Shadowing-Übung: Week In My Life With The iPhone 18 Pro Max As a Software Engineer - Englisch Sprechen Lernen mit Video
Lektion wird erstellt...
1
I feel like this year the headlines have been all about the new iPhone Duo
2
and you know for good reason that thing looks amazing but
3
that just means something else was kind of swept under the rug.
4
Now I've been using the new iPhone 18 Pro Max for the past almost two weeks at this point
5
and I can confidently say that the headlines they don't tell the whole story.
6
So this time I wanted to take you through a week
7
in my life as a software engineer use the new iPhone 18 Pro Max and tell you what it's really all about.
8
okay what's going on y 'all yesterday was my birthday i
9
turned 26 that's pretty brutal you know 25 was still young
10
but 26 it started to push into that unk territory
11
so i just i just feel old
12
but the birthday itself was really nice my girlfriend surprised me
13
with this i guess a little staycation she hung up all these balloons
14
and stuff on the wall but yeah we went to the spa had a nice dinner
15
and we just came back from breakfast
16
and it just happens to be the 18th of september as well
17
which means the new iphones have just launched
18
and i've just received the message from the store from
19
which i bought mine from that it's ready for pickup
20
so we're gonna be checking out of the hotel real soon go pick up the phone
21
and then i need to get some work done as well.
22
We have performance review season and all this stuff is going on.
23
Let's go.
24
it shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that I went with the glazer color this year.
25
Light blue is definitely my favorite color.
26
Now I got the one terabyte option because I take a lot of photos
27
and videos but the price is steep
28
so i'd recommend going for the 512 gigs and you know
29
that should be more than enough for most people who don't shoot log footage
30
and stuff and even if you do just transfer
31
that video file over to your laptop or something
32
and then delete it from your phone
33
and you'll be all right now the chatter on the internet
34
has been all about this phone being the same as last
35
year without few small upgrades i don't think the intention is to have this insane year over year upgrades anymore
36
and if we use that logic then even Samsung has just been re -releasing the same phone for the last few years.
37
So this phone is more for people coming from the pre -USB -C iPhones
38
or if you just want to ball out with the newest colors.
39
Guess you could make an argument for the new camera features if you're creative.
40
We'll talk about those a bit more in detail later
41
but let's be honest the updated camera app could have just been a software update.
42
Also the name glacier is definitely living up to its name
43
because the new vapor chamber is for sure keeping the chip ice cold.
44
To this day I've never had the phone start lagging on me, all the display being dimmed in direct sunlight
45
and these kind of things can go unnoticed easily especially
46
when you get used to it but these are the details that still make iPhone king.
47
Everything just simply works and you don't have to even think about it.
48
Lastly I gotta mention the battery life.
49
I've been on this phone for a couple of weeks now
50
and i can easily get 10 hours plus screen time
51
if i needed to like if you want a device
52
that you never have to worry about charging
53
when you're just going about your day then this is it
54
for sure okay the phone is mostly set up now still got a couple of apps
55
that i need to install for some reason the iCloud setup
56
um didn't pick up all the apps from my old phone
57
but for the most part the setup process was really smooth
58
we're about to have this all hands meeting where basically every
59
two weeks people can showcase whatever they've been working on and
60
if you've been watching the vlogs then you know
61
that i've been talking about this project that i've been working on
62
and how it's been very stressful and stuff finally that project has come
63
not to an end
64
because you know how it goes these projects they never really end they just evolve over time
65
but finally it's at a point where i can actually demo it
66
so i'm about to have this demo in front of i
67
don't know how many people are going to join probably like 200
68
or something okay one more thing before we lock in i finally got a dining table
69
and please tell me i'm not the only one i have
70
this beautiful setup over there built for whatever reason recently ever
71
since getting the dining table i've been finding myself working here
72
i don't know it just feels like i unlocked a whole
73
new area of the apartment after i got this dining table and yeah i just been really liking working here
74
all right just going over the annual performance review stuff before the meeting
75
and i have to write my self -assessment this year i think i did really good i had
76
that one major project that i've been talking about on the channel
77
and that project was and will be used for some pretty important stuff
78
which i can't comment on but still i don't know
79
if this is enough for a senior promo though
80
because i haven't done any mentoring during this period
81
which is a quality for seniors and yeah we just haven't had any interns
82
or really any new devs joining for a while
83
so yeah i'll keep you all updated on how things go later this year
84
and then it was finally time for my demo one thing
85
that youtube has helped me a lot with is public speaking
86
so nowadays i get way less nervous when presenting stuff
87
and yeah i think people enjoyed the demo at least i got some really good feedback hey luke absolutely loved
88
that video man i'm sorry
89
but i can't hear anything you're saying right now oh sorry about
90
that i'm just cleaning my apartment it's really messy in
91
always something with this guy okay i'm back now i switched
92
to these new headphones from anchor sound for it's called the space 2 pro lineup whoa
93
that sounds really good i can't even hear the vacuum cleaning yeah dude it's pretty wild there parts
94
but it's just ai chip so the voice isolation on this is next level
95
so yeah these are the new anchor soundcore space 2 pro headphones
96
and for under 200 bucks they have really great value they use adaptive anc 3 .0
97
which comes in clutch because when the ANC is turned on, I genuinely barely hear anything outside of the headphones.
