1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,760 It's hard for me to even understand what this is, let alone explain it to you. 2 00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:09,120 I mean, Microsoft calls it an Xbox, but it's plastered with ROG branding, 3 00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:12,320 you can't play the vast majority of your old Xbox game library, 4 00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:17,840 and even the special sauce, the Xbox full-screen experience that runs over top of Windows, 5 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:22,160 feels like it could have just as easily been an app that runs over top of Windows. 6 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:28,240 But then, hey, I'm a PC gamer, so this kind of collaboration between the Xbox team, 7 00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:33,280 who takes gaming very seriously, and the Windows team, who takes, I don't know, telemetry very 8 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:37,760 seriously, it's basically what I've been asking Microsoft to do for years, and many of you watching 9 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:44,800 probably feel the same way. I mean, imagine it, the perfect fusion of the game library and versatility 10 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:49,920 of Windows gaming, with the optimization and the seamless, more affordable console experience 11 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:58,560 of Xbox gaming in one perfect device. Now, keep imagining that, because unfortunately, 12 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:06,000 the ROG Xbox ally isn't it. That doesn't mean it's bad, it just isn't what we were promised. 13 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:19,280 I'll get into all the benchmarks in a sec, but first, there's something more important 14 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:24,080 than the hardware I'm holding today, and that's the software. In a lot of ways, 15 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:28,080 Windows handheld mode, it's not a whole lot different from the typical Windows experience. 16 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:32,880 You get Windows app compatibility, Windows game compatibility, multitasking, co-pilot, so 17 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:40,000 good or bad, if it's in Windows, you got it. So then, what exactly did they cut out? 18 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,920 I don't know, but they weren't kidding when they said that it is way more efficient. Now, 19 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:50,960 two gigs of memory savings might not sound like that big of a deal, but when our system memory 20 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:57,280 is also acting as our VRAM, it is a very respectable amount to claw back, and it's especially important 21 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:02,400 if you're on an older Windows handheld, or if you're on the non-X version that only has 16 gigs 22 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:07,120 of memory, not to mention the numerous other hardware downgrades that we will get to later. 23 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:12,080 Another nice feature I really appreciate is the shutdown confirmation. Before, if you accidentally 24 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:17,360 held the power button down, maybe you're gaming in a weird position, it would just turn off like a 25 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:24,480 PC. Now, you get this nice little slide down to confirm. It really makes it feel more console-like, 26 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:32,000 and speaking of console-like, hey, we got a quick resume. Well, almost console-like? Also, 27 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:36,800 classic Windows. Don't be too surprised if your device randomly wakes up for a little bit before 28 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,560 going back to sleep. Not enough to drain your battery too much over the course of the day, 29 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:45,600 but if you leave it for a week, it might be dead by the time you come back, kind of like a hamster. 30 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:51,280 These complaints, though, aren't meant to take away from the incredible work that the Xbox team 31 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:57,760 has done here, and the coolest part is that these optimizations are for everyone. If you want to try 32 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:04,400 the Xbox full-screen experience, you can do it right now. No purchase necessary. And I would 33 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:09,840 recommend at least taking it for a test drive. It's pretty slick, and if you've used the Xbox app 34 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:15,840 before, it should feel pretty familiar right out of the gate, except for the extra benefit of having 35 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:20,800 all your games in one location now, regardless of where they were purchased. It kind of feels like 36 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:26,080 a way better version of what Microsoft tried to do with that cool games folder on Windows Vista. 