5th Tech Q&A Session for 2022 _ GeekyRanjit

The Hype Surrounding the Nothing Phone

The phone market is abuzz with excitement as the Nothing phone has garnered significant attention and hype. The company, known for its ability to create buzz, is teasing features and details about their upcoming product, leaving fans eagerly waiting for its release. Even MKBSD, a popular tech enthusiast, couldn't resist sharing a video, but the speaker remained skeptical of the hype, choosing instead to wait and see how the phone turns out.

Processor-wise, the Nothing phone is expected to be quite impressive, with the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 chip providing a significant boost in performance. This new chipset will replace the older Snapdragon 778, which was initially touted as a top-of-the-line processor. The speaker notes that while the phone may get many things right, its pricing in India will be crucial in determining its appeal. With estimates ranging from ₹30,000 to ₹35,000, it remains to be seen how the Nothing phone will stack up against other offerings in the market.

A Different Approach to Design

The Nothing company is known for its minimalist design approach, which sets it apart from other manufacturers. The speaker expresses frustration with the constant hype surrounding new products and the tendency to fall prey to it. They prefer to wait and see how the product actually performs before making any judgments. When it comes to the Nothing phone's design, it's expected to be sleek and understated, a hallmark of the brand's approach.

In contrast, the MacBook Air M2 has generated significant interest among fans, particularly those seeking dual-monitor support. However, the speaker notes that Apple's approach to supporting dual monitors is unique, with the Pro series being the only option for users who need this feature. Even the 16-inch MacBook Pro, which features a more powerful M1 Max chip, can only support two external monitors.

The Future of Service Centers

One question on everyone's mind is how the Nothing company will handle service centers in India, as it launches its first smartphone. With no affiliation with the Oppo or BBK group, there are concerns about who will provide support for the phone in case of any issues. The speaker notes that they will keep an eye on this aspect and try to cover more information once the product is released.

The Importance of Performance

The Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 chip, set to power the Nothing phone, promises significant performance upgrades over its predecessor. As a replacement for the older Snapdragon 778, it's expected to provide better speed and efficiency. However, the speaker cautions that this chipset will not be exclusive to the Nothing phone, as other manufacturers are also expected to adopt it.

A New Brand in Town

The Nothing company is an independent entity, which sets it apart from other smartphone brands. As a result, concerns about their ability to provide reliable service and support for users in India are valid. The speaker expresses skepticism about how the company will handle customer support, citing the lack of affiliation with established brands.

Conclusion

As the Nothing phone prepares for its release, fans continue to speculate about its features and performance. With promises of significant upgrades over its predecessor, the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 chip has generated excitement among tech enthusiasts. However, it's essential to approach these claims with a healthy dose of skepticism, waiting until the product is actually released before making any judgments. The company's pricing strategy in India will also be crucial in determining its appeal.

When it comes to the MacBook Air M2, users are eager to upgrade from their old Windows laptops. However, Apple's unique approach to supporting dual monitors has raised questions about compatibility. As always, the speaker expresses a preference for waiting and seeing how products perform before making any judgments.

The Nothing phone is expected to bring significant improvements over its predecessor, with the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 chip promising better performance. The company's pricing strategy in India will be crucial in determining its appeal. With no affiliation with established brands, concerns about customer support and service centers are valid.

