Hello there you seductively sensual human being you and welcome to a rather monumental episode of textbook weekly. That's right. This week the spur ton army has grown half a million strong over 500 000 of you, beautiful buggers have smashed the Dejesus at that subscribe button. Since I did my first video just over a thousand days ago, all right so um hi, guys uh. This is Chris uh, I'm Chris, and you're watching expert get it yeah uh, and this here is the Motorola motor g7, and we're gonna, oh, and please do uh smash the subscribe button and poke the little thumbs up thingy. That would be great if you want to.
Of course, I don't know, I don't want to pressure you into anything uh, but anyway, this funny little fella here, it's the uh, the mortal g7 uh and for posterity. I captured that precise joyous moment where the subscriber count ticked up to precisely 500 000. Okay guys this is if it's about to happen. Half a million Spartans! Here we come here we go here. We go any second now got a good feeling about this time boom.
Oh, we lost one seriously. I haven't got all day my beer's going to go flat. Oh there, it is there. It is way sucked my chubby half a million subscribers right, yeah, great lovely, lovely, stuff, half a ruddy million, absolutely mental stuff. So again, a massive thank you to everyone.
Who's subscribed and is continuing to watch this random shower every single week, and that's enough of that bollocks anyway, because anyone who has been watching this channel will have noticed, there's been quite a few phone launches going on. So let's crack on expert weekly. So first off this week the mighty poker squeezed out two new ball Guinness blowers, the Poco x3 pro and the Poco f3. That x3 pro is essentially the x3 NFC from last year, but with sexier performance and at 200 quid it's an effing bargain, or if you want some serious game and grunt, you can upgrade to that Poco f3 for just over 300 quid and get yourself a snapdragon 870 handsets that can absolutely piss through any android game out there. No ordinarily, of course, that pocket launch by itself would have been more than enough to keep any selfish, showed gadgets fan pleasantly moist for the rest of the week, but that really was just the tip of the tech iceberg or if you will, the sauce in the sausage sandwich, because we've still got over half a dozen launchers left to go.
All I can say is thank Christ for caffeine. Next up came the OnePlus 9 series, which for now is just a duo, no sign of that OnePlus 9 light that we were all holding out for, of course, as usual, OnePlus had pretty much entirely leaked both of these phones in the fortnight or so before the actual launch event, leaving about as much to the imagination as the average centerfold in big and bouncy magazine, I mean seriously. Those guys are even worse than keeping secrets than my five-year-old and that's saying something, but you know who needs a bit of surprise and intrigue now, both of these shiny wee, hobbies pack in the snapdragon 888 chipsets, backed by shag, loads of ram plus you've got the latest oxygen OS UI and 65 watt wired charging, while the pro gets into some serious willy wave and courtesy of a flipping huge 6.7 inch, quad, HD, plus AMOLED screen. You've got upgraded camera tech, including the telephoto lens water, resistant design and superfast wireless charging, and you can check out full unboxing of both these smartphones, and a comparison between the two, so you can see which one might be best for you if you are tempted right, so that's two down several more to go. You know what coffee it's time to get onto the good stuff on Wednesday it was the turn of realm who finally properly launched the realm 8 pro, which brings the heat to polo, with its respectable specs on a budget.
Furthermore, you've got a poppy AMOLED screen I'll, be at the 60 hertz effort, plus strong battery life.50 watt fast charging 5g support and a respectable 108 megapixel snapper slapped on that, rather controversially, branded ass. My full review is once again live right now, so if you want to see that realm eight pro barrels then have at it right, where were we up to um thursday, which had two more smartphone launchers, one of which was from our great mates Motorola first up on Thursday, though, came this delightful pair from Vito, the x60 pro and the x60 pro plus, and by now I'm not going to lie people. My skull is just a jumble of specs, so many goddamn phones. I think they had some displays of some description and some memory and the pro plus has a fake leather back, which is proper lush. But the big story here is that mass branded camera tech, including some proper gimbals stabilization and an absolute shed load of features and tools to piddle about with and then next up.
