You think wrong. "Without" = "Does not have".
As soon as I read the words, "has a more premium feel", I knew this review had been written by a mouth-breathing marketing moron. WTF is that even supposed to be, other than words strung together in attempt to make idiots feel smug about their cluelessness?

My personal favourite is sites that get your screen resolution and assume your browser window has the same dimensions.
My second favourite is sites that try to force every link to open in a new window. (Yes, 90+% of Chinese websites, I'm looking at you. WTF is with that, anyway?)
We'll always have postcards.
I'm thinking the whole lot of yas just got trolled.
The Tao is like a glob pattern: used but never used up. It is like the extern void: filled with infinite possibilities.
