Youtube daily Nov 5 2017

- Hey guys, this is Austin.

Today is the launch of the iPhone X

which could be the most hyped phone of the year,

well, unless you count this of course.

I recently did a video on the Pixel 2,

and I came away with it thinking that it is one

of my favorite phones I've ever tried,

but how does it stack up to the iPhone X?

So if we pop this guy open,

we see designed by Apple in California.

Who cares about that?

What I care about is the iPhone X.

Wow, it actually is a little bit thicker than I thought.

It's probably about the same as something like the 8,

but, interesting.

The black looks really nice,

so that along with the metal band

that's sort of this dark chrome,

this is a good looking phone.

But before we get too far into it,

let's see what else we get.

Surprise, surprise!

Inside the box is the standard power adapter,

even though this iPhone supports not only wireless charging

but also fast charging.

But, this works.

We also get a pair of Lightning EarPods

as well as the Lightning to 3.5 millimeter adapter.

The same as pretty much all of the iPhone 7s, 8s,

that kind of thing.

There is a Lightning to USB cable.

So with the iPhone X powered up,

the first thing I noticed is the notch.

Now to be fair, the bezels around the rest of the phone

are really tiny, probably smaller than pretty much anything

besides maybe something like the Galaxy S8.

But the notch, it's noticeable,

although I don't think it's gonna be that big of a deal.

Just using it for three seconds,

I've almost forgot it's there.

Put the iPhone side by side with the Pixel 2

and the Pixel 2 XL,

and you'll see it's actually fairly similar

to the size of the standard Pixel.

Now that is even including the fact that this has

a 5.8 inch display which is nearly as big

as the six inch display on the XL 2.

All of this being said,

I actually prefer the standard size of the Pixel 2

for reasons that I'll get into in a minute,

but it is hard to argue with just how nice

of a piece of hardware the iPhone X is.

My only slight issue with the hardware is the camera hump.

It's a lot larger than I would expect.

Now to be fair, the Pixel XL 2 does have a little bit

of a camera hump, but compared to the iPhone X

which just kind of rattles around,

it's a lot bigger.

On the other hand,

the iPhone X does support wireless charging

where the aluminum-backed Pixel 2 does not.

Both phones are IP67 rated which means that in theory,

they should survive under one meter of water for 30 minutes.

However if you watched my iPhone 7 Plus video last year,

it died in about seven seconds of being in a bowl of water.

So,

here goes nothing.

Ugh!

Ooh!

All right, iPhone X is in.

Now let's get the Pixel in.

Okay, well, the water is going over the table,

but the screens are on.

I'm going to leave them in for one minute

because I don't wanna break my phones.

Hey, I'm just being honest. (chuckles)

All right, so,

(chuckles) water's going everywhere.

It looks like both phones are fine.

Sweet!

I don't have to spend a bunch of money

on new phones. (laughs)

Inside the iPhone X is the Apple A11 Bionic chip

which has three high-power cores

and three low-power cores,

three gigabytes of RAM,

and either 64 or 256 gigs of storage.

On the other hand,

the Pixel 2 has the Snapdragon 835

which takes four high-power cores

and four low-power cores,

puts them together with four gigs of RAM

and either 64 or 128 gigabytes of storage.

When you take a look at the performance

in Geekbench, though, it is not even close.

The iPhone X is hands down the fastest phone out there.

On the graphics side with GFXBench,

while it's a little bit closer,

it's still really hard to argue with the iPhone X

which is really impressive considering

that the iPhone has two fewer cores.

At this point, not only is it faster than pretty much

any other phone out there,

but it's starting to approach a lot of high-end laptops.

Of course, benchmarks are one thing,

and the real world use is another.

So the Pixel 2 is hands down the fastest Android phone

I've ever tried,

even though, yes, on paper,

it might not be quite as fast as the iPhone.

In actual practical use,

it's really hard to see a difference.

Something that the iPhone X dropped

but the Pixel 2 still has is the fingerprint sensor.

I've gotta say this one is great.

Not only is it placed on the back of the phone,

which is really simple to get at,

but it's also incredibly quick.

So to setup Face ID on the iPhone,

it should be pretty simple.

All I need to do is look all the way around,

and it should scan my face.

Raise the phone,

and swipe up,

and it's unlocked.

That's actually pretty quick.

I'm curious, though, how well Face ID works

when it's laying flat on something like a table.

I'll try to unlock it here,

swipe up.

Oh, it got it!

All right.

I still have my reservations

about how good Face ID is going to be in the long run,

but at first glance, it actually does seem to be

pretty well implemented.

While it's not the most practical thing,

I've gotta say that Animoji on the iPhone X are kind of fun.

So if I hit record here,

hey guys, this is Austin.

Are Animoji worth it?

Well you do need to learn some new gestures on the iPhone X.

So instead of having a Home button,

instead you swipe from the bottom to leave an app,

and then you swipe up and to the right

to pull up your multitasking.

From here, you can go between your different apps

or you can use the little thing on the bottom

to actually scroll between which app is open.

It does take a little bit of getting used to,

but it's actually not bad.

In comparison, the Pixel 2 feels downright normal.

So there are some cool features

such as the always-on display

which I like to be able to see stuff

like time, date, notifications at a glance.

The Pixel also has Google Assistant

which I like a lot more than Siri.

To activate you just need to squeeze the frame of the phone.

The main feature of the iPhone X, though,

is absolutely the display.

It's rocking a 5.8 inch, 2436

by 1124

AMOLED display.

Not only is this the first time that Apple's gone with OLED,

but as you can see, the bezels are absolutely tiny.

What this means is that you're basically getting

an iPhone-8 sized chassis

but with a much, much larger screen.

I've gotta say it works.

It's right up there with the Galaxy S8

and Note8 as far as some of the best screens out there.

So it's nice and saturated,

it's pretty sharp.

While there is just a little bit of color shifting

when you look at it off angle,

it is nowhere near as bad as the Pixels.

The standard Pixel 2 has a pretty decent

1080p five inch OLED display.

While it's nothing spectacular,

it totally gets the job done.

When you switch to the Pixel 2 XL though,

that's where you take a hard turn into garbage town.

When you look at it dead on,

the colors are okay, but stuff like reds

look awfully brown.

When you look at it off angle,

it looks very blue.

There've been a lot of reports of issues

with screen burn-in.

Now Google will be releasing an update

which will supposedly help some of this stuff,

but when you compare it to the iPhone X,

it is no competition.

At the very least,

audio is an area where neither of these phones

have major issues.

They both have stereo speakers.

Hey guys, this is Austin.

Inside this mysterious brown box is what I very much hope

is the Xbox One X,

but the question is,

is it worth it?

So first of all--

You know what?

I think they both sound good,

but I actually do have to give the lead to the Pixel.

It's a little bit louder and a little bit clearer.

Of course, that's not a big deal

when you plug in a pair of headphones

as both of these have headphone jacks.

Oh, oh, right, it's 2017.

Neither of them have a headphone jack.

Cameras is where both of these phones really excel.

The Pixel 2 has a 12 megapixel camera,

and the iPhone X has a pair of them.

One wide-angle, one telephoto.

While it might only have a single camera,

some of the images that I've gotten

from the Pixel 2 really are incredible.

The auto HDR does a great job of bringing

a ton of dynamic range into a shot.

It does a really good job of being very, very sharp.

It's also optically stabilized just like the iPhone.

The low-light performance is not bad either.

There's really not a lot to complain about with the Pixel.

When it comes to the iPhone X,

you're also getting solid dynamic range.

