Because I want to comment on his greed and the fact that he no longer gives honest opinions and the fact that he pushes his viewers to buy absolutely terrible products because he’s getting paid to shill them….I’m the problem? Or maybe it is people like you who are the problem. The silly people who just like to see the same product over and over again at the same price points that don’t make any financial sense, that he’s convincing you to buy because he’s getting paid to not tell you the long list of cons about the product. Stop jerkin it to the sound of his voice and compare his old videos where he gave an actual opinion about the products instead of taking a $3,000 - $6,000 check every day to record what basically amounts to an advertisement for an absolutely horrible product.

This isn’t an advertising channel, it’s a tech channel. Get your priorities straight, watch his old videos where he gave balanced reviews on all the hardware and software.

    For everyone saying in the comments that this device should have analog sticks - just buy the Anbernic RG35XX H. It’s basically the same device, but slightly larger, same chip, same form factor but with dual analog sticks, wifi and Bluetooth for around 20 bucks more.

      @johnmichaels4330 13 днів тому +2

      @JimmyCougar he isn't a critical guy. Read some of his posts. He just reviews things and tells you what they might be good for. Sometimes he tells you when you probably wouldn't want to use the item. The items all work for their own purposes. He doesn't do Temu items that don't work so what would you expect? An Rpi is excellent if you need gpio and a great community. A Jetson is great if you need the power. A mobile GPU will work for what it is intended and none of them will give you the AAA gaming experience of an Alienware desktop. All of it works so there isn't anything to be critical of. Same with the mini hand helds. Maybe those of us who games on the original game boy, just don't expect as much and are amazed at what these little things do.
