I miss the days when tech adapted to our needs rather than us adapting to our tech.
That's the iPad story. You can do some stuff there but you'll need to readapt to something worse.
Pin this comment.
only happens if you buy apple
When was that lol?
You didn't pull any punches here, and I love it. It's good seeing people talk about this issue.
Also, remember how a 60Hz screen on $400 Pixel 6a was "disgraceful", but a $700+ iPhone having a 60Hz screen is a non-issue?
And the list goes on
Yeah, it was bad and choppy 🤢🤮
But with the new iPhone 15
60 hz is great for 900$ 😇
@@AhmedIbrahim_well the 60hz display on my mate's note 20 was pretty smooth but they still complained
@@AhmedIbrahim_hell, the 60hz display on my old Xperia 1 ii felt almost as smooth as the pro motion 14 pro and definitely alot smoother than the base 15
@@AhmedIbrahim_If dis was satire I'm so sorry lol
I switched from 12 Pro to 15 Pro, and I was shocked how small the differences were.
You are right, watching the "reviews" one would think the differences were enormous.
I finally switched my wife from 12 PM to 15 PM because I thought the cameras were going to be a huge improvement. They are, well, better... But honestly she still would prefer to have her old 12 and isn't that excited or enthralled with the 15. She didn't see the point of upgrading...
Ive always said since its release that the ip12 pro/ pro max will be the only one you need til the next generation.
Same here 12p to 15p is a sidegrade.
Differences are the same as Ukranian progress to kick out Russia
@@johnwebber6485 i've been using my 12PM for 3 years now. actually, the biggest downside of 12PM cameras are photos in low light mode. in the environment with enough light source, it's still captures an amazing images and videos, but when hit dark environment or in the night times, even 14PM captures better quality images due to their bigger lens. but i think it's too much to spend 1500 bucks only to get a better low light cameras. so i'm considering 15PM or the next 16PM just because they're using USB-C. for me that's a big deal since i have another gadget with USB-C so i don't need to have 2 types of cable lying around in my house and travelbag
Not just phones - any consumer product like cameras etc. You can’t trust them. You are 100% correct.
Samsung never disappoints, in these ways...
@@IAmKAZMOSamsung dissapoints in other ways. And I'm talking as a current S23 Ultra user
@@SeikGames NO company is perfect for each individual Consumer. I may like big phones bc I have long fingers. Not so good for a person that's missing two fingers. That's a laughable expectation. I'm about to pre-order the S24! As S20 FE user I knew (years ago) your s23 was comparable to mine except for the camera. It's not about just getting a new phone. It should be "I have exhausted this tech til it's demise and now. I will upgrade" Don't just keep buying blindly simply bc it exists.
@@IAmKAZMO two times already I've said myself that I won't buy Samsung again (after Sony, Huawei) and now again. I had S8, S20 Ultra. Both of them had problems which really frustrated me. My point is that Samsung, as any other manufacturer out there, DOES dissapoint
@SeikGames If that's YOUR User Experience... 🫡 You can only speak for yourself is my point.
I can't express my relief of you talking about it man. Finally the true words from a true person thinking and saying the true and only the true.

I got a 15 Pro max and everyone looks at me like I'm crazy when I say that I liked my old android better. It had more features and utility for me. Aside from the camera, everything on the iPhone is a step down imo. What you said is what I've been saying (as a non-reviewer) since I got the phone and it's nice to see some actual originality and truth in a review for once. Thumbs up man.
You really need to have a few other apple products to see the Value and utility in iPhones. It shouldn’t be that way, but it is.
Agreed bro
@@kingbucketz182 I’ve used a few of them together and it’s nice, but not nice enough to spend a couple grand to get into the ecosystem imo. There is no real innovation and it’s more about the convenience aspect of it.
coming from a oneplus nord 2 to a 15 Pro and i got to say it has tons of other features and most of all has amazing performances and amazing camera, so a totally worth upgrade imo
@@kingbucketz182 Well i use Windows + Samsung, and its just as good as iPhone + mac (for me its even better).
I really have to repeat what most ppl say, Iphones are just better for Instagram and, but just for the Americans, iMessage.

He doesn’t have a problem with UA-camrs being successful it’s stupid and annoying when they complain that their balls is being busted by the new UA-cam ad policy when they are driving expensive cars.
Their standard of living is so high that making 50k a month is living on breadcrumbs for some of them they need to get a grip and so do you.
