A month with Google Pixel 8a. The best Pixel, but still a Pixel...
Pixel 8a was criticized by nearly everyone. Why bother, if its price is almost the same as the regular Pixel 8? And what's really changed compared to the 7a? Those bezels again, and that chin, ugh! The cameras haven't changed either... Does that make it the worst Pixel? Not quite. At current prices, the 8a is actually the most cost-effective Pixel, and its flaws are much less significant for the money than those found in the regular Pixel 8 or the Pro models. It's all about the user experience-let's talk about that!

The Nothing Phone (2a) is full of surprises, some good, some not so much. For about $350, this phone has unique features that remind you of the Google Pixel... but are quite different.

What is Passkey and why all passwords are bad?
Переглядів 242Рік тому
All passwords are bad. Even 30-characters long, with special symbols and numbers. Because all of them are susceptible to brute force, guessing or hacking, not to mention leaking data bases with usernames and passwords. And human factor takes place too - for example, you can set one password for multiple sites, and if one of them is your email service - you may never gain access to your accounts...

Apple Watch Ultra are NOT REALLY for hardcore sportsmen
Переглядів 1,5 тис.2 роки тому
Apple Watch Ultra should not be a Pro product because they should appear even more superior. And also to convince you to buy them even more. Of course, sportsmen are considered too, but the tech enthusiast guys, the I-want-only-the-best guys, the guys that are just working in the harsh conditions, or the ones that just want a really big watch, they're all very important for the company's profit...

    I'm still debating what to buy. I currently are running 3x 27" on the latest intel mac mini, which is so laggy with my work. I'm in crypto so how my screens look like is 1 with only telegram and other 2 with multille browser tabs, at least 20 up to 40, and multiple google sheets. I also have an old 2015 macbook pro 15, so my thought was to swap both for 1 good macbook. Now to run my 3 screens i would need the m3 max chip what seems overkill for my day2day work. So i'm swapping 3 screens for 1 super ultrawide. Which macbook would recommend now? The macbook air m3 16gb or do i still need a better performer like the macbook pro m3 pro because of the MANY open tabs??

    Very interesting and definitely helpful! Well, I bought my MacBook Air with M1, 16GB and 512Gb storage three years ago, and I'm still perfectly happy with it. But it's a bit harsh to call it a typewriter. I agree with you cautioning about the M2 in combination with 8Gb RAM. I replaced my old intel Mac Mini with 16Gb for a M2 with 8Gb, and the M2 one is significantly slower and not as comfortable to work with. When the time comes to replace my MacBook Air, I'll buy the same one, but with M3 and 16Gb.

    I don't understand how people can compare the M1 and M2 design and say "look, the M2 looks better" when the thichness of the M2 is basically like my old 2010 MBP and we call that nice? i wish the M2 still kept that wedeg design.. Yes. i do disagree... thin is always better.. who wants thick? But but goes back and fouth.... probably by the same people who upgrade everytime a new mac is released,. Apple knows that poeple will buy into this regardless so they just do it anyway.

  • @zbigniewdutkowski4465
    @zbigniewdutkowski4465 2 місяці тому

    I think that besides the specs and quality, there is one important factor you didn't consider - longevity of these computers. If you want to have it for a couple of years or eventually sell it, many people argue it's wise to choose the latest version of the M chip. Otherwise you might have problems with updates and support from Apple in the future. The M1 was introduced four years ago..

    Best video so far on what to buy. My Macbook Air 13" is 10 years old this year (I cannot get over the backlit logo that made me buy this laptop in the first place). It is still going and works way better than the dreadful HP laptop from work. However, my baby's age is starting to show so I need to upgrade before she explodes. Interesting take on Macbook Pro. I might just look at the Macbook Pro with the M2 Pro or M2 Max (didn't know that these two existed until this video). I was thinking of getting the Air M3 prior to watching this video but you have sold me the Pro instead. Brilliant video. You've earned yourself a new subscriber. Thank you so much!

    I have had both 14 inch MacBook Pro 16gb/512 and a MacBook Air 16gb/512 and yes the display, speakers are better but the one thing that I noticed is the battery life. I can easily get 8 hour day out my MacBook Air but the Pro on many days was hard not to charge before the end of the day. Not for long though. With meetings, emails, WiFi use the extra power used more of the battery. With the Air I really get below 30% by the end of the day. The ONE big issue was the dual monitor support using M2 Air. We have upgraded to M3 got a new Air and for our work needs this is the perfect laptop hands down. We do buy 16/512 models which yes is a definite must have as Apple is way behind in this area but you can buy more ram 🤷‍♂️🤬

    Excellent video thank you, I have the M1 16in pro max fully loaded since launch. It is fantastic to this day doing 4k cine editing and so on. Other than confirming that I wasn't an idiot buying it, and I do get the fans spinning from time to time, this video has also confirmed that choosing a M1 Pro 14in (Apple M1 Pro chip 10-core CPU, 16-core GPU and 16-core Neural Engine 16gb ram/1tb ssd) for a friend who has just retired and has 'ideas' - the perfect choice of model for him. Too easy to say, 'you're not going to be a heavy user - get a cheap air' - thus limiting the option further down the line, when he realises he wants to edit the videos and pictures he will surely capture on his retiree travels, he can without compromise. He may fancy playing with AI, that can be done as well. As I said excellent video, my friend is watching it now before he blows the dust off his wallet! (Hi Dave)