98
But something that really takes these headphones to the next level is the call quality.
99
In a nutshell, they put their new DAS AI chip into these alongside with six microphones.
100
And yes, I know, I know, you probably hate AI at this point.
101
But this allows for the headphones to isolate your voice from the background noise incredibly well.
102
So when you're taking calls or meetings in a busy area, then the other people in the call will still hear you
103
clearly instead of all the random background noises the headphones also
104
hold a guinness world record for the world's clearest call headphones
105
which they earned in independent lab testing against 18 flagship competitors
106
but still that's kind of crazy for a pair of headphones
107
that cost under 200 bucks
108
and lastly you get up to 30 hours of battery with anc on
109
and they're super light and comfortable
110
so you can wear these the entire working day with ease but yeah
111
if you'll be looking to upgrade your headphones then the space
112
2 pro lineup from anchor soundcore is genuinely really good value for money
113
and if you prefer open ear they just came out with the aeroclip 2 lineup
114
that gives you the world's clearest open ear earbuds for calls
115
also you can match the color of the earbuds to your
116
new iphone i'll link them in the first link in the description where you can scoop yourself a pair
117
and a big thank you to anchor soundcore for supporting the channel and sponsoring the video
118
Then I had to catch up on some work to end the evening
119
because I was running after the iPhone in the morning.
120
You know I feel like something really happened at the start
121
of this year where AI became really good at programming
122
and unfortunately some areas that used to be fun have become obsolete like fixing a bug or something.
123
So it almost feels like a piece of my job has disappeared
124
and I don't know man it's just been a wild year.
125
Now that area of the job that disappeared got replaced with some other stuff
126
and yeah the problem nowadays is that AI written code is almost always correct.
127
The main problem is trying to figure out all the times
128
when it's not and that's also very time consuming
129
but it's one of those things where everyone is now running away from software engineering
130
and unfortunately i'm somebody who likes to take the contrarian trade i've made some good money with
131
that mindset in the past obviously now the risk is a bit bigger
132
because we're talking about careers here
133
but i don't know i could see a world where everyone is now running away from software engineering
134
and coding but then we end up needing more software engineers for building with ai
135
and then there's a shortage also we could be fully replaced i don't know what's gonna happen
136
and i'm honestly done trying to predict this ai thing
137
but personally like i said i like taking the contrarian trade and And I'm now switching career paths to become a nurse, like Antropic suggested.
138
Thank you.
139
oh okay just finished recording the updated what's on my iphone
140
video my throat is hurting a little bit i hope i'm not getting sick
141
but you know this morning i woke up with the
142
you know how it feels right before you get sick anyways
143
for some reason the iphone video has been like the most requested video topic on the channel
144
if you discount today in the live vlogs of course
145
but yeah that's why i had to make it happen now with the iphone 18 pro launch
146
so if you're interested in
147
that definitely go check it out after this one it should
148
be live on the channel by the time this video comes out yeah this is how i balance my work
149
and this youtube stuff like i just record videos on during the weekends
150
so instead of me going out on a friday evening
151
and then being hung over on saturday instead i just do my thing
152
and record a video and uh yeah i might edit it tomorrow then
153
but yeah it's 2 p .m i haven't ate anything so obviously i'm hungry and And usually, during the weekends, after I'm done recording a video,
154
I kind of give myself the pass to eat whatever I want.