I went to update my iPhone 12 Pro to the 15 Pro but was underwhelmed when the sales guy went through it saying it’s very similar to what I had. Then they guy asked how open to changing to android was I seeming he knew I had an iPad, Apple Watch etc. I now have a Z Fold 5, and the whole Samsung system, I’m even using DeX now. It’s like going from a horse drawn cart to a sports car.
Wow, what an upgrade. Congrats 👏
Ya iphones are meant so ridiculous, people really don't know what they're missing.
I used to hate IPhone amd always used android, but I love how 15 PM plays Resident evil4 remake and resident evil 8. I'm team Iphone now. The phone overheating is not really an issue either.
that's fair. Personally I dont know anyone who plays that game even on PC@@GnA_000
I switched from a 14 Pro Max to the Z Fold5 and im loving it. Can't wait to get the Tab S9 Ultra to replace my ipad 😅

Apple don't send early review units anymore to any one, even MKBHD don't get them before.
@@STAmmoproof?
@@mysterio7807 just go to MKBHD channel and you'll see that he made iPhone 15 impressions video captured at the openening event and full review he published just 1 month after that. Plus, once in his podcast he was telling (actually not only him), that reviewers after event have to buy themselfs new iPhones, yes they get good dicount at a local Campus store, but they don't get devices for free enymore and in advance.
@@STAmmowhat are you talking about MKBHD was talking about he was using his iPhone 15 pro Max (early) to pay with Apple pay and people didn't blink an eye because they thought it was the 14... MKBHD was literally talking about his non-disclosure agreement with Apple 😂
Bro you are the man for calling them out. I've been irritated at the apparent cognitive dissonance the tech space has had. You've earned a subscriber. Please keep telling it like it is, you're a breath of fresh air in this space.
I agree with you on many of the points you make…
Even if I would probably not switch back to Android I will say that the only difference I felt “upgrading” from a 13 Pro to a 15 Pro is that I have less money in my bank account.
That's it!
😂😂😂
Actually you save yourself from a “timebomb” 13 pro series screen problem
@@LeeMooEez Apple iPhones cost the Companie 50 Dollar 😁 and they sell it for over 1000
I have no idea who you are. I just got an iPhone 15 pro Max for business using it as my second line. My last iPhone was an iPhone X. Thank you for this transparent review
You got my sub!
Exactly the same I felt.
I am not an Apple user, but I noticed these reviewers were really trying hard to justify Apple lately. More like a salesman and less like a reviewer.
Same i unsubscribed from most big UA-camrs a while back, they'll justify everything apple does. Can you believe a budget pixel 6a having 60hz was a no go, but on a flagship iPhone they say average person won't care
The hypocrisy is real.
Same here.
Honestly, phone reviews from mainstream channels have been very useless for quite a while now
Lol I can sense whom you are talking about 😂
But yes it's true
@@masteroogway_4who is it? I will unsub from that person
Thank you so much, i needed to hear this. Like i didnt even know the 24MB pictures only work during the day and only from the main camera and they talked about it like it was a perfect feature. Thanks 🙏
You are spot on. Reviewers are not doing a favor to the apple community. No critic, no improvement.

Simply put, the influencer culture has started to overtake more and more of youtube and there's no easy way for viewers to immediately spot the difference between reviewer and influencer other than to analyze channels' video history and actual content.
One useful indicator / signal for phones that I use to filter is how many devices the youtuber has daily driven over a week (deeply experienced as a real user), beyond just "reviewing" every single device sent to the doorway.
This is my first time ever seeing one of your videos and to my surprise, you gave the first honest opinion of the iPhone 15 I have heard yet. Your honesty here made me subscribe as well. Thank you for this video. I wish I had seen it 3 months ago when it was new.
When the phone was released, I was in shock at how terrible the "update" was. Now I am looking to jump back to Samsung with the S24 looking so nice right now.
Totally agree on this with technology reviews overall.
I hope this gains more traction.
I watch Flossy cos he's not afraid to be critical of Apple. He's got an almost 2 hour iPhone 15 Pro Max "real review" that's not just informative, but entertaining.
The one thing I like about flossy is even though he occasionally gets reviews units in he still buys phones out of his own pocket even if he has a review unit so he can review them honestly. He didn’t have to do that
Actually crazy how flossy made it big despite not having fancy editing or any of that professional stuff. Just by keeping it real and being entertaining. He stands out.
