Back when the IPhone 6 was considered “big”.
True. We went from saying: my phone has a big 4.7inch display to my phone having a small 5.8 inch display
@@demoiwright4031 so u have the 10? 10s? 11pro?
@@noahfischer9347 I don't
@@noahfischer9347 she have Android 6.3inch
@@noahfischer9347 do you got the s10e?
2014: "The 5.5 inch iPhone 6+ is massive!"
2020: "The iPhone 12 Mini has a super tiny 5.4 inch display"
The ratio is different... the 6+ is wider
earlier bezels used take up a lot of space, now that space is used up by screen.
our hand sizes are the same so phone size wont change much
@@MessiForever-q9l yeah no shit Sherlock
Because screens are much bigger nowadays, it's not 16:9 and less bezels nowadays.

“It shouldn’t bend in your pocket or anything”. Rest is history.
Yash Patel going to say
Yeah as long as you used it like a phone should be used (i.e. not sitting on it in your back pocket like a moron) no there was no bend issue... unless you intentionally tried to bend it. Didn’t exist then, doesn’t exist now.
okay most of them literally never bent, i still use mine in 2020 and it never once bent
@@magicman322 don't chat shit.
I was searching for tis comment
This literally just got recommended to me randomly...if you told me this video was made recently as a throwback vid I would believe it. The consistency of the video format being so similar to current vids never ceases to amaze. You deserve the success you have Marques! Can't wait to see you what else you got cooking up for the future!

I don't see any of your reviews on RUclips!?
Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony Android, iOS, Windows, Blackberry. Then, everything changed when the Apple Nation attacked. Only the Nokia, master of all four platforms, could stop them, but when the world needed him most, he vanished.
Omg i love you. Lol

InstantGotMoney yea. I recently just bought myself the iPhone 11 Pro Max and wondered how far has iPhone gone in terms of advancement. So I just searched this video up. Amazing to believe that people once thought the iPhone 6 was SUPER revolutionary.

This will and always be the guy I’ll believe in when it comes to tech. Thank you for sharing the knowledge throughout this year.

These were already high quality reviews back in the day. Impressive.
Did you android fans hear that? It only has a dual core processor with 1GB of ram, but performs like a quad core with 3 gigs of ram. When it comes to Apple, specs don't matter, because they optimize the shit out of their hardware and software. I only bring this up because I always see comments laughing at the specs of the iPhone, when in reality, better specs doesn't mean a better phone.
Sureeeee...my take: they save On the RAM/processing power and save millions yet you'll still buy it.
***** we still buy it because we don't like android. is it a crime to like something that you don't like? of course not and you especially do not have the right to condemn people for buying something you don't like.
ronald swanson Exactly. Why do people care so much about what phones other people buy? It's ridiculous when you think about what some people's lives have come down to. Hating others because of the CELL PHONE they buy. It's really sad to see.