Because it is the same camera from the 8

as well as the 8 Plus,

you're also getting nice saturation.

A lot of the images look a little bit punchier

than on the Pixel.

Both cameras also have Portrait mode.

So let's start with the iPhone X.

That's not bad.

Some of the advantages of this phone

is that both of the cameras are optically stabilized

which actually does make a pretty big difference

for the Portrait mode compared to the 8 Plus.

On the other hand,

the Pixel 2's Portrait mode is purely based on software.

So,

if you look closely,

you'll see that it's not quite perfect.

Some of the edges are a little bit soft.

It doesn't fully blur the background in this shot.

But a lot of times, I actually prefer the results

from the Pixel 2, which is really impressive

considering that it doesn't have that second camera.

Where it really shines is with selfie-Portrait mode.

Yeah look at that, that's great!

So not only does it do a really good job with the hair,

but the background is very naturally blurred.

We take a look at it on the iPhone X,

yeah, that's just not as good.

You can see that my hair is a little bit blurry.

It didn't really perfectly cut my shirt

out of the background either.

Video is also solid.

So this is what the 4K 24 looks like

from the iPhone X,

and especially when you look at stuff like

stabilization and color, it's nice!

If you switch over to the Pixel,

it is also pretty solid,

although one of my big problems with this mode

is that the audio just isn't very good.

Both the iPhone X and Pixel 2

are incredibly expensive phones.

So the Pixel 2 pairs one of the best cameras

on a smartphone with solid audio,

and a really impressive build of Android.

The iPhone has my favorite hardware of any phone ever,

and the screen is right up there with the best

like the Galaxy S8 and the Note 8

which is where the Pixel falls apart.

When it comes to spending $850 on a smartphone,

a bad screen is a straight up deal breaker for me,

which leaves the standard Pixel 2.

When you consider that it is $350 cheaper

than the iPhone X,

I'm willing to put up with the less impressive screen

and the giant bezels.

It really is a crazy, crazy good phone!

If you have the budget,

you're not gonna be disappointed with the iPhone X,

but for a lot of people,

the standard Pixel 2 actually makes a lot of sense.

So which one would you guys go for?

Let me know in the comments below,

and I will catch you in the next one.

The truth about the Google Pixel 2! - Duration: 12:19.

(pretty digital music)

- Yo guys, Jonathan here.

This is the Google Pixel Two and the Pixel Two XL,

the almost perfect smartphones.

Now when these were announced, everybody was excited.

The XL marked scores through the roof.

Finally a bezel-less display, at least in the Pixel

Two XL but then, devices started rolling out.

People started started getting 'em in hand and it almost

turned into this horror story for Google.

(dramatic music)

Now aside from the beat down Google's taken over the

past couple of weeks, there's actually a lot to

like about the Pixel Two and its bigger brother.

So what's kind of weird is both the Pixel Two and

Pixel Two Xl come in different color variants.

With the regular version we have just black, clearly

white and kinda blue.

Like the XL Two screen.

(extreme alarm)

Is that right?

On a serious note though, I actually really like the

kinda blue.

It is a super soft, almost bluish-mint color.

I even prefer it over last year's really blue.

Jumpin' over to the Pixel Two XL, this actually comes in

two colors: just black and black and white, aka panda.

Now if you ordered a regular Pixel and you need some of that

panda action in your life, the easiest fix for that, is

to hit up the robots and throw a dbrand skin on it.

This is not a panda, but it sure as hell looks like one.

They even got you Dodger fans covered, too.

Links are below.

So when you stack the Pixel Two and the Pixel Two XL

side-by-side, the very apparent bezels on the regular

Pixel Two really stand out.

The Pixel Two XL looks like it's a phone from 2017, whereas

the regular Pixel Two kinda feels a little dated.

Regardless, though, the layout on either of these phones

is awesome.

I really enjoy the location of the fingerprint reader on

the back.

It works flawlessly.

The volume up and down buttons are right smack next to your

thumb; super easy to access.

Same thing with the power button.

It just feels good.

Now the bottom of the Pixel Two there is a usb-c port

which is always awesome.

There is no wireless charging with this which for me

is not a deal-breaker.

Some people either really, really love wireless charging

or some people don't care at all.

I would love to hear what side of the fence you're on.

Regardless, though, wireless charging not a positive with

the Pixel Two as you're getting up to seven hours of

battery life with 15 minutes of charging.

There's absolutely no room to complain about that.

From there you might notice that usb-c port's kind of

just hanging out there by himself.

There is no headphone jack, and the only weird part

about that is Google made a really big deal about the

headphone jack last year when the Pixel debuted

and this year they were kinda like,

(intense music).

On a serious note though, I don't think not having a

headphone jack is a deal-breaker.

Especially for me.

Anytime I can go wireless, I am going to go that route.

Yes, there's the whole debate about audio quality and

having a wired cable but for me, there are tons of fantastic

sounding wireless bluetooth headphones out there, so

I'm gonna go that way.

So while Google did cut off the headphone jack, one

giant feature they added this year is water-resistance,

and that might be reason alone to upgrade over last year's

Pixel.

Maybe if someone who always has their phones near the

water or if you're in the shower or a bath, super staff.

Now when you pick up your shiny new Pixel Two or

Pixel Two XL, in the box you get an 18 watt usb-c charger,

the usb-c cable, and a usb-c 3.5 millimeter audio adapter.

So just in case you're holding on to those wired headphones,

you can use it out of the box.

What's kind of weird though is there are no headphones

in sight within this box.

It would have been really nice to have a pair of usb-c

headphones with the Pixel Two.

On the other hand you have companies like Samsung going

above and beyond and including a nicer pair of headphones.

So if that matters to you, that is some food for thought.

From there it's time to hope over to probably the most

controversial subject with the Pixel Two, and that is the

display.

Specifically that it's geared more towards the Pixel Two

XL display as opposed to the regular Pixel Two.

That features a five inch, 1920 by 1080 amoled display,

whereas the Pixel Two XL features a six inch, 2880 by 1440

p oled display, which seems to be causing all kinds of

problems.

Like there's no denying there is a very apparent problem

with the Pixel Two XL screen.

There is major blue shift (mumbles) access this like,

any sort of way.

The part where it gets a little tricky though is, I think

if you just handed this phone to the average person out

there, they are not gonna pick up on this.

It is the super tech audience that is going deep, diving

deep and really getting crazy technical with this,

like throwing it down to 10, 15% brightness with a

gray screen, like that is kinda crazy.

Is that reason enough, just for the screen, to not buy

the Pixel Two XL?

I'm gonna say no, because there are many, many enticing

features with the Pixel Two XL, it's just very

disappointing, because if there was ever a company that

you would root for to put Apple and kinda kick their ass,

it is Google.

They're giant.

This is a flagship phone with flagship pricing, and you

would expect better from them.

So with that, it's kind of confusing and has me a little

torn.

On one hand, you have the regular Pixel Two which has a

totally fine display but really, really big bezels,

and then you have the Pixel Two XL which is kind of like

that person that you see from a distance.

It's good from far, but you get it up close and it is

far from good.

- Blech!

- On top of that, I do get that Google was going for that

non-saturated look that we've kind of grown accustomed to

with smartphones over the years, but the fact of the matter

is, certain colors just look really off, especially with

red.

Again, it's not a bad display, and I don't think it's

just solely be a reason to turn you off from the Pixel Two

or Pixel Two XL, but when you compare it to something like

a Samsung Galaxy S Eight or Note Eight, there is

no comparison.

