the new Lenovo Chromebook duet 11in is
0:02
finally here and it comes with a new
0:03
mediatech compano 838 processor inside
0:06
that makes this Chromebook tablet super
0:08
portable and versatile ready for
0:10
whatever you throw at it and if you've
0:12
been a fan of the duet lineup since the
0:13
Beloved original was released back in
0:15
20120 you know that this compano 838
0:18
marks the return of mediatech to the
0:20
duet series if you remember the duet 3
0:23
and the duet 5 were both powered by a
0:25
Qualcomm Snapdragon processor but we now
0:27
know that Qualcomm has canceled a hand
0:30
full of Snapdragon 7c gen 3 powered
0:32
devices that were previously in
0:34
development which leaves mediatech to
0:36
lead the way but what does all this mean
0:38
for the future of arm Computing on
0:40
Chromebooks well we sat down with Victor
0:42
Tien from mediatech to learn a little
0:44
bit more about the compano 838 processor
0:47
that's powering the new duet and to
0:50
learn about how they're working with
0:52
Google and other Chromebook
0:53
manufacturers to push the arm Market
0:56
forward so let's Dive In
1:02
but before we get into it a big thanks
1:04
to mediatech for sponsoring this video
1:06

get entered into the giveaway and to
1:50
learn more about
1:53
[Music]
1:55
mediatech check check one two so I I
1:59
think I'd like to start with just this
2:01
new chip that we've got in the Lenovo
2:04
Chromebook duet 11in gen 9 I think is
2:07
the official title uh but inside that
2:09
device is a new mediatech chip the
2:12
compano 838 and and so I think I'd like
2:14
to just start there um tell us a little
2:17
bit about this chip yeah yeah absolutely
2:19
Joe um maybe a little bit of context
2:21
before I jump into that uh you know
2:24
again mediatech is uh focused on all the
2:27
top oems we work with Acer Asus uh HP
2:32
Lenovo uh to bring exciting Chromebooks
2:35
to the market we are arm-based like you
2:37
said uh so this technology has come a
2:39
long way uh obviously has some very uh
2:42
good benefits when it comes to power
2:44
efficiency which we heavily leverag
2:46
we're actually number one in the
2:48
arm-based Computing space in the
2:50
Chromebook program so um that is uh
2:53
where we currently stand we have our
2:54
compano line of processors that I know
2:58
uh Joe you're very familiar with
3:00
um and the strategy is really kind of to
3:03
have that good better best so we're
3:04
trying to cover you know all the
3:06
segments we have our ENT series uh that
3:09
is uh the compano 500 series we have the
3:12
compano 800 series for the mid and then
3:14
compano 1,000 for the premium and the
3:16
compano 838 uh like you said is our
3:19
latest member so we're very excited to
3:21
bring that into the portfolio and it
3:23
falls in that kind of mid segment uh of
3:27
uh of processors and you know the the
3:29
main benefits that it brings uh is
3:32
really around three areas you know
3:34
performance is one big one multimedia is
3:36
the other one and of course that battery
3:38
life is is always there so on the
3:40
performance side of things you know it's
3:41
leveraging 6 nanometer tsmc technology
3:44
so very power efficient technology very
3:46
performant we've also upu the
3:48
architecture quite a bit here with uh
3:51
it's still an octacore architecture but
3:53
it's a 2 plus 6 configuration two big
3:55
cores uh the cordex a78 which are very
3:58
powerful and very uh helpful when it
4:01
comes to running you know more heavy
4:03
loads and then we have the six uh
4:06
efficiency cores to make sure that we
4:08
are uh maintaining a very power
4:10
efficient implementation and if you look
4:12
at you know the compano 520 which is a
4:16
very uh famous kind of chipset in that
4:19
in entry segments a lot of people know
4:21
about it we're talking about you know
4:23
57% higher single core performance 31%
4:27
higher multi-core performance 102% High
4:30
higher uh GPU performance so all around
4:33
you know it's really a step up from that
4:35
entry segment product um and then when
4:38
you look at um you know the duet which
4:40
is where that compano 838 is is
4:43
currently powering um you see a 30% gen
4:46
on- gen Improvement versus the previous
4:49
uh uh generation of that duet so you
4:51
know either way you look at it it's
4:52
really a step up in terms of uh
4:55
performance and then on the multimedia
4:57
side of things it's uh lots of benefits
4:59
there that we've introduced including uh
5:02
you know smartphone class cameras an AI
5:05
Processing Unit an npu uh you know 4K uh
5:08
display support it's also been brought
5:11
into this chipset so you can also use it
5:14
in a kind of desktop experience um and
5:17
then like I said all this still
5:18
happening within this amazing all day