Yes came that Motorola, which turned out to be the motor g100, the most powerful g series phone, yet sporting, the same snapdragon, 870 chipsets as that Poco f3 fella. Like honestly, it does seem like a bit of a strange, curious move for the Moto G series, which I always associated with solid everyday specs, for the undemanding user to you know just make sure that apps run smoothly, not to you know, get gaming on ginger and impact on maximum detail levels. Even more unusual is the docking feature of the motor g100 and yes, before your mind, goes to disgustingly filthy places. I'm talking about an actual dock for hooking up to a big screen. So you can see my lovely bald head in super sized glory lush, not that the 6.7-inch IPS screen is particularly compact, of course, and the motor g100 also serves up a 5 000 William battery stock, android, 11 UI and AI driven camera tech with bonus, glow and ring action, looks just like mine after I had that vandalism last night, and you know what I think that was actually all the smartphones that were launched this week. Hello, bloody Luna praised the baby Jesus, and you know what I haven't even begun to touch on all the other tech that launched this week, including small watches, like the amaze fits a T.
rex pro and uh the uh polar ignite 2 bites of clingy smartwatch there. But you know what I think we're done here, because I'm starting to feel the urge to go and wrap my lips around my cos exhaust pipe, which of course means that it's time for the part of the show that is only just about preferable to the exhaust pipe option. It's viewer comments, viewer comments, so lots of people may have spotted me using the OnePlus 9 pro in last week. Sure uh yeah. I keep again.
I've got to keep the phone out of you uh, because you, crafty buggers, are proper eagle-eyed. Aren't you uh so first comment of this week, ?tienne says uh over two minutes before the first, your mum joke you're slipping fella, uh, yeah Christ and I've got like half a video here without doing a single one: either don't worry I'll, try and keep your mum on my lips? More often that's how she likes it. Uh next up Mohammed, says lovely weather here in Barbados, in the Caribbean, okay, seriously, no bad audience. Next up Ali says haha. I feel your pin sitting here in Canada, I'm expecting more snore next weekend, so cheers to that.
Oh cheers indeed, uh sympathies for sure yeah. My parents used to live there back in the day, uh well back in the day, but they decided they couldn't hack it. They actually had to flee the bad weather and go live in Sunderland instead and when people are fleeing your country to go to Sunderland for more sunshine. That's where you know things are uh. Next up the one Joel says salutes from uh: okay, good luck, uh scalene uh in northern Sweden about one and a half meters of snow still hanging around Jesus.
That's like taller than me. I would actually be fully enveloped in snow. If I live there, which, thankfully I don't have next week, lords will melt, and we'll all drown, so yeah shut it. You live in a southern country, ah yeah no fair play, but yeah I mean here in the UK. It's a little chilly uh.
I've definitely got some pokey nipple action on the go might have to go. Stick a hoodie on in a bit or something, but that's about as bad as it. It's got this week, uh TC says greetings from NYC, oh man. I missed that place used to go to so many launches there. Back in the day, thanks corvid uh, looking forward to the p50 and deep dive into harmony, OS yeah, I really am um just yeah just not been loving the half-baked android on recent Huawei smartphones.
It's just not the same, and, of course, how many us is still gonna, be a hard sell, because you know android and iOS have been around for so bloody long that everyone's won one or the other. You know they got their apps they've got their system. They've got all the setup, but you know hopefully, it'll come with some decent app support, and it'll be nice to have a breath of fresh air, something a bit different and next up for had says. I wish YouTube had a super like button like tinder. I would definitely smash it here.
