Why Everything is an Ultrabook!

The world of laptops is sick: If it's not a gaming laptop, the other features matter even more!

This felt like a series of analyses and observations presented around an extended ad

[Tobberd]

MKBHD be like "here's a thought I had on ultrabooks" and proceeds to do an ad for a laptop

[josechomali]

It was such a confusing video,
Mk was like “everything is an ultrabook”
The video was ending and I was still waiting for at least 4 more examples.

Hey Marques, I don't mind that it's an ad, it's 2021, we're happy when out favourite youtubers get sponsors. But I just wish you didn't go on this long winded "thought provoking discussion on ultrabooks" just to ease us into the advert. It just feels disingenuous. You could just talk about the ThinkPad directly. If it's an ad it's an ad. You don't need to Trojan horse it

Came to watch a deep-dive into ultra books, got an ad for Lenovo instead

[theameyasohoni]

This was just a really long ad. You can't expect to put any "general observations" about ultrabooks in a video sponsored by one particular ultrabook.

“Why Everything is an Ultrabook” …. And then proceeds to show us only one laptop. Well …

[RetroGamingNow]

Swing and a miss. You're one of my favorite creators, so I hope this is just a bump in the road.

Here's an alternate title : "Thinkpad X1 Nano Showcase"
That's it. All you had to say. Why hide a showcase behind a genuinely intriguing title?

5% Everything is an ultrabook.
95% Lenovo thinkpad ad.

[tylerpestell]

“Resume from sleep in >3s” … that is a greater than symbol…

[nielsdeckmyn]

What the title should've been:
Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Nano - Why Everything is an Ultrabook!

[xesh]

This feels more like an ad than I would like it to

[Devin]

This entire thing was an ad, with 2 minutes of actual thoughts

[Dlawderek]

Hey, big fan here. This one isn’t it. I don’t think anyone appreciates being tricked into a 9 minute advertisement with more about the Lenovo than about the topic of the video.

[Jeremy.p]

I thought I shouldn't see ads when I'm paying for YouTube premium.

[JarrodsTech]

Me finding out I'm an ultrabook: *interesting* 🤔

[bilaal]

Me: I hate these 30 second YouTube ads
Marques: oh you haven't heard?

[Quizack]

Marques I’ve been watching you since we were literally both kids. You’ve been an inspiration to me, and helped turn tech reviews into their own genre here on YouTube. You *are* tech YouTube. We watch you because we trust you, because you know what you’re talking about, and because you’re one of us. Please don’t let the pushback from us get to you, but please do take into account how we feel. Personally I feel that the title did not indicate that your video would just be an ad for a specific product. I felt that you would be looking at the Ultrabook category as a whole. Instead we got this. It feels like a bait and switch, and it’s unexpected coming from you. Don’t let it bring you down though. ✌️

This video is a sponsored review in everything but name. Personally, I’m fine with companies paying you to do videos about their products, I actually learned a lot about the ThinkPad and I might consider one of I need a PC. But the title of the video needs to indicate what it is (A Look at Lenovo ThinkPad [sponsored by Lenovo]) so I know what I’m clicking on instead of disguising a sponsored review inside of an opinion/thoughts video so you can avoId calling it what it is. Even if you weren’t sponsored, I clicked on this video for a Marques’ thoughts video. If this was any other video, I’d be very confused why you randomly started reviewing/describing a product in an opinion video and think there was an editing mix up, the title needs to match the video topic.
