     @reichenstein @marcthiele We should found a fan club. He does a really good job at this. He's the only tech reviewer I'm still watching regularly. I'm really no longer interested in the entire genre of tech reviews - or new tech in general. But his videos are far more than just that. His conclusions always contain very interesting thoughts on the future, on the role of tech in our lives, on quality, pricing etc, etc.

     @reichenstein I really like everything about Marques Brownlee / MKBHD except his usual topics, haha. He is a joy to watch and listen to, but I don't follow him because sadly I'm not that interested in gizmo reviews. 😅

     This time though it's not just a device, it's a sign of the times in several ways, and his analysis is spot on. Thanks for sharing it!

     In a youtube desert of shouty people, mega stunts and rapid cuts, a person who sits down, looks you in the eye and makes calm, thoughtful commentary on a thing he is holding in his hand is an oasis.

     @marcthiele I felt old when I saw his first videos, thinking something like: "Yeah, yeah, another YouTuber, everybody has to like him, because everybody likes him, but.: I'm not everyb... oh, he does this really well, the production qual... he's very eloqu... and charmi.... Man is he char... He looks so good and he's so intelli... Dammed, he has style and taste and it shows in the way he spea... I love this man!" What is he doing on YouTube? He's Oprah for geeks. Get him at BT!

     @marcthiele I'm a fan of his attitude, rhetoric, and what he says. He's so charming. I think I'll send him a notebook, and then die of fear and hope that he reviews it. 🤣

     @reichenstein 🥶

     But I agree to what you say. Also am a fan of his unagitated way of reviewing things.

     @reichenstein And once more he is absolutely right, in my opinion. Where does the trend come from to pay for something that is not even beta state? Those things might have happened with Kickstarter stuff in the past, but now with full price hardware. Where does this lead to?