5:20
battery life you know so obviously the 6
5:23
nanometer tsmt technology benefits a lot
5:25
the arm technology benefits a lot and
5:27
then mediatech has just been up
5:29
optimizing for portable uh experiences
5:32
for decades so we have a lot of In-House
5:34
experience we really know how to build
5:36
these chipsets so that uh they're power
5:39
efficient while still giving you all the
5:41
performance that you need so um that's a
5:43
little bit on the compan way 38 uh but
5:46
yeah very excited to be here talking to
5:48
you about uh you know powering the the
5:50
latest duet so you kind of hit on on
5:52
this a little bit but will you kind of
5:55
clarify exactly kind of where it falls
5:57
in the lineup so from a pure kind of
5:59
benefits perspective looking at the
6:02
previous generation to what we're
6:03
getting now specifically just in the
6:04
duet so for somebody who had the
6:05
original duet what what sort of what
6:07
what sort of things are they going to be
6:08
able to do with this new chip that maybe
6:10
they couldn't before yeah that's a it's
6:12
a great question I think you know when
6:14
you look at the first of all you're
6:16
going to get a you know a roughly 30%
6:19
overall performance bump you know
6:21
previous gen to current gen uh so you're
6:24
going to experience know just a lot more
6:25
Snappy experience it's going to be um
6:29
you know that that whole experience in
6:31
terms of
6:32
multitasking running workloads that may
6:34
be more demanding on device uh those are
6:37
all going to be enhanced for sure you're
6:39
going to see some AI functionality being
6:43
uh available on this device that again
6:45
um is new um for example we have uh
6:50
ported over an algorithm called a super
6:52
resolution super resolution is uh
6:55
basically a function that uh can run
6:58
very nicely on an npu so it it you know
7:00
you're offloading your CPU and GPU so
7:02
you're running it very efficiently on
7:04
that AI accelerator and it's able to
7:06
give you upscaling of low resolution
7:09
images so if you have an image that may
7:11
not have the best sharpness and Clarity
7:14
you apply this algorithm and and there
7:16
you go it gets enhanced and even with
7:18
high resolution images it's able to
7:20
apply uh uh more clarity and more uh uh
7:24
preciseness to the image so these are
7:26
some of the functions that you're going
7:28
to see kind of coming about of course in
7:30
the camera space uh there's some really
7:33
good enhancements here especially when
7:35
it comes to low light um um noise
7:37
reduction so um we've basically now
7:40
utilized the 5 megapixel Plus 8
7:42
megapixel front and back cameras that
7:45
are on chip on the companion 838 but in
7:48
addition to that mediatech is applying
7:51
uh algorithms to help improve the image
7:54
uh when you're in low light uh uh
7:56
conditions so for example if you're in
7:58
the living room or maybe in a bedroom
8:00
setting where the lighting is not
8:01
optimal that's really where these
8:03
cameras really shine and I've been using
8:04
the device uh myself the last few weeks
8:07
and it's it's incredible when you
8:08
compare it to the previous gen the
8:10
enhancements uh in in those uh
8:13
environments so those are just some of
8:14
the areas where you're going to see you
8:16
know Improvement of performance you know
8:18
AI functionality camera functionality
8:21
these are and and and in fact lovo has
8:23
done uh many more enhancements uh you
8:26
know for the device itself and whether
8:28
it's in the audio department whether
8:31
it's the keyboard and the Privacy
8:33
shutter you know I mean there's so many
8:34
things that they've added to an already
8:36
amazing device I think the original duet
8:39
was awesome um it's gone through a
8:42
couple of generations now but um it's
8:45
it's just getting better and better and
8:46
just so much value packed into this
8:48
device yeah the the performance alone
8:51
being such a a tab hoarder you know I
8:54
have at any given time 20 to 30 tabs
8:57
open and you know with the the previous
9:00
generations of the duet I would
9:02
immediately start seeing maybe a little
9:03
bit of uh especially in multitasking
9:06
maybe a little bit of slowdown um but
9:07
this thing is just powering through my
9:09
workload no problem and then you know I
9:11
don't I don't have um As Nice of a
9:14
external display as Robbie has but
9:15
Robbie noted in his review you know 120
9:18
HZ on his external display running
9:19
perfectly um and he also noted in the in
9:22
the review the cameras I mean this is
9:25
this is a a finally like very usable
9:29
functional video and photo uh use case
9:32
on this duet yeah absolutely absolutely
9:35
and Joe just to add on the uh on the 4K
