**My 2020 Tech Wishlist**

As we approach the new decade, I find myself excited about various technological advancements that are expected to hit the market in 2020. One thing that's been on my mind is the iPhone. While Apple has consistently impressed with its recent releases, I'm eager to see a new design, high refresh rate display, and USB Type-C port. The cameras on iPhones have always been a highlight, and I expect this year's model to be no exception.

I must admit that 5G was one of the tech features that I was most looking forward to last year, but I've had a chance to test it out and see its strengths and weaknesses firsthand. While it's still in its early stages, I believe that low- and mid-band 5G will be more accessible to the general public than millimeter wave technology, which is currently being touted as the "next big thing." It's clear that there's a lot of progress being made in this area, and I'm eager to see how it evolves in the coming years.

Another aspect of tech that I'm excited about is the Red Komodo system. As someone who shoots on Red cameras, I've had the opportunity to try out their previous models, but I've heard a lot about the new Komodo body style. It's expected to be smaller and more versatile than its predecessors, with a 6K sensor, Canon RF mount, and weather sealing. I think this could be a game-changer for car videography and travel photography, and I'm looking forward to seeing it in action.

Finally, electric cars continue to be one of the most exciting areas of tech innovation. This year saw the release of an electric Mustang, which was a thrilling sight to behold. Porsche also joined the electric party, with their e-performance lineup making headlines. And then there's Tesla, which has been working tirelessly to bring its vision for sustainable energy to life. The company is expected to release a triple-motor plaid drivetrain for the Model S by the end of 2020, as well as start production on the highly anticipated Semi truck. Meanwhile, the Model Y is rumored to be ahead of schedule and could make its public debut early in 2020.

Of course, no discussion of electric cars would be complete without mentioning Tesla's Roadster. The company has been teasing this project for years, but there's still no official word on when it will arrive. While Elon Musk has hinted that the Roadster might not hit the market until 2021, I'm willing to keep my fingers crossed that Tesla will deliver on its promise. As always, we'll just have to wait and see what the future holds for this iconic vehicle.

As I look ahead to the new decade, I'm excited to see how these technologies intersect and influence each other. From high-speed cameras to electric cars, there's a lot to be excited about in the world of tech. Here's hoping that 2020 will bring us some amazing innovations that will make our lives easier, more enjoyable, and more sustainable.

**The Future of Tech: What's Next?**

As we enter the new decade, it's clear that technology is going to play an increasingly important role in shaping our daily lives. Whether it's through improved cameras, faster processors, or sustainable energy solutions, there are countless ways in which tech is going to continue to evolve and improve.

One area that I'm particularly excited about is the development of new camera technologies. The Red Komodo system, for example, has all the makings of a game-changer for car videography and travel photography. Its smaller size, 6K sensor, and Canon RF mount make it an attractive option for anyone looking to capture stunning footage on the go.

Another area that's going to be worth keeping an eye on is electric cars. As we've seen with the release of the Mustang and Porsche's e-performance lineup, there's a lot of excitement around sustainable energy solutions. Tesla, in particular, has been making waves in this space, and it will be interesting to see how their vision for a carbon-neutral future plays out.

Of course, there are many other areas of tech that I'm excited about, from 5G advancements to innovative new materials. But at the end of the day, it's all about how these technologies can improve our lives and make the world a better place.

**The Road Ahead: Challenges and Opportunities**

As we look ahead to the new decade, there are certainly challenges that lie ahead for tech innovators. One of the biggest hurdles is going to be scaling up production and making these technologies accessible to the masses. Whether it's electric cars or 5G networks, there's a lot of work to be done to make these solutions affordable and widely available.

But even with these challenges in mind, I believe that technology has the power to solve some of the world's most pressing problems. From climate change to healthcare, there are countless ways in which tech can improve our lives and make the world a better place.

Of course, this is all assuming that we're able to overcome the many obstacles that stand between us and a more sustainable future. As someone who's passionate about technology, I believe that it's our responsibility to use these tools for good. Whether it's through innovative new products or cutting-edge research, there are countless ways in which tech can be used to drive positive change.

**The Future of Tech: A Visionary Perspective**

As we enter the new decade, I'm reminded of a quote from Buckminster Fuller, who once said, "You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete." This philosophy couldn't be more relevant when it comes to technology.

In many ways, tech is all about building new models and making the existing ones obsolete. Whether it's through innovative new materials or sustainable energy solutions, there are countless ways in which technology can be used to drive positive change.

For me, this means embracing a vision of the future that's not just about speed and efficiency, but also about sustainability and social responsibility. It's about using technology to improve our lives and make the world a better place, rather than just accumulating wealth and power for its own sake.