Overall, the tech market is always subject to hype and speculation, but it's essential to approach these claims with caution. By waiting until products are actually released, we can get a more accurate understanding of their features and performance.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhi guys this is ranjit and this is the jung tech q a session and yes i was not feeling well had a coward that's still recovering but i thought let's do the q a and guys i've taken a little bit less questions generally i take about 25 just about half of them but let's get on with this one and this can be interesting because i've taken a variety of questions not just smartphone related uh questions so let's get on with this and the first question i got is the laptop related question he says samsung laptop book 2 uh bro 360 is a good buy my users purely office use constrain the cost is really good buy or is there any other alternative i just want to ask you do you really need that convertible because that 360 is the two in one if you don't care about that 360 thing i would say stick to the regular galaxy book 2 or the galaxy book 2 pro if you really want that light weight the galaxy book 2 pro was very good in fact i had both the galaxy booktube 2 2 360 pro and the regular galaxy book 2 pro and i like the regular uh book 2 pro because how light it was so decide if you are going to use it in the tablet form factor i would say uh both were reviewing it sadly it went back i couldn't do a full review but for what it was that laptop it was a decent one i would say uh considering how light they were for the specs okay uh let's move to the next one this is uh mr chakraborty he says are you still using the s22 ultra how's the overall performance and battery life is battery life as good as the iphone 13 pro i actually never use the s22 ultra as my primary phone only uh when during the initial unboxing area period i used it for three four days and never actually used it as a primary smartphone i always use the samsung galaxy s 22 plus uh so i haven't used it in a daily basis but as far as i remember when i used it in terms of comparison to the iphone 13 pro uh my secondary sim is always on the iphone 13 pro definitely the iphone 13 pro gets better battery life compared to the s22 ultra i hope it helps in fact uh if you go with the max iphone 13 pro max that has an insane battery life but even the regular iphone 13 pro the battery life is insane that is one of the big difference i would say from the iphone 12 versions to the 13th battery life this is by kunal he's asking what are your thoughts on the samsung 2022 q series sound bars i asked this because no indian tech youtuber has published reviews of the budget q series soundbar like the q 600 700 800. i was interested in buying one of these sandbar but no reviews i can decide uh i actually uh own one of the flagships about two years ago the q 950 t check my channel uh samsung sound bar q 950 that's the highest end uh that time about two two and a half years ago i was debating between the bose sound bar and this one and i found the samsung one to be better for my needs and in fact it worked out to be a lot cheaper than the bose and in fact offered atmos and stuff and i still have that sound bar it was the flagship at that time q950d and it's fabulous uh you also have that q that q means q symphony so if you have a latest samsung what do you say uh that q-led tv range or whatever uh the sound you can output directly from the sandbox or you can also uh include the built-in speakers for better effect i am not using it with the what do you say a built-in tvs but just using the sound with the soundbar and it's actually really good um i am in fact there is a requirement for me for my new setup i might be looking at the new range of 2022 but i'll again be going with the flagship because i want it to be a permanent kind of a setup but again that q means that q symphony the only big difference is that if you have a samsung own qled tv or something it will work in conjunction with the built-in speakers of that tv you can disable that functionality but as a regular sandbar actually it works very well and i'm actually using it as a regular sound bar without that q symphony features uh in fact turned out to be much better at least the q5 950d i don't know about the budget range series this is by vikas uh hi run do you hope you are you and your family are recovering well yes sort of recovering not completely but yeah on the way i would say thank you for asking wanted to know if there is any alternative that comes to a iwatch that is an apple watch in the android space a friend has built a samsung ecosystem of watches and phone but wanted to know your thoughts sir because i'll be very blunt if you want that seamless ecosystem and if you are using an iphone and something the apple watch nothing even comes close to the app launch and i've tried everything for example this is the garmin watches are very expensive about 99 000 rupees of watch but still this also does not come anywhere close to the apple watch um the closest i would say in the android ecosystem is the galaxy watch series that you get but again the fit and finish and still the ecosystem that we have in the apple watch is still miles better that we get for the uh what do you say galaxy watch so again i'll be very blunt if you want the best smart watch and you can charge it every day then there is no competition as of now to the apple watch