That was my first thought. Then the video starts with, we got these phones last summer and they are prototypes...well, I don't think I have to hear anything else. Maybe his integrity issues stalled the release of the video. If that's the case, just throw away the review and wait until you can do a production unit.

Something like half the comments on that video are about his facial hair.

He actually said that it was a late prototype, then went on to list the things fairphone said had changed between his unit and the final product.

Then added that nothing he experienced should've been impacted by the slight changes they made.

Linus is many things, but I never saw him "shill" for anything that wasn't clearly labeled as such.
