Agreed. From his videos it's clear that he has at least a slight preference towards AMD which is fueled by his desire for a healthy competition on the GPU and CPU market.

 

But people see what they want to see and cherry pick his videos to reinforce their preconceived notions.

 

He does have a preference towards Razer laptops though which is (I think) as far from tech enthusiast preference as possible. 

 

Also, ASUS. He doesn't have anything against, say, EVGA or GIGABYTE but he does work with ASUS more closely (ROG reboot)

I am a meme creator. The next meme is based on Linus's bias. I've been watching for years, so I assumed I know what Linus bias is. When I thought about it, Linus takes a dump on every company and sometimes on the same company which sponsors the video. (wha....) Does he have any bias? If yes, can you give me a reference?

You can take a look at all of the Tech that I own and have owned over the years in my About Me section and on my Profile.

 

I'm Swiss and my Mother language is Swiss German of course, I speak the Aargauer dialect. If you want to watch a great video about Swiss German which explains the language and outlines the Basics, then click here.

 

If I could just play Videogames and consume Cool Content all day long for the rest of my life, then that would be sick.

I get the impression that he's biased towards Nvidia and usually biased against AMD (although that's changed a tiny bit recently).

 

He's quite a big supported of Google through G Suite and other stuff so I'd say he's biased towards them.

Judge a product on its own merits AND the company that made it.

He is critical of Apple but is he really has bias against Apple? He used iPhone for all these years except for when the new Note came out. Is he really though?

Security measures are good for apple

 

It is a selling feature that Apple has been playing on in their marketing, even with the authorities, Apple plays them like a fool, free publicity is good publicity.

Linus is an old man so he likes his headphone jack. Terrible bias against Apple and OnePlus.

gut feeling, but due to the distinct lack of Huawei Matebook X PRO and Huawei Matebook 13 coverage on his channel and actually any of their top of the line products ive come to think he has some grudge towards either reviewing the products or the company (though it can be as simple as Huawei not giving them review models due to Linus not liking EMUI)

Or Linus is biased because being an enthusiast he likes having a standardized connector on a phone as opposed to living the dongle life.
