I love your videos and styles! You legit have the best editing and setups ever!
Also make a video on Raycon Earbuds! They are basically a glorified scam!
A nice vid
@@thedoge7182 thank you : )
:)
It’s “psych” not “sike.”
Can we get one on the “brush your teeth in less than 10 seconds with this revolutionary toothbrush” ad I’ve been seeing for the past year?
Is that the one that was "built by a famous dentist"
This, yes, the led mouthguard xD
@@MercuryKurogane I don't know about you, but I only get my teeth done by dentist who are famous... The rest are just hard working low life, of the peasant class.
That handsfree full mouth electric brush?
Brushing only takes like 2 minutes or less if you do it right. Are people really that lazy?
I am not an Apple phone used but i was told that Apple has already admitted that they did in fact slow down access speeds in some of their iPhones and from what I have heard their were forced to fix this induced problem. They did something with the iPhone firmware that reduced the speed to prolong the battery life.
That lawsuit joke was pretty good. I will say though, Apple definitely had that one coming due to them not being transparent about throttling the processors to stop iPhones from shutting down unexpectedly. I'd say in practice it seems like a good idea, however their execution, specifically their lack of transparency, is where they really screwed up.
Great episode. Thank you! Just wish you had taken the extra step to disassemble the device and show there are no parts inside other than those related to charging.
Thanks for this! Was on the verge of purchasing but watched your video and was delivered from being suckered. “Bad form” on the scammers!
Another half-true: Quick Change 3.0 requires communication between devices and charger to make whole process adaptative:
- Hi I'm QC 3.0 charger
- Good! Give me 12V @ 2,6 amps.
...
- Good! Now slow down to 0,6 amps
I got an ad for this; easiest “this is obviously a scam” of my life. It’s just so stupid. I bet it works really well though on none tech savvy people, which makes me pretty upset honestly.
Just got this ad..
HOW ARE THEY STILL GOING A YEAR LATER 💀
My phone supports QuickCharge 3.0, and I think it takes like an hour to charge to 100% from empty (using an Anker QC 3.0 charger). I usually charge it up when I get up in the morning, and when I'm ready to go, the phone lasts all day on its charge :)
Anker is the way to go
Been using anker for a good 5 years now. I have my first charger block still works.
And it handles the voltage differences between my phones well enough.
Under an hour too charge my A70.
Under three hours too charge the A70 and a Samsung s10.
I believe it's a 10 anyway, haven't checked not actually mine
I recommend using a normal speed charger when you can. Charging the battery faster wears it down faster. 👍
@Ghastly Toast Quickcharge is a feature some chargers have and some phones support. This is just a relevant topic to the video. How is that an ad bruh. It's not even promoting a specific brand.
Quick Charge 3 is actually robust enough that always charging on a QC3 charger has no appreciable affect on battery lifespan in real world applications. Realistically speaking, if you avoid over-discharging, and if you aren't a overly-heavy user your phone will likely have another component fail purely due to age before the battery shows any appreciable wear. Over discharging is what kills modern phone batteries, not over-charging
The problem comes from not being able to stop the update that slow the phone or deplete its battery life. Just like windows 10 you cannot turn off updates. Mine is always installing Microsofts video drivers over the Nvidia driver that works much better
I am thankful for your video exposing this scam man. I almost bought one of these last night but, fortunately thought of doing some research before charging my card. I did not buy. Thanks Ken!
Just got a TH-cam ad for this.
This really made my day...Guess which advertisement I had to watch before the video startet??? Right, exacatly such a scamming device as exposed here...
c
I just got adds for this product the other day, I was wondering when this video would come out
Sued the hell out of them, not sewed the hell out of them.
Scammers = Liars - I hate liars and cheats. Thanks for doing the dirty work.
Present at the creation of the planned obsolescence scandal? So... They were there in the early days of light bulbs? Because that's when planned obsolescence started, with light bulbs.
The monocular thing nearly had me dying, bc i couldn't stop laughing.
Cell phones used to have replaceable batteries. Now they don't. Go figure.....
9:03 I have a s22ultra so with O led it actually looked like my phone turned off lol all I saw was a subscribe button at the bottom left
Still using my iphone7 i got at launch just fine. Battery seems to be still holding fine.
You’re suffering amuses me I’m glad the algorithm brought me here. 😉
I use something simeler to it for my rgbw strip ligjts. I got it at walmart 3.99. It works great as a usb hub for usb lead light strips
You can charge a battery from 1% to 98% in 8 mins... if your battery is near dead and cant hold a charge.