37 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:30,960 It's not perfect. I mean, just because you aren't using the Steam interface doesn't mean that it 38 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:35,600 doesn't need to run. So waiting around for Steam to launch and then dismissing all the annoying 39 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:41,760 little pop-ups the first time you fire up a Steam game, that's a distinctly Windows experience here. 40 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:47,280 But the only other real issue we encountered with the full-screen experience was occasionally the UI 41 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:52,560 would get randomly stuck, and then all of our inputs would action at once. It does seem to happen 42 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:58,000 less once the device has been running for a while, and we expect this to improve over time. But it 43 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:02,240 is something we saw, so it's something we have to mention. Other than that, it is shockingly 44 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:08,240 polished and complete feeling for launch software. Social features, store, cloud gaming, game pass, 45 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:13,440 I mean, thanks to Armory Crate's overlay, you've even got things like built-in performance 46 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:20,720 monitoring. The only major thing missing is Xbox games. Modern ones, no problem. Cross-platform 47 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:25,440 play-anywhere licenses have been common for years now, but if you have a big digital library of 48 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:30,720 older Xbox games, I'm sorry to say that a bunch of them will not run on this device. And there 49 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:36,960 were plenty of comments on Xbox's reveal video asking, okay, well, how is this an Xbox then? 50 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:43,600 And the truthful answer is, I don't know. But, I mean, given that all it is is just a mode for 51 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:49,200 Windows 11 that happens to be launching on these new devices that have Xbox branding on them, 52 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:55,520 maybe that shouldn't be a surprise, except that Microsoft kept shouting, Xbox, Xbox! 53 00:04:56,240 --> 00:05:02,080 Every time the subject of the ROG Ally 2 came up, so this is a completely self-inflicted wound, 54 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:08,800 on the subject of the Ally 2, sorry, excuse me, I mean, the ROG Xbox Ally X. Let's talk about the 55 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:15,600 hardware. This is a generational leap, both in terms of the internals and in terms of the design, 56 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:21,120 with the most obvious change being the ergonomics. Let's start with the most controversial change, 57 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:29,360 the angled screen. I was pretty skeptical about this one, but after using it for a week, 58 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:36,320 I gotta give them credit. In a lot of cases, it's pretty great. If you ride the bus or you're a 59 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:40,400 distracted pedestrian who holds your device up in front of you like this, it is more golden 60 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:46,960 than the K-pop Demon Hunters. But if you lie on the floor or on the couch or you sit with bad posture, 61 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:52,160 you might find yourself wishing that they'd left it flat or maybe even angled it the other way. 62 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:59,600 And we got a couple of other little gripes too. What was this? They went and flipped the menu buttons. 63 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:05,920 That's not awful on its own. New users probably won't notice and returning allies should get used 64 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:12,640 to that sort of thing pretty quickly. But guys, the lower one on the right used to be a dedicated 65 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:19,200 button for armory crate. So I never even noticed how much the placement sucks. Now that it's a 66 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:25,040 button that I need to use regularly, why is this thumbstick in the way of reaching it? 67 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:31,280 On the subject of thumbs and buttons, I'm not too crazy about the face buttons. They do have a nice 68 00:06:31,280 --> 00:06:37,040 long kind of desktop grade travel distance. I just wish they were a little bit less wobbly. 69 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:44,320 To ASUS's credit though, in just about any position, the Ergo grips make this as comfortable, 70 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:49,040 maybe even more comfortable than any handheld we've tested before. And that is in spite of the fact 71 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:53,600 that it is heavier than most of them. Another huge improvement is the thumbsticks. Seriously. 72 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:58,800 Like, I handed this to my son and the first thing he said was, wow, these are way better. 73 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:04,400 And they also managed to squeeze impulse triggers into the X and hall effect triggers into the 74 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:08,800 non-X. The thumbsticks, by the way, are not hall effect, but we did hear a rumor that a certain 75 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:13,120 someone might be making some nice TMR sticks for these bad boys. Oh, speaking of which, 76 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:16,960 time for a quick teardown, don't you think? Since we've got both units here, let's talk about 77 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:23,920 the specs because both the price and the hardware are very different between these two. Both have 78 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:28,320 easily accessed screws, making it dead simple to get apart with my precision screwdriver, 79 