9:38
display I mean I what I love about this
9:41
device is you know you got the 8 gab
9:43
option so if you want to do more
9:44
multitasking you've got the the extra
9:46
headro there so um that's a big
9:49
Advantage I I really think this is an an
9:51
excellent secondary device for people
9:53
who are traveling you know working in
9:55
tight spaces you know just they just
9:57
want that amazing portability but what
9:59
really impressed me is when I um looked
10:02
at how this device can actually run a
10:04
full desktop experience so if you
10:06
connect this to an external 4K display
10:09
with an external keyboard you know
10:11
you've got this small but very Mighty
10:13
device where you have all your
10:15
information in one place but powering a
10:18
full desktop experience and that's where
10:20
I think um you know the previous jens's
10:22
Duets uh probably didn't do so well in
10:24
that area but now you have it all pretty
10:27
much you know you have a tablet that is
10:29
is so powerful that can be used in full
10:32
tablet mode detachable mode if you're
10:34
you know want to be portable but have
10:36
the keyboard and then when you get to
10:37
your office you dock that thing and and
10:40
there you go you have that full-blown
10:42
experience I think uh for me that was uh
10:44
you know very impressive and and and so
10:47
excited that we're actually there with
10:49
with detachables I mean I think they've
10:50
gone a long way uh to get to this point
10:53
so you you mentioned some of the AI
10:55
capabilities uh that are kind of built
10:57
into this chip and that that was one
10:58
thing that we noticed uh when the chip
11:00
was first announced we saw some of the
11:03
neurocore um and some of the AI um I
11:06
think I think you said AI accelerator we
11:08
were maybe wondering if this device was
11:11
going to be Chromebook plus uh it's it's
11:13
since been you know announced and
11:14
released and it is not Chromebook plus
11:17
but it has some of these AI capabilities
11:18
so C can you talk a little bit maybe
11:20
about um this chip in particular and
11:23
some of those extra AI things that you
11:25
all have done and maybe some of that
11:27
decision process to maybe not make this
11:30
um Chromebook plus and I know some of
11:32
that is you know to hit the spec
11:34
requirements but you can you just talk a
11:35
little bit about the AI uh on this chip
11:38
because that's one question we get a lot
11:39
is people are like oh man we I I saw
11:41
that it has some of these AI
11:42
capabilities I was wondering if it was
11:44
going to be chromic plus um and now we
11:46
you know now we know that it's not I I
11:48
think if you could just clarify that for
11:50
folks I think that would be great yeah
11:51
sure I mean there's a lot of an AI
11:53
infused into this uh processor and the
11:56
duet obviously like like I had mentioned
11:58
there that dedic at npu with that super
12:00
resolution feature and we hope in the
12:03
future there'll be you know more
12:05
functionality running on that resource
12:08
there's uh AI functionality built into
12:10
the camera subsystem which is doing all
12:13
that low light noise reduction it's
12:14
doing face detection and applying you
12:17
know Auto exposure autofocus Auto wide
12:20
balance all the enhancements to make
12:22
that picture uh as look as fast as
12:25
possible and then of course there's uh
12:28
lots of AI that even Google has brought
12:30
into the uh into the picture with uh
12:33
things like the stylus we didn't talk
12:35
too much about that but the stylus is
12:37
super smooth on this device and um a lot
12:40
of the the the the reason behind that is
12:43
AI algorithms that are running in the
12:45
background giving you all that uh
12:48
amazing experience so for example you
12:50
know when you're using the stylus your
12:51
palm you you may have unwanted Palm
12:54
touches on the on the display AI
12:57
algorithms are running there to remove
12:59
those and gave you that really smooth
13:01
experience um Google has done an amazing
13:03
job with um you know PDF search that's
13:07
also running on uh on the companionway
13:09
38 so basically taking a PDF document
13:11
that may have graphics and text embedded
13:14
into it but allowing you to search for
13:16
in that document just like a regular
13:18
text document so these are all
13:20
enhancements that are built into duet so
13:22
lots of AI going on now to your question
13:24
about Chromebook plus yeah Chromebook
13:27
plus has a whole set of requirements
13:29
some of them are processor related and
13:32
some of them are device related you know
13:33
on the device side you have to have
13:35
certain memory configurations certain
13:37
display resolution to qualify um the
