[anhtransport]

The Fold makes it look 10 times thinker than any other tablet!!!! Its a deal breaker for me!!

[zamraqayum]

I had one of these as my first tablet on launch used it for a week and then returned it and bought a iPad I'm still using that now the only thing I miss is the ir remote and it worked on anything I even used it on my Panasonic hifi worked great plus the screen on the Sony tab is 100x better than the iPad viewing angles are better it's more bright and vibrant and it looks and feels nice not like the iPad no case useless Sontag doesn't need a case it was a great tablet but iOS is more stable th

[SWEViper84]

Aaaa Play some Resident Evil of Final fantasy games on this baby on the buss of train !! cool cool Sony ^^

[KyubiStewie]

Thanks but no thanks, I already have Crash Bandicoot on my PSP. You should be playing more of that Linus, it's rat bastard hard.

[godginrai1]

This thing is a piece of shit Directional touchpad is way to big to play crash bandicoot properly. plus the tablet sux. it now helps in keeping my table in place because I put it under one of the wonky legs.

[milliom23]

@godginrai1 you must be one rich bish if your using you tablet for holding your table

[deadman5236]

[CompletelyWoW]

[phirebox]

[ISGSca]

[GevsComputers]

[RangerParus]

You're too young for Crash, Linus.

[4256Conroy]

"Attractive Brown Box" (Throw It Away)

[xXxCr1ZxXx]

I think they made it like so u can la it on the able and get a good angle view of it.

[alukardFE]

i like it

[chilliedog2918]

Note : get a better camcorder with a better response time with lighting

[BiOHAZ92]

True Black means the screen turns off certain pixels to give a better black colour.

[W0ND3RB0Y1]

@BiOHAZ92 Black is not a color...?! It turns off the gamma radiation and has improved contrast.. thats it.. All screens turns off the diodes when showing black... :)

[BiOHAZ92]

@W0ND3RB0Y1 Thanks for that in-depth description

THE MORE YOU KNOW!

[W0ND3RB0Y1]

@BiOHAZ92 Haha not that deep unless you have an idea of the definition of contrast... And know what gamma is.! :P

But yeah.! basically it turns off the gamma radiation where needed..! Normally a screen uses pretty much the same power to produce a black or white picture, becuz it fires off the gamma beams in ur face no matter if it's black or white..?! O_O

My Sony 40LX900 wich is LCD only turns off the gamma after 5 seconds when "showing" black or no picture at all...

Getting the picture.? ^.^

[fcukugimmeausername]

That thing must be related to the mid 90s Laptops...

[ATERIFA]

the entire time i was watching you play i was screeming to press circle @_@

[narekarmenian]

free playstation 1 games on an 2011 device?

FASCINATING!!

[joseph971]

@narekarmenian Hahahahaha, Friend I expect at least PS2 titles not PS1 in that dual core tablet device lol

[mugabugaYT]

That brown box is just SO SO sexy.

[MarkSegismundo]

Linus Are u a Gay??

[leftspeaker2000]

I cant wait for windows 8 tablets

[darthkevgen]

@leftspeaker2000 Agree :) Windows 8 metro UI looks like shit on a desktop computer but on tablets must be cool

[kenjuma]

@darthkevgen I think it's meant for usage in other stuff where Windows can be used. The normal desktop is also available in Windows 8.

[darthkevgen]

@kenjuma Yep but you have to modifiy register

[kenjuma]

@darthkevgen No, you don't need to do that. You can switch between the two interfaces. Check out the video's of the technical preview (available for everyone) Microsoft gave out a couple of weeks ago.

[darthkevgen]

@kenjuma didn't see that, my bad ^^

[ianskieguzman1]

Wear a Razer hoodie!

[lalaciao]

[iMrKronic]

[sVmboday]

[luisM316]

IPHONE 4S REVIEW GODAMIT!!!

[Whizard72]

@luisM316 Linus takes time out of his day to provide a service for free and you act like he owes you something?! MAJOR THUMBS DOWN.

[Jolinator]

@Whizard72 no ncix is a buisness, this is their advertising, major thumbs down for getting trolled.

[MrPwnstar007]

@luisM316 A fire.. go play in one.

[Tore299]

Install FPse on ASUS Eee Pad Transformer -> Connect PS3 (or similar) controller through bluetooth (-> connect to TV using HDMI) = awesome

Sorry just had to say it :P

[SaurabhJain666]

Nice hairstyle.

[FredEFuego]

These are very slow when I used it last night at a gaming event

[unicyclefinatic]

Weed is legal in canada right? You should hit some shit.

[SindreFr]

play more CRASH BANDICOOT ;D

[SqeakyGoldfish]

Why didn't you get the camera man to tell you the warranty this thing has rather than searching for it? lol

[sbrideau2000]

Cellphone usb connector. Or at least it looks like it is the same usb connector as cellphones.

[youkaidevil]

please do a follow-up on this tablet. im very interested in getting one now and would love to hear your opinions and comparisons after spending some time with it.

[shinjiku01]

NICE VIDEO LINUS BUT THATS A PIECE OF SHIT

[utopea]

Sweet!!!



