On The Verge 001 full episode: Matias Duarte, Lytro camera, Droid RAZR, Kindle Fire, HTC Titan

[jkes88]

galaxy nexus is pentile and ppl still praise it..

[Veander]

wow razr hate... wtf are you talking about with the screen?

[Stadsport]

@Veander The screen uses a PenTile subpixel arrangement which looks really bad at it's (relatively low) pixel density and resolution.

[jkes88]

Nerds cheering the galaxy nexus xD

[Cromulentable]

I see a lot of Conan in Josh. Especially in his strategically placed 'ahs' directly after a joke.

[ConnerTalksTech]

I guess we could say Engadget took an arrow to the knee?

[kingrob72]

Great show!!

Great to hear Mathias Duarte's thoughts. The dude is a very gifted designer.

[phatboy666666]

Epic intro!

[drale2k]

I like how Josh asks some good questions but i hate it how he interrupts people when they`re answering those questions

[MO3iusONE]

I gotta give Josh props for sometimes asking those hard to ask questions. kudos

[jarredwil]

wow windows phone market share just doubled!!!!!

[techomaniac]

Wow. What a show. Haven't seen such high quality programming in a long time. 

[proudy97]

Ever since Matias joined Google, I've started to like Android. This guy is awesome.

[tantouz]

great show, just like any other great shows that are just starting, give it some time and it will find its identity and mature up to be something unique, josh is entertaining ....

[CrashTest54]

Nice show. Great job.

[MHald23]

Enjoyed the video.. I missed a coffee.cup on the table or just something to fill it out, though..

[GustavNils]

Awesome show! So gonna follow this from now on

[somedudeguytv]

Epic intro! 

[bufbarnaby]

Apple is all about faux wood paneling , faux brushed metal and faux jelly buttons.

Steve Jobs had a fake wood paneled station wagon in the Seventies.

And called it high-style.

[abehammy]

What studio is this show taped in? 

[kr3mliyn]

My new favourite show.

[catchafire221]

Hey Josh, shut the fuck up :)

Glad to see you 3 haven't died.

[sk8rked]

REALLY NICE SHOW

[DeJung85]

I need the song for the theme song? what is it?

[DeJung85]

I need the song for the theme song? what is it?

[Arcadium1177]

Amazingly well made.

[alkhema17]

long and boring, felt asleep after 2 min...

[NathanRandom]

Absolutely agree that the guests need more time to breathe. The show is well-made and definitely has a feel of the chat shows I love to watch, but the problem is that you keep the joke making presenter but swap out the well prepared celebrities or comedians for tech guys. Some jokes fall flat, at least let the guys just talk about what they know, they aren't really all that great at riffing.

[kr3mliyn]

@NathanRandom Check out their podcasts This Is My Next/Vergecast (hell, even the "old skool" Engadget one); they're great at riffing, likely just first show nerves.

[some26887]

Great show guys! Like that it wasn't just tech, it was good entertainment too.

[dymmichael]

Kudos! I love this show!!!!

[biged2k2]

A traditional gift like wood...haha. Josh is hilarious.

[marvbloke]

Great show. Just like the website it proves that geeks can have style.

[chuckyoo]

I like this show!

[dudedominicano]

Wow some things never change, Apple fanbois still at it. I mean it was a great show but what's up with the deuchbag attitude againts windows phone 7? I mean it was pretty obvious on several ocasions.

[qman66]

@dudedominicano i would have sold it if they gave me one. and they want to force u to switch to att lol

[marias19]

Great job guys, top notch!!! ^__^ The dream team lives!!

[vdings99]

otherwise great show...

[vdings99]

Seriously topolsky needs to give his motor mouth a rest and allow duarte to get a few words in.

Interrupting every thought - dude your the host, i want to hear the guest more than you.

[ppsac1]

27:07 the guy holding the iphone is probably asking himself why he bought the iPhone

[jdrevenge]

Wow, this does it. Between this and Engadget's latest ATT articles, The Verge is now my goto.

[Valias]

Engadget who? 

[Supernova1295]

I am really liking the verge a lot nowadays. In a little more time i have no doubt it's going to be bigger than engadget!

[bitsorbytes]

hahahaha they have the google guy on (Matias), but gave away windows phones! Hmmmm wonder who was paying for the give aways ;)

[shawn228642]

Could this be the screen savers of our generation, or am i giving them too much credit?

[jehangir666]

Thank god the dream team is back

[heldpeach]

webSOS

[dekruyter]

Good show.

[shadowbird42333]

YES.

[dillion3384]

you guys have really hit on something here, Love it!

