This way it would still look natural, but the device will appear faster than it really is. I saw similar comments about this on youtube. Obviously since they are a shop selling ereaders they have incentive to make their products seem the best possible.
I seriously doubt they use the same editing technique as The Chipmunks

So did you notice similar things ?
Generally do you think their videos are objective ?
I don't think their videos are objective. All reviews are subjective.

I do think they spend too much time on things most people don't care about (the PDF experience). They have a habit of making the text so big (so as to look better on the camera) that it becomes useless in trying to get an idea of how the device actually looks. In general, I think they are poor reviewers.

But I do not think they use underhanded camera tricks for any reason.