Sad 7 months later and only 40k more
Beyond me why anyone would bite an apple. They were nice when they were young and fresh but now they're full of worms. 😢
LOL people should know these phone company's get you to spend more money by making your phone out of freaken glass, upsell you on screen replacements and always release a new phone at lest once a year to get you to upgrade.
Thanks for this video. I almost bought this product.
Awsome..... thank you.. your the best
Where can I get this fairey dust stuff?
The real red flag is when they use a stock footage of a man swiping up a click to agree prompt.
I did spotted that when i was watching that
Yeah on top that it look one ads you get that claims your phone been infected. And on top of that it also look like it on Pinterest and scrolling should be able to happen
Yeah and when they mention the “engineer”, it showed footage on one ad for me yesterday a different girl than in the clip I just saw in an ad that played before a vid I watched.
"There's a 90% chance your phone is already infected with this!"
With badly photoshopped images!? GET EM OFF!
Its obvious that they were referring to the “obsolescence code” being what has likely already infected your phone. Sure, the ad and product are scams that likely dont actually run a thethered jailbreak (what would be required to do what it claims), but this video is also scammy by lying and exaggerating as if the ad wasn’t legitimately scammy enough, that they had to lie to make it even worse
Those are some great eyes you have.
@@ilearncode7365 Isn't it obvious that we're joking to the ad?
😂
th-cam.com/video/dQP7J-3bUWc/w-d-xo.html
have fun
no it's not among us gameplay
When I see advertisements for products that seem too good to be true I immediately search reviews on TH-cam on them.
Thank you for doing this review and being very thorough.
Same here!
To bad so many don't
8:40 You know what would suck? Your Phone manufacturer going out of their way to make battery replacement as expensive/ tedious as possible or downright impossible so that progressive software updates push you to turn it into e-waste and buy the current year model as soon as possible.
Now *THAT* would suck huh?
My Android phone from 2 and a half years ago still keeps charge fine. And it isn't too slow, but running apps for a while does cause a noticeable slowdown.
Plus the battery in this isn't too difficult to replace, I only had to do it once when a broken charging block shorted the battery.
@@Bobspineable get a whole twenty bucks for your phone. Unless it has even a slight amount of damage than they’ll give you nothing.
yeah, It gets old seeing people put factually substantiated and entirely reasonable claims on the same shelf as "moon landing fake tho" simply because they don't personally think it happened or it goes against mainstream narrative. Unfortunately though, how the word "conspiracy" is used ("I don't think this thing is true") has deviated quite far from the connotation it has. (a thing which is completely and unilaterally absurd and false with such high confidence you can reasonably ignore it)
I mean, a few weeks ago (maybe months now) a political associate was found dead in a forest that he had no personal connection to, having "committed suicide" with a shotgun blast *_to the chest_* (not the mouth) AND, yes, AND, a noose around his neck, hanging from makeshift gallows that he supposedly went out of his way to get materials for and construct, using an extension cord as a noose. (so he got wood and shit for gallows, but couldnt be bothered to find a rope for a noose) And that's definitely a suicide, and if you say anything else you're a conspiracy theorist.
Yeah, Ken is a bit of an Apple fanboy, and it's easy to tell when he just brushes planned obsolescence under the rug like it doesn't even exist. There's a reason people say "they don't make em like they used to" -- and this goes for most if not all manufacturers, not just Apple. Mobile phones are one of the worst for it, these companies make money selling you new phones every year, not selling you one phone for you to use for the next 10 years.
Learn to replace your own and stop whining. Literally nothing happens if you replace iPhone batteries, I’ve had it done over 5 timed
Jarvis just keeps crossing over to every channel I watch, this truly is the Johnson Cinematic Universe
Man just scanned for Jarvis Johnson! That’s funny asf never would’ve noticed it!
Lol😂
I so so so hope he makes a video about this lol
I just got that ad and saw Jarvis too
wtf lmao
LOL I’m still laughing my ass off
It literally showed the ad you’re tearing apart before the video. 😂😂😂
Lmao
That's awesome 😁
TH-cam tries to show you shit it thinks you're watching/enjoying with big fails sometimes. 😂
th-cam.com/video/dQP7J-3bUWc/w-d-xo.html
if you cant see it blame the comment bots
The biggest plot twist in this story was Jarvis Johnson being included somehow.
right????
