@ClearlyNotCyle it's something I'm thinking about, but I do have to say, our team, especially the reviews team, is very small and very busy. our masthead is a lot smaller than many people realize and folks are very focused on their beats and assignments. — PolitiTweet.org

…as a consumer would experience. pulling a phone out of a drawer six months later and using it for a week to see if it “holds up” isn’t exactly the same as punishing it every day for that time period. — PolitiTweet.org

i do not have the answer to this q — it’s a very tough thing to solve, as so many devices come out & there are only so many hours in the day. not only that, reviewers have to switch devices to keep up, it’s rare that they can use the same phone for 6 months or a year straight… — PolitiTweet.org

(far from the first one to say this, but we as an industry of tech reviewers can do a much better job seeing if products live up to their claims months/years later, as a typical customer would experience) — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@alex my theory: a product manager was given a KPI of “develop something Verizon can bill against” and came up with this theory that people want to use a smart display where there is no wifi and would therefore need to pay for a line of service on it. — PolitiTweet.org
