Welcome to 英語で雑談！Kevin's English Room Podcast.
Hello.
Hello.
Good morning.
Great opening. Yeah, good morning.
How are you?
I'm doing great, man.
Doing great?
Doing great.
Great, great. Good to hear that.
Yeah.
You got a new gadget or something?
It's a phone. It's an iPhone stand that I had in my room.
And, you know, with these high necks.
Kind of hard to put it on.
So I thought I'd bring this.
Clever.
Pretty nice, right?
Yeah.
I guess it's much more lighter and compact than like those tripods.
I see.
That are built for this, for microphones.
Is it like foldable?
Yes, it's like ultra-thin.
Oh, that's nice.
It's great.
Yeah.
See, now what I do is I just use my iPhone to track the time and write the titles on my Excel sheet.
Excuse me.
This timer here, it's not even a timer.
It's a video of a 20-minute video just counting up.
You're playing a video.
Because iPhones can't do multitasking.
I see.
Can you believe it?
We can't do multitasking.
That's unbelievable.
Still.
Well, you cannot use the timer, but you still use the video player.
Yeah.
The video player is the only thing that can do like a multi-screen thing.
Yeah.
Okay.
So, I decided to make a video.
Yeah.
Okay.
Now, I'm connected to a wireless keyboard, which I might...
I use this at home, but I might buy a new one, just like a lighter foldable one.
Oh, yeah.
Remember I had a foldable one when I had an iPad?
Yeah, I might just change into that.
Make it very, very light.
Yeah.
Now, you'll say it's very, very small.
Compact.
Compact, yes.
Right.
Very nomad.
So, you don't use the iPad anymore?
You don't carry the iPad anymore?
Sometimes you do?
Are you talking about the iPad mini?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
iPad mini, I sold it.
Oh, you sold it?
Yeah.
I have the iPad, I think the normal iPad.
Okay.
I got it from my wife.
She was like, I don't need it.
Yeah.
I'll buy it.
I have it.
But it's a little bit heavy.
Yeah, it's still heavy to the point where like, it's just as heavy as bringing an iPad, a
MacBook Air.
So, it's like, yeah.
Yeah.
So, now your options are, one is you're carrying that smartphone, you use it, or you bring
your MacBook Air.
MacBook Air.
That's right.
I see.
That's right, yeah.
So far, it's working out.
Yeah, it's so compact.
I like it.
Yeah.
You're good with, you work with those things?
No, no, just only, this is only a podcast.
Oh, I see.
I don't ever go to a cafe and do this.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I can't really work with a smartphone screen.
Yeah.
It's a bit too small.
It's too small to see things.
Yes, yes, yes.
3つ折りスマートフォンの登場
You know, the latest tech out there, you've seen a foldable one, right?
Yeah.
Now, it's a tri-fold.
Tri-fold?
That's right.
It's open and then open again.
You now actually have a legit tablet-sized.
Oh.
Yeah, so if it's a tri-fold, it's actually a tablet-sized.
So it should be like this.
That's right.
Oh, wow.
And it's, it works great.
I see.
Right.
I think, I think one came from Samsung.
Okay.
I think you've touched a Samsung Fold in the past, have you?
Or did you not?
That wasn't me.
That wasn't you?
That wasn't me.
Okay.
But Kagejin bought it.
Right.
I guess.
Right.
The foldable one.
The foldable one.
Yes.
I bought that too.
Yeah.
Right.
Now, they came with a tri-fold.
Okay.
Right.
The newer version of that.
The newer one.
Right.
Now, so the thing about Samsung Fold was that it had like a desktop mode.
Okay.
Older phones, I'm talking about.
Where you can connect it to a display and then it will act as like a Windows PC-ish kind
of thing.
Okay.
But now, with the tri-fold phone, they deleted, they decided not to have that feature anymore
because it can be a display on its own.
I see.
And it's.
Wow.
Wow.
Now you're carrying a full, like full-size screen in your pocket.
Yeah.
It's pretty futuristic.
True.
Yeah.
It will be a very good option for you now.
Right.
Using like phone.
That's right.
It can be like this screen at the same time.
I love working at cafes.
Yeah.
I love going places and doing shit.
Right.
So it's, I would love to have that.
So that means if you just carry that, like small keyboard or something and you can.
That's right.
Do anything you want.
Right.
Huh.
Oh.
Wait.
And a mouse too, right?
Yeah.
How do you.
Do you have a mouse?
Or.
I don't know about the mouse though.

I don't know about the mouse situation.
But.
Look, check this out.
What's that?
I bought this new.
Okay.
Wireless.
Um.
Mouse.
Is that mouse?
Yeah.
It's from Edicom.
Okay.
Very small.
It's in a cap.
You can open it and then attach it.
Okay.
The cap becomes a body.
And then boom.
Oh.
Wow.
Like a, you know, half-sized mouse.
And it's, it works pretty well.
Wow.
I like it.
Wow.
Wow.
Wow.
Ha ha.
Well, yeah.
It feels decent.
Like if it's too small, sometimes, you know, it's difficult to, you know, adjust or touch
or control.
Sure.
It's too cluttered.
Yeah.
But it's like.
It's a light.
Yeah.
You know.
It's doable.
It's good.
It's good.
Wow.
Pretty nice, right?
Yeah.
It looks good.
I know, right?
Yeah.
So now you're using that small mouse.
Yeah.
And foldable keyboard, I guess.
Uh-huh.
And then with, yeah.
And if you have that one, like a foldable, like a tri-foldable.
Yeah.
Phone.
Phone.
Phone, yeah.
Yeah.
I would have a laptop with me.
Very light.
Wow.
Wow.
Wow.
Are you planning to buy that one?
So, the thing is, I still cannot escape from Apple.
Oh, I see.
The ecosystem.
Yeah.
So.
Yeah.
I understand that.
But I heard the news that one of the Android devices is starting to adapt to AirDrop.
Oh, really?
So, yeah.
So, between Apple and Android, you can AirDrop.
Oh.
So, good news for me.
Right.
It is good news, right?
It's good news for me, too.
It's easier to go to Android now.
Right, right, right, right.
We have a small application called, I forget the name.
It's like AirDrop.
It's like AirDrop.
For Android.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And you can, through that application, you can send files to Apple devices, just like
AirPod.
AirPod?
AirDrop?
AirDrop, yeah.
But it's third-party.
Yeah.
Right?
And it doesn't work.
Sometimes glitchy.
Right, right, right.
Yeah.
So, good news for everybody.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Definitely.
That's right.
Yes.
I didn't know that you cannot use, like, multi-screen things.
I know, right?
I still don't know why.
Yeah.
I still don't know why.
They won't allow us to do it.
Right.
iPad, you can do it, right?
But not for phones.
For Android, you can do it.
So, it's, like, technically, I guess it's very possible.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Right.
So, I know.
All right.
So, thanks for listening, guys.
Thank you.
Bye-bye.