uh but on android uh if you're using an android phone of course it doesn't work with apple watch so the nearest competitor that you have is the galaxy watch series that you can have a look at that anyways moving to the next one this is by uh mr bakshi he's saying uh the smartphone market is getting way too saturated and the new launches uh on the smartphones are not that impre impressive to be honest yes i agree can you tell us what companies need to make the market interesting again and as it was in the earlier days uh mr bakshi i think so just too many uh senseless mindless launches are happening and these brands are hyping it like this this is the best next thing to the slide spread whereas it's not it's the same damn smartphone just changing the camera from 2 megapixel from here to here or doing something else the same stuff so i think so now users also we as reviewers have gotten bored of it users have got bored of it and they're just milking the same cat again and again there is hardly any innovation in fact brands should cut down on the amount of models that they are launching it's seriously irritating earlier it was good smartphone brands most of them used to have clear distinction at least in budget range and the mid-range they used to release one or good two models in mid-range one very solid product and in the higher end of course one or two products but now it's so diluted in mid-range they'll launch five odd products in the budget range they'll run for five products in the higher end plus pro ultra god knows what so it's so confusing right now and i think the users are also sort of fed up with this gimmicks and over hyping of stuff that has become so so common these days that's why these days i'm not that interested and excited about new smartphone launches because they hype it so much that when the smartphone comes out the reality is so so different and you get i frankly get disappointed anyways moving to the next one this is by uh mr shukla wishing you for a speedy recovery thank you as you mentioned uh before uh you try to apply your ot update wait around for 45 days as it appears on the device how do you decide safe or not or breaking the device again you have to wait because when a new ot update comes especially on android phones there is no guarantee that what that update is going to do and we have seen on many of these android smartphones it's not only from like chinese oems but even established vendors from alexa samsung etc after users are applying that update the uh some motherboards are having issues the display starts to have issues and stuff like that so it's become very very common now so that is the reason i tell even to my relatives when you get an ot update just don't rush out and put it out man what is the big deal about it your phone is working perfectly fine what will this update do these updates are actually crippling the devices and that's a fact so just wait for a month or so check the forums or something because sometimes the update only after a couple of days starts giving problems and you have seen with the galaxy s 20 plus uh many users after the update the smartphone's display started to having problems uh for example it's not just software issues but even hardware issues and we have seen with a lot of other vendors that the motherboard just started to having uh issues the phone became so sluggish and when you go to the service center they say the motherboard is damaged so this is happening a lot and it is not just restricted to the mid-range smartphone or something this is even having to flagship so i would say be very very very careful uh if you have an android phone and that's slightly old when you get an ot update be very very careful i've warned you guys so many times happened in our own family also okay moving to the next one this is by uh mr ankit sharma he says great fan of your content thank you what do you think about streaming sticks like amazon fire tv me tv stick apple tv box where they stand in the age of smart tvs what are your top three picks of streaming boxes or sticks other options can be introduced i'm going to be very frank uh i had tested a few of these amazon fire stick or even the me stick extra but not from the past two two and a half years if you notice i haven't covered them because most of the smart tvs even the budget oriented smart tvs uh that come that are less than fifteen thousand have all these smart features integrated so if you're having a new tv or something like that it does not make sense to buy this the last one that i've used personally was the amazon fire stick in fact uh it's on my dad's tv it's a samsung tv that was not smart and still we are using that and it works fine but we didn't bother to upgrade with the latest one because the old one still works fine so again i feel this has become sort of a very niche market if you have a very old tv that does not have smart features or something then you can go with these ones because the tv might be perfectly working fine so that was the case with the samsung tv that we have is picture quality everything is working perfectly even but because it's become so old some that smart features are irrelevant that's why that smart uh what do you say amazon fire stick makes sense on that but again if you have a modern tv these don't make sense anyways moving to the next one this is from mr air please recommend a tv requirement is to watch movies in the best resolution and to play games on ps5 xbox