[RandomTuber782]

That looks a lot like the college hp TouchSmart 9100. From the color and buttons down to the position of the ports and card reader.

[PipWinsForever]

crash bandicoot was the best game on the PS1

[strmapeful]

Minecraft open in the background :)

[sanmjj5889]

you mean ps3 games on it.??

[PingByter]

@rdcxt Actually, you could go up to 2 years in prison for breaking the ToS and the End User license agreement

[PingByter]

@rdcxt And you don't have any good explanation why sony sucks, or apple...

[Theairplaneguy4ever]

@PingByter so ur the cat guy,hello and greetings

[ilyonym21]

@rdcxt android is open software just saying.

[thevenymous]

@rdcxt u mad bro?

[KleptoooGaming]

unsubbing because you never played crash bandicoot

[CezAPacifiC]

i want that game, i lost it, it was my favourite back in the day, if someone has it on pc or emulator, please send it to me!

[mikkelerik]

@CezAPacifiC Just crash bandicoot 1? because i think i got it on my laptop :D it's the best game ever.

[CezAPacifiC]

@mikkelerik send it to me, please bro! it was my favourite back in the day! i want it!!!

[mikkelerik]

@CezAPacifiC haha will do that tomorrow :D will send a PM if i have it on my laptop (too lazy to go downstairs to get it) xD

[Raven1180]

Awesome tablet

[deadouge58]

Nice I can dig

[PSYCHOL699]

nice stuff

[snoopy210190]

Seems nice & responsive, i'd play final fantasy on this. Wonder how long the battery would hold.

[Radu287]

It's firewire

[MrPuri96]

at 05:44 the socket right beside the SD card reader is a microUSB not a firewire socket

[bornwisedistruction]

Lol its magazine shaped for easy toilet use xD

[AwayToSlay]

looks good

[neohideo]

Sony is the best android tablet

[MattCat8]

@neohideo Sony is a company not a tablet

[neohideo]

@MattCat8 I know, but I say just Sony if it is posted under Sony tablet unboxing video

[robertduckyworth]

i LOVE the noise it makes when crash smashes a box

[artiejump]

1:44

that's what she said...

[vROKR]

\m/

[Cod6Media]

If i buy this tablet it is only for crash bandiccot, but that is almost a good enough reason to justify this tablet :P

[kinggornox]

Playstation Certified.... fascinating 

[manyakols9]

@hottieswithspice i do

[PSP1S0]

@hottieswithspice i do...

[ThePhotory]

@hottieswithspice With the security of PS3 go figure

[armaiuran]

pls review any of your workstation pc's

[TheAoiSekai]

Sony > Apple.

[ford460v8]

how much linus?

[untouchable1330]

i wish i have a reset button on my xbox360 :((((((

[untouchable1330]

@untouchable1330 because i fu**ed up everything on it now i cant even go to the dashboard

[dra90n8]

and a good question can u conect a PS3 controller to it without additional software?

[BramRongen]

All tablets should have the remote control option ;)!

[SharkGTX]

I admited ukrainian "МОВА" on the language selection screen))))))

[dra90n8]

UNLOCK THE THING!!!!!! epic

[HyyRisque]

"The blacks are very very deep" - That's what she said!

[Zwank36]

you can get the SDK tools and end what ever process was hung......

[gxryd3r]

microUSB. not firewire.

[Foxiol]

Everybody must see this video...playing with A CONTROLLER in the S Tablet.

/watch?NR=1&v=qx_XvUEUoP4 (and again it is an USB port not firewire).

[TheGanjaxx]

omfg so buying one of these now just for crash bandicoot

[Foxiol]

MICRO USB PORT...IT IS NOT a FIREWIRE close to the SD port.

[werein12345]

YOUVE NEVER FUCKING PLAYED CRASH BANDICOOT :O

[bilalp1]

@werein12345 weird isn't it??

[HyperHorse]

@werein12345

Everyone knows that's a game for girls.

[Extaticus]

@werein12345 Crash Bandicoot was shit.

[ZebbeSebbe]

@werein12345 that was my reaction too! Crash is like the best Ps1 game series to the ps1 :D

[scimmybruz]

you've never played crash bandicoot...

[LoneSniperFox]

OMG Crash Bandicoot!

[BeSweeeet]

Yeah, only an Android tablet would need a dedicated reset button... The fact that this thing plays PS1 games OOTB makes me want one...

[shuffle953]

Now i have to find PiJeyHack's comment -.-

[aneeshwar47]

would have been nice if it also had a mic jack

[aneeshwar47]

nice if it also had a mic jack

[danorambo]

how have u not played crash bandicoot lol

[thunkrd]

@danorambo i've never played it either lol

[danorambo]

@thunkrd haha fair enough, i just find it weird because it's an iconic ps1 game lol

[1111Davo1]

Dear Linus, i will paypal you money to buy a 30cm ruler instead of using an iphone. interested?

[shirifan]

FF7! and FF6!

[sidedead92]

If only there was support for a wireless ps3 controller :D

[erebusparcae]

ffVIII :D

[nicktheodorou9]

how dare you say you havent played crash bandicoot

[halfhappy117]

best tablet by far!

