HTC One Max Phablet

[@xxDrain]

I absolutely love how, at first, the "also share on google+" check-box was only auto-filled. Now, not only is it auto-filled, but they also make it invisible at first so you don't even get to uncheck it if you make a quick comment. So subtle, google.

[@CaptSumTingWong1]

From about 6:50 to 7:00 is why I love you so much Linus XD

[@Badoomtch]

I'm not sure if you did but it looks like you forgot to cut parts out towards the end.

[@prpunkskater1]

yes they did forget...

[@brvantv]

YES back to reviews and unboxings!!!!

[@ello1234567]

LOL I never get tired of your humor linus!

[@tehrazgaming]

13:06 and 13:55 wow, i guess i needed to listen this twice to understand the conclusion of the video

[@sebolavarria]

is there a repetition at the end by 14:00

[@MathyVids]

One of your best reviews yet. Funny comments and relevant information plus you seemed genuinly excited! Even though I just bought a new phone and therefore don't require a new one, I really found this video extremely entertaining!

[@Itbankrock]

5:09 - "HTC One Two" xD Best phone name xD

[@lukelwnmr]

could you check out some more xperia stuff? Some more unknown

[@JustCauseVids]

phantastic video, really phelt like this video was made well, phull of really good info about this new phone

[@MunPruttt]

This video really tells why I love your reviews Linus! Because you don't only go for your own opinion you can see further, you can think of reasons that other people might like something you don't, you can see through others eyes and that, I think, is really beutiful to be able to do!

[@GreekDuder]

YOU MAKE SUCH GOOD VIDEOS YOU HUMOR AND PASSION ABOUT TECHNOLOGY MAKES THE VIDEO SO AWESOME !

[@theApe-X]

10:00 Stock Android has customisable quick toggles and quick settings, i assume that is the case for Samsung and HTC also.

[@Masterincommander]

Should do a LG G2 review

[@iNubAlert]

I agree he should, i love my LG G2

[@iNubAlert]

i wanna know what he thinks :P

[@SMG4LIFE01]

LOOOL how dude was holding the phone with two hands

[@shanebovell6733]

I like how Linus talked up the nexus 5 after his initial review and subsequent use of his first phablet.

[@soulextinguisher]

I've had the original HTC One for many months now and I have no regrets. However this is coming from somebody who frequently watches videos on it. I cannot see myself moving back to a phone without dual frontal speakers, so this would make the One Max an excellent choice for myself. I am very satisfied with my current 469 ppi density and although I would like a slightly larger screen and speakers from time to time, it doesn't really pose an issue at 4.7 inches. Especially with my slightly higher ppi than the One Max. In additions the large size of the One Max would probably be awkward to carry around(in terms of looks, not ease of comfort). One thing I would like to note is that The HTC One Max is the only Phablet/tablet that I know of with dual frontal speakers, not to mention the large LED 1080p screen. Conclusion; I bought the HTC One for portable, high quality video watching and it having a LED over a AMOLED screen serves as a benefit for a on the go device. I have no complaints other than it would be nice to have a removable battery and a sd card slot(not for expandable storage, but for easy storage transfer; the One in most Asian countries has a sd card slot). though there are some features I don't care for. If you want a pocket sized media device I highly recommend it. I even typed this on my phone.

[@jaeyunlim3430]

hahaha your sense of humor is getting so much better now. :)

[@ZulqarnainAidil]

I think the best phablet is still the the note 3. I'm not a fan of their super amoled display since the colours are saturated to me, it does everything very well and makes good use of the screen size and you'd start to forget about the saturated display

[@bugattifanvili]

when is the LG G2 review from Slick coming?

[@Pelefionk]

Linus i really love your videos! Even though i did not have a clue of what CES was i fell in love with it with your vids, Even stuff i dont care about are made interresting by you. And when you then make vids about Things i love (gaming, all custum pc specially liquid cooled and tech and gear) please continue i love your opinion (i doesnt feel biased) beacause if you say its epic, it means buy! Basically recognition from a fan :) best regards

[@ErikTheAndroid]

Oh man, I know that Linus likes his puns but this is a whole new level of pun.