13:41
duet all around um you know didn't meet
13:43
all the requirements so couldn't be
13:45
classified as Chromebook plus but but
13:47
like I said it has uh a lot of AI
13:50
infused into this device and I think you
13:52
you you'll continue to see you know at
13:53
least from a mediatech perspective in
13:55
our road map you'll see a lot more
13:57
Chromebook plus devices you know coming
14:00
uh in the future so that's definitely
14:02
part of our um our vision you know going
14:04
forward so I think one thing that might
14:06
be um interesting for you to share a bit
14:08
on here uh and you kind of talked about
14:10
it a little bit already but the
14:11
collaboration that you all have with
14:14
with Google and Lenovo um you know
14:16
obviously with Chrome OS we know that
14:18
you all are are are tied in uh with
14:21
Google and are working with Google when
14:23
you all are developing chips but what's
14:24
that partnership like between between
14:26
those parties and and yeah just like
14:29
what what is that collaboration like
14:31
yeah it's uh I mean it requires a lot of
14:34
uh tight um alignment between the
14:37
different partners uh to bring devices
14:40
like the duet uh that are so amazing and
14:43
in in all respects uh and and launch
14:45
them on time and you know make sure that
14:47
they're successful in the market so
14:50
there's a lot of work going on there
14:51
both on the product side you know uh
14:53
getting requirements from Lenovo uh
14:56
understanding the market trends and then
14:58
working with Google to get all those uh
15:01
features implemented and and and
15:04
launched on time so um you know it's
15:07
it's incredible the amount of work that
15:09
goes on between product teams between
15:12
mediatech Google Lenovo um in Asia in
15:16
the US in in in you know multiple
15:19
locations uh and then of course um what
15:22
we have really beefed up in the last
15:24
couple of years is the go to market
15:26
efforts to make sure that all these uh
15:29
products are very well understood in the
15:31
market the value prop the features how
15:33
they enhance people's lives and uh and
15:36
and that's a big function of uh of my
15:38
team obviously uh so a lot of work going
15:41
on there in addition to the product side
15:43
of things uh I mean the duet the first
15:45
duet launched in 2020 and that was an
15:47
amazing device in itself so um you know
15:50
we've had a really good platform to work
15:52
with over time and and you can see how
15:55
Lenovo has continued to improve that
15:57
product uh you know better C cameras
15:59
privacy shutter the keyboard experience
16:01
is so much better now uh powerful
16:04
processes like the compano 838 we see
16:06
like the angled kickstand that's really
16:10
U uh kind of a a very uh intuitive kind
16:12
of way of using the device not just the
16:14
landscape mode but also portrait mode um
16:17
Google has done so much on the AI
16:19
features and the and the Chrome OS um
16:21
platform in general I would say has been
16:24
and and I know you folks following it
16:25
feature by feature it's just getting
16:27
richer and richer all the time um but
16:30
features like super resolution that I
16:32
talked about the stylus Palm rejection
16:34
that is uh incredible in terms of you
16:37
know AI algorithms that make that
16:39
experience so smooth the PDF OCR search
16:42
that's allowing you to just work with
16:44
PDF documents and uh just like you would
16:46
with a regular text document and then of
16:49
course you know on the media mediatech
16:51
side um our contribution is all around
16:53
the processor the the cameras and the
16:56
npu that we build inhouse and then of
16:58
course course uh things that are maybe
17:00
not talked about too much but mediatech
17:02
is also providing all of the components
17:04
that go around the main processor the
17:06
power management the Wi-Fi connectivity
17:08
is all built inhouse uh and it's just
17:10
incredible to see all that coming
17:12
together on the duet um and while the
17:16
device is still that thin light and
17:18
extreme portability so it has not
17:20
exploded in size it it's still
17:22
maintained it's its beautiful Sleek uh
17:25
design and uh it still has that 12 hours
17:28
plus of battery life to get you
17:30
throughout the day so it it's just an
17:32
incredible collaboration from all
17:34
parties coming together and you know we
17:36
look forward to continuing work with
17:37
Google and lovo and bring more of these
17:40
exciting uh products to the market so
17:42
Victor you know one of the things that
17:44
you uh mentioned just a moment ago are
17:46
some of these different segments that
17:48
mediatech is in you know this device in
17:51
particular the uh the new duet has a
