When you buy an ULTRA camera phone, it can honestly be a little overwhelming, but there are some EXCELLENT tools in these camera apps. Let's take a tour of the vivo X300 Ultra, and make sure you get the MOST out of this crazy camera setup! www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfcp...

THIRTEEN YEARS AFTER GOOGLE GLASS! 13 years of CONSTANT unearned media coverage and hype with NOTHING to show in this space, and NOW Apple might MAYBE figure out how to put mics and speakers in a pair of glasses to battle Meta. Tech media is broken.

may be worth a watch for my U.S. friends about the ban on non U.S. made routers. TLDR you don't actually make any, and the security concerns are kinda bogus, since the NSA had a sneaky habit if making companies install backdoors for themselves and then of course, having those backdoors found ... 🤡

Malware FROM GOOGLE PLAY installed on a couple million Android devices, but of course Google is SUPER worried about you installing an app from f-droid 🙄 www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/securit... #tech #technology #technews #google #android

OpenAI isn't getting the money they want from investors, is killing Sora, will almost double their human workforce, and is billions in the red, while banks scale back on data center investments. Can we NOW admit that massive data center cloud AI was never going to be a sustainable business model?

I waited to write my Xiaomi 17 Ultra review until we saw the new Galaxy S26 Ultra. More than just "which device is betterer" in some stupid singular benchmark, I tried to consider "which company's business model would I want to support more". youtu.be/2U8TuDc_BFs

Microslop has banned its own name on its Discord server, NVIDIA unlaunches GPU drivers again (again), and DRAM / SSD prices take down a video game archive: www.youtube.com/watch?v=y33V...

It's really fun when we see a "budget" phone brand take a few steps UP and deliver a more premium device. The Infinix Note 60 Ultra is a MONSTER gadget that embarrasses the mid-range options from Google and Samsung. youtu.be/loeTLf-YuJc

Techies and influencers get awkward (sometimes confrontational) when I openly and publicly talk about how much I dislike Samsung as a corporation. Then they go and do stuff like this, and I wonder why they aren't hated by enthusiasts more... frvr.com/blog/news/sa...

Seems like tech publications are SUPER anxious about criticizing big brands or AI, but now thanks to that complacency, their monetization is falling off a cliff while AI steals all their traffic. Well played techies! Well played! growtika.com/blog/tech-me...

Just like when folks criticize "new" features on iPhones which Androids have had for years, we should be critical of influencers hyping a Samsung feature which a smaller brand pioneered. Horizon lock IS a cool feature (it was a cool feature 5 years ago on a Vivo too)! youtube.com/shorts/QX84C...

Phones are computers, and now phones around $500 have largely passed that threshold I describe as "overkill for daily needs". Testing the new Vivo V70, we can see how it hangs against some PREMIUM expensive devices as a pocket computer! www.patreon.com/posts/by-ben...

Yeah... Samsung Unpacked (revealing the Galaxy S26) was a MASSIVE flop. Mostly just AI slop with ONE new hardware feature. youtube.com/shorts/sFMRG... Is there any reason to shop these "new" phones? #tech #technology #technews #android #geek #gadgets #youtube #video #samsung

Tech Influencers: "Uh-oh! Cant trust the HUGE batteries in a OnePlus! Better stick with brands like Samsung!" Samsung: "We're downgrading the rated number of charges on our smaller batteries (which charge slower) so you have to buy phones more frequently suckers! www.sammobile.com/2026/02/24/l...

Infinix Note 60 Pro: Why can't we get THIS phone in the USA? youtu.be/1EwxIRNjfbk You can tell I'm charmed, when I say I'll make a "light overview", and that video is still 17 minutes long. This phone is putting a MASSIVE hurt on phones that cost twice as much. Are "mid-range killers" a thing?

Vivo delivers some of the best smartphone cameras on the market today, and their mid-ranger phones are no exception! The V70 is a champ! But, I think you might be better off with the regular version this year, instead of the V70 Elite... Allow me to explain... www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCDe...
