The Best Tech I Missed This Year: The Leftovers (2022)

[@Thetechchap]

Such a good video - there's a whole bunch of great tech I didn't get around to covering this year, and this was a lovely recap!

[@TheMrMobile]

Thanks bud! BTW, the MacBook M1 Max footage is from that coffee shop down the road from your wedding venue 🥂

[@fontenbleau]

Technically 2022 was a dry desert 🏜, nothing new, stagnation. But in software, Ai development revolution are happened, image generation destroyed whole professions of artists and photographers next. 2023 will be year of Ai generated videos and movies, whole Hollywood maybe replaced after Google as owner of biggest video library of planet started training it's machines, it's already do, and youtubers will be replaced too, time for paychecks after videos maybe quite short-term.

@@anb1142 "Cans and Buds" is slang or shorthand for "headphones and earbuds." A "can of Bud" is a container of Budweiser, a popular beer in North America. I intentionally conflated the two for a very dumb joke. 😄

Good catch there!

[@bilalrasool1]

something every tech reviewer missed was the Lenovo Thinkbook Plus Gen 3, it's a laptop with an ultrawide screen and has a second display next to the keyboard. It was released in 2022 but no big tech reviewer made a video on it.

[@PeterTucker]

This has got to be one of the best videos of the year; covers a lot of ground, packs in a lot of relevant details, and is just so much fun! Bravo

A round of applause please for the best 2022 Tech Recap I’ve yet seen this far: honest opinions, well sorted between brands and devices, ~20 min max footage, well edited, great landscapes or scenes, scripts on point … got me hooked the whole video. Well done MrMobile! 👏🏻 👏🏻

[@axllebeer]

Honestly until I save up for a decent gaming desktop, my son got that this year for Christmas (shh don’t tell him), my steam deck is my main gaming device. Be it in my hands or hooked up to my 55” tv using a ps5 controller, it’s a pleasure to use every time. I love it.

[@AlvinRamli]

This is splendid. It felt so relatable while you demonstrate the capabilities of each product you mentioned. It feels like I've penetrated the hype wall behind every launch and actually witness the tech being utilized at it's desired environment. Thank you!

[@bubbledoubletrouble]

Given how many reviewers have lauded its $399 price, it’s amusing to hear someone call the Steam Deck an “expensive compromise”. Yes, the Series S is $299, and the digital PS5 is $399 (if you can get your hands on one), but portability (display, battery, etc.) comes at a cost.

[@TheMrMobile]

Fair enough. I could have done better with that phrasing.

[@tams805]

It really depends on how you're using it. If you have got other systems that you play the same games on, then yes, it is an expensive compromise, even the base version.

[@guytul]

Best tech youtuber on the web! Happy holidays to all.

[@RealMacfixer]

First time I noticed the minidisc collection. Best portable format in a tiny disc ever!

[@thetreehugger]

One of the best feature cell phones can offer, when recording video. Give the option of automatically record in horizontal mode and have the videos NOT look amateurish.

[@TimbrrWolfe]

The Steam Deck is definitely a weird one in terms of what games are compatible. All the specs to be able to run a ton of modern, AAA games, but a backlog of configuring software to make older games compatible. Tabletop Simulator and Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy are two of the games in my collection I'm a little disappointed to see not make the cut, but being able to play Cyberpunk on physical hardware (instead of in the cloud like I have been), let alone on the go makes it one of my highest priority purchases.

[@tams805]

@Carl Gunderson No it's not. Devs generally don't make their games compatible with it. It's to do with the state of the translation from code written for running on Windows to run it on Linux. Most of the translating software being done by WINE, with Valve and CodeWeavers really only just adding some polish on top.

[@TimbrrWolfe]

I'd love to see some coverage of the Nreal Air glasses (and/or some similar glasses, since there are a couple options out there) I haven't picked them up but they're right behind the Steam Deck (which they apparently play well with) in terms of tech I wanna pick up. Could be a good pickup for the mobile life, in terms of being able to play games or watch movies (or even do work, especially since the Nreal Air specifically work with Macbooks to do an AR triple display setup, apparently) with less space taken up for the view you get with them. i.e. I've heard them described as a personal private theater before.

[@absp2006]

Seriously Mike, thank you for talking about these gadgets! Heres hoping for a fun 2023. ALSO, MAKE SURE TO TAKE TIME OFF!!!

[@Simon-dx7fs]

would you be interested in doing a long term review of the Steam Deck after the new year's come around? I'd definitely be keen to see one from you!

[@_reckless_]

I'd really like to see more smartwatch reviews from MrMobile, there's so much of innovation to be accounted for there. Thankfully, Michael seems to be getting on board with smartwatch stuff again lately. Hopefully we'll see more reviews of these wrist gadgets from him in 2023.

[@TheMrMobile]

I went hard on smartwatch reviews for years, but when Wear OS stagnated it really put a damper on my efforts there. Thankfully they're picking up again!

