i specifically love your videos because they are different from the others. the overall package. the commentary. the style. the flow. the topics. hell, even the poetry. your channel is unique. it sets you apart. and that is why your channel is my number one favourite tech channel ever. and hooray for more episodes of "when phones were fun"!
@@TheMrMobileYou are one of my favourite TH-camrs btw. Now I know it's not plausible but I would love a podcast ft you, just love your voice and the way you dictate stuff
Thanks for putting into words what I couldn't about what sets him apart. He does so much right making every video amazingly high quality that it's hard to even know where to begin. Every video is a pleasure to watch as it's so masterfully crafted. Mr. Mobile truly is the gold standard of tech TH-camrs.
You know the biggest appeal to your channel is the unconventional, the bump of the status quo, and your knack for doing things your way when it comes to tech and reviews. I’m happy to hear you focusing on what you want to review, versus what the industry expects you to. Also very exciting to hear When Phones Were Fun coming back. I missed that series. Keep doing what you do best Michael, and I hope you’re doing well behind the scenes as well as on camera!
It's funny; this 'leftovers' video is the one I most enjoy from this channel each year. So much better than the 'award' videos every channel now seems so compelled to release.
That teenage engineering recorder is wild and whacky and weird and I LOVE IT!!! I definitely miss the tactility of the past, even if I was just on the cusp of solid state (born 1996). I would adore a full MrMobile video on it! Keep up the great work Michael!
I jumped from iPhone to the Moto Razr Plus this year because I didn't need one app that was only on iOS anymore. I've loved every minute of it. Your review played a huge part in my decision. Keep it up!
I love MKBHD, and LTT is definitely enjoyable, but you, sir, are my favorite. Your videos are so refreshing to watch. The quality is at the same level as MKBHD (which has a much larger team), and the script is just the best. You may not have as many subscribers as others, but the tireless work and effort you put into your videos are unmatched.
I love this man Every other tech youtube seems to think all new innovation is good innovation I love his hesitancy of some features the concerns of the everyday user This is why he's my favorite That and the when phones were fun Boy do I love old tech
I loved the sound recorder, also don't you think we need LG to get some weird form factor devices ? I feel the LG Wing (which I use for media consumption) I feel we need weird so we can discover natural, sad we have more competition but like the same as all the other ones
RIP Wing. LG made so many weird choices (and, let's be honest, quite a few mediocre phones) but in retrospect they were so refreshing in their willingness to be different.
"The Sony [Xperia] One Mark Five is the best Sony has gotten offering a well-rounded phone." That must be the case, because the Xperia 5 Mark IV* I've owned for almost exactly a year (7 December 2022 purchase, discounted by almost 50%, which isn't surprising) varies from "nice looking but decidedly mediocre" to "barely usable Android handset," with frequent restarts, second-rate UI, and pocket detection that's so bad the advice on the Xperia forums is "If you have to put it in your pocket, try and make sure it's not touching anything." I wondered why Xperias never even approached LG levels of popularity, much less beyond that; now I know why. It's be incredibly hard to recommend it, and I don't think I'd get another Xperia even with a +50% discount, as long as there's any other Android handset with a headphone jack (and even then, maybe not). *Also, terrible names that make Xbox and 3DS naming conventions sound good.
You are the only tech youtuber that I left the notifications on and watch all videos, just because you’re so good. Keep it up and thanks for another year of amazing content. Really looking forward to your new more “personalized” videos and the comeback of “when phones were fun”.
I’ve been following you for a long time. All the way back in the PocketNow days. I’ve made many purchases after watching or reading your reviews and recommendations. I haven’t regretted any of them. Your videos continue to be accurate, fair, informative, professionally produced and entertaining. I think this shift will be good for you. Like you (and most likely a lot of your viewers) I have grown less interested in the never ending releases of similar hardware designs year after year. I look forward to your new content and thank you for all the work and good advice you’ve provided in the past.
Looking forward to the 2024 videos, and I'm glad to hear that you're going to focus more on videos that you want to make and that "When phones were fun" makes a comeback!