need to be smart tv as well screen size 55 to 60 inches which should be ideal for my home uh if recommending chinese brand uh how safe are they okay let's first talk about sizes because i have multiple screens for example we have 55 tv in the house 65 and even 75 and i would say for most of them uh most of you guys the sweet spot is between 55 to 65 the 75 becomes just too big in my frank opinion so again based on your what he says area what do you have the screen a 55 should be good enough but if you have a slightly larger space or something a 65 might even do good because these days uh the pricing prequel for the 65 is not that high the 75 is still very high so look for that of course it will be a 4k tv no need to go over the 8k as of now and if you want that future proofing make sure it has supports hdmi 2.1 because that'll support 120 hertz which the new consoles like the ps5 and the xbox will support so look at that again there will be a premium most of the budget tvs won't do that but again invest in a good tv and i would say if you don't like changing your tvs for four or five years and want to keep like that for example i i whenever i invest in a tv i some good tvs and my tvs we generally changed once in about eight nine years and we had very good luck with samsung sony and lg tvs not that good luck with the chinese counterparts we had to change it after two and a half years i'd be very planned about that anyways moving to the next one this is by sarkar with so many moto devices out there which one would be the best mid-range premium mid-range of on the moto to go for um sarkar with moto at least for the gc it's very simple it's the naming for example let's say it's the 30 series let's say 31 then they have the 5 series 50 152 like that the higher the series scores the more premium it is so it's very simple the moto g31 will be the basic the g52 would be the mid-ranger the 72 or the 8182 what is the current one is the flagship so with the g series it's very simple it's the number thing that you're looking at the first number specifies uh which range it is the three means uh lower uh range five is in the middle and of course the higher one seven eight it's on the slightly on the top end again uh with the g series you won't get the cutting edge processor for that you'll have to move to the edge series the edge series are the sort of the premium one in the motor range i hope that answers the question uh this is by mr kumar he says hi sir can you tell us is it worth investing over a lakh for an android phone example the samsung galaxy s22 ultra or stick with iphone okay let me answer this question because i'm getting this question a lot from you guys and i would say at least i'll i'll give you my example of what i would do in my family seeing the situation of the android phone updates that is happening and i'll give you my personal example for example uh mine and if you had the what is that one plus seven pro working perfectly fine just after the ot update the phone became slow sluggish after three days at night and he went to the service center needs to change the motherboard they said i had and for example uh my wife had the galaxy note 20 ultra the phone was working perfectly fine and i had wonder my wife she said one update was coming i told her not to update it but i don't know she forgot about it but accidentally clicked on that update or whatever and the phone got updated and after just two days the display of the phone completely right so i don't get it what is happening with android updates and i'm not just specific to one brand happening a lot with chinese brands and even with premium brands like samsung so i would say i cannot vouch for the longevity of an android phone as of now considering various uh examples that i've seen in my own family so i would say if you are a person and i know for example my friends and some elders also when they are asking me to buy a new phone i know i know they these guys don't want to upgrade every two years or three years they want to keep it for four years and for them all of them i am giving them now an iphone because personally i know we have iphones in our family that are almost six years old and still they are working perfectly fine don't need to upgrade that simply is not the case now with most of the android phone even the flagship ones that is the reason uh i would say if you're changing your phone every two years flying go with an android phone most of the android phones will last for that time but now the problem is with some of the ota updates after one and a half two years these manufacturers are leaving so bad updates on android phones that they are actually breaking the devices having physical problems with the devices that is not the case with the iphones as of now so i would say uh i would go with an iphone because if i know a person who's not that interested in changing the phone he wants the longitudinality of let's say i've invested a lack i want the phone to last for four or five years if that kind of a person then i would recommend the iphone for you and that's the reason uh my second phone is still uh i'm keeping the iphone 13 pro right i i still even have the iphone 10r and works perfectly fine there is no slowdown or anything like that and that's the beauty with an iphone uh you buy an iphone you are not compelled to buy the next version because the ui and general operations is almost the same as the your older iphone apart from one or two new bells