Flossy is the goat with his Real Reviews.
Agreed
Flossy is the type that says it as he sees it, no pandering
No matter how much the company tried to blacklist you, I'm very glad you called the big UA-camrs out for fanboyism due to unjustifiable of paranoias of Apple blacklisting the reviewers.
It'd be very surprised if one specific company had threatened a lawsuit against you OVER reviewing a product.
@monmc88 yeah he always does it's so shocking i just dnt believe anything coming out of their mouth anymore
@@monmc88yes bro ithink he gets paid by apple for it
@@monmc88yeah back then you could EASILY tell that he was an android fan untill he became apples sponsor pet

He don't even know what is the internals ans can't show the real data that other youtube creators like Jerry rig etch. Even playing gaming's s23 ultra blows the iphone 15 pro max for long gaming apple throttled fast and lagging and dimming what a joke phone.😂
@@monmceditzz not just positive, that dude made it so extravagant as if the The Iphone 15 series is the biggest thing happened in 2023. Lmao
I have noticed the same thing over the last few years. It's good to see that somebody else shares my impression of the tech review or landscape.
Finally, thank you for addressing this! Glad someone talks about this.
On a side note, not sure if a normal user is going to find the performance difference between a $1200 and a $700 phone.
If I hadn't tapped on your video, I would have made a huge tech buying mistake. We need people like you who says it as it is, who protects the consumers from tech reviewers who sugar-coate reviewes just to benefit their pockets
I just watched MKBHD's Google pixel 8 review. He was talking about those new AI features as if they're boring in a way, I can literally swear on my life if apple added features like that the media won't sleep at all. So I guess this video is very much o. Point and you have my respect man.
Apple doesn't add features so people got used to it. Which android manufactures add features so its nothing new.
But this isn't how a reviewer should act. They are professionals so they should act like one. Not normies who doesn't know any better.
I skip his stuff now. He's grown up being adored and it's made him someone that takes himself a little too seriously.
He knows his audience though . Smart man
You’re totally wrong dude.. he is a big fan of pixel and Apple, he mostly judge the way they are.. seems you’re new to his channel😊
He did say its the smartest smartphone. He did praise the phone to be honest
I have lost almost all respect for MKBHD...he always has some level of negative energy towards Android phones even when speaking some positive things. But when speaking negative for Apple it still comes off positive and is super positive when he is. This is in recent years that I have noticed that switch.
Finally someone talked about it. Thanks man, you were brave.
I’m following your channel from now on.
I’m done with Apple. After 8 years I’ll finally come home to Android.
Some iSheep has done for nearly a decade. When Samsung introduced wireless charging, they said it was useless. When iPhone got one, they fell in love with the same feature.
And many more features. So many
Even for 120hz display they said its useless and now they praise gow smooth it feels
It's honestly such a shame
and as of now, iphone and even samsung still doesnt offer higher than 65watt charging speed. do you know that company like xiaomi, and oneplus their smartphones be it high end or midrange have 65watt and above charging speed. heck most of their phones have 120watt charging. it is a different game for the rest of the world. people in the US still talks about iphone. when will this technological advance be implemented in iphone or even samsung for that matter.
@@permaisura2965do you know how hot their phones get while charging
Thank you for calling out this insanity man, thank you 🙏
Wow great to see people actually believe this messed up guy 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😁😁😁😁😁😁
I loke your energy. And how you are not afraid to offer a different perspective regarding reviews. Subscribed.
Thanks for the video! I was starting to think that I was the only one that noticed the real lack of changes. I guess most reviewers are just sales men and saleswomen now.
Thank you for being 100 percent real about this situation. iPhone updates are getting out of hand with small changes and it's not fair to the consumers at all when they keep buying repackaged iPhone hardware from the previous year while making the old iPhone with the same exact hardware obsolete. I'm in the process of switching back to Android. Looking at either the Pixel 8 pro or Galaxy S23 Ultra. Enough is enough
Get that 8 pro. It's literally redefining what a "smart phone" is. I have quite literally made a group of iphone users regret their 15
Yea I’m on the phone with AT&T now discussing bout changing phones. Told them I’ll take anything but this new phone
I would say you can buy the Pixel, but if you don't want then wait for S24 it will be good.
I'd go with the S23 ultra imo, the Google pixel 8 lineup sounds good but they lack performance because of the Google tensor chipset being underpowered and about as good as a flagships chipset from 3 or 4 years ago.