Your ebike review was one of my favourites of your recent work. Happy to hear you'll be doing more things like that! Would love to see more non-phone mobile tech like that.
I love the scripts of your videos. I love how meticulously you craft them. My interests in tech AND the English language AND the American accent mean that I find your videos absolutely engrossing. They help me improve my English too. I've been a fan of your content since your Pocket Now days.
Very excited for 2024 and your never ending nomicon on out of this world tech, Mr. Mobile! I recently worked for a bike assembly company, so your trek across the upper east coast was a perfect opener going into said job, for my insight on e-bikes, that is. Been a solid subscriber for about 5 years strong now. Cant wait to see how the "quintessential" smartphone especially changes, or digresses, within that time. Cheers to a new year! 🍾
When you started this channel in 2016, I remember I really enjoyed the concept of having the when phones were fun and also the mobile lifestyle with travel and etc. Bringing the focus on this fun stuff It's really awesome to hear
Hey Mr. Mobile I’ve been a long time viewer of yours from before you were Mr. Mobile and I’m hear to tell you, you do you man. You’ve got everything you need to stand out as much as the fine pieces of tech that you enjoy reviewing. I always find it entertaining and I learn something from your reviews especially when it’s stuff that either isn’t something that I’ll buy or something I didn’t even know existed. I’m hear for this change man you got this and I’ll still be here to support you. ❤
Not only you, but also us viewers will notice when you don't feel as excited for a product or review. Quality over Quanity anytime. Keep making videos that excite you :)
You're the only mobile YTr I enjoy listening to. I love how you prepare your script. It's like when I read my books, they do tell a story. Grow deeper Mr. Mobile.
Michael, I've been a subscriber of this channel for a few years now. Out of many other tech-focused channels I'm subscribed to, gotta say, more often than not I tend to spend my limited free time watching your videos. The reason is - it finally hit me with this video - you are a really good writer. What you do is proper quality tech journalism. Keep up the good work! And if you stumble upon this comment - I would love to hear your thoughts on why and how you use your messengers of choice. Perhaps, one day you'll make a video on that topic? 🤷♂
I am really excited for the future of your channel/work! The things you want to focus on are basically a summary of your content thatI enjoy the most, so a big thumbs up from me and wishing you the best of luck in 2024 and onwards!
"Yeah, whatever!" Seriously Michael, you are doing great work and I encourage you to follow your creative North Star. We'll always be here to root you on! Have a great holidays!
I always love your videos, but I am so happy to hear you're bringing back the series "when phones were fun." I love those videos so much!! Thx for all the good content for this year, and may 2024 be even better for you and your channel
I’m so excited for the next stage of the channel! When phones were fun and your travel experiences are my favorite part of your content, and i love to see a creator that I enjoy focusing on more authentic content. Good luck and I think you have a great plan for next year.
I enjoy your videos on stranger devices and vintage devices more than the new phones so I’m definitely looking forward to your content next year. Merry Christmas and happy holidays!
It is quite evident that during the course of the year, Mr. Mobile's mobility has created at least a 10-pound weight loss. It is easily evident between the footage from earlier in the year versus present day. Not that you needed it, Michael, but if it was intentional and you happen to care, just thought I'd throw some kudos your way. Speaking of kudos, thank you for another year of outstanding, tasteful videos, and most importantly, reviews of products where the sponsor is not the device being reviewed. That is so rare and refreshing in the tech space. A creator giving up his own potential earnings in order to bring the best, most honest content possible to us viewers. Happy Holidays Fisher.
"when phones were fun" is what got me to subscribe. glad to see it will be making a comeback! the content you want to make always ends up being the best content
You are so enticing that I couldn't close the video when you started the sponsor segment even though I wanted to. Again, idk why but you are one of the very few creators whose videos I don't watch at a faster playback speed. Kudos to being enchantingly enticing and congratulations on completing another MOBILE year!🙌🏼
This man is a true pioneer in the tech industry. Your vids are informative and inspired. Well researched and entertaining. Well done Mr Fisher!🎉 And a very Merry Christmas to you. Big fan ☃️
I'm always say, when it comes to tech reviews, Mr. Mobile will always get my personal Best in Writing. The way you write your reviews etc is so smooth, precise, easy to understand, and creative
I really like your take about the new products on the tech world. In fact, you are the only one that I care to watch when a new Iphone, Galaxy S2X, or other flagship launches. The thinghs that I prefer to see are new tech that helps people stay mobile, and cool old tech. So I appreciate that you like them too.
