  1. I think I've been watching for 2 years or so now, I've always enjoyed your videos with their great mix of technical-ness and casual-ness. Keep doing what you're doing, Linus & Co!
  2. That's not what you originally said. I rebuke comments on a per-comment basis
  3. I linked you to the tech specs of each phone. How can you deny that they still sell 16GB models? They all clearly state 16GB. I'm not American (the whole world is not America). We don't have Sprint here.
  4. Well I factually Beg To Differ They all start at 16GB or lower. Samsung, Google, LG, HTC.
  5. Mate, it is pointless. At the very least, they should wait until 4K content is norm. Linus isn't the smartphone market, lol. A muge , much larger chunk of the market demands larger screens.
  6. The market demands larger phones, and this is a market force that Apple can't ignore.
  7. Fair point. I have a feeling that they will, though. Apple makes huge claims about the iPhone's camera in every generation, including making noise about how certain big events and the like were recorded on the iPhone, edited on an iPad or Mac etc, basically saying how it can be used to substitute a professional camera. Now that they've introduced far reaching 4K support in Macs, I reckon they will market the camera with 4K. Whether it will be good or not... well... I'm not sure. We'll have to see. That's what battery cases are for
  8. What? Could you re-state your question?
  9. They're not 'claiming a greater spec'. The Samsung Galaxy S5 already records 4K. So does the Oppo Find 7. LG G3, and so on. So Apple will probably be doing it the right way, then, as they've had longer to perfect 4K on a phone.
  10. You're not aware of the multiple smartphones that record 4K already? Just because they do it, doesn't mean they do it well. I have a 16GB and it's hard to store my stuff on it, have to constantly transfer photos to my PC and switch Spotify offline playlists. If the screen res is indeed as low as this (I say it's fake) then Apple will invoke the argument that a higher res screen does nothing for normal usage and just wastes battery. Which I agree with for 2K adn 4K screens. No clock speed or core mentioned because they never mention it, is has to be revealed in a teardown. But for the millionth time, Apple and Apple users don't give a rats ass what the clock speed or number of cores is, because unlike Android the software and hardware are engineered together so well that high numbers don't count for much. You're looking at this from an Android perspective. I'm not trying to sound like an Apple fanboy, but there's why looking from an Android perspective won't work.
  11. This is so fake it hurts. It's not going to be 16:10, because this list is fake.
  12. My favourite part of the G3 is its robust software, I really like the ability to change animations, keyboard size, split screen etc. In a crowded world of smartphones with basically the same specs, software has to deliver.
  13. This is wrong Especially the part highlighted in red. That is not what he meant and not what he is saying. DRM will block you from playing the film on anything but a phone. If you want to purchase the film to watch on your PC, you will have to pay more. If you buy a new monitor, you will not have to pay more. Instead of taking a simple quote literally to the point of idiocy, just think for a minute and take the time to infer what he is saying. I'm not saying this is a good model. Another example of incorrect inference. There will not be a piece of software that tricks the screen size to be '1 inch' because that's not how it will work. It will not literally be 'pay per inch'. Of course he understands what pixels are. Chances are, however, that his audience of investors / entrepreneurs don't. He is describing a system whereby different devices with different intended usages charge different prices. We should not infer from this that they will literally charge per the inch, there will be no hard-coded 'inch size' string in monitor firmware that the DRM checks... that's not what this is about. At the moment you can buy a film on iTunes for a single price for playback on a PC, Mac, iPad and Apple TV. 4 Different devices, but all with potentially different screen sizes by inch. His idea is to split this existing model up into different types of devices for the different intended use. It's not a great idea, really, but it is not literally 'pay per inch'.
  14. Way overpriced 'premium' products such as their laptops, wireless mice, 7.1 headsets etc but you can't beat their non-backlit Blackwidow, a cheap, simple, solidly built mechanical keyboard. Pairs well with the Death Adder mouse, which is a brilliant design. So basically only buy those two products from them, everything else will break on you and they'll refuse to replace them. Their founder has claimed multiple times that Razer is not a big business but a 'group' of gamers that want to make 'great products' and 'innovate'. This I call BS on for several reason:. 1. They're the largest manufacturer and retailer of PC accessories in the market. 2. They must shift tons of stock every day, anyone I know who is a PC gamer pretty much has at least one of their products 3. They spend a ton of money promoting themselves at trade fairs, they sponsor pro gamers with thousands of pounds worth of their products. They scream and shout and we all know why business scream and shout about their products - money. 4. They release a modified version of their products, seemingly, every single year. The prices keep going up.
