Asrokhel Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Unlike a teardown, these devices can't be put back together. Will It Blend is probably one of our favorite marketing campaigns of all time. The series sees Blendtec founder Tom Dickson blending all manner of items, from smartphones to Big Macs to golf balls. This time around, Blendtec has done a shoot out of sorts, taking three of the top brand 7-inch tablets available today and pitting them against each other in an expensive experiment. Which is going to blend better, the iPad mini, the Nexus 7, or the Kindle Fire HD? Check out the video below and take a look. http://www.tomshardware.com/news/Will-it-blend-Blendtec-iPad-mini-Nexus-7-Kindle-Fire-HD,18998.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glassed Silver Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Idiots with money to waste, I can think of better things to do with it They are advertising their blenders. The videos go viral, people buy their products.... Profit. How is that wasting money? If anything it's wasting good consumer products, which I actually think is rubbish and a sad thing to do... Oh well... It's like these horrifying beheading videos on certain websites - just for geeks... Glassed Silver:mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Montage Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 The money the spent on the tablets could have fed 5 families for weeks in places that have nothing The whole "The money could have been spent..." argument is one of the most pointless and weak things I regularly hear.

primexx Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Surface won't fit in one of those. dude snapped the 7"ers in half, all he has to do is snap the Surface into half or thirds. The magnesium shell should prove quite durable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