and whistles anyways moving to the next one this is by uh uh i am super sum uh i'm a bit more curious about the nothing phone he says what are your thoughts about the phone as the hype is so much in the market i want to know your thoughts yes uh the nothing phone has a lot of hype and i think so that is what that company knows to do that they are the masters of hyping things and that's what they are doing right now teasing stuff in small doses and stuff like that to create your curiosity but to be very frank in even mkbsd posted a video and i did not see that video because i just don't want to fall in for that hype so whenever that phone will come out i will look at it i'm trying to keep all the hype aside because as i've told you guys i'm fed up of this hyping of stuff that is going on in the market i know the phone should be pretty good it'll be having the snapdragon 7 gen 1 so that's a good processor uh first time it will be coming on the nothing phone so uh it's sort of the replacement of the snapdragon 778 which was supposed to be a very good processor so processor wise is very good and i think so the nothing phone will get a lot of basics right but it'll be very interesting to see how do they price it in india as they're going to build it in india so i think so the pricing at least in india will be aggressive anywhere from 30 to 35 000 is my wall park case but whenever the product comes out let's see how it is just don't want to comment about it based on the hypes and the leaks that are going on uh this is by mr cochran uh he says i'm planning to buy a macbook air m2 from my old windows laptop should i wait for the rumored 15 inch m2a i need a dual monitor support and don't want the macbook pro as it's bulky it'll be used for coding browsing youtubing etc no heavy user uh the thing is that as you tell you're waiting for the uh 15 inch macbook air that's rumored guys uh it's just apple rumors based on apple rumors sometime in 2023 you'll get but as you have told you want dual monitor support uh the thing is that apple on the macbook air series do not provide your support for dual monitor support that is reserved for the pro and the higher end series even with the new macbook air m2 you can only connect one external monitor you cannot connect two external monitors so if you want to connect two external monitors you will have to go to the pro series so be aware of that and i think so that's how apple is differentiating their products if you want those dual monitor setups you're sort of a pro user so they are pushing you to the port so even if the macbook air 15 inch comes out rumored whatever in 23 i don't think so apple will support natively dual monitor support on that one they're restricted to the pro series that's my frank opinion even in the pro series for example this is the macbook pro 16 inch i have with the uh uh and it's not the m1 max m1 max supports three monitors this one does supports only two so if i want three monitors i would have go for the max chip so that's how apple is different differentiating their products okay this is the last question so let's get on with this i need my throat is hurting so let's end this uh this is by the way what can uh we expect from the snapdragon 7gen1 which is coming in the nothing phone one also what about the service center india considering it's a new and independent kind of uh company a very interesting question yes i'm pretty sure in terms of performance the snapdragon 7 gen 1 should be very good as i have today it's a replacement of the snapdragon 78 but again guys this chipset won't be exclusive to the nothing phone the first smartphone in india that will be coming out will be the nothing but i'm pretty sure after that many of the other vendors like maybe samsung motorola and others will come out with the other phones with the snapdragon 711 but yeah regarding service centers that is a big question mark with the nothing phone because this is a totally new brand and not part of the oppo bbk group so how will they provide service uh in case of issues in throughout the india is going to be a big question mark let's see what they do so i'm just keeping my fingers across as i've told you uh when the phone comes out i'll definitely try to cover it and then we'll know a lot more so anyways guys that's it for now for this tech q a session and if you guys are still not subscribed to the youtube channel hit that subscribe button this is ranjit and i hope to see you in my next video take care guyshi guys this is ranjit and this is the jung tech q a session and yes i was not feeling well had a coward that's still recovering but i thought let's do the q a and guys i've taken a little bit less questions generally i take about 25 just about half of them but let's get on with this one and this can be interesting because i've taken a variety of questions not just smartphone related uh questions so let's get on with this and the first question i got is the laptop related question he says samsung laptop book 2 uh bro 360 is a good buy my users purely office use constrain the cost is really good buy or is there any other alternative i just want to ask you do you really need that convertible because that 360 is the two in one if you don't care about that 360 thing i would say stick to the regular galaxy book 2 or the galaxy book 2 pro if you really want that light weight the galaxy book 2 pro was very good in fact i had both the galaxy booktube 2 2 360 pro and the regular galaxy