155
And I'm not gonna lie, I'm craving a burger.
156
A nice, crispish mash burger.
157
That's what I'm craving.
158
I think we'll go to this local restaurant and see what they got going on.
159
By the way, the battery life on the new phone seems insane.
160
It's 2pm, I woke up at 8pm
161
and I've been using my phone pretty much the entire time
162
because I was going through all the apps and stuff
163
so as you can see five hours of screen time already today
164
which is kind of crazy let's ignore that part
165
but after five hours of screen on time pretty much at
166
max brightness at all times we're at 67 battery life no
167
six seven jokes we gotta leave six seven to summer of 2026 we're not bringing it to the winter
168
and we're for sure not bringing it to 2027
169
but there were one more thing that i noticed immediately
170
when i switched to the 18 pro max is the weight difference compared to the 17 pro max
171
so the 17 pro max weighs 233 grams
172
and the 18 pro max is 249 grams
173
so you probably wouldn't think there's a noticeable difference but
174
when i'm holding this side by side i can clearly clearly see the difference
175
and apparently the duo is gonna weigh like 300 grams so that's gonna be a beefy boy
176
okay then finally let's talk about this camera now this year the 18 pro lineup got the variable aperture lens
177
which samsung did in the 1800s by the way they were way ahead everybody else anyways now
178
that the samsung fanboys are happy basically what this lets you do is control the amount of light
179
that is led into the main sensor
180
and it also gives you a little bit of control over the amount of background blur
181
that your images have
182
and something cool you can do is put the f stop at 4 then
183
when you take a photo of a light source it makes the light bounce a bit.
184
So at night especially you can get creative with this.
185
Also technically the nighttime photography is a bit better this year
186
because the lowest aperture stop is now 1 .48 which previously used to be I think 1 .78 or 1 .8.
187
Regardless it doesn't make a huge difference in the low light photos though the 17 Pro Max was already incredible.
188
Lastly the camera app itself got a big makeover
189
and this is what i meant when i said
190
that this could have been a software update
191
because most of this stuff doesn't need the improved camera
192
and there have been third -party apps out there already
193
that gave you most of these controls
194
but regardless now you can control the shutters speed
195
and all these other things right in the native app
196
which is nice to see and something
197
that actually surprised me a bit are the styles like these look really clean
198
and you can control the amount of film grain you want etc
199
so when you match
200
that with a low shutter speed you can cook some pretty
201
serious photos straight from the native camera app oh yeah one more thing there's now this focus tracking feature
202
so when you're taking a video for example
203
or something you can just double click on a moving object
204
and the focus will be kept on that moving object but yeah
205
that was pretty much all of the new camera features like
206
i don't know what else to say other than it's really good i have no complaints
207
but also i don't think these are must -have updates if that makes any sense
208
We'll see you next time.
209
I'll see you next time.
210
Thank you.
211
Thank you.
212
Let's go.
213
okay good morning it's almost 10 a .m it's a sunday i woke up kind of sick today
214
which is pretty annoying all in all it feels like this
215
entire year has been quite brutal on me of course had
216
the whole moving process had the root canal my driving school
217
which by the way i had a driving test
218
and i failed it basically there was an empty parking lot there was nobody there
219
and i just wasn't paying attention so i drove the wrong way
220
if that makes any sense but this is what it is i'm gonna redo it soon
221
but yeah i know these aren't like everyday things
222
but i just hate it
223
when there are these loose ends going on like i just
224
want to get these things over with also yesterday night i woke up
225
because my lamp fell down from the ceiling for some reason the hook on the ceiling
226
that was kind of centering the lamp just broke now i gotta fix
227
that as well i need to edit uh also sundays are kind of my home reset days
228
so i need to be cleaning up doing my laundry and stuff so we definitely got a lot to do
229
Thank you.