Now packed inside the Pixel Two is a Snapdragon 835,

four gigabytes of ram.

There is no micro sd card expansion, but there is a

really solid amount of storage with these.

The base Pixel Two comes in at 64 gigs or you can bump

it all the way up 128 gigabytes.

On top of that you also do have unlimited storage with

Google Photos so yeah, that is definitely a thing.

For me though, now that we got the ugly, controversial

part out the way, there is a lot to love about the Pixel Two

and Pixel Two XL.

For starters, out of the box you are getting sweet, sweet,

pure, unadulterated Android 8.0 Oreo.

It's super clean, super smooth, and unlike other Android

phones, Google is promising three years of support and

updates.

I really, really love the wallpapers, especially the live

versions.

Those are just kind of fun to look at and zone out at.

And what is really, really freaking cool with these, is that

it's smart enough to know what your wallpaper is.

So if you have a dark one, gonna automatically switch the

theme of your phone to dark and if you have a light

wallpaper, it will automatically switch it to light.

Now I wouldn't mind if we claimed it as geared specifically

towards the Pixel Two XL is because it has that extra tall

18 by nine screen.

I wish they would implement some sort of feature like

Samsung does where we can punch in or crop it on YouTube

videos.

It's not the end of the world, but just something I would

like to see in the future.

From here I wanna talk about Google Assist, and also roll

in the squeeze feature because that is one way to access the

Google Assistant.

Is this a revolutionary, mind-blowing feature?

No, but I don't hate it and it actually works pretty well.

Schedule a timer for 12 minutes.

- [Google Assistant] Okay 12 minutes, starting now.

- What was the score of the Bulls game?

- [Google Assistant] The Bulls' last game was against

the Cavaliers.

They lost 119 to 112.

- Man, it sucks to be a Bulls fan this year.

Punching people in the face.

What is the traffic like to Los Angeles right now?

- [Google Assistant] There's moderate traffic from your

location to Los Angeles, so it'll take about 42 minutes.

- See, that is super fast.

So that part of this phone is awesome, and it works really

well, just as advertised.

From there, I'm gonna kinda kill two birds with one stone.

Play Porter Robinson.

(Porter Robinson plays)

So yeah, there's a ton of volume.

That is definitely not anything lacking there.

I think overall, I would say if there was anything missing,

it would be the low end.

There's not a crazy amount there, but regardless, I would

definitely take stereo speakers over non-stereo speakers

any day of the week.

From there, always-on display is an awesome feature to have.

Something that I wish worked just a little bit better was

the song recognition.

It's not that it's bad, and it's kind of confusing because

by default, it is turned off, so if you picked up a

Pixel Two and it's not working, more than likely you have to

go into settings to enable it.

But from there the database and the library isn't exactly

the biggest, so it's not always gonna recognize every song.

And from what I understand, it actually checks every 60

seconds to save battery life, so it's not always gonna

feel the fastest or the quickest.

Next, we're gonna talk about, hands-down, the most

impressive thing about the Pixel Two and that is the

camera, seriously.

Forget the 94 on that DXL mark score, it should just read

next to Google Pixel Two, really (beep) good.

Seriously, what Google has done with this camera is nothing

short of incredible.

Some of the best images I've ever captured are from the

Pixel Two.

It's a 12.2 megapixel sensor with an f-stop of 1.8 and

the color, the sharpness and detail, everything about

this camera is awesome.

The one thing I really like with the Pixel Two is that

portrait mode is gonna work on both the Pixel Two and

Pixel Two XL.

You're not gonna have to choose between one of the phones

because it actually works on one single lens which is

kind of crazy.

One small thing that may turn off some people, is there's

no way to preview the portrait mode before-hand, so you

kind of just gotta take the photo and hope for the best,

but most of the time it works out really well.

One other thing is you're not gonna get as much flexibility

as something like the iPhone Eight Plus,

the Galaxy Note Eight,

or the upcoming iPhone 10 where you can kind of tweak and

manipulate things and post but regardless, it is still

really impressive.

But almost scary to see what Google is doing with a

single lens and I'm stoked to see where they take this in

the future.

Next, I'm gonna talk about portrait selfie mode.

It works incredible, and it is super impressive, but

I had a hard time getting it working and for you out

there that's freaking out right now saying,

you're just an Apple fan-boy, you don't know how to,

Android is too complex and superior for you.

No man.

There are threads in forums deeper than your--

Like I was seriously asking for help on Twitter and

I got people yellin' at me asking if I could rename

photos.

(air horn)

The simplest way is to find the update link, click on it

and hope that it opens in the Play Store because it is

not publicly available.

If that doesn't work, you gotta go into settings, clear

cache and data on the play store, potentially the camera app

as well, reset things, go back into the play store and

hope that an update shows up.

Now for most people out there, that will fix the problem,

but there are certain cases, like I experienced, where

it actually affects certain Google accounts so for me,

for whatever reason, that update did not wanna show up.

The absolutely weirdest bug fix and workaround that I've

ever heard of, happened with the Pixel Two.

If you have a friend where their Google account shows

the camera update, have them log into your phone,

update the camera, have them log out and then magically

your phone is now fixed.

It's crazy.

At the end of the day, though, I finally go it workin'.

Even if I had to side-load a freaking APK, it was worth it

because the Pixel Two selfie portrait mode is amazing.

Now on the flip side of that, some people are

over-critical of the Pixel Two selfie portrait mode, like

looking for any possible mistake.

Yes, it's not gonna be perfect every time.

Yes, it's not always gonna get hair right.

Yes, it sometimes may mistake a piece of the

background for the foreground but overall,

it is crazy what Google is doing with that.

So yeah, between the front-facing camera, the rear

camera, portrait mode on both sides, the Google Pixel Two

as a camera overall is two giant thumbs up.

So we're hoppin' over to the 4k 30fps test here on the

Pixel Two.

Ralphie, Rich and that hard part.

Lemme get a close on that.

Some quick auto-focus.

Also I'd love to hear what you guys think of the video

quality and the stabilization.

Drop me a comment down below.

Lastly, shout out to Mr. Brand on the camera.

He makes some pretty awesome videos.

Check him out, too, the link below.

Lastly, battery life on the Pixel Two and Pixel Two XL

overall are really solid.

Obviously, you're going to get more of a workhorse with

the Pixel Two XL because you're getting a larger battery.

At the end of the day, that's kind of what it came down

to between these two phones.

Battery life and the screen.

So clearly if we need that better battery performance, the

Pixel Two XL is the way to go and normally, a little

bit of no-brainer, you want that bigger, better

display, go for the Pixel Two XL as well, but with that

weird p oled display and that blue color shift,

it kind of makes things a little confusing.

One one hand you've downsized to the regular Pixel so you

don't have to worry about those weird display issues, or

you suck it up for that better battery life and go with

the Pixel Two XL.

So with this video, hopefully there was enough cover with

the features and the software to kind of get you to that

almost ready to buy point, and then from there, the best

advice I could possibly give you is head into a store,

if you can, and look at these displays in person.

I could show you a million times over a YouTube video

how that blue shift looks like but it's never really gonna

simulate real life.

And then from there you can ask yourself, is this enough

to make me not wanna buy the Pixel Two XL.

Are the bezels big enough to where they're gonna annoy

me and I'm gonna wanna go somewhere else?

And that will ultimately help you make your decision.

Aside from that, thank you guys very much for watching.

Hopefully you enjoyed the video.

If you did and you are feeling like being awesome,

make sure to smash that like button.

