I never listen to what they guy says. He's more wrong than he is right.
Yeah it's amazing how he still maintains his air of smug arrogance given how often he guesses wrong. Total muppet.

a lot of the so called 'professional' youtubers are complete muppets. In reality, they haven't got a clue.
There is too much content out there and everyone needs to compete. Everyone's going to click the video that says they know the release date.
Couldn't agree with your post more

What really annoys me is when they praise a particular product when you know damn well it's full of bugs
I recall an MKBHD video once, I don't remember the exact wording or numbers but for example. He gave the iPhone 11 battery a A+ with 5 hours screen on time. He gave the Pixel 4 a B- battery with 7 hours screen on time.

I've unsubscribed from the likes of mkbhd and Linus, it's all just sponsored crap.

Tech Spurt is who I watch for phone reviews. He's very funny as well.

I don't watch linus, but I totally disagree about mkbhd
And a good source of information on the lower-priced phones which are completely neglected by the bigger YouTubers

MKBHD is just as bad as the others. He says a product is awesome, when it damn well isn't.
I'm not necessarily disagreeing, but I can't recall any specific examples of this. Which review caught your attention?

It might have been the jelly screen oneplus? although there have been a few. It's not just him though, it's widespread. You need to take what they say with a pinch of salt.
In fact, I'm sure I purchased a phone he said was amazing when it was universally hated
Can't remember what it was now, I've been through that many phones over the years.He's good. So is the tech chap and Dave2d. Mr Mobile.
Anyhow do your own thing. I'll purchase this and if its not my cuppa I'll send it right back. Just like I did with the S21U.
I've got an S21U on order. What was wrong with it?
I was tempted to wait for the Pixel 6, since I suffer from FOMO when it comes to my gadgets, but I do like having a few software options to fiddle around with so ordered the S21U.
I was not impressed with the post processing of the cams. It was compressed, unnatural and I posted comparisons in the S21 thread vs OP8P.
And little things... the usual Samsung bloat, it was a heavy device for its size, and Nova Launcher was buggy with it compared to OP8p and now my 9p.
The camera on the Pixel 6P needs to be amazing for me to drop the benefits of my OnePlus 9P. The camera is the 9Ps weakest link and that's saying something as it still takes great shots so...
Looking forward to seeing what Google can do with updated camera hardware.

Yeah he's good for those. I quite often to link to his videos on here when somebody asks for recommendations for a phone for a certain budget.
