Retarded?

I mean, maybe it's because I live in North Texas but on occasion me and close friends will use it when talking about subjects in private. What's the problem there?

Lmfao

Mainly because I feel like he IS missing out. And frankly, his arguments AGAINST mods just don't make any sense. If he just said, "I enjoy vanilla and that's all that matters", then sure. But he was legitimately making arguments against mods.

Good god these comments are cancer.

Can confirm. Had COVID twice since 2020 and it absolutely fucking sucks. Never felt anything like it.

That would only be if it STOPS spinning IIRC.

It's spinning faster.

Dear YouTube,

Go fuck yourselves.

Sincerely, the 1% of people who actually use adblockers happily.

Good to know..

Holy shit. I apologize then lmao. That's cool.

That sounds amazing. Always wanted a Tandy. Even if it's before my time.

RadioShack.

I remember going as a kid, once. I was 5 I think. It was....unique. A shit ton of red I remember. And cheap cell phone cords. Wish I could've experienced it more. Especially during the 90s. But that's before my time.

Got a source for this? Pretty avid MKBHD watcher and I've never heard of this happen to him.

I think you'd be surprised at how many people really obsess over having the best camera in their phone. Apple wouldn't be spending the majority of their damn conferences talking about it now for nothing.

I can also confirm this as I have family that is majority from Cali. All they do is take thousands of fucking photos on their iPhones and if my Mom upgrades, it's usually because it "gets slow" or she wants the better camera.

As a nerd it's a shame, because if I could have a smartphone with no front facing camera and a shitty rear one, I would. But I'm in a minority.

He does review them at least from what I've seen recently....but yeah, he has been a lot more hands off over the last two years or so. I'm not sure what's happened. He used to be the king of tech back in 2017-2018. I started watching him in 2014, as a teen. For a long time people loved him and he was great, but more and more people now seem to dislike him. To an extent I get it. Something has changed in his content over the last two to three years I think.

That's your opinion.

I don't really give a damn about the Apple vs Android argument anymore. I was there when the first iPhone came out in 2007 and I'm over it. This flame war has gotten old.

That being said, he has critiqued Apple many times in the past for specific things. Even said the dynamic island felt gimmicky at times and wasn't sure how well it would hold up. Also shat on the Touchbar for being useless.

So he has critiqued Apple. But let's be real, what the fuck are you seriously going to critique on a modern iPhone? The modern smartphone has evolved so much that what else is there to add beside new hardware and sometimes gimmicky technology? You'd be hard pressed to find a "bad" phone now. I don't get excited for iPhones anymore. Not because they're bad. And yes you can critique the small things. But at the end of the day, an iPhone....is an iPhone. It's not amazing or revolutionary anymore. It just "is". And oh hey, here's a bigger battery this year. Cool.

The secondary cover screen is pretty cool, don't get me wrong. And let's be real, modern flip phones LOOK fucking cool. But....from a user perspective, is there anything a flip phone can do that your average phone CAN'T do? Besides flipping?

No just YouTube vids

That's the funny thing. Once you use it so much you can instantly recognize when something was generated by it based on its frequent usage of certain words or formats. Dunno why I'm being downvoted for that. It's true.

No he's fucking not. He's always liked Apple, just didn't really get into them until the 5S. Been watching him since 2014, and even then he still said recently on the waveform podcast he prefers Android.

Plenty of things to critique Marques over. This ain't one.
