Sorry bud, but no way GTA VI will come out next year. We’ll be *lucky* if we actually get it late 2026. Rockstar delayed GTA IV, GTA V, RDR2 multiple times…
I am most excited for the Tech Chap hands on of the ROG Ally X 2. Give me Tom gushing about the Z2E chip \o/ Come on Asus you know you gotta do it. Give this man the hands on.
I'm looking forward to the next Asus Zenbook Duo laptop. Heard and seen rumours floating around the internet, here's hoping they make a newer model, with a few more ports for us DJ's/music producers to connect things up to, 'cos, none of us like using hubs! 😉
Yes, smartglasses with displays I believe will become huge. Especially when the big tech companies start to release smartglasses / AR / XR glasses. Google has some AR project together with Samsung, and companies like Xiaomi and Sony are maybe developing smartglasses (just my guess).
Great video. What I don’t understand is why there is this obsession for making things as thin as possible. There is nothing more I would like than an iPhone PRO with no camera bump. Make it a smooth backed phone giving more space more battery and a much cleaner design.
As a 13 mini user the 16 was tempting but I held off, the SE4 seems like a solid upgrade as well. I’ll definitely wait and see, I don’t see it lasting me past next year when the battery health will get below 80.
I decided to switch to Volvo for my next electric vehicle, choosing the EX40 instead of the Tesla-like EX30. The EX40 offers a better driving position, with instruments and controls located in more intuitive places, so you don't have to turn your head to see your speed. It has all the same features, but with an added bonus-the EX40 functions as an Android device! This means you can run Google Maps or Waze without needing to bring your phone along (unless you want to make a call). It also comes fully equipped with Spotify and Audible, allowing you to download content. This way, you won’t have to rely on your phone's signal to keep listening, which is especially important in the UK, where connectivity is excellent throughout our major cities. The Volvo has it's on 4G LTE SIM so you can download content rather than spank your allowance, so worth checking out.
Not at all. The ultrawide Mac screen mirroring option is amazing. Apple Vision Pro isn't a mainstream consumer product, the price reflects that. Subsequent iterations will appeal to a broader market but for now AVP is the top of the line of the nascent AR/VR market.
Hey 🍎: how about a foldable iPhone? We know you wait until a new technology settles a bit before debuting your own better thought out version, so isn't 2025 the time?
The iPhone Air means that the iPhone Fold will be launching soon. All game consuls became boring, with nice graphics but a lousy gaming experience. The E-Ink tables jumped very nicely in 2024 and will be improved much more.
I see no more point to thin phones than I did to thin laptops. I thought the obsession with style over quality and engineering went out when Steve Jobs croaked. What I'd like is a phone I can comfortably carry in a hip pocket; it doesn't have to be iPhone 13 mini small, just shorter than an iPhone 16 or Galaxy S24. The Moto X (2014), Essential PH-1, and Galaxy S10e were all close to the sweet spot for me.
if the base iPad comes with a A18 for A.I., along with Apple Pencil Pro support like the Air and Mini, that makes it such an easy decision for consumers on which iPad to get. they are going to do something very stupid with this though since its Apple.
Thinner iPhone is stupid. Give me battery life and good thermals! It doesn't have to be art, it's supposed to be functional. They're innovating in the wrong direction.
Thank god someone states the fact that every idiot thing with an algorithm is considered AI now. Hell just cropping a photo in an image editor is considered AI. Looking forward to TikTok ban. The world will be a less terrible place.

Nothing about new android phones?.other than samsung, the new one plus 13? Laptops /desktops that you can actually play games on?. Arm laptops? Virtually half the video was for apple products. Theres a lot of tech going on, other than in the walled garden.
It makes me sad that you feel the need to comment about Elon. Like you’re trying to preempt the hate you’ll get if you add the disclaimer. Or just want to talk about to show you’re “one of them”. Either way, it was unnecessary. Stick to the tech.
I dont care abt iphone air... gv me iphone 17+ with 120hz display (everything else the same as 16+) and I will be happy to switch back to ios. Otherwise will stay w/ android.
Many people still love Tesla ;) Seems there is a political divide here. Also there are many people who can take the politics out of their feelings when it comes to car purchases. I know I would still buy something even if the ceo of the product had different political views to me. If I did take the view where the actions or politic leanings of the ceo impacted my buying decisions I would likely not own anything at all haha. Life is hard enough as it is.
Chatgpt is THAT revolutionary, for some activities. For data science, academic writing, programming, etc, it's literally as revolutionary as the invention of computer.
Poor Tom virtue signalling about someone giving us one, just one, social media platform for free ish speech. The world has moved on from Woke Tom. It's now passé.
Here we go again - another RUclipsr who feels the need to share his unwanted political opinion (re: Elon). I've been a loyal subscriber for years but just unsubscribed and won’t be coming back. Why can’t you guys stick to making videos without turning everything political? I don’t get it.
politics may have just gotten into a cultural war type shi*,mate, especially in this 2020s insane times, the guy (elon).. i mean one could immediately tell he's liberal just by looking at what he does, but still politics such a personal thing, isn't it (you or i don't agree fine, but no need addressing it in a tech community unless you're sure everyone or most are libs in there) lol
@@Thetechchap Not everyone? Sure thing. but he's just being kinda humorous, in a way (and sure"not everyone" would find his jokes funny) and even dials it into his political views, like jerryrigeverything was like: Oh he said he was trying to give Taylor Swift a baby dada..." lmao, like dude chill.. that was suppose to be a joke not disrespect, that's the best you could find? bruh

I’m hoping for larger than 32” 4k qd-oled monitors in 2025 … look forward to your content next year 🎉
Merry Christmas and happy New year, Tom! I'm looking forward to seeing all these new tech goodies they have to show us in 2025.

Apple is trash overpriced hype
You can get stalks for the Tesla Highlander as an aftermarket option from various companies and no doubt they will support the Juniper too.
Nice video , the tech chap. Anticipating a giveaway for the channel's 10th anniversary
Are you doing another 'tech Christmas gifts' video this year, Tom? Basically something I can point my family at and go 'choose anything shown here' 😀

Hi, very nice Tesla car and my father have Tesla too😁Tesla is very popular in Norway to be honest 😄i hope you enjoy in Christmas with your family 🙂😊
Amazon Kindles, some of them in a range of different colour backplates.
The problem with a thinner phone is that once you put a case on it you have lost the novelty.
Great point
Can’t wait for these

Most excited for rtx 5090. But the price will be frightening.
For me its the LG 45" 5k2k OLED monitor. Saving my pennies for it probably will be $1,600.