First the sinking of the Titanic and now this? He can’t keep getting away with this!
this came up on an autoplay playlist i put on to fall asleep 2 years later and i had forgotten all about that and almost choked hearing him come up as the key to figuring shit out lol
1:25 Ohhh. I see what they're doing. They're trying to use "Epic" in that phrase as just an adjective to push whatever they're trying to say. Realizing most that will fall for this, have probably never heard of "Epic", the game company.
no, thats definitely not what they're doing lmao. They're just trying to make it seem like Apple is in court testifying because it's shady
I was going to say that same thing. real good manipulation of words on their part.
This is worse than 12 year old fortnite noobs.
Epic, the game company? Is that the company behind Fortnite?
@@ryanpascual9598 Fortnite, the Unreal shooter series, the Unreal Engine, as well as the Epic Games Store, yes.
Glad you released a video on them so I won’t have to see the ad anymore when they go into hiding
Remember that the battery charging is controlled by a chip built into the phone. The charger only supplies power for the chip to use to charge your battery. It literally cannot do anything like the claims.
Only thing it can do, is either supply no power, supply enough power, or supply so much it fries the phone.
@@nikkiofthevalley My cousin's wife got one of these things and I try telling her the thing can mess up her phone and even catch on fire. But she won't listen and think she knows it all when she doesn't.
@@jerryg7391 this is one reason you should never marry your cousin.
@@freshbrad1354 That was a very dumb thing to say....
@@freshbrad1354 🤣🤣🤣
The moment I saw an ad for this I immediately searched it hoping you'd have a review. Glad you did!
"Hight-tech technology"
Ah yes
High technology technology
"This is my life now,"
And we love you for it! Keep up the videos bud, really enjoy them. 🤓♥️
6:19 yeah umm there’s also a Patreon shirt
We should have stronger consumer protection laws in this country.
But but but fReE mArKeT and pErSoNaL rEsPoNsIbIlItY
All of this crap is offshore (aka China). The addresses can be in China, the videos on a server in China. By the time anything is done the scammers have made their money and gone onto the next one. You have to be an educated consumer to avoid these scams. Many people are not and will believe anything.
@@garfieldsmith332 So when we see these scam ads on TH-cam, the videos are coming from TH-cam's servers - you're saying their servers are in China?
@@izzieb TH-cam should have better ad screening.
@@izzieb Just Taiwan, actually.
Ken, I absolutely LOVE your videos!!! You’re the best consumer product advocate I’ve seen since the late 1970’s and early 1980’s when David Horowitz used to run a very similar show on TV. Please keep making more videos. You are REALLY helping the lone consumer in a day and age where it has never been more needed! You’re a true American hero!
Lmfao, the ad at the start of this video was "ArctosAC" and its one of those swamp coolers that "can cool your whole house"
Same hahaha
Same here. The irony was not lost on me.
Bet it's another "the same product" scam like Blaux one
Haha, Same here!
Its soo small too. Like a swamp cooler that can theoretically cool your whole house is the size of a big air conditioner.
First thing I got was an ad for the Arctos Portable AC, will keep you cool, using a glass of cool water.
Dude same lol
Me too. I guess they'll take any publicity they can get
Same here
Same here too
Same here, and I was about to comment about it too lmao
The bird watching through the charger killed me, thanx for that , loved it💗
Why do these "young enterpreneurs" always have no morals or ethics for doing their stuffs? Why would these scammers stooped *THIS LOW* to convince people to buy their stuffs? It unintentionally (or maybe intentionally) smeared people's name like Mayuko and Jarvis, eventhough they're in absolutely no way involved with it. Is this a morale crisis or something??? 🤦🏻♂️
Silicon Valley
because big business has no morals or ethics, allegedly.
Because the same people who view their phone as a bootloader for facebook (or whatever social media they glue themselves to )are the ones who think you can make a device that can violate all known laws of physics.
@@mariatelos I missed the day where there were real standards for business practices 😔
Because there’s no shortage of dummies who will buy this based on this ad.
My favorite part of the ad is when they seemingly quote the apple engineer by showing a video of the apple engineer talking and then voicing over what she apparently said.
Because they couldn't get that video interview footage from the stock photo model they used.
Also iPhones do not support Qualcomm Quick Charge yet the ad showed footage of it plugged into an iPhone.
And that's because Iphone does not use Qualcomm! I think. That's what I remember.
@@diakounknown1225 newer Apple devices use USB-PD, a similar technology, but an open standard that everybody is going toward, generally. I have an Anker that does both in my bag so yay.
