  • I will not buy a single win8 tablet from hp but I will buy a webOs tablet by any manufacturer that gives it a great hardware and a slim look.

  • Old News (but not as old as this video) :

    WebOS is Open Source!

  • WAIT....but only one speaker has sound..

  • I just got a recent update not even a month ago for my Palm Pixi Plus

  • @ j300112211, you took the words out of my mouth, totally agree, I work for a mobile company, I am in the middle of technology news and aware of most operating systems and latest devices and I have never heard of the HP touchpad? Whoever was in charge of this program in HP should e fired

  • I Want Rim To Get Web Is

  • motorola is shit. why did google even buy them

  • @kazora1001 why do you have to make 4 different posts? stop trolling, webos is a great os its the best operating system for tablets and mobile phones period

  • htc is gonna get screwed up like hp coz they have beats in them

  • the audio is screwed up.

  • lol webOS sucks anyway

  • one thing i noticed was to many reviewers were caught up with the ipad to give the credit to webOS, instead of talking about the great easy ui, theyd talk about how the screen or how "THICK" it is like its a... just too many biased reviewers that cant be taken serious because theyre job is to make the competitors of there favorite company look like they arent even worth the time to look at, its also HP's fault, i never once saw a commercial in any channel that i watched. 2 many biased bigots.

  • a new iphone game just invented! throw the iphone in the trash can! lol, i always thought th@ webOS was good & had allot of tech th@ others were slow to catch on to.my biggest problem was th@ they were kindof screwing themselves by having just 1 hardware design on the phone.if they were going 2 have 1 phone it had 2B iconic & quality,detailed...i mean not just black plastic people would want something 2 show off with th@ cool U.I...they should of studied phone design more,thats where they F'd up

  • hey man i went to see jon rettinger in london and i gave him my palm pre he said he would be giving it to somebody in america and i thought seeing as you dont have one (just an empty box) he might give it to you! BIG FAN BTW

  • @ReelFastFilms

    Wow, that's real ironic. =)

  • If you have a tech youtube channel, please message me. Thanks

  • the ipad and ipad 2 fucking sucks dick its so bad

  • The Original Pre just had bad hardware ,Sprint didn't mess that up and Verizon couldn't sell it either .Long live Web OS

  • @MrVeeBlog I've watched noah from the start and he's ALWAYS loved webOS. They don't push just one platform at all. they review whats modern and coming out at the moment. With so many new android phones coming out thats all there is to review. The hardware and company management didn't properly manage webOS, and actually my phone is a Palm Pixi Plus, and its the only smartphone I've ever had, besides the Pre. Noah Always Loved webOS, watch his Pixi and Pre reviews.

  • @VideosMiscellaneous Then he should not have devoted 99 percent of his time gushing over Android. What did you forget Palm had to sell WebOS so we lost Palm. In fact, not only did we lose WebOS thanks to Noah and the rest. We also lost Symbian. That's 3 , Palm, WebOS and Symbian. Thankfully Nokia has a home with Windows Phone 7 and did not want to be yet another handset in a crowd of existing android handset makers.

  • @MrVeeBlog We didn't lose webOS because of people who review can you not get that through your thick skull? WebOs would've recovered from the pre if HP hadn't maimed it.

  • @VideosMiscellaneous The proof is right in your face. WebOS is gone. Symbian? History. Palm? A distant memory.

    On WebOS, NO NEW prospective customers had a chance to know the platform EVER EXISTED if not for the constant and persistent drumbeat from these guys. Not to mention those of you they easily influenced about android and repeat everything you hear from these guys year after year after year.

  • @MrVeeBlog All the phones coming out are android! what else can they review?! are they bashing iOS since a new handset hasn't been out in over a year? no! hp killed webos. not noah, or any other reviewer. they aren't biased in any way, and if they were, it was in webOS's favor. symbian died because it wasn't competitive, and had very few us handsets. just because they review tons of androids doesn't mean they're pushing the platform.

  • the whole time i thought he was gonna cry...

  • i got mine for 100$

  • @ThePE12345 highfive!

  • noooo hp will be like the new ibm

  • Thumbs up for the hippie douche thats in the ad before the video!

