MKBHD’s Duo Review
The piece discusses MKBHD's review framing of the Google Duo as polished in appearance but rough functionally. The author agrees with the criticism about Face ID omission but takes issue with Brownlee's emphasis on third-party app optimization failures, noting that Discord and Google Calendar aren't representative of quality iOS development. The commentary contrasts these apps with well-designed iOS-exclusive apps like Carrot Weather.