As soon as they mentioned that the “former Apple engineer” created this charger, it’s a sign of red flag 🚩 🚩 🚩
I got an ad for another swamp cooler masquerading as a portable air conditioner. Twice! These scams/false advertising products sure do love to be near you. Thank TH-cam algorithm!
Better buy now. Supplies are limited.
@@I.C.Weiner Yep, those two pallets worth at my Wal-mart(and home depot and lowe's and... and...and) were really moving.
Remember, they're giving it away at a 50% discount to get the word out, but there's only a few left.
remember to put a timer somewhere in the video!
I find it hilarious that I got the ad for the charger on one of Ken’s videos
I got a swamp cooler ad!
I laughed when TH-cam published an ad for a _Blau Swamp Cooler_ before your video started. These trolls are flat out of control.
I'm one for loving debunking and such, and these videos are cool nuggets. However Apple is such a bad actor when it comes to repairability that I cringe a little when someone tries to position planned obsolescence as a conspiracy theory / tinfoil hat.
I would just never want an Apple phone or computer. I can only imagine the struggle it would be to get my files back from those if they ever break. It is not like it is a hard drive or SD card you can plug into another computer. I could honestly imagine someone mentioning SD card to someone at Apple and getting a completely confused look back like what the hell is an SD card.
Didn't they get successfully sued for it a while ago
Edit: just finished the video and this was mentioned lmao spoke too soon
Yeah this was the video that showed this guy's true colors of being an Apple cult member. There were hints of it in some of his previous videos, but this one he let it all hang out.
@@AJSHOPE he did mention it though?
@@therealmistermemer He mentioned that they did get sued over one shady thing... pretty dismissively, to be honest. He also treats batteries dying as pretty clearly a situation of 'oh well, better buy a new phone' being the only reasonable solution, when if it wasn't for phone manufacturers actively fighting against right to repair and adding features that have at times been proven to quite literally destroy your phone rather than allow you to fix something as simple as a dead battery it would be exactly what it was previously: "Welp, battery's getting old, time to buy a new one!"
to be clear, for what the channel ACTUALLY IS, a teardown of scam products, it's really good. Just kinda a shame that when something like this that is legitimately a problem in the space comes up that it's treated like this.
1:19 I think they thought the text was using epic as an adjective, which is just hilarious.
_Aha_ Ken, you missed it with the "Epic court battle" - The narrative is trying to say the court battle was epic, not that it was _against_ Epic.
I remember coming across this ad not too long ago, and literally laughing throughout its entire duration. It’s like they string together totally unrelated (potential) problems and say a charging brick can fix them.
Don’t even get me started on the unlimited clean drinking water thing that apparently uses no energy. My heart couldn’t take it.
I should start making ads stating a roll of generic toilet paper can prevent colon cancer, heart disease, and aging in general while keeping your pets water bowls clean.
Oh but TP can do that - only if you buy it from ME for $37.95 which is half off it’s regular price
I’m literally watching this ad right now LOL
You could make your own gravity fed charcoal water filter that uses no electricity at all. The only real limitation is having to replace the charcoal every so often when it gets 'full' of the impurities.
Good video though you'll never get me to take off my tin foil hat! Nice try, I'm onto you...
I love seeing an ad and going
" oh he's gonna have a field with this"
The Apple “Battery Gate” fallacy @7:00 highlights how a big company can get away manipulative tactics without addressing how some of the products reviewed in this series attempt to do similar things.
Ken, you need to do a new year's episode where you take all the scam tech you have reviewed over the last year, give a three-minute recap on it, then destroy it all with a hammer.
Who is the woman in the new BoltzPro ad? I never saw the old ad, but the new ad really looks legit. The only reason I didn't trust it is because I knew the technology is literally impossible.
A legit claim that would actually improve battery life would be that the charger is super slowly charging your phone overnight at like 2% per 10minutes ( 6*2 = 12% per hour, 8h of sleep *12% per hour = 96%). The last few percentages are being charged at normal speed the last half hour before you set your wake up alarm (or when you start using your phone before that alarm).
Something like this would be a lot better and actually work.
The 1Plus phone does that: plug it in at night, and it gives a message explaining that it is charging very slowly to maximize battery life and planned to finish charging by 6AM. I think it automatically adapts based on usage habits, but links to a configuration option.
@@JohnDlugosz Wouldn't be suprised if 99.99% of people turn that off, and then complain about low battery life.