If you are not feeling the Google Pixel Two, maybe

check out the Galaxy Note Eight, which you can watch

here.

Again, huge shout out to dbrand for sponsoring this video.

This is Jonathan and I will catch you guys later.

- Damn!

- Evans.

Wait, I didn't see that do it again.

- [Male Friend] (mumbles) Get the top part,

Get the bottom arms.

(laughing)

- Damn you're a veiny sucker.

(explosion)

Is There Any Cheese in Cheez Whiz? (And the Story of Kraft) - Duration: 8:06.

As America gets ready for their upcoming Super Bowl parties (or Royal Rumble party, if that's

your thing), Cheez Whiz – the yellowish-orange, gooey, bland tasting "cheese" product

– will surely make an appearance at some of them.

But what is Cheez Whiz?

Why did get it invented?

And is there really cheese in Cheez Whiz?

James L. Kraft was born in 1874 in Stevensville, Ontario on a dairy farm.

When he was 28 years old, he immigrated to the United States, where he first chose Buffalo,

New York to settle in.

(Where a little over a half century later another common Super Bowl snack, the Buffalo

Wing, was born.)

Why he chose Buffalo (well over two hundred miles from his home in Ontario) over Detroit

(under fifty miles away from Stevenson) isn't known.

In fact, there seems to be no real record at all of why Kraft went to Buffalo.

But most important to this story, while there, he eventually invested in a small cheese company.

He quickly rose up through the company and was invited to move to Chicago to run the

cheese company's branch there.

After moving to Chicago, the company either went under or the heads of the company pushed

Kraft out (records are conflicting as to what exactly happened there).

Either way, Kraft was left stranded in Chicago, reportedly with little money (perhaps lending

credence to the "went under" theory) and no job.

Using his meager remaining funds, he bought a horse (named Paddy) and a carriage.

For the next few months before dawn every day, he would take Paddy and the carriage

down to the wholesale market on Chicago's Water Street and buy blocks of cheese in bulk.

He would then sell it to the shop owners around town at marked up prices.

His reasoning was that he was doing the hard part for them- finding and buying the cheese

and then bringing it directly to the shop owners- and that was worth the markup.

He was right.

Within five years, Kraft's business was successful enough that four of his brothers

from Canada were able to come to Chicago and help James build his new cheese company.

By 1914, they had incorporated as J.L. Kraft & Bros Company.

That same year, they opened their first cheese factory in Stockton, Illinois.

The next year, in 1915, they changed the cheese game.

While Kraft was the first to receive a US patent for processed cheese, he wasn't the

first to invent it.

Walter Gerber and Fritz Stettler of Switzerland in 1911 experimented with their native Emmentaler

cheese to see if they could increase the shelf life of cheese for export purposes.

Their experiments included shredding, heating the cheese up to various temperatures, and

mixing it with sodium citrate (still used as a food additive today) to produce a "homogenous

product which firmed upon cooling."

It is unclear if Kraft knew of these Swiss gentlemen, but, in 1916, he submitted for

US Patent 1186524, which was titled "Process of sterilizing cheese and an improved product

produced by such process."

In it, it describes a way, "to convert cheese of the Cheddar genus into such condition that

it may be kept indefinitely without spoiling, under conditions which would ordinarily cause

it to spoil, and to accomplish this result without substantially impairing the taste

of the cheese."

It goes on to explain the process of slicing, heating, and stirring cheddar cheese in great

detail, how it needed to be heated to 175 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 minutes while being

whisked continuously.

The patent never mentions the addition of a sodium additive or "emulsifiers" (be

it sodium citrate like the Swiss or a more general sodium phosphate).

This likely is due to the fact that patents are, of course, public and whatever Kraft

added to the mix, he probably wanted to keep it a secret from the competition, a fairly

common practice in the food industry.

This was the birth of commercialized processed cheese.

Kraft's revolutionary new cheese product couldn't have come at a better time for

him, at least business-wise.

When the United States entered World War I in 1917, there was a need for food products

that would last and could be shipped long distances.

By packing his cheese into 3-1/2 and 7-3/4 ounce tins, Kraft was able to become the cheese

supplier to the US Army, earning himself a huge payday and a whole generation of soldiers

trying out his cheese.

Flash forward about twenty five years, to 1952.

Kraft Cheese, besides now having changed the name, was also now the number one cheese seller

in the United States.

(At the time, they were also selling other dairy products and even candy.)

America was in the middle of the post-war economic boom and at the beginning of the

"convenience culture," when products that made life easier were highly sought after,

which also gave rise to the TV Dinner.

Towards this end, just two years before this, in 1950, Kraft developed a revolutionary convenience-oriented

product, pre-sliced, pre-packaged cheese – the famous "Kraft Single."

It was around this time that Kraft Cheese was doing great business in Britain, thanks

to having sent processed cheese off to World War II with the allied soldiers.

This bring us to a popular English dish called Welsh rarebit, which is basically a hot, melted

cheddar cheese sauce poured over toasted bread – think an open-faced grilled cheese.

While delicious, the cheese sauce is actually rather labor-intensive to make, requiring

much time and careful stirring.

Kraft, trying to appease their British customers, asked their team of food scientists led by

Edwin Traisman (who would later help McDonald's flash fry their french fries) to come up with

a faster alternative for this cheese sauce.

After a year and half of experimentation, they did.

Cheez Whiz was introduced in Britain in 1952, and soon after across the United States.

Given its reputation, it might surprise you to learn that Cheez Wiz was, in fact, originally

made with quite a bit of real cheese.

However, very recently, this changed.

In 2013, Michael Moss, a writer for the National Post (a Canadian national newspaper), spoke

with Dean Southworth, a member of Traisman's team at Kraft in the 1950s that helped develop

Cheez Whiz.

Southworth, a huge fan of the original Cheez Whiz, said that the original was, "a nice

spreadable, with a nice flavor.

And it went well at night with crackers and a little martini.

It went down very, very nicely, if you wanted to be civilized."

However, in 2001, he settled down for a "civilized" evening of one of his favorite snacks- crackers,

martini, and Cheez Whiz that he had purchased from the store that day.

Upon spreading the Whiz onto a cracker and taking a bite, he said he exclaimed to his

wife, "My God, this tastes like axle grease!"

Something had radically changed in this jar of Cheez Whiz from the last he had purchased.

Indeed, when he looked at the ingredients list, he saw as you'll still see today-

Cheez Whiz sold in the United States does not explicitly list cheese in the ingredients

anymore.

Rather, if you look, you'll see 27 other ingredients, including whey (a protein byproduct

of milk, the liquid left after the milk has been curdled and strained), corn syrup, and

milk protein concentrate (a cheaper alternative to higher-priced powdered milk).

When Moss and Southworth approached a Kraft spokeswoman about this in 2013, she told them

there was actually still cheese in the Whiz, though much less than there was before.

When asked just how much real cheese was still included in the product, she declined to comment.

She claimed the reason cheese wasn't listed on the ingredients anymore was because the

label already listed the necessary parts of processed cheese (i.e. milk, sodium phosphate,

cheese cultures), therefore no need for "cheese" to be explicitly stated.

At the end of the conversation, she explained, "We made adjustments in dairy sourcing that

resulted in less cheese being used.

However, with any reformulation, we work hard to ensure that the product continues to deliver

the taste that our consumers expect."

Mr. Southworth, of course, didn't care for the new taste.

In the end, the use of some of the ingredients of cheese, rather than cheese itself, has

some business benefits.