  • HP DIDNT KILL WEBOS!! Geez I'm sick of all the wrong facts! They only killed off their phone and tablet lines...not webOS!

  • Spare me Noah. I dig you as a reviewer man but you, Jon, Aaron, Molly Wood and the rest are largely responsible for killing WebOS. The only devices you guys gush over, no matter how shitty the device, if it was running android, it was far and away better than anything else. Even better than the device you used to gush over, IOS.

    You guys killed it and with your help, you will do your best to slow WP7 Mango. I'm sorry man but you have to see your role in killing WebOS.

  • @MrVeeBlog so UNtrue. they didn't do anything, hp did it all themselves. they all liked webos, btw.

  • @VideosMiscellaneous Believe what you want. All these guys ever did for years is praise ONE platform. In doing that it was as if NO OTHER PLATFORM existed. They helped kill WebOS off. I am convinced of it. Now he wants fain like he's moved by it. I am not buying it. To the exclusion of everything else, Noah pushed android and WebOS is finished.  I bet even you own and android phone and have had more than one.

  • AAAAHH!! MY LEFT EAR!!!

  • Noah, "that other company" is called Phonedog.

  • HP should donate that line of business to colleges over the world especially those in developing countries. HP should surprise Apple and MS how one can earn goodwill from his users and future generation.

  • OK, I just bought an HP Touchpad, and I have absolutely no idea what to do with it... Is anyone in the same situation?

  • @YBeshay What do you mean you have no idea?

  • So What Happens To Their AppStore,the OS Updates....

    Do the Just shut that down too

  • Funniest entry ever!

    

  • Wow, Noah really looks hurt lol. 

  • noah looks gay

  • How I felt when they killed KIN.

  • hp isn't getting rid of webos they plan on using it for other applications

  • htc + webOS = awesomeness.

  • no matter how good a platform webos was, why continue it if android and ios piss all over it in sales terms? i can't see any tablet ever rivalling the ipad, as it was the first to market (more or less, regarding modern tablets) it has the brand name and image, something the touchpad and webos couldn't get.

    oh, and any relation to lenny kravitz lol..

  • The intro is so epicc!

  • It's a nice OS. I like the UI better then Android.

    It's too bad HP didn't commit to it more.

  • @DejectedPanda Yeah... The reason why WebOS didn't beat other OS is the customization, apps and such... I just love the OS though... it's sad

  • This sucks, Webos was the next best thing to ios. I know it was sort of buggy and laggy but still way better than android.

  • 41 people still use RAZRs

  • Just put android on the devices left in storage and sell them for 100 dollar.

  • Next......rim

  • Because consumers are blind. Here's an example: My school got a 2 million dollar technology grant. Some of the computers in the school are out of date, the laptops are old, and some stuff is broken. The money should go to getting better computers, right? Nope. They bought fucking 1-1.5 million dollars worth of iPads.

  • @xliver4 How big is your school that they needed to buy that much worth of iPads? Did they buy one for every student, teacher, and staff member?

  • @moiveman1 4,000 people and i think they got a class set for almost every room.

  • @xliver4 trust me they paid way less because apple gave them a special, as long as they get em to use there products while theyre young & have them hooked on there wares is all they care about...& i have a damn hurricane to worry about now,sucks when you live in the edge by williamsburg east river, damn floods.

  • I knew hp was a bad idea, what the hell happen voodoo!?

  • Sad to see webOS have to go out like that. I had a Palm Pre for a year before I switch to the Evo 4G. While I enjoyed using the UI I always felt like I had nothing to do with the phone when I turned it on. The best apps never came over, the OS was slow and upgraded hardware never came.

    There are people now still using Palm Pre's two years later and I still have mine sitting in the closet. Hopefully webOS will be able to make a comeback and gain traction somehow some way.

  • Way to go HP, I think RIM should have bought palm back them, and gotten rid of that grandpa os they have. Can someone tell me where I can get a $99 touchpad seems I'm late for the party

  • Comment removed

  • 1 down 3 to go Android won't be beaten.

  • @GzackOD this is not about android, or ios, no one will benefit from this in a significant way

  • Htc with their own OS could be interesting tbh.

