Be honest, you didn't win a lottery, you cancelled your Tesla order.
I'm so happy for the 16e guy winning the lottery. He's always had such a rough time, it's good to see him finally get a win. He's a good egg.
I really love the skits as the intro, it's honestly a great addition and helps stand out against other creators! Love how the content is still growing and adapting (Because of this I now expect a full fledge story on the lottery winner character with every phone review)
The wife and I just went from the iPhone 8plus to the base 17 and we couldn’t be happier!
great to see mustachekbhd has made a return
the dual-marques intro! it's been a while... so glad to see you(s)
0:35 Look, it's Mario Brownlee!
iPhone being more affordable than an android is something I would have never guessed in a million years
Just set mine up today. Went from a 13 Pro Max to a 17. Loving this. It’s brighter, louder, also doesn’t feel like a brick. You barely notice some of the screen size you give up.
It’s so nice to hear a detailed review spoken in a normal, conversational tone and not high-energy shouting to keep viewers ‘engaged’. Top quality review as always, thanks Marques!