As Southworth said, "I imagine it's a marketing and profit thing.

If you don't have to use cheese, which has to be kept in storage for a certain length

of time in order to become usable… then you've eliminated the cost of storage, and

there is more to the profit center."

Top 10 Photography Apps and Resources - Duration: 8:17.

Hi, in this video I'm going to give you my top 10 photography apps and resources

to make you photography life easier better more efficient and more fun... let's

go!! Hi I'm Adam and welcome to First Man Photography. Now I often get asked about

what photography apps I'm using and in this overcrowded world of photography

apps it can quickly get overwhelming so I thought I'd put this list together

I've curated myself to show you what I'm using on a regular basis and which apps

are really helping me solve a problem okay let's get into this. First up we

have the Lightroom app now I talked about the whole Lightroom and Adobe

ecosystem a couple of weeks ago and I hope a few of you have checked

that out it is brilliant but one of the things I really like about the app is it

lets me just go into a photo and edit it or tweak it a little bit before I'm

gonna post it on social media one of the other great things about the Lightroom

app is that it has a native camera built into it and that captures DNG RAW files

and the amount of adjustments and data that's captured in those RAW files

really can take your iphone or android photography to the next level in the

post-processing also with the Lightroom app as well today you can make some

pretty advanced adjustments and that includes things like ND grads it's a

really great app give it a try.

Number two is Photopills, it's an app I've

talked about a few times before and it's basically the Swiss Army knife of

photography it's got something there probably for almost all photographers

it's got things like exposure calculators it's got a planner to help

you plan your shoots and photography. It will help you do your nighttime

photography things like at the milky way shots it's got a time-lapse mode that

lets you measure your time lapses and get the right period of time and the

right number of shots it measures the hyperfocal distance it's also got a

brilliant AR or augmented reality mode where you just point it and you can see

exactly where the Sun is going to set or the moon is going to rise in your field

of vision it's a great app I've talked about before it is a little bit

expensive now it's about £10, expensive for an app, but it's still well

worth it for a lot of photographers next up is the Canon camera Connect app now

I'm sorry if you choose Nikon but this is something that you should

push Nikon to be putting into their cameras a lot of the new Canon cameras

have a built-in Wi-Fi and that now lets you remotely connect to your tablet or

your phone and it lets you have remote control of the camera. It's something

I've found myself using more and more and more recently if you look I'm

currently controlling the camera with the iPad here and you can control

exposure you can start and stop recording for video you can use it if

you are doing landscape photography you've got your camera really close to

the ground you can adjust your exposure and you can actually take the shot from

your phone when you're out in the field and it's an absolute game changer it

doesn't mean you're bending down to your camera all the time once you've got it

set and it's just a really nice app that's just making my life much easier

it's letting me do more as well which is why it's important to me for example

when I'm at a wedding if I have the camera like this set up on a tripod

doing video I can be with another camera taking photographs and always controlling

the other camera on the tripod, it is a game changer that's taking things

to another level just giving you a new level of control and allowing much more

multitasking than we could do in the past.

Number four is a weather app if you

do any kind of shooting outside of whatsoever you're going to want to check

your weather app on a regular basis I use for here in the UK the BBC weather

app it is not the most accurate one but it does let you list lots of different

places that you attend so you can quickly monitor all those different

places I don't want to use actually an app for weather that's too specific and

too accurate because that can sometimes put you off actually going out sometimes

the BBC weather app just shows it's gonna be average so I'll head out

it might go bad it might go great but I'm out there capturing moments that

otherwise might not have caught like this shot of the lighthouse in a

lightning storm I am clutching at straws a little bit

but I think out of that it's actually forced me to think a little bit harder

about how I can pull a composition out of this situation so the vlog isn't a total failure.

Next I'm using the Ordnance Survey map app. A map app is

going to be important Google Maps for example you need it to get to the places

you want to shoot you photography if you've not

been there before but when I'm out and about in the wilderness doing my

landscape photography the Ordnance Survey app is absolutely brilliant it

has all the different types of map on there the Ordnance Survey produced the

land Ranger ones and the Explorer ones all those kind of things and it sinks in

with your GPS on your phone so you always know where you are it's

important to stay safe when you're out and about in a wilderness know where you

are the OS map app does that really well it's about 20 pounds for a year

subscription but with that you get all the maps and you can download them onto your

phone so when you're in the mountains where there's no signal you can still

use those maps and see where you are on it. You might want to take a battery

charger as well just to make sure your phone doesn't die I'm intending to talk

about that a little bit more and show you how it works in an upcoming video

500px that's the next one it's something I've been pretty slow in

getting on to 500px is a sort of photo sharing social web site and it's sort of

replaced what Flickr used to be Flickr is dead, oh my goodness what have they

done it used to be great. But 500px has kind of taken up the mantle that

Flickr has left behind you can see some really good quality images on there

you're not getting all the rubbish that you see on Instagram. You see the

pictures in nice high resolution as well and it seems to be a pretty good

community on there they've also started to introduce a few features for

professional photographers. A marketplace, websites that kind of thing

it's not something that I've delved into yet but I am now on 500px so I'd love

it if you could give me a follow at first my photography @500px .

And next

that leads us on to Instagram..... you know why..... and if you're not.....you should.

The next one is also from Instagram but it's the Hyperlaps

app. This is there to create those walking hype lapses and the way it works

is by digitally stabilizing the footage so gets those really nice Hyperlapses.

What it's also great for though is if you turn it round landscape size you can

shoot it but you can slow it down to 1 times speed so you just end up with

digitally stabilized footage straight onto your iPhone that looks beautiful

if you get some nice interesting footage with it. It's an app I've used a bit now

it's really good and it's FREE so well worth a try particularly if you're

doing video.

Next up is Medium, now if you haven't heard of it, Medium is a blogging

platform where some of the newest writers and some of the best writers all

contribute and there's just so much there to read and the written word is

there front and center there's some great photography stuff on there as well

I've been writing for some time now for one of the biggest photography

publications on there called Vantage it's well worth checking out with some

great photography articles on there it's a really nice community there there's a

lot of positivity and Medium is a good place to check out if you're interested

in reading some of you contact number ten is the humble website we are all now

operating on our phones most of the time but there's still lots out there on

traditional websites I'm talking about photography blogging sites like Peta

Pixel and F-Stoppers that are both great. You've got Canon rumors and Nikon rumors

that are always quite good fun and you've also got things like Skippy sky

that can help with you sunrise and sunsets and of course you've got the

First Man Photography website. The apps I've talked about have saved me

time they've made me more efficient and that just lets me do more and more and

more and therefore get better. Hopefully they can do same for you anyway I'll put

a link down below to everything I've mentioned and please do leave a comment

and let me know if I've missed anything what do you like to use? Share your ideas

with everybody else that'd be really appreciated so I hope you've enjoyed the

video please do subscribe to the channel if you haven't done so already hit the

notification bell I'll see you on another one very very soon

I'm Adam this is First Man Photography in the studio, Out!!!!

Pixel 2 Teardown! - Its actually kinda cool... - Duration: 7:04.

This particular Pixel has had a rough day, and it's not quite over yet.

It's time for a tear down and a review from the inside.

Let's see how repairable the Pixel really is.

[Intro]

The Pixel 2 screen repair is very similar to the original Pixel from last year, and

refreshingly easy compared to other flagships these days.

A large suction cup is always helpful with phones that are glued shut.

There's not a whole lot of glue under this glass this time around.

I was able to lift up and slide my pry tool under the glass without any heat, but it still

felt incredibly tight and I was nervous about using too much force.

