"I actually used a phone this year that got me not two but three full days of like all day carefree high brightness mixed use. like 10 plus hours of screen on time from a 7300 mAh battery. This phone has me so excited about what the next years of smartphones could turn into."

Pro Display XDR Pro Display XDR

"As someone who's been using a Mac Pro and a Pro Display XDR since they came out, the immediate first thought when I saw these announced was, should I be switching to the Mac Studio and the Studio Display XDRs?"

MacBook Pro MacBook Pro

"The Studio Display XDR specifically is a much better pair with the MacBook Pro. Now there are lots of other options for monitors that you could get to pair with your Apple computer."

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra

"This is officially the best video stabilization I've ever seen in a smartphone. So, as long as you turn on this S26 Ultra's horizon lock right there and hit record, you can have the least steady hands in the world."

Final Cut Pro Final Cut Pro

"It's because of the way I've edited in Final Cut Pro for like the last decade. So you can blame Final Cut Pro for this, but I have a mouse and a magic trackpad."

"you can watch Zack from JerryRigEverything's video because he also got one and he took those screws and took them out"
Bluey Phone by VTech recommends product
"This is a good minimal phone, especially for the price. It's undercutting the competition by, from what I can tell, quite a bit."
From: Bluey Phone Review ▶ 4:06 Apr 2026
MacBook Neo recommends product
"The MacBook Neo, which is one of the best deals in tech in a long time, 600 bucks and more efficient and more capable and better built than almost every other laptop in that price range."
From: The Windows Laptop Problem ▶ 0:07 Mar 2026
Nothing Phone 4A recommends product
"Two of the most compelling new budget phones available right now. The 4a is where it's at."
Studio Display XDR recommends product
"If you want the best possible display to complement the MacBook Pro for that one cable plugin and come to life desk setup, it's this one."
Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Pro recommends product
"These are incredible. I think they're better than AirPods Pros... as of right now, these are the ones to beat. My favorite wireless earbuds 2026."
Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra recommends product
"My take is the Ultra feels like a little bit of a refresh and it's a cool place to try this privacy screen thing. I'm very excited to see it in person and try it out, looks pretty sick!"
Privacy Display recommends product
"That's genuinely really sick! This is a hardware-level control over the pixels on the display that can be turned on or off whenever."
Quick Share recommends software
"Quick Share works natively like with AirDrop. If you have Apple devices and Google Pixels, they can file share between them and it's kind of sweet."
OnePlus 7T Pro recommends product
"I think my favorite OnePlus phone of all time would be the OnePlus 7T Pro. That thing I genuinely believe I could still use today and be totally happy with."
Circle to Search recommends software
"Circle to Search is one of the absolute most useful AI features to me of the entire last 5 plus years where you can circle whatever's on your screen."
Gemini recommends software
"I think Gemini on Android phones is already really good. They've looped in now a lot of the old Google Assistant features. So Gemini as a product is really good."
Epic Spaceman recommends person
"this is Epic Spaceman, one of my favorite creators and of course a massive help with this video"

Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 recommends product
"In trying to make my point that the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 was really, really good"

Samsung Galaxy Z Tri Fold recommends product
"This is a device that's actually starting to make foldables make sense to me. For the right person who knows what they're getting into, this can be worth it."
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 recommends product
"If you deleted all the slab phones in the world somehow and made me daily drive something that folds, it would be this one. Not because it's the thinnest or has the best specs or the best cameras. It doesn't. But it's just it's the most rock solid across the board and usable as a daily in every way."

iPhone Air recommends product
"What they've ended up with is a phone that feels crazy. It feels impossibly light. It looks impossibly thin. It kind of resembles a piece of jewelry in many ways, but also really appeals to the minimalist in me. It's just one of those phones that feels so good in the hand and is so impressive."
From: Smartphone Awards 2025! ▶ 18:24 Dec 2025
iPhone 17 Pro recommends product
"The iPhone 17 Pro which also leveled up again this year both in the photo and video departments. The larger main sensor looks really good. They also bumped to a 4x telephoto which I think is the right move. And these iPhones are still the undisputed king of video."
From: Smartphone Awards 2025! ▶ 9:36 Dec 2025
CMF Phone 2 Pro recommends product
"For $279, this phone is modular, cheap, and fun. They built a phone that feels like it's literally double the price. This is a 6.8 inch 120 Hz screen that's actually good-looking and bright. There's a 5,000 mAh battery, so the life is actually pretty good."
From: Smartphone Awards 2025! ▶ 11:34 Dec 2025
iPhone 17 recommends product
"Shout out to the base iPhone 17 for finally stepping up to the plate and doing all the things that the base iPhone should. Flagship chip, really good cameras, great software obviously, but also the new promotion display, a massively upgraded selfie camera, some kind of sweet new colors. It's actually a good deal this time around."
