Always seemed condescending to me. And clearly biased towards Goog. But if he's your hero I still wouldn't hold my breathe. Someone could've tipped him about the thread.
I don't think that was a reference to Macrumors specifically. I've seen the question about girlfriends unlocking your phone in a few places.Did anyone catch Marques mention the MacRumors thread where the guy asked if his girlfriend could unlock his iPhone X while he's asleep? Meaning Marques probably frequents these forums...LET'S FIND HIM.
May be semantics, but it seems to me that it’s the iPhone, not the envy, that being promoted by these unboxers. The envy is the result, felt by those vulnerable to it.I have been with Apple since 1982. The promotion of iphone-envy is about to completely turn me off from Apple phones.

Is anybody else shocked by the difference in picture quality of the front-facing cam between the X and the Pixel 2? The Pixel 2 really makes the X cam look like crap.
The difference was pretty significant to me. Pixel looked much crisper, especially at 4:40 in the MKBHD video, the back pack straps were miles apart.Is anybody else shocked by the difference in picture quality of the front-facing cam between the X and the Pixel 2?

I enjoy that too, on occasion.I don't get unboxing videos, it's kind of like watching someone play a video game.
There are other macs than just the laptops. All three of the desktop macs have a USB port.a USB cable that can't even be plugged into a Mac from the last two, three years. But hey. Nice to "see it unboxed"
Totally. Good charisma. Actually entertaining, not the usual contrived drone and cadence of most tech review videos.IMHO iJustine's video should be embedded on top. Her's is the best - as always.
For those of us that don't follow these that close, which one is hers?IMHO iJustine's video should be embedded on top. Her's is the best - as always.

Far from my hero. I just thought it was interesting he has nothing better to do than look at MacRumors, like the rest of us.
I watch his videos more for the quality of them, rather than what he's actually saying. He's definitely biased but at the same time will avoid saying anything really negative about any of the 'big boys' through fear of losing access to review units. Apple have been known to cut off anybody who doesn't provide an overwhelmingly positive review. He's too family friendly in that respect, and will always avoid making any subjective comments or criticisms.
Also kinda rubbed me up the wrong way when he was going on about how the YouTube 'Adpocalypse' didn't affect him. It didn't affect him because YouTube love him and he never says anything controversial. Sometimes it gets tiring listening to someone who is merely reading a carefully written script than actually saying anything of substance or personal opinion.
very true. The production quality of his videos are off the charts. I don't know if he is really good at editing or has a top of the line camera setup (or both) but his video always have a class that a lot don't do or try to hard to become. There are some reviewers that try to imitate a one on one experience with the viewer by setting up a coach, or by being in a cafe. For some reason that always kinda took me out of the review.
