"It's basically erased any imperfections and kept the horizon locked. You couldn't tell I was upside down at all."

"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."

"If you thought you were being slick by watching Instagram reels on your Meta AI glasses like I am right now"

"We are all the way at OnePlus 15 now, which solid phone. I've been daily-ing it for a couple months."

"I wouldn't crown it necessarily the absolute best set of smartphone cameras, but I would still crown it the best overall most fun smartphone camera shooting experience that I've ever had."

"This is the world's first ultrasonic chef's knife and I had to try it. So I got my hands on it. The handle will send shock waves through the knife blade at 30,000 times per second."

"I use a tool that I've talked about in the past actually on my Mac called Raycast. And it's awesome."

"They said, no problem. We take PayPal. So, I had to open up PayPal on my computer, send the money to Vertu"

"By the way, no generative AI is being used to create this video. Just a whole lot of Blender."

"I showed the AnTuTu benchmark score for each of these phones next to each other"

"It never lets you pick a better source like the Apple Watch that I'm literally wearing in that review"

"I wish YouTube would bring annotations back. Do you guys remember the annotations feature?"

"This is a real 16 by 9 10-inch landscape tablet that you can literally fold and put into your pocket. It just makes so much more sense than the square."

"This just happens to be the only Samsung phone that they'll let you run Samsung DeX on its own, without being connected to a monitor."

"It was Galaxy S25 Ultra for a long time and then it was Pixel 10 Pro for a long time and now lately it has been OnePlus 15 in my pocket."

"There were a bunch of other foldables that I saw and one other one that I actually daily drove this year for an extended period of time and it was this one, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold. And this one is really nice. While using it closed, it's basically all the goodness of just a regular Pixel 10 Pro."

"People always want to know also what's the phone that I used the most during the year, which I mentioned in a previous video, but I will say it was Galaxy S25 Ultra for a long time."

"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."

"Siri is bad, okay? But it is actually pretty functional at like the extreme basics, right? When you're just asking a simple factual based question like, 'What is the weather in Raleigh?' it can typically do okay at that."

"I can go play Il America by Wolf Gang Gartner on Spotify and it hears that by Wolf Gang Gartner now playing on Spotify."

"So, I went on Twitter and Threads this past week and asked you guys for your hottest takes and got quite a few of them."

"It's kind of like a nice, cross-platform Airdrop and file sharing app, but it's actually more than just Airdrop because it can do it wherever your devices are. So I can Blip something to someone across the country if they have an account. It's super useful for file sharing, link sharing, all that stuff."

"I also still use Pocket Casts for all of my podcasts on the go. There's a bunch of different podcasts apps, but that's the one I've stuck with."

"CARROT, over on the left is my new weather app of choice. Essentially what CARROT did was clone the Dark Sky layout that made it so good, but then also gave us a whole bunch of customization with other stuff, like weather sources."

"Copilot is a finance tracker app and then Superhuman for email."

"This one here is called Neuecast. I use Pocket Casts most of the time, but Neuecast is one that I found that might replace Pocket Casts for me. It's a really clean layout and just shows me my most recently updated podcasts from all the ones I'm subscribed to."

"What Athlytic does is takes the information from the Apple Watch and from Apple Health, aggregates it all and gives me a lot of that same information that the Whoop would. I like Athlytic."

"Notion is the one that we use at the studio for keeping track of everything."

"You've got Waze, you've got the ChatGPT app, the Google Home app."

"I actually have the Arc Search here, the Arc browser app, which I no longer use on the desktop because they're kind of not paying attention to it anymore. But it is still kind of useful to have mobile sync from a couple of spaces I have set up."

"I use the Raindrop.io app to save links and I use that because the Pocket app also died this year. I used to use Pocket all the time for this and now it's gone. So I use Raindrop.io for the exact same thing."

"I've just been airdropping things back and forth, like pictures, and it's just been working."

"My Pixel 10 can now airdrop to any Apple device I want. So, I just need everyone who has a Pixel 10 to understand that you can AirDrop now. It just works."

"I have been using this phone for a couple weeks now, and there are some things about it that are actually better than a regular phone. I hate to admit it, but also there are absolutely some things about it that are not worth it."

"Ridge's 5-in-1 magnetic power bank. It's what I use, and pretty much everyone at the studio uses one, too."

"The five-in-one power bank keeps selling out and for good reason, I take this thing wherever I go"

"I've been using these for like, the better part of a year now, and I think they're great. They obviously protect the glass and they're super easy to install."