They do however have amazing cameras, which take equally amazing pictures though 😊
Longtime iphone user here 👋🏽...I just switched to the S23 and I love it! I just couldn't take the ios17 shenanigans anymore and I switched to android. Goodbye iphone...see you never
Totally agree! And you didn't talk about the refresh rate of the base iPhone 15, when someone said that an $800 iPhone in 2023 with 60Hz it's ok but destroyed the Pixel 6a, the same thing with the notch and forehead of Pixel 3's and 4's, when iPhone does it it's ok but when other company do it, it's horribly bad...
He mentioned no pro motion
@@tiktok_dailypro motion is apple fancy way of calling it 120hz.
Great video! Not only youtube of course but many written reviews from Verge, Gizmodo, Engadget, etc fuss about minor "issues" with the S24 series (for recent example) and never criticize any obvious shortcomings or issues with the annual iphone releases. It's really shameful of the entire tech reviewing industry.
So glad I bumped into your post… totally agree with your position and just subscribed
I swear to God he's my favourite UA-camr from now on. This are true facts. I just watch other phone reviews and I notice how they exaggerate little updates on the iphones, but give little to zero attention on the new cool features on pixels or Samsung's and other android phones
💯
Especially @mrwhosetheboss he is very fucking bias in comparison
@@unapologeticallyBlackman I honestly used to like mrwhosetheboss, but then I continually just started noticing just how terrible of a reviewer he is and ended up unsubscribing, which is a pity since he used to actually be pretty decent.
he's not hitting hard enough, unfortunately. Still sparing his looser colleagues from real slaps on their happy faces
@@Dwivilhe didn't notice you unsubscribed, what a shame, just go ahead and unsubscribe from every UA-camr that gives positive reviews on apple products
The fact that the s24U will have a language translater in live calls and can be translated by any phone. And that's an amazing upgrade. Something apple would do in a few years and call a revolution.
Precisely!
I'm getting an s24 ultra myself. this feature does sound phenomenal. But, the use case seems slim, and the actual translation is currently very off sometimes, giving incorrect translations or just stiff speech that doesn't flow correctly.
Updates can fix this no doubt, but at the same time, when will this really be useful? The most useful part I could think of is using it to call an asian or Hispanic restaurant, but those places don't use personal phones with language settings, they use throwaway restaurant phones that are always set to English anyways since they are in an English speaking country.
This feature would only be useful for communicating with people over personal phones, and people don't associate with others they can't already communicate with. Chances are everyone you know in your personal life already communicates with you perfectly in the language you speak.
So when really narrowing it down, it seems most useful for calling your significant others parents if they don't speak English that well.
I think the more useful translation feature is the recorded and translated conversation feature.
Work someplace, a customer comes in and they don't speak English? Whip out the phone, record convo and translate, boom you can help them without issue.
Or it would help when traveling abroad when talking to locals who may not speak your language.
However this feature also has the poor translation issue the phone call translation has. Nothing updates can't fix I'm sure, but for now a dead feature until improved.
The REALLY useful feature is the AI circling image to Google search. That'll make finding something you're having troubles searching for online so so so much easier.
The difference is, when Apple does it, it won’t be a half-asset solution, it will work flawlessly, and not a gimmick.
@@bzzi Like the USB C port which they have grudgingly added after many years, and designed so that any non-Apple charger will slow down charging? No thanks. I'd rather have a part of something rather than wait several years for a feature that should have been there all along.
Ofc cuz they'd release it after years , other phones will make it flawless within a year while apple you'll have to wait 7 years to atleast get it
Thank you for sharing your observations. Since I am no fan of any specific phone brand, I agree with you 100%. I have observed this bias reviews as well.
3:22 😂😅🤣
Your apple ecosystem is amazing!
Saw it just now!! Thanks 😂😅😆
Finally, a person who steps up and actually cares, while MKBHD and MrWhosetheboss have made a video claiming that they try not to be biased it really feels like they make such videos just for the sake of giving a sense of fake honesty. Apple was once a company that used to grow on the principle of innovation but now, I feel that such mind control and creating loyalty toward themselves is their core principle. when a budget phone like pixel 6a has 60 hz they go mad but when 15 base has 60 hz they consider it satisfactory. when the Pixel 3 XL got a notch, they went wild and when they put a forehead with face ID, they as expected criticized it when Apple is the only one allowed to "innovate" it. Edit: for those who are criticizing me over MKBHD i just meant that the thumbnails and video titles at 4:10 are a bit misleading and can give wrong impressions otherwise he is one of the less(least)biased ones. Arun was the main disappointment i was talking about.