  • It's really sad that WebOS is closing.. I never tried it but I always wanted to.. How ever I have missed Noah speaking his mind. There is no reviewer/reporter I agree more with then him. A sad story but I am quite sure that there is still hope for WebOS. In any case a boy can dream.

  • Funny how the ad for this was a suicide awareness commercial :(

  • This sucks. HP kills innovation every time!

  • Personally, i feel that the first company that is going to put a bid up to by WebOS is more than likely GOOGLE, come on you know everybody now's how much of a HOARDER Google is.

  • HP should have just started selling them for this $99 price point without canceling it. Yea they would lose money, but since this price drop they are sold out everywhere, they could take a hit in income in order to build a large user base.

  • great my HP computer is now dead, man thinking of getting mac. FUCK ME!!!

  • @Deathrepper120 its just web os not every single hp device

  • TouchPad can already be OVERCLOCKED to 1.5GHz. Check your Preware or PreCentral forums. Patches and overclocking polishes up the many hardware issues that has plagued webOS devices when in stock mode.

    WebOS has so much potential and many reviewers who have experienced all OSes have known its brilliance all along. You can't make a judgement based on 10-min demos at the store. It takes weeks to fully understand an OS.

    Like Hitler said, "I like WebOS!"

  • $99 for a TouchPad and already sold out like crazy. HPalm should have catered the lower-end and never go toe to toe vs Apple or Google in the premium segment since Palm never had deep enough pockets for it. Attack developing countries in Asia.

    Consumers are price-sensitive and you can gain alot of traction based on price. $99 for a 16GB tablet is dirt cheap and could make a great spare iPad or Android tablet. HP were just to stupid giving out broken promises to webOS fans.

  • Amazon would do good to get there hands on web os. They have music,movies and books. To me it would be a no brainer.

  • it will make a comeback $99 who wouldn't buy it

  • HTC would probably die if they stopped Android and tried their own OS. Android and iOS are dominating, not a good time to start something new.

  • the russel brand commercials didn't work :(

  • Yes I agree HTC should buy it, they have a large enough share of the market to help bring it back. Plus webOS has many perks such as a great UI and implementation of gestures that could be great for HTC phones. The only thing they should improve is boot times and fixing the bugs

  • Go Get One Now If You Can Find One There Will Be A Port To Androud From The Guys At Xda Watch And See..

  • Dude, how can you talk high-tech, while making a video with monophonic sound in the XXI century? Seriously.

  • FUCK YOU HP! I LOVE WEBOS! :@ :((( - idevice user

  • Face to Palm Pre!

  • $99 for a 16GB TouchPad

    Cheap for a tablet and better alternative than some of buggy Android tablets from more obscure brands.

    HP's hardware held back webOS. Would love to get a Pre 3 unlocked for dirt cheap. Would love to overclock it.

  • why is his left ear sad? someone tell me!

  • personaly i think webos is the best OS out there but none can produce (at least fast enough... cough cough HP) a device with the hardware resources... and in a told other direction tablets?? based of features and compatibility i would give the the ipad a 6/10 but if i had the chose between a ipad, touch pad, playbook, and an android tablet i would pick the ipad casue it WORKS i can turn it on and it does what its suppost to and when it doesnt apple is responsive to the problem.

  • me to noah

  • Web os was always interestingly boring in some ways and good in others but still it wasn't all that good

  • All I heard is, "HP Dropped the Touchpad to $100."

  • This gives me a warm feeling... not a good one by any means...

    Do you.. Do you think RIM will do the same?

  • I'd buy a TouchPad..for..idk maybe 50$

  • What The Fuck HP?!?! ...

  • I am watching this with my touchpad I bought this morning. :)

  • @ReelFastFilms Thanks for supportting Web OS dude. It's allways very sad when a big company kills something so great from a small and innovative comapany.

  • @ReelFastFilms does that mean you wont be gettin anymore updates and stuff for your tablet?

  • push/pull config audio

  • I have the HTC Thunderbolt. I would love for my next phone to also be made by HTC and run WebOS. Dream phone.

