It honestly shocks me the we still go through this process every year. Almost as much as it shocks me when people think the yearly product release cycle is meant as a serving suggestion.
who’s telling anyone to upgrade every year. there’s a big majority of people who buys an apple thingamajig and keeps it for years. and it’s good for the used market as well.
I don’t understand people who change their phones every year. Or people who buy new cars every year or two either. All my tech and vehicles are preowned, and at least 5+ years old. They’ve got all the same features as the new crap, and they work well for what I need them for. At this point upgrading them would just be more money on one thing and one thing only- vanity.
you don't like fishing your phone out of your pocket, accidentally switching the content you were listening to, and then having to listen to 10 seconds of an ad before you can switch back?
Exactly. No bezels is one of those harmful trends I don't want to plague every phone, right next to curved screens. Thankfully for me Sony isn't doing that, they may be slow in upgrading their phones but that's a good thing for features like this because they're seen as unimportant. Another thing I miss is the lack of front cameras because nowadays they just put a hole in your screen. My previous phone had this on the side and it bothered me. Thankfully, again, Sony isn't doing that, they put a larger bezel on top to house the front camera with unobstructed screens. Seriously, their phones aren't the best of the best and newer releases are overpriced, but if you want a modern phone on an older design consider an Xperia. Their camera bumps are also tiny compared to a lot of phones now. They also have nail-removable sd card slots and a 3.5mm headphone jack on top of being waterproof.
Reminds me of the classic meme of the guy taking a photo of a camera then escalating into more levels of how he took each shot that took the shot before it
@@Untitled_Pribor Ah, when phones weren't powerful enough to keep up 30 Hz recording and couldn't use wallpapers. I have an iPhone 3G somewhere, was a fun phone until the charging circuit became janky and I stomped it and messed up the screen cause it refused to jailbreak. Man, I was one angry fucker.
I had an old 11 pro that was my moms old work phone before they got her a new one, that thing worked perfectly until about january when i dropped it (in the case) and the back glass shattered
Legit bought a 12 mini off someone for super cheap, battery still above 80% screen is flawless and I paid 1/10th the cost of a new iPhone here, thing works like a champ still.
For me it was the graininess of the video that told me when the camera was different XD they all had some graininess but all different kinds or flavors if you will. funny enough the cleanest looking one was the iphone 7 but thats probably more to do with the studio lights and that its his dedicated filming spot. The new max wasnt bad but its zooming (he was saying lens changing i guess) was horrific.
Hi Wade Nixon, I wonder if I can use your channel idea, for my own use it is fine if not but your comedy and style of getting nuggets and demolishing them is just perfect, thanks.
i honestly don’t understand the people who switch phones every 1-2 years. like if it gets broken beyond repair then obviously you get another one but besides that there is no reason to get a 700$ phone every year, especially considering that most people dont even use half of the features available on that “pro model”. i’m still rocking my iphone 8 and i’ll only change it when i can no longer access some apps (it can happen, it happened to my iphone 5) or if it dies completely
I think some phone manufacturers have return service, in which you can trade in your old phone for the newest one for a fraction of the original price. I know Samsung did this; I don't know about Apple, though, probably not.
Carriers subsidize it for us every 24 or 36 months here in the USA. I’ll gladly take a new free phone every couple of years, even if just for the new battery and warranty.
Same! I'm a professional photographer and impressed with camera phones now! I'll never personally shoot a professional gig with my phone but if I go on vacation, I'm not going to bring the full setup like "maybe my 70-400 will come in handy!", nah, phone is perfect!
Pff, I'd rather just get a small, cropped sensor mirrorless camera and stick with mid-tier phones. Cheaper and lasts way longer than a flagship phone with the "good" cameras. Plus, even a budget mirrorless will beat the snot out of the best phones and doesn't rely on heavily processed trickery to get your picture.