They both are apple fanboys. I really don't watch their content anymore because they are VERY biased.
@@midrangelifestyle6243 you could say Mrwhostheboss is an apple fanboy because his reviews on iphones are kinda biased and he uses iphone daily, but saying mkbhd is an apple fan boy is stupid, he mainly uses pixel phones and his reviews about iphone are kinda okay

@@lok6314 Moral of the story is, stop blindly following tech reviewers. So far JerryRigEverything feels more neutral.
Appreciate you man! Staying with what I got cause I know it will be good for years! 👍🏾
Wow. I didn’t upgrade from 12 to 13 for same reason. It’s still holds true. It’s a relief knowing I made right choices
I'm glad someone has the courage to call it out these guys are misleading the consumers and filling their pockets while doing it. Thank you 🙏
You have just won a subscriber! We need more unbiased tech reviewers like you
me 2
You got a new subscriber! Thank you for this honest review.
You are the kind of reviewer that the community needs. Well done.
My thoughts as a former subscriber of many tech review youtubers is that we live in a time of mountains of e-waste and reviewing every single phone that comes out every year is not helping but they have to serve their masters The Algorithm and The Wealth.
its so simple really just dont watch their content and dont buy iphones, your problen is solved
They literally don't and simply cannot review EVERY phone that comes out. They just review the big name ones or ones with interesting gimmicks or ones that get some buzz, or from companies that try and seed products. But a lot of phones simply do not get reviewed or featured and get left in the dust.
And this isn't even mentioning Chinese, Japanese and other region specific phones.
For me, a mid-range phone user who just use messaging application mainly.
I watch those tech reviewer to see how they spin their words around. It's more about beauty of grammar than tech for me.
I mean you see none of them ever do it in a ultra boring yet methodical way like comparing day mode, night mode, zoom, video, motion video etc according to a checklists. And the result? Unlimited storytelling & spins on how each 48, 50 Megapixels camera are "REALLLLLY different" from one another by featuring only certain comparisons but definitely not all. *claps*
Same can be said about computer parts too. Especially gpu and cpu.
@@billzzdimzz2990 exactly
This is what I was learning how to film and edit for to create more honest videos. I hated how these reviewers would hype one product even its flaws and pretend those flaws don't exist. But if you are a reviewer and you speak your own opinions on a product that isn't the "norm" or what's expected, you are a hater and people trash you. This is the difference between an influencer and a reviewer. Reviewers oftentimes buy their own products and tell you the good, the bad and the ugly so you can make an informed decision. Influencers are paid by the companies to make them look good.
My honest take on the iPhone 15 series, is it the same phone as the 14, 13 and 12? Pretty much yes. A few gimmicky pieces of software and a bit more speed that you, the average user, won't even notice. Does it feel nicer in the hand if you go naked (caseless)? Yep. I love how it feels but like ANY phone, it will get hot at times and who the hell wants to hold hot metal? No one. There in comes the cases. I think the screens look nice but not much different at all from my Galaxy s23 plus when held side by side. The USB-C is the only reason worth upgrading. It makes accessing the files and storage and photo exporting SO much easier. If you have other devices that run on USB-C, that makes it a no brainer if you insist on staying with Apple. Some people like the simplicity and ease of use. That's totally fine. You have to be the one to like the device you pay for and rely on daily. But is the iPhone 15 series head turning? NOPE. Is the OS revolutionary? Nope. It hasn't changed much in the past 10 years aside from the gimmicks. If you don't need/want the USB-C, don't bother upgrading.
I saw the video Justine made as I watch her stuff as a guideline to how to film these kinds of videos and I was floored when she said, "If you think this is the same phone, you'd be wrong!" The first words out of my mouth were in disbelief and said, "No... it's almost exactly the same phone." I like Justine but she has the SAME reaction to literally every single product she reviews. She's become a model like the Price is Right girls and sadly her sister is the same way. Every single product reviewed is all, "OH MY GOD! This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen." You have GOT to be bored saying the same thing over and over. Be real. Be sincere, be honest. Mr.whosetheboss is the same way. He will tout how wonderful all Apple products are, review something not Apple and find all these amazing qualities and then rip it apart over dumb stuff. MKBHD panders to the brand who is paying the bills but he's a bit more honest than some of these other bigger youtubers.