[@gpdrissel]

I think its great that we are starting to see more variety with sizes in phones now. Like you said in the IPhone comparison, a lot of ppl could love the size for a ton of reason, like ppl with vision or typing issues! And the fact that they make almost the same one in a smaller size is really nice. Def think there is a place for a phone like this is the marketplace.

[@Callum15121990]

Linus, always goes bareback.

[@stephenbrothers9185]

Linus, the One Max does NOT have optical image stabilization like the regular one. Both the max and the mini are lacking this feature.

[@TheChadwokie]

would love to see you compare the note 3 to this linus

[@Cartzy]

I've heard that the black one is bigger. Is this true?

[@Aaron_stephen]

Is Slick ever going to do his LG G2 Review, because I am loving my G2, specially the battery life 2 days without charging and it is still at 62%.

[@Gangrieksta]

Where do you leave it when you're not using it? I got rid of my S3 partly because it was too big and costing me more time and energy keeping the size in mind when sitting down than I enjoyed the extra display size. Driving a car required me to take it out of my pocket and put in on the passenger seat because I couldn't lift my leg to opperate the clutch and no storage area big enough or right shape. I can't think of a way I could make this size phone work for me without being a slave to it.

[@15KramSmada15]

HTC used to do wireless charging in most of it's phones, but when they switched to aluminum, HTC said that metal presented too many challenges for wireless charging.

[@sweetdreams1DIAM0ND]

YAYYYYY Finally Linus changed something in the background!!! AX1200 power supply box with the Asus Maximus Vi Formula, I loved this motherboard from day ONE that Asus introduced it and I knew I will be the winner but sadly the retailers in our country didnt have it and I went with Sabertooth X79 insraed.

[@7oxicAvenGer]

02:36 "many trolls and flaming kids..." lol what

[@SlackWi]

you edited in the ending twice

[@TheCyberEntity]

Love your videos Linus. You should do a review of the Note 3 and the iPhone 5S. I want to hear your thoughts about those two.

[@SmokeySmudgeStudio]

What happened at the end? You said the same thing like twice!

[@P1an0Freak]

the number of homosexual references is too damn high! not like i care or anything

[@heynando]

agreed. it's kinda like they say.. "one is good, two is better, three is a nightmare"

[@xp7575]

You're gonna hate the next 6 years then lol

[@Xargh]

why the reused footage? 13:20 14:03

[@EndermanAPM]

No that i have a 5"..... Nexus 5 coming from a huawei u8650 i have to admit that the 1st days have been rough, it was really big but now, with just 10 days of use i'm very happy with it and its a pain to go back to 3,5" screens like my ipod 4. But i don't know, 6" it's maybe too big for me.

[@MrZongoNuts]

Don't think we've ever seen so many phallic references in 1 video from Linus.

[@NXDL25]

I'v just bought a 4670k last saturday from germany, am I still eligible to win ?

[@TheSephix57]

my first concern with those phone would be to find somewhere to keep it ? You have to carry a bag or some kind of hand bag (maybe purse for women ?)

[@hillbillykid1]

Why don't you have shirts in the store?

[@DmitriVanderbilt]

I feel like I'm the only one in the "bigger is better" camp. I got a Note 3 just after Christmas and I LOVE how goddamn huge it is, but I DEFINITELY would have bought a Galaxy Mega had it had the same (or better, as it should) specs. Why have 5.7" when you can have 6.3", right?

[@TrustTheShooters]

This is one of the funniest videos, man mad sleeper. Cats be slumbering on it.

[@dahorn100011]

at a careers fair, O2 (British network) gave me a small stylus that unscrews the body to reveal a pen, it also came with a little string attached to a plastic fake headphone jack, that plugged into your phone so you never lose it. It was a great idea tbh

[@lescarpio]

I honestly don't understand why viewing angles are a big deal in phones. TVs, yes. Phones, no. I can understand you'd want to share your screen with someone next to you, but it's the nosy ones I don't want sharing with. I'd rather have a phone that doesn't mind narrow viewing angles.