17:53
separate skew for Education that has a
17:55
more rugged case and a separate pen
17:57
holder um or a different pen holder
17:59
rather um so can you talk a little bit
18:02
about some of the successes that you all
18:04
are seeing in both the consumer and
18:06
education markets yeah yes uh we're
18:08
super excited about the Lenovo duet
18:11
coming the ruggedized uh flavor so we
18:13
think that's going to be awesome for uh
18:16
especially some of the younger kids that
18:18
uh will will will likely take the device
18:20
through some more challenging
18:22
experiences but overall uh Joe I mean
18:25
we're seeing great adoption on mediatech
18:26
companion products in both consumer and
18:29
education segments um and I think it's a
18:31
it's a Testament of the great products
18:33
that our um our OEM partners are
18:37
developing with companion technology um
18:40
including of course all the goto Market
18:42
efforts that we're putting together to
18:45
bring that awareness to the market and
18:46
make them successful so if you look at
18:49
the consumer segment for example we have
18:51
the as
18:52
cm14 that is a clamshell convertible
18:55
device that's done very well in retail
18:57
channels there's the AC m30 which is
19:00
another detachable device that's also
19:02
done really well the Lenovo Slim 3 which
19:05
I'm sure you folks are familiar with has
19:07
been a a number one seller at many
19:10
retailers uh including Best Buy if you
19:12
look at Best Buy actually um you'll see
19:15
I think something like over 1,200
19:17
reviews 4.6 stars um and you know a lot
19:20
of that is just about the value that
19:23
these products bring you know just great
19:25
build quality great display on the Slim
19:28
3 uh the the performance that you need
19:30
to get your work done uh and never
19:32
having to worry about um charging just
19:35
incredible battery life on these devices
19:37
I think 13 14 15 plus hours of battery
19:39
life so just I think a lot of value
19:42
being recognized in the market and the
19:43
consumer space and education is one
19:45
where we're putting a lot of effort um
19:47
obviously Chromebooks have resonated
19:49
very well in the education segment uh
19:51
and we uh uh put our Focus there to a
19:55
lot of investment around events so we
19:57
get in front of the you know School
19:59
District it decision makers at the major
20:03
events like bet will be at in London in
20:05
in January next year showcasing our
20:07
technology we'll be at FC here in the US
20:10
which is another Big Show and then in
20:11
Japan that's also taking off really well
20:14
with Chromebooks uh will be at a a major
20:17
event there so you know a lot of focus
20:19
on the events but also getting in the uh
20:23
you know online channels where again
20:25
schools get a lot of their it
20:26
information to empower them you know
20:28
education week for example is a channel
20:31
that we leverage quite a bit and you'll
20:32
see a lot of mediate Tech information
20:35
being communicated there we work with
20:37
our reseller Partners you know the cdws
20:39
of of the world just to again make sure
20:41
that they are fully comfortable with uh
20:44
the mediatech value prop and and we're
20:46
starting to see a lot of success you
20:48
know with specific devices like lenovo's
20:51
100e and 300E their Gen4 has been so
20:53
well received in the market Acer and
20:56
Asus have incredible devices again and
20:58
targeting the the kind of K12 segment HP
21:02
just launched their Forest device in uh
21:04
Japan actually just a few weeks ago and
21:07
we're looking to bring that to more
21:09
regions um you know just overall I think
21:11
schools are are starting to be a lot
21:13
more comfortable with medch compano and
21:15
they're seeing the benefit that
21:17
stressfree experience that both students
21:19
and teachers need to focus on the on the
21:22
learning and teaching element and not
21:24
having to fight with uh with technology
21:27
throughout the day the kind of the last
21:28
thing here I I wanted to wrap up with is
21:31
just talking about the compano lineup
21:33
and and where it's heading you know it
21:35
was it was a few years ago at the um
21:37
executive Summit where we we first heard
21:39
about the compano branding and we we
21:41
love it and you know we're excited for
21:44
the future so so what does that look
21:46
like what's the what's the what's next
21:47
for the the compano series yeah I mean
21:50
you know I mentioned kind of our number
21:52
one position you know being uh number
21:54
one kind of in the Arm based Computing
21:56
space uh in the Chromebook progr program
21:59
and you know we definitely look to
22:00
maintain that position and also increase
22:02
