This felt like a series of analyses and observations presented around an extended ad
There was no analysis. It was just an ad wrapped up in "Hey now most laptops are light and thin since 2012! Here are the specs of the sponsor laptop. Why? No point, but it's written in the contract"
Which is a good thing, right? It's like "If you hadn't paid me to talk about your product, I would've used another. But since you are, might as well talk about it." The laptop itself is ancillary at most
Yea it felt more like an add to me.
Yeah, dude really needs the plugs? Has more subs than god.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels that way.
MKBHD be like "here's a thought I had on ultrabooks" and proceeds to do an ad for a laptop
Tbh the video should be called “thinkpad review/ad and my minor thoughts on ultra books”
Damn, he hasn`t said a single negative word about this thing. The best part: He hasn`t compared the specs of this Laptop to something like the MacBook, because it would get destroyed anyways. BUT LOOK AT THE WEIGT!! A fully plastic Laptop weighs less than a full aluminum one!! OMG!!! BUY IT RIGHT NOW!!!
You dislike the stuff that gets uploaded by my fingers clicking upload? Are you just a h8er boi? I say see you l8er boi. Don't watch the stuff that gets uploaded by my fingers clicking upload anymore. Your dislikes are damaging my good good GOOD reputation. I am a superstar, dear tob
@@LeBros I mean, he literally said at the beginning that its sponsored by Lenovo. Means its an ad, so he has an adread to do. He can't say anything negative, its not a review of the product, just some marketing for it.
I mean, there is a tag on the video literally called "sponsor"
It was such a confusing video,
Mk was like “everything is an ultrabook”
The video was ending and I was still waiting for at least 4 more examples.
“Why Everything is an Ultrabook” …. And then proceeds to show us only one laptop. Well …
This feels more like an ad than I would like it to
Ads are supposed to feel like ads. Why are you surprised?
@@gimmedatthing7829 when you actively think "this is an ad" the ad failed
@@michelbruns The opposite. If an ad bashes the product they're advertising, then it isn't an ad by definition.
@@gimmedatthing7829 ive said nothing about bashing the product
@@gimmedatthing7829 😂
Came to watch a deep-dive into ultra books, got an ad for Lenovo instead
That's on you for having your own agenda.
Beede, go find something to do.
Yeah what the fuck was that
And talking about Windows 10 Pro like it was released yesterday 🙆🏽♂️
True. Even if it was an ad for Lenovo, I don't think it even did justice to how crazy the Lenovo one is by grouping it with literally everything..
“Resume from sleep in >3s” … that is a greater than symbol…
"You can't resume from sleep in less than 3 seconds! YOU HEAR ME?!" :D
what side of the > is the 3 on jackass
@@germ2450 not very clever eh?
The ‘>’ symbol denotes how one object (left side) is greater than another (right side). As such, the way the sentence is set up on the video says ‘Resume from sleep greater than 3s’
For example, ‘5 > 3’ means 5 is greater than 3.
Got it?
What’s the time stamp?
Yeah, the symbol being wrong bugged me.
What the title should've been:
Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Nano - Why Everything is an Ultrabook!
This. This was such an easy fix for this video... if he has just made this the title, and negotiated with Lenovo to offer his own opinions, this would've been an awesome video imo
Hopefully he comes across this and changes it