[kolton5543]

It's a good thing that hardware reset switch doesn't weigh. That would make a very expensive tablet.

[Uneedhelp91]

Tiger direct had the Sony rep on Tech TV like a month ago about this tablet...........

[Uneedhelp91]

When did Linus start his career as a abercrombie & fitch model?

[sageosaka]

that port somewhat looked like mini usb, possible to plug a ps3 controler into it to play with your ps games?

[unokilo321]

hate it when the top comment is insulting someone and you have to go searching through 22 pages of comments to find the original post. some day's it's just not worth it.

[kolton5543]

@unokilo321 Me too. I wish youtube kept it the old way where it would put replies to a comment underneath and offset to the right a little bit of the original comment.

[bunnyhallow]

you can have download emulators on this tablet just like the SE xperia play

[avikbelllic911]

Hey! wat GPU i given?

[chronofusion]

so it can play games that were made around 1996...aka 15 years ish ago..WOOOOOOOW. and?

I'd be more impressed if it could play ps2 games..then again. they'd probably jack the price up another 200 bucks easily.

[alexproductions117]

Lol, first game that came to my mind was Crash Bandicoot and Spyro when he mentioned PS1 games, what a coincidence.

Great video and i love all the reviews. Keep up the good work.

[rock962000]

Linus, you look like a hobbit. Lol

[consumev]

lol attractive brown box. now linus isnt racist again

[metyler123]

You're resolution on the tv is off.

[MixerGamingHD]

nice

[vfire27]

at first i thought it said sony $1 tablet

[shampoovta]

sony sells the cord for that plug for like 19$ for thumb drives and stuff.

[AttackOfTheThumbs]

FYI, most tablets have a hard reset key combo, e.g. holding power and volume up/down. Theyre for when you turn on the device, but of the ones I hve tried, holding the power button down long enough, powered it off. BTW, there are apps to control smrt tvs (e.g. samsungs). Also, its some sort of mini usb. Sort of looks like the kind they use on some of their point and click cameras.

[stripesthebird]

it's funny because a tablet is probably more powerful than any current console

[chronofusion]

@stripesthebird I have yet to see ANY tablet that has a triple core 3.0 ghz cpu. have you?  answer is NOPE. nice try though.

[MargaretsLight]

I'm sure that my brother would want to have this and ask for one of these from my mom., :-/

[MrMattissmexy]

holy crap i haven't seen that game in ages...

[superclaw900]

2:31 EPIC FACE ON!!

[WolffeGaming]

PlayStation 1 games only? This whole thing is more powerful than a PS2....

[DSOXBLADE]

So it has a warranty that can be passed on? Can I have it......? :-)

[CallOfSpooge]

that socket next to the SD card reader is a firewire socket

[TalesOfWar]

@CallOfSpooge Why is there a FireWire port on this thing? Or should I say, why isn't it iLink? Which is the SONY version (well, they have to be different right? lol). Seems odd, though welcome I guess, it's faster than USB 2.0.

[TalesOfWar]

@CallOfSpooge Apparently it is a USB port... the spec pages mentions nothing of a FireWire port, but says it has USB. I'm confused, it looks more like FW and USB lol.

[Foxiol]

@CallOfSpooge Wrong. It is a mini USB port.

[shipsimulatorfreak]

@CallOfSpooge thats not a firewire 

[MrPuri96]

@CallOfSpooge the firewire port is more smaller than microUSB la dumb and microUSB always can be found on modern days of smartphones not counting iPhone

[FHCTech]

@CallOfSpooge

No.

[DuudeWhatDoesMineSay]

@CallOfSpooge It's a USB port.

[MattCat8]

@CallOfSpooge Why would it be firewire

[pesca247]

so many boxes

[TheTubersee]

this is way more responsive than my motorola xoom.

[BattlefieldRick]

Thumbs up if you tried to remove the dust from the screen!

[PunctualProletariat]

love you Sony!! beautiful and innovative device ya

[TheQhozt]

I'm so much gonna get this

[1AppleMaker]

Honestly, I think you have better things to compare the power brick and everything else you unbox than comparing it with iPhone. It just doesn't match; a bad puzzle piece.

[TheQhozt]

@1AppleMaker Almost everyone knows how big an iPhone is

[nani1962]

plane outside at 6:03 i was like is that a bomb dropping lol

[deadmanavir]

THE BOXES LINUS ..... THE BOXES

He is not wearing shoes for nothing ...........

[MrMain65]

give penny back her book she have to save her uncle

[greedyfoot]

Looks like a Mini-USB connector.

[ypaul123]

OOOOHHHH SSSIIIGGHHHH

[blolo8]

16gb ssd Yeah right xD

[skater12394]

@coblade14 I'm glad that someone actually knows that just because xbox is green that doesn't mean they use nVidia lmfao! Ps3 does, while the xbox 360 has a custom designed ati gpu which does have higher processing rates than the PS3 but the PS3's gpu can be aided by it's powerful CPU which takes stress of of post processing and gives the ps3 an overall better look