The videos of unique and interesting products in a bunch of segments is why you are one of my favorite creators. Can’t wait for all the lesser-known tech videos next year. BTW, the Govee light systems are very cool, I highly recommend getting it set up.
Sir, you are such a class act it is mind boggling! Keep doing what you love, I know I will enjoy all of it as I have since you went solo 7 years ago! Also you are why my current device is a Flip 5, folds are the future and I cant wait to see what 2024 brings to that space!
Whilst I appreciate your opinion, the main reason I watch this channel is because of your distinct style and flair. So do what you have to for your creativity and mental health, I'm sure the community supports you. For a suggestion on a challenge/series, I'd love to see you have to cope by relying on different kinds of tech to achieve things/your day. The bike challenge was an example of that, but also something like using Dex and portable set up for your daily work in 2024.
So happy that you'll be going back to "When Phone Were Fun" This is the main reason I started to subscribe. But all of your videos are amazing, please keep moving along and making great videos
Your thoughtfulness and desire to do more unique things instead of what everyone else is doing, is what I love about your channel. Keep the great stuff coming!
Your 2024 plan sounds great, its exactly the content I watch this channel for. Your writing style is so unique and I feel like thats only possible because you're passionate about you're reviewing, so I hope that doing what you love makes that easier!
I'm so happy to hear your 2024 plan. I agree that there are only so many things to say about phones, watches, and laptops that are iterative. Very much looking forward to more of the content that keeps me coming back to your channel. Best of luck next year and happy holidays!
I’ve said this many times to other creators. Your best videos are the ones that you enjoy making. We’re here because we loved your style of videos. So you do you! That’s what we’re here for!
It has been awhile since I have delved into one of your videos. We all are in this human family and we all know LIFE HAPPENS WETHER WE ARE READY OR NOT. I appreciate your gifting that you are able to be honest, articulate, knowledgeable and the ability to fuse these attributes into a meaningful review. IMO you are one of the best to ever do it. I am not BASHING ANYONE who are able to present specs and or display their knowledge of tech well beyond the average “JOE” like myself, rather I am presenting you to be a reviewer that even at my age 69, can understand what you are saying. I CONSIDER YOU ONE OF THE GOATS OF ALL TIME. Michael, continue to evolve as a reviewer by being no one other than the person God has made you to be. God bless you, your family and friends. Be well Mr Mobile. Take care.
The return of When Phones Were Fun is super exciting, and while I know at least initially it didn't chart super well, your E-Bike trip video was one of the most fun videos I watched all year. Keep doing your thing, you have the skills and it makes the channel a lot more interesting! Thanks for the great videos.
I've never missed any of your videos, and I'm here for whatever direction you want to take your channel, Michael. Wishing you a great 2024 ahead! Cheers! //Rick
You are totally on the right path, and your curiosity for those alternative interfaces only makes your videos that much more interesting too. The 2D rectangle won't be the i/o very much longer. Hard to say exactly what will be the next pattern, but your open-minded, playful, experimentation will stand you out from a lot of your colleagues (no offense to them). We appreciate your vision and principles for this channel. And stoked to see where you go in 2024!
I've been a long time fan, Mr. Mobile and I trust your instincts on approaching tech. Btw, you sounded a lot like Van Neistat by the end and I don't know if that was intentional. Great stuff as always, my friend.
Finally! Been waiting for this "The Leftovers" episode, I bet there's still a bunch of stuff you did not cover. Your channel is my go to for reviews. Congrats on a fantastic year of being the one and only "MrMobile" or Captain2Phones LOL! Cheers man!