@@nikkiofthevalley I always turn it off :D I do not charge my phone while sleeping
I'm not sure how many generations back this feature goes, but iPhones from at least the 11 onward have a feature where they'll learn when you normally unplug them from the charger. They'll stop charging at 80%, and then resume charging in time to finish right before you'd normally unplug it.
I think it's absurd that you can't set that time manually, but it's a nice feature nonetheless.
That's not even B-Roll. That's Z-Roll. (D-Roll didn't want a hand in that.)
more like S roll, aka S is for shit
I would like to see a video on the new freedom phone, it claims to be a privacy phone made in the USA but as far as we can see, it’s a rebranded Chinese phone. All the software on it can be used on any android phone
“Then they pull this BS back story out of their butt!” I love how he wanted to be zen, but this was just too much for him. 🤣🤣
Woah, JARVIS JOHNSON? And SILVER THE HEDGEHOG? This video has everything!
I literally had an ad for this before this video
"This is my life now."
I was drinking when that came up. Just recovered from a 2 minute coughing fit from laugh-inhaling my drink.
Thanks, Ken.
No, seriously, thanks for this series - I've shared links to the various scam buster videos of yours to many less-than-savvy family members.
Awesome content. Some disagree with your message regarding the planned obsolescence conspiracy. This video has made me start thinking about it from a new perspective. Subscribed.
Congrats on the 300K Subs Ken!! Another great video!
Thank you : D
I did not expect Jarvis Johnson to show up in this video!! I love his videos
Just for a change of pace Ken. I want to see you review actually WORKING tech products that deserve more love.
What fun would that be? 😆
I don't get why they don't show it using a Samsung or other Androids that support Quick Charge, instead of Apple devices, which never have. 🤪 Newer ones do support USB-PD, a similar, open standard.
Love these types of videos, keep them coming.
At 2:12
Planned obsolescence conference....
There WAS such a conference!! In the 19 teens....about light bulbs.
Group lightbulb manufacturers got together and chose to cooperate in manufacturing their light bulbs more cheaply so that they did not last as long. There was charged has brought, and convictions dealt out....but the damage was already done.
If that joker was there at the conference, he's a really old man by now!!!!
As a flip, could you review top of the line official chargers and products as a one off vid? We bought a new iPad and the charger that came with it seems amazing, so would love to see a cost comparison :D
If you like the performance of that charger I would recommend you buy more of them for your phones and or other devices that are compatible with that charging speed apart from your ipad.
I'm really grateful and a blessing"
When I watched that Oriental Lady, she was having my back, and she was sick and tired of the big companies
Screwing us, little guy's and took her
Technician and March right out of the owners office, and she was there when they built the charger...I all most bought that charger a couple times....
"The updates are part of the planned obsolescence, causing your device to act up". This part is absolute truth.
EDIT: To clarify, software updates will break your device's functionality when a company wants you to upgrade. This was started by Microsoft, and is now in place with many companies. Windows Millennium worked perfectly fine as long as it was never updates. Same with Vista. Android phones will remain fast as long as updates are disabled. Is your phone slow? Do a factory reset and do not allow internet access until you have shut down updates. It will be fast for years.
Yes to a point but old hardware is always eventually gonna fall way behind and modern websites are made like shit
@@Bobspineable the hardware doesnt (except battery life) its just the software that gets worse with each update (not just system updates but also app update can effect the entire system)
Appreciate your review. It’s obvious Boltzpro is a scam. I’ve been working with computer tech since the 80s and the iPhone since it was introduced.
All that being said I disagree with the comments you made about the iPhone on Apple sabotaging it through its updates. They do control functions of your phone through various updates from various app providers. I’m not sure if your an avid iPhone user. you sound just a little bit biased in favor of Apple.
This is just my opinion nothing bad meant by it. Keep doing your reviews I might get into this stuff too.
Ken, the one thing I didn't like about this video was your dismissiveness towards the class action lawsuit against Apple
Yes $25 is practically meaningless, but it's about sending a message to Apple and any other tech giant, telling them that they can't get away with non-transparent bs.
It had other advantages beyond that as well in that it forced Apple into actually replacing the faulty batteries for free instead of charging and refunding those unfortunate enough to have paid when their phone was still under warranty. This wasn’t just a normal degradation issue, it was a fault that often occurred well within one year of ownership.
I was lucky in that I know batteries and told the store manager that if he would put it in writing that the battery wasn’t bad after he saw the phone immediately power off, then I would pay and promptly sue. Unfortunately many people paid them the full price before this change not knowing better. If Apple didn’t make these changes you can bet the payout would of been a LOT more then $25.
