1. Business Opportunity in Ruvol

   I have invented a Board Game [still unpublished and not yet out in the market] that I believe is guaranteed to be as challenging and exciting as CHESS. I called it “RUVOL.”

   It is my hope that one day Ruvol may surpass chess as the “Number One Board Game in the World.”

   The weakness of chess is it always starts in fixed positions that the opening moves become “memorizable.” In fact, not a few have so mastered the moves that they can play against their opponents “blindfolded.” It is for this very reason that the great Bobby Fischer introduced his so-called “Fischer Random Chess,” where the starting position of the pieces is “randomized” to make the memorization of openings impracticable. Fortunately, it is also for this reason that I invented Ruvol where “every game” has been calculated to be a challenging one to play.

   HOW IS RUVOL PLAYED and HOW YOU CAN MONETIZE IT?

   I detailed everything in my YouTube video. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcqth0m3-R0

   BIG MONEY POTENTIAL IN RUVOL!

   It is worthwhile to note that the people who play chess will be the same people who will play Ruvol. In my Google search, I learned there are around 800 million chess players in the world. Even just a small percentage of these 800 million is good enough to earn big money from Ruvol either as an ONLINE GAME BUSINESS or as a PHYSICAL PRODUCT DISTRIBUTOR.

   Thanks and God bless!

2. Three years later, finding a decent 16:9 smartphone is nearly impossible.

3. I am laughing with 6.9 inch glaxy s20 ultra

4. LG started the dual wide/ultrawide camera trend on the phones and they be also started the 18:9 aspect ratio – talk about them not doing it innovation ? seriously ?

5. Get pass the math.

6. Ok! This video was posted on 3/10/2017 and I just stumbled across it right now exactly 2 years to the very day after it was posted. It's 3/10/2019 as I type this. So it's been exactly 24 moths to the day since this video has gone up. And the best Galaxy Phone that was available on March 10 of 2017, was the Samsung Galaxy S8. I'm here in the time of the Galaxy S10. And today we now have 19:9 aspect ratios on the Galaxy phones. And Sony even released the Xperia 1. A 21:9 aspect ratio phone.

   I wonder what the odds were of me just so happening to come across this video exactly 2 years to the day after it was posted. Hmm??? 🤔

7. Easier to hold does not mean its the same size. It means it is narrower, therefore smaller in width, that is a FACT. So that argument is stupid, and nobody seems to understand that. I feel like everybody around me are simple minded sheep. So you get a smaller phone wth notification bars harder to reach. And everybody seems to like it. My mind will explode

8. Now everyone is moving to 18:9😂

9. Then the iPhone X came out and f*cked up the ratio game.

10. I love the way it's filmed in 16:9

11. Would you like to read 18.9 books?.

12. Now 1,5 years after this video was released it has happened! Now almost every new phone being released is in 18:9 aspect ratio (except Apple). Will there be 18:9 TV's next?

13. *in 16:9

14. Wont buy an 18:9 phone. Ugly! 5.5 inch phone is already small looking. A fully bezel-less phone with 16:9 will look sexier tbh.

15. Talks about 18:9 aspect ratio. Films in 16:9.

16. 2018 and this is IN now

17. Your video is ok, but to me, istead of a Smartphone 18:9 they can produce a 48:9 with sharp edges, and put it up to their A$$
    This format is so bad that's hilarious, i have a smaller screen in a larger phone, it does not fit in my pocket, is harder to carry it with you, and is less resistant to damage.
    Next dimension my A$$, a phone must be portable

18. "Easy to hold in your hands" Bro, i don't give a shit about that.. No ofenses, but i don't have female hands.
    I will miss 16:9 wide screen so much..

19. Funny how ppl claim LG is trash they actually seem to be one of the innovative android manufacturers they have actually started a lot of trends but when they introduce these features they are called gimmicks

20. You talk to mutch

21. How do I convert a 16:9 video to 2:1 (18:9)?

22. Open mindedness tells me 18:9 for the WIN!

23. Well, this was prescient! Well observed

24. Which mobile can read NTFS driver inbuilt without any 3rd paty apps ?
    & it(mobile) can play smoothly 12bit (hevc) 4k / 1080p NTFS torrent movie file (more than 4gb)

25. I want to know when a 21:9 phone will come out

26. Can't stand the 18:9 aspect ratio phones. I'll take my full screen video and games thank you very much.

27. That turning point where a couple of men at a table makes a decision for the rest of us – and in turn makes you not want to keep up with the technology. tall and skinny phones are silly. Don't be a follower; If something doesn't make sense, Let it be known with the power of your voice and lack of your dollar….

28. Always loved videos by Gary

29. Apple Innovation Meme must die, it looks stupid

30. Actually lol, this is a cost cutting/profit measure.
    Less screen real estate and more $$$ for licensing and other garbatge.

    Nice try LG.

31. 2:1*

32. Hello Garry, I am waiting to see your review of the New Huawei Kirin 970 in full details as well as the comparison between it and the Qualcomm Snapdragonâ„¢ 835 and Apple's A11 Bionic

33. 18:9 is bullshit. if I compare the screen real estate of a 2013 note 3 5.7" vs a 2017 S8 5.8" the note 3 will always have the advantage, even if you zoom in with the S8 to 16:9 you are now cutting out detail at the cost of adding 0.1".

34. 17:9 is better

35. im guessing that because the big guns like samsung and LG have already started using it, im pretty sure it will probably end up becoming the norm soon enough. smaller companies always try to replicate at least some of the 'new' tech used by the big guns.
    if it were a smaller company trying out 18:9 first, say for example xiaomi trying it out, many would probably call it a gimmick and just brush it off. but because it is samsung trying it out, it is an outstanding innovation

36. Fun fact: If the G6 was 16:9 instead of 18:9, the screen would be > exactly < the same size as the LG G2. Pillarboxed 16:9 content on the G6 is 5.2"

37. well, the "next dimension" was actually long time ago. LG has been a purveyor of elongated screen (BL40, GW990) but neither made an impact in mobile phone realm so I don't think G6 would either too. it's time to eliminate the top and side bezel like what LG did in Japan as a mainstream brand offering such feature before the Chinese brands take over.

38. bad video. Where's everyone? why should him? we need to see how do the phone look,not the who's speaking..