As I look ahead to the new decade, I'm excited to see how this vision will play out in the world of tech. Whether it's through electric cars or 5G networks, there are countless ways in which technology can be used to drive positive change.

And so, here's to the future! May it be bright, may it be bold, and may it be guided by a vision of innovation and progress that makes the world a better place for all.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhy every i no matter how hard i try i can never seem to line this shot up like to get everything perfectly lined up that's all right hey what's up guys mkbhd here so it's the end of 2019 which was a pretty great year a lot of exciting stuff happened but i am pretty pumped for 2020. the start of the new decade yes it's a new decade i'm sticking with that and all the stuff that comes with it and uh just following up an already great year so rewinding just a little bit just to recap you might remember at the beginning of this past year i said that the goal for this channel was to make a hundred high quality tech videos we got a 99 the year before would have been nice to cap triple digits this video for this calendar year is number 110 and i'm actually really proud of that i don't think we were rushing any or we're over cranking out videos when we didn't need to inside of that we had full length retrotech episodes we had interviews with bill gates and will smith and satya nadella we had the smartphone awards we had the blind smartphone camera test we had re-uploading a video a thousand times to see what it would look like whole bunch of interesting stuff in there so 110 videos this year i think that's a good pace to keep but on top of that we also started the waveform podcast that is already one of the top of all tech podcasts on earth according to apple podcast so shameless plug but i'll link that below and i'm really proud of that and i think well i know that the podcast is going to be even bigger and better because of our plans for 2020. so the waveform podcast and the channel are now like that and in case anyone was curious in the ultimate frisbee world pride of new york had a pretty good season we won pro championships this summer and we made it to the semi-finals of nationals and the pro team new york empire went 15-0 making it to the final four then beating indianapolis in the semis and beating dallas in the finals to cap off an undefeated season and to win new york's first audl championship so on to the next decade of course there's a bunch of tech to look forward to i'm going to start off right off the bat with foldables this is going to be the year for foldables to better define themselves as a category you know right now every foldable that comes out sort of gets they all get compared to each other even though they're not quite the same thing sort of the same way every new electric car that comes out gets compared to tesla just because we have a default right now 2020 is exciting we already have that motorola razer that we've already seen coming out in early 2020 assuming nothing goes wrong that's your vertical folding clam shell design that's super reminiscent of the razor we had in years past and now we also have these rumors and renders of a clamshell samsung galaxy fold and this sort of feels like it would be a direct competitor to the razer but samsung would also be doing it their own way potentially with different materials different high-end specs and cameras and potentially at a very different price and then there could also be a new huawei mate x there could also be a new escobar folding phone but the point i'm making is price competition is going to be real now and folding phones we get past the first gen where everyone's sort of figuring it out and now we actually have price competition to say you know do you want to buy a 2 000 folding phone or an 850 folding phone or a 3 000 folding phone so that'll be interesting to see and then something that i just want to see everyone take part of is high refresh rate all the things see this was already a theme of 2019 i do recall some people having their feathers ruffled by the oneplus 7 pro winning the mvp of my smartphone awards spoiler alert but there really was a divide this year between high refresh rate in smartphones and those that stuck at 60 hertz for at least one more year last year so 2020 is the year i'm hoping samsung flagships motorola flagships apple flagships i hope everyone's best smartphone this year has at least a 90 hertz display we're expecting some to be 120 but high refresh rate all the things and then we'll also see that sort of trickle down in price too we're getting mid-range phones that have 90 hertz screens so then that leads me to pixel 4a not pixel 5 i'm sure that'll still be a really interesting phone in 2020 also but pixel 4a is the one that i and a lot of people are looking forward to so pixel 3a came out at google i o so that's may or june so that's a round one we'll expect to see the follow-up this year and we're already seeing renders of it based on speculation and leaks and basically the exciting thing is google actually has some real proof of what people want in smartphones and they can see that in their sales numbers so pixel 4a can be that mid-range slash budget slayer with an excellent camera no frills you know the google software experience and software updates a headphone jack and maybe a trick or two up its sleeve so with as competitive as mid-range and budget phones have gotten in the past couple years google having a leg in there would be really nice but that's a nice segue to galaxy s 11 which i'm super ready for it and i think it wouldn't be a stretch to right now call that an early front runner for best phone of next year or at least most hyped phone of next year there are lots of renders of galaxy s11 already too with a lot of focus on those cameras um we're looking at a potential five camera setup on the back of galaxy s11 but not just that we could also see the high refresh rate 120 hertz amoled display could have a bigger 5000 milliamp hour battery the latest and greatest in silicon that snapdragon 865. i would agree with a lot of people that the galaxy s10 and s10 plus from this year were some of the biggest snubs of the year in the smartphone awards because