stick around for the journey! The goal here is two stories per episode, two episodes weekly, but if the news is dry, I'll try for at least one episode that week. Just know that this show is never stagnant, always improving, & would do even better with your feedback! Thanks for listening.