lol

He said very soon 🥰
Hey Marques, I don't mind that it's an ad, it's 2021, we're happy when out favourite youtubers get sponsors. But I just wish you didn't go on this long winded "thought provoking discussion on ultrabooks" just to ease us into the advert. It just feels disingenuous. You could just talk about the ThinkPad directly. If it's an ad it's an ad. You don't need to Trojan horse it
I still have my first Ultrabook, I picked it up in 2012 at Costco, a HP 4-1043cl. I absolutely love this laptop, thin and light. Backlit keyboard, Core i5 3rd gen, HDMI and webcam. And it's super easy to open the bottom up for upgrading. I replaced the hybrid hard drive with a Samsung SSD 512gb, the RAM I boosted from 6gb to 12gb and I replaced the Wifi for 2.4/5gz. And all on the cheap, none of those components were expensive.
Me: I hate these 30 second RUclips ads
Marques: oh you haven't heard?
😂
Couldn't understand this can someone please explain it to me?
The joke is that this whole video is an ad
@@Davasaurous most review videos are ads in disguise
Bird is the word
So.. this was basically an 8min long ad, with a minute of a "Tech thought that he had".
If a video is sponsored and that company has their product in the video it's an ad. Nothing debatable or sneaky about that.
@@NineteenEightyFive probably not but it didn't feel right, it could have been a simple Lenovo video than trying to talk about ultrabooks using a single laptop
@@shubhamthakur8530
1. The title!!
2. He was not his usual self in this one.. Just plainly saying what was written on the script.
i wouldn't have minded it if the title was "lenovo x1 showcase" or "this laptop is the new standard" or something like what LTT does. i feel cheated
Hey, big fan here. This one isn’t it. I don’t think anyone appreciates being tricked into a 9 minute advertisement with more about the Lenovo than about the topic of the video.
Nailed it
agreed.
Yeah my thoughts exaxtly
100% agree with this
Gwn je bek houweeeee
To be fair I was in a PC World here in the UK for the first time in years and was surprised at the selection of reasonably priced well build Windows 10 ultrabook types available.
This was just a really long ad. You can't expect to put any "general observations" about ultrabooks in a video sponsored by one particular ultrabook.
Exactly. If there was more representation of other products in the category, this could have come off better. But there's very little to hang on to here, and certainly went way too in-depth on one particular product for any video pertaining to be about a general tech category.
@@MindLessWiz this was an ad bro, he still managed to make it a little intersting and informational.
I'm pretty sure he was just reviewing the product, and the ultrabook thing was more besides the point
@@kevinnkrumah8174 Maybe, but he named the video the way he did. If it was a review, then he should name it so...
@@TeamBringIt8 He wanted more people to click on it. More like a clickbait to a sponsored video. This wasn't a review.
Here's an alternate title : "Thinkpad X1 Nano Showcase"
That's it. All you had to say. Why hide a showcase behind a genuinely intriguing title?
Because that title wouldn’t get views
I totally agree, if he only made the title about the laptop like he does phone reviews, none of us would be mad cause the video is about that certain product in the title.
But to have a title of a discussion of sort, and then hearing only a review of a sponsored laptop is bad.
Agreed. Also ditch the intro with the BS lead up about Ultrabooks.
Thumbs up MKBHD! Regardless of this being a sponsored vid, We need more analysis of affordable & effective laptops like this Thinkpad and not the flashy and over costly ones for a change . I've been using a thinkpad yoga for 2 years now and I love it, gets the work done.
When Ultrabook first came out, I always dream of having one. I’m glad the industry is slowly leaning into thin and light, driving quality up with different price points. After all, I need to thanks Steve Jobs for creating MacBook Air.
@Carlos Yung almosg justified but still isn't. There's a lot of better devices
@Carlos Yung M1 MB Air is pretty damn amazing tbh. And it’s gotten cheaper.
“pretty nice backlight to see in the dark”
That was a statement that he was obliged to say in the contract😂
Resume from sleep in ” would be an ultra-slow book
3.1 seconds lol
I noticed this too, which is why I came to the comments 😂
I was just about to comment the same
@@maxapen6047 SAME!
I knew someone must’ve noticed it too.
Very insightful and useful. I know the comments say this is more like an ad, but it was sponsored and as for me, this is exactly what I was looking for and especially from someone like MKHD
I see everyone in the comments complaining about this being an ad but I'm just excited to hear about the Thinkpad tbh
To cite a genius: if everything is an ultrabook, nothing is.

