The XP-38 Vid-Pod is the newest generation of the vid-pod device. Released in 2508 to critical acclaim, sales of the XP-38 were driven primarily by its enhanced array of features. Among them were:

1. a proto-plasma tube array for high-definition holographic content;
2. a standard light percolator for transmissions made under any challenging light conditions;
3. VibraBoss® waveform technology for transmissions made under any challenging sound conditions;
4. sonar-laser scanning for emergency medical diagnoses
5. A legal clause that guarantees the XP-38 Vid-Pod will not be obsolete for at least three cycles