see how a proper review is, not biased. nothing like iverge good review *****
💀 back of members bro
THIS is wrong. This iPhone has got to be one of the shittiest smartphones EVER.
-The new design absolutely SUCKS ass.
-The new processor is only MARGINALLY better than the A7 processor.
-The screen resolution is just plain PATHETIC. Little over 720p in 2014?...
-And the iOS 8 is just more of the SAME.
But if you feel like dropping big bucks on this crap just remember, it's not even SHINY anymore...
Design is opinion based
Processor yes is only a little bit better
screen resolution is better than 720p its 750p, but yes it should be 1080p minimum
iOS 8 works well in what it does.
Well, the screen resolution is actually a bit higher than 720p, so you're wrong there.
Your painfully biased, you know? I do not like iPhones, but I admit that they do have their own perks. While the iPhone will always be an overpriced status item to me, I respect that others like it and I can see why.
Most of everything you said Miguel is wrong. I hope you weren't being serious with your comment.
It's 750p resolution....
It’s 2023 now. Looking back at the time in life during this generation, it was a blast.
If you guys are wondering why this video is general and not as in-depth as his other reviews, it's because it's iPhone. He's making this video for Apple people. They don't know anything about technology. They just need to hear that it's an okay device. Although Marq disappointed me a little. I can't believe he stated that optimization is why the weak CPU runs iPhones so well.
iPhones run so well on a weak processor because they don't do nearly as much as other phones. iOS is very primitive and locked down. No multitasking. No widgets.
Apple had to put a motion chip in the phone because the dual core processor isn't capable enough on its own. It's not optimization. It is indeed a weak processor.
The CPU is capable of a lag-free experience, but if that experience is basic and simplistic, it's nothing to brag about.
Giving me no lag just scrolling through apps is expected. Giving me no lag when I scroll by just looking or waving my hand, no lag when I run two apps plus 5 mini Windows with pop up video all simultaneously, no lag when you convert my chicken scratch to legible handwriting, no lag when I use motion gestures! that's an accomplishment. The gimmick debate is one for another day, but the technology is still incredible in and of itself and getting that to run smoothly is entirely different from getting gridded icons to run smoothly.
It's not that the phone has bad tech, it's just that apple hasn't made anything new here. Just a bigger screen. Something that was made popular years ago
reznov122 Of course. iPhones aren't bad quality. Just not anything special by any means.
All of my heavily jailbroken devices run like a breeze. Your very dumb for saying that they only run fast cuz they dont have to do much. But go ahead and support the weak OS
All you've described in your last paragraph is more or less like a Galaxy phone? Well..they may have more raw power but I hope you know that among most big flagships, Galaxy phones are not nearly as smooth. :P if I was doing everything you described on a Galaxy S5, it would likely be lagging. Not a lot, but it would certainly lag on occasion.
My friend, knowing how to read a spec sheet and comparing clock numbers is not knowing tech. I'm no expert myself, but the iPhone does not have "simple software". The experience is simplistic, that's all. That's a whole different statement right there. And yes, the iPhone does have awesome optimization with all its components. Look at the overall battery of this and past iPhones. The battery size is often small indeed, and the full experience is quite lacking. But, for instance, how do you think iPhones get that amazing standby time? I have an iPod Touch, a pretty outdated device(the worst Apple hardware accepted for iOS 8), and the battery on standby is worlds better than my Nexus 5. That's because like Marques says on the videos where he talks about Apple, Apple controls the whole process, that's why it's like that and that's why iPhones don't need high clock numbers to work well.
"Ios is primitive".... silly boy... you, my friend, are obviously not a programmer and have no clue what you are talking about.
And yes it is "optimization" (among other things), you can't even launch an app for ios if it didn't meet the standards of cpu usage etc. ides for making ios apps monitor everything you do, while on android you can do whatever the fuck you want, which is not because it's better but because of huge variety of phones so you can't accomplish control.
Also every app works better on iphone, even those really advanced, just check games and their framerate (like Amazing spiderman 2 for example which is one of the hardest on processor), even iphone 5s runs better than lets say Galaxy S5 (or any other flagship android), and no it's not cos of resolution: ipad air has the same cpu and runs higher than 1080p and it is still smoother than on lower resolution android with 2.5 ghz quad processor.
Chip in this phone is superior to your sweet loving Snapdragon 801 for example, but I guess you are one of those kids that just read higher number before ghz and number of cores, so by that logic quad 2.4 is better than 1.4 dual, but it's not.
Ram is managed a lot better than on androids due to better running apps and few other details, so you are more likely to feel the lack of ram with 3 gb android than on 1 gb iphone, I hope you understand that.
And no not everything runs smoother because of lower resolution, as I said, ipad air has 2048 x 1536 and older processor than iphone 6 and it still runs every single thing better than lower 1080p of android.
And what is that more advanced thing that android does and because of what you consider iphone as weak and primitive? Because of widgets?
I wont comment on multitasking, I hope you understand by now what nonsense you are telling.
Google fanboy kids are becoming worse than Apple fans ever been.