couldn't do a full review but for what it was that laptop it was a decent one i would say uh considering how light they were for the specs okay uh let's move to the next one this is uh mr chakraborty

yes sort of recovering not completely but yeah on the way i would say thank you for asking wanted to know if there is any alternative that comes to a iwatch that is an apple watch in the android space

and still we are using that and it works fine but we didn't bother to upgrade with the latest one because the old one still works fine so again i feel this has become sort of a very niche market if you have a very old tv that does not have smart features or something then you can go with these ones because the tv might be perfectly working fine so that was the case with the samsung tv that we have is picture quality everything is working perfectly even but because it's become so old some that smart features are irrelevant that's why that smart uh what do you say amazon fire stick makes sense on that but again if you have a modern tv these don't make sense anyways moving to the next one this is from mr air please recommend a tv requirement is to watch movies in the best resolution and to play games on ps5 xbox need to be smart tv as well screen size 55 to 60 inches which should be ideal for my home uh if recommending chinese brand uh how safe are they okay let's first talk about sizes because i have multiple screens for example we have 55 tv in the house 65 and even 75 and i would say for most of them uh most of you guys the sweet spot is between 55 to 65 the 75 becomes just too big in my frank opinion so again based on your what he says area what do you have the screen a 55 should be good enough but if you have a slightly larger space or something a 65 might even do good because these days uh the pricing prequel for the 65 is not that high the 75 is still very high so look for that of course it will be a 4k tv no need to go over the 8k as of now and if you want that future proofing make sure it has supports hdmi 2.1 because that'll support 120 hertz which the new consoles like the ps5 and the xbox will support so look at that again there will be a premium most of the budget tvs won't do that but again invest in a good tv and i would say if you don't like changing your tvs for four or five years and want to keep like that for example i i whenever i invest in a tv i some good tvs and my tvs we generally changed once in about eight nine years and we had very good luck with samsung sony and lg tvs not that good luck with the chinese counterparts we had to change it after two and a half years i'd be very planned about that anyways moving to the next one this is by sarkar with so many moto devices out there which one would be the best mid-range premium mid-range of on the moto to go for um sarkar with moto at least for the gc it's very simple it's the naming for example let's say it's the 30 series let's say 31 then they have the 5 series 50 152 like that the higher the series scores the more premium it is so it's very simple the moto g31 will be the basic the g52 would be the mid-ranger the 72 or the 8182 what is the current one is the flagship so with the g series it's very simple it's the number thing that you're looking at the first number specifies uh which range it is the three means uh lower uh range five is in the middle and of course the higher one seven eight it's on the slightly on the top end again uh with the g series you won't get the cutting edge processor for that you'll have to move to the edge series the edge series are the sort of the premium one in the motor range i hope that answers the question uh this is by mr kumar he says hi sir can you tell us is it worth investing over a lakh for an android phone example the samsung galaxy s22 ultra or stick with iphone okay let me answer this question because i'm getting this question a lot from you guys and i would say at least i'll i'll give you my example of what i would do in my family seeing the situation of the android phone updates that is happening and i'll give you my personal example for example uh mine and if you had the what is that one plus seven pro working perfectly fine just after the ot update the phone became slow sluggish after three days at night and he went to the service center needs to change the motherboard they said i had and for example uh my wife had the galaxy note 20 ultra the phone was working perfectly fine and i had wonder my wife she said one update was coming i told her not to update it but i don't know she forgot about it but accidentally clicked on that update or whatever and the phone got updated and after just two days the display of the phone completely right so i don't get it what is happening with android updates and i'm not just specific to one brand happening a lot with chinese brands and even with premium brands like samsung so i would say i cannot vouch for the longevity of an android phone as of now considering various uh examples that i've seen in my own family so i would say if you are a person and i know for example my friends and some elders also when they are asking me to buy a new phone i know i know they these guys don't want to upgrade every two years or three years they want to keep it for four years and for them all of them i am giving them now an iphone because personally i know we have iphones in our family that are almost six years old and still they are working perfectly fine don't need to upgrade that simply is not the case now with most of the android phone