A heat gun softens the adhesive under the screen, making it easier to lift off.

Sliding my pry tool around the edge of the glass, taking special care not to touch the

display under that glass layer – which is more fragile than a potato chip, and it will

crack if the metal touches it.

Now, if your screen is already cracked, you won't have to be as careful as I am.

I just want mine to stay in one piece.

I use a thin little business card to keep the screen from re-adhering back down to the

frame.

The waterproofing around the dual speakers is pretty thick.

Now that the screen is off we can see that there's only one ribbon cable holding the

screen to the body of the phone.

I would say the two most important things to remember during this screen removal process

is to not bend or put too much pressure on the glass, and not not damage the ribbon cable

along that bottom of the display as you're cutting through the adhesive.

It's as fragile as paper.

I'll fold the screen over gently and unscrew the two T5 screws holding the silver bracket

over the screen plug.

It's a pretty tight connection, but it will unsnap just like a little Lego, allowing us

to remove the screen and get a look at the 12 screws holding the mid-frame to the phone.

Keep these screws organized and put them back in the holes they come from.

All of them are normal Phillips head screws except for the little guy up in the top corner

– that's another T5.

I'll have the tool kits and parts linked in the video description.

There's also one little sliver of silver grounding the top under that camera.

Remember this little guy for later during the reassembly.

And now we can lift the whole mid-frame up and away from the phone, exposing all of the

internal components.

First thing we always do is unsnap the battery.

The battery replacement itself is surprisingly easy.

I'll unplug the charging port ribbon cable and the volume ribbon so it won't get caught

as I pull up the battery.

Taking special care not to puncture the battery, I can take the flat end of my metal pry tool

and pop it out gently on both sides.

There is some adhesive, but it doesn't have a death grip on the battery like we've seen

inside some other phones.

It's a nice change and I prefer it this way.

Thumbs up to Google for the easy screen and battery replacements.

This is a repair guy's dream.

The battery is a 2700 milliamp and I'll leave the replacements linked in the description.

The phone does have the same squeezing functions that we saw on the HTC U11 – grip the sides

and activate the Google Assistant.

Kind of a cool feature if you plan on using it.

The grip sensors are down along the bottom half of the phone, so gripping down here will

achieve the best results.

You can check out the HTC U11 video for a more detailed look at these grip sensors.

I'm going to leave them intact on the phone this time around.

It's time for the charging port.

The port has one screw holding the board in place with two circular connected signal wires

that need to be unplugged and detangled.

And then the whole thing can pop up away from the phone body, revealing something surprisingly

cool.

Google took an extra step towards water-resistance that I've never seen before.

They added some kind of dielectric grease to the rubber ring around the charging port.

This is the same stuff used to waterproof the electronic connections in a Jeep or other

off-roading vehicle, and the same thing we saw in the underwater drone that I reviewed

a few weeks ago.

Pretty interesting stuff, and surprising to see inside of a cell phone.

I'm impressed.

The rectangular vibrations motor has some adhesive holding it to the frame, which is

smart.

The bottom loud speaker is different than the top loud speaker and has the same style

of connection that we saw inside my clear Nintendo Switch video.

The little microphone on the other side has a little rubber boot around the edge that

sits up tight against the white water-resistant screen, sitting over the hole next to the

charging port.

That helps keep water out.

Jumping over there to the top of the phone we have the motherboard and the SIM card tray

that needs to come out.

No expandable memory on the Pixel 2, but Google does offer unlimited storage until the year

2020.

After that you'll still get to keep what you uploaded, but anything new you'll either have

to pay for or it gets compressed into a lower format.

I took out one screw along the right side of the motherboard, and another screw by the

metal tape that I told you to remember earlier.

And then the whole motherboard can lift up and away from the frame...still held in place

by the fingerprint scanner ribbon with some yellow tape over the top.

I'll remove that tape and unsnap the ribbon.

Then the motherboard is free for us to explore.

The 8 megapixel front facing camera does not have OIS, and that's fine.

Most smartphones don't on the front camera.

But the back camera on the other side of the phone does.

You can see how it moves around inside of it's housing to stabilize the image.

This can also be replaced and unsnaps just like a little Lego.

It reconnects in the same way.

Just make sure that little tab thing on the left side of the lens is under the motherboard,

otherwise it won't sit back down at the right angle.

Pulling down the copper shielding from the fingerprint scanner.

The scanner itself is glued very securely to the back housing.

It has it's own layer of water-resistance, but I can't push it through from the back

side, so replacements are an option if the software allows it.

Also, keep in mind that opening up your phone, even for a basic screen replacement, ruins

any water-resistance it might have had before.

I'll fold the copper shielding back over the home button so it doesn't interfere with the

motherboard, and I'll set the motherboard down into the frame so I can plug in the fingerprint

scanner to the back.

And then I'll lay it down into the phone, taking special care not to get any ribbons

caught underneath.

There are 2 screws on the right and left sides of the motherboard.

And then I'll snap in the bottom 2 squeeze sensing ribbons.

Each of them have their own Lego style connector that plugs into the motherboard.

The charging port is next with its dielectric grease, going back into the charging port

slot.

And getting the vibration motor and loudspeaker back in their own correct positions on the

frame.

The one little screw next to the vibration motor on the board will hold it all in place

for now.

The white signal wire needs to be plugged in and then rerouted through the plastic that

holds it in place.

The black signal wire as well; plug it in first and then tuck it in the lines where

it belongs.

The battery goes in place next.

I'm just reusing the same gentle adhesive that was holding it in place the first time

around.

Then I'll plug in the volume and power buttons, as well as the charging port extension ribbon

that comes up from the bottom of the phone over the battery.

And lastly, the battery itself gets plugged into the motherboard.

There's one little sensor array attached to the mid-frame that needs to come off.

I'll push that off the frame with my tweezers and then plug it into the motherboard first,

leaving the little niblet standing straight up and down so it can adhere to the mid-frame

again after I set it down into the phone.

Now that the mid-frame is in place, I will snap it into the lower frame.

There will be 12 additional screws sandwiching everything together in one solid piece.

There are also two metallic grounding tape straps at the top and top left of the phone.

The phone is probably fine without it if you don't wrap them around and touch the frame,

but if you're actually going to use your phone, or doing this for a customer, make sure you

get those back in place just in case.

The replacement screens will probably come with their own adhesive, but if not, simple

double-sided tape will do just fine.

I'll have some linked in the video description, along with some of the other replacement parts.

The screen with it's silver bracket, and two screws is back into place.

And it's good as new...mostly.

Ok, not really, but at least it still works.

Let me know if you have any questions down in the comments, and come hang out with me

on Twitter – we have a pretty good time.

Thanks a ton for watching, and I'll see you around.

Google Pixelbook review - Duration: 8:53.

Google's back in the laptop business, with this, the Pixelbook [not the "Chromebook Pixel" -- oops!]

As you can see, it is a beautiful, well-made aluminum laptop, with a high resolution touchscreen

that you can flip around into a tablet mode.

The question for this review isn't is it any good, because it's very good at being a Chromebook

No, the question is Is it worth spending $1000 on this Chromebook?

And there are other questions!

Can it replace a MacBook or a Windows laptop — or even an iPad Pro?

To answer those questions, we need to talk about the software.

Chrome OS, especially with Android apps, is more capable than it's ever been.

I can use it for my job, for 90 percent of the stuff I need to do.

And I'm also lucky enough to have other computers around for when I need to finish that last ten percent

And everybody's ten percent is different.