Furthermore, I don't know what that means, because I'm old and not fun uh, but yeah sounds good, thanks. Uh jay bar ford simply says my favorite weekly shower of uh cheers j john Edwards says black coffee with Guinness baileys and whiskey, oh and sambuca. I was kind of onboard there until the sambuca bit that's another one of those drinks that makes me dry heave every time I so much as sniff. It had too many bad experiences on that as a young in, although at least I've never had it quite as bad as the person uh at my old college, who uh had a flame in sambuca forgot to blow it out before lifting it to their face, and they'll singe their eyebrows off. Although I'm not sure, if that's the thing that actually happened or if it's just one of those weird urban legends, uh yeah, it's all, it's all a bit messy up there right now, uh next up Charles Copley, says next time, add some Jameson's or baileys to that coffee uh.
I do like an Irish coffee with a splash of Jameson's um. Oh actually, that should be the other way around. I like a Jameson's with a splash of coffee, and he continues also, if you ever visit, NJ disco, fries gravy on fries, like poutine without the cheese curds um, is that NJ, as in New Jersey, I never realized you guys had gravy on chips over there I mean that's like basically the northern diet uh. You know you can't have dry chips. You've got to have chips with your gravy or curry.
Sauce also uh also acceptable uh. Next up, Rick's tray, says, review and phones, dot, dot, dot such hard work, lol, um yeah, I'm fair play as much as I and one about this job. Let's face it, it's a pretty goddamn, simple job that even a 14-year-old could quite happily do definitely a great way to keep the build collectors out there, though it used to be a lot better. When I used to be able to go to actual events uh with actual free bars, booze that you don't have to pay for nothing tastes sweeter. Next, up, Jedi polar bear says I've been watching techs pert and Fred's dinner.
My adverts are for preparation, age and Davison. There's a Saturday night right there, hi too, I'm here um. The question is, which am I a cause of indigestion, or am I a pin in the ass? The next object? Sorry, if I've completely mauled the pronunciation of that says, here's another fan from Finland, good on you, mate uh! After your fun facts, I don't feel so Finnish anymore. Since I don't drink any coffee. I hate metal, music and I haven't even tried reindeer meat ever damn dude I mean you know.
According to the internet, that's all there is to do in Finland, and we all know all too well that the internet never lies next up. Seth says how do I get a copy of the Akira books, nice and easy uh? There's a website called book depository where I go for uh. Quite a lot of my graphic novels and you know, manga stuff got a great little selection of stuff on there and generally well priced as well, and they do. I can't remember if I mentioned this already deliver worldwide. Sorry, my brain video is turning into jelly today, oh dear um, so anyone else gets nervous by mid Friday morning.
In case Chris has actually drunk himself into oblivion, um, okay, a little behind the scenes secret. Here I usually shoot textbook weekly on a Thursday uh because by Friday morning, I'm usually just a hungover grumpy mess of human puke. Occasionally there are exceptions to that rule. Of course, like last week, where I had to pick a competition winner, but rest assured, most of my heavy drinking is done in the afternoons when my stomach is well padded with a vat of coffee uh. Next up mark Brennan says how do you get into reviewing tech mate I'd love to do it uh? Well, personally, I had an I?t job that I absolutely hated.
So I took a journalism course in my spare time past my acts. Then I managed to get a very poorly paid job at future, publishing where I basically benchmarked about a dozen laptops a day in a converted, broom closet, oh by the way, if you've ever fancied having your own private household sauna, but you can't be bothered with all the logistics of getting one installed. All you need to do is just clear out a cupboard and then put 12 beefy gaming laptops in there and have them running at full pelt that is a one-way ticket to Westville and then long story short. Basically, I ended up working on mobile choice magazine then become. That was where I got into the YouTube, so it took about a decade or so to transition from I?t job like haters into the YouTube shenanigans.
I'm sure, there's much easier, quicker ways of doing it and, to be honest, most YouTubers seem to just basically get a camera of some description, even a smartphone camera, because they're generally quite good. These days stick a mic into it and then just start banging on about whatever you're interested in and next up mark flower says. Can I make a guest appearance on textbook weekly? I don't want to say anything just sit in the background drinking bud var with a tequila chaser like some drunken sidekick, I dude, if you're bringing bud var and tequila you're more than welcome, although the problem is that if I was to get a sidekick, I'd kind of need, a sober sidekick, and they can, you know, take the reins when I'm utterly smashed off my tits uh Randall tech info says where's the merch. I would totally rock a expert t-shirt while using a textbook bottle, opener to open a bottle of spurt and eel, not going to lie spurt and eel does sound. Frigging awesome.