Once MKBHD used to compare the price, like is it value for the money product? Its shame that almost all big reviewers don't talk about it..the ones that talk about it have very few followers
Nail in the coffin. This is a solid well expressed comment, specially your calling out name. You nailed the description of those paid shills well. Great Job.
I never comment under videos but I thought I should on this one. Honesty is a rare thing nowadays and must be appreciated when you come across it. My man you spoke the truth and I bet that's something many of your viewers thought while watching your video. We are all consumers but we are not fools... Reviews are supposed to be made to help people understand a product and possibly make a purchase. In other words the reviewers need to be honest and not acting on behalf of the companies. I also believe that a company should be rewarded for their respect towards the customer and their effort to improve their products. I am not a fan of apple not because their products are bad but because they have the mentality that whatever they get out there we will buy it no questions asked...Thank you for your video!
Excellent video. Exactly what I feel when I watch those review videos.
If a review video does not criticize at least a few things about the product, it is an advertisement, not a review.
Really Happy to find a reviewer saying facts to the customer. These days UA-camrs don't care about the customer, only care about how much the brand is paying them to say so. You earn my subscription.
🤏🏻😎✌🏻
I think other tech reviewers are afraid That Apple will stop sending them free iPhones to review.
May be this is one of the reason 😂
1 of the reasons, another one is if apple fan boy hears a bad word for iPhone he is going to un-sub immediately from the channel :) toxic community with toxic company.
@@gizmoMKD - I’m a huge Apple fan (personal preference from my own bad experiences with Android), but I’m still subbed - and I don’t come on here talking crap despite the clear bias.
In my opinion, it’s good to see opinions and honest reviews from both sides, even if I don’t agree with everything. It’s still good getting a hefty dose of reality about some of the negatives about Apple, because they clearly exist.
Apple *does* need to start stepping up their game, they have been letting their customer base down by continuously releasing fluffed up software changes and doing virtually nothing to hardware.
my point is, when there is something sh1t we all agree that it's a sh1t... instead hitting the wall with our heads. i never hold a side for example android vs ios whoever is better when i have to buy a new phone i switch the side because basic stuff (phone calls, sms, social media, games...) is the same in both platforms but there are people who holds a side...@@Darkn3tMagic

I upgraded from a Xr to a 15PM and I am thoroughly enjoying it, but I also agree with literally everything that you said. You were literally cooking them 😂 and it’s nice to see a UA-camr truly being transparent.
I had iPhone XS and I have upgraded to 14 pro when it came out. I’ve been using iPhone for the last 14 years but upgrading from XS to 14 pro , I can’t see a huge difference other than the cameras. Apple needs to step up their game and release something good otherwise they will start losing their clients. I have another phone, company phone low end Samsung ( I mean cheapest Samsung you can buy) and to be honest it does a fair bit of work. That Samsung cost £250. So price to performance goes to it not to my iPhone that I paid £1099.
So you call an android meatrider transparent ? His whole chanel is about meatriding and glorifying androids 😂
I upgraded from the iphone 12 pro max to zfold 5. Never looked back. I saw how trapped i was. I couldn't transfer bigger files from my pc to my iphone unless i cut up all parts of a video into smaller parts. Also downloading stuff from my iphone to pc is a chore. It's disgusting how trapped you are using an iphone. Now after 4 months of zfold 5 i am never going back to apple. Even if they make a foldable.
Can you explain why you haven't switched to Android then, since you seem to be able to see how lacking iPhone is?
Sure. In all honesty its because despite it all Ive invested quite some time and money into the apple ecosystem, and it would be very expensive to essentially "start over". Its also because there are so many things that I enjoy about said ecosystem, and I would miss certain features or aesthetics. That being said though, its extremely frustrating when a company refuses to listen to its customers because we're seen as the vocal minority and does not improve upon the criticism it receives. @@GeeEee75
Hey man, hope you read this. I am critical of so many UA-camrs especially the big ones like MKBHD and have stopped watching them as I feel they're so shallow and one sided. I've watched so many of your videos and you put a lot of effort and thought into them. Appreciate your work and non BS approach and calling a spade a spade. One of favourite tech UA-camrs by far.
MKBHD at least is calling out Apple's shady business practices, but Mr Whose The Boss is a big time Apple meat rider, he can't go one second without telling good things about Apple.
