A Glimpse into the Past: The Revival of Campbell's Apartment at The Ritz-Carlton New York, Central Park

In 1923, John W. Campbell, an American financier and board member of the New York Central Railroad, leased a spacious room that would become one of the most iconic spaces in Manhattan. Initially designed as an office by day and a reception hall for entertaining friends at night, the space was transformed into an opulent retreat that epitomized luxury and sophistication. The room's design featured a hand-painted plaster of Paris ceiling, leaded windows, and a Persian carpet that cost a staggering $300,000 at the time – equivalent to approximately $3.5 million today.

After Campbell's passing in 1957, his apartment fell into disrepair, with the rug being the first item to disappear. The space was restored in 1999 and relaunched as Campbell's Apartment, a bar that retained its original charm and character. In 2016, the apartment lost its lease in a bidding war for the space, only to be resold by a new company that sought to revive the historic space. Today, Campbell's Apartment has been reimagined as an upscale bar, with the original design elements still intact. The space includes Campbell's Bar, the Palm Court, and the Terrace, all of which offer stunning views of Central Park.

A Real World Test: Unboxing and First Impressions of the Samsung Galaxy S22

As a tech enthusiast, I was eager to get my hands on the Samsung Galaxy S22, one of the most highly anticipated smartphones of the year. I decided to put it through its paces in real-world conditions to see how it performs in everyday use. I started by unboxing the phone and taking it for a spin around the block. The device's battery life was impressive, lasting a full day even with heavy usage. However, it was the fast charging capabilities that truly impressed me – the 33W fast charger paired with the 5W reverse charger allowed me to regain approximately 40% of the battery in just 30 minutes.

The phone's performance was also noteworthy, handling demanding tasks such as gaming and video editing with ease. The display was vibrant and crisp, making it perfect for watching videos or browsing the web on the go. However, I did notice some occasional lag when switching between apps or navigating through menus. The camera was a highlight of the device, capturing stunning images in various lighting conditions.

Software Updates: A Closer Look at Samsung's Android 12 Implementation

Upon booting up the phone, it became clear that Samsung had taken a more conservative approach to its Android 12 implementation. While some features such as the new matrix font were added throughout the UI, there was no comprehensive overhaul of the software experience. Instead, Samsung opted for incremental updates that focused on refining existing features rather than introducing radical changes.

One notable feature is the integration of third-party controls, with Tesla being one of the first apps to take advantage of this functionality. Users can now unlock their doors and start their cars using the phone's display. This is a welcome addition, especially for those who value convenience and ease of use.

Pricing and Availability: Is the Samsung Galaxy S22 Worth the Hype?

The Samsung Galaxy S22 is set to launch in the UK market with a base price of $485 – approximately £399. While this may seem steep, considering the device's features and performance, it's worth noting that the phone will not be available in the United States at present.

Comparing the phone to other devices in its class, such as the Pixel 6A, is also interesting. The Pixel 6A offers better camera capabilities, snappier performance, and a slightly lower price point. However, if budget is no concern, the Samsung Galaxy S22 offers a unique design experience that sets it apart from its competitors.

Real-World Test: A Glimpse into the Life of New York City

As I navigated through the streets of Manhattan, I couldn't help but feel overwhelmed by the cacophony of sounds and sights. From car horns to construction noise, the city never seems to sleep. Even in one of its most tranquil parks, such as Central Park, I found myself exposed to a wide range of noises – from pedestrians chattering to birdsong.