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:34,880 lttstore.com, and also maybe some help from my prying tool. Both have easily accessed screws, 80 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:38,720 and if you just get a little pry tool in here, you should be able to remove the backing just 81 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:43,120 like that. Just watch out for this ribbon cable. You don't want to rip that. Now that we've 82 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:48,560 moved the magic to them both open, you can see both feature a full length 80 millimeter m.2 83 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:56,720 NDME slot and, oh, oh, that's really nice. Ample clearance on the underside for a double-sided 84 00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:03,680 m.2 module. Oh, hold on. At least that's definitely true of the X for the non-X. I'm not sure I might 85 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:10,080 have to take this up. Today, nobody is putting, you know, an eight terabyte freaking double-sided 86 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:14,160 SSD in this one because if you're spending that kind of money on your SSD, you should probably 87 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:18,560 just be getting the X. But in the future, if you wanted to put a double-sided SSD in there, 88 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:24,400 I think you could probably get away with it. I would just be very curious to see the logic for 89 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:29,360 why this one needed this grounding strip attached to what appears to be a pretty rudimentary heat 90 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:35,360 spreader and this one didn't because it has a heat spreading sticker. I always enjoy playing spot the 91 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:39,600 differences between cousin devices. Here's the power for the impulse triggers and here's the pad 92 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:45,760 where we don't need it over here. Also, the front chassis is apparently the same other than the color. 93 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:50,400 There's a lot of shared components here. You can see the joystick modules back here are exactly the 94 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:55,120 same as well as some of these little daughter boards. But the biggest difference between the two 95 00:08:55,120 --> 00:09:04,160 is look at the size of the SOC on the X. This thing is loaded for bear with AMD's new flagship 96 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:11,120 handheld CPU, the Ryzen Z2 Extreme. This thing is nuts, you guys. Eight cores, 16 thread CPU, 97 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:18,080 16 cores of our DNA 3.5 graphics. Okay, yes, you'll be paying a lot for it. The starting price is 98 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:27,280 999, so a thousand US dollars for the X. It's paired up with 24 gigs of LPDDR5 memory, a 1TB SSD 99 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:32,800 to start with, a second USB-C port that is Thunderbolt 4 compliant, enabling the use of external 100 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:38,400 GPU enclosures, Thunderbolt Docks, and high-resolution external displays. And the performance difference 101 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:44,960 is very noticeable, even doing mundane things like installing games. One and a half gigabit 102 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:51,840 download speeds? Yes, please. As for the non-X, I don't know what to call this thing other than 103 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:58,160 a massive disappointment. Guys, do not let AMD's bullshit naming scheme fool you here. 104 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:06,880 The Z2A has nothing Z2 about it. This chip is essentially a mini update of the same 105 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:12,160 Ayrith processor that first launched inside the Steam Deck three and a half years ago. I mean, 106 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:17,680 sure, they juiced it with another five watts of power, but guys, this is ZEN2, an RDNA2. 107 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:22,720 Neither of which would be a huge problem if it was priced right, but as it stands, 108 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:27,600 you can get a Steam Deck or even a Steam Deck OLED for less than these things. And then, 109 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:32,320 if you love Windows handheld mode so much, you can just install that on it, making this 110 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:40,000 Xbox a pretty tough sell unless there are some surprises when it comes to performance. Four 111 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:47,520 shadowing. Boom, let's go! Now, to be clear, it does have advantages over the Steam Deck. 112 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:54,160 The 1080p 120Hz IPS type screen is the same one that is featured on the X variant, although it's 113 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:59,760 worth noting it's also the same one that was featured on the original ROG ally two and a half 114 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:05,440 years ago. It's solid, but I wouldn't have minded seeing an upgrade. With that said, the non-X is 115 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:09,680 going to struggle to drive that resolution anyway, especially in more demanding games, 116 00:11:09,680 --> 00:11:18,240 bringing us perfectly to performance where, surprisingly, the extra five watts gives the 117 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:25,840 Xbox ally a roughly 22% advantage over the Steam Deck in Cyberpunk at 720p. Oh, maybe this thing 118 