iPads and 3D TV's

So today I went to Best Buy to demo their 3D TV. I also got a demo of an iPad, and a short demo of the newest flip camera and the newest MacBook. Here are my reviews.

1: The Samsung 3D Television.
It was pretty cool 3d, because it's much better than that red/blue 3d. It uses polarization and shutter glasses to give you that 3d effect. It was very realistic, and my brothers and my sister was trying to touch it. Without the glasses, it looks like a messical messy mess.
Good Things: 1. It's realistic. 2. You can see it from many angles. 3. It's a big screen, HD, LCD screen.
Bad Things: 1. You need big bulky glasses. 2. The glasses are battery powered. 3. IT'S FREAKING EXPENSIVE. IT'S LIKE 30000 DOLLARS! Sorry, I kind of got angry.
Final Rating: 8.5/10 Get it if you really want to see your favorite movies in 3d. I think it would be cheaper just too rip a DVD and convert it.


2. The iPad




The iPad is four iPod Touches glued together. Not really. It's more of a big iPod Touch. And it's very cool. I really liked the keyboard option. I've had experience with iPod Touches and iPhones, and their keyboards are tiny. Your typing a 5 page report like your texting someone. But the iPad is big so you can type on a normal sized keyboard! Awesome!
Good Things: 1. Life Sized Keyboard. 2.You can run iPhone and iPod Touch apps on it. 3. Much better for watching movies.
Bad Things: 1. It can do everything an iTouch can do. 2. It's bulky! Are we supposed to carry these in our pockets? 3. AGAIN, IT'S FREAKING EXPENSIVE. IT'S LIKE 600 DOLLARS! Sorry, I need to control my anger.
Final Rating: 7/10 Just get a iTouch. It's $400 less. Get an iPad if you don't have a compute

Mini Reviews!
The Newest Flip.
I only got a minute to play with the Flip, but I've got to tell you, I'm jealous. I've got a really old flip that can only record, delete, and play videos. The new flip can do that, except it has a touchscreen, it has more storage, and it has a wide screen display that slides like a phone that's meant for texting! GOSH!
Good Things: 1. It record HD video. 2. It has a touchscreen. 3. It has more storage than my old flip.
Bad Things: 1. I bet the sliding widescreen thing is easy to break. 2. You will be touching the screen. IT WILL SMUDGE! 3. AGAIN, IT'S FREAKING EXPENSIVE. IT'S LIKE 200 DOLLARS! Wait, that's not to bad. But it's more expensive than my flip.
Final Thoughts: 9/10 Not bad for an camcorder.

The New MacBook
I only played with GarageBand and Photo Booth because I knew one thing. IT WAS GOING TO BE JUST LIKE A OLD MACBOOK! Every one has been the same! The only difference is the weight! Goodness, Steve Jobs! Make on that could cook toast! Or maybe could shoot fireballs! Okay, maybe I'm giving Uncle Steve to much, but still! Make something different besides the weight!
Good Things: 1: It's lighter. 2. It's made by Apple. 3: It has Safari?
Bad Things: 1: Looks like an old MacBook. 2. Feels like an old MacBook. 3. It even smells like an MacBook!
Final Rating: 6/10 Find the cheapest MacBook you can find and buy that!

My next blog will be my 100th blog! And to celebrate, I will be releasing a new series! MOVIE REVIEWS! Episode 1: How To Train Your Dragon! YEAH!
