phone repair guru actually looked into it, the weak point on the back glass is due to the metal plate that all other parts are anchored to isnt directly attached to the glass this year. even on the 14 and 15 where they open from the back the metal backplate is attached to the glass and for those they have another backplate just behind the display for all the components to attach to

[@NameName-ll2yx]

So the glass is easier/cheaper to replace but weaker? F. Never cared about the obscene cost of repairs as they always were covered by basic home insurance, which happens to be mandatory anyway for most.

[@NothingXemnas]

As if one giant glass plate on one side wasn't enough, Apple has 2, both of which can be broken if it is dropped. I understand we already use phone cases (for any smartphone, really), but you can't justify the use of titanium to compensate for more weakpoints. I mean... smartphones will always be dropped.

Different actions for the action button in different focus modes is my suggestion for features. I mean, if you go to the movies all the time, set a geolocation focus for movies and set it to ring/silent, during work you can have it set to open a specific app or maybe flashlight depending on what you do for work, then have a vacation focus that makes the action button a camera quickdraw. That would just make it perfect along with Linus's idea for the double press or hold. Certainly miles better than the backtap feature

I think when testing any phone, iPhone, Samsung, Pixel, etc. maybe having the Software version listed as well could also be helpful. I know when new phones rollout there are always hot fixes in terms of updates so testing on an older version versus a new version could lead to slight discrepancies. It could also be negligible but I do feel like it could help those who look at the charts have a better overall understanding.

[@Nova2127U]

Actually, it seems the reason for the immediate glass break in Zack's (JerryRigEverything) test was due to the fact that Apple moved a support metal bracket from the back glass to the actual frame of the phone itself, which severely weakens that glass's rigidity.

Not much more expensive than an iphone 15 with its $30's worth per phone of grade 5 titanium gimmick. I don't understand the praise for iphone other than it looks pretty. Aside preference of the UI (despite all the restrictions), maybe people have bad experiences with cheap Androids?

Funny how after the recent controversy especially ShortCircut videos are still littered with misinformation. The 15 Pro is never manufactored in India, only the 15, therefore is this theory bs. Just as the battery. "We were getting nowhere 23 hours with KZbin playback", kinda expected if Apple clearly states that 23 hours is local playback and up to 20 hours of AppleTV playback. AppleTV is using different codes then KZbin is and therefore again lighter on the battery. Just saying "ugh but ~18 hours is not 23 hours of youtube playback" is both dumb and factually wrong.

I’d like to see some cases with a built in ssd. Could save a lot of money. Or I just rubber band one to it when I’m using it with my dragonfly for lossless. More nostalgia that way anyway I suppose lol

[@Entertainment-]

The Dragonfly was already possible with Lightning

[@odinsplaygrounds]

I was interested and planning on upgrading to this... but while some overheating issues can likely be sorted in software, the fragile back glass is really making me have second thoughts about it. It breaks so easily, even when dropped from just hip height. Just a small bend as well is enough. Just don't wanna buy a device I have to keep fix...

[@AndrewPL5]

Do you not put a case on your phone??

[@vespuccini]

small bend is not enough... also the glass backs on all the other iphones break too

[@odinsplaygrounds]

@@vespuccini They don't break as easily. The glass back broke on both Pro and Pro Max dropped from hip weight in testing. Same test with iPhone 13 Pro and Pro max and none of them broke, in fact they even survived being dropped from head height without breaking the back.

[@alexholiday441]

It’s a non issue to majority buyers. I have and always will use a case regardless of what phone I’m using so drops aren’t a big deal.

[@KayJay01]

Who's going around bending their phones? lol

Would have been nice to see this before recommending the iPhone 15 pro on the other video, but I understand not wanting to influence the suggestions.

[@zytoses9223]

not sure how long its been a thing but samsung does have this feature (on the 23 anyway) hold the power button and you get a configue button option and you can choose any app you want to open with double tap.

[@kunalchandrakar4741]

If there are complaints about overheating,then why didn't they test it for heating ? 🤨🤨🤨

[@Nedlius]

if it had a headphone jack, microSD slot, and a removeable battery, then we'd be in business

[@RyTrapp0]

That would get me into an iPhone for the first time ever - especially if we got a legit DAC I could bet all of my future life's earnings on that not happening and feel 100% safe though, lmao

[@lupolinar]

So, what Phone do you use, as most modern Phone don't do that.

[@RyTrapp0]

@@lupolinar An LG V60 that's on its last leg lmao. And, today, there's just no alternative to it - if you're into these sorts of hardware features, you can only downgrade from here. Before LG(had the V20, V30, and V60; far from perfect but killer hardware), my preferred brand was HTC. Who also had nice phones and did some against-the-grain stuff. Who also quit the phone business because it was like me and two other people buying them. Ugh.