The only thing I'm waiting for, and I thought Red was going to do it, is for the camera bezel to be replaceable. Imagine being able swap your own preferred camera mount to it to use pro lenses. If we could get mechanical zoom on a modern phone, you almost wouldn't need a DSLR.
Dank, something you can do is configure a phone using apple configuator, it takes a bit of time but you can configure it to either be in only one app, or only allow certain apps and disable features! This would be great to literally disable everything, have photos the settings app and the camera and that's it.
@@wileysneak no I'm pretty sure it's just a free mode to help old people use new phones, I've seen people use it to simplify it and make their phones work phones
@@bizzy1960yeah you can make a configuration profile for free and apply it to as many devices as you want. I have a couple of iPads in my house which I use as smart displays and they're set up to be as locked down as possible
genuinely, I hope whoever invented the concept of how all product boxes have to be this cardboard with 0.1micron fitment that takes a full ass minute of waiting for the pressure to equalize before you can get your junk out as if it's an airlock, i hope that person saw the way Wade opened this box and cried themselves to sleep
it's an advertising tactic to make you feel suspense during the unboxing and make them more rigid and feel more high quality and expensive, it makes you want to keep the box because it feels wrong to destroy or throw something like that away. i agree with you though!
The camera he is currently using cannot record in 4K at 60 FPS. It only records in 4K30, 1080p60, 1080p30 FPS, or 720p30. I would rather use 1080p60 over 4K30 any day.
Yeah I loved my camcorder 20 years ago. My mother in law has a significantly newer one that records to a memory card. Though of course you can't just chuck it in your pocket it is still pretty small and light.
I think Z flip is kinda getting that vibe in design, can use like portable camcorder tho a lot more portable these days n decent quality videos tho not so nostalgic
@@Wonderland2097 I had one of those and it was not good, no SD slot, no headphone jack, locked bootloader, no USB-c video out, no removable battery. So it lacks most features of a basic smartphone, not to mention camcorder features, even my 18 year old Sony has optical zoom, night vision, swapable battery, microphone input, good build quality. and honestly it still has pretty decent video for a lower resolution camera, it's clear and sharp for 480p video. But I do agree that they could make flip phone into a great video camera if they actually tried, although not with the folding screen as that failed in just over a year on mine, so not getting one of those again.
the fact that even in the places they're doing USB-C it's at *2.0 speeds* from the freaking 2000s, unless you pony up for the pro, in 2024, is absolutely criminal. It drives me insane!
Fuck you and USB-C. The only reason I picked up an SE3 recently instead of anything newer is because it was the only one without that god awful port. USB-C is a scam, the speed is not worth it for the casual user given the fragility and just shit user experience. I was an Android guy all my life but switching to USB-C made me ditch it.
@@plushifoxed I don't get it. Are people actually connecting their phones to their computers as a second hard drive or something? AFAIC, it's a charging port, with maybe a bit of service mode utility thrown in. What else would you even do with it these days? I don't think I've ever connected my iPhone 12 Amateur to anything but a USB power source of some kind. It could be USB 1.0 for all I care. Like eight people that watch this video might use it for filming something and want to transfer ProRes footage around. For those people, there's a legit reason to consider the Pro.
So, the iphone 16 is nearly the same as the iphone 15, which is nearly the same as the iphone 14, which is nearly the same as the iphone 13, which is nearly the same as the iphone 12, which is nearly the same as the iphone 11, which is nearly the same as the iphone Xs , which is nearly the same as the iphone X. Just add a better processor, slight facelift, better screen and camera. And the price tag.
@@GreySatyr I've got a 14 Pro Max, Which I upgraded from an 11 Pro. Probably will wait till the 17 or 18 comes out, still got a tonne of mileage on the 14 left to go!