For me it's video editing.

For you, it might be a great Mac app or a really powerful Excel spreadsheet

Or a dope iPad game

I do believe that Android apps are going to get better at filling those gaps over time

But it's going to take awhile

I wouldn't buy this in the hopes that the situation is going to get better

in the next few months, or even the next year.

But today, now, this machine is much more powerful than most people think.

Web apps on Chrome are great, You can use them separate windows instead of tabs and

split screen them.

Many of them work offline.

Then there are the Android apps.

You might have heard that they have been running in Beta on Chrome OS for awhile

And that beta hasn't been, well, any good at all.It's been terrible Now that beta is over, the situation is better, but it's still a little tricky.

Now they're out of beta on this machine and I can report that they are better

But the situation is, well, a little bit tricky

Really, the main thing I've run into is that it's weird to have two versions of the same app.

Slack, for instance, has a great web app but in tablet mode the android app is better.

So you end up kind of juggling them in an awkward way.

But not all Android apps are this nice.

Most don't have freely resizable windows.

The good news is that running them doesn't bring the machine to a halt like it used to

on other chromebooks.

Some of that, I'm sure, is that this thing is very powerful, but a lot it is bugfixes.

We should talk about some other chrome os changes.

The Google Assistant is here, get to it by hitting this button

or by saying Okay Google

There's also Google search, of course

Just like on the Pixel phone, it's integrated with the on-device search

There's a new launcher that's nicer and does a slightly better job of helping you distinguish

between web and android apps.

There's also this pen, the Pixelbook pen.

It's a hundred bucks and the battery in it should last about a year.

You can do usually note taking stuff, even use handwriting recognition.

It's a full wacom stylus, so you can do a bunch of drawing tricks with angle and pressure.

But that stuff only works in a few apps, ones that are updated to support it.

In those apps, the lag is barely noticeable.

In other apps, it's pretty bad.

Hopefully they'll get updated.

Anyway, I'm not really a stylus guy but my colleague James Bareham is.

He says it feels better than the Apple Pencil on the iPad.

The difference is that the iPad Pro and Windows machines have way more software

If the software support were there for it, that fight would be much more interesting,

but as it is the iPad or a Windows Machine really does has the edge on pens.

The other thing the Pen does is help with image searches.

You can just hold this button down and circle stuff,

and the google assistant will search for the thing you circled.

If you have a pixel phone, you can turn on instant tethering.

Heck, if you have any recent android phone you can unlock this computer with your phone's

fingerprint sensor.

But not everything in the software is rosy.

The files app can be a little twitchy, for example.

And tablet mode is just annoying.

It's fine for reading or watching a movie, but you can't do split screen at all and a

bunch of android apps are clumsy at best when you switch over.

This isn't as good at managing Windows on your screen as, well, Windows

So yeah, Google has some more work to do there.

Let's geek out about hardware

You'd think there's only so many ways to make a laptop, even a convertible one like this.

But Google has managed to make the Pixelbook look and feel unique.

More than unique, actually, from a materials and build quality perspective, this feels

every inch like the thousand dollars it costs.

It's made out of aluminum, with a glass screen and this glass shade behind the lid, which

makes it look like like it belongs next to the Pixel phones.

It's also sturdy as hell, with zero flex.

It weighs just about two and a half pounds and is a little under half an inch thick.

The industrial design is also unique, with these squared off edges and symmetrical elements.

It's just really nice.

There are a bunch of details here that are smart.

Like the palmrests, which are made of silicone and feel better than metal to rest your palms

on.

I'm hoping they won't get grimy, but if they do I bet they're easier to clean than the

fabric on Microsoft's Surface devices.

The clever bit about those palm rests is that when you're using it tablet mode, they act

like anti-skid feet.

They also do a good job of keeping the keyboard from touching the screen when it's closed.

Look at this little gap here.

And the keyboard is also great.

It has more key travel than a Macbook without being too much thicker.

I should also point out that it is backlit, which is a stupid thing to point out

But a lot of Chromebooks don't have that, which is super annoying

The mouse is also really great. It's matted glass and it's got a nice click.

But I will say that it's a little annoying that when the laptop is closed you can squeeze

right there and click it.

As for the screen, it's a 12.3-inch display with 3 by 2 aspect ratio and the resolution

is 2400 x 1600.

It's really good, responsive to touch, and sharp.

The bezels here, though, are a little bigger than I'd like.

There are other convertibles with smaller bezels, so I don't buy the standard line that

they make it easier to hold in tablet mode.

So sure, your thousand bucks pays for the design, but it's also paying for high end specs

It has a proper Intel Core i5 7th-generation processor, 8 gigs of ram, and 128 gigs of storage.

That's way more than normal for a chromebook, but you'll use it for Android apps, downloaded

movies, and so on.

Like several recent machines, it runs that powerful processor without any fans — and

if you are a crazy person you can spend up to 1650 to get 16 gigs of ram and a faster

processor and way more storage..

And as for performance: it's a screamer, With Chromebooks, I usually have to give this speech

about how you measure them by how many tabs they can run before they bog down.

Not a problem here.

This runs Chrome better than any computer I've used — at least one that isn't some

fifteen hundred dollar plus pro machine.

I mean, that's how it should be with this machine, but I'm glad to report that it is.

Google is claiming ten hours of battery life, but I'm not quite getting that.

It's possible — actually it's true — that I have been pushing this machine pretty hard.

But I wouldn't trust this thing past seven or eight hours unless you're being careful.

Luckily, it charges super fast.

And because it uses standard USB-C, I was even able to eke out some extra time on the

airplane with one of those in-seat USB ports.

Speaking of airplanes, this is what laptops should be now

Apple, good on you for refusing to put a touchscreen on your laptops

And Microsoft, good on you for making a traditional laptop.

But this is just so convenient, especially when you're on an airplane, that it should be the shape of laptops from now on.

Look, I get it there are a million things the Mac is better at than this.

Same goes for Windows and the iPad pro.

They hit that last 10 percent of what you need more often.

But this thing is good at being simple.

It's always up to date, and its very good at doing Chrome things.

Here is what the Pixelbook is: a supercomputer for web apps, with a side of Android.

I am not going to tell you if that's worth a thousand bucks to you

And I'm not going to tell you that it can replace your current computer

But I am going to tell you that Google is closer than it's ever been befoe to even saying that it's possible

For a platform that's only six years old, that's impressive.

Is the Xbox One X Worth It? - Duration: 8:38.

- Hey guys this is Austin.

And inside this mysterious brown box

is what I very much hope is the Xbox One X,

but the question is, is it worth it?

So first of all I have to give a big shout out to Microsoft

for actually sending us out the Xbox One X early.

The moment of truth.

Oh, yeah.

So first we get all of our paperwork

in this nice little folder.

So we get the Getting Started Guide.

Actually something cool about the One X

is that if you do have a One S right now,

literally all the cables are in the same spot,

and they use the same cables.

So you can just unplug the One S,

plug the One X in,

that works just fine.

You also get one month of Xbox Game Pass,

as well as what I assume is

14 days of Xbox Live Gold.

We also get what seems to be some cables.

Yeah so we have the tiny power cable.

One of the nice things about the One S and the One X

is that you don't need a power brick,

you just plug it right in.

Alright we also get an HTMI cable,

as well as the

oh controller.

I don't think the One X has a different

controller than the One S.

They already updated it last year

with Bluetooth and a couple things

but let's take a look.

Yeah that looks pretty much

like a normal Xbox One controller.

