Took way too long for that review. He had the iPhone weeks before most people and I like his reviews. I am not even going to check it out since I got my own opinion and review and of it now.

Sadly, it's a pretty weak review. Basically just talks about the features which you can read about and doesn't give much an opinion. He's done better before, this one seemed rushed.

Seems like every other iPhone review. After taking all this time to post a review, I truly expected a more detailed review. For once, MKBHD disappoints.
 
I think he probably wants to retain viewership by staying relative neutral in his preference of android/iOS. He could of been more in depth on what he liked/disliked but I think if he really said what he thought it would be TLDR buy a nexus.
 
I like him too. I am one of his subscribers. I really liked that first skin he showed maybe on
6. Wonder where he got it?

All he did was state the new features. Not impressed with this one. And MKBHD never disappoints me usually...

Like his Apple Watch review

He likes android better and that's fine

Maybe its because there isn't much to talk about?

There really is not much to say other than the new features. It's the same phone we got last year but faster. I am totally fine with it, but it does not make for much of a review. S models are never anything new just a refinement.
 
For a Fandroid. It was the best you are going to get. His Macbook review was about the same. He was wrong about live photos only being seen on the device it was taken on but I do like most of his reviews on non apple products.
 
Took way too long for that review and all he did was list off the specs/features. Looks like I'll be waiting for Anandtech's real review.
 
All I see is galactic series for slickwrap. I don't like that one. DBrand, I don't see the color he has. Maybe
they don't make it anymore.


I was wondering if that was a case or skin. Thanks for posting this info!
 
Gotta be one of his weakest reviews and based upon the time he actually did it shows his lack of interest.

That's what I was thinking.

One of my favourite reviewers is Mike(DetroitBORG) they are on the longish side but very detailed. No bull, straight to the point and as a plus he doesn't seem to need to say 'peace' at the end of his videos.

Weak review? Nah...just stating the specs of the new phones that really aren't that exciting or groundbreaking. We should be coming to expect that from 's' series devices by now.

Want something nice, new, and exciting! Wait for the iPhone 7.