[nickvasilev]

real good job

[TheFedoraKing]

Yes

[Ashyboy1992]

The Verge has just been put on top of my tech news bookmark list, Engadget was previously on top but now that's under the Verge

[000CLos]

bad ass! keep up the good work!

[laforge2001]

Great video.. Really improved from the Engadget show days!

[wiccamoon13]

if there's one thing i learned from this show, it's this: FUCK NEW YORKERS.

[aalaap]

I love it!

[bickertonjames]

"People are really reluctant to talk about tablets...it's a really sensitive subject..." lol

[xPhylem]

I never expect myself watching this. But The Verge made me want for more! Go The Verge!

[thealexlai]

Men in Black at 9:13?

[joelseph98]

Brilliant! subbed and excited to see more!

[kiman2]

The chime at the end of New Thing is from Sonic the Hedgehog when you get a chaos emerald in the bonus stages.

[zer0saves]

Umm this show was amazing. I could swear this was a late night network production.

Sooo much better than the crap on TV. If only this was at least weekly.

[ArticBeatle]

Twit better watch out! The production of this show is amazing!

[augustofretes]

Just 13,199 views? You certainly deserve more!

[mcastro456]

I'm digging the topics but that host is a cornball. He tries way too hard to be funny when he's not. You can tell he's nerdherb.

[virjog95]

Matias felt awkward during the demo.

[kelvincharron]

Fantastic show.

[LittleDebbie11]

Still blown away by that intro.

[kyoshokev]

3 people still work at engadget

[BradDP90]

Great production value.

[Patrick19883009]

nice show ....

[TheCedrickwithnoK]

That dude in the audience with the striped sweater always looks bored to death....why was he there in the first place?

[yanicmb]

I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!!

[MegamaaaanBM]

it seems there are only 999 planed -.-

[TheNamelessSniper]

I give wood to all my family members.

[Duodecillian]

So fucking boss

[Geroxell]

39:10 handshake fail :D

[jthomas009]

Congrats guys. This is the future of late night tv.

[88naka]

SC2 Rocks

[Rapidnadion]

Congratulations on an awesome kickoff episode. This Is My Next commute show!

[ytmmlyt]

Good job. But good lord is Nilay an annoying schmuck. Seriously the guy needs to be off camera.

[psych2l]

lol love you Josh but your interviewing style is kinda diskish

[hjdjdjdj]

Good work, guys, entertaining AND informing!

[MastKalundar]

this is great i really liked the show

[jasmmmm]

This show is fantastic!

[markdj57]

Never heard of the verge before and watched this, a link from the AndroidPolice g+ so yeah, bizarre!

[MADS101586]

14:42 for matias duarte.

[biggerben2010]

Wow. The verge offically killed engadget.

[TheNikolaDjokic]

@biggerben2010 i dont even visit engadget anymore

[AdamTylrrr]

@TheNikolaDjokic me either dude

[nickbrunooo]

This is great.

[DirtballRotten]

Not bad at all

[stennan]

Handing out phones? Who do you think you are, Oprah?

:)

[AxeHomeless]

The Verge looks more professional but I dont like these guys. Not one bit. Engadget, get professional and youll kick verge ass.

[nazlim09]

The Verge kinda creeps me out...don't know why..lol

[FlAWD12]

There's something awesome about a show where the audience applauds an open source announcement.

Will watch again :)

[Jase4yaz]

I like this show :D

[francismontpetit]

Excellent! Congratulations!

[trivett831]

Love this show! Can't wait for the upcoming shows. Love the Verge

[walmyr122]

"Hello humans" Epic quote is epic.

[cusinndzl]

The Verge > Engadget, Tech Crunch, Gizmodo, GDGT, Wired, Slashdot, Boy Genius Report...

[eierer]

The stage is a bit dark, otherwise this is great. Great production, great presentation, great content. Well done.

[golDarkrai]

Who the hell disliked this AWESOME show?

[BugattiNinja]

Can't wait for the Galaxy Nexus. Google and Samsung hurry it up to T-Mobile already!

[BugattiNinja]

Damn, that is the best into ever.

[koralluzzo]

Ok, I <3 THIS SHOW !!!

[katatonic]

Wow sick intro!!

[civictron]

@katatonic that is a pretty bad ass intro song and clip

[haikallptube]

MS did the bug windows phone to boost thier advertising..not many people heard of windows phone..i think its great to see them pushing thier marketing..plus, MS has lots of money to lose.

[LukasS]

Hey guys, I'm still using this Nokia 6300 from like 2006, where do I pick up my brand new HTC Titan?

Oh, an amazing first episode by the way!

[dementedacademic]

this is amazing, definitely national television material!

[Snowblind113]

Room is too dark. Love everything else though.