These have a little bit of a texture on the back,

but I think it's the same as the One S

just in different color,

but nice although what's not nice is that

the $500 console still comes with double AA batteries.

It's actually not that big of a deal

but having it charged an extra $20

for the battery is kind of annoying.

Now the Xbox One X.

So I've actually held one of these before.

It is so heavy.

So it is actually slightly smaller than the Xbox One S

but it weighs a lot more

and it's supposedly because they put some crazy cooling

to actually get this thing to work.

There it is.

Xbox One X.

So if you look here in the back,

it's literally just a giant heat sink.

So the idea here is that

because this is so much more powerful

than something like the Xbox One S,

they need to get a lot more cooling

to actually make sure this doesn't like, you know,

explode or catch on fire or Red Ring.

So just like on the One S,

we have the power port,

HTMI out, as well as HTMI in,

a pair of USB 3.0 ports, IR out,

speaker out, as well as ethernet.

My big takeaways from the One X,

as far as hardware goes,

it's just so heavy.

I'm just gonna keep saying that.

This is so heavy.

Ken, get up here.

- Wow, yeah. - Isn't that heavy?

- I mean it's 'cause it's smaller than One S too, right?

- It's basically the same size.

It's like a little smaller.

- But, like, I mean,

this seems like very dense.

- They got vapor chamber cooling inside

which is like what you'd find in like

a 1080 Ti or something.

- I mean also this thing, like,

probably draws more power too.

The power port is the same, yeah.

- I'm actually surprised

that they were able to do that

because the PS4 Pro uses a more PC style.

- [Ken] Yeah.

- Speaking of the PS4 Pro,

to me the One X is a much more

attractive console across the board.

Not only does it pack more power

and a smaller and better looking chassis,

but you're also getting extra features

such as Ultra HD Blu Ray

that you just can't get on the PS4 Pro.

Put the One X side by side with its little brother

and the family resemblance is clear.

It drops the bins on top in favor of

a matte-like finish all the way across.

While this is nice for usability and allowing you

to actually put things on top of the console,

to me I still feel like the One S

is the better-looking console.

Especially in white,

it is such a classy look,

but the One X is very similar.

Like the PS4 Pro,

the major advantage of the One X is that

it is a more powerful version of the Xbox One S.

Look at the specs and it's no competition.

While it has a similar 8 Core Processor on the One X,

it's clocked higher at 2.3 gigahertz compared to 1.7.

Memory sees a massive upgrade.

We're going from eight gigabytes of DDR3

to 12 gigabytes of GDDR5.

Now having that extra space means

that not only can you do things

like store higher resolution textures

but it is of the faster GDDR5 variant.

The original Xbox One relied on DDR3 memory

which is a lot slower

but it was backed up by some very small

and very fast ESRAM on the actual chip itself.

And this was expensive

and part of the reason why the original Xbox One

did not have as much power as the PS4

which decided to bail on all of that

and just go with the faster GDDR5 memory out of the box.

And the Xbox One X needs it.

So it has an AMD mega-based GPU

with a pretty impressive six teraflops of performance.

And to put that in perspective,

the original Xbox One had about 1.2 teraflops

while the PS4 and the PS4 Pro

have 1.8 and 4.2 teraflops respectively.

That is five times the graphics horsepower

of the original Xbox One

and it is right up there with a lot of high end gaming PCs.

Now it's actually kind of necessary in 2017.

The original Xbox One barely struggled to hit

1080p in a lot of games, much less 4K.

The idea is that all current Xbox One games

will run right out of the box,

no problem on the One X,

but some games and especially new ones going forward

should be One X Enhanced.

And this can mean different things depending on the game,

so a lot of the times this means

that you're going to get 4K and HDR support,

but at the very least you should see

some resolution and quality improvements.

As I'm doing this video before the release date,

not all of these game patches are live.

However a couple of them that I can test are,

Gears of War 4 and Titanfall 2.

Gears is right up there

with some of the best looking options on the Xbox One

and you get a ton of options on the One X.

Not only does it have a 4K rendering mode

with enhanced textures,

but you can also opt to play it

in 1080p at 60 frames which is awesome.

Not all games do this

but it brings the experience closer

to the flexibility you get on PC.

When you're playing on a nice 4K TV,

the difference is very noticeable.

Take a closer look and you'll see

that not only are textures

on his face and jacket much improved,

but the higher resolution helps

to clean up stuff like his hair.

In action, while the details aren't quite as obvious,

the extra resolution and textures make a big difference.

It's not a next generation leap or anything

but especially if you have an HDR display, it looks great.

Titanfall 2 also shows a substantial difference.

This is a game that struggles

to get close to HD on standard hardware,

but here it's running with a dynamic resolution

that aims for 4K while keeping locked

to 60 frames per second.

In most areas it's not quite at 4K

but the difference compared

to the standard Xbox isn't even close.

It goes from being a bit of a blurry mess

to looking crisp in detail.

This is all based on playing on a 4K TV

but you will see some of these improvements

if you're using a 1080p or even a 1440p monitor.

The One X will Super Sample down to HDE

to get you a sharper image

with the same improved textures, et cetera.

You won't be getting these full benefits

but as 4K and HDR-compatible TVs

become more and more common,

having more powerful console isn't a crazy idea.

Microsoft recently brought out backwards compatibility

for original Xbox games

which works well in the X as you'd expect,

but what's really impressive is the 360 emulation.

On the standard one,

it looks essentially identical to base 360 hardware,

but for some games including Halo 3 and Fallout 3,

there's a special One X rendering mode.

Not only does this massively improve the resolution,

but it can also add things like HDR support

without touching the base game code,

or at least, supposedly.

Take a look at Halo 3

and the difference is kind of incredible.

There's a massive leap in not only resolution

but just in sheer detail.

If you take a closer look at Arbiter here for example,

he goes from being a few blurry pixels on the 360

to being razor sharp on the One X.

It's clear that they're drawing

higher quality textures

farther away than was possible before

and the results are awesome.

Unfortunately this won't be the case

on every 360 game on the One X

but it is still incredibly impressive.

Get outside of gaming and you'll find a very familiar sight.

So the new Xbox One interface

is shared across all Xbox Ones,

and while it is a big improvement,

it still has a little bit of clutter

compared to what I'd like, PS4.

You do get some new options

including being able to record

gameplay at up to 4K60 in HDR.

Although if you want to record

for longer than 30 seconds,

you will need an external drive.

Also just a little tip,

if you want to know which games

take advantage of the One X,

there's a dropdown menu which will show you

which titles are One X Enhanced.

The vapor chamber cooling inside the One X

absolutely does its job.

So it does get a little bit warmer on the back.

Thankfully that doesn't mean that the fan speed

is going to be all that high.

It's only just a little bit louder

than something like the One S.

Given the power draw tops 165 watts,

I had to give Microsoft credit.

They did not cheap out when it comes to the cooling

which brings me to one of the biggest issues with the One X,

price.

At $500 it's not only a $100 more than the PS4 Pro,

but it's basically double the price

of the standard Xbox One.

The Xbox is fighting an uphill battle.

On one hand there's the more successful PS4,

and on the other is the surprisingly excellent

Nintendo Switch.

So is the Xbox One X worth it?

Well it depends.

If you're the person who wants

the most powerful console out there, then yes,

but for a lot of people,

the cheaper PS4 Pro

is going to deliver not only more games

but the performance is close enough

that it might just be enough.

So what do you guys think about the One X?

Let me know in the comments below

and I will catch you on the next one.