even the flagship ones that is the reason uh i would say if you're changing your phone every two years flying go with an android phone most of the android phones will last for that time but now the problem is with some of the ota updates after one and a half two years these manufacturers are leaving so bad updates on android phones that they are actually breaking the devices having physical problems with the devices that is not the case with the iphones as of now so i would say uh i would go with an iphone because if i know a person who's not that interested in changing the phone he wants the longitudinality of let's say i've invested a lack i want the phone to last for four or five years if that kind of a person then i would recommend the iphone for you and that's the reason uh my second phone is still uh i'm keeping the iphone 13 pro right i i still even have the iphone 10r and works perfectly fine there is no slowdown or anything like that and that's the beauty with an iphone uh you buy an iphone you are not compelled to buy the next version because the ui and general operations is almost the same as the your older iphone apart from one or two new bells and whistles anyways moving to the next one this is by uh uh i am super sum uh i'm a bit more curious about the nothing phone he says what are your thoughts about the phone as the hype is so much in the market i want to know your thoughts yes uh the nothing phone has a lot of hype and i think so that is what that company knows to do that they are the masters of hyping things and that's what they are doing right now teasing stuff in small doses and stuff like that to create your curiosity but to be very frank in even mkbsd posted a video and i did not see that video because i just don't want to fall in for that hype so whenever that phone will come out i will look at it i'm trying to keep all the hype aside because as i've told you guys i'm fed up of this hyping of stuff that is going on in the market i know the phone should be pretty good it'll be having the snapdragon 7 gen 1 so that's a good processor uh first time it will be coming on the nothing phone so uh it's sort of the replacement of the snapdragon 778 which was supposed to be a very good processor so processor wise is very good and i think so the nothing phone will get a lot of basics right but it'll be very interesting to see how do they price it in india as they're going to build it in india so i think so the pricing at least in india will be aggressive anywhere from 30 to 35 000 is my wall park case but whenever the product comes out let's see how it is just don't want to comment about it based on the hypes and the leaks that are going on uh this is by mr cochran uh he says i'm planning to buy a macbook air m2 from my old windows laptop should i wait for the rumored 15 inch m2a i need a dual monitor support and don't want the macbook pro as it's bulky it'll be used for coding browsing youtubing etc no heavy user uh the thing is that as you tell you're waiting for the uh 15 inch macbook air that's rumored guys uh it's just apple rumors based on apple rumors sometime in 2023 you'll get but as you have told you want dual monitor support uh the thing is that apple on the macbook air series do not provide your support for dual monitor support that is reserved for the pro and the higher end series even with the new macbook air m2 you can only connect one external monitor you cannot connect two external monitors so if you want to connect two external monitors you will have to go to the pro series so be aware of that and i think so that's how apple is differentiating their products if you want those dual monitor setups you're sort of a pro user so they are pushing you to the port so even if the macbook air 15 inch comes out rumored whatever in 23 i don't think so apple will support natively dual monitor support on that one they're restricted to the pro series that's my frank opinion even in the pro series for example this is the macbook pro 16 inch i have with the uh uh and it's not the m1 max m1 max supports three monitors this one does supports only two so if i want three monitors i would have go for the max chip so that's how apple is different differentiating their products okay this is the last question so let's get on with this i need my throat is hurting so let's end this uh this is by the way what can uh we expect from the snapdragon 7gen1 which is coming in the nothing phone one also what about the service center india considering it's a new and independent kind of uh company a very interesting question yes i'm pretty sure in terms of performance the snapdragon 7 gen 1 should be very good as i have today it's a replacement of the snapdragon 78 but again guys this chipset won't be exclusive to the nothing phone the first smartphone in india that will be coming out will be the nothing but i'm pretty sure after that many of the other vendors like maybe samsung motorola and others will come out with the other phones with the snapdragon 711 but yeah regarding service centers that is a big question mark with the nothing phone because this is a totally new brand and not part of the oppo bbk group so how will they provide service uh in case of issues in throughout the india is going to be a big question mark let's see what they do so i'm just keeping my fingers across as i've told you uh when the phone comes out i'll definitely try to cover it and then we'll know a lot more so anyways guys that's it for now for this tech q a session and if you guys are still not
