I watched the mkbhd video on it.

It was like he was trying to make everything sound cool, even though he knows it's a disappointment.

I'm glad I'm not the only person who felt that vibe from it. I could feel the new tech being reviewed hype, but he wasn't totally into it. When he stood on the trunk I could totally see he was giving his all.

I always have this kind of feeljng about mkbhd. In general he is a tech enthusiast but technically he knows very little IMO.

Often times he goes a bit too much out of his way to justify corpo choices

yep, his videos in terms of actual information are very shallow.

The retro series he did about old cameras and gameboys and stuff was really good though. But new tech is usually shallow i feel.

A tech enthusiast will have all the smart devices in their house.

Somebody that works in tech will shoot the microwave if it beeps when it's not supposed to.

Who cares what mkbhd thinks, he knows nothing about cars

Yeah I had to fast forward through that video, it just sounds like an ad. Wasn't impressed by a long shot.

Oh I fully understand that. I am a huge car enthusiast, I see right through it