[@Nedlius]

@@lupolinar You're right, most modern phones don't have all of those features, and neither does mine. I have the ZenFone 8, which only has the headphone jack of the features I mentioned, which is the most important of the 3 to me. To my knowledge, basically zero modern smartphones have replaceable batteries (really looking forward to seeing the EU's laws bring this back) and only some mid-range or budget phones have microSD card slots, and I guess Sony's flagships still have them. However, this does not stop me from criticizing every single company that decides to release a new phone that still doesn't have these features, including the phones that I buy. Nowadays, I go for the flagship phone that has the most features for a decent price. Last time I was looking for a new phone, I was deciding between Asus, Sony, and ZTE. Next time I shop for a phone, I will likely be deciding between the same companies, since they seem to be the only ones I can think of that release flagship phones that still have features. You better believe that I criticize Asus or whichever company's phone I happen to be using every time they fail to include these awesome features. It would be a dream come true if the EU made a few more consumer tech laws mandating expandable storage like microSD card slots as well as wired audio solutions like 3.5 mm headphone jacks.

[@KitsuneFuzzy]

End with the monitor reminds me of 2012, when I connected my ~200€ android device to my TV and used a bluetooth controller to play Shadowgun. And now in 2023 people are hyped that a 1k+€ phone can finally do that.. what?!

[@catabun3656]

Literally you are showing how iPhones are playing catch-up with Android phones 😂

[@tram1839]

something they need to clear up is whether or not a third party USB C charger will void warranty, if so they need to loose a lot of money to teach them they cant keep getting away with shit like that.

[@stevengoetz6773]

I'd bet it will only void your warranty if it was deemed that the damage was caused by a faulty charger or cable.

[@tram1839]

@@stevengoetz6773 that's not how apple usually does things, if the charging port is damaged in any way, even if it was a manufacturing issue they're still gonna say you did something wrong, they usually don't even investigate what did it and just replace the thing.

The video out feature has been on the iPhone for over a decade albeit you needed to use lighting to HDMI. Can’t expect Linus to know everything but sometimes this is just odd to comment that it’s a new feature. Glad now it’s usb-c for even more compatible adapters.

[@ShortCircuit]

I've personally used an expensive certified lightning to HDMI adapter many times. This matters because it's just ANY random cheap adapter. Freaking awesome -LS

[@ThisOrThat13]

Two things to also note. The drop test showing the camera popping out. That was after the 3rd attempt, not the first. The MAX also has different chipset (A2?) vs the Pro. Meaning that your USB-C data transfer and battery charge will be noticeably faster on the Max.

[@JonnyD3ath]

And it was a glass phone dropped from 20 feet onto stone ffs 😂 I think the drop immediately before it was 15 feet up - never gonna happen IRL

[@ALaModePi]

When I heard about the "action button," I immediately thought about the "Bixby button" on my Samsung phone, but I had the opposite reaction to Linus because the finger-scan button on my Samsung phone does single press, double-tap, and scan finger gestures, all of which can call up specific programs or do OS functions. (I think some of that is part of Samsung's Good Lock program, which adds a lot of other functionality too.) At any rate, Samsung's already got "next level" functionality which Apple seemed to think was good enough to copy. (That happens all the time. I'm not dissing Apple for recognizing a good thing and using it.) With all the varied concerns about "3rd Party" USB cables, it is good to see that Apple now has the same functionality as Android for using headphones, USB A, and video out using that USB-c connection. Having recently had to get an Apple-specific video adapter for someone else, being able to use what's already in my kit is great. Thanks for doing this feature review.

[@KensleyInnocent]

That's exactly my thoughts too. Plus Bixby can too some really advanced actions too. Then theres the single tap of the power button that can be reconfigured.

[@johnsledge3942]

Wow, glad I got a China made one I guess. That USBC engraving detail is cool

Can't believe people are jizzing their pants over being able to mirror your screen and use a usb mic with this new model when I could literally do that on my droid 2 from 2012.

[@nas73603]

It's funny how iPhone supported mirroring the display over HDMI since literal 2010, and noone ever talked about it. They have an official cable for it on their website. I'm certain that if you connected your USB mic to an older iPhone, it would've used it too. I'm amazed how many people never knew that they could do all this on their iPhone, even before USB-C

[@JimmyJames10-k7v]

nobody cares about android bro

[@sinimsdp]

3:12 I'm confused. I have the double press the power button option on my Galaxy S22U and I easily configured mine to turn on the flashlight. (I missed my old motorola chop motion) The settings are easy to access and it can be programmed to open any app on the phone. So I don't see how that has a lack of configurability.

You know there have been apps for Android that can rebind buttons for more than 10 years, right? The fact that you are amazed by the ability to rebind a button says quite a lot about what expectations Apple customers have :D This entire video is Linus being amazed by stuff Androids have been able to do since forever, what is going on.

[@lukas_ls]

You probably didn’t really get the point. It’s about this being implemented directly into iOS with this many features. iOS actually has quiet a lot of features that can be used with that. You can use a kind of scripting language that can automate many different tasks for you

[@Jehty_]

​@@lukas_lsLinus mentioned the lack of configurability on some Android phones. Even if he meant "not directly in the OS" that's at least disingenuous. If there is a simple option (like getting an App) to do it then it doesn't lack that functionality. It still has that functionality.