[@_reckless_]

@@TheMrMobile Thank you for replying, means a lot. I can't but agree, man. Wear OS 2 was indeed becoming a big mess, and it really needed a redesign. But now that the watches are back onto being a lot better functionally, even though a little bland on the design front in Wear OS 3, maybe we could get on again. I really enjoyed your smartwatch reviews, man. Please do keep 'em coming! Cheers! ❤️

[@prakash.s1158]

Who else noticed the food moving on his plate around 1:15

[@exe_]

About the steam deck and the playdate having no backlight on the buttons. I think that is a dumb criticism to have, a control is not a keyboard, you're supposed to look at the game and feel the buttons at all times. Great video though.

[@TheMrMobile]

Maybe I'm just weak-sauce on my touch gaming, but the Steam Deck has so many buttons, some of which have zero tactility, and the dpad is in such a weird place that when I'm playing in a dark plane cabin I'm usually hunting for the buttons 🤷‍♂️

[@alpiasker]

@@TheMrMobile I came here to say this. You shouldn't need a backlit button on a controller.

[@exe_]

@@TheMrMobile I think that's the actual flaw, those buttons must be in an awkward position then 🤔

[@DominickRuocco]

Mr. Mobile is the best! I bought the Galaxy Buds2 Pro a couple of months ago and I love them. The sound quality on the Buds2 Pro are so good and they are my.favorite piece of tech from 2022.

Steam Deck has been my favorite new tech this year. Pretty much all the games I played on it just work with no tinkering necessary. I played it more than my PS5 too.

I can agree the Galaxy Watch 5 and Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are amazing. Samsung did a good job this year.

[@davidfromdownunder]

Appreciate all the hard work Michael. I trust you and the entire Mr Mobile Team have a relaxing Xmas / New Year's break. Perhaps a visit down under in 2023 could be on the cards to relax some more? No doubt you've all earned it, nothing more relaxing than a beer down on a Gold Coast beach in Queensland, Australia. At least you'd get a solid 16 hours or so to edit on your way back home to NY. Have a think about it, we'd love to have you down under mate. Whoever said running a YT channel is easy needs their head examined, seriously in a lot of ways I don't envy you with the hours that go into a show, particularly this one, it looks exhausting! On that note.... DON'T stay mobile my friend, you need a nap!

[@wusaint]

Can't wait to tear open that Steam Deck I know my wife got me for Xmas! With that said, I'm shocked you went for the Quiet Comfort over the good ol' Sony XM lineup. I'm still rocking the XM4s but you'd be hard pressed to pry them from my cold dead hands lol.

12:22 The Framework Chromebook is more about repair and sustainability rather than not having to carry around a dongle. That being said, 4 hours of battery life just doesn't cut it. My HP Chromebook x360 has around 14 hours of battery life.

[@chuckrichardson83]

The reason why people like fossils still use gorilla glass instead of sapphire is something that a lot of people wouldn't know unless you've either had tons of sapphire watches or like myself worked in a watch store. Sapphire glass may be less prone to scratches as compared to its much lower and counterpart of Gorilla Glass however Sapphire is known to be more shatter prone then regular types of glass and quartz.. so though you may get an additional scratch or two with gorilla glass your chances of your screen actually cracking and breaking are less with gorilla glass than with sapphire. Also Sapphire is known to leave a glare and using these type of watches and bright light conditions does not work well with a glare as it's not a regular solid standard watch face the brightness and even the extra brightness abilities do not necessarily help all that great when it comes to Sapphire watches I know I also have an Apple Watch that is sapphire and I run into the same problems which is why I stopped using it and I went back to the gorilla glass options. Corning may not be the best but when it comes to SmartWatches I would still rather have Gorilla Glass than Sapphire if I was paying for a high end traditional watch like a Movado or a true Montblanc or a Piguet.. then I would choose Sapphire but I have to say my Movado connect 2.0 still looks beautiful after all this time even though there's almost no point they're using it anymore and that doesn't have Sapphire and there's not a scratch on it and I use it everywhere including work and at a desk and when I go out and when I'm gaming when I'm outside chopping wood and it hasn't had a scratch on it. Sapphire glass is not for every watch and I don't believe any Smartwatch merits Sapphire at least not from the lower end Brands like fossil and Scoggin even though Michael Kors is under their line I could see them using it as well as diesel because those are manhole covered watches as it is according to you LOL but they're choosing to not use Sapphire for a reason everybody thinks Sapphire has to be the way to go because of course Apple made it that way and it's like whenever Apple decides something that's the way that it has to go Apple did that because they know the price that you're going to have to pay when you crack that watch because you feel that it's glass is much standard and quality then Gorilla Glass so you're not going to take care of it as you would if it wasn't. Sapphire glass on a smartwatch was a business tactic to earn more money when it breaks. Take a look at how much it cost to replace a SmartWatch with a sapphire glass as opposed to replacing it with Gorilla Glass
