    ZacWilson got a reaction from Nup in Was Apple WRONG?? Or too smart...   
    I'm not a fan of these unbox and demo videos, which explains why you've chosen to put them on their own channel, YT algorithm and such. It's funny that I could tell what kind of video it was going to be just by the way it was shot and edited. It's like you have so little faith in the span of your viewers attention that you've got to cut to another shot every 3 seconds to hold on to it. The content itself seemed so throwaway. It lacked both breadth of scope and depth of analysis, either of which could have turned this into a useful piece of consumer advice. Instead it seemed little more than the video equivalent of a product description.
     
    The limited comparison to the mophie was a step toward proper scope but a long way from the product segment round-ups you've done in the past. I felt like I was waiting for you to pull out another three or four similar products to compare against, but they never came.
     
    The rudimentary charge speed test was a step toward proper analysis but a long way from the single product in-depth reviews you've done in the past. I felt like I was waiting for the cutaway to the graphic that showed the results of a systematic test of how position and orientation affect charge rate, or to a diagram of where the coils actually are in the device, but it never came.
     
    I suppose it's because this is a low-effort low-content content format. I hope this format doesn't detract from the quality or frequency of the LTT videos I regularly enjoy, and I know you'll do whatever proves to be in business interest. I just fear that this lesser content might actually be more profitable.

    Finally a worthy replacement for my One M7 from a year ago. This phone features a stunning ID, lightning fast performance, and aside from a couple of small complaints... is damn near as good as it gets. I hope you guys enjoy this video because I feel like now, one year into doing phone reviews, this is about as good as we can make them... It's a lot of work, but if you guys enjoy it, then it's all worthwhile....
     

     
     
    Now onto the good stuff. HTC is giving us up to TWO phones to give away. All we need to do is generate 10,000 unique impressions on this tracked product page link, and I will give away two phones to random posters in this thread no matter who you are or where you're from in the world.