[@schlachtaf]

well, I have a Huawei Ascend Mate, and viewing angles for big phones are important. I wanted a phone for reading, and media consumption, which means, I will be all over the place, and not having to worry about the phone being in the wrong angle is great. ofc for smaller phones, not meant for media, having bad viewing angles is not a negative thing in my eyes, either

[@wicho99w99]

nice video, its great to see different videos inyour channel

[@TimHerzig]

I got the Note 3, i had a iPod touch before i got it and now it's just very hard to use the smaller screen. I would recommend everyone to try out a phone with a bigger screen, you need to get used to it, but when you do it's amazing and you can't go back to a smaller device.

[@Valadcm500]

Love this review

[@KevinColt]

You have lots of experience holding them big linus such a care in those hands

[@TacticalWolfxQC]

Also why do they lower the specs on smaller phones...

[@Magic-Tree]

"I have trouble getting two fingers up there, one handed" :o LINUS!

[@karehaqt]

When is the 10" version being released

[@LorenzoManiglia]

Can you make a evga gtx 770 classified or gtx 770 dual ftw benchmarks video??

[@PatrickP0078]

Great phone, but it is a shame, that it doenst have a snapdragon 800... its like they had some leftovers from the original One and intergrated it with this phone.

[@MrChonkers]

The note2 pretty much hit the sweet spot on phone/screen size and ease of handling for a "phablet". Have yet to see anything worth upgrading.

[@Nawmaster]

Love your humor linus! :)

[@westyk52sparky]

why did they use the snapdragon 600 and not the 800 ??????

[@fobos101]

this an odd question but in the close up with the specs, does anybody know what font was used?

[@oOZythonOo]

"HTC One.. Two. " "BRILLIANT!"

[@MrMeep1999]

Love the jump cuts

[@CallumHunt]

Some editing issues (repeating yourself) around 13:40

[@RooboliusBrandybuck]

Linus, you don't mention the coolest part of Zoes. The phone takes full resolution pictures along with the video and allows you to scrub through the short video file to get the perfect picture. Zoes are actually the only reason I still run Sense on my HTC One.

[@Applepro14]

So the big question, this or the note 3?

[@TheEmPERRIOR]

in who's pocket is that giant supposed to fit ?

[@mouselogi]

I wonder why HTC sent you the One Max if it isn't being released in Canada

[@mloaiza002]

I believe phablet is some cases are great and it can help a lot depending on the situation, maybe work. I hope you can try to get the lumia 1520.

[@invisghostie6204]

I recently upgraded from a thunderbolt to a one. The one is the best smartphone I've ever used. The only problems I have are the battery and the positions of the lock and volume buttons. I always volume up or down when trying to lock or unlock one handed. And the battery is great when you're not using the screen -___- but overall I love my phone

[@NitroFlairBlitz127]

I feel that average sized phones like the HTC one m8 or m7 are fine for the average user. Larger phones (phablets) on the other hand are a great concept but the manufacturers have to take advantage of this screen realestate with more than just adding a row of icons (like the iPhone 6+). If you look at the note line they take advantage of the space with multitasking features that I think other large phones should take advantage of.

[@EvilCronos13]

I know my mother often complains about not being able to type on her phone, maybe I should send her a link to this?

[@DX88]

Don't you guys just love remembering how he swore to never leave ios for soooooooooo long. Seeing him around all these droids just makes me smile!

[@charlocharlie]

The ending repeats a clip twice. I was getting really confused while watching.

[@hootis8]

I got it only because it has expandable store, I really love it. I think you should have mentioned the possibility for battery powered case. It has a huge battery life with the case on like 2 days of full 8+ hour use and leaving it on the night inbetween connected to wifi the whole time. On my old phone i had to turn the wifi off to save power not anymore.

[@JusstyteN]

i want this phone with snapdragon 810 or better and stockbandroid since im in love of my stock 444 on nexus 5 and im not updating it coz its rooted

[@WordsThroughTheSky]

Someone made a bunch of mistakes in the edits. That ending was awkward. I suggest a quick review of the video before publishing it.

[@andreimanila6123]

Lol loved the permits humor. But you're right, this damn huge phone isn't for the regular consumer.