I honestly don't care if someone owns and loves iPhone, but to say it is better than any flagship Android phone is just ridiculous. Even a year old Nexus 5 is proven to be faster, even with animations turned off (for those who say iPhone's animations are slow).
No one cares
Cheikh White well, apparently you do.. :'D
Bojan Tomic haha nice one!! (y)
I can’t believe how crispy your audio was even way back in time. Amazing
Is it me or my whole school has an iphone 6 and im the only one with an android
My school is like 90% iphone
it's ok I have a android. it's just that by default apple is a very popular brand and who wouldn't love a IPhone. I love them but I love android for durability which samsung has provided to me for 2 years.
Same here I'm like the only person in my year that has an android phone
Mine is the EXACT OPPOSITE, I think I am one of the few who use a iPhone on my school, mostly are androids... like they are 95%
+Matthew Gromia im 14 next friday.... and i dont even own a phone!!! lollololl
I'll start this off by admitting that I am Android bias, but I am not a mindless sheep so I watch videos about and keep up with what's going on with Apple as well. I think one of the biggest things that annoy me about people who defend iphones is that they are ill-informed with the current Android phones and software. I think many people still think of 2010 Androids which I admit was pretty...clunky both hardware and software-wise. I guess one of the things I can admit Apple has done better is marketing because each upgrade to either the ios or iphone is so hyped that everyone knows about it while so many people don't know about the awesomeness that is Android currently.
Anyways, I enjoyed this video regardless, but I look forward to your review of the Note 4. I'm pre-ordering mine this week to upgrade from my Galaxy S4 (:
I know all about Android phones, I just don't care about them.
BobIsBetterThanYou This is how I feel about iPhones. I know about them and keep up with them but don't like them and don't care for them. I'm glad you have a developed and informed opnion as well. I'm only bother by people who form opinions without actual knowledge about both sides.
Max Proasheck Oh god... My first android was the HTC Evo Shift 4G (back when they felt they needed to specify it could use 4G hahah). I don't think it was much better. I believe it had 512 mb of ram...
Note 4 is awesome.
David Johnson Haha yeah I played with it for a bit in store last weekend. Felt awesome to hold and the display was great. I'm super excited.
This get recomended October 2021. I'm glad Marques and his team has remained to produce the same high quality content along the years, the work and dedication has really shown. Well Done!

At least Apple is consistent, giving their consumers the same stuff every year
Doesn't Samsung do the same thing?
Airyl Jaszly samsung atleast upgrades the hardware... i mean cmon... it's 2014 and apple goes with dualcore and 1gb of ram :D and then you pay like 700$ for that.
inkinen I don't really mind the specs since it performs fine, but the price is kind of a rip off. At least it works though. I mean, watch the review. It's clearly a pretty good phone. If only Apple could focus less on uber profit all the time.
***** Android doesn't mean Samsung.. Heard of HTC or nexus?? Or even Motorola? Samsung is crap, I agree but that doesn't define android..
***** Lots of cheap Android phones can best the Galaxy S5. The Xiaomi Mi4, the OnePlus One and the Nexus 5 all perform better than the S5, and they all also cost half of the GS5's price tag.
iPhone came out when I was in 6th grade I remember it was the first "big thing" I ever wanted tech wise. Dope

It is.... I just ordered it yesterday.
What bothers me is all the Android fans that think anyone who chooses another platform is ignorant. Believe it or not, besides the millions of iSheep, their are hundreds of millions of people that review the phones and choose iPhone because it's best for them.
They just hate to admit that iphones is more smooth running and better looking. Besides all the negative attention (bendgate, ios 8, and icloud hacking) apple is making improvements. I can see it. Pretty soon android users will have nothing to talk about when the apple is done playing "catch up". Androids are more advanced phones but it serves no purpose to me because we all have laptops and desktop computers. Why do we need a phone to operate like a computer.

all the android users are SO JEALOUS right now. downplaying the iphone 6 while their android lags all over the place lol
Nexus 5 with ART, no lag, doesn't bend, €300.
LG G3, no lag... YES there are Android phones that lag, but there the lower spec ones that are a fraction of the cost. You can't compare an iPhone to a cheap Android phone. Look at the flagship phones that don't lag.
The point is - the iPhone 6 Plus isn't worth $900. The specs are equivalent to a $100 Chinese Android phone. Even the build quality is simillar. It bends ffs. I know it's faster but you're still giving Apple more money than you should.