[jblaster88]

@Snowblind113 to hide the fact that it isn't an elaborate set... its fine.

[superangrybrit]

I would have loved to get a free Titan.  Good show.

[pachinko1972]

You guys are the 3 AMIGOS!!!!!!!!!! YOU guys rocks...please bring TNKGRL to the VERGE..

[dan325013]

Love this.

[CometLol]

Incredible.

The Verge is taking Tech Blogs to a whole new level!

[jroyster]

great show.. although I don't like that nilay.. he has a smarmy attitude

[Alishaikh94]

lol the whole thing was amazing, especially the intro, and the Paul scene.

Very awkward though lol

[Battlemaster00]

will the Verge win7 app have a little technology reviewer in pane to whine about his pixel density on screen?

[digideth]

When are you going to add Video iTunes Subscriptions????

[Nexitus88]

I'm wondering where the HD version is.

[ryN45678]

Sad robot voice adds some thing. I dont know what, but its an integral part of this show.

[ZUNECARDSTV]

Great show!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Radexter]

you guys are so talented. Engadget looks like a blogspot blog compare with theverge.com!!!

[zachyahoo]

I love the bald audience guy with the ginger Van-Dyke. He's so happy to be there.

[LeiZi]

So funny haha



[YSPDJapan]

Oh SHIT that intro was amazing.

OMG

[JHomieFizzle]

The dungeon stuff is so creepy haha. Great show though!

[legr8est1234]

Also, for a designer, Matias wore a butt-fugly shirt.

[legr8est1234]

I never thought fonts were that big of a deal. I know what fonts look good, I can tell why a font looks bad, but to pick at it the way the critics of Roboto have seems overkill. Some people are very obsessed and can't see a bigger picture.

[96515325]

@legr8est1234 You are probably talking about Steve Jobs.

[legr8est1234]

@96515325 Steve definitely saw the bigger picture. It's why he was so good: he had en eye for detail while not missing the bigger picture. The people who obsess over how the lowercase e in this font ends while completely ignoring much more important things about Android are really missing the point.

[96515325]

@legr8est1234 He didn't see the bigger picture. If you read his biography extensively. You will realise he took the ideas of people and tweak them obsessively often missing the picture. Until his engineers and designers argued with him. The big picture was often from his fellow colleagues such as Steve Wozniak, Jonathan Ive and Tony Fadell or even Jon Rubinstein.

[legr8est1234]

@96515325 I'll be getting my hands on that biography soon. Somehow, I find it hard to believe that he managed to lead a company to such success while missing the big picture. I'm fairly certain he had lots of things planned out and he knew what he wanted to do with his products.

It doesn't matter if they were really innovative or not, he was still largely the reason Apple was successful while the companies from which he stole ideas were not.

[fishkid13]

is there anyway you guys could link the song/music in the intro? i cant find it anywhere

[TheVerge]

That's because it's an original piece by our very own Joshua Topolsky.

[fishkid13]

@TheVerge Well would Mr. Topolsky mind posting it?

[JakeCastDotCom]

who is Joshua Topolsky? I watched this show strictly for the size metaphors...

I want the devices corresponding to the following modes of transportation:

-scooter

-moped

-tractor

-tugboat

-747 jumbo jet

-one of the those motorized shopping carts

-the moving floor thing they have at airports that compels me to constantly moonwalk in front of strangers

...no one cares about apple or android, analogous phone to vehicle comparisons are why we are here

[EnzoAmataTV]

@TheVerge It's a variation on the theme music from the Amiga game - Utopia.

[pecuevasb]

@TheVerge You mean "Joshua Ryan".

[RealConty]

The Verge > Engadget

[bqrius]

@RealConty stop causing controversy man... they r both fine

[FedexMikeify]

Wooot!!!

[octavianro2002]

OMG Engadget sucks so badly right now :D Thanks for my new favorite show :)

[halofacci]

no HD? :(

[kedmond]

@halofacci They're working on it. The HTML 5 HD wasn't working on their site, so they posted to YouTube. It'll come.

[chuanchuanLeo]

all male audience :-)

[kedmond]

@chuanchuanLeo Not true. I was there, and noticed several ladies...maybe 15%.

[SebOrSam]

@chuanchuanLeo Not true. I was there, there were a fair amount of women.

[refink33]

YES!

[applefanatic414]

Goodbye Engadget Show...

[FedexMikeify]

Good job!!!!!

[scb1898]

awesome sauce!!

[fishkid13]

fucking well done, josh you're a funny guy

[cjschrisAU]

So awesome guys. Looking forward to getting this as soon as it's finished encoding in 1080p. So awesome to have you back and excited that you're the partner for CES again.
