[@nibinjohn3761]

I mean its a budget phone after all , it's built like any other budget phones out there except the design there isn't much content to make separate videos for durability test and the teardown.

[@cbnewham5633]

Unfortunately Zac seems to be getting more lazy - perhaps because he now has a lot of sponsorship and no longer needs to crank out videos in pairs. I have noticed this with other professional KZbinrs. Perhaps I'm being cynical, but I notice the sponsorship section is now done as part of the teardown - in an attempt to keep you looking at that section. It won't work on me - I just skipped. If it gets worse, I won't be watching at all.

[@BerryFunChannel1]

he does it because nobody would be interested in a whole second video, he does second videos for the bigger phones since more people will watch them. but a phone nobodys heard about wont get that many views. it's very simple idk why people don't realize it...

[@4RILDIGITAL]

It's great to see companies like Nothing challenging the status quo and delivering exceptional products despite being a budget phone.

[@vitas75]

They aren't challenging the status quo. No headphone jack, no expandable storage. The transparency and the lights are gimmicks to distract you from the phone being plastic - which is both bad for the environment and you. Lack of solid IP rating also means that the phone may be shorter loved than if you bought a proper phone from a company that has its priorities straight.

[@ntad6580]

The fingerprint sensor on it works flawlessly and super fast for me, maybe you got a bad unit?

[@GalacticBeacons]

Just for the info, that power off/on animation isn't nothing's addition, it's from AOSP since A12 or A13 😅 Other OEMs probably disable this, like some other useful AOSP features, for example, notification history.

[@lores996]

[@MomonosukeKozuki]

@@dmandman9 Me with a case: 😏

[@dmandman9]

@@MomonosukeKozuki I actually use rugged phones that don't need a case. The edges around the screen are raised, and they're rated IP68 and IP69K. It' supposedly meets MIL 810G. Most new rugged phones meet MIL 810 H. I think thats includes vibration standards. It's rated to be able to stand a 5 foot drop on smooth concrete without damage. Supposedly it can endure being under 5 ft water for 30 minutes and has the ability to take photos under water. But the main reason I get a rugged phone vs a case on a regular phone is because rugged phones often have unique features such as an infrared camera and/or a thermal imaging camera. Both can take pictures in complete darkness. I also have a battery that can last 2 days with moderate use. The disadvantage is that most are Chinese and have no local support if there's an issue and come with few updates. But I like them. And wish the few name brand rugged phones available at USA carriers had the unique features. But they only have the rugged capabilities but nothing else stands out. And their specs are middling for the price.

[@SauravKumar-ko5od]

I've been following the channel for past 7-8yrs maybe. Whenever you'd drop a video I'd prepare my meal and sit down watchin the vid like a movie or smthn after having college all day. Lately I've been feeling that vibe has been drifting away from the channel. You've started so many cool projects but suddenly move on to the next one without updating on how it ended. The electric hummer series was awesome in the start and mid but I kinda dont know what happened towards the end cuz there was no final conclusion and it was felt even more in the underground bunker project. Some videos nowadays feel like I see it on my KZbin feed and decide to make a pass cuz it doesn't look I'll be interested. I can understand there are millions other who might want to watch that atleast I hope so. For me the channel was about opening stuff to find out how it works and learn about the amazing tech inside and also build stuff. But now vids like cybertruck bullet test, charging ford with tesla charger, longest range electric trucks...I mean I did not associate your channel with such content. Dont get me wrong I'm not complaining (nagging maybe a little) but thats all because I as a follower have been associating your content as a source to know more about tech and and learn from your experiences in the smaller projects I undertake. Bring back the old content where you'd just open up stuff to see how it works and also about the projects if you have something interesting going on.