  • Comment removed

  • I AM SO UPSET D:

  • hey man.. why don't you delete this video.. cuz there is no need for it. there is no need for you

  • Now I will never us web os. I have only seen it in videos

  • lol hold 2

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • i really like HTC's hardware. 

  • Samsung and HTC may get WebOs phones out after Google-Motorola deal as there were talks about HP licencing webOs

  • @ajans101 Lol come on Bro you know that won't happen. I've got a Focus that I love but they fucked up putting IE6 on here as the browser.

  • Comment removed

  • 2012 noan kravitz buys web os, the fallowing quarter kravitz launches the ark.............

  • I disagree on the tablet thing though ACER and Asus are doing better but the market is over saturated with apple since they are the ones that came out with the working tablets in the first place. i'm hoping like you someone will buy the tablets, desktops and laptops and continue producing them they aren't over all bad pc's just that HP got cheap and tried to cut too many corners to keep costs down and it bit them in the butt in the end. they are giving up too easy though

  • HP cut thier own throats when they bought Compq and instead of making it more like HP they made the HP stuff more like Compaq instead, cheap builds sub par parts etc wrong way to go they should have bought Compaq and killed the line entirely then just kept on with their normal quality of the desktops and other devices. i too had higher hopes for the Web OS platform hoping someone comes out with a hack to allow the tablets to have android installed on them. BTW your audio is jacked up on this.

  • Anyways WebOS Was crappy and gay anyways

  • Hey at least I got my 32GB touchpad for $150.

  • @onishchuk4 same here man! got 2 from OD!

  • there goes my pixi plus running 2.1 :(

  • Now, Developers And Patents Of WebOS, That's Something To Keep Your Eyes Open For.

  • WebOS Joining Sprint Was Not A Bad Move, Joining HP Was. Obviously, HP Killed It. WebOS Was A Good Idea With Poor Implementation. Broken Tech With Broken Promises. 3 Times My Pre Logged Out (On It's Own) And Wiped Everything Off The Pre. That's Worse Then Getting The To Many Open Cards Warning When Nothing Is Open. Anyone Burned By WebOS Will Never Own Another. No Company In Their Right Mind Would Ever Try To Continue Creating New WebOS Devices, So Stop Worrying If HTC Will Pick It Up.

  • I hope the toshiba thrive doesnt flop...i recently bought one and love it!!!! I actually watched this video on it O.o

  • A lack of app is what's hurting a lot of tablets out on the markets

  • MIUI

  • Noah says it's iOS vs. Android (100% true) but then goes on to talk about Microsoft and how they could make a comeback.

    Here's what I say: Windows Phone 7 is next to go! If webOS could die this easily then so can Microsoft's way-late phone OS.

  • @dmcarefuldriver I've seen loads of people with iPhones and Android devices but I've yet to see anyone I know, or even in the wild with a Windows Phone device.

  • @dmcarefuldriver WP7 actually has a good amount of things going for it, don't be hoping for something else to go when it has the hardware and support to keep it around.

  • I'm genuinely upset that I spent $600 dollars on the 32gb model and another $50 on a case and now it's worth pretty much half it's value or less. ...was my first HP purchase. Will be my last, and will tell all my friends to Boycott HP, even joined a Boycott HP page on FB. Worst customer experience I've ever had with any company.

    Lost hundreds of dollars after owning my TP for less than 25 days. HP said they wanted to put it on PC's that it was the new master of the universe...all BS. Dirty ***!

  • I always hated palm phones even when they first came out

  • @SMproductionCEO Then you are dumb, beside it's better than ios.

  • htc rocks

    

  • I really hope webOS becomes an Android UI, like HTC's Sense.

  • fuck this !!!!!!! putting adds before the video started. Fuck Galaxy Tab 10.1 . As for WebOS ... it's a shame, i was really looking forward to the Pre 3 in Europe. I guess it's not really HP's fault, it's tech sites and reviewers, talking 50% of the time about the iPad in the HP TouchPad's reviews

  • This video genuinely made me a bit sad, even though I don't really know anything about WebOS. Noah is usually just such a happy, energetic guy, and I love his videos. It was just depressing seeing him genuinely upset about seeing something he loved slipping down the drain :( I hope something good happens with WebOS. Good "rant" Noah.