@@LightningSquad no one cares
ok
This one doesn’t feel like MKBHD, but everyone messes up sometimes.
This was a laptop ad, with a different title. It felt sneaky, not something you see usually.
@@mohitjivani645 I think this one hits a nerve for a lot of people since with the ZTE review, he masked a review for a mediocre phone behind a higher level discussion video "Why smartphones copy each other". It largely went under the radar. Now that this is an outright ad, I clicked for a meta level discussion on Ultrabooks, and had some respect that Marques wouldn't sell out and mislead viewers with a title like this just because it's a sponsored video - and then ignore the meta level discussion.
This is an ad not a review
yyyyy
I see nothing wrong with it, he was honest about his intensions in the beginning
Marquees, I’d really love to see what you think about the Framework laptop - A great looking concept with the right to repair front and center.
The X1 is one great, amazing machine. Just got the X1 Gen10 (14”) and man, I’m happy with it.
I'm still using my X1 Carbon gen 4 since 2015. I'm planning to upgrade to X1 Nano in the near future.
“So I had a thought recently” = “So Lenovo sent this laptop and some money” 😃
sOMe moNeY
yeah true but he got a point though so I think it´s okay
What’s wrong with that?
@@bek00l the whole video is an ad in disguise. Not that Im stop following Mkbhd or anything, but yeah. This is an ad.
No, he got sent the laptop for review and it got him to think about ultrabooks. They didn't pay for the review, they sent it for review. Big difference.
Marques be like: Here's my observation on ultrabooks, then reads out all the specifications of a laptop.
MKBHD: Why everything is an Ultrabook
Me: Why everyone has a price
Did he just low-key hit us with an infomercial? 🤔
The “less than” sign is as in >3s boot time 😂
I almost stopped watching 😂
must be his vid editor
My brain stopped when i saw it, had to return 5 seconds before to listen what he said
That’s what you get when you become a famous RUclipsr and quit school, lol
@@ze_kap same! 🤣
More like an advertisement of the laptop rather than talking about ultrabooks 🙃🙃
It literally says sponsored by lenovo and I'm not even an mkbhd fan, but he was honest
@@raymondqiu8202 Sponsored by and an advert are two different things. Sponsorship is paying for a segment not the entire video
@@franklingoodwin No, he always said part of this video is sponsored by on other videos but he said this video is sponsored by lenovo so the entire video is an ad, which he disclose,
@@ramensales3967 I'm not exaggerating. I think you need to look up the dictionary definition of sponsorship. This was beyond sponsorship. This was pretty much an infomercial
Marques I’ve been watching you since we were literally both kids. You’ve been an inspiration to me, and helped turn tech reviews into their own genre here on RUclips. You *are* tech RUclips. We watch you because we trust you, because you know what you’re talking about, and because you’re one of us. Please don’t let the pushback from us get to you, but please do take into account how we feel. Personally I feel that the title did not indicate that your video would just be an ad for a specific product. I felt that you would be looking at the Ultrabook category as a whole. Instead we got this. It feels like a bait and switch, and it’s unexpected coming from you. Don’t let it bring you down though. ✌️
300th lik
Amen
Ultrabooks were a awesome time. I actually use a Acer ultrabook from that era as my garage PC to run my CNC still. One of the really nice things about ultrabooks back then is it really seperated Laptops you actually wanted to use from the Dell Bricks that sucked
Feels like I just watched a full ad.
They got to him.
@@interestingfactsworld24 because most people assumed this was noteworthy content, not advertisement
@@interestingfactsworld24 the "then why watch it" argument is unfitting here.
"Why watch?" you ask? Because it was a clickbait title, that was promising normal content. people thought they will see a normal video, not an ad.
But this was an ad, disguised as a normal video. Very low of marq. I know he is better than this, and hope he recognizes the discontent of his fans.
@@viciouspink6247 I can understand the sentiment but he literally mentioned that it was a sponsored video and he put a sponsor tag in the title, it's not like he was trying to deceive you that it's not an ad

Marques: this is a tech thought video
Me : Looks like an ad video for me 😁😁
Might be but not sure
Chottu is that u?
literally any tech review is an ad.
"a notice or announcement in a public medium promoting a product, service, or event or publicizing a job vacancy."
but this was a paid ad, and scrubs get mad when someone is trying to make money. this is a free site ffs, he literally opens the video by saying its PAID BY LENOVO. you can literally hit X whenever you want you complaining zombie.

