I can think of one very handy function of having controls on the case. Using your earbuds with something other than your phone. I share mine between my phone and laptop, and when connected to my laptop I'm locked out of most controls other than what is on the buds itself. So, for example if I want to change EQ settings while on my laptop, I have to disconnect from my laptops, reconnect to my phone change a setting without hearing what I'm doing then reconnect back to the laptop. Lame. It's interesting…
Saw a TCL phone at little island in NY, very loud and long startup chime
SRB
yeah / I bet / so nothing today / but / we mih=gtg see you Tesla" thing happen /
Travel is my big reason on this. I wear my Buds2 under the helmet on ambient mode. Having a case that I can make quick adjustments to when I’m stationary could be a great use for it. Plus it’s bound to have touch response + case response. So that’s fine I guess.
make a strap for it to wear like a smart watch it you don't have one
lol Andrew's hate schpiel on hiking while listening to music, #chillbro
Two points for me.
Tbh in Europe, or at least my country, most people have Xiaomi phones (as the cheap, Motorola alternative)
P.S. this is the first time I've heard about TCL doing phones.
For options like noise canceling, ambient sound etc. I would be more inclined to pull out the chase instead of unlocking my phone and going to an app.
14:13 I could see a possible situation for the rollable TV, since you could have for example pictures or smt on the wall behind the TV and this could solve your problem, although people with a small apartment having this problem wouldn't even have money for smt like that xd.
I feel like sometimes you see people carry their airpod case clipped on a loop for belt on jeans, so it's pretty easily accessible, so maybe in that scenario it could be useful. Also I agree with Andrew, the touch controls on the earphones themselves are horrible.
A screen on the earbud case is more of a solution looking for a problem. Like the guy said, it could come in handy if you don’t have a smartwatch. I would just invest in a smartwatch though. It can track so many things, you can wear it on your wrist, make calls without your phone, etc.
Idk I'm really liking my a13 5g bcuz it was less than 200 and it doesn't seem like I'm missing out on much features for the price…
Apple will spin ads on the iphone as "exposing you to more local businesses helping you support your community effortlessly" (my prediction, other similar spins possible)
For the earbuds, if the UI is done well, it could replace needing third-party apps on the phone. If I want to change EQ or the sensitivity of my noise cancellation, I have to make sure I have the Bose app downloaded and installed. The case could allow you to change settings and carry over setting like EQ between devices without installing an app.
iphone mini was in the TOP 9 and it STILL got discontinued???
They weirdly don't about how consumer products affect data. Or for that matter how big development construction project affect so much more than like your fave dongle. But like something on web3. I mean really its two dudes.
At this point just make the case a mini functional player that can house earbuds. Add storage and LTE in the case. Pair with your carrier number so you have some data on the go for streaming services and control those directly from the case. A dream thing for people who want to go outdoors for a few hours and don't want to take their brick of a phone, specially for running. As a bonus add NFC so you could link your wallet. There are a lot of people who use their smartphones just for basics and don't need to have it on them all the time.
Of course this would make sense only if this is cheaper than a smartwatch which does all those things and more anyway. But a smartwatch cannot house earbuds.
This thumbnail is abrasive.
If I could store music on the case, like an mp3, this would be great for running.
An lcd screen on a airpod-esq case is equivalent to a pocket watch!
an earbuds case with a screen makes sense if it has onboard storage for music so it doubles as an iPod in a way. it would definitely work for the beats fit pro case seeing its unnecessarily chungous
TCL?! I have never even heard of it much less seen someone with one. Also, I haven’t noticed someone with a Pixel either. The iPhone, Samsung and Motorola is really all I ever see out in the wild here in WA.
I'm with Andrew. Tapping, swiping, or talking to your buds is annoying and confusing
at the start I wasn't able to see the full podcast now I can thanks marques and team for spice it up by trivia
If you use a Galaxy Watch 4/5 and Samsumg Buds Pro you can switch between ANC and ambient through the watch. Also seamless connection of the earbuds between watch an phone
I appreciate how much Pokemon Andrew knows, love it 😀
A Screen on my earbud case is a head scratcher for me…. btw guys my Kiplsch McLaren T5 II best controls ever on wireless earbuds… Best sound best everything acturally but more important coolest looking…
Ever since I sold my house and cars and started investing in crypto in 2021 with Mr Michael Kitces my life has changed with his top notch trading skills.
I've never heard about TCL.
Bootstrap trivia: Early mainframes and minicomputers had a second discrete computer inside whose sole job was to "bootstrap" the main computer. Once the main computer was running, the bootstrap computer did nothing.
The only thing I'd really find useful about a screen on an earbuds case is a battery status bar.
T-Mobile rep here. TMO's in house Revvl lineup of phones is made by TCL, so that might be a big contributor to the company's market share. Also, the revvls kinda suck, don't buy them
There not a single scenario where that screen would help me, but it looks pretty cool, I always keep my case in my pocket and would probably never see the screen
People who are really into interior design would LOVE the rollable TV, if you look for pictures of stylish or designer living rooms, they almost never have a tv at all, because they’re an eyesore to the room aesthetic. In the interior design sub-culture I’ve seen people spend more than the cost of that rollable tv on elaborate systems to cover up the tv when not in use. Way better to have the tv be the thing to roll up and get out of the way imo, maybe you have have art or a mirror or something more stylish on the wall there. The Samsung Frame currently solves this same problem a different way, and it currently sells pretty well, but it’s pretty small and it imo requires it to be part of a gallery wall to complete the look and that’s not feasible with every design style.
A really good product wouldn't need these useless add ons unless it replaces something. Watch or phone..which it doesn't at the moment.
I want to know more about the 1982 mouse. The Apple Lisa was introduced in 1983. What kind of computer could work with a mouse in 1982?
A replaceable battery 🪫 would be more useful
A replaceable battery 🪫 would be more useful
I've wondered this for a while, Marques do you actually keep that many tabs open like a 60 year old