The experience was both refreshing and invigorating, serving as a stark reminder that even in the midst of urban chaos, there is always something new to discover. As I continued my exploration, I realized that this dynamic environment – where contrasts blend seamlessly together – is what makes New York City so unique and captivating.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enmorning another day another Rew test today we're doing it on the nothing phone one and I'm going to test out the phone throughout the day all while we explore as pretty usual but first things first no no wa at all thank you have a great day to coffee check and this is Bryant Park a 4 acre park that's kind of like the backyard to the New York Public Library originally around when the grid system of streets was being designed for this still as of yet rural area of Manhattan in the early 1800s this lot and where the public library is was actually a Potter's field which is a nice way of saying a graveyard for people who couldn't afford the fancier graveyards at the time shortly thereafter in 1840 the city began to construct the codin Distributing Reservoir which was a giant Reservoir with 50t walls that were 25 ft thick for fresh water for the city coming from the much larger receiving Reservoir that is actually where Central Park now sits and all of that was coming from the croin reservoir 41 Mi north of the city through giant pipes powered only by gravity if you didn't see my DJI mini3 Pro real world test I actually go and visit that Reservoir if you want to check that out I'll leave a link below next to the reservoir though a public park was made in 187 and eventually the reservoir was removed and the park was extended now it eventually would get the name Bryant Park to honor the longtime editor of the New York Evening Post William Cullen Bryant in 1884 and that's when the library was commissioned to be built the park would go through a lot between then and now with periods of construction and deconstruction and even crime it would eventually be redesigned though in the early '90s to more or less the same layout that we have here now with more and more attractions and events added since and now it's a great little spot to just have a coffee and maybe work using the free Wi-Fi that they have or just kind of hang out all right while we're here though let's talk a bit about the design now the phone has glass on the front and back with a aluminum frame around the edges and that's a kind of straight edged aluminum frame not going to lie there's another phone that looks and feels similar to this one because of that but it does feel lighter than the size would suggest and while it does come in two colors white and black both have probably the most recognizable feature about it which is a transparent back like the '90s are making a comeback now that transparent back does allow for another feature which are essentially LEDs here in the back called glyphs but we'll go into a bit more detail on that later and if you're not familiar this is actually the second product from the company nothing the first product was the ear ones I guess but those were also transparent and so we're sensing a pattern for all of their products most likely on the other side of the device we have the OLED 6.55 in screen that has a 1080p resol resolution and 120 HZ refresh rate which just means that things on the screen seem smoother because of the amount of animations per second that I can handle and overall the screen does look nice colors are bright and contrast is good uh and that 120 HZ does help make things feel even smoother now under that display we have a fingerprint sensor that works well actually and I like the fact that it has an alwayson Circle to just show you where to put your finger so you don't have to rely on muscle memory alone and lastly the phone is ip53 rated so it can handle kind of caught in the rain and some light sprinklings of water and dust okay it's hot so uh let's go check out another place that was kind of built around the same time as the library and this parking in a similar style but we can be inside of it and it has air conditioning pants were a bad idea today sweet sweet air conditioning welcome to Grand Central we've definitely been here multiple times in other videos but today we're not going to get on train so in the mid 1800s there were multiple competing railroads that went to various different places three of these the New York and Harlem railroad the Hudson River Railroad and New York and New Haven railroad agreed that a unified station for the mall in New York City would make a lot of sense this station was originally called the Grand Central Depot and it opened in 1871 and was put here at this location specifically because earlier in 1854 the city banned steam engines because of the soot that they just kind of spewed all the time below 42nd Street at the time everything above that was pretty rural so 42nd Street made sense for where the trains would terminate but the city's demand for Transit quickly out the original station and as was the usual back then a design competition was had in 1903 with the winning company Reed and stem along with another company that was hired to do the outside separately getting to create what is now called Grand Central Terminal even though a lot of people call it Grand Central Station myself included that's technically the name of the post office building nearby as well as the subway station underneath here this is