Original comment. No one else on here has made this joke
That is incredible, watching this video shows how much phones have evolved, the software on it and how much MKBHD has grown to the 6.7 inch phones of today
I think you kept the gloves on in this video, Marques, and I for one am dissapointed. Clearly you're not analyzing this as harshly as you analyze many Android phones... and that's the entire reason I watch your videos. This comment you make at the end: "Solid phone, Apple"... Is it really when considering the competition, or are you comparing this purely to the past renditions of the same product?
1) What about the sub-par resolution the new iPhones feature? The iPhone 6 has a 720p resolution... that is a big deal considering everyone loves HD media. And on the 6 plus, we see 1080p, but the competition for that category of phone (phablet) is well into QHD now with the competition.
2) How about the NFC? Apple has implemented this technology, but you can't beam photos and videos like you can on Android. This is another huge feature that's lacking here.
3) The camera is not significant in any way, you're buying into Apple's hype here. It's not bad, but it's also not the best by any overall standard measuring the overall quality of images produced. (background: Brooks photo graduate)
There are quite a few more things to cover, but these are the major three that slapped me right across the face when I learned about them, or read the nonsensical hype.
I think your only criticizing the bad points which he has made. Why don't you go home and rethink your Android Fanboy life?
He commented on the screen saying it's great
Who needs beaming when you have airdrop?
The camera is great
The camera IS great.
Isn't the whole premise of Android beam so that you can use NFC to initiate a WiFi direct connection? Considering iOS isn't going to implement the Android Beam protocol anyway, why use NFC to initiate a transfer when AirDrop does it without phone contact?
Who said you can't consume HD media? 750p is above 720p, but most importantly, the density has reached a level at that point which will deliver an experience beyond the definition we have set regarding "HD". What really matters is pixel density and PPI and 326 is well above a level where you will get a great experience. There are subpar 1080p displays out there with terrible color reproduction, viewing angles and those that use a pentile matrix. Will you look past that simply because you're stuck on a resolution? There are several factors that make a good display and both Anandtech and DisplayMate said the iPhone 6 has the best LCD display to date and it's also considered to be one of the best displays out there on the market.
2. I'm not going to adress this given the simple fact that Apple has their own proprietary standard. It's a price you pay for their ecosystem.
3. You say the camera is hardly improved based on the fact that you are a Brooks photo graduate? Really? Not to dismiss your knowledge, but how about backing your reasons up with legitimate sources and well-known/respected publications? The camera is considered to be one of the best on the market, if not the best if you take in all aspects (Lumia 1020 is fantastic, but with slow autofocus and picture taking).
Great review Marques as always, you might be the best tech reviewer I know man!. I'm an Android user and I like it so much, but that doesn't really mean that I'm an Android fanboy, I'm here for the review not for the debate between Android vs Apple as both have pros and cons. Umm... anyway, good job MKBHD!
Completely agree. I think the best reviewers know how to not get caught up in the fanboy rubbish.
Watching this in 2020 and he’s like “yea its really big” iphone 6 vs samsung s20 ultra
Can’t wait to upgrade from my 13 Pro Max to this. Great review
It’s fun watching these older reviews
Watching an MKBHD video in 360p just feels wrong. I'll come back later.
iPhones, and Apple in general, cause people to act very very weird. I'm not talking about the Apple fanboys and those who wait in line for hours on end to buy an iPhone, I'm actually talking about those who have an obsessive hatred of Apple. I have an HTC, I prefer it. The iPhone is good, too, but I'll stick to what I prefer and get on with my life. Whereas you have these people who get the red mist whenever they see Apple mentioned and they have to leap in to announce to everyone that they personally do not like Apple, and even go as far as flinging insults at those who DO like Apple products. This is very weird, rabid, frenzied behaviour and it is coming from those of you who have an irrational hatred of Apple, not those Apple fanboys you deride. Get a grip and live and let live. You're throwing abuse at people due to their choice of mobile phone. It is utterly pathetic behaviour
.
Its pretty ridiculous, I completely agree.
AGREED!
People have the right to their opinion. The thing is if apple where soo good and not contreversial whe would all be using iphones....but we don't. Many people and Apple too see their inovating features On their phones as they were groundbreaking yet they simply are not...the list goes on....and on
It's something to do with the ludicrous hype that surrounds every launch.
