I used to follow EverythingApplePro a long time ago but I unsubscribed when he starting posting so many videos with clickbait titles like “Final design leaked” which was a lie. And he started adding like 8 ads per video.
Got a tip for us?

This logic is beyond stupid 🙄 everyone doesn’t know, hence the jump in views. 🤦🏻

Clearly, YOU don’t know. You and the other 15 year olds that click on those links.
Im just sick of you tubers in general minus a few that actually give a review based on the tech. Some just act like its the best thing ever, some are trying to sell themselves on which one to get, some just regurgitate someone else's reviews, and some always review it based on someone who makes YouTube videos for a living.
lol i don’t know what?
yeah you contradicted yourself there, not everyone knows!
And I never click on those links, if you’ve been keeping up with the thread, my problem is they pollute my search results. And it doesn’t take long to figure out you been misled. So try again 🤷🏻
Choice of thumbnails for videos really tells you a lot about a reviewer. The ones where it's some dude with his mouth wide open screaming in the thumbnail is a giant red flag. Why you screaming about phones?
I don’t think they’re screaming, I think they’re just thirsty
Speaking of ads...wtf is with Youtube dropping in ads abruptly in the middle of a video? No warning, it's a straight jump cut into the ad. Youtube is such a horrible user experience now. It's like 50% ad, 50% content.
So, I'm not sure how much control each channel has in the number of ads per video.
I can’t stand clickbaiters or people who give nothing of value & simply regurgitate spec sheets. Nowadays the only tech channels on YouTube I’ll watch are the following:
the facepalming thumbnails are the worst
Yep I can happily watch ijustine, Krystal and mkbhd. I think zollotech was alright as well (im sure I got the name right).
Maybe the actual problem is the people who know a dozen YouTube unboxers by name.
Maybe stop watching dumb videos and the people who make money because you watch them will stop making them.

Lisa from MobileTechReview here, and no I didn't do a video of phones we don't yet have. While I think it's disingenuous to do that sort of thing, I have a strong suspicion that some of the bigger YouTubers who don't usually do this sort of thing, did it this time for a very specific reason. It's COVID and what it's done to launch events that journalists and tech YouTubers normally attend and where they're given hands on time with the product and shooting space so they can do a genuine hands-on first impressions sort of video. That's suddenly gone since March 2020, and the bigger channels that attend these events tried to come up with some way to do launch coverage. Again, I personally did NOT do this, and I don't think it's a good idea, but a lot of channels are suddenly without their usual tentpole videos and are grasping for a way to do what they used to do (minus actual product LOL).
I don’t think she’s genuine in anything she produces as she is clearly producing for a teenage no questions asked crowd.
If that were true they wouldn’t need to attempt to fool their audience with fakes.
That’s probably what we get for using a platform that belongs to the world’s biggest ad company and data miner.
Let’s add any article or video based around lists. All made up crap.
X amount of things you need to do when in xyz.
X amount of best xyz ever etc.
MKBHD is biased for or against Apple? I find Marques critiques refreshing. He applies his same filters to all the tech he reviews. And if he's biased against Apple, that's surprising for all the Apple Tech he uses daily.
