I mean I agree on some Points and I too agree its in many ways a overpriced undercooked phone but the Note 5 comparison is absolute nonsense.
I'm the first to recommend second hand flagships but the Note 5 is maybe a fun secondary phone but definitly not daily drivable and recommendig it to people who don't know what they will get themselfes into is criminal.
Like just the fact that he implies that the Note 5 SoC is comparable in Performance to the Fairphone is braindead. You are comparing a Cortex A57 to a A78. There are 6 generations between them.
Also what are these doofusus in "The Lab" doing. Would it really have been that hard to pull up some common CPU Bound tasks like rendering websites, compressing files, ... . App opening Tests are often limited by Network speeds and IO Speed and tell you very little about the in App Performance.
They just throw out any random shit and people click and watch it. LTTs quality dropped years ago when they got too big. It's about views now, not respectable content.
100%. I don't get how people still enjoy this slop. He was alright 6 or 7 years ago but now it feels like mass media thrown together crap. Same as well for MKBHD honestly. Dude is reviewing nothing and always just sharing first experiences.
Yes MKBHD is the same. Just loads of shill content to keep brands happy.
Billionares paying millionarea to promot their wares to their wage slaves.
