    [THE WEIRDEST PHONES OF 2021]
    Folks, let’s be honest: you knew I wasn’t gonna do a rundown of regular phones. And as much as I’d have liked to do a best foldables list … well, firstly, not every video can be a foldable video; and second, I think we all know which foldables would have won. So to close out 2021, whaddya say we get weird?
    Join me for a celebration of weird tech as I go hands-on with four of the oddest phones of 2021: the CAT S22 Flip; the Unihertz Tick Tock; the Microsoft Surface Duo 2; and the Leica Leitz Phone 1!

      Well it's based on the Aquos R6 (the other guy already pointed that out) which came in the first half of this year & was one of the first (and still only one) to feature 1-240Hz LTPO display along with the 1" sensor & the beloved 3.5mm HP Jack ofc!!

    The tick tock phone is actually an interesting concept, if you think about the way we as a culture communicate attention, focus, and respect - for example, laying a phone face down, which usually mutes it or puts it on do not disturb, so as to show that we are paying attention to a conversation or a meeting in a room or whatnot. Laying this phone face down still allows you to have the benefits of a smartwatch, where you get a discrete, simplified version of alerts, but for people who do not physically enjoy wearing a watch.

  • @toshineon
    @toshineon 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    That CAT phone is like a gift from above for me. I've always wanted something reminiscent of a mid-00's cell phone, but running Android. It's not that I want to go basic or disconnect, I just don't have a preference for the "one giant screen" form factor that dominates 99% of the market. And regarding the question posed at the Unihertz, the question isn't "why?", it's "why not?".

    Definitely would like a review on the Leica Phone, and one thought, why not take a bit of a crazy "road trip", Alaska. Right now Fairbanks is an absolute winter wonderland, and with the storms we are getting, great photography. Plus, there are 2 big tests/challenges that Alaska can throw at a device that not many places can, extreme low light, and extreme cold. One comparison that I do testing different equipment is battery length "warm", and cold. Plus, you would not believe some of the crazy quirks that extreme cold can bring out in a device of any sorts!!!!
