$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.

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.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

Because its an ad and Im alergic to ads.

I didnt downvoted it, but thought about it.

Does it matter why people downvoted this?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

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

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 agree it’s not important. I’m more curious than anything. I have a running buzz word list that I know will incite down votes and anger. I’m guessing Samsung is now on that list. Or I’ll find out when I post a MKBHD video again and it’s about some foss only custom rom capable phone and it’s still downvoted. 

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (2 children)

No, The question is, Why buy when I already have a perfectly good phone?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

So people don't think you are a peasant, obviously.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

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)

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

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.