the terminal and it is the largest train station in the world both in terms of size but also number of platforms it's 49 acres and has 44 platforms that are all housed underground but what it's probably most known for is the Apple Store just kidding it's this main Concourse and this ceiling now this ceiling is based off of Johan Bayer's 16003 star Atlas called your ranom Tri I don't know fun fact though it's backwards East is West and West is East so the speculation is that someone projected this design from the ground onto the ceiling so that it could be painted and that reversed it we're not changing it now while we're here though and speaking of shiny lights like the stars let's talk about the design feature that everyone's curious about on this phone behind our transparent glass back are a series of LEDs and a few different sections that collectively nothing calls glyphs basically you get a series of custom ringtones and notifications 10 of each that play sounds as you know they would do but each has a corresponding pattern of flashes from the LEDs this means that you can essentially choose whatever pattern you want for anything that you can set a ringtone or a notification for so one for everything but also specific ones for specific notifications in each app or even phone calls from specific contacts you can't sadly set them for text for specific contacts though and that's the gist honestly but there are a few things to know firstly they only work when the screen is off so if you're using the phone at all it won't light up at least I can't find a way to get it to I'd like to be able to have it flash all the time just even like as an option I want it to be obnoxious I want an obnoxious mode that I can turn on now look I totally get why they did it this way but as this is sort of the biggest feature of this phone I should be able to just turn this on so I can you know show it off now one of the main ways that you can see the pretty lights light up is using flip to glyph now this feature allows you to flip over the phone face down and it'll silence the phone I feel like everyone I know actually has their phone on vibrate at this point but this will then turn off the vibration and that'll allow the lights to be the only way that you'll be notified and it's kind of Novel but it also means that you better leave the screen protector that comes with the phone on as you will as I have already noticed on this unit scratch the hell out of the screen by doing so now if you don't want to be as obnoxious as I'd like to be with these they are really bright by default to make sure that you can see them in the daylight I imagine but you can also adjust the brightness in the settings easy enough now the lights also serve a few other functions like a charging indicator that fills as the phone charges there's a fill light option for video instead of the camera flash that's a bit softer there's also a blinking red light that you can turn on for whenever you're recording video if you want and if you save a contact as Abra as in Abracadabra I imagine and then set a ringtone to them in the glyph menu you can get a hidden option to use the lights as a music visualizer that'll flash to whatever sounds are coming out of the speakers honestly the lights are a fun differentiator and it's nice to see any company trying new design things but how often will you use it once the novelty wears off and when you can lay your phone face up like most people do anyway you already get notifications that have you know icons and texts to tell you what they are so I don't know trailer full like a advertisement for the Multiverse Marvel movies of some sort little intense in omage the transparent back of his phone let's check a pretty impressive see-through observation deck near Grand Central called Summit 1 vanderville this experiential observation deck is the top three floors of a building called one vanderville it's the fourth tallest building in New York City behind One World Trade Central Park Tower and 111 West 57th Street and there's actually a connection between Grand Central and this building underground and it was part of a deal actually to let the tower even be built in the first place they had to provide improvements to the subway station underneath the building which actually ended up allowing it to accommodate 65,000 more Passengers The Summit one Vanderbilt is 93 stories high and is comprised of a few different installations art installations meant to mimic clouds rooms that have mirrors all over the place to give a very interesting feeling while you're this high up and even a bar that apparently turns into like a nightclub towards the end of the night H now personally I think I prefer the One World trades Vibe but definitely an interesting observation deck and the views don't suck now while we're here though this seems like a good of place as any to test out the nothing phone 1's cameras so firstly we have a 50 megapixel f1.9 main camera with Optical stabilization 1 Micron size pixels and it's about 24 mm equivalent and then we have another 50 megapix f2.2 aperture ultrawide camera with 64 Micron sized pixels now both these cameras have their pixels Bend IN sets of four which gives you a 12.5 megapixel image when you're done and that's to increase theze size of each pixel which improves low light performance now we also have a two times button in the viewfinder and that's not a separate camera obviously but it does a two times digital Zoom of the main sensor