604: Minimized Embiggening

I don't think we've got all people saying I've got a watch and it lasts me through the day all the time. My wife, she's grand. She's got a Series 9, but she had a Series 8.

for a year and it it was fine by the end of the year uh maybe either you just got unlucky or maybe you have like some runway process that's killing your battery because every once in a while my wife will say oh today my watch battery ran down i don't understand why but then it goes back to normal and i never hear about it again so i think you just might have lost the battery lottery on that particular watch

And by the way, the way it reportedly does it is based on like the movement of your wrists and not by, say, measuring your blood oxygen, which is good because.

Disabled only for U.S. customers. If you're in Canada or any place else in the world, you get blood oxygen measurement, but not inside the U.S. Yep.

So here's the question. Is the hardware different in the noise-canceling version and the non-noise-canceling version?

Don't you think the regular ones have multiple microphones for just like voice isolation and the other voice features? Yeah. I don't know. I mean, either way, like microphones aren't expensive. Like this is not like what I'm saying is like economically, it might make more sense for Apple to make one AirPods for a piece of hardware.

Like why make two different ones where even if one of them had to have more microphones, why don't we just put the more microphones in all of them? It's simpler. It simplifies everything, inventory, everything. And that this is purely like a software interlock where when you pay them $50 more, they enable the noise canceling features. Obviously, you know, I fix it.

We'll tear these things down and let us know. But I have to say, this weird thing of like AirPods 4, there's the regular one and the one that costs $50 more that has more features, right? And yes, they give you a better case with it and everything, which is more sort of like market segmentation.

But this smells so much like, you know, when they say like, this is one computer and if you pay more money, you can get, you know, more RAM in it or whatever. I don't know if these pieces of hardware are different. And in the end, it doesn't really matter because I don't think it's going to be particularly easy to buy an AirPods 4 and hack it to enable the noise canceling.