Glad to hear you're choosing YOU and being mobile this upcoming year! I'll echo what so many others have said and concur with your originality (especially the When Phones Were Fun series) was what kept me coming back! Stay mobile, friend!
Thankyou for being authentic to the style and form that has been synonymous with the brand image that you have built around your channel. Thanks and Merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Love from 🦘
I'am really glad your going back to where phones were fun (really enjoyed it back when you first started your channel). Also would love more collaborations with David Logan (the unloker) I do miss you to together in videos, they were so much fun.
I know it didn't get as many views but the 100 miles bike ride was actually one of my favourites this year and encouraged me to look into getting one to ride to work which I'm currently in the process of researching for in terms of route distance parking etc... I'll miss your more common reviews as I know I always come to this channel before pulling the trigger on a device
Thanks for another year of videos! Been a fan since the PocketNow days. Yours are always a must watch because they are unique. Can't wait to see what next year brings.
United States of Whatever is an amazing song! Also think your channel is unique for what you bring to the table, your style and worldview. I love that you focus on how the tech feels and the hardware looks, at least I think it aligns with my own tastes.
Honestly, the reviews I care the least about. The weird tech and interesting hardware, talked about in a way only you can, that's why I'm here. Happy to see you focus on the stuff you want to make!
Gah, I was wondering why there hadn't been an Xperia 1 V review. I'm glad to hear your thoughts in this, it sounds like it's probably the biggest step forward for Sony in recent years.
totally support the statements about what to cover; like other commenters, always liked your fun pieces most and far more than some sort of coverage-completeness
Totally agree! Go for it. Make a travel/tech video. Or something. How you film, script, and edit in the wild. Tour Europe, giving thoughts about each country's tech.
My 1 V is the best tech I bought this year. It always keeps up with what I throw at it, and bonus points for the headphone jack. Didn't know I missed it so much !
Can't wait to see what 2024 brings your way and SUPER excited to see the return of When Phones Were Fun! That's for being an inspiration for my channel!
i miss your biking vid. we need at least just 1 more 😅 it was so relaxing but also interesting to watch. Over the years Ive always been a fan of your review style, narration and camera work
I’m really excited to see more “when phones were fun” videos. These are absolutely excellent and as someone born in the 80’s - bring back fond memories
I am really looking forward to the new crop of videos! I have an older iPhone 12 and I'm not really looking to upgrade it so the 100 mile bike trip was one of my absolute favorite videos you've done. Keep up the quality work!
![MrMobile [Michael Fisher]](http://yt3.ggpht.com/Bf8B_79jyHxP6CVnjV5WKws93l9Vxlk0d7aPmcBygTBDKzgsGrpazdJRFUrfg1sUNlo8YX8rji8=s48-c-k-c0x00ffffff-no-rj)
Hearing about more “When phones were fun” episodes are coming makes me so excited
Will 2023 finally be the year MrMobile is brave enough to undertake the Palm Pre story? Stay tuned!
Yes please those are my favorite episodes
@TheMrMobile you have two weeks left. Good luck!
Agreed, loved that series.
Eagerly waiting for it 😁
i specifically love your videos because they are different from the others.
the overall package. the commentary. the style. the flow. the topics. hell, even the poetry.
your channel is unique. it sets you apart. and that is why your channel is my number one favourite tech channel ever.
and hooray for more episodes of "when phones were fun"!
Thanks very much. After an exhausting year, the encouragement is truly appreciated!
@@TheMrMobileYou are one of my favourite TH-camrs btw. Now I know it's not plausible but I would love a podcast ft you, just love your voice and the way you dictate stuff
Came here to say this. Couldn't have put it better myself.
Thanks for putting into words what I couldn't about what sets him apart. He does so much right making every video amazingly high quality that it's hard to even know where to begin. Every video is a pleasure to watch as it's so masterfully crafted. Mr. Mobile truly is the gold standard of tech TH-camrs.
Always one of my favorites from you! I am deeply jealous of the TP-7 I have zero use but intense desire for.