in addition to that we have a 16 mapel selfie camera and we can shoot 4K 30 on the rear cameras and 1080p on the front one and something I have to commend nothing for here they have a macro mode but they didn't use a separate macro camera I've said this a million times in the of other videos but I hate when companies just put macro cameras or depth sensors on the back of the phone just to say they have an extra camera when we already know you don't need that Hardware case in point here with the nothing phone to do macro mode this is the Campbell it's a bar that was originally just one room that was created out of the office of John W Campbell an American financier from back in the early 1900s who was also on the board of directors for New York Central Railroad he leased this space in 1923 and began adding opulence from a hand painted plaster of Paris ceiling to leaded Windows to even a Persian carpet that at the time cost $300,000 that's the equivalent of $3.5 million today it would be an office by day and he would turn into a reception hall for entertaining friends at night now after he died in 1957 the rug was the first thing to disappear it was restored in 1999 and turned into a bar utilizing the same style and even keeping the faux fireplace and Campbell's steel safe that he had inside of that the original bar called Campbell's apartment lost its lease in 2016 in a bidding war for the space and now it's owned by a new company that relaunched it as the Campbell they even expanded it to have the original area called Campbell's bar the Campbell Palm Court just outside of that in the atrium and Campbell's Terrace outside the building on the side of grand now last time I was here it was Campbell's apartment and while it feels a little different than it did for one like the strict dress code is no longer a thing the Campbell's bar area still retains its old school chart so at Summit one Vanderbilt the phone died so here is the battery usage and screen out time and all that for anyone who's curious about that now obviously keep in mind today was not a normal day it was a real world test I used the camera a ton and so here's how that did with that but here's another day where I use the phone a lot more normally so you could have something to compare that to and honestly the battery feels okay it has 33 wat fast charging and Chi 15 watt as well as reverse charging in the form of 5 wat but there is no charger in the Box I after it was about to die plugged it into my fast charging little battery pack and we gained 40% back in 30 minutes now for the software on the phone the operating system is Android 12 and it's it's clean it hasn't really been touched much it feels a bit like how the pixel does at least in that respect and nothing is added their signature do Matrix font just sprinkled throughout the UI in addition to that nothing also is supposedly adding in support for third parties to put their controls in the operating system itself right now Tesla is there and it lets you unlock the doors and start the AC this is all listed under experimental features okay calling in a night and the truth is this isn't a bad phone considering the price now to be clear it is not launching in the United States anytime soon at least but based on its UK price of 399 that equates to about $485 and that's for the base model 8 gigs of RAM and 128 gigs of storage now the battery is decent the performance is pretty Snappy compared to most other devices in this price range even if it does slow down here and there and it's not quite as fast as another device that I'll talk about more in a second and I also have to commend them for at least trying something different design wise I'll leave it up to you guys to let me know in the comments below if you think it's just a gimmick or would you actually use it always appreciate hearing from you guys personally though I'd probably recommend the pixel 6A over this it has maybe a little bit better of a battery definitely has a better camera it's snappier performance- wise and it even costs a little bit less but besides that phone it's not a bad contenter for $500 but you guys let me know in the comments below what you think of the phone of my video always appreciate hearing from you guys I'll also leave a link below to the best price that I could find on this phone and if you like this video you want to explore some more with me check out the rest of the real world test series I'll link that around here somewhere and if you really like it please subscribe and ding the Bell so you get notified whenever I do new videos as always though regardless thanks for watching you think when you're like in a park you not going to have as much noises but no this is New York City all of our Parks surrounded by sounds we can't win that is six it's like he waits for me to talk and I just click click clicko just as you go to record train announcements she just made this announcement they get it it's boarding soon I'm just angry this is actually very useful information I know it's my fault should not be filming in an active train station one of the busiest in the world probably should have thought that throughmorning another day another Rew test today we're doing it on the nothing phone one and I'm going to test out the phone throughout the day all while we explore as pretty usual but first things first no no wa at all thank you have a great day to coffee check and this is Bryant Park a 4 acre park that's kind of like the backyard to the New