@@shreenandandas6479 Exactly my thoughts. MKBHD has changed a fews years ago now giving his own thoughts.
But mrwhoistheboss is simply not qualified as a reviewer. He's more of an actor
@@delosei7332
You can add Mr. Mobile to that list too...
Yes Mrwhosetheboss is an apple fanboy(never forget the iPhone vs Android collab) but at least he calls them out sometimes and he actually doesn’t favour them too much in comparison videos
MKBHD literally champions the Pixel over the iphone and has since the 7 pro model ...
Thank you for making this ! I looked at the current iPhone generation and was genuinely flabbergasted at the unnecessary positive reception these phones are receiving.
I love mrwhostheboss but yeah as someone who works in a telecomm company selling phones, i was so underwhelmed. Its hard for me to answer when the customers ask me what the difference is between 14 and 15. Like other than 48mp instead of 12mp cameras, dynamic island both of which the 14 pros already had and just got added to the 15 and plus, the only new thing is titanium.
While I hold his work in high regard, I can't help but notice that his channel seems to increasingly feature promotional content. It often feels more like a platform for company advertisements rather than the original content that drew me to his channel initially.
I second what you said. As a Samsung fanboy, but I always complain about the shortcoming of a Samsung phone. I am not jus whining about it. I actually wrote lots of written feedbacks to Samsung via email, Samsung Members app and Official Samsung forum. Nothing is perfect, it w will be fine if we keep moving forward with improvement. There would not be any improvement if you don't acknowledge the shortcomings. Ignorance of the fact is what those reviewers have.
You deserve more viewers for telling the truth.
One of the realest videos I came across on UA-cam. We need more people like this guy. He's a 1000% right. First time here and new subscriber. Thank you sir 🤝.
I agree brother. You looking for authentic opinions based on different perspectives, also Apple HR had to me stop UA-cam videos when I worked for them. 🍎
Thanks for showing what's happening in the UA-cam reviewer world
I totally agree with your points.
What most big UA-camrs mean when they say that this year's update is significant is probably that it is significant by comparison to last year when the iPhone 14 released which was actually the old same iPhone 13.
Thank you for sharing this video. Honest, professional and straight to the point.
I need to ask though, if I want to buy an iphone for the first time, would you recommend the latest version of iPhone or something else?
Thanks again.
very true, you just tell the correct about the review. very nice video man
None of the big reviewers talk about how the iphones now over process and over sharpen photos either. Thanks for bringing this up.
Thanks for your honesty and I am also sick and tired of bug UA-camrs “reviewing” but in reality marketing it. They just want to make sure they get invited to the next event and get free stuff
My God am so grateful I saw this video, the honesty is biblical. You just gained a subscriber pal and a like to go with it. And am gonna watch every single review or video you ever made and like them too. Thank you for being this honest. 🙏🏾
Damn, didn’t expect this video. Immediately subscribed only for honesty. I wish we had more UA-camrs like you good sir.
They're not reviewers. They're influencers.
I've been using my XS Max for 4+ years, i can't justify myself paying 1450 Euro for the 15 Pro Max so i can hear that back glass crack on my pocket while i sit down to tie my shoes or see the sides of that titanium black color peel off after a few months of usage.
Just imagine, Galaxy A13 which is a 120 Euro smartphone has a 90hz refresh rate display....
I am looking now for the Pixel 8 Pro and trying to grab it before 16.10.2023 as i get the pixel watch 2 for free as well.
However i am just worried about the longevity of the hardware (battery life degradation mostly).
Second and third contender is S23 Ultra or the Fold 5
The man not even holding it. Love it, sir!
I find those "big" reviewers spitting many nonsense and somehow everybody just accepted it as fact.
Less and more less reviewers criticize Apple products, "somehow"
This video makes me subscribe to your channel. Thanks for the honest review and expecting to keep these true reviews in the future, too.
To be honest, this is exactly what I've been thinking about a lot of years ago. You made it public and I'm glad, thank you. I stopped following a lot of UA-camrs I've been following for years because of this. Amazing how Apple can get away with anything but Google or else are measured with a different scale, everything should be "better" or not good enough even though it may be better of an Apple product but they'll always have an excuse and everyone buys them.
Nothing is good enough
Finally! Someone has put my concerns on UA-cam. I've been wanting to voice this out for years. Thank you very much for laying this issue down to those reviewers. They never give honest reviews about apple iphones.
