I agree with your list, mostly.

 

But I would like to add UFD Tech for mining related stuff, TechAltar for mostly mobile cellphone news/stories, EposVox for just.. Whatever he uploads (in terms of tutorials, tips, etc.) is very interesting.

I feel like Hardware Canucks deserves a spot on the list too, but not sure what to classify them as.

I also watch a lot of Tech Yes City and Hardware Unboxed personally. Tech Yes City does a lot of used parts and Hardware Unboxed (especially Steve) is the benchmark king lol.

Technology focused YouTube creators tend to be the best based on opinion. For example, I watch Linus's content, iJustine's content, Jonathan Morrison's content, some of Austin Evan's content, and almost all of Uxwbill's technology content. That's it. I don't spend hours every day watching dozens of people saying the same things about the same products. That's also the reason I only watch one review of a product on one channel.

Linus used to be the best one because he provided the most informative content.  Now, it's largely about entertainment and antics, and its driven by RGB liquid cooled advertising revenue.  I'm still subbed to him because every now and then he does make a video that's very helpful.

Only in techquickie... Everything else not so much, some videos it feels like he goes into more detail about the sponsors product more than what the actual video is about.

Personally... I like Gamer's Nexus, Actually Hardcore Overclocking, LMG, and Tech YES City the most. These guys are top tier in my book.

 

Used to be big into Tech Deals, back when he did a lot of price/performance value oriented stuff, but there's too much paid reviews for new products, some of which arent even a good value IMO. Don't get me wrong, I still watch tech deals, and he does still do some value oriented stuff, but not like he did a year ago.

 

Science Studio is pretty good usually (when he's not getting offended by his viewers)

 

RandomGaminginHD and Timmy Joe Tech are pretty entertaining for old hardware IMO.

 

Jay's2Cents and Bitwit are of course great for reasons stated previously. (Them Bitwit sketches though! just cant get enough of em!!!)

 

Paul is OK Hardware, Hardware Unboxed is OK

 

I pass on Hardware Canucks, Austin Evans, iJustine, UFD.

 

This is just my opinion

GamersNexus for entertainment and ridiculous amounts of detail. They're just about to start doing proper PSU reviews :P
Actually Hardware Overclocking with his PCB breakdowns are awesome if you want a deep dive on how the things work.

Can confirm; @LinusTech isn't always funny - he's hilarious and never fails to insert an innuendo whenever possible, even if it doesn't quite fit in the hole. ;) Literal humor is my jam, so keep laughing at all your ban puns and I'll laugh right along with you.  :D Maybe LTT should write the next sketch comedy show that eventually becomes a North American sensation, like the Red Green Show.
