I find it strange that this is presented as a "dud", on the one hand, but on the other hand he places it somewhere in the middle of the pack with respect to the competition, and concludes that he "wants to buy one".
- abrookewood 3y agoI think it was described as a dud in the context of what was (over)promised - i.e. Claiming it would be the best thing ever, when it's just OK.

- alphabettsy 3y ago“Dud” means an explosive that fails to detonate. Overhyped and fails to deliver seems appropriate. Idk.
- epgui 3y agoI mean, wouldn't that judgment be very subjective? I can easily imagine many people thinking that it is the best truck out there. I don't think it's reasonable to expect that everyone will agree.

I knew it was a nice phone, but I was also 100% sure early on that it was going to be a huge dud. Maybe the author feels like that about CyberTruck?
