ZOLLOQUERY
Hi everyone Aaron here for ZolloTech and many of you have been asking me to do a QA for probably a couple years now
And I thought it was finally time in 2018 to start doing this. I don't know how regular
I'll do it
but I thought maybe we could do this every once in a while if we had some new questions things like that so I
placed a poll or really a question on YouTube itself and
79 of you responded I think more than that actually took a look at it, but 79 of you responded and I'll try to answer
Probably five minutes worth of questions if I can so let's start. I'll scroll all the way to the bottom here I
Kind of start some ore hearted some that I thought would be good questions
The first question comes from Abu Baker Naya's hopefully I said that right and the question is do you think the iPhone 10 is worth?
its price and
This is the iPhone 10. I'm using it I
Really don't think it's worth a thousand dollars. I do think it's worth the price of an iPhone 8 plus
I think 850 somewhere in that range is probably
Fair I'm not sure what it cost to make it probably somewhere around
$500 or 350 to 500 dollars based on Apple's profit margin
I think it's a good phone, and I've had some issues with it that I've stated in the past
But I don't think it's a thousand dollar phone the next question comes from Brian Souza
It says do you ever use a case on your phone, or is it always caseless?
Do you slide it on a table sometimes or you pick it up slowly?
I do slide it on a table in fact if you look down here. I just set it down on a table
It's usually on a table like this or in my pocket or on a microfiber cloth
Sometimes it's in my car plugged in in the glove box
And the glove box is felt lined or cloth lined and being plugged in like that
Or placed like that is not really an issue for me. I think it protects the phone pretty. Well. I don't drop the phone
I'm very careful with it, and I'd have never really had an issue
I've never had a case full time on any iPhone the next question comes from Huck 77 it says
What are some features you would like to see on iOS 12 and the next iPhone?
What do you think it will be called and what do you think?
Apple's spring event will be this year a new iPhone se or red iPhone and I
think that
IOS 12 will come out and have some updates
I'm probably gonna do a video on that since we're starting to see some rumors on that or some leaks rather not rumors
I don't really like to report a whole lot on rumors. I like to report more on what we actually know from trusted sources
As far as what the next iPhone will be called it could be called the 10 plus
That's probably what it will be but it could be the 9 plus
I doubt they're gonna go that route
But you never know I have a I have an idea that it might be called the Apple phone
That's just my thoughts but since Apple seems to be getting rid of I everything so home pod Apple watch
iMac
Might go away, and be called. Just Mac. I'm not sure I I have no insight on that, but maybe it'll be something else soon
The next one comes from dimple Sony. It says some information about the 2018 iPhone models, please I
Don't really know. I don't actually have sources that have leaked anything to me yet, so I can't really say that
It's gonna be any different than we think other than a plus model and maybe a reduced
little notch there at the top at this point
We're not sure yet the next comment comes from viz Barry says when did you start your YouTube channel?
What were your original goals and where did you get your name from?
the first thing is I started in 2008 this is my 10th year doing YouTube and
My original goals was maybe I could try out some products give some opinions on them
I was kind of the go-to guy for many people about phones or technology in general so I thought
Let me give it a try and then where I got my name from is my last name is Zollo
I added tech to that and that's where the name comes from
the next one from Miguel Bonilla or banila
What was your first apple product my first personal apple product?
That I ever bought was an old
G4 I'm at or if g4 iBook rather. I don't have it anymore
It was at 933 megahertz edition
And then the first product that I was personally given as a gift was the 4th generation iPod
I still have it and I did a video on it probably a couple years ago
But it's it's pretty good still works the next question comes from Lauren Vanderloo
It says I bought into Apple for its reliability
back when it was an iPhone 4 or way back when it was an iPhone 4 one will reliability return I
Wouldn't say that reliability has gone out the window I'd say that software quality has gone downhill
So I don't think as far as this phone for example. This is a pretty well built high quality device
I think it's more along the lines of the software
And I think we're gonna see some changes with iOS 12 or at least I hope so the next one I get this question all
the time
euler-lagrange
Says does leaving iphone charging overnight with an iPad 12 watt USB adapter damaged the battery
No, it does not damage the battery
I've plugged in every single iPhone since the iPhone one
With an iPad charger and left it overnight every single night everyday. I've owned it
There's not a problem with that Apple actually
Monitors the voltage and just shuts it off when it's done for charging so it may say it's charged 100%
But they actually might drop to about 90% and then trickle charge it back up
They do a lot of monitoring of the battery to make sure it lasts over a long term
The next question is from Apple sheep 0 3 0 9 0 3 it says have you had a bad time with D monetization?