Also…. YAY WHEN PHONES WERE FUN 2024!
literally how i feel about all TE products
also why not just buy it?
I would love to see you look at some super overpriced and super cool teenage engineering products! tp 7, tx 6, op 1, any of them!
You know the biggest appeal to your channel is the unconventional, the bump of the status quo, and your knack for doing things your way when it comes to tech and reviews. I’m happy to hear you focusing on what you want to review, versus what the industry expects you to. Also very exciting to hear When Phones Were Fun coming back. I missed that series. Keep doing what you do best Michael, and I hope you’re doing well behind the scenes as well as on camera!
It's funny; this 'leftovers' video is the one I most enjoy from this channel each year. So much better than the 'award' videos every channel now seems so compelled to release.
🔥🔥
That teenage engineering recorder is wild and whacky and weird and I LOVE IT!!! I definitely miss the tactility of the past, even if I was just on the cusp of solid state (born 1996). I would adore a full MrMobile video on it! Keep up the great work Michael!
It’s cool for the sake of being cool, and I love tech like that.
I jumped from iPhone to the Moto Razr Plus this year because I didn't need one app that was only on iOS anymore. I've loved every minute of it. Your review played a huge part in my decision. Keep it up!
Moto Razr is still on my list of want to try out. He definitely makes a compelling argument for the flip phones.
Bringing back "When Phones Were Fun" is the best idea ever for this channel. Thats what brought me here in the first place.
I love MKBHD, and LTT is definitely enjoyable, but you, sir, are my favorite. Your videos are so refreshing to watch. The quality is at the same level as MKBHD (which has a much larger team), and the script is just the best. You may not have as many subscribers as others, but the tireless work and effort you put into your videos are unmatched.
i think u speak righteously on behalf of all of us for the coming year... wish u good luck and as u evolve, us viewers shall too.
I love this man
Every other tech youtube seems to think all new innovation is good innovation
I love his hesitancy of some features the concerns of the everyday user
This is why he's my favorite
That and the when phones were fun
Boy do I love old tech
I loved the sound recorder, also don't you think we need LG to get some weird form factor devices ? I feel the LG Wing (which I use for media consumption) I feel we need weird so we can discover natural, sad we have more competition but like the same as all the other ones
RIP Wing. LG made so many weird choices (and, let's be honest, quite a few mediocre phones) but in retrospect they were so refreshing in their willingness to be different.

Looking forward to the 2024 videos, and I'm glad to hear that you're going to focus more on videos that you want to make and that "When phones were fun" makes a comeback!

When you started this channel in 2016, I remember I really enjoyed the concept of having the when phones were fun and also the mobile lifestyle with travel and etc. Bringing the focus on this fun stuff It's really awesome to hear
Yes! more vintage tech, interesting modern tech, and stories you want to tell, sounds really good.
The e-bike review was easily my favorite video of the year. Incredibly excited to get more content like that!
Hey Mr. Mobile I’ve been a long time viewer of yours from before you were Mr. Mobile and I’m hear to tell you, you do you man.

I really like how you do your content. There are many others tech TH-camrs creating the same content, but you do it in your way and it's amazing!
Not only you, but also us viewers will notice when you don't feel as excited for a product or review. Quality over Quanity anytime. Keep making videos that excite you :)
I'm here to watch whatever content you publish. It's always fascinating, and educational. Keep up the good work!
It's been maybe 10 years I have been watching you're production and with an constant pleasure and amazement at the quality. Thank you!
I really enjoyed that 100-mile trip you did earlier this year. Definitely looking forward to more content in that style.
You're the only mobile YTr I enjoy listening to. I love how you prepare your script. It's like when I read my books, they do tell a story.
Grow deeper Mr. Mobile.
Michael, I've been a subscriber of this channel for a few years now. Out of many other tech-focused channels I'm subscribed to, gotta say, more often than not I tend to spend my limited free time watching your videos.

Only on the Sony Experia portion but as always, classy move on reviewing it in the interest of fairness. Your work is so appreciated ❤
I also wish more devices looked more unique like that beautifully designed recorder. Ty for the videos Mr. Mobile, and happy holidays!