Sure, but the iPhone 16 is a vast improvement over the iPhone 10. You can say the same about every OEM, but nobody cares about them. I know one person who still uses a Galaxy S10E, and someone else who only just upgraded from a Galaxy S9 this year to a different phone. Nothing noteworthy is happening anywhere. People need to make peace with the fact that phones now are good enough that you don't need to buy new. Besides the battery degradation, you can buy a Pixel 6, Galaxy S21, iPhone 13, without really worrying about it being useless in 1 year.
i'm eyeing the 16 Pro for its smaller size, same camera modules as the 16 Pro Max, but mostly the upgraded microphone array ... Apple know how to drip-feed this stuff to us
I love my iphone se, touch ID is a million times better then face ID, I really hope they keep making the SE line because I never want to let go of my good ol' touch ID
@@adre2194 Nope, they haven't even tried an under-screen scanner. Only hope we have is when they make all buttons like the camera slider the power key gets one.
This is why the mini iphone is the best iphone ever, its the same size as the old 5’s but its got the modern screen, better cameras, and it can still fit in your pocket
Yeah sure but the difference is quite minimal. It's in-between the current and first gen SEs. Combined with how much bigger the screen is despite it the tradeoff is worth it.
Just gotta say.. Garbage Time has quickly become my favorite automotive channel. Was literally dying at the nutella.. and poor, poor James.. What other hell can we put him through?
Even more proof you don’t need it (even as a camera): I’m still using my 2019 iPad as my main camera, and it looks amazing! I use a 2016 Lenovo Thinkpad as my primary computer! I’m using an iPhone 4s as my main smartphone and it… works…
this same mentality also applies to "real cameras" my daily driver is a panasonic LX-100 a compact camera from Sep 2014, 10 years ago! and it still takes great photos because I don't do high speed sports photography or astro photography or anything like that that really pushes the technical limits of the sensor or lens. I just take landscapes and urban photos, at human scales, that has honestly been a solved problem since the 60's. so my comparatively fancy camera with ultra high iso compared to film or my one finger optical zoom control so I never need to swap a lens out. it's all just quality of life features; most people that use a camera really could use old equipment and some good technique and still get amazing shots.
Yeah i also got a sony cybershot 10 years old, and whenever i go touring i still use that, over phones. I've got a vivo T2 pro, known for their camera, and it still takes worse photos than the cybershot.
I say: *"Old cheap phones are already so good, and already so good that I only by old cheap phones."* Every year I upgrade my phone to a newer "old cheap phone" for $200 and add the previous one to my collection: > Apple iPhone SE (2016 - The OG) > Droid Turbo 2 (Moto X Force) > Huawei P20 Pro > LG V50 ThinQ > Moto Z Play > Moto Z2 Play > Moto Z4 > Oppo Reno 10X Zoom > Realme X2 Pro > Sony Xperia 10 IV > Umidigi Power 7 MAX My current daily: Google Pixel 5a
@@handlemoniumbro i do the same. I also very much prefer the motorized pop out camera design over the hole punches. I rarely use the front camera so just get it outta the way please and give me near zero bezels. Theyre getting a lot harder to come by these days though
@@handlemoniumAlso currently on a Pixel 5a I got second hand for $200 a year and a half ago. Was thinking "Let's see what the 8a looks like and maybe I'll switch." Nope! Wasn't really feeling the design nor the Pixel 9. Maybe the 9a, 10 or 10a will change that? At this point, probably not. I'll keep my 5a until it dies completely. I'm not ready to let go of the headphone jack yet!
Maybe it's an age thing but i slowly care less and less about phones, their "features" and tech in general, and my smasnug xcover pro with its replacable battery and headphone jack from 2021 still works well enough despite me duct-taping the volume buttons back in, also since quite some time really every phone, even the budget ones "just work" so in my opinion spending more than 400€ for a phone these days is just nonsense. Greetings from Austria.