Everything is an Ultrabook - If you're doing an Ad for ThinkPad!
but the worst issue with ultrabooks? no upgradibility
This is basically a review of that Thinkpad, with an 'interesting' title.
It's not a review, it's a showcase
*ad, not review.
Not a review. A review cannot be sponsored by the entity making/selling the product, because that would compromise the honesty of the review. And we the audience have no use for dishonest opinions.
this is not review.
It's not a review, it's a sponsored video
I first noticed that title song from black hawk down, good to hear the updated version

The software behind the trackpoint pushed it far beyond the trackpad in the early years when you had to either get used to insane sensitivity or sliding your finger across multiple times to get across the screen, nowadays acceleration is better and some materials are easier to slide across smoothly (my fingers tend to stick and rub instead of slide) so that's why the nipple became so popular, and even though I don't need a laptop currently, I'm so glad it's still around in case I get a job that would make use of a laptop.

One of the best use case for the trackpoint is when you use your laptop laying down. Because it allows you to bring the laptop closer to your face whilst your browse the internet.

As a X1 Carbon 6th Gen user, I doubt I'll ever go to use anything else. My satisfaction with this laptop/ultrabook went to a point where I refuse to work on my wife's HP Elitebook (which is obviously another good ultrabook), so I copy it on a USB stick and work on my one lol. Love these machines.

Also trying to explain the origins of the ultrabook without mentioning how influential the Macbook Air was in basically starting that category.
@ well, that's something I get. A macbook is not a Windows device. We are also not comparing specs of a windows laptop with an macbook, because the macbook would suck. But EVO is literally the new ultrabook standard.

It would be nice to see an MSI review, they have been making some really nice ultra books in my opinion.
This thinkpad name and the red pointer reminds me of my first IBM laptop. This also looks very similar to that laptop but this is very light and powerful.

No, marques, not if they're all going to be these sneaky showcases pretending to be a conversation. Just, please no. I respect what you do to pay the bills, but I gave this one a thumbs down.
He could have just made a simple Lenovo video rather than trying to talk about ultra books using a single laptop
@@Random-fj4iq yeah it was probably because of that infamous car video that he tried this,
Also customary, this wasn't a review just a showcase
Exactly. I appreciate what he has to say in the meta level discussion videos about the industry in general. This ain't it.
1000000% agreed. wtf is this crap??
yeah pay the bills for his third tesla
I came in expecting some thoughtful discussion and left feeling like I got tricked into watching an ad. I didn't expect that from this channel. I would have felt better about this video if it was simply framed as a showcase for that lenovo laptop instead of disguising itself as a wider discussion.
There's literally a hashtag sponsor on it, don't watch it if you don't want to
@@Amar_Indo007 Just because there's a sponsor doesn't mean that millions of people don't have respect for what Marques has to say. When he titles a video "Why everything is an Ultrabook", even if there's a sponsor, we expect a higher level discussion not "Lenovo ThinkPad review: my thoughts". If you seem think both titles mean the same thing then you don't know how to read.
Exactly this, I thought I was the only one who felt this way as Marques does good meta level discussion videos from time to time and this title leads you to believe its one of those. I think I'll go back to Dave2D for laptops and Mrwhosetheboss for smartphones as they each also have a lot to contribute in terms of meta level discussion. That's what separates a great tech channel from ones that mindlessly pump out reviews for individual models like CNET. Even then something like The Verge has an element of discussion despite being a larger company.

This is going to be a chapter to watch in MKBHD’s career. It’s either going to be a learning experience, or the start of a new direction in content. I trust that Marques is smart enough not to alienate his core audience… Or will he “jump the shark”?
When this thing was launched, it was underatted. I said it will be a banger, and here you go...