230
We'll see you next time.
231
okay play some music on the home group all right playing some music on the home group
232
Thank you.
233
Let's get started.
234
Thank you.
235
all right things are looking clean again i ended up using
236
the same hooks to hook up the lamp as i did previously i don't know
237
if this classifies as the definition for insanity doing the same
238
thing expecting a different result it did last for a long time last time
239
and i think that's a better way of doing it rather
240
than drilling into the ceiling i don't know we'll see
241
but also i keep seeing people on the internet saying
242
that these are pretty much the same phones
243
and i've been thinking about some of the differences first thing you'll obviously notice
244
when you hold these in hand is that the 18 Pro Max is heavier than the 17 Pro Max.
245
Also if you look closely you can see
246
that the camera bump on the 18 Pro Max is thicker due to the variable aperture lens now.
247
So just keep that in mind.
248
Something that's actually quite cool
249
and is kind of swept under the rug due to the
250
new lens on the 18 Pro Max is the smaller dynamic island.
251
Like when I hold this side by side the difference is enormous
252
and the way Apple has achieved this is
253
that they moved a portion of the face id camera to this top left corner of the phone
254
and then they reduce the amount of pixels in this area so
255
that the camera can still see through the display like that's some proper engineering not none of this software engineering
256
that we're doing but like actual engineering excellence
257
so yeah even though the outcome was just a smaller dynamic island you know it's not the biggest thing
258
but these phones are getting to the point where the smallest details matter
259
And Apple found a way to make the 18 Pro Max a bit better than the 17 Pro Max.
260
But yeah, I don't think that alone is enough of a reason to upgrade.
261
Like, if you're on the 17 Pro Max and you're even watching this video, thinking about upgrading, then that just tells me you're doing really well financially.
262
Because nobody should be upgrading from the 17 Pro Max to the 18 Pro Max.
263
Like, that just doesn't make any sense.
264
But yeah, also on the new Dynamic Island, you can now fit three live activities simultaneously
265
so you can be playing music have a timer on at the same time
266
and something else on top of
267
that not super useful i rarely have even two there
268
so i i don't know of a scenario where i would have three ongoing at the same time
269
but yeah also i've noticed
270
that i've already scratched my phone i've had the phone for less than 48 hours at this point
271
and uh it's already getting scratched up so
272
yeah last year the 17 pro max definitely took a beating like this corner is fully beat up
273
and some of these edges are kind of popping off the display
274
so for example here there's this kind of a sharp point
275
but like i said the color is too beautiful to rock a case
276
so it is what it is for the rest of today
277
i'm just gonna be watching netflix playing some video games maybe hopping on call of duty
278
and yeah just trying to recover from this flu
279
or whatever symptoms i have it's been a long day
280
and it's kind of hard for me to talk right now
281
because my nose is completely blocked
282
but i'm glad we managed to clean up the apartment i always like cleaning the crib on sunday
283
so that i can start the new week with a clean apartment so
284
Thank you.
285
this might be the worst week in the life video on
286
youtube for the past two days i didn't record anything
287
because i was
288
so sick you have to understand i never ever take sick
289
days i had to take one uh the day before yesterday
290
and even yesterday i was feeling terrible
291
so i was just kind of i wasn't fully fully at work
292
but this morning thankfully thankfully i woke up
293
and i didn't have a sore throat anymore i also didn't have a headache anymore
294
so i decided that it's time to get back to the gym
295
because i was done just staying at home all the time
296
i'm not gonna go too hard today i'm just gonna do
297
like an upper body workout i guess with maybe third of the weights i would usually do
298
so a super super light workout let's call it a deload workout
299
but yeah i just needed to get some movement in We'll be right back.
300
Thank you.
301
Thank you.
302
Thank you.
303
Thank you.
304
Thank you.
305
Thank you.
306
Thank you.
307
okay it's 3 50 p .m right now just finishing up work here
308
that faux soup is literally my favorite meal whenever i'm trying to cut
309
or get really shredded it just fills me up so much
310
and it tastes great and i think it's pretty healthy too
311
but something i'd want your opinion on is this is a bit of a crazy idea
312
but i just recently had it now hear me out what
313
if i moved the kitchen from this wall onto this wall in the living room
314
and then what if i added another wall here then this area would legally become a room
315
and i could use it as my office also the apartment
316
would go from a one -bedroom to two -bedroom at that point.