When we were younger the leaps and bounds phones were improving every year was genuinely incredible. These days the phones we have now already do just about everything we need them to, so the only "improvements" are silly gimmicks and privacy violations lol
I think we kinda got everything we need in a phone now. As long as the phone can last long enough and I can access the internet that's enough for a usable phone nowadays
Honestly after the smasnug note 9 came out, i stopped caring about phones. It had every single feature - minus high refresh rate screen. It was perfect
Bit late but, I'm a film student grad and optics nerd and just to say the zoom lens you have on your Sony is absolutly nowhere near the optical quality and sharpness that you could get from the very best sony lenses avialable. A more basic zoom lens from the general master range would optically be significantly better. Theres websites out there such as optical limits that explains optical characteristics of lenses and tests a whole host of different lenses. Of course I know you most likely have more than one lens its still good to know. Would also be nice to see the sony be used for main channel vids, I understand you want to use the iphone as camera equipment now but I wouldnt rely on it in the long term (please note I come from a classically taught videography perspective). I've used DSLRs and mirroless camera for short films and its insane how good they've become. To be honest an iphone 10 years in the future will most likely still be no match for todays full frame camera. Iphones have their time and place, and I'm glad that it works for you and that you enjoy using them.
Yo I got a sony alpha 100 from my father. He got himself a new one It is hella fun doing adjustments to settings and seeing what happens to the photo. It makes it much more fun and worth getting a good shot compared to how easy it is for somone unexperienced like me to make „good“ photos with an iphone. Anyways idk if you can help me but i was wondering if I really get more invested and interested into photography, do you think getting lenses for the alpha 100 makes more sense or going for an newer model (without going in debt) because of evolution in technology?
A dedicated camera button? Amazing! Apple has finally caught up with my old Samsung Intensity II from 2010, though the new iPhone still doesn't have a slide out keyboard
I love how in the EU the AI features won't be available until further notice because of privacy laws, so this phone has a huge chunk of "features" missing. (I'd be looking for the off button anyway if I were to actually get one)
Sony still puts headphone jacks and SD slots in their flagships. They even record 4K120 out of all three rear cameras and have a physical shutter button.
Yea, USB C only offers bit perfect music vastly better. Current Bluetooth is completely indistinguishable for 99.9% of the population from anything else. And a tiny dingle can make normal headphones usable on USB C. Headphone jack is definitely needed.
i have the 14 Pro Max, and i still dont feel the need to upgrade, infact i didnt feel the need to upgrade way back on the 12 pro max, only reason i did upgrade to the 14 was cause my battery expanded, there are really people who upgrade their phone each generation and its pointless and honestly id be pretty embarressed telling people i do that.
@@Davey97 I can’t do it at Apple because the case isn’t in perfect condition so they deny doing any repairs, and I don’t want to risk it by going to a third party to do it, as that’s how my last phone got bricked
I still have an 8 :D it’s what I’m typing on right now. She’s a bit crunchy sometimes, need to restart things and the battery is of course tired, and the charging port is a bit worn and doesn’t grab plugs like it used to, but it still works good. I’m worried about upgrading to a new phone. All these wrap-around-the-edges screens and massive chonkers have me and my small hands worried :c
Ever since Apple released the iPhone 15, I felt it was weird because it came in quite early in my opinion. I thought Apple would release their phones every 2 years, but Apple started releasing after a year or so
What i like to do is buy flagship (mostly samsung notes) and use them for 6 to 7 years. Next month or two im getting s24 ultra, which will be perfect with its 7 years of software updates:3
Absolute perfect explanation of what i do, you do, and anyone that don't need to professionally work with something a new flagship is offering should do
That’s me basically. I’m gonna get a 16 pro because there’s a marginal difference between a 16 and a 16 pro once you get to that price point, I’m gonna use the LiDAR, and I’m gonna keep it for 5-6 years.
@@Ir0nFrog the difference is USB 2.0... which... That's awful, that Apple has done USB 2.0 on a flagship phone from 2024. 💀 (16 and 16 Plus USB 2.0 only).
The SEs are heroes. So glad Wade shouted out the SE3, it really is amazing that Apple keep making them. As my corporate worker phone, it is simply perfect for what it needs to be.
