Matt Wolfe published a hands-on review of Gemini 4 Argon covering:
- Benchmarks & output: demonstrating the million-token output capability
- Ecosystem updates: Antigravity and Gemini App refreshes
- Pricing & access: who gets it and at what cost
- Coding tests: SVGs, game building, and physics simulations, benchmarked against Claude and ChatGPT
- Extras: scheduling and research tasks, Gemini Tasks, plus fun experiments like 3D-printing a Gary Busey meme and teaching a robot Cornhole
His verdict: Google has largely caught up, though the model still gets stuck in spots.
