    $1,300 for a personal computer you’ll never fully own or be in complete control of?

    Pass.

      Also no one ever needs.
      They have this amazing camera on it, but to get the full use out of it you need to manually set the shutter speed, lighting and all kinds of shit. I know so many people who buy these phones because of the camera, and then set it on auto and take mediocre pictures that are on par with my 200 dollar phone. your 144hz screen is useless when you set it to 60 so your battery lasts longer. I sometimes go through half a youtube video on 360 or 480p before realising it on my phone, but i’m sure that people can’t live without a 4k screen

      Mind at least referencing your daily driver after saying that? I shared the video because I love learning about damn near every device that comes out. He references the price in the review.

      Also reply to my question if possible. You’re downvoting because you aren’t in the market for a new device?

        I didn’t downvote anything. Maybe other people did.

        Your post reads like an advertisement. I don’t like advertisements. When I need a new phone I will buy one. There’s nothing wrong with all the phones I already have. I do not need a new phone right now. I don’t need them to be advertised to me.

          Interesting, something must be broke somewhere then:

          I don’t care all around I just want to know what it is. I see it’s Samsung and that it’s ad like are most of the answers.

        Wait so if i don’t purchase this vs. Someone who does… I am a peasant because I still have $1200 in my account? (Continuing the ridiculuousness you pointed out)

    Weird, never know how Lemmy’s going to react to a post. The people who downvoted… do you mind chiming in as well? Is Samsung on the buzz word list? Is it because I didn’t use piped? Is it because MKBHD is black? It’s a well done review. I’m very curious.

      “Why buy anything else” is a bad title, comes off as a condescending ad.

        It would be great to know, in my opinion, for future reference. I can’t wrap my head around why it would even be downvoted lol.

          It doesn’t really matter why someone downvoted a post and people don’t have to explain why they downvoted, ignore it and keep posting or don’t, it’s all pointless anyway.

        I guess it could help OP calibrate and submit content that this community vibes with. 🤷‍♂️