I like the way you mentioned the fact that they talked expressed their outmost dissatisfaction with the pixel 3XL for using similar front camera island as the iphones but kept mute with the iphone's island. They have made iphones so over hyped, making Apple very complacent.
Once again, thank you very much for voicing this out. I give my full support for your channel. KUDOS!
Very honest review and callout, appreciate it being said out loud
Great honest review, thank you. I miss those kind of reviews cause most youtubers are paid to push a companies product.
200% agreed with you bro. Top tech youtubers should learn the basic moral thing of being a reviewer !
Can't emphasise enough how right you are! People keep buying the same phones for years and listen to other people, who tell us what manufacturers want them to.
Truth well told. Thank you for getting us this honest piece of information that made me subscribe to you. Looking forward to more. Take care.
Very true, thanks for making this video. I share your thoughts on this, nicely explained 👍🏼👏🏼
Just liked and subscribed. This is entirely spot on! I watch reviews to see an actual review about how a product actually performs/features etc. a review will include good, bad, and everything in between. I think you made a fantastic point when you said a lot of these “reviewers” are not actually reviewers any longer they are just marketers. They no longer actually review/critique products . They try to justify and sale products that are no longer innovative like apples 15 line up. Thank you for the honesty.
thank you so much for this video man, the most honest review of any apple products I've seen on youtube. Its a shame that big youtubers are still trying to justify the price and make the new iphones seem like a huge upgrade.
You just earned a subscriber with this one honest review 👏🏾👏🏾
Excellent analysis. Your candor is appreciated. #Subbed
1:28 bro straight up violated that iPhone 😂😂😂😂
What bothered me the most is when they said "It's much better than you think. Why? Because this year's phone is better than the last year one". Well duh.. ofc it's always better than the previous one, that's the point of new generation of that specific phone -_-.
Thank you for speaking your mind dude, appreciate it.
Well Said... These days, you don't get all information from reviews. Its sad, really. Thank you.
Thanks a lot! Finally someone (with a big audience) said this!!!
You couldn't have said it better. 100% Thank you for this video, Sir.
I feel like most people looking to upgrade are upgrading from earlier versions of the phone. I upgraded from 10. I didn’t care about if this was too similar to the 14 or if there were big changes from the prior version. I just wanted a review of what features to expect and to help me make a choice between the versions.
Same , I upgraded from a 12Pro with an ailing battery. I’m not a phone hobbyist and don’t upgrade every year. To each their own. How innovative is last years Viking range to this years or last years Honda to this years. Anyway, you got some comment engagement out of this.
That’s exactly what most iPhone users actually do. I have a 13 currently and probably won’t upgrade until the 16 or 17. Some people I know still have an 8 or 10 or SE.
Damn! i think this is the best tech review i have seen in years!
This video is so gem it deserves a subscription.
I am really sick of how content creators just go wild on a product like a fanboy. Its neither proffesional nor entertaining.
After being a dedicated iPhone user since the iPhone 3, Apple lost me when I saw the iPhone 15 line hoping for some major changes/innovations for once. I'm cannot justify any jump from the iPhone 13 Pro to any iPhone 14-15 models. I had watched many other video reviews, and they all made it seem better than it actually is. Then I watched comparison videos between iOS and Android and my goodness the grass looks greener on the Android side. Other smartphones seem more premium than Apple now considering what some of these other Android phones offer. Probably will switch over to Android when I look for my next smartphone. Thank you for calling it how it is.
Agreed, i’ve only ever used iPhone but i’ve been so sick of apple for a while now, and honestly the s23 ultra looks amazing so im planning on switching to that soon
And that’s ok. I used iPhone 6s all the way to iPhone 12pro because none of the phones they released were usable for me or presented a worthy upgrade. Looks like I’m in for another 3 years of waiting. The 12Pro works great for me.
The grass is greener on the Android side! Just look at the new Samsung S24 range.
I completely agree with you!! Very little objectivity with some reviewers (deliberate or not) and you calling it out is one of the reasons which makes you one of the best.
I really enjoy all your pixel content but when they deserve it you are critical of them!
I never follow such reviewers, i only search for the stuff when I need it
But here you got a subscriber!!
Big thanks for your honest thoughts, support for real objective reviews!
Still an apple big Fan, staying on the 14 Pro Silver.
But it is also nice, that they give us every year a new refresh, the 15 Pro is a solid phone.