  • hey i always wanted the hp envy 17 3d laptop do you think i should still get it ?

    plz someone comment back tell me yes or no and why

  • Web OS would be awesome on any phone.. Nokia should get it lol

  • i hope htc takes it

  • HTC, Please buy MeeGo!!!! Nokia is not doing anything with it :(

  • I'm glad I got the transformer instead!

  • lol, webOs (latinos will get it fo sho)

  • @uliseto lmao,,,, !!!

  • @uliseto Huevos... WebOS. Yup, we do. xD

  • I'm actually also disappointed that they are killing the Touchpad, I was actually thinking of getting one instead of an iPad, to me it was a real competitor to an iPad, and yes I realize it had some issues, but if they resolved those it would easily be one of the best tablets around, the multi-tasking easily is the best out there.. Sad to see it go already..

  • hey you guy know that htc had made a palm smartphone before

  • yeah $100 for touchpad is awesome..

  • @appleloveTK no its 100 dollars off

  • @mwk323 No, check out Futureshop website, its only for $99.99, $300 off..

  • On the bright side, bestbuy and futureshop just put the touchpad on sale for $100 for the 16gb version and $150 for 32gb!

  • @Flightkid9 100 dollars off

  • @mwk323 no it's $100. Currently only the canadian stores have it for $100, but HP told all retailers to put it on sale for $100 tomorrow. Go to bestbuy  DOT ca and search for the touchpad adn you can see it's on for $100 and $150.

  • My left ear is very sad :(

  • @4xThexwin haha why is your left ear sad?

  • @TheTechySpot Only the left speaker was producing audio. Perhaps an editing error.

  • @4xThexwin your speakers are on the wrong sides.

  • @seancrayolabob06

    No, yours are :P

  • @4xThexwin

    I think it is a youtube thing because a top gear video had the same problem.

  • Pass Noah a tissue

  • Yeah...it's kinda how I felt when palm killed off BeOS.

  • I hate HP because of this! (btw my mother-in-law works in HP...)

  • Apple should buy WebOS for sure... Just to just shut down HTC for starters :P

  • Cheer up man :) software with a lot of potential will be bought or something who know's apple could buy it? DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNN :L

  • everyone knows that microsoft sucks at making hardware, and PC software, no im just joking about the software

  • @quimerapt Tell me something I don't know.

  • Best... Intro... EVAR!!!

  • god your going to make me cry

  • Wonder how he feels when his cat dies. I mean why so emo?

  • NO hp has to keep the consumer pc's. Great hardware and products for a reasonable price! NO! i hope they dont.

  • this is why i love techno buffalo.. they really care about technology..

  • Palm was arrogant. They should have sold themselves to Google and added their talent to a platform that people care about, but instead they chose to keep releasing shitty phones that no one bought. Sorry Palm, but you failed.

  • I knew this would happen, WebOS looks amazing but it has to many issues.

  • After checking my headphones and my speakers its the video with the problems in the audio

  • @funman951 I did exactly the same thing :( I thought my headphones were broken!

  • Only left speaker, ugh

  • Palm should just have catered a lower-end market and try to succeed in developing countries. If you want to have a rapid early adoption and gain volume, market in Asia!

    Nokia has done this for years. RIM is doing it right now especially in Indonesia. Asian market is the most populated continent with China and India in the billions.

    LG has made shitty phones with shitty OSes and they are Top 5 in global volume sales just by catering the lower-end. The next victim might be Sony Ericsson.

  • Lol I love how he doesn't even say the name Phonedog. He knows as well as everybody else the failure that company has become.

    Anyway, back on topic. I'm really disappointed by this. I was actually hoping to sometime get a webOS device. Guess not.

  • @abzvinny318 Yeah PhoneDog become is such a failure. Only a measly 114,812 subs. Only a measly 4,251,138 channel views. Wow what a travesty!!!! /sarcasm Ok seriously, they may not be in 200,000+ range of subs like this channel or SoliderKnowsBest but when it comes to most subbed tech bloggers here on YouTube they're in 3rd place right behind them. Way ahead of others like PhoneArena, MobileTechReview, etc. and they reached the 100,000 sub mark after Noah's departure btw. Just saying