I’ve loved my SE. I haven’t been a fan of the lack of a home button, and I love the form factor. Its smaller size is more comfortable to me, and the super sturdy cases I use beef it up anyways. All I need is a camera that captures the dumb things my friends and I do, so I’ll keep getting the SE as long as they make them.
I upgraded from a 12 pro max, and thats only because it had a shattered back screen, broken charge port, 80% battery capacity, and I still got $800 trade in for it. I would have just kept it otherwise.
I've been watching you while I was doing my GCSEs, Im in my 2nd year of uni now and getting my apple tech certification at my work. You truly are an inspiration.
Seems to me like you got the wrong camera for the job. Phone in camera cage... weird to me to make a phone into a camera with extra steps, but I will be here for the quarterly cam/phone update!
i dont disagree with the take of "phone cameras are good cameras too" i just think that a phone camera and a standalone camera have different usecases and design principles. phone cameras are very much about flow and ease of use, which is amazing. but a standalone is more about control. sure its got higher quality but the biggest part is the control you have over it, but more control also means more work and more hands-on things
I am totally with you on the phone thing... My first smartphone was an iPhone 6 (which I bought when the iPhone 8 was new), and I only got a new phone once it did the iPhone 6 thing and folded like an origami paper. That's when I got my - then only 1 year old - 12 Mini, which I'm using to this day and will keep using until it breaks. I don't need the newest phone, as long as it works I'm fine with my mini rectangle.
I've been saying for years that almost nobody needs a flagship phone. I have a mid range phone of the last gen LG made. Good build quality and good enough specs. I have had this phone for 2 years now and honestly Nothing I do on it even lags or stutters. Genuinely what do you do on your phone that a 3 or 5 year old phone can't do at this point.
I’ve had the SE2020 since new and have no plans on upgrading. It’ll get new back glass and a battery and continue to be my daily. Still love this phone.
As a user of a iPhone SE for about 2 years, I can tell you my biggest gripes with it are 1. Screen to body ratio is absolutely awful by today's standards. The size of the phone as a whole is great, but the screen size isn't good. 2. Lightning. All of my other devices use USB-C, it sucks having to carry another cable just for one device. 3. It tends to get hot, like the cooling isn't nearly enough for the SoC. 4. Battery life isn't the best. The battery is a fine size, but the SoC is much less efficient that modern iPhones. 5. The speakers are really not as loud as they could be. However, there are some good things, like 1. It's still getting updates. 2. It's still reasonably fast. 3. Fingerprint reader. 4. It does have 5g. 5. It can do 4K30 (not 4K60 btw)
I really agree with you on the "why would you want better?" thing. I just got an Android model released late last year for *200 CAD.* It has a thumbprint sensor, a long battery, a camera that can do 50MP, and enough RAM to let me switch between apps without needing to reload any of them. It's so good, I can't see why I'd ever need better?
People on the internet: “OOOOOOOOH DONT YOU WANT THE APPLE INTELLIGENCE GUNK???” Me with a 15 Plus: it doesn’t do my banking for me automatically so no, plus Siri is still garbage no matter what you dress it up in
I currently have an iPhone 13 that is on its way to borking it, and am getting a 16 Pro in November. I like my hard to run mobile games and insane amount of photos. I'm getting to a point where the 13 is just not doing what I need it to, but I'm also one of the few people that likes playing really intensive mobile games, and it was run into the ground by being my main device in general for a while there.

I wish Apple had classic iPhone refresh options as such: iPhone Classic (one camera, up to 256gb); and iPhone Classic Pro (two cameras, standard and zoom, up to 512gb). Thumbprint sensor, headphone jack, standard features, because it’s classic.
"I bought a camera" I was waiting for that. That's the exact reason I'll be upgrading. My current 14 pro is a perfectly cromulent twitter and subsonic client, but a better camera will always draw me in.