No, thankfully. I've only had I think one video demonetised. I sent it to review, and it was romana ties within
30 minutes to an hour so
Thankfully I haven't had a big issue with that, but usually people that have issues with that have something strange in the videos
that's not true of everyone obviously but a lot of people have something strange in the video and
Other things I can't really say
I don't know what the algorithm is but I haven't had too many issues with it the next question is from Ahmed Cuomo
I think it's ice in it or I'm apologizing if I mispronounce your name
It says if Steve Jobs if Steve Jobs was still alive
Do you think he will make iOS the way that it has been made by Apple today?
I really don't I don't know that he would have been for the flat design a hundred percent
he used to give it more of a
Real-world aesthetic to a lot of his designs and our playful designs for example
You don't see that a whole lot today. You see a lot of very sterile clean design and that has
Some good qualities to it, but I think it's lacking that human touch, so I think there would be some differences today
And I definitely don't think it would be as unstable with certain versions the next question comes from
Fat john hodie it says. Do you think Apple slows down older iPhones intentionally year after year by pushing updates. Please be honest
Respite or respect. I'm not sure if that's what that meant to say but
Yes, I do actually I think or recently I didn't think that until they admitted that they slowed it down
I think it's more that they got caught slowing it down and
Said yes some of its due to the battery and the CPU and the way that works
But I think the CPU is pushed to the limit so much so that if you don't have a hundred percent
Capable battery or ninety percent it can't push the voltage out, so it shuts the phone off
So they're each of either pushing the processors to the max or they got caught
However with iPhone 8 plus and iphone 10. They say that they've changed that so they've done something with it
Maybe they give the processor more overhead to operate on different or lower voltages over time
It's hard to say but yes. I do think they did that
What's your favorite product you've reviewed. That's from Lego therapy
I'm not sure I've had over. Well. I've been doing this 10 years now, so I'd have to say
My favorite product of all time
probably on the Mac side is
The older retina MacBooks the MacBook Pro the 2013 models in fact. I actually have one right here
This is a this is a 15-inch
2013 MacBook Pro I used for years editing video I still use it from time to time and
That's probably my favorite Apple product in a long time
Along with the air pods the air pods have really grown on me
Let's see what's the next one and this one's from Achmed coamo it says Apple should allow us to downgrade to old
IOS versions isn't it? I think you mean should they allow us to to downgrade I?
Think very much. They should allow us to downgrade specifically
This device the iPhone 4 4 s 5 5 s
I think
even the 6 if you want a down Graham to the last version of say iOS 9 or iOS 8
Just so you can use them
experience how they are it the loss of those features just to see which one's better and even for
Testing purposes like I do it's hard to go back to those versions, and then do comparisons and things like that
I did a comparison recently with iOS 9 10 and 11 and
Those were phones this one in particular is on iOS 9 the 6 plus. I've left it on 9
Since I've had it and on purpose because I I need it for testing those different things and being able to look back over time
There's no way to downgrade it without jailbreaking
It's just a pain
and they really should allow it to whatever the last version is at least I think for the last question this one will be a
Little bit longer it's from David go telly
It says when was the first time you really got interested in tech like what age and what was any particular?
Tech item that stood out at that age
Well, I've been into text since
The 80s when I was a child so I've always been into tech I got started on an 80 88
If you know what that is using DOS
my first personal computer was an Amiga 1000 I
Really liked that I had an original Nintendo. I've been into video games ever since and
I've been on bulletin boards before
AOL was even a thing so I've kind of been in it all along. It's just been a thing that I do
That's what I'm into so there isn't anything specific
But I would say if you if I had to pick an age 3 for something like that
Playing Atari and playing around with those computers
and then is there any particular tech item that stood out I
think for its day the Amiga was pretty powerful as far as graphics, and then I
Think the first thing that really stood out
Probably was when Windows 95 came out
And then I started to use that that was a pretty revolutionary change if you'd been on Windows back then
And then I made a shift to Mack later on and I've been I've used just about everything out there anything from Linux to be
os/2
You name it. I've probably messed around with it since I was a kid, so I've been in this a long time and
I
Don't know if there's there's much more to say about that, but it's just kind of something
I've always done and I enjoy and I've always looked at whatever's new whether that be Apple or not so that's it for this time
As far as Q&A goes I definitely plan to do more of these in the future, so I'll let you know through
through Twitter and through YouTube
What I'm going to do those and when to shoot your questions this way. I can't possibly
Do all of them in one video and just take forever and take probably over an hour
maybe I'll do a live video with some questions like that if you'd like to see that let me know in the comments below if