I mean I've, never really even thought about doing my own merch because it all seems a bit wacky to me to be perfectly honest and uh. You know I'd probably go to all the trouble of you know, printing out these tech spurt t-shirts, and then it would literally be like four people would buy one, and it wouldn't just say a text first on it is would actually be a massive jazz and because you know you caught you can't half-ass. These things you've got to go full in you've, got to go balls deep, uh, oh and run the Randall taken 4 continues, uh, also, no love for kick boxer um yeah, no kickboxes perfectly fine after a few wheels. Uh, definitely an enjoyable bit of entertainment, but let's face it. It's no time.
Cop next up Joseph says, is the year 72 worth it despite the lack of 5g, but I haven't personally tested out the a72, um and obviously, you've got the likes of the Poco f3 again, which is just such a considerable bargain with that incredible performance and everything for like a hundred quid less than that ear 72. Alternatively, I'm also still a massive fan of the Redmi Note 10 pro, that's a fantastic blower, pixel Fourier as well. If you, your priority is the camera tech, so hopefully that helps. Hopefully the words are coming out of. My mouth are making some sort of sense anyway, because I'm sorry, it's been a long ass week, um next week.
In fact, let's make this the last one, because I'm running out of time again, uh patrol says I'm a bit more of an exotic than a Finnish fan, uh just showing the love from a Trinidadian fan: oh Trinidad, very nice uh living in Poland. What yeah? I know what you're thinking, what kind of ass leaves the Caribbean to go to a country like Poland? Oh well, it's all because of the l word. Oh, lesbians are fair play a bit. You know I've been to both wassail and Krakow in Poland and gotta say I do absolutely adore it over there, the weather's just as back as the UK, unfortunately, but a good bit of hearty grub and some booze that as cheap as out, which basically immediately gives it a four-star trip advisor written in my books and very friendly punters in the bars as well, who are all too happy to mock my piss-poor pronunciations of the ridiculously named beer like Janette, I believe, was one of them or meat, as I was pronouncing it at the time anyway, Missy Poland, hopefully one day at some point once the world's less crazy but yeah anyway. That's all the comments we've got time for this week.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. So much to everyone who commented in last week's show, please do smash your comments down in the comments box below, and we'll get through as many of those as possible and next week and now for some strange reason, you haven't quite had your fill of meats banging on about tech stuff in a fairly brain-dead fashion. Well, I did make a guest appearance.
This week in tech, radar's noise-canceling podcast, so I believe you can stream it on their YouTube channel. It's also live right now in the likes of apple podcasts, google podcasts, all that good stuff, and that was recorded Wednesday this week. So I still had some of my faculties, but don't expect too much sense to be made and then next week, which is looking delightfully barren compared with this week, thank Christ. So you've got the Xiaomi me 11 ultra launch on a Monday uh so hopefully might be able to bring you some hands on stuff. For that, although I haven't actually had one arrive here at expert towers just yet, so we'll see it's big dell webcast on um Wednesday, the 31st, so they might be launching some new uh sexy laptops and other shenanigans there and that's basically it glory, be I might actually get some sleep anyhow again, a massive thank you to all half a million plus of you.
You are absolutely wonderful, and I love you all very, very dearly indeed uh. Please do put subscribe to that notifications below. If you haven't done already join me. Next week, uh there'll be lots more stuff going on, basically all the overflow. From this week the likes of the Amir's fit T.
rex pro. Don't want to miss that and of course, next Friday at noon join me once again on uh the to the internet, I guess for another expert weekly, hooray, okay, love! You bye, you.