[@OctaviaAddiction]

I bought this phone a couple weeks ago, I can't love it anymore! The battery gives me hours and hours of playing PSP emulators :)

[@timgreer606]

Phablets r more fun to use yes u need to get used to carrying them around but once u find a way that u can tolerate it starts to get even more enjoyable.

[@Bishey]

You did the voice quality bit twice (Editing mistake probably). Awesome review though. Nice work.

[@LPRaver89]

I have the HTC One... cant wait for the new M8 or whatever they end up calling it to come out.

[@Zensaitv]

I really liked what you did with this Video haha but the phone seems really amazing!

[@chwaca]

Well Samsung Note 3 got a better specs, but the build quality on HTC phones is the best. Plus the stereo speakers are big plus and I wouldn't need to even buy a tablet for reading books. Now sure how easily it can fit into the jeans pocket. Maybe I'll get HTC one.

[@MrFlashXs]

I personally have fairly big hands but big phones still aren't practicaly for me. I had an iPhone which I felt was way too small but my new phone (Pantech Flex, 5 inch phone with a 4.3 inch screen i believe) is perfect for me. And the on screen buttons I absolutely love. It really brings a new level of response to Android having them imo.

[@rws91942]

That phone looks huge in this video. But in 2020 , a 5.9-in phone is pretty much average if not considered a little bit compact. Although I think the aspect ratios were much more box like than now...

[@EL_ClD]

13:26 14:14 does Linus repeat what he said?

[@LiptonTeaGodly]

2:50 This is why I'm subscribed, dat editing right there because he knew there was a dick joke coming.

[@Alexandra-Rex]

At the conclusion, some video plays twice.

[@JenJui]

thank you for your review. I definitely want this phone. I have already played with it a little bit at the sprint store, and I knew then that I wanted it. But I have to wait until September 1st, before I can Upgrade to it. My Birthday is September 6th, so I'll just make myself wait a few days more, so I can get it for myself as my Birthday present to myself. I've already found a case for it, on eBay that I really love. I'll buy it before I get the phone, that way I'll have it ready to put on the phone, once I get the phone. :) I have small hands like you too.. but that's ok. :) this phone in My opinion, is pretty Awesome! :) again, thanks for your Review of it. :)

[@StevenFranklin]

Huge mistake where's your note 3

[@StevenFranklin]

***** me =====> your mom

[@StevenFranklin]

***** -_-

[@StevenFranklin]

***** note 3 > HTC one max......... The phone that sucks

[@StevenFranklin]

***** are you serious hahahahahahaa first off I prefer ambled and second off how do you make a Phablet and it like two times bigger than the others and it doesn't even have a stylus built in...... Its like holding a tank......plus Samsung software whoops DAT ass... Where's your multitasking or pen window?

[@StevenFranklin]

Joseph Arciga help me pwwn this noob :'(

[@Jaaay2k]

Yes, the intro is back! :D

[@madjoker2167]

Awesome HTC cool review

[@alizaidrosli]

Loved the One!

[@SupurrrCat]

LINUUUUUUUS!! New smartwatch! It's called 'Neptune Pine' and it comes with so many accessories yayy

[@prpunkskater1]

he hates the neptune....

[@LinusTechTips]

prcrazy12345 I kickstarted it...

[@Blabry1912]

prcrazy12345 get rekt small son

[@xp7575]

Back to version 2 of the show intro, bummer, I was digging version 3 cause it was way more chill

[@erikslatterv]

HAHA, great video and very funny with the "stop-talking cuz well yeah" stuff xD

[@willdontrq]

Editing fail at the last 3 minutes.

[@Pinkskull69420]

I thought I was going crazy. lol

[@T0phen95]

Thought I was crazy too.

[@ZacharyToliver]

Lmao I'm right up there with you guys.^^

[@SirrrPrize]

I think that was intentional. He was probably pointing out the irony in having three iterations of the HTC One by repeating the same thing three times.

[@T0phen95]

Wow, that is really cleaver.

[@ramuk-]

I like it but I don't like the bumper that goes around the phone, I would have liked it to have the same design as the ONE

[@EndermenZoffiy]

Linus from around 13:15 - 14:00 the video repeats!

[@lllllZeraTulRIIIII]

so Galaxy note 3 is a phone or a phablet