they sort of fly under the radar coming out earlier in the year and the note comes out after it but galaxy s11 and s11 plus are looking super good and of course s11e is also supposed to come out around that same time probably on the same launch day but we're looking forward to s11 and then one more smartphone and you gotta see this coming the iphone uh i guess this will be 11s or 12 i never know what they're gonna call it but the new iphone the 2020 iphone the flagship uh and it's funny i've been on this train for a while we're also expecting to see uh an iphone se 2 essentially we're going to see something like an iphone 8 style body with upgraded internals so that's of course less exciting but that's also happening this year but the new flagship iphone has to have a lot going for it and it turns out because of what they've done with iphone design you can basically take everything i said last year about the iphone and apply it this year but with like twice as much confidence the new iphone and a lot of this for me is specifically because of how much i like the new ipad pro so i'm not so secretly hoping that the new iphone has that like really industrial boxy sort of design i'm also hoping that maybe this is the first year that we get 120 hertz display in the iphone just like we have in the ipad pro's i am hoping that maybe we also get a usb type-c port in the new iphone if they're willing to do it on the ipad maybe they're willing to do it in the iphone i don't know and then naturally we've come to expect high-end performance in iphones a lot of people don't know this but the one terabyte ipad pro has six gigs of ram maybe we'll see a high-end terabyte iphone 11 with a six gigs of there's all these these things that i see in the ipad pro that i want in the iphone so yeah so that but 2020 iphone i i really just want new design high refresh rate usb type c the rest for me is kind of a bonus and i know their cameras are going to be good again but yeah 20 20 iphone okay 5g five uh i passed on 5g last year as one of those tech things that i was looking forward to most as it was super early and i actually have been impressed with how much 5g has progressed since then and i don't think it's going to be at the forefront again i think there's going to be a lot of 5g phones but we actually got to test 5g this year with millimeter wave where we saw its strengths and we saw some of its weaknesses and shortcomings and we got to see low and mid band 5g which had its own set of benefits 5g isn't expected to be some instant thing of course it's a multi-year rollout and each carrier has a different way of doing that multi-year rollout but i think keeping an eye on those low to mid band 5g rollouts is the most interesting part for most people they'll still see the crazy tests of millimeter wave getting a thousand up and down but keep an eye on that low to mid band 5g and then okay so camera stuff i'm gonna take a page out of dave2d's book here because i'm excited about the same thing that he also mentioned he's excited about in one of his videos i'll link his video below but the red komodo system it's a new body style for red cameras some of you know i shoot on red cameras and i don't talk about production stuff all that much but their komodo system is expected to be a much smaller like softball size camera 6k sensor new sensor entirely a canon rf mount weather sealed they've been teasing this thing for a couple of months and we're expecting to see it come out in early to mid 2020 and because of its size and expected versatility i think for me this is going to be the car video camera this is going to be the travel camera for me over things like the blackmagic pocket 6k that i was considering getting that i'll probably wait on now so the red komodo camera system it's pretty niche and i know not a lot of people care about that but i am ready for it and then to bring it all back to electric cars as kind of the most exciting new thing in tech for a lot of people we got an electric mustang this year which was pretty sweet to see and we got an electric porsche we got the tie can actually coming out and shipping to people i would love to do videos on both of those by the way but you can't talk about electric cars without at least mentioning tesla and what they seem to have in the works is a triple motor plaid drivetrain for model s at the end of 2020 and then of course their semi truck is supposed to come out next year or at least slowly start being manufactured if they can figure out manufacturing there and then tesla model y is expected to actually be ahead of schedule for production and we should see the first model wise shipping to customers in early 2020. they've been spotted on roads for a couple of weeks now which is always a good sign of them testing prototypes and things like that so model y seems to be right around the corner but then the tesla roadster 2020 is this famed quickest production car ever actually going to come out when they promised it would which is during the year 2020 no there's no actual update on tesla.com with any of this information but just going from elon tweets which is kind of what we have to do at this point and i think actually franz at tesla has also mentioned this on a podcast but the roadster seems to be delayed until at least after the plaid triple motor model s which is the end of 2020. so that's probably a 2021 type of thing and i'm a little bummed about it yes but i also never expect tesla to be on time so as long as they actually do deliver what they said they would i'll be really excited but yeah model y seems to be actually ahead of schedule and ready to start hitting the streets in 2020 so there you have it that's some tech i'm looking forward to and i'm really ready for in 2020 some higher fresh rates here some new pixel 4a a new iphone and galaxy s11 here and there uh i'm just i'm ready to start this new decade on a high note hopefully january at ces is where we start to see some cool stuff either way thanks for watching catch you in the next decade peacewhy every i no matter how hard i try i can never seem to line this shot up like to get everything perfectly lined up that's all right hey what's up guys mkbhd here so it's the end of 2019 which was a pretty great year a lot of exciting stuff