I own Apple stuff (iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air) and a bunch of Android stuff including the latest Shield Tablet - I prefer iOS greatly to Android. But I don't hate Android or I wouldn't own 6 Android devices. The fanboys are just obnoxious no matter who they're "rooting" for.
The quality of MKBHD videos are just beautiful.
Hey MKBHD great review! However there were a few things you left out about the iPhone 6:
1. faster wifi (802.11 ac)
2. Faster LTE with more bands (important for people that travel a lot)
3. Apple Pay (coming in October)
4. NFC (exclusive to apple pay for now but that will probably be opened up with iOS 9 (lol))
5. Other minor additions like recording slow-mo at 240 fps (vs 120 fps with older iPhones)
Some of these might be minor, but I believe they are important things for people thinking about upgrading to know :) thanks for your hard work and hope that hand heals up soon!
I was an Apple loyalist until the 4 came out and switched to Android. I have used HTC, Nexus, and Samsung phones for the past few years switching phones at least once a year, if not more. I recently switched to the iPhone 6 because I wasn't happy with any of my S4, S5, or Note 4 battery life. I have been adamant for years that Apple was superior in everything else but phones and was sure I'd never switch back. Spec game aside, the iPhone 6 is the first phone that made me want to come back and had debated it for months much to the dismay of my loyal Android friends. I'm actually surprised because my battery life is amazing and lasts all day when my Note 4 was dead before 5pm. Perhaps I had a bad unit but that would mean Samsung has been personally targeting me for 3 years now lol. Do I miss the flexibility and customizations of Android? Yes. Do I miss the Google integration? A little bit (I don't use it heavily). Do I miss waiting for carrier updates and having to flash custom ROM's to get them, get rid of carrier bloat, or to optimize efficiency and battery life? No. The Apple vs Android debate is old. There is no one phone that is better than the other. There is just the one phone that works better for you and as much as I have loved Android in the past few years, I'm happy I "downgraded" to the iPhone because all I needed was a phone that lasts all day.
I think it lasts all day because new Android phones are 1080p and 1440p and Android is more intensive than ios, and hence uses more battery
+Julie Phan The Android customization is too over the top for me. I know it's there but never use it. Thinking of switching to iPhone for the simplicity and crispness of the phone. Android becomes a mashup of things because there is too much that is useless. And the things that are useful, iOS does better.
+Julie Phan your note 4 had bad battery life? interesting, most poeple i've seen get better batter life than my nexus 5.
+Jacob Woods if u want crispinesss then its not the place ... I really disappointed with 6 display coming from note 4 it looks nowhere near good as it .... But i do love the device ... Been a lifelong android user ....
Note 4's battery life is okay for me if you ask me
Who still has a iPhone 6 in 2019
me
Me too
2020 yall
i have the 11 👀
6S
Man, this is so nostalgic to watch now, comparing it to the 16 Pro review. How interesting the change of times
Am i the only person who likes the color gold on an iPhone 6
I just got GOLD iPhone 6 early bday gift ^^
My favorite colors are gold & black ..so badass
IKR
No,I love it I got it yesterday!
Yes. I like I have a 6 64gb in gold and I like it better than the 5s was in gold. It's more of a champaign color and sometimes even has a pink-ish tint on the 6.
Yeah the gold on 5s has that champaign gold the gold on 6 is better
I cry, I still have a 4s
Same
Get a 5...it will change your life lol old school but has lte and can run iOS 9.2
+1King Steve I'm getting a 6s soon
Me too , still 4s
just got iphone 6s yesterday.. lol
I upgraded from a 6s to a 12 a few weeks ago and omg the difference is crazy😅
I’m so bored I’m binge watching MKBHD iPhone reviews 🙂
As always, very articulate, well presented and to the point review. You do great reviews Marques, always a pleasure to watch them.
I just realized... Apple is apple.. they don't need groundbreaking new tech or innovations for people to hype over and buy their products. The iphone 6 and 6 plus are OK. They are a step forward. And i guess there is a large community for apple. (telling by the sales of the phone so far). People just get excited for apple, which is the biggest thing that in my mind drives android handsets to push the limits of chips, screen resolutions etc. I still have an iphone 5 and a nexus 7 2013 so i can't say im a fanboy of either, cuz i like both. But i will be getting the nexus 6 or note 4 when it comes out. There are just some things i can't do with an i device. Still the fact that i can't put a song from my computer to my iphone by just dragging it into a folder is mind-boggling for me. I am going to stick for the foreseeable future with android, doesn't mean that apple is bad, it just means i am a little more tech savy than my mom for example hehe :)
neither os requires one to be tech savy
Nice comment. I prefer android too cause of more accessibility, but iPhones are still good phones. It's just down to personal preference.