I always love your videos, but I am so happy to hear you're bringing back the series "when phones were fun." I love those videos so much!! Thx for all the good content for this year, and may 2024 be even better for you and your channel
I’m so excited for the next stage of the channel! When phones were fun and your travel experiences are my favorite part of your content, and i love to see a creator that I enjoy focusing on more authentic content. Good luck and I think you have a great plan for next year.

I love the fact that you're still so genuine. You don't go along with the mainstream bullshits that other large youtubers have fallen into
Happy to hear you sir. Always a pleasure to watch your videos, Thanks for making it and let's evolve.
"when phones were fun" is what got me to subscribe. glad to see it will be making a comeback! the content you want to make always ends up being the best content
You are so enticing that I couldn't close the video when you started the sponsor segment even though I wanted to. Again, idk why but you are one of the very few creators whose videos I don't watch at a faster playback speed. Kudos to being enchantingly enticing and congratulations on completing another MOBILE year!🙌🏼
This man is a true pioneer in the tech industry. Your vids are informative and inspired. Well researched and entertaining. Well done Mr Fisher!🎉 And a very Merry Christmas to you. Big fan ☃️
I'm always say, when it comes to tech reviews, Mr. Mobile will always get my personal Best in Writing. The way you write your reviews etc is so smooth, precise, easy to understand, and creative
13:27 That is great news.The _When Phones Were Fun_ video series is how I found this channel years ago. I miss it. I'm happy it is coming back.

Excited for the news man. That was my favorite stuff from you this year. Let's go!
I’ve said this many times to other creators. Your best videos are the ones that you enjoy making. We’re here because we loved your style of videos. So you do you! That’s what we’re here for!
It has been awhile since I have delved into one of your videos. We all are in this human family and we all know LIFE HAPPENS WETHER WE ARE READY OR NOT. I appreciate your gifting that you are able to be honest, articulate, knowledgeable and the ability to fuse these attributes into a meaningful review. IMO you are one of the best to ever do it. I am not BASHING ANYONE who are able to present specs and or display their knowledge of tech well beyond the average “JOE” like myself, rather I am presenting you to be a reviewer that even at my age 69, can understand what you are saying. I CONSIDER YOU ONE OF THE GOATS OF ALL TIME. Michael, continue to evolve as a reviewer by being no one other than the person God has made you to be. God bless you, your family and friends. Be well Mr Mobile. Take care.
The return of When Phones Were Fun is super exciting, and while I know at least initially it didn't chart super well, your E-Bike trip video was one of the most fun videos I watched all year. Keep doing your thing, you have the skills and it makes the channel a lot more interesting! Thanks for the great videos.
I wait for your videos on new techquite frequently but as someone who likes hardware as well I understand the shift. looking forward to the evolution
Awesome to hear you'll be doing more "When Phones Were Fun", it's how I found your channel and love that series!
I've never missed any of your videos, and I'm here for whatever direction you want to take your channel, Michael. Wishing you a great 2024 ahead! Cheers! //Rick
Awesome once more. Excited for 2024 Michael, your plan is bang on. When phones were fun.has to be one of my all time faves
You are totally on the right path, and your curiosity for those alternative interfaces only makes your videos that much more interesting too. The 2D rectangle won't be the i/o very much longer. Hard to say exactly what will be the next pattern, but your open-minded, playful, experimentation will stand you out from a lot of your colleagues (no offense to them).
We appreciate your vision and principles for this channel. And stoked to see where you go in 2024!
I've been a long time fan, Mr. Mobile and I trust your instincts on approaching tech.
Btw, you sounded a lot like Van Neistat by the end and I don't know if that was intentional. Great stuff as always, my friend.
Finally! Been waiting for this "The Leftovers" episode, I bet there's still a bunch of stuff you did not cover. Your channel is my go to for reviews. Congrats on a fantastic year of being the one and only "MrMobile" or Captain2Phones LOL! Cheers man!