317
I think it would even increase the value of the property.
318
I was talking with some of the people who run the building and stuff.
319
Yeah, you don't need any specific permit for it, but obviously it would still cost probably like 20 to 30 ,000.
320
Just need to keep in mind that I would probably have to get rid of this sofa.
321
What would happen is that I could move the sofa backwards like a couple of feet, one meter, something like this,
322
and obviously then the main living room area would kind of open up
323
so there would be much more space for walking in the middle here obviously the kitchen would be there
324
but then the sofa would be pushed further back towards there
325
and yeah the issue would be with kind of this area
326
whenever you're walking into the living room because the kitchen will be here
327
and then if the sofa has these tall edges then it would make this area feel kind of snug
328
so thinking of doing the renovation then getting a sofa that's
329
a bit lower on this side maybe like a l -shaped sofa
330
so you can lay down on
331
that side of the living room i've also done the measurements
332
the kitchen itself is not as wide as this wall is
333
the kitchen would end somewhere here i think i'm just gonna
334
end up working for the rest of the day i really need to catch up on work
335
because of the sick day
336
which is kind of annoying it is what it is these things happen i might hit the sauna later this afternoon, we'll see.
337
But this is like the most basic, regular week in my life.
338
We're done with work.
339
I had to put this on because so much has been happening.
340
i've just received some pretty big news i wish i could
341
talk about it more here i don't know how to explain it without leaking too much information
342
because if you don't know like i just can't talk about my work
343
that much on youtube i don't know how these amazon software
344
engineers do it where they bring the camera to the office
345
and everything but i can't do that
346
if i could i would you know like
347
that would benefit my channel of course like i know you would love to see it
348
but i'm nothing's done yet so knock on wood everything goes right
349
but yeah that's why i wanted to book the sauna
350
because i just need to think about life for a moment it just it feels weird
351
because i've told this story before but
352
when i first started applying for my first internship i applied to every single internship in my country finland
353
and i only heard back from two companies so i got two interviews
354
and i actually got a job offer from both of those places now i had first accepted another company's offer
355
but then last minute i told them hey i'm not coming i'm going to this other company
356
and from there this freaking snowball has just started it's it's
357
so weird and i keep coming back to this moment
358
when i told the company that i first accepted the offer from
359
that i'm coming there that ended up being kind of a defining moment in my life oh
360
and by the way we're recording on the iphone 18 pro max using the selfie mode
361
that came out i think with the iphone 16 pro lineup where you can hold the phone vertically
362
and still record horizontally or was it with the 17 pro either way this isn't a new feature
363
Let's go.
364
Thank you.
365
so yeah i truly hope that my videos show you
366
that it's possible obviously there's been a ton of luck involved
367
even with just the companies i've picked to work for
368
and i've been in such a fortunate position that i've even had
369
that choice but what i always say is that
370
if you just keep trying then eventually the universe will reward you
371
and just before you start getting some momentum that's
372
when it feels the worst and that's exactly when you want to quit
373
but if you keep showing up every day then it's just a matter of time
374
but yeah to end of the video i wanted to show you how to take these cool light streak photos
375
and the way you do this is by dropping the shutter speed
376
and when you take the photo you kind of have to flick your phone the timing is kind of hard
377
so you might have to try this a few times
378
but once you get it right i think it looks really sick
379
when all of the other stuff is in focus except the light i don't know i think it's pretty cool
380
that we can do this now with just the iphone
381
but yeah these have been my thoughts on the iphone 18 pro max like i said
382
if you're on the 16
383
or 17 pro then do not upgrade like there's no reason to
384
but if you're at that point where your current phone is starting to give up
385
or maybe you want more from the cameras a better battery
386
life etc then you can't really go wrong with the 18 pro
387
and yeah to this day i'm baffled by the battery life
388
like the battery life it's next level anyways that's enough of the glazing
389
if you watch this far then make sure you're subscribed thank you
390

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