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:33,520 deserves to exist after all. And even at 15 watts, it still manages a 10% uplift in average FPS, 119 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:39,520 likely thanks to its faster memory. Don't get too excited, though. While that percentage sounds 120 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:45,120 pretty big, we're still only talking about three to six FPS more, so it's unlikely that it's going 121 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:52,240 to be the difference between completely unplayable and smooth in demanding titles. What is, though, 122 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:59,440 is upgrading to the Xbox ally X. Would you look at that? Once again, though, the advantage over 123 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:05,440 the last generation ally X is less than we'd like, especially since it's sucking back more juice 124 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:10,480 to get that extra performance. As for the rest of our games, the general trend continues, though it 125 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:17,280 is notable that in Grid Legends, MSI's claw eight AI plus manages to marginally beat the Xbox ally X, 126 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:22,400 and the same goes for Shadow of the Tomb Raider, where it tops in averages but loses in the all 127 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:29,200 important minimum FPS. But come on, most of the devices we're looking at can do 1080p, not 720p, 128 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:35,520 so why are we limiting ourselves? Well, for the same reason that Valve wisely opted for a 129 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:43,280 1280 by 800 pixel panel on the Steam Deck. See, only the Xbox ally X and the MSI claw managed to 130 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:49,840 maintain console-like performance, reaching a consistent 30 FPS gaming experience in Cyberpunk. 131 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:54,320 And for the claw, the story's not all positive. It was the reason that we couldn't include red 132 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:59,040 dead redemption in our results due to the anomalies that made it impossible for us to compare it to 133 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:04,720 our other devices. Keep trying Intel. I do really mean that though. Then in the rest of the games, 134 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:10,320 the story remains much the same. Now that the Xbox ally X can really flex its more powerful GPU, 135 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:16,320 it crushes the old ROG ally X when both of them are running in their maximum power profile. But 136 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:21,520 there's an interesting subplot here that emerges when we turn down the power profiles. We found 137 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:28,320 that running the new ally X in the lower 17 watt power profile yielded about the same performance 138 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:35,040 in Cyberpunk as the old ally X at full power. And that's no one off. We got similar results in 139 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:40,480 Shadow of the Tomb Raider as well. That means that while both the ROG ally X and the ROG Xbox 140 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:46,640 ally X might have the same 80 watt hour capacity battery, you can expect a lot more real world 141 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:53,440 playtime out of the ROG Xbox ally X if you typically game at 1080p without compromising on 142 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:57,920 performance. By the way, can I take a moment to offer some constructive criticism on the naming 143 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:03,440 of these new consoles? Microsoft, you couldn't name your way out of a wet paper bag, but we already 144 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:11,120 knew that. So ASUS, it's you that I'm truly disappointed in. This is the ally X2, and it 145 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:17,520 really would have made everyone's lives better if you had just f***ing called it that. Anywho, 146 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:22,480 bad names aside, the icing on the cake here is that for the sake of compatibility with our 147 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:28,000 benchmarks automation tools, we actually ran all of our tests in Windows desktop mode, 148 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:32,720 not in the Xbox full screen experience. So when you bring one of these home, I would bet money 149 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:38,480 that they run even faster than the results we've shown today. How much faster? That seems like the 150 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,920 sort of thing that the Fox would investigate. So I'm just going to optimistically link to 151 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:46,160 his channel in the video description. He does great videos on handhelds. Coming back to battery life, 152 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:53,120 the MSI claw managed to exceed six hours in our light gaming workload at 720p. That's enough 153 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:59,040 for the lead, but both of the ally Xs are nipping on its heels at five hours in change. A surprise 154 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:04,960 here for me was the Xbox ally non X, which managed almost six hours. Though it is worth noting that 155 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:10,160 you cannot manually adjust SPL or sustained power limits on this thing. So it's actually running 156 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:18,320 