Great point, I love my G Class but don’t carry it around often, the Cylon I am not afraid to take it anywhere…well, maybe not swimming 
Love your reviews too Ogre, gotta catch up on some but I am working on reviews of the same product so will wait until after I am done. Thank you

Oh yikes. Hey, if you like I can PM you things I am getting in for review so the reviews don’t post at the same time. I know neither of us do this for profit but I don’t want it to look like we’re competing either as that would misrepresent what we are doing.

Oh no, don’t worry about it bud. I just never read or view reviews on products I am testing, don’t want to cloud my judgement and just give an honest opinion of my experience. I did click on one of your reviews and was watching until I realized it was something I was working on too…lol, I ejected quick but plan on watching it after I post mine. I really do like seeing your video’s, I find them very useful and fun to watch so I try and catch everyone I can

I really appreciate that. They are a hoot to do. No better way to learn about a new device than do review. Forces me to take a good close look.

Absolutely stellar review man. Not only did you not miss a beat (that I can think of), but including all the convenience links…uber-thoughtful, and also gives the readers yet another reason to come back to your reviews! 
I think you’re worrying about a non-issue.
But that’s JMHO. Anyone who’s been reading (watching) product reviews for any real length of time knows that most reviewers are going to receive their ‘new gear to review’ around the same time. With the folks getting stuff direct from manufacturer getting it a touch faster than from vendors (since it’s been shipped twice).
At any rate, it’s the content that’s contained #1, and then style (personality) of the reviewer #2. At least for me… The last thing I give a fuck about is who reviewed what first, or when.
What I care about is:
- how accurate is the info (which is only seen over time)
- the level of detailed info (did they miss anything that I think should be “obvious information to be relayed”)
- did they give it enough time in testing (usually most applicable to products that don’t have any obvious/glaring issues. No one cares how long it’ll last if it’s got issues preventing the desire to purchase it in the first place.
)
Anyways… I wouldn’t sweat it ogre

Got this 2APR18 and its been great until yesterday, got dead pixel lines going across the screen. Sent email to vendor, got denied for being 13 days outside of warranty. Smoant looks promising, they said I need to send QC and warranty stuff, but I hope they help me out.
Anyone have to deal with Smoant directly, or their processes?
That sucks man, sorry to see that. I will reach out to the person I knew who worked for Smoant, he doesn’t anymore but maybe he can direct me to someone you can contact there.

Well, Smoant accepted it, …but they said I had to pay $20 shipping fee 
I spent $60 on the dang device, wtf Smoant?

BS, they should cover that, guessing they don’t have a service place in your country? It has to be returned to China?
