‘How I Met Your Father’ to premiere on Disney+ Canada on March 9

Disney has confirmed that How I Met Your Father will premiere exclusively on Disney+ Canada on March 9th under the service’s ‘Star’ banner.

The first two episodes of the series will be available on that date, with new episodes rolling out every subsequent Wednesday. It’s worth noting that the series premiered on Hulu on January 18th, continuing a trend of Disney-owned programs like Reservation Dogs and Solar Opposites Season 2 coming to Disney+ Canada weeks after they debuted in the U.S.

A spin-off of the popular sitcom How I Met Your Mother, How I Met Your Father is about a mother named Sophie who, as the title suggests, tells her son the story of how she met his father. To do that, the series follows Sophie and her close-knit group in the past as they navigate love and life.

How I Met Your Father was created by Isaac Aptaker & Elizabeth Berger and stars Hilary Duff, Christopher Lowell, Francia Raisa, Tom Ainsley, Tien Tran and Suraj Sharma.

In Canada, a Disney+ subscription costs $11.99/month or $119.99/year.

Google’s Pixel Watch could be revealed on May 26th

Google has been rumoured to be working on a Pixel smartwatch for years at this point.

Though reports surrounding the project disappeared for a few months, reports recently surfaced that the long-awaited wearable could arrive in 2022. Now, thanks to a rumour from Jon Prosser — a sometimes reliable source of tech leaks — we have a better idea of when we may finally catch an official glimpse of Google’s fabled smartwatch: May 26th.

Prosser says that this is “the first we’ve seen a set date on the device behind the scenes.” While it’s odd for such a specific date to leak this far ahead, it lines up with Google’s annual I/O developer conference, which usually takes place in late May.

Little is known about Google’s Pixel Watch, but it’s expected to feature a circular watch face, minimized bezels and an Apple Watch-like ‘Digital Crown.’ Previously rumoured features include a heart rate sensor and other fitness-focused functionality borrowed from Google-owned Fitbit.

As a long-time Apple Watch user, it would be great to see Google enter the wearable space in a meaningful way. While the Apple Watch remains the best smartwatch around, the tech giant has little incentive to add notable new features to the wearable with each yearly release.

For example, the Apple Watch Series 5 is nearly identical to the Series 6 beyond its more rounded sides. If Google is able to make a splash with its smartwatch, there’s a possibility it could push Apple’s line of wearables forward as well.

Apple’s Beats Fit Pro earbuds available to pre-order in Canada for $249

The Beats Fit Pro, Apple’s latest wireless earbuds under the Beats brand, are set to make their way to Canada on January 28th.

The fitness-focused Fit Pro feature a unique fin design that aims to keep the buds securely in your ears while exercising. The wireless earbuds also offer IPX4 water and dust resistance, allowing them to survive a sweaty workout and light rain easily.

Other features include the H1 chip from Apple’s AirPods line, allowing the Fit Pro to seamlessly connect to other Apple products and use Apple Music’s Spatial Audio head-tracking features. This is a feature the mid-level Beats Studio Buds don’t offer, though the Fit Pro still sit below the Power Beats Pro in Apple’s lineup.

Next week, I’ll have a more in-depth review of the Beats Fit Pro on MobileSyrup, but based on my initial impressions, they seem like a decent pair of wireless earbuds that do everything reasonably well.

You can pre-order the Beats Fit Pro from Apple now $249. The wireless earbuds will be available in ‘Beats Black,’ ‘Beats White,’ ‘Stone Purple’ and ‘Sage Grey on January 28th.

Samsung’s Galaxy S22 Ultra will likely feature less RAM than its predecessor

Leaked European pricing for Samsung’s still-unannounced Galaxy S22 series courtesy of Roland Quandt (via Android Police), indicates that the S22 Ultra will cost as much as its predecessor despite featuring less RAM.

Quandt says that the S22 will start at 849€ (about $1,219.53), the S22+ will cost 1,049€ (approximately $1,506 CAD) and the S22 ultra will cost 1,249€ (roughly $1,794 CAD). For context, at launch in Canada, the S21 started at $1,129 CAD, the s21+ cost $1,469 CAD and the S21 Ultra cost $1,649 CAD.

Though the S21’s launch pricing is slightly less expensive than the converted Canadian pricing for the rumoured S22 series, the cost will likely be in this range (or at least, within $100 or so).

The interesting thing here is that Quandt’s leaked pricing mentions that the S22 Ultra will feature 8GB RAM instead of 12GB RAM like with the base-level S21 Ultra, but at a very similar price point.

Quandt’s tweet indicates that Samsung will still sell a 12GB RAM variant of the S22 Ultra with 256GB and 512GB of storage at 1,349€ (about $1,936 CAD) and 1,449€ (roughly $2,080 CAD), respectively. Last year, Samsung offered 16GB RAM in its 512GB version of the S21 Ultra, which started at $1,889 CAD.

Rumours indicate Samsung’s Galaxy S22 Ultra will feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, up to 12GB of RAM, 512GB of storage and compatibility with its S Pen stylus. The other S22 models reportedly lack the S Pen support, sport an S21-like design with three cameras and feature the same Snapdragon 8 gen 1 chipset as the S22 Ultra.

Samsung is expected to reveal its Galaxy S22 series officially during an upcoming February’ Unpacked’ event.