at six Watts rather than eight Watts. So that's a little unfair. Let's crank things up now where 157 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:24,800 there are two main takeaways. First, it's clear that the Xbox ally X and the older ROG ally X 158 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:30,400 are going to deliver similar battery life in similar power profiles. It's just a question of 159 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:35,360 how much power you need and whether the ergonomics of the new package are enticing for you. 160 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:40,000 The second thing that's clear is that the Steam Deck smaller battery is holding it back 161 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:45,280 in a big way compared to the Xbox ally. The Steam Deck OLED does have a larger battery, 162 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:50,960 but it wouldn't be enough to close this gap. Also, since we're on the subject, while we will be 163 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:55,840 forever grateful to Valve for their work bringing handheld PCs and especially Linux gaming to the 164 00:15:55,840 --> 00:16:01,920 masses, the deck also charges pretty slowly compared to the new hotness. Our LCD Steam Deck 165 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:07,920 takes three hours to charge from zero to full while our white Xbox charges in just over 90 minutes. 166 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:11,200 At this point, I kind of feel like they should have just called this thing the Steam Deck Extreme. 167 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:16,400 Actually, I'm kidding. We already made the Steam Deck Extreme. Nobody else needs to make one. 168 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:21,360 And they probably won't need to make an extreme version of the Xbox ally either. The non-X hit a 169 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:28,560 maximum of 65 degrees with an average of just 54. And even though the X draws an extra 15 Watts of 170 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:34,480 power and it did peak briefly at 90 degrees in our testing, it hit an average of just 69 degrees, 171 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:40,240 which is pretty nice to see in a handheld like this. Bottom line, is it finally time for me 172 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:46,000 to replace my OG ally that I actually upgraded the battery in rather than pay for the ally X? 173 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:52,800 And I gotta say, when I saw the 720p results, I was underwhelmed. Yeah, the ergonomics, 174 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:59,760 yeah, the convenient Xbox button, but like, whatever. But I game at 1080p, like most people, 175 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:06,080 and the difference in battery life while still providing a great 1080p mobile gaming experience 176 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:10,880 has literally changed the way that I've used my handheld over the last week. I put probably 177 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:16,960 25 hours into the Middle East Chronicles and almost all of that was away from the wall, 178 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:21,760 not stressing about finding a charger. And I'd have the ability to play heavier games that way as 179 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:29,360 well. So yeah, it's not an Xbox. But as a PC gamer who already loves my handheld PC and already 180 00:17:29,360 --> 00:17:35,520 accepts the crappy, non subsidized PC pricing model, this is a clear step up from what we had 181 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:41,040 before. It's not as big of a step up as we would have liked. And like basically everyone else, 182 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:46,880 I was really hoping for a more Xbox like price to accompany the Xbox name. But with that said, 183 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:50,640 based on the recent trajectory of Xbox pricing, maybe that would have been a monkey paw outcome 184 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:55,680 anyway, it is worth noting that we didn't really investigate the Xbox LIX as a streaming device. 185 00:17:56,320 --> 00:18:00,640 Given the importance of Xbox cloud gaming to Microsoft, that probably seems like a huge 186 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:05,520 omission. But I gotta be honest with you guys, I didn't really feel like there was much to say. 187 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:11,120 Yeah, it works fine. Of course it does. But if I wanted cloud gaming, there are cheaper, 188 00:18:11,120 --> 00:18:16,080 lighter devices that are better optimized for that, like the Logitech G Cloud. If I want to game on 189 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:22,560 local hardware though, and I don't want to spend $2,000 or fight with Ark things, this is the play. 190 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:29,200 The Nodex, that's another story entirely. If this thing was price competitive with the LCD 191 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:34,240 Steam Deck, instead of being above the OLED, it'd be a no brainer for anyone who's not married to 192 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:38,880 the Deck's track pads. But it isn't. And regardless of why they're pricing it so high, 193 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:44,560 it's a pretty tough pill to swallow at $600. I mean, they didn't even manage to sweeten the deal 194 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:51,120 by including a one terabyte SSD. If only they'd had the foresight. Now I just wish I had the foresight 195 00:18:51,120 --> 00:18:56,880 to write a better segue to our sponsor.