I loved my old iPhone 7 so much (2020-2024) I had to change it cause of the battery literally dropping to 10% after 20 minutes, now i have an iPhone XS from 2018 (7 years ago) and it still works great-

@@mromutt it does swap what lens it records out of when it reaches a certain point in zooming, you can clearly see the offset.
Hi Wade Nixon, I wonder if I can use your channel idea, for my own use it is fine if not but your comedy and style of getting nuggets and demolishing them is just perfect, thanks.
i honestly don’t understand the people who switch phones every 1-2 years. like if it gets broken beyond repair then obviously you get another one but besides that there is no reason to get a 700$ phone every year, especially considering that most people dont even use half of the features available on that “pro model”. i’m still rocking my iphone 8 and i’ll only change it when i can no longer access some apps (it can happen, it happened to my iphone 5) or if it dies completely
I get bored quick, thats why
Filling a hole. Some do it with drugs, some with food, some with stuff. It happens.
@@meowritzgetting bored is *really* not the best thing to spend 600 dollars over
I think some phone manufacturers have return service, in which you can trade in your old phone for the newest one for a fraction of the original price. I know Samsung did this; I don't know about Apple, though, probably not.
Carriers subsidize it for us every 24 or 36 months here in the USA. I’ll gladly take a new free phone every couple of years, even if just for the new battery and warranty.
As a photographer, I fully endorse phone cameras. The versatility, the quality, ease of use, I could go on and on but I think it speaks for itself.
Same! I'm a professional photographer and impressed with camera phones now! I'll never personally shoot a professional gig with my phone but if I go on vacation, I'm not going to bring the full setup like "maybe my 70-400 will come in handy!", nah, phone is perfect!
Do go on I want to know more please
Pff, I'd rather just get a small, cropped sensor mirrorless camera and stick with mid-tier phones. Cheaper and lasts way longer than a flagship phone with the "good" cameras. Plus, even a budget mirrorless will beat the snot out of the best phones and doesn't rely on heavily processed trickery to get your picture.
Please do go on
The only thing I'm waiting for, and I thought Red was going to do it, is for the camera bezel to be replaceable. Imagine being able swap your own preferred camera mount to it to use pro lenses. If we could get mechanical zoom on a modern phone, you almost wouldn't need a DSLR.
Dank, something you can do is configure a phone using apple configuator, it takes a bit of time but you can configure it to either be in only one app, or only allow certain apps and disable features! This would be great to literally disable everything, have photos the settings app and the camera and that's it.

sounds like a love story for camcorders. Easy to hold one handed, fast power crash zoom, and small sensors that look great in great light.
Indeed, camcorders are awesome!
Yeah I loved my camcorder 20 years ago. My mother in law has a significantly newer one that records to a memory card. Though of course you can't just chuck it in your pocket it is still pretty small and light.
I think Z flip is kinda getting that vibe in design, can use like portable camcorder tho a lot more portable these days n decent quality videos tho not so nostalgic
@@Wonderland2097 I had one of those and it was not good, no SD slot, no headphone jack, locked bootloader, no USB-c video out, no removable battery. So it lacks most features of a basic smartphone, not to mention camcorder features, even my 18 year old Sony has optical zoom, night vision, swapable battery, microphone input, good build quality. and honestly it still has pretty decent video for a lower resolution camera, it's clear and sharp for 480p video. But I do agree that they could make flip phone into a great video camera if they actually tried, although not with the folding screen as that failed in just over a year on mine, so not getting one of those again.
I'm very tempted to go with Asus just because they're making decent phones with the headphone jack
What the? 1. Gamers nexus made a video about their warranty and 2. Asus makes phones?
Biggest problem with the SE. No USB-C. The fact Apple is selling phones in 2024 without USB-C should be illegal in and of itself.
the fact that even in the places they're doing USB-C it's at *2.0 speeds* from the freaking 2000s, unless you pony up for the pro, in 2024, is absolutely criminal. It drives me insane!