Minkailu Lamin man I'm in the gray of what phone I'm gonna get next I like the over all smoothness of the iPhone but I like the customizability of android and the notifications (not a fan of iOS notifications) but its either moto x 2nd or iPhone 6 plus the battery is actually good in 6 plus and ehhh on the moto x but what would you get?
Zach Spoon Sony Xperia Z3 or LG G3
YazeedSaber Sony isn't with Verizon and I don't like the cluttered ui of g3
The camera actually protrudes a little that's how thin it is, at just 6.9 mm"
Galaxy s22 ultra: 8.9mm thick with another 2mm camera protrusion
This just popped into my youtube home page. Legendary, Marques!
I must be the only one who thinks the iPhone 6 is slightly uglier than the 5s :( It still looks really nice, but those painted lines on the back simply don't look good.
I'm pretty sure you need those lines... it's for the phone signal.
Alan Wang they're still ugly
Daniel Salazar lol ok well I hope you enjoy your "pretty phone" that gets no signal... I have an HTC one and I don't mind the bands at all
Alan Wang Enjoy what "pretty phone"? I'm not a manufacture of phones, I couldn't just go make one without the bands. I've had an HTC One and the bands weren't as bad as on the iPhone 6. I currently have a Nexus 5 and it's a different design with no visible bands. I'm not saying the bands aren't needed, I'm just saying that they're ugly.
Did you seriously just call them painted lines 😐
Idk why Android users come to an IPHONE review to spread their negative opinions and insult iPhone users :/
Coz its the truth
Son Resca No, because they just can't stand the fact that what they prefer is not the same thing that others prefer. Sorry but based on you premise, there are different truths for every person.
I shall patiently sit here and wait for 4k to be available.
Approximately 56 minutes later... waiting slightly less patiently than before.
How’s it going man
Watching this with my iPhone 13 pro max, I can’t wait for this phone to come out!
just a person who Ioves both apple and Samsung passing through
Just a person with a standard call only phone posting a comment on your comment.
^ That isn't standard... That's degenerative dumbphone...
Spaghetti Monster Still gets the main job done....Calling. But I do admire the tech of these Phone I'll never buy cause I have this bulshit self law in my brain who prefers laptops/PC better. -also cause I have big fingers, so phones aren't best for browsing or games-
stop lying to yourself
Anyone getting this recommended in RUclips 9 years later?
no i just decided to search “iphone 6 unboxing 2014”😭
2019 here and that Instagram icon is so nostalgic
KwasnikPictures they need to bring back the old logo🤣
Loved those images!!!! Better than many photos clicked by phones in 2020!
Isheep
@@ΦιλιπποςΧατζηεργατης bro i use samsung phones only and only android, because i love customization. Definitely not iSheep😂😂😂 but i am thinking about buying iphone XR... Which iphone will you suggest? Have you used iPhone before? I am a student.
I would suggest you buy the iphone 11 or maybe the iphone se 2020 if you want an iPhone under 500 $
@@AvaneeshSrivastava-lm5vj but both of them are trash in my opinion because both of these phones
use a non FHD display and and they also use an LCD display instead of an amoled
@@ΦιλιπποςΧατζηεργατης ummm yeah you're right...... And since i have been using sAmoled for many years now i will notice it also...... I think i should just buy another samsung phone ... Like galaxy a51 or a71. Thanks for your suggestion tho.
Android users are like terrorists,
No one else can have opinions different from theirs lmao
yeah! (:
Like sheep? ..... Okay
But in reality iPhone was the first phone of it's kind and ANDROID followed along .
Ray Courtez Ray, try googling the LG Prada. IPhone was not first I'm afraid...
My mistake but it was revolutionary unlike the androids
why am i getting recommended this in 2024
All of you people fighting over the iphone 6 and note 4 and the htc one m8 and I'm just sitting here clenching my s4 mini while holding back tears haha.
ConsciousN Trill he didn't even say anything offensive why tf are you overreacting lmao
ConsciousN Trill I smell a troll.
It's funny because I purchased that phone with my own money, you know, the kind you make at a job. It was a joke, I'm happy about my phone, I just wanted to comment how all of these people keep fighting back and forth about $800 phones haha.
If you took my comment that literally, then you should feel a bit worried about your personality...
andy1cool1 It is pretty offensive to say you were crying about having a phone that is like 300 bucks.. And I got it he was joking but still jokes like that should be made by people still using non touch screen smartphones lmfao..
Back here in year 2024. MKBHD is still a talented young man.
"Shouldn't bend in your pocket or anything." Oh the irony is real.
This series was iconic and the hype was real
I’m happy with my 12PM doe
No 3.5m jack doe. Gonna get the 13 soon but ill miss my 6s. If you notice these phones keep getting worse not better i remember when i upgraded to 6s from 5 the iphone 5 had a better sound chip it was louder and bassier. But its 2021 ill get used to whatever they throw at us.
Watching this on my iphone 6 in 2019.
Watching this on my 14... wow time flies, I remember the day I got the 6 and thought it was incredible, as it was! Apple sure has come a long way.