On the subject of planned obsolescence - it's important to note that while this product is obviously a plastic box full of lies, planned obsolescence is a very real thing that causes very real problems.
Many companies(especially larger ones) have undesirable business practices such as PO, and they generally get away with it by distracting you with deceptive PR or a new shiny product. Apple and, to a smaller extent, Samsung are both guilty of it. That's why things like Right to Repair are so important - the more we let them get away with, the harder they squeeze our wallets.
2:22 didn’t know Jarvis worked for apple, he really did do his best
That what I'm sayin!
Thanks....was almost ready to buy this POS!
I have a Samsung Note 9 so you see why I would consider it.
Thanks! 👍🏻😉
I remember geting this ad a few days ago when I was watching TH-cam.
done watching rerez's duke nukem flopever review and got this
At 7:26 you can see that the footage is from a TH-camr called Brandon Butch. This is noticable due to the Instagram profile on the left hand side of bother phones.
Crazy Ken, thank you for the work that you do in uncovering all these scams out there.
I agree the product is a scam I'm not so sure on planned obsolescence. If you look it up it is a thing. Look up the forever bulb. There is a bulb that's been glowing continuously for over 100 yrs. I had to update my last galaxy phone because the updates made it so that the phone would not function. It would shut itself off randomly. My new phone updates constantly. It is a year old and I can't imagine that a year old tech be so far out of date that "updates" should affect it as much as this person says. I feel Samsung designed there phones to update themselves till they won't function anymore. I mean how would company's make any money if your disposable razor laster forever, your TV, your vehicles, and everything else you can't consider a consumables such as soap, food, and ect.
I'm calling it now. With how deep he dives into scams, in 5 years we'll see Ken actually wearing a tinfoil hat and when he says "Let's just take our tinfoil hats off." he'll still do the gesture and continue wearing it the entire video. Haha.
Nothing to do with Computers but I bought a knock off belt about 20 years ago. How do I know it was a knock off? It was branded Nike, and according to my friend (who managed a trainer store and knew Nike's product line inside out), Nike didn't do belts at the time.
Not moaning though. It was a well made belt that I got for next to nothing and it lasted over 10 years..
I was going to say thank you for helping the boomers avoid these scams, but so much of your content is well beyond boomer protection, I LOVE scam busting, and checking out dodgy products. So thank you, and well done. (Subscribed).
Come on, this video is no better then the bolt-pro add. Yea, believing bolt-pro can do all those things is being totally gullible, but this video first off doesn't do much to solidly prove anything either. The idea that you 'tested it' with one single case, and a tone of assumptions is a lame way to 'prove' anything.
Second this idea that apple did not do what the court case showed they did do, purposely release software to slow down old phones, right before new phones were to be released. Go read the discovery in the cases against apple to get an idea of how much evidence there is to support that charge. And so his little, "apple is my hero" routine in order to get apple favor is not proof again of anything.
Any of your arguments would not hold up in court, or for any decent engineer they could point a thousand holes in the 'proof' you assume. I am not for bolt-pro, it clearly makes claims that are basically impossible to guarantee, so just because I am pointing the giant holes in this case you make against the boltpro charger, in no way means I believe the advertising around it. But I do not 'know 100%' they are lying, and neither do you, which is the entire problem. Your idea of 'proof' would make descartes cry...
When I see the clip of the "apple engineer" and it is of Mayuko's I was like... "Waaaaiiit a sec, Mayuko is Jarvis's Friend cause I know her from him"
And lo and behold. My Mans there 😂
Absolutely hilarious that the scammers used her video
Yeah, it was a fun time digging into this one. 😆
I just saw the ad for this product 10 seconds ago and had to look up what people are saying. I was laughing through the whole ad. It was a bold faced lie from start to finish. Who is that guy in the ad? How is he not getting sued?
The first time I saw an ad on this product, I thought “huh, neat” and moved on. Second time I caught that “mobile company legal teams trying to stop this,” I thought if they were, they’re basically admitting that the planned obsolescence IS real, effectively shooting themselves in the foot. So I did some searching and found this video.
I am writing this with a iPad mini 3 it is 5 years old and I am running on 12.5.6 iOS so are you lying and on top of that random apps kick me out randomly or when they update it says it need 13.0.0 or later can you help? Please
Just saw the ad, but the switch it to an Asian woman who claims to be this woman that worked for a big company. Speeding up the video to show the speed. These scams are everywhere. Like the guy that use to work at a "Big drone company" lol.