I am happy too see you take this course in 2024. I am not surprised you, of all, took such a bold step. We will watch every episode.
Glad to hear you're choosing YOU and being mobile this upcoming year! I'll echo what so many others have said and concur with your originality (especially the When Phones Were Fun series) was what kept me coming back! Stay mobile, friend!
May 2024 finally be the Year of the Palm Pre video!!! I've been waiting since you started when phones were fun
Great video. Your reviews are exemplary, especially the ones about old phones. It's good that you're using the tech while traveling.
Dude, we're brothers from another mother; I miss unusual hardware, so I cannot wait to see what you have coming next year. Good luck!
Great year-end video! Hope you have a great 2024 🎉
Love your new direction. Adventure and review what you like! Excited to see the 2024 videos!
Nice to see You still will do You thing! That's why I like the channel. More when phones are fun! We need that whackyness back!
Great video as always.....Andddddd (PLEASE)I miss when phones were fun episodes😢....so thank you ahead of time for bringing them back.😊
Thankyou for being authentic to the style and form that has been synonymous with the brand image that you have built around your channel. Thanks and Merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Love from 🦘
I'am really glad your going back to where phones were fun (really enjoyed it back when you first started your channel). Also would love more collaborations with David Logan (the unloker) I do miss you to together in videos, they were so much fun.
I know it didn't get as many views but the 100 miles bike ride was actually one of my favourites this year and encouraged me to look into getting one to ride to work which I'm currently in the process of researching for in terms of route distance parking etc...
I'll miss your more common reviews as I know I always come to this channel before pulling the trigger on a device
Thanks for another year of videos! Been a fan since the PocketNow days. Yours are always a must watch because they are unique. Can't wait to see what next year brings.
United States of Whatever is an amazing song! Also think your channel is unique for what you bring to the table, your style and worldview. I love that you focus on how the tech feels and the hardware looks, at least I think it aligns with my own tastes.
Very happy to see you'll be focusing more on stuff that interests you! Looking forward to your videos in 2024!
Man I absolutely love teenage engineering hardware design. If only there weren’t so expensive (or if I actually had a need for them lol)
That is awesome Mr. Mobile. I think your personal/specific projects are very interesting to watch.
Honestly, the reviews I care the least about. The weird tech and interesting hardware, talked about in a way only you can, that's why I'm here. Happy to see you focus on the stuff you want to make!
Always a joy watching your videos regardless of what they are about, all the content is fantastic and the production is always a cut above the rest
Gah, I was wondering why there hadn't been an Xperia 1 V review. I'm glad to hear your thoughts in this, it sounds like it's probably the biggest step forward for Sony in recent years.
Your "when phones were fun" series was originally what made me subscribe to you, I'm so excited to hear it's coming back!
The only TH-camr I know that explains his sponsorship with the featured brands. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for being different with your content. I truly appreciate it and enjoy it a lot.
totally support the statements about what to cover; like other commenters, always liked your fun pieces most and far more than some sort of coverage-completeness
Can't wait for another year of your great vids!
Keep being you, and I'll keep watching
Totally agree! Go for it. Make a travel/tech video. Or something. How you film, script, and edit in the wild. Tour Europe, giving thoughts about each country's tech.
My 1 V is the best tech I bought this year.
It always keeps up with what I throw at it, and bonus points for the headphone jack. Didn't know I missed it so much !
Can't wait to see what 2024 brings your way and SUPER excited to see the return of When Phones Were Fun! That's for being an inspiration for my channel!
i miss your biking vid. we need at least just 1 more 😅 it was so relaxing but also interesting to watch. Over the years Ive always been a fan of your review style, narration and camera work
I’m really excited to see more “when phones were fun” videos. These are absolutely excellent and as someone born in the 80’s - bring back fond memories
I am really looking forward to the new crop of videos! I have an older iPhone 12 and I'm not really looking to upgrade it so the 100 mile bike trip was one of my absolute favorite videos you've done. Keep up the quality work!
That's why I love your channel! You do the things you want to do! Keep it up!