Fuck you and USB-C. The only reason I picked up an SE3 recently instead of anything newer is because it was the only one without that god awful port. USB-C is a scam, the speed is not worth it for the casual user given the fragility and just shit user experience. I was an Android guy all my life but switching to USB-C made me ditch it.
@@plushifoxed most phones have relatively slow USB speeds irrc. Though idk about the flagship average
@@plushifoxed I don't get it. Are people actually connecting their phones to their computers as a second hard drive or something?

Sure, but the iPhone 16 is a vast improvement over the iPhone 10. You can say the same about every OEM, but nobody cares about them. I know one person who still uses a Galaxy S10E, and someone else who only just upgraded from a Galaxy S9 this year to a different phone. Nothing noteworthy is happening anywhere. People need to make peace with the fact that phones now are good enough that you don't need to buy new. Besides the battery degradation, you can buy a Pixel 6, Galaxy S21, iPhone 13, without really worrying about it being useless in 1 year.

Even more proof you don’t need it (even as a camera): I’m still using my 2019 iPad as my main camera, and it looks amazing! I use a 2016 Lenovo Thinkpad as my primary computer! I’m using an iPhone 4s as my main smartphone and it… works…
this same mentality also applies to "real cameras" my daily driver is a panasonic LX-100 a compact camera from Sep 2014, 10 years ago! and it still takes great photos because I don't do high speed sports photography or astro photography or anything like that that really pushes the technical limits of the sensor or lens. I just take landscapes and urban photos, at human scales, that has honestly been a solved problem since the 60's. so my comparatively fancy camera with ultra high iso compared to film or my one finger optical zoom control so I never need to swap a lens out. it's all just quality of life features; most people that use a camera really could use old equipment and some good technique and still get amazing shots.
Yeah i also got a sony cybershot 10 years old, and whenever i go touring i still use that, over phones. I've got a vivo T2 pro, known for their camera, and it still takes worse photos than the cybershot.
This is especially true for interchangeable lens cameras since the lens is what actually creates the picture, and good optics are timeless.
I'm still rocking my 2019 iPhone SE. Works just fine and does everything I need it to.

Greetings from Austria.
nah its a phone thing. theyre not progressing like they were before anymore, its kind of pointless to get something recent.
When we were younger the leaps and bounds phones were improving every year was genuinely incredible. These days the phones we have now already do just about everything we need them to, so the only "improvements" are silly gimmicks and privacy violations lol

Honestly after the smasnug note 9 came out, i stopped caring about phones. It had every single feature - minus high refresh rate screen. It was perfect
Bit late but, I'm a film student grad and optics nerd and just to say the zoom lens you have on your Sony is absolutly nowhere near the optical quality and sharpness that you could get from the very best sony lenses avialable. A more basic zoom lens from the general master range would optically be significantly better. Theres websites out there such as optical limits that explains optical characteristics of lenses and tests a whole host of different lenses. Of course I know you most likely have more than one lens its still good to know.
Would also be nice to see the sony be used for main channel vids, I understand you want to use the iphone as camera equipment now but I wouldnt rely on it in the long term (please note I come from a classically taught videography perspective). I've used DSLRs and mirroless camera for short films and its insane how good they've become. To be honest an iphone 10 years in the future will most likely still be no match for todays full frame camera. Iphones have their time and place, and I'm glad that it works for you and that you enjoy using them.
Yo I got a sony alpha 100 from my father. He got himself a new one
It is hella fun doing adjustments to settings and seeing what happens to the photo. It makes it much more fun and worth getting a good shot compared to how easy it is for somone unexperienced like me to make „good“ photos with an iphone.
Anyways idk if you can help me but i was wondering if I really get more invested and interested into photography, do you think getting lenses for the alpha 100 makes more sense or going for an newer model (without going in debt) because of evolution in technology?
Yeah, when I saw the 3.5-6.3 super zoom I was like "yikes"
A dedicated camera button? Amazing! Apple has finally caught up with my old Samsung Intensity II from 2010, though the new iPhone still doesn't have a slide out keyboard

Asus ROG still has a headphone jack.
