Flossy Carter's iPhone Duo preorder wasn't due until December. An unnamed subscriber sold him a unit at cost, getting the phone onto his review table considerably sooner, with White Shoes the cat alongside him.

That favor is one of the talking points beneath "Apple iPhone Duo - Unboxing and First Impressions". Others include the length of the unboxing, with viewers joking that the eventual full review could take hours, and Samsung users declaring that they are watching anyway. Nearly 2,000 comments arrived in the first day, nine times his usual opening-day conversation, even though the views were not unusual for the channel.

Carter understands the Samsung contingent. "I am a hardcore Samsung Knight," he says before getting into Apple's folding hardware. But his first impressions leave room for both enthusiasm and irritation: he praises the weight, titanium frame and build quality, then immediately notices the missing face unlock.

Rather than stopping at the hardware, he opens Instagram, Gmail and other everyday apps, checking how their layouts and keyboards behave across orientations. Video playback gets tested in tent and flex positions, while bright lights give him a chance to examine reflections on the inner screen.

His verdict is a "major, major, major go," tempered by complaints about the fingerprint unlock's speed and black bars in some apps. The first impressions haven't stayed his last word for long: Carter has already posted a separate follow-up rant after a day with the phone.
