Probably one of the most underrated devices out there. I'm watching NBA League Pass while scrolling X. It looks REALLY good. Not OLED. But like a really nice gigantic 2k to 4k display while I'm disconnecting from the real world. It's a great way to disconnect.

It's time we stop underrating Xbox. Xbox Play anywhere gives me PC access to like half my game library. Xbox cloud streaming is shockingly good, I can play Madden on my Googlebook with like 0 lag while my daughter hogs the Xbox on the TV. Add GeForce Now and my Googlebook can play anything

My favorite Googlebook so far is honestly the Dell XPS. It has the best app experience, it is small, portable, it has a premium build, and a good matte screen that isn't OLED but it still looks amazing. And I love the X Elite processor. Shout out to @Snapdragon for sending this to me. I don't need a haptic trackpad. This feels premium all the way around. The Asus is good but costs $300 more, doesn't have snapdragon. Yes it has OLED and other things, but I just like what you get here for $999

The iPhone Duo has a better screen than it gets credit for on X. Dust resistance is a big deal. The app optimization issue will be fixed in a few weeks, and apps will probably be better optimized on Apple versus Android. Video quality will probably be better on the Duo vs the Z Fold 8. There's a lot of foolishness that will go on to get clicks, but a lot of these things are true. But there are counterpoints to all of these things. The screen may be better than some people are saying, but still, I would argue that the Samsung Z Fold is going to have better contrast. It's going to be better in sunlight. I would also argue it has a better overall design that is lighter and thinner and feels more like the future. I would argue the software is more polished today and it will have more customization in the future too. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra will have the better main camera since it's a 200 megapixel sensor. There are pros and cons to all of the foldables and the iPhone Duo will be a top foldable that's going to match up well with Samsung and Samsung foldables will match up well with the iPhone Duo. X is going to be full of extreme takes, people on both sides, trying to *bring balance* to thing. Even I tend to do that. I HATE the idea of Apple fanboys pretending Apple invented tht foldable. But there's a balance to all of this that we should try to strike. Let's let people enjoy their fun tech and enjoy these foldables and get excited about them. But let's also not be fanboys and realize that there are other foldables that came first and they are better in a lot of ways too.

The talk around Googlebooks is frustrating to me. "It's unusable because Gmail has a web app". Uhhh, is the web app fast? Does it work well? "My Outlook app doesn't work well". Yeah. It's a brand new OS and that app is an Android app. Have you tried using... The web? Is it really that hard for people to understand that Googlebooks are similar to Chromebooks? They are built to run some desktop apps, yes. But they are built also around an OS that is very lightweight running on Google Chrome. It's a mixture of an Android device and a Chromebook. Do I want to see more apps? Yes. But can we stop acting like Googlebooks are unusable? Install a few web apps for regular apps that don't work well. And get to work and enjoy your productivity. The fact that people are demanding to only do work in an app even though it's exactly the same in the web browser is astonishing to me. I understand some legitimate criticisms. I want to be able to delete multiple things on the desktop at the same time. And we need to be able to bring multiple Chrome OS features over that aren't available yet. But it's this type of stuff that frustrates me. People that just don't understand the product and who it's for. They create a false perception about the product. Then they criticize Apple because this isn't like their MacBook or their Windows laptop. A Googlebook is for people who have lightweight needs and they love to use the web or basic apps for doing stuff. And it's meant to give those people a premium experience with premium hardware. Multiple Chrome profiles are coming soon. This operating system will only get better. But even today it's a good OS for people who just need the basics and love Android.

New video dropping Friday at 8 AM CT, where I compare the 3 new Amazon tablets with all of the Android competition. I go beyond the "Nanonite" display to consider how these tablets compare with other Android alternatives. Check out the video when you get a chance!

If you are looking for a case for you Z Fold 8, this is a great case from @thinborne . Which means they probably have great cases for the iPhone Duo too!

I'm excited for people to try out the iPhone Duo. For many Apple users this will be their only taste of a foldable phone and it's going to do many things better than Android foldables on the market. But it has flaws like every foldable. It's heavy. And I love how @MKBHD put it

The iPhone Duo will expose one of the biggest problems we've had with foldables for years. Heavy foldables phones become a pain. A lot of people use foldable phones closed, and after doing that for awhile they ask themselves, why use this heavy brick closed when I could use a traditional phone with a far better camera for way less money? And they go back to a traditional phone. We are talking about a phone that is like 20% heavier than the Z Fold 8. It's something you will barely notice in quick demos. But it is something that is a MASSIVELY big deal. The screen protector is a nice trick to avoid the crease reflections, but the crease is nearly as present as it is on the Z Fold 8. In reality, this is a great foldable, but it's like a Pixel Fold vs a Galaxy Fold 8. The Pixel Fold has water resistance and it is heavier, but it has better durability. There are pros and cons. So the iPhone Duo will have a lot of pros, and I'm very happy that Apple users will finally get a fun foldable, a great foldable. But it will have cons, and they need to be pointed out. So enjoy the foldables. But please, especially creators, educate your audiences.

So I just had to reupload my Tab S12 Plus video because of issues with the intro. No one said anything until someone caught it in my comments a day later. Please show this video some love (don't click in and out, I'm takling about watching!) Link in the comments

My last YouTube video apparently had multiple weird glitches in the first 30 seconds. I almost never watch my videos after editing because I've edited well for so long. But man. Now I'm having to re-upload a video 24 hours later. It's the worst. I guess I made the "one big flaw"

My Dell XPS Googlebook is running an MMO, through GameNative and Steam. Lord of the Rings online running at 1080p at 60fps. GameNative is optimized so well for @Snapdragon. So happy they sent this to me for review! PS: On Intel Googlebooks I couldn't get game native games to run