You haven’t used a A05s. It’s less usable than a flip phone
Yea, USB C only offers bit perfect music vastly better. Current Bluetooth is completely indistinguishable for 99.9% of the population from anything else. And a tiny dingle can make normal headphones usable on USB C. Headphone jack is definitely needed.

i dont disagree with the take of "phone cameras are good cameras too" i just think that a phone camera and a standalone camera have different usecases and design principles. phone cameras are very much about flow and ease of use, which is amazing. but a standalone is more about control. sure its got higher quality but the biggest part is the control you have over it, but more control also means more work and more hands-on things

I've been saying for years that almost nobody needs a flagship phone. I have a mid range phone of the last gen LG made. Good build quality and good enough specs. I have had this phone for 2 years now and honestly Nothing I do on it even lags or stutters. Genuinely what do you do on your phone that a 3 or 5 year old phone can't do at this point.
I’ve had the SE2020 since new and have no plans on upgrading. It’ll get new back glass and a battery and continue to be my daily. Still love this phone.
As a user of a iPhone SE for about 2 years, I can tell you my biggest gripes with it are 1. Screen to body ratio is absolutely awful by today's standards. The size of the phone as a whole is great, but the screen size isn't good. 2. Lightning. All of my other devices use USB-C, it sucks having to carry another cable just for one device. 3. It tends to get hot, like the cooling isn't nearly enough for the SoC. 4. Battery life isn't the best. The battery is a fine size, but the SoC is much less efficient that modern iPhones. 5. The speakers are really not as loud as they could be.
However, there are some good things, like 1. It's still getting updates. 2. It's still reasonably fast. 3. Fingerprint reader. 4. It does have 5g. 5. It can do 4K30 (not 4K60 btw)
It can do 4K 60 just tap on the top right and click on 30
On mine it just switches between 30fps and 24fps
Well, now im confused, because Apple’s website says it can do 4K60, why cant mine?
Its because i was using the Most Compatible formats. It will not record 4K60 in the most compatible format, it uses the High Efficiency format.
I really agree with you on the "why would you want better?" thing. I just got an Android model released late last year for *200 CAD.* It has a thumbprint sensor, a long battery, a camera that can do 50MP, and enough RAM to let me switch between apps without needing to reload any of them. It's so good, I can't see why I'd ever need better?

iPhone Classic (one camera, up to 256gb); and iPhone Classic Pro (two cameras, standard and zoom, up to 512gb). Thumbprint sensor, headphone jack, standard features, because it’s classic.
I bought a 5yo bottom tier flagship. It keeps on going!
bottom tier and flagship are two very different things
@@__JiG__SaW__ S20 is the Flagship Model, FE is the spec.
@@hyperturbotechnomikeBut the Pixel 2 doesn't have a jack?
I use a galaxy s10e. Pretty good phone, 5yo and still good
Apparently location services twll the camera where the photo was taken. I poseted a photo online and somone doxed me. (To inform me of corse)
Now it has the camera button the Sony Xperia 1 V has
Man i wish they made SE Plus like if they did they most probably would discontinue it :/
"I bought a camera"
I was waiting for that. That's the exact reason I'll be upgrading. My current 14 pro is a perfectly cromulent twitter and subsonic client, but a better camera will always draw me in.

I loved my old iPhone 7 so much (2020-2024) I had to change it cause of the battery literally dropping to 10% after 20 minutes, now i have an iPhone XS from 2018 (7 years ago) and it still works great-
The fact that this was all filmed on the iPhone 7+ means that we have come nowhere in 8 years
No 4k 60fps is a pretty big thing.
The only thing wrong with my phone is the charging otherwise it's amazing and for 30 bucks such a steal(it was on sale)(my phone is a moto g play 2024)
I love how the table shakes the camera every time he hits the table
