Your call: hype or real?
Real = it will matter in daily use. Hype = louder than it is. One vote, and it can’t be changed.
Our view and readers’ views are opinions, not statements of fact about a product.
Why it matters
You can ask about several pages at once without copying text. It can also act in tabs, so check what it does.
Worth a look if you often juggle many tabs.
