WEBVTT

00:00:00.799 --> 00:00:08.120
so you guys I'm here on the NCIX here we go actually I'll Zoom these

00:00:05.640 --> 00:00:14.080
out and then so I'm here on the NCI homepage I want to do a quick browser

00:00:09.920 --> 00:00:17.279
test between the iPad 2 the Android 3.0

00:00:14.080 --> 00:00:20.439
ASUS Transformer and then the Blackberry

00:00:17.279 --> 00:00:22.160
playbook running their own OS so here we

00:00:20.439 --> 00:00:28.080
go what I'm going to do is I'm loading only Pages here that I have not preached

00:00:26.039 --> 00:00:34.120
okay so bear that in mind guys and I'm going to get cameraman to help me press

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:36.600
all three at the same time so on one 3 2

00:00:34.120 --> 00:00:43.600
1 and we're going to see who manages to load up the forums the fastest and what

00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:45.879
the uh drawing on the screen is like so

00:00:43.600 --> 00:00:50.199
the Playbook is uh pretty strong as well as the iPad 2 now let's just do some

00:00:48.480 --> 00:00:54.520
quick zooming so I'm going to go show you guys one at a time so let's do the

00:00:52.320 --> 00:01:00.840
Android 3.0 platform first let's zoom in on the NC Easter sale let's have a look

00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:03.199
at that side banner up close okay and

00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:07.320
then let's zoom out here okay now let's do the iPad

00:01:04.920 --> 00:01:11.400
2 Easter sale and zoom out and now let's have a

00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:15.479
look at the Playbook so for that one because of the wide screen and small

00:01:13.479 --> 00:01:20.360
screen form factor we actually have to uh scroll down a little bit there we go

00:01:18.040 --> 00:01:25.759
so smoothing is quite quite smooth on the BlackBerry I was very very impressed

00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:30.880
by that aspect of its operation now I have loaded up the hardware conu

00:01:28.360 --> 00:01:35.640
homepage and this is something that I cannot complain about enough when it

00:01:33.159 --> 00:01:38.840
comes to iPad 2 so here's how you switch between tabs on all three devices I

00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:43.560
guess I just showed you how to do that so true tabed browsing here on the uh

00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:47.479
Android 3.0 platform with the tabs up at the top much like Chrome whereas with

00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:51.079
the other two you actually have to access them through an additional button

00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:54.840
here which I I don't mind especially on this one um and then you can just click

00:01:53.320 --> 00:01:58.479
back to your app to get rid of that and then on the iPad it uh brings you to

00:01:57.200 --> 00:02:02.920
like kind of an index of all your different tabs that you have open

00:02:00.360 --> 00:02:06.840
okay so let's try going to the forums which I have not done yet the only page

00:02:05.039 --> 00:02:11.319
I've loaded is the main homepage on Hardware connects Hardware canu is my

00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:15.480
favorite uh tech review site actually since it's all about reviews why don't

00:02:13.160 --> 00:02:19.080
we go ahead and uh load up the reviews section of the website so cameraman if

00:02:18.200 --> 00:02:25.480
you please 3 2 1 okay the Playbook was

00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:30.720
pressed a little bit slower so bear that in mind also I think we pressed it wrong

00:02:28.440 --> 00:02:38.400
all we did was highlight it so let's go back and let's go to articles this time

00:02:35.200 --> 00:02:41.000
instead okay ready uh hold on we wait

00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:47.040
till those pages areow okay ready okay 3 two

00:02:42.599 --> 00:02:49.239
1 here we go okay so Android 3.0 has a

00:02:47.040 --> 00:02:52.800
clear win now any speed Advantage you see on the iPad 2 may be deceptive

00:02:51.640 --> 00:02:57.440
because you can see it doesn't have to load any of the flash content like this

00:02:54.760 --> 00:03:01.280
sniper gaming memory bit this Rampage 3 Black Edition these are flash-based

00:02:58.840 --> 00:03:07.080
banners and and so those are just not being loaded by the iPad 2 so uh let's

00:03:05.040 --> 00:03:11.799
go ahead and uh why don't we just fire up the forums as well as one last one

00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:16.120
last test I know this is not like a proper browser test by any stretch of

00:03:13.720 --> 00:03:22.920
the imagination but it should give you guys at least a little quick rough idea

00:03:18.920 --> 00:03:26.519
of what it's like to navigate to 3 2 1

00:03:22.920 --> 00:03:26.519
web pages on these three different

00:03:27.640 --> 00:03:31.760
platforms I think you pressed it wrong again

00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:39.159
you moved when you pressed it okay okay last one then last one guys I promise

00:03:36.519 --> 00:03:43.159
this time uh we'll go to news which we have not been to

00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:46.239
yet okay this time cameraman's going to try cameraman's going to operate the

00:03:44.599 --> 00:03:51.239
iPad too since that's clearly what he's most comfortable with okay ready 3 2

00:03:53.920 --> 00:04:00.799
1 apparently they're all slow for this

00:03:58.200 --> 00:04:05.159
page and evidence I screwed up on the Playbook that time well whatever you

00:04:03.040 --> 00:04:09.159
guys see how long it takes thank you for checking out our little browser test

00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:12.720
which was clearly very poorly executed don't forget to subscribe to Linus Tech

00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:20.239
tips for more unboxings reviews and other well like I said terribly poorly

00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:20.239
executed videos like this one