our market share over time you know so
22:05
uh from a market market perspective you
22:07
know those are some of the areas that we
22:09
want to uh uh continue focusing on and
22:12
we do see this kind of Chromebooks as
22:16
being that constant companion you know
22:18
as they become more powerful as as they
22:20
as as they have to the point where we
22:22
actually need their functionality
22:24
throughout the day you know that
22:26
resonates very much with a compano brand
22:28
which is that always with you Computing
22:30
so we definitely see that strong need
22:32
for devices to be with you and uh and I
22:36
think uh our our products are are very
22:38
kind of well aligned with that of course
22:40
we see more demand for AI I mean we're
22:42
seeing that today with functions like
22:45
you know background blur and text
22:47
summarization and you know meeting notes
22:50
you know you get on a meet call and you
22:51
get your action items and your summary
22:53
there I mean these are just very uh very
22:56
very useful features that going to
22:58
increase
22:59
productivity um and we also see a trend
23:03
where you know some of those functions
23:05
are going to need to run on the edge you
23:07
know I mean today you'll see AI
23:09
functions running uh on cloud there'll
23:12
be some Edge com uh uh needs but you
23:14
know over time we do see those
23:16
increasing and there'll be functions uh
23:18
that require low latency privacy is
23:20
important and then in some cases even
23:22
offline mod just being able to run those
23:25
functions uh completely when you're not
23:27
even connected to the internet so um
23:30
these are areas that uh we see the
23:32
market going in and where we do see
23:34
ourselves being well positioned I mean
23:36
if you if you think about the dimensity
23:38
9400 that powers our Flagship smartphone
23:41
chipsets uh uh that just launched um a
23:45
couple of uh weeks ago actually with a
23:47
very powerful npu so you know the
23:50
technology that is inhouse to be able to
23:52
run that kind of edge uh AI workload and
23:55
then the other area that we see being
23:57
critical um is the this performance per
23:59
wat um and performance per wat you know
24:02
for me I like to think of it as you know
24:04
I'm getting my work done in a very
24:06
performant way but what was the impact
24:07
to the battery uh while I did my
24:10
function and we know today there are
24:11
systems out there that are just very bad
24:13
in that department to the point where
24:16
consumers will feel uh stressed
24:19
throughout the day they will feel they
24:20
have to be confined to specific location
24:22
you know te it to an AC outlet uh and
24:25
you know our vision is is very different
24:27
to that where you have that extreme
24:29
portability and if you look at the duet
24:31
actually um you know it's got a 29w
24:34
battery but still giving you 12 hours of
24:36
battery life right so it's a very
24:38
impressive uh metric there and we're
24:40
seeing that resonate very much again in
24:42
the in the different markets in consumer
24:44
in education so I think you know
24:47
thinking of AI thinking of that whole
24:51
performance per wat advantage that
24:53
mediatech has I think we're very well
24:54
positioned uh uh in the coming years to
24:57
meet the needs of the of the market and
24:59
I know Joe that you folks at chroman box
25:03
are always looking at the future to see
25:05
what's coming I can't talk a lot about
25:07
this but I can tell you that uh we are
25:09
Brewing something very special in the
25:11
premium space you know high performance
25:14
processor with Advanced Edge generative
25:17
AI capabilities that we are confident
25:19
that you folks will love and we hope
25:20
that uh you know it will uh resonate
25:22
very well in the market too so um we'll
25:25
share more with you on that you know as
25:27
it as it becomes available but I wanted
25:28
to just share with you that that tidbit
25:31
in the meantime I love it a little a
25:32
little sneak peek at the end that's
25:34
great yeah we um yeah we love what you
25:37
all are doing we we've been big fans of
25:38
mediatech over the years and uh yeah
25:41
excited for the future and for for new
25:43
devices that are that are thin and light
25:45
great battery life but also performant
25:47
and allow you to get all your stuff done
25:49
with AI on top of it so um it's an
25:52
exciting future and we can't wait to see
25:54
uh what you all have have cooking for
25:56
this next version but uh Victor thanks
25:58
so much for taking some time today uh
26:00
this has been great and uh yeah we we'll
26:02
definitely catch up uh hopefully sooner
26:04
rather than later when we get maybe
26:06
another announcement yeah thank thank
26:08
